Chapter 16 Leaving Home

After eating the white bread made by my mother in the evening and the beef soup with large pieces of beef.

During the break after meals, Link was assigned a new task.

Walker: "Link, you go to your sister's house again tomorrow. Since you may not be able to come back for several years, go see them in advance."

Link: "Okay."

It is not popular in rural areas to visit each other, and the same is true in the New Year. In order to keep warm in winter, most of the time the villagers choose to crouch in bed - they will freeze to death without cotton coats when they go out.

But the problem is that children grow up very quickly and can change a set of cotton coats almost every year. The villagers have not solved the problem of food and clothing. How can they pay so much money to buy cotton coats for their children every year?

Moreover, there are almost no children in rural areas. They start to create people when it’s dark and night. It’s normal for a family of three or five children, and it’s not uncommon for ten or eight.

It is best to complete the visits and social interactions between relatives and friends before the end of the year before the arrival of late winter.

In fact, my eldest sister lives in the city, but my father's thinking has been solidified in the countryside. After all, my father has never left here for dozens of miles in his life.

After breakfast on the third day of returning home, Link went out. His father Walker did not give Link money. After all, Link was already an adult. If Link chose to help the family, it would be Link's own choice. Even if Link didn't help the family, no one would say anything. After all, Link had no inheritance rights even if he moved Kingsoft back to his home.

Of course, Link himself has a lot of ambitions and is just looking down on the job of farming.

Link, who is at the Sanctuary level, usually travels much faster. The journey of the day was completed in half a day and entered Ribe City, where his sister and brother-in-law's house was.

Although I have always known the door number of the neighborhood where my sister and my brother-in-law live, it is one thing to come here, and it is another thing to find it. Link goes around and goes around and follows the crowds entering the city to the market first.

Thinking that I was always unhappy when I came to the house for the first time. I bought some chicken and bacon in the market, including sauced chicken and bacon, whole pork legs, dried fresh fruits, dried fruits, and dried fruits. Link went out of the market with a large bag of small bags. He asked passers-by several times before Link arrived at Stark's home in his brother-in-law's house.

After Link knocked on the door, Linlin, a 16-year-old young woman holding the child, was stunned when she saw Link, and then shouted: "Brother, Link. Come in."

After Link came in, his elder sister Linlin, who was holding the child, added some charcoal fire to the fireplace and said, "Link, I haven't seen you for two years. I've grown up so old, and I can't recognize you."

Link sat down in the living room of his home and asked, "Where is brother-in-law?"

At this time, the child cried again, and the eldest sister Linlin, who was feeding the child, said: "The busiest year is at the end of the year, and the Chamber of Commerce has to go to work."

Link pointed to the child who was breastfeeding: "Is this my niece?"

The eldest sister Linlin: "It's your niece, you haven't named it yet. It's just four months old."

Link: "Next time I see her, maybe I will grow up."

Sister Linlin: "Are you going to go far?"

Link: "You may not be able to come back in the next few years. You can accept this."

After saying that, Link took out a small bag. It contained five gold coins and ten silver coins.

The eldest sister Linlin opened it and saw: "There are too many, I can't accept it. It's not easy for you to be adventurers. Shouldn't you buy new weapons and equipment?"

Link took off the long sword behind him, pulled out three inches, and after inputting the Dou Qi, a magic halo was displayed on the long sword of the enchantment.

"This is enough. Now the family has money. After you accept it, I will feel relieved."

Link put the long knife behind him again: "I will go back if my brother-in-law is not here."

Linlin: "I have a guest room at home, so stay here for one night. Your brother-in-law will come back tonight. It's good to meet him before leaving."

Well, it seems that I have never met my brother-in-law a few times.

"All right."

Brother-in-law Stark and Link are not very familiar with each other, and they are completely different concepts for Link.

When my brother-in-law Stark came back in the evening and after the two of them gave a formal greeting, there was nothing to say. After listening to what my brother-in-law said about working in the chamber of commerce, what sold well, what increased the price, and what was out of stock, it was not very meaningful to Link.

When he arrived at the guest room, Link held the knife and didn't sleep all night, practicing Douqi breathing in bed. Link was already at the holy realm level, and even if he didn't sleep, he could rest well while lying down.

After breakfast, Link and his brother-in-law Stark left the house together and parted ways on the way. Then Link went to the market to buy some pastries and meat, and took them home. Anyway, they didn't have much money.

The cold winter comes soon with a few sleets, and the village, as before, enters the mode of usually not going out.

Because of boredom, my sister Lin Qi urged Link to update the story of killing pig heads, taurens, and ogres every day.

After getting tired of telling the story, Link simply took his sister Lin Qi to the city. Link carried his sister to the city. Even if he carried his sister to Ribe City, it only took half a day to go around the city at Link's speed, and after buying some pastries and candies, he could eat something. Then Link could carry his sister to the city before dark.

In the past, people didn’t want to go out, but because they didn’t go out in winter, they now have leather clothes, so wouldn’t it be better to go out and play?

Dad Walker also figured out this and simply took his wife to the city. Because he walked a little slower, in order to go back that day, Dad Walker rented a two-horse carriage in the tavern in the village, and went to the city with his wife for a day, and only came back the next night.

After returning, Walker's father praised the life in the city. After all, the city doesn't have to spend the whole winter at home, and the market is much more prosperous. For example, in the village, if you want to buy anything, you have to leave a message to the owner of the village tavern. When you pass by the caravan, you can buy it by the way. Sometimes it takes several months to buy it. In a word, it's too inconvenient.

I went to the market in the city, and it was a long way to go, and I was worried about being cheated.

On the third day after Dad Walker came back, he couldn't help but call everyone in his family to have a meeting. The theme of the meeting was to discuss moving to the city.

Link had no objection, he left during the Chinese New Year anyway.

Dad Walker made several points at the meeting. First, the housing prices in the city are not high now. Secondly, with tall walls guarding it, it is safer to live in the city.

As for the land in the village, it actually belongs to the lord. The family does not have the right to dispose of the situation. If you cancel the lease, just say it to the lord in advance.

Although the eldest brother, Walker, didn't understand why his father wanted to go to the city to eat, since it was his father's idea, he would just do it as his son.

Dad Walker went to Ribe City again, and this time he bought a property directly, spending more than a hundred silver coins. Then he moved a large house, and took away those who could be taken away, and gave them to others if they could not be taken away. The village could not find a buyer if they wanted to sell it. The big yellow dog could be taken to see the house, but the poultry and livestock at home were given directly to others.
