Lord Helanza

Little Peter ate some jerky and scones during the day. This kind of jerky was a bit salty. After eating, he drank a lot of water, which made him a little bit at night. Abdominal distension, it took a long time before she lay down in old Sheila's arms and fell asleep.

The family sits quietly around the dining table. Surdak feels a little bit apprehensive in his heart that he might be judged by the whole family.

There are still a few apples and plums on the plate on the table, and a candle is set on the table. Occasionally, the wax oil will break through the oil pool and slide down like tears.

Old Sheila saw that the candle was too bright, she was a little distressed, so she burned a candle, and quickly reached into the candlelight with her fingers, and pinched off the candle wick in the flame. The light became dim, and she was a little dissatisfied with Rita that she didn't light the oil lamp, but took out a candle, thinking it was a waste.

Before this, even the oil lamps in the house were rarely used, but the atmosphere was a little dull at the moment, and Old Sheila did not scold Rita.

Under the candlelight, the wrinkles on Old Sheila's face are a bit obvious, but her complexion is much better than before, at least a layer of oily color.

"...You shoulder the friendship of Duck, and you came to our house not far away to help us through one after another. Our hearts are full of gratitude." Old Sheila whispered, and then She glanced at Surdak again, and then said:

"Ordinarily...Who do you want to marry, that is your right, we naturally have no right to interfere, but you like Selena, me The old woman has to say a few more words to you. I hope you have to consider this matter carefully. Since Selena was married to our village, some strange things have been happening continuously by her side. She was called by others in the village. For the ominous person, this is not everyone’s slander, but in the past few years, many people who have been close to her have died for no reason. She may bring you endless disasters."

Old Sheila's words are very pertinent. Surdak can only rub her nose and explain to Old Sheila: "I think maybe some things are coincidences, of course... I am not denying anything. I saw it at the entrance of the village a few days ago. Seeing Signa, I just think she is still too young. If the two clerks take Selena away, maybe Signa will become an orphan in the village."

Surdak look He glanced at the sleeping little Peter and said: "She is different from other children. She is too dependent on Dai Linna. If she really wants to stay in Wall Village, she may have a very difficult life, or may not survive. Going down, I just want to help. I think if Dak is here, he will do the same. This is how he picked me out of the corpse and gave me a new life."

Ta held an apple in his hand and said next to him, "I heard Sandy say that Selena can do witchcraft. Once, she saw Selena quietly praying to the moon in the room..."

Old Sheila glared at Rita.

"..."

Surdak didn't know what to say for a while.

Old Sheila gently stroked little Peter’s forehead, with a radiance of love in her eyes, she said with emotion: "I often dream of Dark recently, and he just stands in the clouds with a smile like that. , Talking to me with a smirk like before, he asked me Peter, Natasha and Rita how are they doing recently, in fact, I have been thinking about some things these days, since Duck has completely left. We went to another country, we can't let him miss, we should live a better life."

Old Sheila's eyes passed through the window, looking towards the dark night.

The rays of light in her eyes came and said: "It is my greatest wish to be able to see Peter grow up healthy and healthy with my own eyes."

Then, she paused again before saying: "Of course Rita can save a dowry and find someone to rely on to live happily in the future. Natasha should not live so hard like me in the future. It's not easy, even more how you are still so young..."

Rita's face turned red immediately, she was a little sorry, and she held the apple in her palm.

And Natasha lowered her head like a quail.

At this time, Rita couldn’t help but ask: "When father died, were you intimidated by the census clerks of the city hall?"

Old Sheila Weiwei curl one's lip, and said: "It happened to be the year that Duck attended the coming-of-age ceremony when Old Suer died. Who would want an old woman who was about to lie in the coffin?" After finishing speaking, he used a curve ruler in Rita. There was a fiercely tap on the head.

Old Sheila looked towards Surdak, put Little Peter’s hand in his rough palm, and said to Surdak:

"Since Little Peter is your son in name, also I like this child very much, and I am willing to raise him up, and Natasha is also your nominal wife, and she is also destined to continue to live with us, she really needs a support, then you are willing to marry her Is it?"

"I..." Surdak didn't know how to answer. He paused before saying, "I will take good care of her for the rest of my life."

In the eyes of old Sheila With a sense of wisdom, she looked at Surdak and said with a serious expression: "It's not the kind of casual stuttering. It's not the kind of stuttering that has a shelter from the wind and rain. It is enough to have clothing to protect you from the cold. In fact, everyone They all yearn for a happier life..."

Surdak didn't expect what Old Sheila actually said, and he hasn't really thought about it for the time being.

He hesitated for a while, and worried that the silence for too long would be a kind of harm to Natasha. He could only brace oneself, some guilty said: "This is not fair to Natasha, I hope she herself Can she also have the opportunity to choose?"

"What is fair? What other choices can she have?" Old Sheila asked with some overbearing, and then she asked the opposite Natasha: "Natasha, what are your thoughts?"

Natasha also didn't expect old Sheila to discuss these tonight, and said blankly: "I haven't considered these..."

Old Sheila gave Natasha a bit of hate iron for not becoming steel, and said earnestly: "Sometimes there are some things that belong to you. You have too much time to make choices, you just happen to have good luck..."

Natasha blushed and looked up at Surdak, not knowing what to say for a while.

……

There is sulfur ore next to it. The smell of this thing is a bit pungent. The old village chief measured it with his hands for a while, and finally gave up measuring how big it is. .

At the beginning, Charlie took out a piece of fist sized sulfur ore, and the caravan leader took out 3 Silver Coins for the reason. Then the sulfur ore lying in the canvas pocket is at least that piece of ore 100 Times, the old village chief knew that these must be worth a lot of money.

The five youngsters who went to collect sulfur mines all sat on the benches in the living room of the old village chief. Surdak and the old village chief sat on separate chairs opposite them.

The wife of the old village chief came out to make some lemon tea and a plate of boiled chestnuts.

"Should we sell these to the caravan?" Charlie said excitedly.

Surdak frowned slightly. He glanced at the old village chief and said: "Establishing a good trade relationship with the caravan. I think this is very necessary, but we can’t take out so much sulfur at once. Mine, I guess they will calculate the approximate scope of the sulfur mine based on the time we traveled. It is still a land of no ownership. I am worried that if someone else finds the open-pit mining area, more people may compete with us. The resources there."

"So we'd better take out a part of the sulfur mine, so that the merchants think we can find the sulfur mine, and it's not worth their effort to find..."
