Chapter 469 I'd do anything for you!
"What does that smell? It smells so good!"
As soon as the children arrived at the entrance of the welfare home, someone exclaimed in surprise.
At the same time, a series of 'gurgling' sounds rang out.
It was obvious that these children had been hungry for the past few days.
Now, as soon as I smell something delicious, my stomach starts growling.
"Children, you must all be hungry. Come and line up for food." At this moment, a group of middle-aged women were already waiting at the entrance of the welfare home.
And the one in the lead was naturally Xiao Yu, one of Xiao Yu's most trusted people!
After all, these children were also highly valued by Xiao Yu.
In terms of overall ability and loyalty to the City Lord's Mansion, Xiaoyu is definitely the most reliable.
Anyway, she was only appointed as the director to manage the welfare home.
The specific tasks do not require her to do them personally, nor do they take much time.
At the entrance of the welfare home, there is a row of long tables with several large iron barrels steaming on them.
The fragrance that the children smelled came from inside.
Upon seeing the children arrive, the women immediately ladled out bowls of soup and placed them on the table.
"Are these... really meant for us to eat?"
I saw chunks of meat floating in ceramic bowls, and green vegetable leaves that I had never seen before.
The children were all shocked, and one of the bolder ones stared wide-eyed and asked.
He had never smelled such a wonderful aroma before.
As long as I can eat a bite, it's worth dying for. At least I can die with a full stomach!
"These are all for you, everyone gets one." Xiaoyu smiled and patted the little boy's head, handing him a bowl of soup and adding, "Drink slowly, there's more if you're not full."
"Thank you." The little boy was really starving.
I've been feeling a bit top-heavy for a while now.
He took it with both hands and drank it down in large gulps.
"Mmm, it tastes so good!" The little boy exclaimed with tears streaming down his face after just one sip.
Because she was worried that the children would eat too quickly because they were too hungry, Xiaoyu had already asked someone to let the soup cool down to lukewarm.
So the little boy wolfed down the food in one go without even noticing how hot it was.
"It tastes so good! It feels so comforting!" At this moment, the other children also picked up their soup bowls and started drinking.
Moreover, this soup is not only delicious, but it also brings a warm energy to the body.
The children didn't know what it was; they only knew that they felt very comfortable all over.
Previously, some children were beaten until they were covered in bruises and felt a burning pain all over their bodies because they resisted violently.
But now, the wound doesn't hurt anymore and is healing rapidly.
This is because these ingredients are all meat from fourth or fifth-tier ferocious beasts.
Moreover, Xiao Yu also added Night-Shining Dew, Bodhi Fruit, and other ingredients to it.
These are all rare and precious natural ingredients that can improve physical condition and repair physical injuries.
"Now that you've eaten your fill, come with us to the bathhouse for a bath," Xiaoyu said with a gentle smile after the children had finished eating and drinking.
The welfare home is a three-story building, and there are three buildings in total.
These include teaching buildings, dormitories, and a canteen, among other living areas.
A moment later, Xiaoyu led the children into the backyard of the welfare home.
There were several large bathhouses, each over a hundred square meters, arranged in two rows, with men on the left and women on the right.
Do you really want to take a shower?
The children stared in astonishment at the large wooden tubs filled with hot water in front of them.
After all, the wasteland world is really short of water.
Therefore, many children grow up without ever having taken a bath.
He was filthy and smelled terrible.
Even Yao Yao, the clan chief's daughter, has only taken a bath a few times.
Until an hour later.
The children emerged from the bathhouse one after another and gathered in the backyard.
The children are completely different now.
Her originally dark skin became fair and even had a rosy glow.
The injured children have mostly recovered after consuming the Night-Shining Dew and Bodhi Fruit.
Everyone changed into clean new clothes.
It was also the first time in my life that I... wore shoes.
Those were shoes unique to Dragon City, with crystal soles and uppers made of animal hides and silk.
Although it was their first time wearing shoes, they were so comfortable that the children didn't feel restricted at all.
I feel much safer on my feet now, and I no longer worry about getting my feet cut while walking.
"Aunt Xiaoyu..."
Yao Yao touched the white dress she was wearing after taking off her clothes, looked at Xiao Yu, and tentatively asked, "Everyone has been so kind to us, what can we do for you?"
Her father was a tribal chief, and she was influenced by him from a young age, which made her mature at a young age.
The little girl thinks more deeply about things than others and doesn't blindly believe in other people's good intentions.
These older brothers and sisters saved them.
They were also given an extremely delicious meal.
Moreover, just washing the mud off their bodies took several buckets of water per person.
Yao Yao felt that such a life was something she wouldn't even dare to dream of.
"The little girl is quite pretty." Xiaoyu looked the girl up and down and smiled with satisfaction.
Yao Yao is twelve or thirteen years old now, and she is the bravest and slightly older of all the children.
She was very pretty, but before she was all dirty, like an ugly duckling.
But now, I'm all clean and white.
Then, wearing a white silk dress, she instantly looks like Snow White.
"The big brother who saved you before is our city lord." Xiaoyu thought that her younger sister had been saying that the work at the city lord's mansion was getting more and more demanding, and she was too busy taking care of the food restaurant to manage both, so she asked Xiaoyu to help find a maid.
This little girl is not only beautiful, but also has bright, expressive eyes, making her a perfect fit.
Going to the city lord's mansion should be able to help the city lord.
"Would you be willing to become a maid in the City Lord's mansion and serve the City Lord?"
"I'm willing! I'll do anything you ask!"
……
On the other side, in a bicycle shop on the commercial street.
"Hello, how much does this bicycle cost?" Sangluo asked.
"Hello, two guests!" Bicycles are now the second most profitable shop in the commercial street, after ice cream shops, so Xiao Yu attaches great importance to them and has added a few more sales clerks.
Upon hearing Sanlo's question, a salesperson glanced at Sanlo and Agatha, wondering who they were and what their relationship was, and asked with a smile, "We have several models of bicycles, each with completely different prices. Which one would you like to choose?"
Although the first generation of bicycles were largely similar.
However, there are still subtle differences in color and style.
There are also differences in size and whether there are seats or not.
The amount of materials used and the difficulty of manufacturing both affect the price of a bicycle.
"This one will do." Sangluo glanced at it casually and pointed to a black bicycle sample.
Every mechanic in the Mechanized City will engrave their own mark on their creations.
The bicycle has white plum blossoms carved on its handlebars.
Those plum blossoms stood out prominently against the all-black frame of the bicycle.
This... is the mark that Aqiu Dongdong's father often uses.
Clearly, the two women want to carry on their father's legacy.
