078 New Homes
Lawrence and Andrew returned to the mountain.
Sariel had already prepared the food and chatted casually after everyone had sat down to eat.
"We were waiting for news from you in town that day, and Emma came back first to tell us about it."
"Emma was given salt and meat, as well as clothes for adults and children, and she was very happy when she returned."
Sariel said about the past two days, because she knew from Emma that Andrew and Lawrence were fine, so she didn't have any excessive emotions when the two came back this time.
Andrew ate quietly and listened quietly to Sariel's story.
Lawrence also ate quietly, listening and watching the father-daughter pair's performance.
As an outsider, Lawrence knew that these two days might be the last time Andrew and Saliel spent together.
Andrew himself knows it, but Sariel doesn't.
Sariel would have objected to Andrew's adventures outside, wanting him to stay and live the same peaceful life as before.
So Andrew didn't let Lawrence say that.
"Lawrence, it's time for you to work in the mountains."
Andrew noticed Lawrence's observation and reminded him to get out of here for a while.
Lawrence nodded, "Okay, Sophia with me." ”
When Sariel heard this, she quickly said: "I'm also with me, and the affairs of the family are handed over to my father, Lawrence used a lot of wood to burn charcoal last time, and father, you go and cut down trees to replenish some wood." ”
Lawrence said directly: "I use the wood, and when I come back, pull some down from the mountain, where there is a lot of wood that can be used as fuel." ”
Saliel smiled, "It's okay, he's idle, otherwise he's going to drink again." ”
Andrew got up and walked outside, "I'll do it." ”
Lawrence wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it, and went on to do his own thing.
Sariel has no ill intentions, just like a normal girl who doesn't like some of the bad habits of her parents.
In other words, Andrew would just smile helplessly, verbally agree or skip the topic.
With regard to other people's family matters, as well as his knowledge of Andrew, Lawrence knew that this kind of life would only make Andrew more and more uncomfortable.
Andrew is different from himself, he is not the kind of person who likes to live a peaceful life, he has strength, but also has an arrogant wildness.
"Sariel, you should help at home today, and Sophia and I will be fine."
Lawrence still didn't want Sariel to follow her up the mountain, and seriously advised her not to follow.
Sariel looked at Lawrence with a puzzled expression, "Why?" Did I do something that you hated? ”
Lawrence shook his head and reminded: "After your father came back, I didn't talk to him properly, I would sleep with Sophia in my arms after every big war, and sometimes people need partners and family very much, and they need a hug." ”
Sarriel laughed: "My father is not a man like you, he is the most powerful warrior, the most courageous man!" ”
Lawrence felt that Sariel was right, "No matter what, I don't want you to go up the mountain with me today, so how about today?" ”
Sariel looked at Lawrence strangely, "Just today?" ”
Lawrence nodded, "Just today." ”
"Okay." Sariel said helplessly: "Although I don't know what you have to do, but only today, I am not the kind of girl who is not sensible." ”
Sariel thought that there should be something wrong with Lawrence and Sophia, and although she was not happy, she agreed to allow it.
Lawrence did what he could, and then took Sophia up the hill with him.
Two sheep are led today, one is Lawrence's own domestic, and the other is Sariel's domes.
The two sheep were carrying flintstones, iron pots, bacon, clay pots, wooden planks, and iron tools.
The thatched stone house like a cylindrical granary has been almost built, and obvious traces of stacking can be seen around the stone house, and the irregular stones form a neat and orderly three-dimensional building.
Lawrence pushed open the wooden door and looked at the quiet, clammy soil inside.
The cold wind that poured in from the windows blew away a lot of moisture, and the light coming in from the windows and the entrance to the door was not very bright, and the whole room still looked a little drowsy.
But this is also normal, even if it is Andrew's house, the day is not so bright.
Sophia stood beside Lawrence and watched the quiet room.
"Master, are we sleeping here today?"
Lawrence smiled, "Not bad, great idea!" Let's clean up the place first and put everything in. ”
"Good!" Sophia happily agreed, and took the initiative to lead the two domes into the house.
The stone house was more than four meters long on the front and back, left and right, and it originally looked not small, but after bringing the two sheep in, Lawrence found that the house was still small.
"In addition to where we slept and ate, then put tools and food, a dom sheep, four pigs, and chickens and sheep, and it felt a bit crowded."
Lawrence didn't expect that he would have so much property, and when he built the stone house, he only thought about the things of that time.
Sophia comforted: "It's okay, it's warmer this way!" Everyone can live warmly. ”
After being comforted by Sophia, Lawrence was really in a good mood.
"Sophia is right, you come and make a fire, and I'll pull the two sheep to the window."
"Good!"
The two began to work together, and Lawrence unloaded the Dom sheep, and after losing the pressure of the goods, the two Dom sheep quickly lay down near the hay and began to eat.
The sheep were fed in advance when they came in the morning, and now the two sheep have found a comfortable place to digest their ruminant food quietly after they are able to rest.
The colder the weather, the more obedient the domes become.
The flames quickly swayed from a handful of hay, and Sophia placed it in the fireplace in the corner, close to the bed, and the floor had already been cleaned.
After the branches were placed on top of the flames, the flames quickly climbed from the branches to the pile, forming a fire that was not easy to extinguish.
Sophia happily looked at the warm fire, crouched in front of the fireplace and broke the branches, and put them aside to add to them.
After unloading the goods, Lawrence took the planks and approached the window, the thickness of the window is the thickness of the wall, because there is a thickness of more than a meter in the middle, Lawrence can prepare two window panels.
One is a grid-shaped wooden board placed outside, and a fence made of long wooden sticks that are as thick as chopsticks can be cleaned to prevent birds and small animals from crawling in, and can also block the cold wind to a certain extent.
The other is an enclosed square wooden bench, which can be stuffed directly into the house and stuck, and can also be used as a bench during the day.
There are many mountains in the area, and it seems to be standing on top of the mountain, but there are actually many mountains around it, so you don't have to worry about strong winds.
After doing this, Lawrence began to go out and inspect the previous shack.
The shack has long been crushed by the heavy snow, but the materials inside can come in handy.
Lawrence used the shed's shed as a gate, and together with Sophia, collected the remaining wood into the house.
After removing the hut covered in snow, half a bag of soil was found that had not been used before.
The soil had been frozen hard, and Lawrence found it useless to move in, so he found some hay to cover it.
A warm place to sleep at night was needed, so in the afternoon Lawrence and Sophia built a small bed out of planks and hoisted the iron pot from the roof.
Ovens, hanging pots, fires, houses, sheep and bacon hanging from the roof, beds with animal skin mattresses, and pea-cured meat boiling in pots.
Lawrence stood in the doorway and watched the sun gradually set, not panicking at all.
There is no need to rush down the mountain anymore.
