Chapter 195: Poor Tea Service
Faced with the problem of paying money to purify other people’s familiars, Aqua chose to remain calm.
"Hey, money makes a goddess brave. Now that I have no money, I can even turn a blind eye to the devil."
Aqua sighed.
“You deserve a beating like this. If you weren’t addicted to top-notch wine and always spending money randomly, just the potion dividends Broly gave you would have cost an ordinary person twenty without eating or drinking. After many years, I can barely make enough money.”
Darkness clenched her fists, wanting to punch Aqua in the head, who didn't have the best intentions.
"People are poor and have short ambitions, and gods are poor and have short ambitions. Lady Aqua, you'd better accept the fact."
Wiz persuaded her from the side. She can quite understand. Kuya's feeling now is similar to the time when her magic item shop had a financial deficit, but when she saw a magic item that made her excited outside, she didn't dare to buy it.
"The guests are all poor, but they don't know how poor they are. Why do they come to Xiaomi's house to find Xiaomi's father?"
Xiaomi listened and understood this group of people. She was not a thief, but she asked in a childlike manner.
Aqua, Darkness, and Wiz: "..."
In this home that can almost be described as a bare house, why is it that the little girl in front of me can be so logical when calling them poor? Say this?
"Little sister, poverty is a thing of the past. Now my sister is not poor. She came to your father to do business."
Weiz said.
“Oh, sister, you are the one being taken advantage of, no, you are the distinguished guest who brought charity to our family!”
Xiaomi suddenly understood and immediately ran to the kitchen to prepare tea, preparing to entertain the distinguished guests at home on behalf of his parents.
"Hey, little sister, did you say something strange just now?"
Darkness asked.
“Hey, what are you talking about?”
“That’s what you said about calling this sister a victim.”
Darkness reminded.
"What are you talking about, this very resistant sister?"
Xiaomi blinked and looked like "I don't know what you are talking about, sister", and just pretended to be dumbfounded. stand up.
"What a clever child, but why does he regard the devil as his contracted familiar?"
Aqua was a little confused about this, but she looked towards the shrinking one. Body shape, followed by the devil in this home.
"No, you guy, don't look at me like this. I don't know anything."
Horst also doesn't know why Xiaomi wants to make himself a familiar. They are demons in this world. Not a very good reputation.
“Here comes the tea~”
Not long after, Xiaomi, who was busy in the kitchen, came out carrying a tray.
“Dear guest, please have tea~”
The girl respectfully placed a cup of water with some tea foam in front of Wiz, and then handed another clay cup to the others.
However...
"Hey, this is just ordinary water, right?"
Aqua looked carefully at the liquid in the tea cup in her hand, and found that it was just Ordinary water has nothing like tea leaves, so I just shouted it out.
“That’s right, our family is relatively poor, so the limited tea in our family is only provided to distinguished guests who bring charity to our family.”
Xiaomi said seriously, and from the fact that there were no tea leaves in the tea she poured for herself and Host, it could be seen that what she said was not false.
"Aqua-sama, if you want to drink tea, how about I give you some?"
Wiz interjected, and she didn't expect that she was the only one who didn't need to drink. Instead, the lich received the only tea in the room.
Aqua was not polite and took the cup of tea in front of Wiz as if she still knew what was going on.
“Uh, what kind of tea is this?”
But after taking a sip, Aqua's brows furrowed. "It's the best tea in my family."
Xiaomi answered this question without hesitation. However, there is only one kind of tea in her family, which is cheap tea made from tea chips.
The tea brewed from this tea does not taste moist, but also has a tingling feeling when drinking it. For Aqua, who has never had a hard life since she came to this world, it is indeed... That's a bit hard to swallow.
“What’s wrong, Aqua, what’s wrong with this tea?”
Darkness came over and asked.
“Drink it and see for yourself.”
Aqua handed over the tea in her hand, and Darkness took a sip, but she quite liked it.
“It’s a little rancid, it’s old tea that hasn’t been stored well, and it tastes like swill.”
Darkness looked like she was having an afterthought, which made Aqua’s mouth twitch. smoke.
"Although I knew that Mr. Pyozaburo's family was poor, I didn't expect that his family was so poor."
Witz was also a little embarrassed.
Broly just leaned over and smelled the tea, then raised his head and frowned.
"What are you going to eat for lunch?"
After he came to his senses, he asked the little girl next to him.
"It's the leftover roasted sweet potatoes from last night!"
Xiaomi replied.
"What did you eat in the morning?"
Broly asked again.
“It’s gruel. You can see the gruel at the bottom of the bowl. I drank two big bowls of millet.”
Xiaomi looked like he could eat children.
“Well, I didn’t expect you to have such a hard life~”
Host said with emotion, this is almost like some hungry people.
"It's almost noon. We're going to have dinner. Do you want to come with us?"
Broly asked.
"Xiaomi has to look after the house, and Xiaomi has no money."
The little girl could see that she wanted to go with her, but when she checked the pockets in her skirt, she found them empty.
She was short of money and wanted to fill her stomach, so she usually went to the forest to find food. She used to look for it with her sister, but now that her sister has gone to school, she is alone.
"Let Him take care of the house, and having no money is not a problem, because I'm treating you."
Broly pointed at the devil and said this.
"Eh?"
Xiaomi's eyes widened and she looked at the boy in disbelief.
“So Xiaomi can eat delicious food without spending money?”
“Yes, but the prerequisite is that there is a delicious restaurant in this village.”
“Onisankami sama, you are such a super kind person.”
Xiaomi rubbed his hands together and made a praying gesture to Broly, still praising him.
"Xiaomi knows which restaurant is the best in the village. Xiaomi can take you there. Host, I leave the housekeeping task to you. I will take this kind brother to the restaurant to eat. After finishing the meal, Xiaomi will be back soon."
Xiaomi stood up and gave this order to his familiar. He turned to look at Broly and stood at attention, sipping his saliva and continuing to report.
"Xiaomi is ready and can eat at any time. Oh no, I am taking Brother Shanren to the best restaurant in our village for dinner!"
