Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 2561: Chapter 2561: Delicious and So Refreshing

The leader of the soldiers looked at their expressions, feeling happy yet also incredibly heartbroken.

If there were another way, why would he let his brothers get so excited over just a little bit of fruit? It’s all this darned heaven’s fault!

But it wouldn’t make sense to blame this wretched heaven, because blaming it is of no use.

“Madam, if you have anything to ask, please go ahead.” Coming back to his senses, he looked at An Jiuyue who was sitting on the bench and hadn’t moved.

“Please sit down and have a cup of tea first.”

An Jiuyue held a cloth in her hand, just about to wipe away the fruit juice on the table.

“Let me, let me. How can I trouble Madam to do this?”

The leader of the soldiers saw this and immediately took the cloth from her, proactively wiping the table.

You’re kidding, she gave them so much fruit, enough for his brothers to quench their thirst, and he would still let her clean the table herself? That wouldn’t be right, would it?

In fact, if it weren’t for keeping up appearances, he’d really want to lick the fruit juice off the table.

In this severe drought, a single drop of water could be lifesaving, not to mention the juice from these fruits. Who wouldn’t be envious upon seeing it?

An Jiuyue didn’t argue with him, extending her hand to pour a cup of tea for the leader of the soldiers.

She only signaled him to sit down after he had cleaned the table, then moved the cup of tea in front of him.

“Drink tea.”

“Okay, okay.”

The leader of the soldiers nodded repeatedly.

Such good tea, he hadn’t had it in who knows how long, possibly couldn’t even remember, let alone at this moment when everyone was drinking raw water, not even daring to boil it.

Because during the boiling process, some water would evaporate, and who would want the water at hand to decrease?

“Delicious, thoroughly quenched my thirst.”

He drank the tea in one gulp, feeling utterly refreshed all over.

“Have another cup.”

An Jiuyue picked up the cup again, wanting to pour more water for him.

“No, no need.”

The leader of the soldiers immediately reached out to stop her.

Who isn’t conserving water these days? He wouldn’t dare to finish all of this lady’s tea; if he did, what would she do afterward?

If she’s handling affairs in the city, lacking water would be impossible.

But An Jiuyue obviously didn’t take his refusal seriously and filled his cup again with tea.

“Madam, you should conserve your tea; once we enter the city, getting water won’t be easy.” He glanced at the teacup, although he wanted to continue drinking, he had to remind her.

In Guangye City it’s still relatively better; they can have water provided, and every household gets one or two buckets daily.

However, further up in the Northern Lands, it’s not so good; every household must rely on the little water they have left, conserving every drop they can.

“Don’t worry, drink up, we still have some water.”

An Jiuyue smiled, signaling him to continue drinking, as she had plenty of water in her space and wasn’t worried about running out for the time being.

Honestly, she didn’t even know where the water in her space came from, it’s just never-ending, and they’ve never needed to worry about water for irrigation.

“Then… then I won’t be polite.”

The leader of the soldiers, hearing this, somewhat embarrassedly looked at the teacup in front of him, then lifted it again and drank the tea dry.

“How many days has it been since it last rained in Guangye City?” An Jiuyue asked after watching him finish the tea.

Upon hearing this, the leader of the soldiers was stunned for a moment.
