The two of them had a very happy time.
Speaking of which, this was the first Christmas for Ross and Urrutia. They met at the beginning of this year. Ross felt sorry for Urrutia because they didn't spend the first Christmas together after bringing his daughter home.
The old man was not worried. Although they were not there, the people in the guild could spend the Christmas together. There might be some preference, but Makarov really treated the members of the guild as children, even Gildarts. Isn't there a saying? No matter how old a child is, he is still a child in the eyes of his parents.
Ross left Laxus in Rosemary Village to guard him. Laxus couldn't take him. Laxus was a little bit road-shy. It was okay for him to come out by himself. If he couldn't find it, he could just turn into an arc and fly around. But it was obviously not possible to take someone with him.
I took Urrutia, Erza, Kagura and Simon to the nearest town. The supplies for the past three months were purchased in this town.
This was the first time Erza and the other three had seen a town. The academy they attended was just in a village.
Ross first took them to buy clothes as Christmas gifts. There was nothing to choose from in this small town. It was good to have something to buy.
Urrutia had noticed that Erza didn't have many thick clothes before. As the weather was getting colder, Urrutia gave her her clothes. Erza was a little shorter than her, but not much.
After buying clothes, they also went to buy sweets. Erza now has the shadow of a future sweets control. She doesn't like chocolate like Urrutia, but likes sweets, but she especially likes cakes and soufflé. She is not very picky about taste for the time being. Ross didn't see any inclination for Kagura for the time being. Ross bought some gingerbread men to add a little Christmas atmosphere.
The ingredients were carried by the four people. Ross carried a Christmas tree, some ribbons and lights. Although it was simple, the sense of ceremony was indispensable.
Back in the village, Ross went to pick up some dry and long wood, which was everywhere at this time of year, and he prepared to build a bonfire.
At the door of the house, Ross tied the top of the firewood with a thin rope, and then inserted the other end of the wood into the ground, piled a few stones around to fix it, and placed the Christmas tree with the bottom directly on the side.
In the room, Laxus was helping them decorate the room. They were not tall enough, and they had to ask Laxus to make the ribbons on the windows and doors. Erza and Kagura felt that Laxus was quite kind when he was helping.
After Ross built the bonfire, he went into the kitchen and didn't care about them decorating the room. There were two stoves in the kitchen, and Ross started to cook rice on one.
"Kagura, I want to help." Kagura stood outside the kitchen, with her head sideways and her hands on the side of the door. They didn't ask Kagura to help when they decorated the room. Kagura was at a loss in the room. When she saw Ross enter the kitchen, she planned to come in and take a look.
The weather was too cold. Ross had asked Laxus to boil the water. Ross tested the water temperature and found it was not cold. He lowered his head and smiled at Kagura and said, "Okay, Kagura, how about helping me wash the vegetables?"
Children from poor families grow up early. Although they can't cook, Kagura can wash vegetables without Ross teaching her. She nodded. "Okay."
Ross first marinated two chickens and added various spices. He put the seasoning aside and planned to wrap them with tin foil and soil and throw them into the campfire to roast.
Then he processed the fish. Although the merchant had already processed it, he still planned to scrape the scales off the fish and wash it. He didn't want to eat the scales while eating. That would be a bad feeling. This kind of fish has no bones. There are many children. He specially picked this kind of fish and reminded them to be careful when eating.
As for the fish, he planned to make grilled fish. He also added ginger, cooking wine, cumin, salt, etc. to marinate the fish and put the fish aside.
"Washed." Kagura put the vegetables in a basin and brought it over.
"Thank you Kagura, help me catch the fish back and forth, hold it for a little longer." Ross pointed to the fish on the side. In fact, it would be fine if he didn't hold it for so long, but Ross couldn't stand Kagura looking at him eagerly.
Heat the oil in the pan first, stir-fry the onion and minced garlic, bean paste and chili sauce. There is no hot pot base here, what a pity, Ross thought while frying.
After frying, add water, pour the side dishes in and cook them, then take them out. The base can be boiled again to reduce the water.
