Lu Lu looked at Xi Xi and was stunned for a while, then he came back to his senses and said with surprise and joy: "Xixi, you mean... you mean you are pregnant?"
"Yes." Xixi nodded shyly, but couldn't help but look up at Lulu, her eyes also full of joy, "I wasn't sure a few days ago, but today World Tree gave me feedback, There was a little life in my belly, and that was our child.”
"That's great." Lulu opened his big hands and hugged Xixi into his arms, but immediately let go of his hand, fearing that his rough hands and feet would hurt Xixi and the child in her belly, just like a child He looked at Xixi with the same innocent smile, but for a moment he had nowhere to put his hands.
"You touch it." Xixi smiled and took his big hand and gently placed it on her belly. Although there was no sign of bulge yet, the two of them were as careful as treating a baby.
"Let me listen and see if our child has anything to say to us." Lulu knelt down, put his ear gently on Xixi's belly, closed his eyes and listened carefully.
Xixi gently touched Lulu's head with her hand, her smile full of happiness.
Perhaps only they themselves understand how rare this child is and what it means to them.
They once thought that they would never have children, and that the Druids' inheritance would be completely cut off in their hands.

"Hey, Boss Mai is too willful, isn't he? If I used to take leave outside of holidays, at least the hot pot area would still be open. Today, I can't even eat hot pot."
"Hot pot is not that big of a deal. The Mai Rui hot pot in front is opened by the chef from the hot pot section of Boss Mai's house. The ingredients are a little worse than the hot pot at Mai Mi restaurant, but the taste is different. The key is that the price is cheap. It’s almost one-tenth the price of Maimi’s.”
"Okay, let's settle for the next best thing and go try Namai Rui Hot Pot today."
Outside the restaurant, the guests who came out of excitement looked at the closed door and made some helpless remarks, so they could only go to Mai Rui Hotpot to eat hot pot.
No one knew that Mag and the others had actually returned from a pleasant vacation and were holding a lively barbecue dinner in the restaurant.
The three sheep brought back from the blue grassland are the protagonists tonight. The blue sheep are turned into meat skewers. Even the wooden skewers used to pierce the meat are cut from the branches of Baka wood that Mag specially brought back. Because it was grilled for the first time. He wasn't sure about the mutton, so he cut it into pieces about the same size as beef skewers so he could better control the heat.
As for the polar black goat, Amy had tamed it into a mount on the road. When she returned to the restaurant to slaughter the goat in the evening, she was troubled.
"Xiao Hei, although we had a lot of fun at noon and you are smarter than the ugly duckling, it is night now and we are so hungry that we have to eat you." Amy patted the black goat's head and comforted: "Don't be sad, I will enjoy you."
"Mea~"
The black goat licked Amy's hand, and then resolutely walked towards Mag holding the vegetable leaves.
"The mutton soup is boiling in the pot. The oven at home is a bit small and I don't have the conditions to roast a whole lamb, so I can only roast half a lamb. The roasting method is different from what I ate on the grassland at noon today. I'll try it later. How does this taste?" Mag placed the grill in the middle of the restaurant, moved the tables, chairs and benches to the side, and three long tables were spliced together to form a long table for everyone.
Barbecuing alone in the kitchen always feels like a chef rather than a member of a barbecue party.
Moreover, barbecue is all about the smell of fireworks. Once everything is ready and served to the table, the smell will be gone and you will have to watch the meat slowly mature on the grill.
Today's mutton is the protagonist. Of course, you can't just eat mutton. Pig eyes, beef... these play supporting roles.
Although she missed the trip, Irina did not miss the barbecue. She was eating fruit and patiently listening to Amy tell about the interesting things she encountered during today's outing. When she heard something funny, she would laugh with Amy.
The charcoal fire in the oven was already burning red. Mag brushed a layer of oil on the baking sheet and began to place the mutton on it.
"Zizi~"
When the mutton meets the hot grill pan, oil immediately begins to leak out, and the aroma of the meat overflows.
Compared with the original way of eating it on the grassland, where you only sprinkle a handful of salt on it, Mag's approach is a little more heavy-handed. He sprinkles chili powder and cumin powder on top, as if injecting soul into it, and the gentle fragrance suddenly becomes sharp and unstoppable. Resist.
Everyone who was still chatting was attracted by the mutton skewers on the grill. They had obviously eaten a lot of mutton skewers at noon, but the mutton skewers grilled by Meg had a more aggressive taste. Just smelling the aroma made their mouth feel... Shengjin.
Watching the meat skewers slowly change on the grill is both enjoyable and painful.
"Okay, let's try the mutton skewers I grilled for the first time." Mag gathered the mutton skewers spread out on the grill, put them in three long wooden trays, and handed them to the people who were waiting aside. Mia.
"It looks great." Mia smiled and placed the trays on three tables so that no one would have to get up to get them.
"Let me have a taste." Amy couldn't wait to grab a mutton skewer. She just blew it a few times and then directly put it into her mouth and took a bite.
Compared with the rough eating method of the herdsmen on the grassland, Mag's meat skewers are more delicate, and only use meat cubes without retaining the bones, which makes it easier to eat.
"Well - the lamb roasted by Father is also delicious." Amy chewed the lamb happily, and did not forget to pick up another skewer and pass it to Irina sitting next to her, "Irina Sister, you should try it too. It’s really delicious.”
"Well, let me try it." Irina took the mutton skewers, looked at their color, the surface was slightly browned, smelled the smell, the meat was fragrant, the spices were tempting, she blew on the first piece of mutton with her delicate red lips, and then took a bite Take a bite.
"This smells like this!"
The surface of the mutton has a slight burnt aroma, but the taste is not hard at all. The spices first tease the taste buds, and when you bite the mutton with your teeth, the sweet and fresh mutton suddenly bursts out in your mouth.
It was the smell from the grassland. The picture of the blue prairie that Amy had just described to her, almost the same color as the sky, instantly appeared in her mind. Groups of blue sheep were walking and grazing on the grassland. What a comfortable and beautiful scene.
The corners of Irina's mouth couldn't help but rise. The spices gave the fresh and sweet mutton a rich layering, which also satisfied the greedy taste buds to the maximum extent.
In addition to cumin powder and chili powder, there is also a light fragrance lingering in it, bringing a grassland style.
If the beef is amazing enough, then this mutton skewers should be 50-50 equal to it.
Even...she felt that she might like the mutton kebabs more.
