  Chapter 83 Marriage Residence
  "This kind of house..."

  Salil saw the small room after entering the house, with a reluctant look on her face.

  Sophia drove the sheep into the house, ran to the fire and squatted down and said, "It's very warm here! It will be very warm when you light the fire!"

  Salil looked at this stone house and had been here before, but today After realizing that this is where I want to live, it feels too small when I look at it.

  It is almost slightly larger than my bedroom. Now it not only accommodates three people, but also keeps three sheep and various things.

  It’s unimaginable that in the future, laundry, cooking, sleeping, going to the toilet, and raising animals will have to be done in this small room...

  Lawrence walked into the room at this time and said to the two of them: "I'll collect some hay, you guys rest first. "

  Salil, are you okay?" Lawrence looked at Salil. After all, Salil had just separated from her father today.

  Salil quickly cheered up, pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Well, I'm fine. It's already very late now. I'm here to help fetch water." "

  Okay." Lawrence saw that Salil was okay and picked up the water. Hoe and water jug, "Let's go there together and I'll tell you where to get water. I've set up a lot of traps around here to catch mice."

  Salil smiled and said, "That's great. I hope there are no mice alive here."

  Lawrence He was very happy when he heard this, "It shouldn't happen. I piled the stones in the house one by one, and the spaces between each piece were tightly sealed." "It doesn't matter if there are

  mice. Wait until Kate brings them." Puppy, train a puppy to help us catch mice in the future!"

  Salil pretended to be strong at first, but after chatting with Lawrence and working hard, she gradually forgot about the sad things.

  On the way back, Lawrence looked at Salil, who was holding a large pitcher in each hand, with an envious expression.

  "Sariel is really amazing. I usually carry one by myself, carry the water jug ​​back and then come back to get the tools."

  Lawrence held the hoe and was very impressed with Saril, who could carry a water tank weighing more than 50 kilograms with one hand. envious.

  Salil said: "You can just eat more. You are too thin now, so you have no strength." "

  Well, I also want to grow taller." Lawrence was not sure how tall he was now, so he suggested: " Tomorrow I will draw a horizontal line on the wall that is the same as my height, so that I can know whether I have grown taller every day."

  Salil asked curiously: "How old are you, Lawrence?"

  Lawrence: "Fifteen years old. "

  Salil looked at Lawrence in shock, "Fifteen years old? Really? I'm fifteen too!"

  Lawrence looked at Salil, this tall and strong young girl with a mature and steady temperament, who looked like No one doubts that he is eighteen or nineteen years old, or even in his twenties.

  Barbarians in cold areas generally develop extremely quickly when there is sufficient food.

  Lawrence said casually: "Well, I am indeed fifteen years old. You don't need to regard me as a friend like your father. We are the same age." Salil smiled happily, happy to meet someone of the same age

  . people.

  The stream was only more than a hundred meters away from the stone house, and soon the two of them arrived outside the house.

  Salil asked: "Lawrence, will you play chess with me in the future?"

  Playing chess is currently Salil's only recreational activity. Before, she was with Sophia, but now she has joined Lawrence's family, so she is looking forward to it. She looked at Lawrence, waiting for the answer that made her nervous.

  "Yes." Lawrence said directly: "On rainy days or when I don't have to work, I will also play chess with you. You can call me if you want." Salil looked at Lawrence excitedly

  , "Remember what you said!"

  Lawrence corrected: "You should say: That's it!"

  Salil didn't quite understand and looked at Lawrence in confusion. Lawrence explained: "I will take time to teach you [word order] and daily idioms in the future, but there is no rush for this."

  Sofia had already lit the fire, and when she saw the two people coming back with the water jug, she shouted: "Already The fire is lit, you can boil water for soup!"

  It was already dark outside, Lawrence drove the three sheep to where they were staying, and lit the fireplace again.

  Sofia watched Lawrence take out the burning branches from the fire and go to the fireplace, and asked curiously: "Master? What are you doing?"

  Lawrence explained: "Use the fireplace to roast meat, use the iron pot on the fire to boil water, and wait. Next time we have to wash our feet, face, hands and feet before going to bed, and we have to rinse our mouth before going to bed."

  Sofia didn't quite understand, "We still have to wash our feet before going to bed today..." "

  We have to do this every day from now on." Lawrence warned He said: "Don't worry about the firewood, I will find a way. If you sleep dirty every day, I won't hold you to sleep." Sofia

  quickly promised: "I know Master! I will wash your feet every day!" "

  Salil is also a girl who likes to be clean, but washing her feet every day is obviously a bit too much.

  That would waste a lot of fuel.

  Even so, Salil didn't refuse.

  Some bacon was quickly roasted and eaten, and Lawrence filled a clay pot with peas and potatoes chopped with a dagger, and baked them on the shelf above the fireplace.

  Roast meat for three people and boiled pea and potato soup for three people are ready.

  The appearance is not good, and the taste is average, but after eating the hot barbecue and the hot soup, your body starts to heat up.

  Salil followed Lawrence's example, holding the soup can that was no longer very hot, "Is it too hot? I've already taken off two pieces of clothing." Sophia also took off her clothes, leaving only

  a thin piece of clothing. Linen robe.

  "Hotter than last night!" Sofia, who was wearing thin clothes, was very excited.

  Lawrence felt a little hot, but he was fine, but the three sheep squatted close to the door, obviously wanting to get out.

  Lawrence stood up and opened the window of the little room so as not to make the sheep sick.

  The cold wind outside poured in through the cracks in the wooden bars of the window.

  Lawrence decided not to close the windows today, so that although the temperature would drop quickly in the second half of the night, it would be safer.

  The three of them began to wash their faces and hands.

  Saryl and Sophia wet their hair with their hands and combed through their long locks.

  Because the room is very warm, there is no need to get close to the fire to keep warm. You can clean your long hair slowly while sitting by the bed.

  After the washing was almost done, we started to take off our shoes and sit together in a circle.

  A basin of hot water and three people washing their feet.

  Lawrence's feet were soaked in the hot water, and soon Salil and Sophia's feet were placed on it. Everyone slowly used their feet to help each other's own or other feet, and gently rubbed them.

  When it was time to sleep, Lawrence went to bed last and slept outside. Sophia, who went up first, naturally slept inside.

  At first everyone behaved well, but when they slept until midnight, they subconsciously hugged each other because the temperature dropped.

  There is no need for a marriage certificate or a notary. Lawrence and Salil are now a family that recognizes each other.
