Not only would the children help care for the man's sick mother, they would also lend a hand with preparing meals, cleaning, and laundry.
"We needed more helping hands for the future, and I also wanted someone who could travel back and forth to town."
When Qiong Xing asked if they could all get along, Ars hesitated for a moment before finally nodding.
"...Alright."
"Then we'll leave dinner to them. As for us, let's make the sweets I promised."
"O-Okay."
"Y-Yes!"
Kira threw both hands into the air with an excited cheer.
It seemed she had become much better at expressing her feelings than before.
Tasha who is standing beside her still looked shy, but now that she had grown accustomed to living here, the tension had clearly eased from her shoulders.
Pleased to see that, Qiong Xing asked the two girls to go to the field and dig up a few sweet potatoes.
"Looks like you really took good care of them. Thank you."
