Chapter 225: Part-time job (asking for a monthly pass, asking for a subscription) almost can't get out
Mama Teresa's good name not only brought high prestige to the Sprout Church, but also brought a lot of donations, such as Queen Xinbu after hearing about the deeds of Sprout Church, not only gave a large donation to the Sprout Church, but also specially awarded a medal to Sprout Church to reward her decades of good deeds.
So although Mama Teresa is not a pastor, she has a very high status in the Sprout Church. At this time, Liya suddenly heard Mia say that Mama Teresa was sick, and she immediately felt nervous.
"What's going on? Why didn't anyone tell me that Mama Teresa was sick? Is the disease serious? Who gave the treatment? ”
Mama Teresa's status in the church is no worse than that of the archbishop, and it is very unusual for such a person to be sick, and Liya, who is an important person in the church, has not heard any news.
Hearing Liya's questioning, Miya lowered her head a little frightened, and whispered: "It's Mama Teresa who won't let us tell others, she said it's an old problem, just take some medicine, and don't need to be treated with magic magic." ”
When people are old, they will naturally have problems of one kind or another. In fact, magic can't cure these problems, at most it's to alleviate the symptoms, after all, it's caused by the weakening of body functions, magic has no good way to do this, birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, except for the gods, what can other people do.
And most of the magic techniques for treating similar diseases are very advanced, and Mama Teresa thinks that since this is the case, there is no need to trouble those priests who are very busy every day, just take some medicine, and when they are old, half of their bodies are in the ground, and they are cured in vain. I don't want to cause trouble for others anymore and let those pastors help those who need it more.
Speaking of medicine, because of the relationship between divine arts, the medical system on the mainland is not well developed, many doctors are similar to witch doctors, and they are all two knives to see patients, no way, divine magic is so convenient, who will be full enough to study other medical skills. However, those doctors are much cheaper than priests, so many poor families, or those who are not seriously ill, will still seek treatment from doctors.
Moreover, although those doctors have two knives, the treatment effect is actually good for some traumatic injuries or headaches and brain fevers, but for this kind of geriatric disease or internal medicine, their medical skills really have no effect.
Hearing Mia's words, Liya was silent, she knew this old lady too well, she had nothing to say about her good heart, but she was a little too caring for others, and she didn't take herself seriously. For the sake of these lonely and helpless children, they get up early every day and are greedy for darkness. Especially for those children who were born with disabilities among the orphans, Mama Teresa had to take care of them herself, for fear of wronging those children.
According to Mama Teresa, these children are pitiful enough to be abandoned by their parents, and they are disabled, and if she doesn't treat them well, who cares about them?
In order to lighten the burden on the church, this old lady also took some needlework everywhere, or helped people wash clothes, and subsidized the orphanage as much as possible.
is such a respectable old man, who is afraid of bothering others when he is sick, and does not let the children tell him goodbye. Thinking of this, Liya couldn't help but shed tears.
Although Solam also admired this old man, when he saw Liya crying, he felt a little bit like that, what was the use of crying? If you really feel sorry for the elderly, then find a way to really help the elderly, crying and crying.
So he said to Mia, "Then you will run out and sell flowers?" ”
Mia didn't know if it was after the morning's events, and she wasn't too scared of Solam, but she nodded embarrassedly and whispered: "We think that Mama's illness is because she is too tired, so we secretly ran out and took out the flowers in the flower bed in the orphanage and sold them, so that Mama would not have to work so hard and could rest and recuperate." ”
Mia's words moved Christie, who was holding her, to kiss Mia's face everywhere, it was too painful to be so sensible at such a young age, Lance took out a few candies from her dimensional bag, stuffed them into Mia's hand, and kept stroking Mia's little head.
"It's so good, it's so good, Xiao Ya knows how to hurt people at such a young age, it's so sensible, come, my sister rewards you, it's very sweet, eat it quickly." As he spoke, he helped Mia unwrap the candy wrapper on a candy.
Mia was a little embarrassed to eat the candy into her mouth when she saw Lance so enthusiastic, and as soon as the candy was in her mouth, Mia's eyes widened, and it seemed that she had never eaten such a delicious candy. Of course, the children in the orphanage, it is very good to be able to eat a full meal, how can they have the opportunity to eat sugar? Even if they could eat some candy, it would be some low-quality maltose, but even so, these children were already satisfied.
