Kittens

Stopping and looking at the woman who had called her, Xiaolan remained quiet. Li Xinyi smiled kindly at Xiaolan and said:

- "Hello, thank you for your help now, my dear, what is your name?

- "Gu Xiaolan, sister"

- "Hehehe, I'm much older than you my dear, call me Aunt Hua." - 'What a lovely young man, just called me a sister, I can't believe you look that young'

If this lady knew that to be considered old by Xiaolan she must have been over 200 years old, I don't know what she would think.

'What a strange woman, I don't feel malice in her, but it seems that she is hiding something from me. It is better to leave quickly '; thought Xiaolan.

- "No need to thank, ma'am. I'm late, I must go. Have a good afternoon."

Xiaolan walked quickly and turned the corridor, but in fact she used the shadow step and appeared in the alley near the exit of the mall.

Walking down the street, she stopped at a stall where she bought a barbecue skewer and walked away before she came across three kittens.

One was snow white and had green eyes like a peridot. The other kitten had black fur, but its paws were white and its eyes were blue like na agate stone. The third kitten, on the other hand, was mottled gray with eyes that appeared to be golden, with a coloring similar to topaz.

They were meowing and staring at my barbecue. They are adorable, but not tough. It would be better to strengthen them.

In my other life, witches could choose animals and raise them, giving them intelligence and thus forming contracts where a spell could be engraved on the animal's soul to be used as a skill.

These little ones don't look bad to me, and since I'm going to move, it would be nice to have a little company. I turned to the nearby convenience store and bought a bottle of milk and a jar.

Returning to the alley where the kittens were, I poured the milk into the pot and from my fingers three drops of silvery liquid fell into the milk. The three kittens drank the milk completely, but then they lay down and slept with no signs of waking up. I put them in my space and then walked away.

I used the shadow step and went to my new home. With a simple invisibility spell I went into the house and checked every part of it, and then I reached the garden.

It wasn't a garden yet, weeds were all over the ground and the grass had long since lost its luster.

Walking to the other end, I moved my fingers and a drawing appeared. Just a brand where it delimits the space that will be transformed into a greenhouse. I'm not concerned with that, but I don't want to take the trouble to do it.

Returning home she hired a delivery service and a company specializing in construction to create the greenhouse night. As they say here, money moves the world.
