Sheila gave Peter a free look at Surdak and then said to Rita Natasha.
"He will stay in our house after making close friends in Duckfield, but don’t tell Peter his true identity for the time being, and then we will call him Duckfield in private."
"got it"
Rita and Natasha answered together.
It seems that there is still a lot of talk in old Sheila’s house. She paused and said again and again
"I’ll go to the village chief and ask for some boards later. We have to repair the woodshed again. This kind of air leakage situation is not acceptable, and we should change our residence after a window in the wall. This condition is available at home for the time being."
"Rita, you come with me," Sheila said to Rita.
"hmm!" Rita holding the wooden bowl nodded and replied.
Just like chestnut rice porridge in a wooden bowl is so delicious that she can’t bear to look up.
Her face is white, her hair is golden, and her eyes are like a quiet lake.
Sheila turned to Natasha on the other side and said, "Natasha, you stay at home and take care of Peter and tidy up the woodshed casually."
Surdak doesn’t know exactly how to face Natasha. Although Natasha is still his wife in name, until now he doesn’t know anything about Natasha. He has been deliberately avoiding Surdak, but thinking about it is such an embarrassing position that two people don’t know what to say face to face …
"Good" Natasha’s voice is a little hoarse, which doesn’t match her weak appearance. She is like an ostrich with her head buried in the sand.
Old Sheila looked up at Surdak and tried to keep her voice calm without losing her majesty, making her look more like a householder.
She said to Surdak, "Tak, you need to cut some red thatch from the river bend and come back. The roof needs to be covered with a thick layer of red thatch again, otherwise, once it rains, this stone house will not be able to live."
It’s time to have a good repair’ Surdak looked at this crude stone house and thought in his heart.
But then he remembered that these things should be arranged by men in this family, so he straightened his chest and put the wooden bowl in his hand and said to Sheila, "Sheila, I’ll go to the village chief and leave all these things to me. I think … I will do better if I leave these things to me."
Seeing Surdak’s face calm, old Sheila thought for a moment and agreed to Surdak’s proposal "Well …"
Old Sheila looked at Surdak across the street. His appearance overlapped again and again in his memory, which made old Sheila feel a little trance.
"When you come with me, I have something to say to you." Old Sheila turned away from the dining table and went back to the granary and bedroom.
“……”
Surdak had already finished eating when he came. When he heard old Sheila say this, he immediately followed.
At this time, little Peter staggered out of the room with a cassava in his arms, and old Sheila was worried that Peter would fall and hurried to hold him, then handed him over to Natasha.
Surdak came to the old Sheila’s room, and Sheila laboriously pulled out the bag of gold coins from the bed. She put the gold coin bag in front of Surdak and said
"Don’t hide gold coins in cassava piles in the future. I’m not going to protect these things for you."
Surdak was embarrassed and scratched his head. When he left these gold coins, he thought that if he left, he could give the old Sheila family a little living security, but now he has been left. Surdak can bite the bullet and say
"These are duck in his army …"
But before he finished, he was interrupted by old Sheila’s words.
"This little duck who doesn’t lie to me can’t have so much money. Although our family is a little poor, we won’t take things that are not ours."
Surdak felt that he should make up a more reasonable reason and said
"This is our second team hunting Warcraft slay evil spirits to get …"
Old Sheila took a deep look at Surdak, and the warning in her eyes was already obvious. Although she is a country woman with little knowledge, it doesn’t mean that she is a lovely fool. Old Sheila said, "If it is the whole team, you should find a way to distribute the money to their families."
Surdak thinks that once he agrees to come and collect hundreds of gold coins, he will be divided into thirteen points. Although he doesn’t mind giving some financial assistance to his family in the second team, it doesn’t mean that he is willing to share such a large amount of gold coins equally. He is also selfish.
“……”
"The money is your own, right?" Old Sheila stared at Surdak and asked seriously.
Surdak nodded, but his horse said, "It’s me and Dudak."
