Chapter 3 Settlement
The next day, when Bert arrives at Oren's room, Oron is still asleep. After all, the experiences of these days are too rich and too fantastical for him. And these days on the road has not been a good rest, the whole person is still adapting.
"It's time to get up, Oron. Get up and pack up, and I'll take you to my place of work to have a look. ”
"Got it, uncle, I'll be up in a minute."
"Okay, then you can clean up quickly. I'll be waiting for you outside. ”
……
By the time Oron had packed up his things and came out, Bert had been waiting outside for a while, still holding something in his hand.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the bazaar for a bite to eat. Then I'll take you to the place where I work, after all, you're going to work there in the future, so get acquainted with it first. ”
"Got it, uncle."
The two of them walked to the bazaar, came to a stall and ordered two breakfasts, and then Bert spoke to Oron, who was sitting in front of him.
"Oren, listen well when you get to the place, your mouth is sweeter, I'll take you here these days to familiarize yourself with it more, you must learn more, you know? I'm going to introduce you to a few more people, all of whom work in this blacksmith shop. There's my boss, and my friends. When you get there, you must put your attitude and sweeten your mouth, you know? ”
"Uh-huh, uncle. I know. ”
Oron nodded vigorously.
After the two of them had eaten. Then Bert took Oron to the end of a street. Before I got there, I heard a thudding sound not far away, and the shouts of several men. The two of them walked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw a well-dressed man standing in front of the door of the blacksmith's shop, patrolling back and forth. When Bert saw this, he walked up briskly and said to the man.
"Boss, why are you here today?"
The men looked back at Bert in amazement, and they replied.
"Oh, it's Bert, you're back? Come and take a look today. ”
"This is my nephew, I want him to come to our blacksmith shop as an apprentice and learn some skills."
Bert pointed at Oron and said with some apprehension.
"Okay, then let him follow you!"
"Thank you, boss."
"Little things."
"Oren, this is my boss, Mr. Ender."
Bert said to Oron.
"Hello Boss Ender!"
Oron screamed nervously. This person will be his own boss in the future, and he will inevitably be a little nervous in his heart.
"Well, if you're as old as my son, call me uncle! In the future, I will work well with your uncle here. I still have a few orders that have not been processed, Bert, you can take your nephew to familiarize yourself, and I will go over first. ”
"Okay, boss, then you get busy first."
Watching Ander slowly walk away, the two of them turned around.
"Oren, let's go, and introduce you to a few more people, all of whom are my friends who work in the blacksmith's shop. Remember to call uncle, got it! ”
"Uh-huh, got it, uncle."
Bert led Oron to the door of the blacksmith shop and said to a muscly man with a ruddy face on the outside.
"Feige, this is my nephew, I told you, I'll take him here to take a look. Just call him Oron. ”
"You're back, you've exhausted me these days, you need to treat me to a good drink." Oh! Little Oren, your uncle often mentions you to me. If there is anything you don't understand in the future, come and ask me, don't be embarrassed, Bert's nephew is my nephew. Got it? ”
Fei Ge said loudly to the two of them when he saw them.
"Don't worry, you will definitely be indispensable, and I will arrange a good meal for you in a few days. Come to Oren, call him uncle, and treat him like me in the future, and never be polite to him. Brought you something good, take it. ”
With that, Bert handed the package to Feigo.
"What is this?"
Fei Ge was a little surprised!
"Good stuff, it's going to be opened when you get home."
"Mysterious."
"Call uncle, Oron."
"Uncle Feigo is good."
Oron stood behind Bert and shouted shyly.
"Then you get busy first, and I'll take him in to have a look."
"Well, go ahead, don't forget my wine."
"Don't worry, I won't forget you."
Later, Bert introduced him to several other people with Oron, who also had a general idea of the place.
"You've been following me for the past few days to get acquainted with it."
Bert took Oron to a house and said to him.
"I'll take you to a place where you can learn to read in a few days. It's not enough to have strength, you have to learn to read. You'll have a bigger chance in the future. ”
"I see, uncle."
……
In this way, Oren followed Bert here for a few days to get acquainted.
On this day, Bert took Oron to a school not far from the blacksmith's shop. This is a teacher hired by the owner of the blacksmith shop. Because the blacksmiths who work here have some children who are about the same age as Oren, and the boss also has a child, he also gives these blacksmiths some benefits, so that their children can also come here to study.
"You familiarize yourself with it here. Remember, only with more knowledge will you have a greater way out in the future. Got it! ”
Bert earnestly admonished.
"Well, I see, uncle, I will definitely study hard."
"Good boy, I believe in you, go, I'll take you to see it, you'll be learning to read and write here from tomorrow." Be sure not to disappoint me and your parents' expectations. ”
"I will, uncle."
Bert walked in with Oren. Lead Oron to a house. Pushing the door in, I saw an old man with gray hair sitting there reading a book.
Bert said respectfully to the old man.
"Mr. Stere. This is my nephew Oren. In the future, he will learn from you, please take care of it. ”
As he spoke, the old man put down his book and looked at Oren. Then he said to Bert.
"Oh, your nephew, all right! Let him come over tomorrow! I'll treat everyone equally, don't worry. ”
Bert then spoke to Mr. Sterei before leading him to a larger room and speaking to him.
"This is where you will learn in the future, take a look at it and get acquainted with it. I'll bring you back tomorrow. ”
"Yes, uncle."
That night, as Oron lay in bed, his mind raced. He couldn't calm down at all, because he was going to work and study here in the future, and this was also the place where he began to change his fate, which made him excited. He made up his mind that he must change his destiny and get ahead so that his parents can live a good life. In this way, I fell asleep in a fantasy.
The next day. Bert led Oron to the Academy. Came to the house I had seen yesterday, and said to Mr. Stelai standing inside.
"Oren will leave it to you, Mr. Stelai."
"Well, I know, you go and get busy, he'll leave it to me here."
"I'm sorry for you, Mr. Stere."
After explaining to Oren, Bert slowly walked to the blacksmith's shop.
"Oren, huh?"
Mr. Strley asked.
"Yes, Mr. Stley, my name is Oren."
"Come in!"
Sterley said to him.
"Students, this is your new classmate, called Oren, and you will study together in the future. You can sit somewhere. ”
"Yes sir."
……
After dinner that day, Bert and Oron sat down and chatted. Oron asked Bert suddenly.
"Uncle, when can I work in the blacksmith shop?"
When Bert heard this, he was astonished and replied.
"What? Do you want to work now? You'd better learn more Braille in the school first! There's no rush yet. ”
"Uncle, I remember most of what Mr. Zi said in the school. And the school is only studying in the morning, and there is nothing to do in the afternoon. ”
"Oh, is that so? Okay, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it, so you can go to the academy in the morning and come to the blacksmith shop in the afternoon. I'll take you to find out first. ”
"Yes, uncle."
The next afternoon, when Oron arrived at the blacksmith's shop, Bert was forging a piece of reddish iron. Sparks flowed through, and the nearby stove illuminated Oren's face red. Bert then stopped what he was doing and said to Oron.
"You take a look here first, and then I'll tell you something specific, you can start with me and get in touch slowly!"
"Got it, uncle."
"And you're still young now, your body is just starting to grow, doing too much work will not be good for you in the future, just give me a hand first, exercise, and wait until your body is well before you start exercising."
"I listen to your uncle."
"I'll explain to you again these iron-striking skills, and you need to learn more. You can't ignore your studies in the school, you know? ”
"I know, uncle, I won't forget the things in the school."
"Well, that's good, then you can watch it first!"
……
In this way, Oren also began to slowly get used to life here, and gradually settled here.
