"Put less salt. I'll give these two fried eggs to my brother later."
"Fan lightly, the soup will be gone. Are you here to cause trouble?"
"Just throw away the rest of the food. It's not like we don't have money, so be careful not to spoil your stomach."
"Only the white sugar cake cannot be shared. What's mine is mine. Everything you see is mine!"
In the next three days, the entire courtyard became extremely lively due to Lulu's appearance. Liuhua and she stayed in the kitchen every day, just like sisters.
However, Lulu seems to have no talent for cooking. She either burned the milk today or chopped the good sauce meat into mince.
As the logistics minister in the small courtyard, Rikka naturally couldn't bear this. She closed the kitchen door fiercely and pushed Lulu directly to Boom.
However, Boom is far worse than Rikka. He doesn't know how to take care of people, let alone a cute little cutie like Lulu. So the conversation between the two seems very awkward, and there is a tendency for it to end in silence.
"I am a magician, and you are a priest. We are both magic users." Boom said with a smile.
"Well, it's quite a coincidence." Lulu looked at Boom with a smile and replied softly.
"Are you going to drink ale? Rikka bought this from the market. It tastes very good." Boom said again.
"No, I am a priest who serves the gods and cannot drink alcohol." Lulu shook her head and replied with a smile.
"Then would you like some hot tea? Good stuff from the Whispering Forest." Boom put down his wine glass awkwardly.
"Drinking tea can cause insomnia, that's what Sister Liuhua said." Lulu shook her head again.
A coldness appeared in the room out of thin air. Boom opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. These were the only topics he could talk about. Could it be that he wanted to talk about the misery of the dark night?
Lulu, on the other hand, always maintained her smiling look, her clear eyes always looking at Boom, like a little girl who had met her idol.
Creak! The door was slowly opened by Rikka, and Boom suddenly stood up to greet him, even with some tears in his eyes. Rikka, who looked confused, took a step back in a hurry, staring at Boom as if he was mentally ill.
During the dinner, the laughter of Rikka and Lulu hovered in the air, while Boom tore into the bread in distress. The candlelight swayed slightly, and the noise in the high court disappeared.
"I didn't expect that Brother Boom was not good at talking to others. This is really surprising." Lulu took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile.
"Magicians are probably like this. If there were no family, my brother would probably have starved to death." Liuhua chewed the white sugar cake and said carelessly.
"What's interesting? I call it deep. Do you understand deep? It's the basis of temperament and self-cultivation." Boom quietly took away a small piece of white sugar cake. This move made Liuhua very dissatisfied.
"I understand, if one day my brother doesn't want to practice anymore, let's build a monastery. I'll be a nun, and my brother will be the mute caretaker." Rikka laughed loudly, and finally fell to the ground.
Lulu, who was always silent, kept looking at the two of them. Although she didn't understand these things, she was infected by the joyful atmosphere.
Sitting in the utility room, Lulu, who had returned to her spirit body, was floating in the air. She was looking forward to tomorrow, but she didn't want time to fly by so fast.
The low chanting of holy scriptures echoed in the utility room. Lulu clutched the angel statue on her chest and prayed devoutly to the gods.
"I hope the gods can bless Boom and Rikka, I hope they will be happy every day, and I hope they will always get what they want."
The morning light came quietly, through the dusty glass window, turning Lulu's spirit body into reality. Today, Rikka still went out early, and Boom was stretching in the yard as usual.
Lulu, who was standing by, followed suit, but when Boom saw this, he shook his head helplessly. After these days of contact, although Boom still couldn't figure out the other party's details, he knew the other party.
Some habits.
Lulu is a very simple person. Every day she either sits in the utility room and prays to the gods, or is dragged into the market area by Rikka.
She has no hobbies, nor any plans. In addition to often imitating her and Rikka's behavior, she just sits quietly beside them with a smile.
Although Boom was suspicious of Lulu, he didn't hate it. This feeling was very strange. Boom asked Rikka, but what he got in exchange was a row of teeth marks on his arm.
Because of the astonishing prices in Highgarden, Rikka often goes to Nightingale Grassland. Today's breakfast seemed a bit simple, and there were only Boom and Lulu at the wooden table.
Wash the dishes and wipe the table. After finishing these things, Lulu sat on the bed again, while Boom had already started practicing.
As a senior priest, she naturally knew the opportunities during cultivation, so Lulu chose to lean on the bed and read Rikka's novels.
But her eyes drifted towards Boom from time to time, as cautiously as a thief. Time passed by, and Boom had no intention of stopping, and Lulu naturally remained motionless.
After noon, Lulu quietly walked out of the room, the iron spout squeaked, and a handful of tea leaves stood in the clay cup. This was hers on the Rikka Expressway, and Boom had the habit of drinking tea in the afternoon.
Sure enough, when Lulu opened the door again, Boom also stopped practicing. The two sat on the stone steps, drinking tea and chatting.
"How is it? Are you still used to living in Highgarden?" Boom asked with a smile.
"It's the same everywhere. If I hadn't met you, I would have been guarding the trash can." Lulu replied softly, her tone without a hint of sadness and full of energy.
"If you have the opportunity in the future, go and treat the nobles, so that you can be independent." Boom sighed and said helplessly.
"Brother and Sister Rikka are leaving? I don't want to live alone." Lulu looked at Boom eagerly, turning a blind eye even as the hot tea spilled on the back of her hand.
"Rikka is a person who likes to hang out. One day we will leave Highgarden." Boom said, got up, returned to the room, and started practicing again.
Warm sunshine fell from the sky, and the yard was very quiet. No one was talking and there was no loud noise. A faint wave of magic power emerged behind her, and Lulu stared blankly at the blue sky.
Tears were like floods bursting from a dam, wetting her gray linen hood and the bluestone floor, eventually flooding every ant nest.
However, Lulu suddenly thought of something. She saw her hands clasped against her chest, and a smile appeared on her face again. Picking up the novel, leaning against the bed, Lulu tried her best to look at Boom not far away, and tried her best to look at him.
The appearance is imprinted in my heart.
However, there was once again a crack in her body. But except for Lulu, who was the party involved, no one noticed this abnormality.
In the sunset, Rikka returned to the small courtyard a little tired. Today she killed three high-level warriors. Although she gained a lot, the consumption was also extremely huge.
Seeing this, Lulu returned to the utility room in the name of prayer. Through the glass window, she could see Boom anxiously feeding the medicine while scolding him in a low voice.
"If I hadn't been kidnapped, my brother would have been so nervous about himself." Tears slowly fell to the ground. Lulu wanted to stay in that room, but she couldn't expose her identity.
