The next day, Edith and the two children both woke up very early in the morning.

When they appeared at the school gate again, they had an extra trolley in their hands.

Lucas has already bought all the ingredients she needs.The oven was also done for her, which was actually simple, just soldering an electric shelf.

When we arrived at the school gate, there was still some time before class.Lily took the initiative to help her arrange the ingredients, and Edith bent down and lit the charcoal fire in the stove.

At this time, Victoria, who had already entered the school, came out again, holding a small blackboard with the word "BBQ" written on it.She put the cardboard next to Edith's trolley and said, "This way the students will know that you are a seller."

"Thank you, Victoria." Edith smiled knowingly.

Victoria smiled, glanced at Lily who was in a hurry, and said, "Let me help you put on the string."

Lily arranged the ingredients neatly, Victoria carefully threaded them into skewers, and Edith put the threaded things on the stove to bake.Although she has not received special training, she has done a lot of housework at home over the past year, especially making delicious food for Lily, so her techniques are generally quite proficient.She does not want to make money, but to pass the time, so she will not shoddy, and the ingredients and utensils are clean and hygienic.

After a while, the aroma of food came out.Lily's little greedy cat stared at the meat on the shelf, her eyes were straight.

Edith couldn't help laughing at Lily's greedy look.

"Come on, let's eat." She chose a bunch of meat and brought it to Lily.

"Thank you mom!" Lily took the skewer and took a big bite, oil dripping from the corner of her mouth.Edith took out a tissue and wiped the corners of her mouth for her, then looked at Victoria again: "Do you want some?"

"No, I'm not hungry." Victoria said.For some reason, she seemed a little sad just now.

Mom doesn't need to leave, and Lily doesn't need to leave either. I should be happy.Why, my heart is always uncomfortable.

When Victoria was thinking about it, two skewers of grilled meat were held up in front of her, and she was taken aback.

"Take it in," Edith said.

Victoria thought for a while and took the skewers: "Thank you, auntie."

"Okay, honey, you should go to school with your sister." Edith kissed Lily's cheek, "When school is over in the afternoon, mom will specially leave a few skewers for you, you can eat whatever you want."

"Okay, Mom." Lily said obediently, "Mom, goodbye."

Victoria took Lily's hand and walked towards the school.He glanced back at Edith from time to time, but didn't speak.

The children in elementary school came one after another, and they all smelled the aroma of barbecue.Some parents recognized Edith as Victoria and Lily's nanny, and asked her how she started selling snacks here.According to what she had thought before, she explained to her parents: "My usual job is to take care of two children. I have nothing to do after the children go to school. Anyway, I am idle, so I might as well do some side jobs. Both Lily and Victoria I really like the things I bake, so you should try it too." Victoria gave a bunch to the parents, and another to the children.

"Well, it's really good." After taking a sip, the parent praised sincerely, "If this is the case, then I will support it too. Give me two skewers."

Not long after, several senior students were also attracted.Some people bought meat skewers, while others bought vegetarian skewers.Since this is the first day, the selection of ingredients is relatively small and there are not many types.The meat is mainly pork and chicken, and the vegetarian skewers are mainly tofu.But the taste is very fragrant.

Some students who didn't have time to have breakfast smelled the aroma and bought some for breakfast.Some parents who sent their children to school saw it and bought a few to try it out.In short, until the class bell rang, Edith sold a lot of skewers one after another.

Since becoming a ghost, Edith has not entered human society for a long time.Although he followed his two daughters to the city, he never had a chance to spend money.So she didn't have a clear idea of ​​how much money she made.But looking at the colorful banknotes in the drawer, she felt that she must have earned a lot.

After counting the money and putting it away, she decided to push the cart around.

"Hello, ma'am." Edith walked to the door of a jewelry store, "I would like to ask, what is that?"

"That's a dressing box, the girls like it the most." The boss introduced enthusiastically, "You can take a closer look."

This is a very delicate vanity case in pink and it looks lovely.It contained a mirror, a comb, a brush, and an ivory manicure set.

"Do you have a daughter?" asked the boss. "Buy one for your daughter, she must be very happy."

"Excuse me, how much is it?" Edith knew that everything in human society must be bought with money.

The boss told her a number.

Edith was walking down the street pushing a cart.From time to time, passers-by stopped to buy a skewer or two from her.

