"I ...... Is that all right? ”
Wu Qingchen looked left and right, and the eyes of his parents and brothers were all focused on him, most of these eyes were happy and joyful, and a small part were surprised and confused.
"It's okay! It's okay! Los doesn't have to serve summer duty here...... That's good, that's good...... That's good, of course. ”
Unconsciously rubbing his hands, old William hurriedly affirmed, after a moment of joy, old William quickly had a burst of chaotic emotion in his mind, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
In the past half a month, Wu Qingchen has worked hard every day to complete his own work, desperately squeezing out a little bit of time, and then as soon as the tools are put down, he quickly runs to the church----
Of course, Old William saw all this, and even, after Wu Qingchen ran into the church, Old William also stood outside the church door and looked at it from a distance two or three times.
Just like when Wu Qingchen had just begun to change, the reason why Wu Qingchen ran to the church every day, Old William once again smoothly understood it as the story of a pedestrian on the side of the road, the whimsical fantasy of a young man.
Undoubtedly, William Sr. must have been quite unimpressed by the eccentric behavior that resulted from "stories" and "whimsical".
The 40 years of hard work have almost completely worn out William/Moore's ability to "fantasize" and "longing", and the current old William, even if he has a rare glimmer of "hope" and "wish" in his mind, the most arrogant part of it will not exceed the level of "no rain tomorrow", "less insects in the field", "hen lays one more egg".
Regarding Wu Qingchen's recent strange behavior, washing his face, washing his clothes, washing his teeth, praying and counting the strange behaviors of sweeping the church, old William always thought that this was Xiao Luo's envy of the old man's life, and took the trouble to imitate it, no matter when, he never thought that all this could really change Xiao Luos's life.
So, at this moment, when the change really happened, when the steward of Ifrett announced that little Rose would not have to take part in the most laborious summer service of the year, old William inevitably had a myriad of thoughts in his head.
William...... William ......"
As he was in his trance, he suddenly felt someone shake him, old William turned around, his wife Jacquelin handed over an iron catalpa, and Idra and Grace had already divided the tools.
William...... It's almost time to start...... Loos ...... "Holding an iron hoe, Jacqueline pointed to little Looth, who had his hands empty, with an inquiring look on his face.
"Loos...... Oh! Lowes! Old William turned his head sharply and looked at his third son: "Loos, your summer service is not here, go home first...... Don't fall asleep when you get home, it's almost time, go to church, don't miss Master Praia...... Why don't you go outside the church now, the rain is light anyway, and you can rest on the side of the stone wall of the church...... Or ...... Or you ......."
As he spoke, for no reason, all of a sudden, old William thought of the land to the east of the village, and of the last bit of work that had been working hard since dawn, but had not been able to finish until the second bell rang......
Old William knew quite well that the evening prayer in the church was still a long time away, and there was only a little work left in the field, and little Rose was now in the past, and with this time, even one person would definitely be able to finish it.
However, a few days ago, when little Loes ran to church every day, no matter how tired he was, he would always finish his work first, and never let himself help, and he finally had a little time to ......
Thinking so in his heart, Old William's voice lowered unconsciously, "Loos, or you...... Why don't you go to the east side of the village first, there is still a little work in the field, do you see if it is ...... Isn't it...... Can you go and see it first? ”
Next, old William saw that there was no hesitation, no hesitation, and no unhappy face, and in the face of what he had finally said after a long time, his third son, as usual when he heard any request from himself, nodded quickly, and simply responded:
"Yes, father."
For a long time, holding the catalpa, old William stood at the edge of the field, watching Little Rose round a few puddles, jumping over a few muddy spots, passing the holy talisman at the junction, and then paused, and walked on the path that led to the east of the village.
Old William just stood like this, quietly, until he lifted his trouser robe and carefully chose the little Los who was on the ground under his feet and gradually became farther away, until this strange and strange thin figure that always looked awkward on weekdays completely disappeared around the corner and could no longer be seen, that old William turned around and sighed silently.
Son, son.
----
Tragedy, tragedy.