Taking advantage of this time, Ross went out first to put the two wrapped chickens on the weeds and firewood under the campfire, and ignited the weeds. Soon the dry firewood was also ignited, and the house was dyed red.
"Kagura, give me the fish." Ross returned to the kitchen and looked at the one who was concentrating on catching the fish.
Kagura of fish.
The fish was split in half, marinated and fried on both sides until golden brown, then placed in the tin foil box used to hold the fish, and the base and side dishes were put in. Two alcohol lamps were placed underneath when eating, and the temperature of the grilled fish and side dishes could be guaranteed. This was too heavy, so Ross did not let Kagura carry it. Kagura stood there waiting for his instructions.
Ross fried two more plates of meat and two plates of vegetarian dishes, and asked Kagura to take them out first, and then he took the grilled fish out himself.
Light the two alcohol lamps and put the tin foil box containing the grilled fish on the shelf.
"Okay, we can eat first." Don't worry about the grilled chicken, just leave it there, open the door and watch the bonfire.
Simon, Laxus's room is almost ready. Laxus even hangs ribbons on the roof, and the sense of ceremony is full.
At this time, Urtia and Erza were decorating the Christmas tree that Ross had casually placed outside, hanging colorful lights on the Christmas tree, and inserting a small star with lights on the top.
"Hurry up and wash your hands." Ross saw that they didn't respond, so he shouted again. Now they reacted, and Laxus took them to the well outside to fetch water to wash their hands.
"Kagura, come and help me." At this moment, only Kagura's hands were clean, and Ross took Kagura to serve the rice first.
When they came back from washing their hands, the rice was already on the table, "The table is not big, everyone squeeze in."
Ross and Laxus took up a large area and occupied one side each, Urtia and Erza sat on one side, and Kagura and Simon sat on the other side.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Urtia and Erza expressed their gratitude to Ross and Kagura for preparing this Christmas dinner.
Kagura blushed and lowered her head slightly.
"You too, you've worked hard on the arrangements."
Rose was stunned for a moment, then reacted. He hadn't heard this for a long time. He smiled at Laxus and the others and expressed his gratitude.
Rose felt that his mood suddenly became better. He was already very happy.
"Let's make a wish together at the bonfire." Ross was in high spirits and took the lead in holding his hands together and closing his eyes. Seeing this, the rest of the people looked at the direction of the bonfire and closed their eyes.
"What did Erza wish for?" Ultia looked at Erza, who was smiling slightly beside him.
"I hope we can celebrate Christmas together in the future." Erza's mouth corners slightly raised, her eyes curved into two crescents, and her smile infected everyone present. Ross felt that the phrase "smiling like a flower" could be used to describe Erza.
"Okay." Ultia also smiled and nodded, looking at Erza.
Urrutia continued while the iron was hot: "When we leave, how about going with us? Not only Erza, but also Kagura and Simon."
"Where to go?" Erza was reluctant to leave Rosemary Village. The villagers were very kind to her, but she was also reluctant to leave Urrutia.
"Fairy Tail, our guild, is also our home." Urrutia pointed to the guild emblem on the back of her left hand.
"Home?" Erza lowered her head slightly. This was the first time she heard the word home. This word had never existed in her life. Although Simon and Kagura also lost their parents, they were two siblings who depended on each other, and at least they still had family.
"Eluza, look up." Rose said at the right time, and then Rose pointed at herself and said: "If you don't mind, try to be the head of Fairy Tail. I am an example. The president grandfather treats me as his own grandson."
Urutia also nodded to Erza. Although Makarov is sometimes frivolous, he is really good and dedicated to the guild members, and she also feels it.
"I agree with this. As the grandson of the old man, I am not as good as him." Laxus raised his right thumb and pointed at Rose, and chuckled.
"Very good, I will tell grandpa when I go back." Rose raised a weird smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Asshole, how old are you and still complaining!"
Three roars appeared on Laxus's forehead. He will be taught a lesson by Makarov's little fist.
"I'm still a child." Rose looked like he deserved a beating.
"Okay, I want to go." Erza looked at Rose and Laxus who were quarreling.
"Kagura wants to go too."