Seeing him so persistent, the hard ice in old Sheila’s eyes finally melted a little bit. Old Sheila couldn’t help but ask, "What are you willing to help us?"
"It was your son who turned me out from the body of the evil spirits and later took me to the barracks of the 57th regiment to take care of me for three months. At that time, I heard him tell me all day that he was going to retire. When he retired, he would take me back to Hailanza, no matter whether I could get better or not. Later, I gradually got better. We waited for him to retire and return to Hailanza. I didn’t join the 57th Heavyweight Infantry Regiment …"
Surdak had to tell those experiences again.
"… it was unexpected that he was chosen by Baron Sidney by chance to be promoted from an ordinary first-class soldier to a small captain and later to a mid-team leader to be awarded the official knighthood of the Green Empire."
After listening to these stories carefully, old Sheila’s eyes darkened, probably because she remembered her old eyes and blinked away the tears. She said to Surdak, "Maybe you are curious about our family life, but I am very glad that you can come here to visit me anyway. You should have your own life regardless of those promises …"
"I’m going to talk to the village chief about repairing the bedroom." Surdak quickly got up and said to old Sheila.
Then he turned and ran out …
Chapter 222 Visit the village head
The villagers’ residences in Woer Village are not dense. Nearly 50 villagers are distributed along the stream. In the ravine of this stream, it stretches for nearly three kilometers. Except for some barren fields, there are some simple stone houses on both sides. The Suldak family is located in the stream, which is not far from the beach at the bend of the river.
And the village chief Brett’s residence is located at the highest point of this ravine, which is the most swim of this brook.
Although Woer Village is a rather barren mountain village, there are only more than 50 civilians living here, but this small mountain village still has a very strict hierarchy. The higher the status of people in Woer Village, the more they live in rivers and streams, and the closer they are to swimming, the more convenient the water is.
Especially in the dry season, when the spring water from the spring is insufficient and the rainfall is abundant.
At this time, it will be more convenient for residents to live in the news tour, and the fields on both sides of the river will be fully irrigated.
Go along the narrow path in the village. Surdak rode by in the morning. He also saw the stone house built by the village chief Brett. It is a spire house with a thick red thatched roof. Although it doesn’t look like a two-story building, there is a small glass window on the red thatched roof. It should be a small attic.
This house is raised high enough. The whole house is made of lime rock strips and wooden window frames. It looks very strong. There is a simple fence outside the house, and there are some hens in a fence. It looks like one of the best houses in the village.
The name of village chief Brett was told to herself by Sheila earlier.
Old Sheila also told Surdak that the village chief prefers young people to call him Uncle Brett, which is almost always the case in the village.
The fence outside the village chief Surdak’s house is covered with plum beans. These plum beans are covered with purple flowers and dense green leaves. There are pods hidden inside. The wooden fence door pushes the fence. Walking along the path, I see the village chief Brett sitting at the door of the stone house with a sickle in his hand and cutting a wooden stick. Two young people are sitting next to him with a knife in their hands. When the wooden stick approaches, they find that it is actually a hardwood longbow carcass.
The difference between this kind of hardwood bow and military alloy bow is that there is no metal bow with stronger toughness. The hardwood bow is determined by the toughness of the hardwood body material, which belongs to the common hunting bow range.
It seems that these two young people are learning the craft of making hardwood bows with village chief Brett.
Village head Brett’s hair is gray and his face is wrinkled. He always likes to squint at people, probably because he was a hunter when he was young.
Hearing the footsteps at the door, a blue hound jumped out of the woodshed and bit at Surdak’s calf with interest.
Village head Brett quickly called "Carla, come back!"
Hearing the master’s call, the hunting dog made an emergency stop and immediately turned around and wagged his head and ran to the long legs of Brett Village.
Only then did the old village chief see that Surdak was busy greeting him. "It’s Little Dudak. Come and sit in the village. Are you used to living in the village?"
"Not bad!" Surdak came and found a wooden pier to sit on.
