Early in the morning, Lawrence got up and began to wash his face and brush his teeth, and went out to warm up.

While practicing swinging his sword with a stick, Lawrence thought about what had happened when he woke up this morning.

"Won't witches snore? Is it an accident or necessity that Kehalan will not snore after drinking, and Delen after drinking and sleeping? ”

Thinking about strange things, Lawrence quickly finished his workout and went to wash his face again, feeling much refreshed.

Today, the sun rises early, and there is no trace of snow on the nearby hillside, but you can still see the traces of winter at a glance.

Reglo walked over.

"Master, we're going to hunt in Wuge Mountain today, how about that new arrival?"

Lawrence saw that Reglo cared about Delenn's affairs, so he wiped his face with a towel and said, "Her name is Delenn, and now she lives with me, you don't have to doubt her strength, she is stronger than Sariel." ”

Reglo put away the idea of the competition, "Yes, I know. ”

Lawrence comforted, "Her father seems to be as great a person as Andrew. ”

Reglo felt a lot better, she recognized this comfort, and also felt that the other party had a strong father, this kind of strength was acceptable.

Just like when you have a dog, everyone cares about what the puppy's parents are like.

Lawrence said, "In the future, every time the hunting party sets out, you can get an egg, and I'll let the kitchen boil the egg for you later." ”

"Yes, merciful master." Reglo happily thanked Lawrence.

Because of the lack of feed in winter, hens are generally reluctant to lay eggs, and the egg production is very small.

The Ug Mountains where the hunting party went is where the Ug people used to live, and the winters are warmer than here.

Although they are all in the north, sometimes a little closer to the south will make the temperature much more comfortable.

The Vakiri and the Ice Sea are located in the east, the Snow Cave People and the Dum Village are in the north, and the Ug Mountain, the town of Bumicius, and the Kloda people are all in the south, and there are large mountains nearby to withstand the cold wind.

There are many oak trees in Mount Uger, and under the oak trees there are not only corpses, but also a lot of fallen oak trees.

The animals and plants that were supposed to be hunted by the Ugers had abundant nutrients, so the hunting party was always able to get some prey from foxes, deer, badgers, etc.

It takes too long to go out hunting, and if you are unlucky, you can't touch a big game, which is equivalent to a day in vain.

Navia came over to fetch water, and Lawrence got out of the way so that Navia could fetch the water herself.

Watching Navia put a special bucket into the well, the well is not frozen because it is deep enough, and it is usually covered with a wooden lid when not in use.

"Navia, let's drive the goats and pigs into the forest with Alali today in search of food, and let Alalie and Brick take care of the livestock."

"Yes, master." Navia was used to life here.

In addition to being colder, most of the time it is more relaxed than the monastery, there is no need to get up in the morning to pray and chant scriptures, there is no nagging and deacons who don't like their eyes to find faults, the food is okay, and you can leave work early, and you have legal and compliant free time.

What makes Navia happiest is that she can discipline the work of the three new women, these stupid, lazy, and disobedient people will only be obedient if they use whips.

Lawrence now has enough maids in the house, too many maids take up too many people, and the manor is now when labor is most needed.

"Navia, although Kenny is dead, our ties with the West will not be reduced, and you will be free in two years, or your family will come and pay the ransom, and you can also be free in advance."

Navia looked embarrassed, "It's been a long time since I've been in contact with them, I think they've long forgotten about me as a person, how could they pay for someone who suddenly popped up?" ”

Lawrence asked, "What will you do when you're free?" ”

Navia looked at Lawrence embarrassedly, "Maybe... Can I continue to work as a maid here? ”

Lawrence nodded, "I'll think about it, and when that day comes, if no one picks you up, and you don't want to go back yourself, then continue to work as a maid here." ”

Navia breathed a sigh of relief, enough of life in the monastery had passed, and now Navia wanted a comfortable, different life.

"Thank you, master!"

Lawrence quickly went back to the house to prepare for today's business, and today he was going to the forest to check the situation of the swamp, and also to inspect the situation of the upstream and downstream rivers to see if the water of the downstream rivers had thawed.

Spring is just around the corner, and it's something that everyone can feel.

Although the snow was still there, although there were still ice cubes on the rivers and eaves, although it was still necessary to go down the mountains and in the woods to find something to eat for the livestock.

However, under the calm winter day, the hearts of a group of people are gradually restless.

