Seiun wo Kakeru

Agie called Dante and Catalina on the shelves, who had kept them waiting, as she left Pietro to do the work.

The two of us who don't usually touch the production that we can do is a rare experience of entering this place in itself.

For that reason, he was looking around for a moment and throwing a rare glance.

Age took the knife out of the box she had placed on the shelf and showed it to both of them.

One was made by Age herself.

The other, about ten.

It's not Age's work, it's a collection that shows Pietro's history from the first time to the present.

Age arranged a total of eleven pieces on the desk.

Now, after a good amount of time about this job, will the two of you see the difference?

With a little anticipation, Agee inquired.

"I'm going to ask the two of you to make something like this, but first, let me show you what I made and what Pietro has made so far. Do you know which one is mine?

"This must be it."

"I think this is it too"

"Right, you're right. What made you think that?

'Cause you have a beautiful shape.'

"It looks kind of tight."

The good and the bad can largely be inferred from the appearance.

Tools especially for practicality have a strong tendency to do so.

Age takes and touches the toilet.

It conveys a sober feeling.

The edges made by Age are thinner and smoother and thinner and pointed at sharp corners.

Pietro makes a slightly dull impression compared to that.

If I avoided the blade and glanced at it with my fingers, the smoothness of its surface also made a subtle and crisp difference.

Teach fine observations such as touch and shade as well as patchy differences in appearance.

"This is the first one Pietro made. And as you keep making it, do you see you're gradually getting better at it?

"Ha. This is bullshit."

"Dante, I'll leave your work, too, so that the juniors who come one day won't laugh at me, like you do now"

"Whew. Seriously..."

You can't grow up laughing at people at all.

Age and Catalina laughed when they saw Dante distorted his face bitterly.

After deciding to assign work to his disciples, Age left the blacksmith once.

We're heading to Fernando's place of work.

As always, the fragrance of freshly ground trees is plentiful, calming nature and heart.

If you look at the nicely chopped wood or the lumber that has been hung up, you can see that Fernando is definitely increasing his skill as a carpenter.

I can't just leave it to my disciples, either.

Thomas greeted me as Age stood at the entrance to the office.

Unlike the tall Fernando, Thomas is tall enough for Age to look up a little.

In this village it would be second only to Filippo, Dante.

"Long time no see, Mr. Age"

"Thomas, how have you been?

"Yeah. I don't have a nagging parent, so I let him stretch and work. Oh, please keep this to yourself."

Contrary to his tall height, Thomas is still childish in his remarks.

Thomas will take you and show you to Fernando.

Fernando noticed Age and welcomed her well.

It was full of powder and scraps of all-body wood, and I knew exactly how busy it was moving.

"How are things going at work?

"Thomas was doing a great job, but I still have a lot of work to do that I can't do without. What about your place?

"It's something similar. It's been a while since I've been in business."

"We're in a lot of trouble."

The busiest in the village now would be Age and Fernando.

In addition to his original job, he's wearing two pairs of grass shoes called diplomacy.

I'd like to make some calculations during the winter months until I can't move.

That's why Age was distressed by the story to come.

"By the time the carpenter comes from the village of Mostri, can I ask for a job?

"Depends on the content. What kind of work?

"I want you to renovate our house. To be precise, I want you to separate the living space from the livestock room entirely by a wall."

"There was a partition originally."

"Yeah. You just want to wall that compartment,"

"Well then, I'll just add a little bit, won't I? But won't it get cold in the winter?

"The space in the room will be narrower, so there will be some thermal insulation, which should be offset"

During the winter months, livestock body temperature serves as heating.

Without hygiene, it's very economical to reduce the amount of firewood.

But in the case of Age's house, the unsanitary can cause fatal problems.

"You're about to give birth, aren't you?

"What's that?

"What... oh well"

Age briefly described puerperal fever.

Very weak immunity during childbirth and increased risk of mothers and babies due to infections, etc.

Cleanliness becomes a major problem in particular, and living with livestock increases infection rates.

To that end, we should build a maternity home, a place dedicated to childbirth.

"Can you really help me die in childbirth that way?

"I'm not saying it's complete. But it will definitely be better than it is now. I can assure you that."

"Then you should do it."

Currently, an average of about six births are taking place to raise two children to adulthood.

Birth is a very burdensome event for mothers.

If you have many children, you will suffer from various sores if your body is not so firm.

Now that the food problem is being solved, if we get through early childhood, we should see a considerable increase in the birth rate.

With such issues in the background, Fernando was listening seriously to Age's suggestion.

"I wish I could build a midwifery home, but I just got back, can I afford to build a house?

"When is Tania due to give birth?

"I think it will be before this winter"

"That's impossible. You've only got a few months."

"Right. That's why I want a wall in my house. Tania is a little slower than other women, so I want her to give birth safer."

"... ok. I still have time, and when I'm done with my current business, I'll take care of the house."

"Regards"

"It's just that this isn't just about your house anymore. Who was pregnant this year..."

Fernando names the villagers.

There were also names of people who didn't see Age very often.

"Is it going to be possible to have all the houses?

"Um, I guess I'll ask for more downwork. Either way, if we're going to have more kids in the future, we'll definitely need a carpenter in the long run."

A certain number of children die, which is why the number of houses is constant.

If there are more large families, that branch will also need to be increased.

In that case, we need to build a house even if we don't want to.

"I'll call the village chief."

"More or less, I'm getting more work, Age, because you're involved."

"You're right."

If they say so, I don't want to admit it.

Age to plan is tough too, but Fernando, who is following me, will have more difficulty than that.

With the exception of Tania, Agie lowered her head lightly as she thanked the man in front of her most arduous.