Lance has an extraordinary background at a glance, and the sugar country in her hand is definitely a high-end product, not comparable to those inferior maltose. But even so, when Mia finished eating the candy in her mouth, she didn't continue to eat the candy, she just smiled and glanced at the remaining candy in her hand, and then carefully put the remaining candy in her pocket, and after putting it away, she also carefully patted her own pocket, for fear that the candy would not be put away and fall out.
"Isn't my sister's candy delicious?" Lance asked strangely when she saw Mia's move.
"Delicious!"
"Then why are you going to eat it?"
Mia lowered her head and said embarrassedly: "Such delicious candy, those brothers, sisters, brothers and sisters have never eaten it, I want to bring it back to them to taste." ”
These words moved Lance to hug Mia, and rubbed Mia's dirty little face desperately with her face, and finally made Mia a little embarrassed, so she let Mia go, but when she let go of Mia, Lance couldn't help but kiss Mia fiercely.
"It's so cute, don't be afraid, Mia, sister still has a lot of candy here, just eat it, and then my sister will send candy to those brothers and sisters, younger brothers and sisters, and then say that Mia will send it to everyone."
After saying that, he took out a candy and stuffed it into Mia's mouth, and then took out a large handful of candy and put it in Mia's basket.
"Okay, children don't eat so much sugar at night, it's not good for your teeth, Mia, this sister gave you the candy, okay to keep it for later? If children eat candy at night, they will have tooth decay, you don't want to be like little Carter, right? ”
Liya finally cleaned up her mood at this time, and saw that Lance kept giving Miasse candy, and hurriedly ran over to stop her. And Miya was also very obedient and didn't continue to eat candy, although she still longed for those delicious sweets when she looked like her, but she was sensible and still held back.
Seeing Mia so obedient, Liya happily touched Mia's head, and then asked softly, "What about the others?" Is it okay to take your aunt to them. ”
But as soon as she heard this, Mia lowered her head and stopped talking, in the orphanage, it is not pleasant to make small reports, Miya didn't want to be hated by her brothers and sisters, so she didn't speak, she was afraid that Liya would punish them.
Liya was not angry, she would go to the orphanage to help as long as she had time, and knew the rules of some orphanage children, so Liya could only reason with the facts.
"Mia, you must tell Auntie, where are those brothers and sisters, and now that the city is in such chaos, what if they meet bad people? You don't want those brothers and sisters to have an accident, do you? ”
Mia was a little hesitant when she heard this, although she was not very old, she also knew that there were bad people outside. What if those older brothers and sisters really ran into bad guys? Seeing that Mia was shaken, Liya hurriedly said.
"Mia, don't you want to see that brother or sister again? If those villains will kidnap their brothers and sisters, then Mia will never see those brothers and sisters again, do you want to do this? ”
No matter how sensible Mia is, she is just a child, how can she tell what is the truth, and what scares her. So at this time, she really thought that her brothers and sisters would meet bad people, and for a while, tears fell again.
"Woo...... Mia don't want to see her brother and sister, woo woo......"
"Namiya has to tell Auntie where they are."
In the end, Mia couldn't stand Liya's scare and told them where they would meet, which was an alley next to a restaurant. When Solam and Mia came to the restaurant, there were a few children helping out in the restaurant, in fact, to help clean up the plates, but it was the busiest time of the year, so the money from doing small jobs here was more than selling flowers.
However, not all children can help, although it is a closing stock, but it is also very laborious, so only the older children can come, as for the younger children, they are either selling flowers on the side, or holding some small stools, and helping people shine their shoes outside. However, there are not many children who run as far as Mia, and Liya is relieved to see this.
These little guys also know the severity of the matter, and they know that they have to hold together, and the chance of accidents happening together is much smaller. But Liya also broke out in a cold sweat, this Mia, really, actually ran so far away to sell flowers alone, if it was not good, what if something happened to her?
Thinking of this, Liya glared at Mia fiercely, thinking that this little guy was the most timid, but I didn't expect this little girl to be the most courageous, just now this little girl was still worried that others would meet bad people, but she should be the most worried.
As Mia approached with Lea, a boy was looking around. Soram also knows this kid, the boy who thought Soram was bullying Mia last time, and was the first to rush up and prepare to bump into Soram, but he was too small, and instead threw himself into a fart squat.
The little boy suddenly saw Mia, and ran over with joy for a while, shouting: "Mia, where have you gone?" We're looking for you everywhere, and Sister Lina and Brother Mick are bringing people to look for you, ......"
As a result, as soon as he ran closer, he saw Liya following Mia, and for a while, he couldn't shout the rest of the words.
