"Brother, Ryan will come tomorrow, you two can make peace!"
"Are you crazy? How could he come tomorrow? Do you still want to be with him?" Amandine asked dissatisfiedly.
"Then we don’t have a chef, how can the restaurant continue to operate?" Uwa answered irrelevantly.
"Let’s talk about it tomorrow, go to bed first!" Amandine turned and went to the room.
Uwa followed him in, and the two of them didn’t talk all night. The next day, Ryan really didn’t come, so they had to close the business. Amandine didn’t care whether the restaurant was open or not. Ludes volunteered, "I’ll be the chef! Reopen the store, I can’t keep eating here for free."
"Aren’t you a cleaner? How can you cook?" Amandine asked curiously.
"After I stopped being a cleaner, I learned to be a chef for a few years. My skills aren’t very good, but it should be no problem to open a small store like this," Ludes explained.
"Should I pay you?" Amandine asked again.
Ludes smiled and said, "No, you just need to take care of my three meals a day." Amandine heard it, patted his shoulder and said, "Old Lu, you are really advanced, much better than Ryan, the stinky cook. I am proud of you." Uwa lowered her head and asked, "Can I still be a kitchen helper?"
"Of course, you are under the command of me and Old Lu now, you are the third person in this restaurant."
The restaurant reopened, and Ludes’s cooking was no worse than Ryan’s. He lived in the restaurant, and the relationship between the three became more and more harmonious, and life was going on happily. Amandine also invited teachers for Uwa, a total of three, but unfortunately, none of them were willing to teach. All of them agreed that her brain had become like a papaya, and there was no way to stuff anything into it. Uwa was also dejected, and finally, the study was left unfinished.
More than two months passed, but Uwa’s belly was getting bigger and bigger. Of course, this was not Amandine’s, but the result of doing strange actions with Ryan last time. Her belly was three times bigger than others in two months, and she looked like a pregnant woman who was pregnant for half a year. Amandine joked, "Will you give birth to a cow by then?"
Uwa answered seriously, "Brother, I am a human being and cannot give birth to a cow." Hearing this, Amandine could only sigh secretly, "Your brain is not much smarter than a cow."
Three months later, Uwa’s belly was so big that she couldn’t walk, and she could only lie in bed all day. Without her help, Amandine and Ludes were busy all day. Only then did they realize the importance of Uwa. How much work did she do in a day! One person did the work of three people. They discussed and prepared to recruit another clerk. Before the notice was posted, someone volunteered to come. The man was in his thirties. He was fine for the first few days, but after a week, he started to be lazy. Once Amandine saw him and was furious, and fired him on the spot. The two didn’t want to hire again, so they could only grit their teeth and wait until Uwa gave birth.
In February of the new year, Uwa was finally going to give birth. "Give birth at home or go to the hospital?" Amandine turned to Ludes and asked.
"Let’s go to the hospital! Her belly is too big, she may not be able to give birth, and she needs surgery."
Just as the two were about to call a taxi, Uwa couldn’t wait any longer. She shouted, "The baby is about to fall out, I can feel it."
Amandine gave up, "It seems that she can only give birth at home."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a cry of “Wow,” the baby had been separated from the mother’s body, and it might be too heavy, and it fell to the ground with the pants. This was a giant baby, weighing 20 pounds. Amandine hurriedly picked up the baby, and Ludes found a pair of scissors to cut the umbilical cord. The two cooperated tacitly, just like a pair of professional midwives. They checked the gender of the baby and found that it was a boy. Amandine joked, he said to Uwa, "You give birth as easily as pooping, you are really an extraordinary woman."
The baby kept crying in his arms, "Is he hungry?" Ludes reminded.
Uwa reached out to take the baby and did not avoid suspicion. She lifted her shirt on the spot and started feeding. Amandine saw this pair of perfect breasts again, and his eyes could no longer be moved away. Ludes coughed twice and said, "Amandine, we’d better go out!"
"Okay!" Although he responded, his feet did not move, and his eyes were still fixed on Uwa’s chest.
Uwa looked up and saw his appearance and asked, "Brother, are you hungry too?"
Amandine woke up as if from a dream and then said angrily, "I have been weaned a long time ago," after that, he walked out quickly.
The baby could walk at two months old, and his height was more than 80 cm. He had a huge appetite. Amandine named him "Beyondbear," which means taller and stronger than a bear. After Uwa gave birth, she rested for two days and then started working. Beyondbear ran around in the store alone, attracting the curiosity of customers. When they heard that he had grown so tall in just two months, they were secretly amazed.
Another half a year passed, and the business in the store was getting worse and worse. Three adults and a child had nothing to do all day long and could only play by slapping flies. Fortunately, the money they earned was enough for them to live for a while. The business was bad because of the outbreak of war. The Montel government joined several nearby countries to attack the city-state and the Illuminati. After more than 20 years of development, the city-state had a population of more than 300,000. Although the number of people was small, they had advanced technology and had defeated the Montel coalition forces without any chance of fighting back. Amandine always paid attention to the development of the war, because he was also the founder of the city-state at the beginning, and there was a statue of him in the main city of the city-state.
On this day, a group of armed men broke into the store. When they saw Amandine, they pulled him up and were about to leave. "What are you doing? You guys," he struggled to ask.
At this time, a man who looked like a superior said, "You outsiders are usually protected by the government, now the coalition forces need manpower, shouldn’t you stand up and help?"
Then he waved his hand, indicating that the people should be taken away. Uwa panicked and asked, "Why did you take my brother away?"
Ludes also came over and smiled at the few people, "Commanders, let’s discuss it. There are people everywhere, and he is not a big deal. If you can release him, we are willing to donate some money to the coalition army."
The commander was a little moved when he heard it. He pulled Ludes into the store and asked in a low voice, "How many shillings can you give? If it’s too little, there’s no need to talk further."
Ludes asked tentatively, "Three thousand?"
The other party immediately frowned and didn’t want to talk to him. Ludes was anxious and asked, "Sir, how much do you want? Just tell me directly?"
"Add a zero at the end, it’s about right!"
"Ah! Thirty thousand?"
"Yes, if it’s less, then forget it. I still have a few brothers to take care of, otherwise, they will not be convinced."
The amount was too large, Ludes did not dare to make the decision. He could only say, "Wait a minute, I’ll go ask them!"
