Cards are born to be king

When they returned to the dining table, the other children had already served their meals and were sitting obediently on the stools waiting for Jiang Yong to come back.

When Jiang Yong sat down with Ambier, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. After the children glanced at each other, they began to lower their heads and eat quietly, no one said much.Seeing this situation, Jiang Yong thought for a while, but finally said nothing.

From Fei Lian's memory, he learned that Ambier was particularly unpopular in the poorhouse.Fei Lian has always been friendly to him, and others feel bad luck because of Ambier's black hair and black eyes, thinking that he is a child of darkness.

If it wasn't for the kindness of Aunt Winnie, maybe the baby Ambiel would have been thrown into the forest directly.

With a sigh in his heart, Jiang Yong picked up the spoon and stirred today's dinner... baked potatoes, potato curry and potato soup.Immediately I miss the food in the cafeteria.Even if the aunts are full of hand-shaking skills, at least the food is still very good at that time!

"Brother Fei Lian, this is for you."

Finally, Senuo broke the awkward silence.The boy showed a shy smile, and shared the blue egg in his hand with everyone.Each child gets half of one.

"It's a bluetail hen's egg. Aunt Winnie said we could each eat half of one today."

Jiang Yong looked at the egg in his hand. Compared with the big red egg before, it was a little pocket-sized.But in Carter Town, where the food is extremely monotonous, the eggs laid by this blue-tailed hen are already very rare and delicious.Presumably, if Senuo hadn't tested three cards, Aunt Winnie would not have been so generous.

After watching the other children get half of the egg, they all smiled from the bottom of their hearts, and took small bites cherishingly.Jiang Yong felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. He peeled off the light blue egg shell and put the egg in his mouth.

"There are a lot of people collecting blue-tail eggs in the city now. The Evans Chamber of Commerce is buying these eggs recently. I heard that they will hire children to collect eggs from every household."

A little boy with blond hair said after eating curry with his mouth full and contentedly swallowing an egg.

"It seems that there is a big man who likes to eat this kind of eggs, so now many chefs are collecting eggs to practice their skills."

"Hey, I know about this too! Didn't the rye that harvested rabbit skins change to harvest eggs? He changed careers early, and I heard that he has earned a lot of star coins! I don't know how long that big man will come, I wish he had stayed longer."

The children in the poorhouse didn't have so many restraints, and chatted enthusiastically while eating.Jiang Yong slowly ate the curry on the plate, while thinking about the information about the backtracking potion he found in the library.Suddenly, a spoonful of curry was added to his plate.

Jiang Yong raised his head in doubt, and found that it was Ambier who gave him an extra meal.Subconsciously showing a smile at the black-haired boy, Jiang Yong scooped up a spoonful of curry with rice and was about to put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, he saw several orange objects in the spoon.

Hey... carrots are the last thing he likes to eat.

Subconsciously, he picked all the carrots aside and piled them up into a mountain of small carrots.Jiang Yong ate the leftover curry, his thoughts diverged.By the way, what do owls eat, like mice?But this one of mine is not an ordinary owl, and I don't know if it eats carrots or not.No, where did that little guy go?

After thinking about it, he suddenly found that the little guy squatting on top of his head was no longer there.Jiang Yong's heart skipped a beat, but at this moment, he suddenly heard the little blond girl sitting at the corner of the table say:

"Hey Ambier, why did you give Brother Fei Lian so many carrots. Didn't he never eat carrots, it's a good thing you are still so close to him."

Hearing what the girl said, Jiang Yong was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly some cold sweat broke out on his back.He subconsciously looked at the black-haired boy sitting next to him.At this moment, Ambier is quietly planing rice, looking like an inconspicuous plant.But after all, Jiang Yong has a ghost in his heart, and he can't help thinking too much at this time even though he usually has a big heart.

I don't know if this kid is testing himself, but the more nervous he is, the calmer Jiang Yong is.Even when his heart is jumping up and down in his chest and dancing samba, he can't change his face.At this moment, Jiang Yong felt a little rejoiced. Fortunately, he didn't like to eat carrots, otherwise he would have to reveal his stuffing directly.

"Aunt Winnie just bought a lot of carrots this year, saying it was cheap."

Sen Nuo took up the topic, and he glanced at Ambier, who was eating with his head down, then turned his head and made a playful grimace at Jiang Yong:

"I heard that the card selection ceremony will be postponed for a month. Brother Fei Lian can only bear with these carrots. The food will definitely be much better when we go to the Star Academy!"

Nodding absent-mindedly, Jiang Yong finished the curry steak in a few mouthfuls.Because of the delay for so long before, it was already very late after they had finished eating.There are no recreational facilities in Carter Town, so everyone went back to sleep after eating and chatting for a while.But lying on the bed, Jiang Yong couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

In winter, the children sleep in Datong bunk, and Jiang Yong is a little blond boy, who has long been snoring from sleep.The other side was supposed to belong to Amber, but now the bed was empty.Thinking of what happened at the previous dinner, Jiang Yong's feelings for Ambier became much more complicated.

He wished he could knock open the boy's brain to see what he was thinking, but after all, Jiang Yong was not a roundworm in his stomach, so his heart could only hang like this.Lie on the bed bored for a while again, Jiang Yong saw heavy snow falling outside, a piece of silvery white through the blurry ice light.Looking at the empty quilt next to him, Jiang Yong finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Damn it, where did the kid go when he didn't sleep at night in such a cold weather?"

He muttered, pulled out his hair irritably, and finally sat up.Wrapped in a padded coat, Jiang Yong knew that he had bad intentions in doing so, but his long-term experience as a volunteer in an orphanage and his childhood memories made him seem indifferent, but his heart was actually very soft.

Holding a broken oil lamp, Jiang Yong wrapped himself in a ball and opened the door into the snowstorm.

