Mountain and Forest Kingdom

After changing into the clothes of ordinary people of this era, Lawrence and Sophia went out and saw a sumptuous meal.

There is no need to wash your hands and face. You can already eat according to the rules of this era.

The strong Andrew was already sitting at the dining table, and smiled kindly when he saw Lawrence.

"Lawrence, I heard Salil say that you didn't have enough to eat before, but you are happy to have a full meal today. You can always have enough to eat here!"

Lawrence walked to sit opposite Andrew and looked at the food on the table.

Toasted brown bread, bone-in barbecue the size of corn cobs, very fresh-looking green apples, a roast chicken and a plate of eggs, as well as green and white potato and vegetable soup.

"Thank you very much!" Lawrence said happily: "I have never had such a good meal at home!"

Andrew was very satisfied, "Then stay, and you can have enough to eat every day from now on."

Lawrence said politely: "I really want to do this, but I don't want to do it yet. After this meal, I will go to the mountains to see and build my hut."

Andrew was a little surprised and said anxiously: "Why don't you want to stay and live with us?"

Lawrence glanced at Salil, who had just said she didn't want to get married.

This kind of woman is a very different kind of existence in this era, but it is not impossible.

There are many women in the monastery who do not want to get married, or who cannot find a satisfactory partner.

Lawrence didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs, even though the other person was a beautiful girl, and he was not willing to do some humble things in order to become her husband.

If you don't want to, just don't want to, don't force it.

Lawrence, who had already purchased a female slave, felt that he and Sophia were not suitable to join this kind of family.

"Sofia is not my sister or family member, nor is she my wife. She is a slave I purchased outside."

Lawrence revealed Sophia's true identity and remained calm in the face of Andrew's surprise and Saryl's shocked eyes.

"I plan to build a cabin in the mountains and live there with Sofia, preferably in a safe place."

"I was very lucky to be able to have enough to eat yesterday and today. Just as Mr. Andrew was lucky enough to meet us when he was unlucky, I think we should be able to get along well in the future."

Salil didn't know how to look at Lawrence. She looked at Sophia and then at Lawrence, but finally said nothing.

Slaves were normal in this era, Lawrence said: "Slaves must be very unusual here, right?"

Sophia stood quietly behind Lawrence. She had already accepted her status as a slave. Compared with the nightmare life in the slave house, she was treated gently every day after following Lawrence. Although life was hard, it was no longer a nightmare.

Andrew said: "It's not unusual. I used to go out to capture slaves, but they were always sold or disposed of quickly. There is not so much food to feed slaves in the mountains."

Andrew quickly smiled again, "I sometimes want to go down the mountain and catch a husband for Salil, but Salil is definitely not willing."

Salil said seriously: "Don't say that."

Andrew smiled and said: "Look, what a good girl!"

Lawrence also smiled. Andrew seemed to be an elder who was easy to get along with, and Saryl was also a gentle and kind girl.

Salil quickly said to Sophia: "Sofia, please sit down and eat too. I have prepared food for you."

Sofia usually eats with Lawrence, and it was the same last night, but now after being reminded of her status as a slave by Lawrence, she quickly looked at Lawrence, waiting for her master's approval.

Lawrence took the initiative and said, "Let's eat together."

Sofia bowed happily, "Thank you, Master, thank you Salil, and Uncle Andrew!"

Sariel doesn't like Lawrence a little bit. She can't explain why she doesn't like him, but she just has some grudge against him.

Before breakfast was finished, Salil said directly: "I'm going to feed the sheep."

Lawrence often did this kind of work when he was on the farm. There were many things to do every day.

Andrew was also full and said: "I'm going to check the trap. You guys will join me and take care of me, an old man with weak legs. Otherwise, if I accidentally step on the trap, my leg will be gone." "

Lawrence said quickly: "Of course, we will help you check the traps first, and then go to the mountains to find a suitable place to build a house in the afternoon."

When Andrew heard this, he frowned and said, "It's autumn now. It will get cold in another month. It won't be possible to build a house in a month."

Lawrence also realized the urgency of time, "Let's take a look first. If it doesn't work, find a cave to stay in first."

Andrew looked at Lawrence seriously, "A cave? That will definitely kill people! Compared to the south, the difference between winter here is like the sea in summer and the sea in spring."

"It seems the winter here is not easy," Lawrence said.

Andrew suggested: "You can continue to live here with me. Salil will change her mind soon. I don't think she will mind if you have a female slave who can work."

Lawrence smiled and asked curiously: "Salil is such a gentle and beautiful girl, and is very good at cooking and housework. I can't understand why no young man gets close to her."

Andrew's face soon became sad, and he said helplessly: "She was born on a rainy day. Every time it rains here, someone gets sick or encounters misfortune. Everyone thinks it is Salil's fault, even Salil." Lil thinks so."

Lawrence said directly: "Raining is normal. It rains everywhere. Does it mean that children born on a sunny day will bring good luck? Will they not encounter misfortune?"

Andrew looked excited, "You're right, I think so too!"

After agreeing very much with the boy, Andrew carefully reminded: "Actually, Salil is a very good girl. If she reminds you that it will rain tomorrow, you'd better believe it."

Lawrence was a little surprised, but he quickly said: "Of course, I will arrange things in advance and be fully prepared."

Andrew liked this young man very much and planned to continue to persuade Salil that such a good man was not easy to find.

After eating, Andrew took the two of them to the livestock shed.

There were two large goats grazing in the shed. These large goats with horns as long as bread looked quite dangerous.

Each big goat is one and a half meters tall, but it looks very tall. Just standing there gives people the feeling of a giant beast.

Andrew introduced: "These are Dom sheep. They can carry goods and women. I'm too heavy to ride them, but you seem to be fine."

There are no horses in this world. They may have been eaten to extinction, but they have been replaced by various substitutes that have been domesticated for many years.

Such as moose, goats, camels, plains cattle, bigfoot, sled dogs, pygmy elephants.