After the meal in the morning, three nuns with whips began to tour the manor, inspecting the livestock pens and the dwellings.

In order to prevent someone from secretly coming back to sleep, or from inappropriate men and women coming to do things while everyone was away, the three nuns came up with the same management method in the convent.

"Did he really say that?" Colin pondered Navia's words.

Navia held a whip in one hand and lifted the quilt in the woman's dormitory with the other, and the smell of the bed made her very dissatisfied and said, "I will stay, you can not listen." ”

Colin didn't want to stay, "Navia, you don't want your family?" They paid a fortune to send you to the monastery, but look at you, you have forgotten about them by now. ”

"I don't have your mother as the dean, and I don't have the count's grandfather." Navia's face was sarcastic, making it clear that she was not afraid of Colin's mother and grandfather.

Don't say it's Colin, even if the earl's daughter is arrested, the other party will not come here to take revenge.

The Earl of Durella was just an old man with a large estate and land, and he couldn't get the peasants and knights of his realm to go out to sea to fight.

Even in the case of a unified dynasty, when the coastal areas were attacked by the Japanese invaders, they only fought back on their own soil, and did not organize the national strength to attack other people's nests.

The nobility of this era was even more scattered, and it was not easy to defend against pirate attacks in their own territory, and they had no strength to organize an expeditionary force.

Colin's nobility and bloodline are of little use in this area, and Navia is the only one here who can unceremoniously refute Colin.

Colin retorted, "I'm just a devout nun, too. ”

Navia smiled and said, "Don't pretend, there are no other cultists here, and our master has no objection to us getting married, are you really willing to be a nun for the rest of your life?" And then like that mom of yours, make an illegitimate child? ”

Colin was angry, "You are not allowed to insult her!" ”

Navia gave a look of disdain, and then looked at Brielier, who was silent.

"Brielier, are you going back or are you going to be a maid here?"

Brielier, the daughter of a knight, hesitated at this point, "I can't make a decision, maybe...... Can I write to my brother and father asking for their opinion? ”

Navia wondered, "What kind of nobleman is your father?" ”

Before Blaire could answer, Collin, who was very clear about these things, preemptively replied.

"Her father was an old knight, and had a knight's estate of twenty men, and was the old lover of the previous abbot, and in order to send her into the monastery, he donated to our abbey two hundred logs, two carts of wheat, two pigs, and five wooden beds."

Listening to Colin's words, Brielier looked ashamed.

Their family is very poor and doesn't have much land, so they have to donate these things.

Navia was quick to point out a problem, a real problem that made Brielil give up on going home.

"The monastery has been burned down, if we go to another monastery to become nuns, will we still ...... Donate again? ”

Although they all have some nostalgia to a greater or lesser extent, the cold and unforgiving reality makes most people accept their current life.

After leaving, their land, their wives and husbands, their livestock, and their status were all transferred to someone else's name.

There is a ridiculous and real problem in front of us: if you go back, you have to start again.

If you go back, you won't have anything to eat.

If you go back, you will also become a serf.

If you go back, you will still be a slave.

If you go back, you may not even have a place to live.

When Lawrence returned from his hoe at eleven o'clock, he saw Navia talking to a group of Western slaves.

"Colin, what is Navia doing?"

Colin lowered his head helplessly and replied, "She's telling those people what they will encounter when they go back, and dispel the idea of those people going back." ”

"Well done, add an egg to her for lunch." Lawrence walked over with a smile, "In the future, she won't have to work, she will be promoted to a special steward, and she will take care of thirty people first." ”

Prophet - nobleman - steward - freeman - serf - slave.

Navia is now a serf turned over and became a master!

Soon Navia ran over quickly with her skirt and asked nervously, "What did the master say?" I just took a break for a while. ”

Colin didn't want to speak, but Brielier smiled and said, "The master said that you did a good job, let you be in charge, and take care of thirty people!" ”

"Really?" Navia looked at Briel in disbelief, and then at Colin, who had a very bad expression.

Colin said disdainfully: "People like you must not be able to manage things." ”

Navia was dumbfounded, was it real?

She has a flamboyant personality, but she has always been an ordinary nun, and even when she patrols for a while, she only thinks she is a nun.

And now suddenly got a position!!

Whether it is in Durella or the monastery, whether it is the promotion of the nobility or the promotion within the monastery, it is all based on the blood status.

Navia, who has always been envious of Colin, suddenly gets a huge surprise!
