At the dinner party on the night of the harvest festival, the old village chief drank a little too much, and was carried home by his youngest son, Charlie.

The campfires were running out, and only when the night breeze blew did there be a faint glow in the ashes.

Selena and a few village women washed the stove next to the central square of the village, pulled the large iron pot out of the stove, and moved it into the village storehouse, where a few drunken villagers sat by the campfire, pulling out a piece of charred cassava from the ashes that were about to be extinguished, and the last bit of ale in the wine glasses beside them, as if they wanted to drink the ale dry before going home.

The drunken villagers chatted without a word:

"I said that this ale tastes really good, I have tasted it in the city of Highlandsa before, but this one tastes better, and I think this thing is the most delicious with the meat and wheat cakes, and the people in the city like to eat chickpeas and peanuts......"

“…… It's all thanks to the Surdak knights. An elderly village man said casually.

"This year's year is good, in recent days into the mountain harvest is also a lot, before the wild radish and sour pear, mountain dates, hawthorn in the mountain even if you see these dare not pick hard, for fear that there is no way to carry out from the mountain, if you have strength, who does not pick up rice and mushrooms!"

"Since there is a four-wheeled carriage and then look at it, but the carriage is loaded with mountain goods, the four carriages have to run a few times back and forth into the mountain pass every day, the four-wheeled carriage is expensive, if it is too hard, it will be troublesome if it breaks, and everyone in the village will repair ......."

The night in the village is extraordinarily quiet, many villagers are reluctant to light oil lamps in order to save, if there is no such dinner party at night, everyone usually goes to bed early, and soon after the villagers are gone, only a mess is left in the village square.

In the past, Selena would rush to pack up and go home early, preferring to save the cleaning work until tomorrow rather than stay too late in the square, because there were always some idlers who couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, wandering around the village square, occasionally sneaking at her, making her feel uncomfortable, and some of the brave would follow her all the way to her door.

After this year's harvest dinner, Selena deliberately dragged it to the end, she wiped the wooden square table clean with a rag, and from time to time her eyes glanced at Surdak who was drinking with a group of young people, Signa was already leaning on the stove and falling asleep, she had eaten a little too much tonight, Selena was worried that she would accumulate food, and gave her a glass of hawthorn water, but now she was not in a hurry to go back to the deserted stone house.

When little Peter began to get sleepy, Sheila Sr. carried little Peter home with Rita and Natasha.

After the harvest festival, the bricklayers from all villages will rush to Vol Village one after another, and the construction of the reservoir will start soon, and tomorrow they will organize people to pull volcanic ash on the edge of Pubao Mountain, and grind those loose limestones, which require some manpower and material resources.

The old village chief was drunk, Charlie carried the old village chief home, there were only Luke and Val and a few other people left, Surdak found that Selena was still there, so he beckoned to her, Selena tucked the blanket rolled up on Signa's body, tidied up her somewhat loose hair, untied the long skirt tied to her body, and then walked over quickly.

Selena wore a long skirt of thick wool and a woolen sweater, and her steps were brisk, trying not to swing her waist, because she felt that only a dissolute woman would twist her hips vigorously when she walked, and she did not want to be thought of by Surdak as that kind of woman.

Dressed only in a linen shirt, tight-legged breeches and riding boots, and with his sleeves folded to reveal his stout arms, which were covered with hideous scars, Surdak took the initiative to stand up and go around behind her, pull out the chair for her, and invite her to sit down.

"It just so happens that you are also here, we were just discussing the construction of a reservoir in the village, and the specific construction plan has been decided, but at the moment we need to count and pay salaries, I think you can do this......"

Selena tilted her head, lifted her white chin, and looked at Surdak with a look of adoration, at this moment she felt that the way he was discussing things was simply charming, she didn't even hear what Surdak was saying, anyway, he was telling her to do something tomorrow, and she was willing to do anything for him.

Several young people felt that this atmosphere was not suitable to continue talking about the reservoir, so they made excuses and ended the discussion hastily.

The soft moonlight sprinkled between the mountains, sprinkled on the fields of Wall Village, sprinkled on the reedy mudflats below Wall Village, along the path in the village, Surdak carried the sleeping Signa in front, Selena followed behind Surdak, the moonlight left a dark shadow on the ground, she stretched out her foot to step on Surdak's shadow.

The shadow kept moving forward, and she happily chased after it......

Selena had always felt that the road from the village square to her home was too long, and that it would take a long time to get back home, but now she found that the road was too short, and when Surdak stopped, she almost knocked him on the back.

Surdak handed the sleeping Signa to Selena, then took Selena's slippery face in his hand and kissed her on the sexy lips.

Selena hoped that Surdak would stay, even if it was very domineering or she couldn't wait to pull her into the stone house, but Surdak whispered to her, "Good night!" ”

"Good night!" Selena's voice was weak.

Surdak stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched Selena enter the stone house, before turning around and leaving along the village road.

Selena carried Signa back to the stone house and put her back on the wooden bed on the upper floor, Signa licked her soft lips and turned over on the bed, Selena casually covered her with a quilt.

The moonlight outside the window was like snow, Selena sat on the wooden bed full of loss, at this time she suddenly heard a tuk tuk knock at the door of the courtyard, her heart suddenly moved, she ran out of the stone house quickly, just saw Surdak leaning against the courtyard wall, with a faint smile to her said: "Kind lady, would you like to take in a ......?"

Before Surdak could finish speaking, Selena rushed out of the doorway, wrapped her arms around Surdak's neck, and hung herself on top of him.

Selena closed her eyes and sniffed the faint smell of soap deep above him......

"Hey...... Do we have to stay at the door like this all the time? Surdak's voice rang in her ears.
