Chapter 224 Peppermint Tea Have you ever heard of the Land of Sin?
After a day of patrolling, Bebero hummed a song as she flew towards her treehouse.
"Mommy Luo, Mommy Luo! You're back!"
"Grandma made leaf soup and leaf pancakes today!"
"What? That's moss soup and moss cakes!"
The tiny flower fairies, like vibrant buds sprouting from branches, crowded together on the treehouse terrace.
Bebelo greeted her with a smile: "I'm back!"
These three children were adopted by Bebelo. The terrible drought had claimed the lives of countless flower fairies, and the residents of Lilac Town were not spared, including her childhood friend, the silent and reliable Totoko. However, three of his four children survived and, along with the surviving townspeople, came to the Land of Sin. After discussing it with her mother, Bebelo took all three children home.
Beibeiluo had met Totoko's wife, Mengmengya. At that time, she hadn't gone blind yet. She was a cheerful flower fairy who loved to laugh. When she flew with Totoko, who always had a stern face, they were like the front and back of a leaf. However, Mengmengya's health was not good. Not long after giving birth to her fourth child, she fell ill with a fever and died.
The eldest of the three children inherited Mengmeng's off-white long hair and orange-yellow eyes, while the other two children have the same dark blue long hair and brown-gray eyes as Toto. When they first came, they were all very reserved, but now they are all lively and active, and they all seem to have inherited their mother's personality.
The three children were all in poor health, but thanks to the free children's meals provided by the Land of Sin, their pale complexions gradually regained their color thanks to the abundant magical energy they received.
The moss soup mentioned by the children is actually a magic potion soup. Among the commoners who moved to the land of sin, there are many flower fairies who are professional soup makers. They are very good at cooking this kind of delicious soup that has certain medicinal effects but no medicinal taste. Ya Ya Lian specially learned a few soup recipes that are suitable for nourishing children's bodies.
Yaya Lian, now a senior deacon under the Orderly Officer, had just finished her shift and was making dinner without even changing out of her uniform. She was placing the freshly cooked moss soup on the table when she saw her daughter fly in. The riverside fairy smiled and greeted her, "We have a new drink today too!"
Beibeiluo couldn't help but laugh: "Was it made by the Flower Fairy?"
“Haha! Yes, it’s the new mint tea that Fairy Flower made,” Ya Ya Lian replied while ladling soup into the children’s bowls. “Fairy Flower really is afraid of the heat. The service officers are already trying to adjust the menu. I’m also going to contact the construction officers to see if we can do some simple renovations to the Flower Castle.”
"Renovating the Flower Castle? That sounds like a huge project." As she spoke, Beibeiluo flew over to help her mother serve the meal, and then went to get her house robe from the closet.
Watching her mother hang her changed-off butler uniform in the closet, Beibeiluo flew around the tall elf with a hint of envy: "When will I be able to receive the blessing of the Flower Fairy? I also want to obtain noble status. Mom, your magic fluctuations are so much stronger than before!"
"There are still three more harvest months to go, Beibeiluo. After that, you will have worked for the Land of Sin for three years and will be eligible for the Flower Fairy's blessing." Yaya Lian reached out and lifted the flower fairy, placing her in front of the dining table. Remembering something, the fairy gave her daughter a warning look: "If you join the guard team again next harvest month, I'll have to ask the military officer for permission to go to the front lines to keep an eye on you, okay?"
"What is nobility? I want to be a nobleman too! If I were, I could be as tall and great as my great-grandmother!"
"I want one too! I want to be as tall and big as my great-grandmother!"
"We need to be as tall and big as Mama Luo first!"
The children chattered excitedly, picked up their smooth wooden bowls and sipped the hot, sweet soup. Then they took thick slices of fragrant, soft acorn bread, took a big bite, and chewed it heartily. After swallowing it happily, their great-grandmother pushed over a refreshing water spinach salad sprinkled with mint.
Beibeiluo first tried the mint tea her mother had brought back. The clear, transparent tea, fresh mint leaves, and ice cubes exuded a refreshing coolness. After pouring in a few spoonfuls of moss syrup and stirring well, the sweet and rich mint aroma became even more invigorating. She took a small sip and comfortably closed her eyes.
After having eaten their fill, the little flower fairies soon became sleepy. After saying goodnight to Mother Luo and Grandmother, they flew into the bedroom hand in hand.
Each child has their own little waterbed, with a soft water pillow as their pillow and a light straw blanket as they lie on. In the veil of darkness, someone sniffs and whispers, "Mom will definitely love today's green salad..."
"Dad will like it too, but he'll definitely prefer acorn bread..."
"I wonder what my little sister will like to eat... She'll probably only be able to drink sweet soup, since her teeth haven't been in for very long..."
The moonlight outside the window flowed slowly down the cheeks of the young child, forming a quiet and sorrowful river.
The Ganar River flows quietly, gurgling and splashing.
Suddenly, waves arose out of nowhere on the calm, shimmering water. Along with the splashes and the gust of wind, there were also faint spatial fluctuations. The next moment, several small figures flew out from the waves. The moonlight illuminated their translucent fairy wings and their panicked expressions.
The fairies scrambled ashore in a sorry state, looking around in shock before finally settling down in the quiet night.
They lay on the ground, soaking wet, panting for a while. After calming the boiling magic around them and regaining some strength, they got up and began to explore their surroundings.
"This is—by the Goddess of Gold! This is the Garnar River!" The wind sprite with a broken antenna on its head exclaimed in shock upon recognizing its surroundings, "How did we end up in Garnar?!"
The water sprite, whose wings were both tattered and torn, was enduring the pain when she heard her companion's words. She was furious: "I'm lucky to be alive! I'm a water sprite, and I'm not good at teleportation magic!"
“No, no, no, Dedemarin, I don’t think Barbaria is blaming you,” the wind sprite, who was also in poor condition and pale, quickly intervened to mediate. “I think he means that we didn’t plan to participate in the Wind Market this year. We don’t have entry permits, and we will be expelled by the patrolmen of Ganar.”
Another wind sprite, whose arms hung limply at his sides, snapped out of his daze and habitually raised his smile: "Oh, guys, don't be so discouraged. We survived, didn't we? As for the issue of Ganar's entry permit, it's not insurmountable. Have you heard of the Land of Sin?"
