I, a mercenary, became a beautiful silver-haired boy

Snap!

The crisp sound of slapping echoed throughout the empty orphanage. Weiwei was frightened by the scene in front of her. After all, a slave girl who was also a woman was treated like this.

Even Elena was stunned, and he was at a loss with his hand on the dagger. He didn't have time to tear the other person's mouth. After all, this slap was not given by him.

"Shut up, shameful thing, who told you to speak?!"

The person who slapped was the husband of the slave girl, that is, Stanford, who should be on the same side.

This slap was really fierce. The young and beautiful female slave was directly beaten to bleed from the corner of her mouth, and her entire left face was beaten red.

It will definitely swell up slowly after a while. This time, there was no mercy at all. This man would not show mercy just because the other party was his nominal wife.

Obviously, even the slave girl didn't seem to see her husband clearly. She covered her face and looked at Stanford in disbelief.

She even forgot to cry out in pain, she just covered her face and was in a daze, her mind was blank.

"I'm very sorry, Miss Weiwei, this slave of mine is really too ignorant. I have indeed received the repayment. I can promise that as long as nothing happens, we will not come here to harass you again."

He was still irritable in the last second, and changed into a kind and friendly look in the next second, pretending to apologize to Weiwei, which fully explained what a hypocrite is.

"It's good that you understand. Leave here quickly. I didn't cook your meal, so I won't entertain you two."

Weiwei is not a naive person. She can still show her face to such a person.

The slave woman's words are indeed a bit unpleasant, but he shouldn't beat others in front of others. He doesn't even want to take care of his wife, let alone be gentle to others.

Stanford, who was ordered to expel him, didn't plan to stay here. He twisted his wife's arm and walked out. His eyes didn't seem to intend to give up.

When the two figures completely disappeared from sight, Weiwei finally breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down on a bench beside her with some weakness, covering her chest and closing her eyes as if she had survived a disaster.

Stanford's slap was too fierce, even if it was not on her face, it was frightening to watch from the side.

"Don't take it lightly, that bastard will probably not let us go so easily. He even made up a false debt, I don't think he will give up so easily."

Elena patted Weiwei on the back. He didn't mean to scare Weiwei, but the eyes he had developed over the years made him see Stanford's coldness and cunning at a glance.

Although it was unclear what was hidden in the orphanage and what attracted the other party's attention, if Elena was the other party, he would definitely not give up the things he liked easily.

"What should I do?"

Weiwei was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether it was because of Elena's touch or because of what he said.

To be honest, she really didn't want to face this kind of thing again. She didn't have the courage to confront an adult man who was stronger and more prestigious than her. She was just holding on.

To be honest, if it wasn't for Elena's efforts, she would have saved enough platinum coins to repay the debt early. Just this one thing alone, Weiwei didn't know what to do.

I'm afraid she would have to give up the orphanage and live on the streets with the children.

"Thank you, Elena."

Thinking of this, Weiwei subconsciously took Elena's hand, rubbing her hands gently on the white little hand, feeling Elena's soft and boneless touch.

The sudden behavior made Elena a little uncomfortable, especially the feeling of his palm being touched carefully, which always made him feel weird.

"A... what's there to thank for as a family? If I have to thank someone, I should thank you, Sister Weiwei. You have done much more than I have to raise us orphans to this age."

Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Elena pretended to be calm and said cool words.

It sounded a bit deliberate, but Weiwei seemed really touched. This feeling of being able to rely on each other really felt like a family.

"Let's eat first, Elena, you must be hungry. I'll go call the other brothers and sisters first, you can start first."

Rubbing Elena's head, feeling the touch that she never gets tired of no matter how many times she touches it, Weiwei walked towards the inner room with satisfaction.

Elena bit his lip and was a little unhappy. He had clearly told Sister Weiwei that he was not a child anymore, but the other party still treated him like a child.

AsAn adult male who is old enough to be called uncle will not be happy when a girl younger than him touches his head.

Perhaps because there is no pressure from debt, this dinner seems particularly delicious.

It is rare to get together without any pressure, and the atmosphere in the orphanage is more active than ever before.

On the surface, there seems to be no pressure, but in fact, Elaina is unwilling to let go of her hanging heart.

Fearing that Stanford is going to persecute the orphanage in some strange way again, Elaina has not been active as an adventurer these days.

In the morning, after learning forging skills with Weiwei and the blacksmith, I immediately returned to the orphanage at noon.

Occasionally, I help Sister Weiwei with housework and teach the children in the orphanage to count and read. You must know that the literacy rate and cultural level in this world are quite low.

If the children in the orphanage can learn arithmetic and literacy, they can find a job to support themselves even when they grow up.

Although Elena has been loved by others since he was a child, it is precisely because of the love that Sister Weiwei and Elena have not given up on educating him.

Elena does not need to learn specifically, the previous incarnation of this body has memorized the culture and writing of this world.

As for arithmetic, although Elena did not go to school in his previous life, he hired someone to teach him knowledge.

Although he was born as a war orphan, he is not bad at arithmetic.

Apart from these daily lives, Elena's main task during this period is to clean the church, or to be more precise, to deal with the broken statue.

In the past, because of fear of irritating unknown gods, and the broken stone statue is really heavy, the church hall has not been dealt with for a long time.

In addition to cleaning the place where he stayed, the places that he would not pass by were filled with various rubbles.

Since there are secrets hidden in the orphanage, Elena thinks that the secret is likely to be hidden under the statue.

Without figuring out what this thing is, there is no way to understand why Stanford cares so much about the orphanage and wants to buy this dilapidated church.

It is impossible that the other party just wants to kidnap Sister Weiwei, right?
