"Let's go buy some more clothes, maybe they'll be useful." Kassa said to Talia after coming out of the flower shop. It's nice to have a little sister shopping with you and helping you bargain.
"Okay. I also want to buy some souvenirs. How can I visit someone without bringing any gifts?" When Talia learned that she was going to meet Kassa's parents, she enthusiastically took Kassa around the street to look for shops, and her emotional value was at its maximum.
Soon, Kassadin and Taliyah returned with a bouquet of flowers in their arms, a bag of clothes and various gifts in their hands. Even the Wild Hunt said he wanted to show off his skills and asked her to buy some food.
Talia's food was mainly bacon, oatmeal, bread and cheese, which were all the food she would eat on the road. She also bought some other gifts and put them in a rough bag on her shoulder.
The best gift for Kai'Sa may be Taliyah herself. Her parents would be happy to see that she has made such a kind and genuine friend.
Because putting flowers and some living things in the food into the insect nest space might cause problems, Kasa simply took them in her hands. She was immersed in her happy vision, and suddenly found a familiar figure in a small shop on the roadside.
"Kasha? What's wrong with you?"
Kasha ignored Talia's call and walked towards the small shop. This was a small shop specializing in selling tea. The owner was weighing a special spice tea and putting it into small bags to ensure that the weight of each bag was the same.
What Kasa cared about most was the shop owner. The moment she saw her, the vague memories that had been buried deep in her mind suddenly surfaced, gradually overlapping with the image of her mother working in her memory.
"Hello, what would you like to buy?" Seeing a customer coming in, Eliza put down her work and went forward to greet him.
"Mom!" Seeing the almost unchanged face getting closer and closer, Kassa almost shouted out loud, but stopped abruptly after hearing the other party's greeting.
Eliza was kind to her, but not in the way that family members are kind to each other. Unfortunately, she did not recognize her daughter at first sight.
Thinking of this, Kasa felt a little lonely. She took off her hood to reveal her hair and face, forced a smile and said, "Don't worry about me. I'll look around first."
Kasa lowered her head to look at the tea leaves. Elisa was obviously stunned for a moment, but it was not because she recognized Kasa, but because she was shocked by the guest's beautiful face and strange hair and eye color.
"What a beautiful girl." Elisa has been in Nashram for more than five years and has seen all kinds of people, but a beauty like Kasa is still a rare sight for her. If she knew that this was her child, she might be very proud.
On the other side, Kasa was still pretending to pick tea leaves, and occasionally glanced at Elisa's reaction out of the corner of her eye. Her mood was very complicated.
The mother who had lived with her the longest actually couldn't recognize her as her daughter, which made her very anxious. Could it be that she was not her biological daughter?
But then she thought, that peasant woman from a small mountain village could adapt to the life in a big city and even opened a small and exquisite tea shop in a busy market. She must be living a good life. She was sincerely happy for them.
"Kasha!"
The sudden voice startled Kasa, but it was not Elisa recognizing her, but Talia calling her.
"Kasha, come and have a look. I've drunk this kind of spice tea before! When we were in the weaver tribe, our grandmother Babayan often made this kind of tea for us to drink!"
Taliyah shared her discovery excitedly, unaware that her call just now was like a roller coaster, which brought Kassadin to the top in an instant and then dashed her hopes.
"Really? Let me see." Kassa was forced to come to Talia and Eliza to pick tea leaves. She could feel that the mother reacted to her name.
However, Elisa didn't know that her daughter had changed her name to Kasha. She still remembered her daughter as Kesha. The two names were just similar in pronunciation, which was not enough for her to recognize Kasha.
Chapter 84: Things Are Different and People Are Changed
=============================
"I've never seen you like this."
As he watched Kai'Sa dealing with Taliyah absentmindedly, the voice of the Wild Hunt emerged in his mind.
"Oh, I'm so confused." Kasa was wondering how to best meet Elisa. She didn't expect to meet her mother who ran a shop in the market.
"Girls change a lot when they grow up. You've changed so much in the past few years. Maybe she thinks Talia is more like her daughter than you." The Wild Hunt joked.
When he first met Kassa, she was just an ordinary little girl. Six years passed in the blink of an eye, and Kassa had grown into a beautiful young lady.
"It's all your fault!" Kassa said angrily.
It's a pity that the Wild Hunter dared to say that, who gave her such good nutrition? Now she has grown so well that even her mother can't recognize her.
"I'll give you an idea. Go ask her, 'Mom, do I need to pay for my purchases?' and see how she reacts."
"I'm working now, this isn't a good idea." Kassadin rejected the Wild Hunt's proposal. Besides, it was useless for her to ask for tea, as it would eventually return to her mother.
"Then go home before she gets off work and prepare a meal in advance for her return."
“This idea is much more reliable.”
Kasha was thinking of doing something for her mother, and a table of prepared meals was a good choice. She wanted to let her parents know that her changes were not only in appearance.
