Chapter 757: Sharon
......
As Wendy walks into the hospital with a box of dinner, she sees Nanawa's father, Tigu Pine, talking to a man and a woman. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The two then bent over and bent their knees, as if they wanted to kneel, but were stopped by Baron Tigus. After a stalemate, the two had to bow a few times before leaving in three steps and two turns.
When they disappeared through the gate, Wendy curiously walked over and asked, "Who are they?"
"Who else, that little ghost's parents. Tigu shrugged, "They didn't worry about the child being left alone in the medical distance, and asked if they could take her home." However, when he learned that it was His Majesty's intention to let her stay here, he immediately changed his mind and thanked His Majesty for his care. When he said the second half of the sentence, his tone was a little regretful, but also with a sense of pride.
Wendy couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Do you think anyone can break into the lord's castle for the sake of their daughter like you?"
She knew what the other party was regretting - probably in the eyes of the baron, even if His Majesty asked for it, he should not give his daughter away easily. When Nanava woke up, Tigu didn't even prepare a letter of visit, so he went straight to Roland's castle. Thanks to the generosity and kindness of the four princes, and the fact that they did not intend to persecute witches at all, this story became a beautiful story, otherwise if it was the mansion of Duke Ryan or the great nobles of the West, Tigu would probably have to suffer enough.
Although this happened before Wendy arrived in Frontiertown, she had heard the Nightingale tell it many times, and it was natural to understand the reason for Tigus's pride.
"Compared to Asha's parents, they are much better. Thinking of this, Wendy sighed softly.
It was also her daughter who awakened to become a witch, and the only thing Ah Xia's family thought of was the salary of the golden dragon, not only eagerly sending her daughter to the door, but also ordering her to respond to His Majesty and the Witch Alliance, and completely regarded Ah Xia as a commodity for sale. If it weren't for the fact that the golden dragon was directly handed over to them, it is estimated that this family would not have allowed Ah Xia to go home to live.
It is because of this completely different attitude that as Asha and her sisters get acquainted, they gradually get used to the free life of living in the witch's mansion, and they go back less and less.
As a witch, she was lucky.
But as a girl, her parents turned their backs on her.
"That's just as well," Tigu nodded, "one of them worked in the furnace area, and the other was a handyman in the construction team, and they didn't know the news until they were busy all day, and they ran over without eating." At least I could feel from the look on my face that they still cared about the little ghost. ”
"Looks like I don't have a white belt for this box of dinner," Wendy smiled, "Can you take me to meet Sharon?"
"Of course, please come with me," Tigu said, stroking his beard.
......
Although the expanded hospital has been set up with a living quarters for patients at the request of His Majesty, few people need to be actually hospitalized. Nanava and Lily have taken care of almost all of Neverwinter's ailments, and most of the patients only need to wait in the hall for a while before they are cured and leave.
The main reason for Sharon to stay overnight in the hospital is to prevent accidents - after all, the influence of the church has not completely faded, and it is unknown whether immigrants from all over the Grey Keep have embraced the idea that witches and ordinary people can live in friendly coexistence. But for now, at least Sharon doesn't have to worry about being poisoned by her family or being homeless.
Arriving at the door of a ward in the living quarters, Tigu pushed open the door and beckoned to his daughter lying on the bedside, "It's time to eat, and we'll talk to friends later." ”
"Aren't we going to eat together?" Nanawa said in surprise, and then she saw Wendy, "Sister Wendy, you're here too." ”
"Well," Wendy smiled and patted the lunch box, "I brought her dinner." ”
"I see," said the little girl, "then you can talk first, and I'll come back later." After saying goodbye to Sharon, she followed her father out of the room.
Wendy walked over to the bed, placed the lunch box on the counter, and turned to make eye contact with the "patient" who was looking at her curiously, "How does it feel to be a witch?"
The girl has very bright short hair, the color of which is like a budding rose, which is quite a rare hair color in the Gray Castle. Her features are still ungrown, and she looks a little green, but as her magic awakens, the witch's appearance will gradually improve. Wendy could already imagine what she would look like as an adult.
"I feel like there's something more in my body...... Miss Nanawa said that it was magic. Sharon pursed his lips and said, "Are you a witch too, does it hurt the first time?"
"Yes, you can call me Wendy," she knew what she was referring to, as ambiguous as it sounded, "and as for the second point, the answer is not necessarily...... But it doesn't matter, as long as you learn how to use it, magic is a part of your body, no different from your hands and feet. Wendy opened the tin box and placed the steaming food on the bedside table.
Sharon swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and her stomach made a series of gurgling sounds at the same time.
Her face flushed.
"Hungry, aren't you?" said Wendy with a smile, bringing the fresh soup made from bird's snout mushrooms to the other party.
The pale yellow soup noodles are filled with a few shallots, and the oil flowers glistening in the light of the stove make the meat smell and the flavor of the soup look particularly attractive compared to the faint green vegetable soup.
In accordance with Her Majesty's practice of holding banquets as soon as she meets a new witch, she has also learned the art of using food to calm people's hearts.
Sharon nodded vigorously twice.
"Warm your stomach with a sip of soup before you eat anything else. Wendy said softly.
Seeing the little girl gobbling up, even she felt a little hungry.
"Where's that buddy of yours?
"I don't know...... I guess," Sharon said as she ate.
"She didn't come to see you?" asked Wendy, surprised.
"......No," the girl shook her head, "after all, I'm from the South, like those who bullied her. She probably hasn't fully believed me, has she?"
"Wait," Wendy couldn't help but be stunned, "you're from the South?"
"yes," she said, putting a slice of bird's snout mushroom into her mouth, "Maple Blossom Town, a small town near Eagle City...... It's just that now it's uninhabitable. ”
"I always thought you and she were both from the east," Wendy was surprised, "that's why you helped her." ”
"Isn't it okay if it's not from the same place?" Sharon blinked and replied seriously, "The disputes of the nobles obviously have nothing to do with her, those guys are just trying to make trouble." It doesn't matter where you were born, what is wrong is wrong, and if I hadn't stood up at the time, no one would have been able to correct the mistake. ”
Wendy was stunned for a while, and it took a while for Wendy to come to her senses.
Perhaps your worries are too much, your majesty, she thought to herself, this child does not need my comfort.
Her eyes made it clear - she was sure of her choice.
