Lord Helanza

There is actually a plate of pickles for breakfast, which is a kind of tender tree buds similar to toon tree buds, kneaded with salt, and then stored in a jar. It tastes very crispy It has a slightly sour and musty taste, but it is not unpalatable. Especially when it is accompanied by chestnut rice porridge, it is also a good meal. Even Peter holds a bowl of chestnut rice porridge and eats with keen interest pleasure. Obviously This kind of breakfast is not often eaten.

The square table is not too big. The two plates on the table are stoneware. Each person’s rice bowls are open wooden bowls. The wooden spoons used to eat are very rough, and all the furnishings are transparent. A strong primordial breath.

Old Sheila sat opposite Surdak, her eyes swept across his face from time to time, and she seemed to have some worries about him.

Rita sits on the left side of Surdak, holding a wooden bowl with her head down, occasionally peeking, her bright eyes full of curiosity.

Natasha hugged Peter and sat across from Rita, her head bowed and said nothing.

This is Surdak's first official face-to-face breakfast with his family when he came here. He tried his best to control the speed of eating. It might be impolite to think of eating too early! But a simple bowl of gruel can be drunk in one bite, so there is no need to sit on a wooden bench and wait for others to finish it.

Old Sheila took a gentle look at Peter, who was twisting in Natasha’s arms, and said kindly to Peter:

"Peter, you go and help grandmother make the house Can you take a piece of the cassava in it?"

Peter was very well-behaved and nodded. He crawled out of Natasha's arms and slid into Sheila's bedroom.

Sheila pushed Peter away, put down the tableware in her hand, glanced at Surdak, and then said to Rita Natasha:

"He is Dark on the battlefield. The best friend we made will live in our house in the future, but we will not tell Peter his true identity for the time being, and we will also call him Dak in private."

"I see."

Rita and Natasha answered in unison.

It seems that old Sheila still has the right to speak at home. She paused for a while and said:

"Wait later, I will go to the village chief and ask for some wooden boards. The firewood room should be repaired. The current situation of air leakage is not enough, and a window should be opened on the wall. If the conditions are available, the house will be changed in the future. The house has only this condition for the time being."

" Rita, you go with me." Sheila said to Rita.

"en!" Rita held the wooden bowl nodded replied.

It's like the chestnut rice porridge in a wooden bowl is too delicious, she can't bear to lift the head.

Her face is clean, with golden hair and pale blue eyes like a quiet lake.

Sheila turned her head and said to Natasha on the other side: "Natasha, you stay at home to take care of Peter, and you can tidy up the wood house."

Surdak doesn’t know. How should I face Natasha? Although Natasha is still his wife in name, he doesn’t know anything about Natasha until now. Natasha has even been deliberately avoiding Surdak, but think about it. But it should be this way. With such an embarrassing identity, the two of them say hello face to face and they don’t know what to say...

"Okay." Natasha's voice is hoarse, which is incompatible with Her frail appearance does not match, she is like an ostrich with her head buried in the sand.

Old Sheila looked up at Surdak, trying to keep her voice calm and majestic, making her look more like The head of the family.

She said to Surdak, "Dak, you go to the river bend and cut some red thatch back. The roof needs to be covered with a new layer of thick red thatch. Otherwise, once it rains, the stone house will leak. If it rains, there is no way to live in."

'It is indeed time to fix it. 'Surdak looked at this simple stone house and thought in his heart.

But then he remembered these things, it was supposed to be something that the men in this family should be arrogant about, so he straightened his chest, put down the wooden bowl in his hand, and said to Sheila: "Sheila, I'll go Find the village chief. I will do all these things. I think... I will do better if I do this kind of thing."

Seeing Surdak’s calm face, Old Sheila thought After a while, he agreed to Surdak's proposal: "Okay..."

Old Sheila looked at Surdak on the opposite side, and his appearance overlapped with the appearance of his son in memory again and again, which made old Sheila a little confused. .

"Wait for you to come with me, I have something to say to you." Old Sheila turned and left the dining table, turned back to the room that was both a granary and a bedroom.

"..."

Surdak had already finished eating, when she heard old Sheila say this, she immediately followed along.

At this time, little Peter was holding a cassava and staggered out of the room. Old Sheila was worried that Peter would fall, and hurriedly rushed to hold him, and then handed Peter to Natasha’s. Arms.

Surdak came to Old Sheila’s room. She pulled out the bag of Gold Coin from under the bed. She put the Gold Coin pocket in front of Surdak and said:

"Don’t hide Gold Coins in cassava piles in the future. I don’t plan to save these things for you."

Surdak scratched his head in embarrassment. When he left these Gold Coins, he thought He just left, so that at least the old Sheila’s family can be guaranteed a little life, but now he is left behind. Surdak can only brace oneself and say:

"These are Duck’s, he In the army..."

Before he finished speaking, she was interrupted by Old Sheila's words:

"You don’t have to tell a lie to lie to me. Little Duck is impossible. A lot of money, although our family is a little poorer, it is not ours and we will not take it."

Surdak felt that he should make up a more reasonable reason, so he said:

"This is our second squad to hunt the demonic beast together and kill the devil..."

Old Sheila took a deep look at Surdak, and the warning in her eyes was already obvious, even though she was a An inexperienced country woman, but this does not mean that she is a fool who can be deceived. Old Sheila said: "If it's the entire squad, you have to find a way to distribute the money to their family."

Surdak feels that once he agrees, the hundreds of Gold Coins he has worked so hard to collect will be divided into 13 points. Although he doesn't mind giving some financial assistance to the other family members of the second squad, this It does not mean that he is willing to divide such a large amount of Gold Coin equally, he also has a little selfishness.

"..."

"The money is yours, isn't it?" Old Sheila stared at Surdak and asked seriously.

Surdak nodded, but he immediately said: "It’s me and Dak’s."

Seeing him persisting like this, the layer of ice in Old Sheila’s eyes finally melted a little bit , Old Sheila couldn’t help but ask: "Why are you willing to help us?"

"It was your son who turned me out from under the body of Devil, and then brought me to the army camp of the 57th Regiment. I took care of me in the military camp for three months. At that time, I listened to him telling me all day that he was about to retire. When he retired, no matter if I could get better or not, he would take me back to Helanza. Slowly getting better, we waited for him to retire and return to Helanza. For this reason, I did not join the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment..."

Surdak had to tell those experiences again:

p>

"...He was spotted by Baron Sidney by chance. He was promoted from an ordinary first-class soldier to Small Captain, and later to platoon length, and granted the Knight, who was officially canonized by the Grimm Empire, just didn't expect."

Old Sheila carefully listened to these stories, her eyes darkened, she probably thought of her son, her old eyes blinked, and she hid the tears, she said to Surdak: "Perhaps You are just curious about the life of our family, but no matter what, I am already very pleased that you can come here to visit me. You don't have to care about those promises, you should also have your own life..."

"I'll talk to the village chief about building the house." Surdak stood up quickly and said to Old Sheila.

After speaking, he turned around and ran out......