After making the decision, Kassa was no longer sad. She followed Talia's instructions and bought a bag of spiced tea from Elisa, who still didn't recognize her, and then called the latter to go home directly.
Kassa followed the Wild Hunt's instructions and found Elisa's doorstep.
What came into view was an old brick house located in the old book storage area of Nashram, with a small dusty square at the door. The stone slabs on the ground were older than any empire, but the flower beds were full of new flowers.
The contrast between the ancient and the new brings people a sense of tranquility that transcends time and space. This place is indeed much quieter than other places, and few people pass by.
I would like to thank Cassiopeia here. In order to accurately deliver Kasa's letter to Eliza, she specially sent people to search the local area and finally locked down this address.
"Kasha, so you live in the library district! I heard that there is a very old library in Nashramé. Legend has it that it was built by a great scholar. Logically, it should be nearby! How about it? Do you want to go for a stroll together when you are free?"
"Who is the Grand Maester?" Kasa listened to Talia's endless chatter while she fiddled with the door lock. No one was home, and the door was locked as expected.
"Nasus, the lord of the desert, is both the god of jackals and the god of wisdom."
"He has so many names that I, a native Shuriman, can't remember them all." Kaisa shrugged and continued to fiddle with the door lock.
It is quite difficult to open the lock without destroying it. Although the Wild Hunter can transform, he has no experience in lock picking and can only grope on the spot.
"Hehe, I also heard about this from Babayan. Legend has it that a great war between god-warriors took place here. In that war, Renekton razed the Great Library of Nashrameh to the ground and massacred everyone who stood in his way. In order to protect those books and civilians, Nasus personally taught his brother a lesson and rebuilt the Great Library on the ruins. If you look around, you might be able to find a statue of the Grand Maester in front of the library."Mei thinks you are thinking about me Kong Yong without Lin You Yong...
"Two brothers are actually fighting. Well, let's go to the library to have a look, although I don't know many words."
Kassadin could hear a kind of reverence and yearning for Nasus in Taliyah's words. She wondered how she would feel if she knew that she had once entered Nasus' tomb.
As for what Talia said, we have to combine it with the deeds of these two people to understand it.
Nasus was already an accomplished and beloved general during his human days. In order to leave wisdom and enlightenment for future generations, the army he led would preserve the books, scrolls, and doctrines of the defeated civilizations after each conquest. Even his enemies had a high opinion of him.
In his later years, Nasus suffered a relentless illness, and the whole country was in grief. The emperor personally pleaded with the sun priests to grant him the opportunity to ascend. After evaluation, Nasus's achievements were enough to be granted ascension, but he was unable to ascend to the altar alone because of his terminal illness.
In the end, it was Renekton who took the initiative to carry Nasus on his back and help him walk the last leg of the journey, intending to sacrifice himself to help his brother ascend. It was this selfless act that allowed him to survive the cleansing holy light and become an Ascended being with his brother.
This incident became a legend that has been passed down to this day, influencing countless generations. Even today, statues of jackals and crocodiles can often be seen placed in important places as door gods.
It was incredible when Talia said that a bloody conflict almost broke out between them because they were such a pair of brothers who were willing to sacrifice for each other.
With a "click", the door lock was opened after Wild Hunt's continuous attempts. He was forced to learn the lock-picking skills.
"Hey, don't you have the key?" Seeing that the skin armor on Kassadin's hands was slightly deformed, Taliyah realized what Kassadin had just done.
"It doesn't matter. We are here to cook, so just bring the ingredients." Kasa pushed the door open and saw a table in front of her. She put everything on it.
"Eh? But I can't cook either." Talia followed in and began to look around. She was from a nomadic tribe and had almost no experience using a stove.
"Actually, I don't know how to cook either. It's the Wild Hunt who wants to cook." Kassa sighed. As a foodie, she would never be a good cook in her life.
"The Wild Hunt can cook? Is that really true! How can I help? I can't just stand there and watch." Two adult girls don't know how to cook, but instead let a parasite do it. How can this world be so abstract?
"He said he would check to see if there was any seasoning needed. If there was, you could go to the market and buy some. You don't have to worry about anything else."
After saying this, Kasa began to observe this new home.
This is a cozy little home. The kitchen is on the right side of the hall, and the left side is divided into two bedrooms.
She first came to her bedroom, which she recognized immediately because of her old clothes hanging on the wall. This bedroom had never been lived in, but it was very tidy. It was obvious that her parents hoped that when she came back, she could just move in without worrying about anything.
However, she couldn't stay long and had to leave again.
Kasha noticed that there was a stack of letters on the table, all of which were sent by her in the past few years. She kept all of them carefully. The paper was yellowed, and although the words were similar, it showed that they were often read.
Then she walked into her parents' bedroom and saw a portrait hanging above the bed. It was clearly a family portrait, but it only showed two people.
The father and mother in the portrait showed eager smiles, and there was a blank space left between them, obviously waiting for her to return home to complete the family portrait.