I'll go for a while, and finally have some free time, and old William actually thought of the unfinished in the east of the village for the first time.
There were no onlookers around him, and Wu Qingchen's face was distorted, full of grief and indignation.
There is no way, in the three trainings that the earth world has received, the staff team has reiterated to Wu Qingchen again and again:
In the medieval world, several members of Wu Qingchen's family were Wu Qingchen's extremely valuable assets, and they were also key figures involved in countless future plans. On the premise of not affecting his own safety, Wu Qingchen must do his best to make friends with family members; At the same time, on the premise of not affecting his own safety, Wu Qingchen must meet the requirements of family members as much as possible.
Satisfy the ...... as much as possible Satisfy the ...... as much as possible
Tragedy......
Two hours later, Wu Qingchen, who dragged his tired body and ran alone to the east of the village, finally met the requirements of his family members ---- finished the rest of his work out of breath.
After resting for a while and looking at the sky, Wu Qingchen turned out a few stones, picked up a few branches, and hastily calculated the current time.
Luckily, it's pretty early.
Sitting on the edge of the ridge to rest, Wu Qingchen began to habitually plan: the summer service lasts for a long time, if you can have more time every day like today, you can rest by yourself, just to create a lot of tools suggested by the coaching staff.
In this case, the materials I prepared a few days ago seem to be a little insufficient.
So, after resting, Wu Qingchen walked to his three secret kitchens and storage rooms, checked the various materials he had prepared, re-kneaded the shape of a few small pottery that he was preparing to fire a while ago, and collected some suitable wood, stone chips, rosin, and so on and so forth......
Call...... Finish another piece of ......
Putting down another treated plank, Wu Qingchen looked at the humble leaf stone timer next to him, the shadow of the branch was only the last little distance from the scratched notch.
All right...... It's almost Vespers time......
Putting away all the messy handmade materials in front of him, Wu Qingchen straightened up, stretched his body, and looked around at the same time to make sure that nothing was missing, before finally climbing up the small slope next to him and disappearing at the edge of the woods.
Ten minutes later, Wu Qingchen walked to the church.
Little Andre had once again begun to clean the altar, Wu Qingchen smiled, picked up the broom, and began to do his own work.
Sweeping, praying, teaching.
Quietly completing all this, when Praia put away the parchment and was about to turn away, Wu Qingchen took a step forward, bowed his head slightly, and bowed to the priest.
"Thank you, pastor."
"Huh?" Praia paused, his expression a little suspicious.
"Pastor, in the afternoon Steward Ifrett told me that this year I don't have to work in the fields, and that the work in the church is my summer service...... Thank you, pastor......"
"Oh? Is the summer service starting today? ......" Praia put away the parchment roll and smiled slightly: "I forgot to tell you about the work and the summer service." After all, that was a few days ago......"
"Thank you...... Pastor ......"
"Well, okay, you can go home." Praia nodded, "If you have time to recite the holy words, you don't need to thank me, everything is the glory of the Lord, 'The closer your heart is to the Lord, the closer the Lord's gaze is to you.'" ’”
"Grass cannot grow without mud, and barley cannot germinate without water."
"Good, good, good." Hearing Wu Qingchen's answer, Praia's smile became more and more kind, "Go home, go back." ”
Looking at Wu Qingchen's small figure and leaving the church, the pastor was still smiling, "Not bad...... Not bad...... What a smart kid. ”
The priest's voice was not loud, but little Andre just heard it clearly, and he couldn't help but raise his head, his face full of joy: "Thank you, pastor." ”
"Haha, yes, yes, you're a smart kid too."
Praia burst out laughing.
"The closer your heart is to the Lord, the closer the Lord's gaze is to you. Everything is the brilliance of the master. ”
"Grass cannot grow without mud, and barley cannot germinate without water. Thank you, Pastor. ”
The more I thought about these two answers, the more proud and satisfied Praia became.
The understanding of the sacred scriptures is so deep, and the learning of digital sundials is so smooth......
Maybe this little guy is too wasteful to put in front of the big-nosed parish deacon to pretend to be?