That vanity case is really beautiful, but it's also really expensive.Edith wished she had a calculator in her hand and asked her to figure out how many strings she would have to sell to buy it.

When she came home from school, Victoria saw that she seemed preoccupied.Asked her, she didn't say anything.

After finishing all the housework, Edith went out to buy ingredients with his income.That night, she bought twice as many ingredients as the previous day.

"Mom, you bought so many, can you sell them all?" Victoria asked.

"I'll go to more places and go farther, and they will always be sold out." Edith smiled and looked at Victoria.

"Mom, I'll help you clean up." Lily trotted over.

"Let me help too," Victoria said.

"Okay, come on." Edith was very happy.

After sorting out the ingredients, the three of them cleaned the oven and trolley thoroughly together.Then she checked the calendar and circled a date.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Lily asked.

"Honey, it's a secret." Edith patted Lily's head.

Since then, Edith has gotten up earlier every day.After sending the sisters to school, she stood guard at the school gate and sold them.When the class bell rang, she pushed the cart around.Later, she learned that there would be suppers at night, so she often pushed the cart out after putting the two sisters to sleep.

Victoria saw all these actions of hers.But she really didn't understand that Edith never bought anything, and the family didn't need her to subsidize the family, so why did she get up early and stay late?Ask her, she always laughs it off.

One semester passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Edith stopped Victoria.

"What's the matter, Mom?" Victoria asked.

Edith opened the drawer and carefully took out a pink vanity box.

"Happy birthday, Victoria." Edith gave Victoria the dressing box.

It turned out that during those idle days, Edith read all the written things at home.It included the sisters' birth certificates.After seeing that beautiful dressing box, she decided to buy it and give it to Victoria as a gift.

After the age of three, Victoria never had a birthday again.Although Lucas loved her dearly, he was a man after all, and he couldn't think of many things at all.Annabelle had no idea when her birthday was, let alone anything else.

Victoria took the dressing box and opened it carefully.

"Like it, Victoria?" Edith asked.

"I like it very much." The corners of Victoria's eyes were a little wet, and she understood everything, "Thank you, Mom."

"There's still a lot of money left for selling skewers," Edith said, "Why don't we go out for a stroll. If you want to buy anything, let's buy it together."

Victoria was about to speak when Lily flew downstairs: "I want to go too! I want to go shopping with my mother too!"

Shouting, he slipped into Edith's arms.

"Let's go together, Lily." Victoria smiled, and after a while, she said again, "Mom."

"What's wrong?" Edith put her arms around Lily and looked at Victoria.

"You are beautiful now, really." Victoria said seriously.

Edith was taken aback, smiled and said, "Thank you."

After shopping, they came to the mountains. (Edith is very fast)

Lily grew up in the mountains, and has an inexplicable intimacy with the mountains and forests.Suddenly, like a happy bird, he opened his arms and ran quickly.

"Mom," Victoria approached Edith, "Me and Lily, who do you like better?"

Edith was taken aback for a moment, apparently not expecting Victoria to ask this question.However, she looked at Victoria and asked her back, "Victoria, Annabel and Lucas, who do you like best?"

As a mother's heart, she is also jealous, but Edith hides these emotions.She loved Victoria, there was no doubt about it.But as long as she remembered that Victoria was unwilling to go with her at the beginning, but wanted to stay with Lucas and Annabelle, she felt a little cold in her heart.

Sometimes, she had to admit that emotionally she favored Lily.

"Mom..." Victoria wanted to say something.

Suddenly, Lily's screams caught their attention.

"Lily!" The two rushed out at the same time.

When Edith chased Victoria with her arms in her arms, Lily ran straight into her arms: "Mom, help!"

Edith put her arms around Lily and looked up.A huge, strangely dressed man came after Lily, with a weapon in his hand.He held up the ax and slashed towards Edith.

Edith didn't care about hiding his identity, and his hair grew several times in an instant, entwining the man tightly.She herself is immune to all physical attacks, but Victoria and Lily are not.Therefore, she must make a quick decision.

Within moments, the man who attacked Lily was torn to shreds by her hair.

"It's all right, Lily," Edith reassured, "You're safe."

"Let's go back quickly," Victoria said.

"Yes." Edith hugged Victoria with one arm and Lily with the other, planning to leave.

Unexpectedly, Lily suddenly shouted: "Mom, there is another little sister who was also taken away! Go and save her."

"what?"