But the empty space could only accommodate a little girl, and she had grown too big to fit in.
Things are wrong.
Kasha didn't cry when she saw the letters, but she cried when she saw the portrait.
"Dad-Mom-I'm sorry, I'm an unfilial daughter."
The hot tears fell loudly.
Chapter 85: This spicy crab is really fragrant and spicy
==
When Eliza passed through the archway at the entrance to the small square in the library area, she smelled the aroma of food.
"Huh? Whose cooking smells so good? This smell seems to be chili and crab... What good things happened to you? It's delicious."
Eliza admitted that the aroma aroused her appetite, but there were only two mouths to feed in her family, so she just made one or two dishes to deal with it.
When the children are not at home, the adults just have to make do with their lives. It doesn’t matter if the food is good or not, as long as they are full.
Although Kassadin earns a lot of money as a desert guide, reasonable saving is also an important reason why a family can live a long-term life.
When she arrived at the door of her house, Eliza found that the lock had been opened. She thought her husband had come back first. She could still hear the sound of frying food coming from the kitchen through the door.
"It's strange that she knows how to cook." Eliza was very surprised.
Since coming to Nashramé, Kassadin's work has become much more convenient and he spends more time at home, but he has become less interested in cooking.
He is a daughter slave. He had little time to spend with his daughter because of work, so every time he comes back, he will seize the opportunity to cook for Kesha himself.
But now, he has time but his daughter is not at home, so he just gives up on this matter and hasn't cooked for several years.
If you have that much time, you might as well go to the junk market to look for antiques, watch an old man walking his bird, or go fishing at the beach.
After opening the door, Eliza was stunned when she saw the large table full of delicious dishes.
After all the hard work of cooking, he ended up wasting so much. How could the couple finish the food? Was he going to invite friends over? But since he was willing to cook, it was hard to say anything to him. It was okay to waste a little once in a while.
"I was thinking that since you are so good at cooking, why didn't you become a chef? Why did you have to do such a dangerous job?"
Eliza hung her bag on the iron hook behind the door while muttering to herself. Then she looked towards the kitchen next to the hall and found two girls looking at her through the door. One of them was holding a smoking spatula in her hand, but there was no sign of Kassadin.
"Why... are you in my house?" Eliza was stunned.
She remembered these two people. They appeared in her shop today to buy tea. The tall girl with purple hair left a deep impression on her.
Taliyah first looked at Kassa, then looked at the confused Eliza, and immediately walked to the middle with a smile and said.
"Aunt, this is your daughter Kasa! Don't you recognize her?"
"Kasha?"
Elisa was still a little skeptical, but when Kassa shouted the word "Mom" that had been haunting her dreams, time and space seemed to travel back to a few years ago, and those childish cries that once echoed in her ears reappeared.
"Kaisha?! Why didn't you even tell me you were back!" Eliza's eyes instantly filled with tears. She stepped forward and tightly hugged Kaisha, who was now taller than her. She cried intermittently like a boiling kettle, "Mom and Dad have missed you so much. We have been missing you for five years. Every day we hope that you can come back safely..."
"I'm sorry, Mom... I just wanted to give you a surprise." Kassa couldn't finish her sentences. She had already cried once before and tears were flowing again.
How many five years can one waste in life? And she made her parents wait for so long. What an unfilial daughter.
"I don't blame you, I don't blame you. Mom knows you have your own difficulties."
Elisa patted Kassa's back, gradually loosened her arms, and looked at Kassa's current appearance carefully with tearful eyes.
Seeing the face of the girl in front of her gradually overlap with the girl she used to be, she couldn't help but sigh: "The little girl has grown up and even her mother can't recognize her."
"Has the change really been that big?" Kasha felt aggrieved. She had just grown up, not had plastic surgery. "I was in front of you for so long and you didn't recognize me. I was so anxious."
“It felt like someone was pretending to be my daughter.”
Eliza burst into laughter and touched Kassa's head. The latter leaned down and put her head on her mother's chest, acting affectionately and coquettishly.
"No, I will always be your daughter."
"It's so touching. Talia is also homesick."
Talia is sentimental, and was also moved to tears by the touching scene of mother-daughter reunion, crying louder than anyone else. In the end, only the Wild Hunt played the villain to remind them that the food in the kitchen was still cooking.
"But if you don't want the food to get burnt, you should go back and turn it over."
Half an hour later, the dish was finally completed, but there was still one person missing.
"Where is Dad? Why hasn't he come back yet?" Kassadin asked while sitting at the table. It would be inconvenient for others to eat first if Kassadin didn't come back.
"I guess he went to look for that Yodel again." Eliza replied unhappily.
"Yordle...man?"
"A guy named Rambo. They both like to go to the junk market to look for gold. They have brought back many broken antiques over the years."
"Rambo?" Even the Wild Hunter was a little shocked. How could a guy like Rambo get along with Kassadin?Mei misses you and me. Where are you? Kong Yong is not Lin You Yong......
