The noise of the construction site could not distract Diya in the slightest, and she carefully rubbed the ropes in her hands to earn as much work as possible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAlthough a rope with a wrist thickness and a length of more than 20 yards is worth half a mileage, it already makes her very satisfied!

"A small can of bean soup that is enough for two big men to eat takes a half time, well, you also need a little black bread, and little Kari's body is still too weak!" Diya twisted the thin ropes she had woven in her hands with a rudimentary machine to form a long rope the thickness of her wrist. At the same time, he silently calculated in his heart how many ropes he would have to weave today to meet the food needs of today.

Rope weaving is not an easy task, although it seems to be much safer and easier than going out of town to clear farmland and log logs. But only when you really devote yourself to it can you know the hard work!

All the tools are a stick with a rope attached! It's a tool that gathers small ropes into thick ropes! The rest needs to be rubbed slowly.

Shaking his hand, relieving the pain and tension in his fingers and palms, Diya looked at the clearing not far away. There was a group of emaciated children playing there, and her son, Kari, was among them.

Kari, who was thinner than the average child, was holding a slightly curved wooden stick, and was saying something to another group of children with a serious expression, and then pointed forward with the wooden stick in his hand, and led the children to rush towards a heavily armed soldier, who looked like a general!

The soldier in fine leather armor and a covered helmet that made people look down on him was not annoyed either. Diya could even hear him laughing as he parryed the sticks with his shield! There is no doubt that the soldier guarding the hemp rope construction site also served as a nanny.

Praise be to the merciful lord! He and his soldiers were mostly kind to civilians. Looking at the frolicking soldiers and children, Diya somehow thought of a figure in full-body armor.

She can still remember that when she went to this great city, after her physical strength was exhausted, it was the man who walked on her back all day, regardless of the difference in status!

Dia's face flushed, as if she had thought of something, but she quickly adjusted. Because she understands that even if she doesn't mention the difference in identity, she is not worthy of the noble knight.

"Deya!" With a feeling of loss, Diya, who was about to continue her work, suddenly heard a shout.

Diya was stunned for a moment, turned her head and saw a chubby middle-aged woman, with a smile on her face immediately, and shouted affectionately: "Aunt Buddy! ”

Both Deya and Aunt Buddy are residents of Shining Gold Town, and even Deya's ex-husband Chloe is a distant relative of Aunt Buddy, because her husband is a regular soldier of the Stormwind Kingdom, and since they got married, Aunt Buddy has always taken care of her when she is alone at home, and they are very close.

It's just that when they fled, for some reason, they got separated in the West Spring Fortress, and it wasn't until Diya came to the City of Heroes that they found out that Aunt Badi had been waiting for her in the West Spring Fortress, so she met the merciful lord!

Although it was as difficult as following Xiao Yi to escape, she was able to eat food, plus she was the first batch of refugees to follow Xiao Yi, and her status and qualifications were very high, so Buddy was actually a little blessed in the generally thin refugee camp!

Smiling at Carlo playing with the soldiers, Buddy said kindly: "Little Carlo will definitely become a brave warrior like his father when he grows up." ”

"No, I don't want him to be a fighter." Diya smiled and shook her head, the long-term hardship of life made her forget the sadness of her husband's death in battle, but she didn't want to lose her son!

"I would prefer that he could be a farmer, eating the grain he grows and drinking the sweet vegetable soup."

"Alas!" Buddy sighed heavily, placing the crude basket in his hand beside Diya.

The basket was covered with a huge leaf, covering the contents of the basket, and Buddy whispered: "Today, the reserve army went out to hunt and brought back a lot of prey, the lord ate rabbits, I left some internal organs, made mixed soup for you and little Kari, and drank it quietly at night." ”

Quietly taking out the clay pot in the basket and putting it in her back basket full of miscellaneous items, Diya said with gratitude on her face, "Thank you so much, Aunt Buddy!" ”

"I just thought that little Kari is too thin and needs more nutrients."

"You and Little Kari may be my only relatives anymore, so you don't have to be so polite." As the oldest batch of refugees, Badi naturally won Xiao Yi's trust, and a large part of them became grassroots managers. Like Buddy, who used to be the chef of the Lion King's Pride Hotel in Shining Gold Town, she has become a servant in Xiao Yi's castle!

After a moment's hesitation, Buddy continued, "I see that the Sherif Guard has a good impression of you, if you can, you have to take the initiative to fight for it!" I'm sure even Chloe will bless you! ”

Dya's face flushed when Buddy said it, and she was a little embarrassed, and she said hurriedly: "Lord Sharif is very good to anyone, Aunt Buddy, you misunderstood!" ”

Then a look of gloom appeared on her face, but her tone was quite firm:

"I'm a widow, and I've done so many shameless things to feed Kari. I'm nothing special compared to the young girls who look up to him. Now I just want to raise Kari as an adult, and I have no other extravagant hopes. ”

......Just as Buddy was about to say something, the alarm bell on the arrow tower hurriedly remembered.

Hearing the sound of the alarm bell, Buddy's face changed drastically, and he pulled the mother and son who had gathered together and walked in the direction of the castle, not even letting Diya take the basket.

Along the way, there were people in a hurry, their faces full of panic, but fortunately, under the suppression and guidance of a large number of reserve troops, there was no confusion. They all honestly followed the reserve army to the gathering place, waiting for centralized protection.

As a servant of the castle and a refugee who had followed Xiao Yi for the longest time, Buddy was well known to many people, so the hurried members of the reserve army and mercenaries did not ask them why they did not follow the large army, and were not stopped by the guards until they came to the castle.

"Stop!"

Buddy wiped the sweat from his chubby face, and humbly said to the guard who personally guarded the castle because of the alarm: "My lord, I am a servant in the castle kitchen, and I came back when I heard the alarm. ”

"I know you, Aunt Buddy, the stew you make is delicious." The guard nodded, and although he was complimenting, the face under the mask was not smiling, and his stern gaze fell on Dia and Kari:

"But I don't know them! Why are they here? ”

Diya hugged Kari nervously, and Kari, who was still bravely fighting the soldiers just now, buried his head in his mother's arms at this time.

"This is my loved one, it's too dangerous outside the city, so ......"

"We have to think about the safety of your lord! No one is allowed to enter without permission! Whatever the reason! The guard interrupted Buddy harshly.

Just as he was about to ask the reservists who were helping to guard the city gate to send the mother and son away, Sharif hurriedly walked out of the castle, and when he passed by, he saw Diya and asked in surprise, "Lady Diya?" How did you end up here? ”

Nervous and shy, Diya didn't answer him, but the guard replied, "Sir, they are the relatives of Lady Buddy's cook, and they have tried to enter the castle for refuge, but I have refused!" ”

"Hmm." Sharif nodded, and said to Diya gently: "Don't worry, it's just that a scout has discovered that the gnolls are planning to take revenge on us, and the merciful and great lord has given me the order to lead the army to defeat these guys who don't know whether they are alive or dead." ”

Sharif didn't know whether it was intentional or not, his business was so big that people near the city gates heard him, and the undisciplined reservists even began to talk to each other!
