Chapter 31: Sister and Younger Sister
It was as if the energy that normally supported her and allowed her to jump around and destroy the house had been sucked away by the baby in her belly.
Durandal looked at her sister in front of her, her sleeping face like the Sleeping Beauty princess.
She couldn't help but sigh that time flies so fast. Now even her sister is married.
Durandal carefully left the room and closed the door. After she stepped back, she sighed softly "It turns out that taking care of others is such a tiring thing."
Wiping the non-existent sweat from her forehead, Durandal felt that she was more exhausted than exchanging fire with thugs from turbulent countries "It's really hard for Rita and Mom to take care of everyone on weekdays."
In fact, during this period of time, Cecilia was the main person taking care of Kiana.
After all, whether it was the strong and healthy Durandal, or the naughty and playful Kiana when she was little, Cecilia was able to raise both of them healthily.
As for why Siegfried was not mentioned? Please, in Durandal's impression, when the two sisters were young, Cecilia returned to her hometown for a while, leaving Siegfried alone to take care of the two children.
However, at noon on the first day, Siegfried almost blew up the kitchen! Who could have thought of using a flamethrower to bake pizza?
During that time, Durandal shouldered the responsibility of being the most mature person in the family. Every day, she took money to buy prepared food at a nearby small restaurant and brought it home. Looking back now, that half a month was also very difficult...
However, Cecilia and Siegfried have to deal with visa issues these days, so the responsibility of taking care of Kiana today falls on Durandal.
She lay on the table somewhat tiredly. The two big muscles on her chest acted as a good cushion, allowing her to lie on the table at a very comfortable angle.
"By the way, what are Rita and the others busy with now?" Durandal suddenly became excited when she thought of the dessert shop downstairs.
You know, on ordinary days, it is difficult for Durandal to eat delicious desserts when she is on a mission.
While at the Schicksal Headquarters, she spent most of her time in training, and Rita kept a very strict eye on her diet.
So Durandal hasn't eaten delicious desserts for a long time. You know, no girl can resist the temptation of sweets.
This also includes the Valkyrie-like Durandal...
No girl can resist the temptation of sweets.
It has been mentioned before that their house is a two-story building. The second floor is where people live, while the first floor is a small shop run by Xianglai and Kiana.
Valkyrie Dessert Shop. In fact, when the shop first opened, Kiana suggested that the name of the shop could be Valkyrie Dessert Shop.
She has never known why her own Sister Kiana likes the name Valkyrie so much.
But if they use this name... then this shop is more like a fitness place than a place selling desserts.
Later, she compromised and named her own small dessert shop Valkyrie.
Durandal went directly down from the second floor to the dessert shop on the first floor. As soon as she entered the door, she smelled a very sweet scent in the air.
As the saying goes, sweetness makes people feel happy, and there is some truth to this statement.
It is said that in a dessert and candy factory with a long history, the marriage rate among male and female employees is as high as a terrifying 80%, and the divorce rate is also abnormally low.
"Lady Durandal, Why you're coming down?" Rita saw Durandal coming down from the second floor and greeted her with the same perfect courtesy.
"It seems that Kiana fell asleep again?" Xianglai slowly put down the egg beater in his hand and said with a wry smile, "Fortunately, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said that this is a normal phenomenon and it will be fine after a while."
"Otherwise, I would have thought that Kiana had some strange disease?" Xianglai once again got busy with the work at hand.
It's eight o'clock in the morning, the store has just opened, and there are almost no customers.
Nowadays, various ingredients are generally prepared. After all, most desserts in stores are made and sold on the spot.
Kiana just woke up around six in the morning, and now she fell asleep again at eight o'clock, which shows how much sleep Kiana gets.
However, the daytime sleep time is usually not long, about half an hour to two hours, and she sleeps very lightly and will be woken up by the slightest noise.
he doesn't know why Kiana's various reactions during pregnancy are more intense than others. It's almost like twice that of an ordinary person...
"I have prepared some lemons here. I'll trouble you to bring them up later, Durandal." Xianglai brought a bag of fresh lemons to the counter. "But you have to keep a close eye on her and don't let Kiana eat too much."
"Otherwise, she'll have stomach discomfort again." he always warned seriously.
Durandal was still frightened as she looked at the bag of lemons on the counter.
This is a very common ingredient in desserts, but for some people who cannot eat sour food, it is only used for decoration or seasoning.
Once, Durandal saw Kiana eating a lemon and she was so happy. She couldn't help but take half of it and took a bite...
As a result, the lemon almost made her teeth sour. Since then, Durandal has kept her distance from lemons.
she can't help but wonder, 'If I have children one day, will they also like this extremely sour fruit?'
Then she shifted her gaze away from the lemon, looked at the dazzling array of desserts on the counter, and couldn't help swallowing.
Beep, beep! Beep, beep!
Just then the timer on the oven went off...
"It's just right, it's time for us to bake the chiffon cake." Xianglai had always seen her sister-in-law's desire for dessert, "Durandal, why don't you try the craftsmanship of our Valkyrie Dessert Shop."
Durandal's eyes suddenly sparkled with stars, and she nodded frantically like pounding garlic.
In fact, any cake or bread product is sweetest when it is just out of the oven. Sometimes it will lose its flavor if left outside for a long time.
Looking at the chiffon cake being cut into triangular pieces in front of her and placed on the plate, it was still slightly steaming.
Durandal couldn't wait to pick up the fork in her hand.
Gently cut off a small piece and put it in her mouth, the sweet feeling will explode along her taste buds.
Looking at the figure who was always busy on the other side of the stage, Durandal couldn't help but sigh at her sister's good fortune.
Even if she jumps off a bridge, she can find an excellent husband who can cook and take care of the family...
