The short autumn passed quickly, and the arrival of winter was marked by a heavy rain.

The people of Oak City stayed in their houses early and waited for the rain, and the distant town of Bhumixiu and the port of Dum, as well as the manor and the mines, were also notified in advance.

Lawrence stood at the window and watched the rain outside, the rain pouring down from the sky created a huge amount of moisture, and the whole world looked wet.

The big oak trees in the distance stood still in the torrential rain, and many crows flew to the oak trees to escape the downpour.

Lawrence withdrew his gaze and closed the window to look at the people in the room.

Sariel was doing chores at the table, smiling and looking in a good mood.

Maybe it's because I gave her a vanity box in the morning.

The vanity box was a square wooden box that could hold combs, hairpins, and strings, and it was a very ordinary box.

Lawrence walked over and praised Sariel, who was also in a good mood.

"Sariel, the more I think about it, the more I think you are very capable, not only in the sea and agriculture, but also in ordinary times, you can arrange work in advance."

Sariel often reports on the weather, which is usually a trivial matter, and today she was a little embarrassed after being praised by Lawrence.

"Really?" Sariel was even happier and said, "Then I want to eat shabu mutton tonight for hot pot." ”

Lawrence wanted to boast and forget it, but he didn't expect Saliel to directly ask for a reward.

"Good! It just so happens that in the past three or four years, the sheep we have raised have also given birth to a lot of lambs, and the Black Forest tribe has also provided black goats. ”

"Eat hot pot today, mutton hot pot!"

Saliel happily wiped the table, "Good! I'll wipe the table and go kill the sheep! ”

Lawrence has never wronged his own women, although he can't afford to raise seventy-two, but the six families around him still have to be well raised.

Sariel, Sophia, Delen, Kehalan, Loshanda, Catherine.

As for the new Jade and the other witches, they have actually always been used as housekeepers and slave girls, not their own people.

Candace soon goes with Emma to prepare food, while Lawrence goes to work in the tool room.

Everyone has their own interests and hobbies, as well as their own jobs.

Sariel is a good woman who is a hard-working housekeeper, and in addition to taking care of various household chores, she also keeps accounts and assists the rest of the people in completing the overall work, being both a housekeeper and a secretary.

Sophia is a small follower, in addition to running around with Lawrence, she usually mainly practices the dodge and blocking skills of the shield, and also finds time to practice dancing to keep in shape.

Delen's hobbies are fitness and weapon maintenance, as well as playing chess with the rest of the group or practicing techniques such as javelin throwing axes, and has rarely used witchcraft lately.

Keharan's job is to cultivate seeds and medicinal herbs, and his hobbies are bathing and massage, or listening to the witches' family singing, reading and sleeping.

There was no main job in Loshanda, and there was nothing else to do other than boiling hot water when Lawrence was around, and Lawrence came out to stabilize the situation when he was away, or to build the Iron Furnace with Delenn, and now he rarely goes to the Iron Forges to help.

His hobbies are bathing and playing with fire.

Catherine had the most work, often going out with Lawrence, but also had plenty of time off for herself.

His hobbies include playing cards, drinking afternoon tea, bathing, practicing swordsmanship and riding, hunting and standing on the big oak trees and looking at the scenery.

Lawrence's work is unclear, and his hobby is enjoyment.

Delenn came up from downstairs and looked at Lawrence as he walked into Lawrence's workshop.

At this point, Lawrence poured many pieces of stone on the ground, piling them up into a two-meter-long circle.

"What do you want me to do?" Delenn walked over and crouched down, his hands pressed on his thighs, and stood on tiptoe looking curiously at the small stones on the ground.

In the middle of the round stone was a twenty-centimeter-high stone pillar that looked like a flat pot lid, and Delenn couldn't think of the purpose of this thing for a few seconds.

Lawrence decided to make a table turnaround in order to enjoy his work, and at this time, in order to improve the quality of life.

"Delen, wait a minute, you solidify these stones into a two-meter-long circle, and make it stronger, so that you can make a table that can be moved upside down."

Delenn thought with a frown.

A table that can be moved?

"Is it a round sheep cart? Or a barrel? ”

Delen's imagination is as barren as Sariel's, and the imagination of moving tables is as simple as that.

Lawrence explains, "It's a table that can be rotated in circles, so that when we eat in the future, we can rotate the table on this floor so that everyone can eat what they want!" ”

With a rotating table, everyone can eat what they want...... Delenn thought again on this condition.

"Like a millstone?" Delenn thought of something and looked surprised.

Lawrence was very happy, "yes, that's pretty much it, you're much smarter than Sariel." Lawrence whispered praise, not wanting to be heard by Sariel.

Delenn wasn't the kind of woman who would talk nonsense, thinking about the grinding table at this point.

"Can you still eat that kind of food? I don't like to eat together. ”

Lawrence has a lot of experience with this, "You must be different from what I thought, just like Sariel, you must have thought of something bad." ”

"Tell me what you think, it's idle anyway."

Lawrence continued to work on the turntable table, which could be used not only for eating, but also for many purposes, such as playing cards.

Delenn said what he thought, "It's like grinding wheat, pouring all the food into it, and then turning this stone slab and pressing the food into the same thing." ”

Lawrence felt right, he did want to be something else.

Delenn is a helper, let Delenn know what she is doing, and when she helps, she will make it more perfect, so it is necessary to explain.

"It's not that purpose, like this plank." Lawrence picked up a dome and placed a few white stones on top of it for playing chess.

"A few of us sat around the side, and this wooden board was the dining table, and when the dining table turned, the rice plate and wine glasses on it would be turned to the other side, and we would get up and pick up the dishes."

"In this way, we can eat the same meal in the future, and we don't have to waste food by preparing a dish for each person."

Delenn couldn't think of such a benefit, but felt that it was very troublesome.

"So how does this turntable move? We're going to eat by the river in the future? ”

Now that all kinds of mills and power rely on water, Delen's thinking is somewhat fixed.

Lawrence explains: "It's very simple, just push it with your hand, and you don't need to keep spinning. ”

Delenn almost understood Lawrence's design, but still felt that it was a waste.

"Seven of us eat one dish, it's not enough to eat, and I don't think this design is useful at all."

Delen was directly opposed to the design of the turntable, as it would require seven people to eat one dish instead of one for everyone.

Lawrence didn't expect that the modern props he had crafted to improve his quality of life would be opposed.

Delenn was very opposed, and without waiting for Lawrence to defend himself, he said: "We can feed the maid and feed the dogs if we can't finish eating, but if we don't have enough food, it will be very uncomfortable!" ”

"Isn't the doctrine of our Star Church just to eat well?" Delenn asked Lawrence earnestly.

Lawrence instantly understood why Delenn was against it.

"I don't mean cutting back on the amount of food we eat, but making more delicious food every day, so that we can eat a lot of food every little bit."

"My idea is that everyone eats happily, just like taking a bath, and not hiding in the bathtub instead of taking a bath."

"Meals should also be shared, not everyone just looks down at the dishes in front of them."

What Lawrence wants is this improvement in the quality of life, not only to enjoy convenience, but also to improve the family atmosphere.

This time, Delenn did not object, and he also knew what Lawrence was going to build, and he was very cooperative to help. (End of chapter)