Wearing ill-fitting riding boots and wading through the knee-high snow, Jiang Yong found Ambier in the confinement room without much effort.The black-haired child was sitting under the dim kerosene lamp sewing clothes at the moment, and his thin body shrank into a ball unconsciously.

Because of the color of Ambier's hair and eyes, no townspeople are willing to donate money for his life.So Amber has been doing a lot of chores since she was able to walk, so that she can live in the poorhouse.No matter what, at least there is a bed and food here, and he won't be beaten half to death and thrown into the forest for no reason.

Seeing that the child was still sewing at such a late hour, Jiang Yong laughed angrily.He stepped forward in two steps and grabbed the boy's face severely.Amber, who hadn't reacted yet, had a rare look of confusion on her face, and her black eyes looked extraordinarily bright.

"What are you sewing, you can survive without sleep at this late hour!"

After pinching Ambier's face, Jiang Yongcai found that the child's face was a little bluish, and it was as cold as ice.There was nothing to keep warm in the confinement room, obviously the little guy must have been frozen to death.Thinking of this, in the end it was worry that overwhelmed the previous apprehension.Jiang Yong wrapped a cloak around Ambier's body, and forced him out of the confinement room.

During this process, Ambier has been very quiet.Stumbling and walking in the snow, he looked at the figure in front of him from time to time, the same thin figure blocked all the wind and snow for him.The boy's dark eyes sparkled like stars.

Jiang Yong led him all the way into the house, and after closing the door, he patted the snow off Ambier's body at the door.He took off the boy's clothes neatly and stuffed him under the bed.

"Hurry up and go to bed, it's already midnight."

Lie on the bed as well, Jiang Yong muttered.It wasn't until seeing Ambier looking at him quietly with those eyes that Jiang Yong suddenly realized what he had just done.Coughing in embarrassment, he pulled the corners of his mouth a little stiffly, watching the boy finally have some blood on his cheeks, his eyes softened unconsciously.

Jiang Yong rubbed Abier's hair vigorously again, and suddenly said something out of nowhere.

"You don't have to think about what other people think, your black hair looks good, and I like it."

I yawned, and sleepiness finally pervaded me.Jiang Yong didn't see Abier burying her head halfway in the quilt, her eyes flickering.Consciousness gradually fell into chaos, half asleep and half awake, Jiang Yong felt someone poking him persistently.He opened his eyelids sleepily, only to see a pair of bright black eyes.

"Brother Fei Lian, this is for you."

Ambier said in a very low voice, and gave Jiang Yong a small stone from the quilt.Yawning, Jiang Yong didn't know what he had stuffed for himself.All I saw was the boy's eyes rolled, revealing his first pure smile.

"Brother Fei Lian hasn't changed, it's great."

Amber wrinkled her nose, and hid half of her face behind the quilt, only showing a pair of eyes.He said shyly:

"You never touch my hair...but I like it very much. Brother Fei Lian's palm is very warm."

The black-haired boy emphasized seriously, he closed his eyes in peace, and his voice became lower and lower.

"Only Brother Fei Lian would look for me in the middle of the night...and only Brother Fei Lian said that he liked my hair... Brother Fei Lian hasn't changed, it's great...I'm so scared..."

Amber finally fell asleep peacefully.But Jiang Yong's spirit was completely awake. Looking at the child's sleeping face, he felt Abier's cold little hand stretching out from under the bed, grabbing the corner of his clothes with attachment.Unconsciously, Jiang Yong's back was covered in cold sweat, and he let out a deep breath secretly.

My mom turned out to be missing stuffing here, it's really scary!

Jiang Yong was afraid of thinking about it in his heart, and couldn't help crying.

I'm so frightened too. I've been on tenterhooks all night, and I'm about to have a heart attack from your kid.

Jiang Yong didn't expect this kid to be so sharp, but fortunately, he didn't show any tricks behind him, and it seems that he has already passed the circle now.But it also made him more vigilant.

Jiang Yong didn't sleep at all tonight, and carefully read Fei Lian's original memory from beginning to end, completely becoming his own.And this in-depth analysis also changed Jiang Yong's thinking.

Although he has traveled here for several days, in fact Jiang Yong did not really regard himself as a person here.He was always thinking about how to get back.But in fact, the world is not safe, and no one is a fool.If this continues, he will never be able to truly adapt to life here.

'Oh, I am Fei Lian, and Fei Lian is me.I am Fei Lian...'

Muttering in his mouth, Jiang Yong finally realized the seriousness of this matter.He is determined to correct his mentality and earnestly survive in this world.In this way, he strengthened his thoughts while scrolling through Fei Lian's memory, until the square bell struck five times, and Jiang Yong fell asleep in a daze.

This sleep took a long time, and Jiang Yong was a little dizzy, and his brain began to ache again.His eyelids trembled restlessly, as if he would wake up at any moment.And in a blur, Jiang Yong smelled a faint smell of disinfectant.

Um?Disinfectant?

Feeling that he was about to fall into a dark sleep again, Jiang Yong struggled in his heart, and finally opened his eyes with all his strength.At the beginning, the white light was a bit dazzling, and I couldn't get used to it for a while.After a while, Jiang Yongcai finally opened his eyes completely.

He yawned, sat up and stretched.But as soon as his arm reached halfway, Jiang Yong froze.

Clean white walls, a faint smell of disinfectant.The low-level service robot next to the bed flashes red light, and small household aircraft fly by from time to time in the morning light outside the window.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Jiang Yong rubbed his eyes in disbelief, almost petrified into a humanoid sculpture, and the next moment there was a creaking sound of the door being pushed open, followed by a 'bang' of a heavy object falling to the ground.The man yelled in surprise.

"Damn Jiang, you're finally awake!"
