Chapter 16 Two People Who Depend on Each Other

Winter festival party? Roland Hill recalled last year's scene, when she passed out at the party because of the shock of Chaos Phantom. Fortunately, Frocia brought her back, so there was no accident.

"Although I didn't think about it before, it's still possible to participate. I promised you before." Just take it as a souvenir before leaving the school. If we meet in the future, it will not be as convenient as it is now.

After seeing Loren Hill's agreement, Frocia was obviously very happy, but as a lady, she was restrained on the surface and didn't make any special moves. But the girl could clearly see that the corners of her brows were stretched a lot, and the expression on her face was also radiant.

This girl with golden hair like the sun is extraordinarily beautiful when she smiles, her blue eyes like lake water, and she seems to be able to speak as movingly.

"That's fine then."

"Um."

Compared with previous years, this year, because of the early holiday, the time to come to school is also earlier. It is still autumn, and the weather is not very cold. Many students on campus are still wearing summer dresses and thin coats.

There are still a few days before the official start of school, and many people are playing and gathering on campus.

West side of Temple College, small town.

Compared with the towering city walls at the border of the college, the town outside is much warmer and more natural. The town is surrounded by golden fields of wheat, and now is the harvest season.

A young girl wearing a light yellow hat was walking in the wheat field. She was wearing a white close-up top and a knee-length light coffee plaid skirt. Her long light red hair was exposed from under the brim of the hat and scattered around her waist.

She raised her head and blocked the slightly stronger sunlight with her hands, looking at the endless golden waves in her field of vision. The ears of wheat swayed slightly in the autumn wind, and a dry scent of wheat also drifted into her nose.

It was the smell of the wheat ears and stalks baked by the sun. The girl stretched out her hand to pinch off an ear of wheat, placed it in the palm of her fair hand, and watched it carefully.

The fibers in the straw are not visible at all, there is a slender yellow leaf on it, and then there are closely arranged ears of wheat. These ears are very plump and have long whiskers on their tips.

"Miss~" another girl's voice shouted from behind.

"I'm here, Penny." The girl held out her hand and waved it in the air. This girl walking in the wheat field was the eldest young lady of the Anemii family, Funo.

Another girl came over, wearing a dirt-resistant and plain dress, about 20 years old.

"Is Miss here looking at the wheat?"

"Well, it turns out that the wheat grows like this, it's so beautiful." Feng Nai spread out the bunch of wheat ears in his palm to Penny.

"This is the fruit of hard work." Penny took the ear of wheat from Feng Nai's hand, and the two said as they walked in the wheat field.

"When I was a child, I also helped my uncle's family harvest wheat. At that time, I took a sickle and mowed down the wheat field from one side to the other. By the way, I tied the cut wheat and stacked it."

"Will it be very hard?" Feng Nai suddenly asked.

In the past, she was a pampered and pampered eldest lady, but now that she has lived alone for a while, she gradually understands how difficult it is for ordinary people to live.

"How can I say this, it will be tiring, but I will be happier in my heart, especially during a bumper harvest." Penny peeled off the stacked wheat and walked ahead.

"The wheat fields will be harvested in two days. Is the eldest lady coming to help?"

"Me, I'm a little afraid that I won't do well."

"As long as you don't hate it, Miss. I didn't expect Feng Nai to be afraid of embarrassment. I used to do whatever I thought of, as if nothing could trap you."

"That's because the world I knew before was too simple and one-sided."

"Giggle, the eldest lady has also grown up. Well, let's not talk about this. Tomorrow, the eldest lady will change into a simpler dress. Come and try it. I don't ask how much you can help."

"Come here, is Penny looking down on me?" Feng Nai replied with a smile.

Since leaving Hopelander and coming to Emenas, Feng Nai has been living at the school, and will return to the small town to the west during the holidays, that is, Servis.

Although Servis is the legendary gem witch, almost no one knows her true identity on weekdays. They only know that this is the proprietress of a clothing store in the town. There is a large yard on the south side of the town. There are several fields and orchards.

After the holiday this year, Feng Nai and Penny lived here with Servis. Although they were still students, Servis would not look after the old man for the sake of raising the two in vain. Not to mention that Penny helps in the store every day, Feng Nai also comes here after the holidays, working as a tailor, cutting and sewing some clothes.

After fading away the halo that attracted much attention in the past, Feng Nai is a little more stable than before, and he no longer despises some simple labor as before, but will only express his opinion after trying it out in person.

The next day, early in the morning.

The people in the town began to gather, wielding scythes, and harvesting the fields of wheat. It can be said that the whole family went together.

Unlike fruit, the harvest time of wheat is only a few days, because the mature wheat will be gradually threshed, and the wheat will fall into the soil and be difficult to recover after the time is too late. In addition, the straw also lacks toughness after maturity and drying, and it will break after a long time. Of course, the most fearful thing is to encounter rain, which will easily lead to mold and germination.

The residents of the small town stooped, starting in the morning and working until noon, before taking a break for lunch.

On the straw pile beside the wheat field, Feng Nai was lying in it, covering his face with a hat to block the fierce sunlight. The skin that used to be incomparably fair, now has a slight wheat color, and the sweat drops along with it.

Breath rolled down his forehead, and the back of his shirt was wet with sweat.

"Huh, I'm so tired." She spread her hands out, not wanting to move at all.

"You've worked hard, Miss, do you want something cool?" Penny sat beside the haystack, looked at her own eldest lady, and said amusingly. In the morning Kaze was still full of ambition, but after working for less than 2 hours, he was exhausted, and then it was a constant cycle of rest, restart, rest, restart, and so on.

"Yes." Feng Nai stretched out his sore arm.

"Okay, I'll go get it for you." Penny stood up from the haystack.

"Thank you." Feng Nai took off the hat at the beginning and turned her head to look at Penny beside her.

"Isn't Penny feeling tired?" Although the lady maid also had a slight sweat on her forehead, she still looked at it with ease.

"That's because I've done it before, and some movement habits are already known."

"Miss, who has never worked before, if her movements are not standard, she will be very tired."

After speaking, Penny walked to the room next to her, where she had prepared the simple white pudding in advance.

After Penny left, Feng Nai continued to lie down on the straw pile for a while before slowly getting up.

"Miss, here." Penny brought a small bowl with the pudding wobbly.

"Wow, Penny is so good, I still remember that I like to eat this." Feng Nai picked up the spoon and ate it.

Seeing Feng Nai eating on the straw pile, Penny stretched out her hand to straighten her messy hair, and took off the grass clippings that were accidentally stuck in her hair.

Penny thought about her past. Although she was of ordinary background, because she became Feng Nai's personal maid, she was very grateful for the generous treatment given to their family by the previous family master.

In the past, on weekdays, it was the owner of the house who asked her to take care of Feng Nao, so that she would not cause trouble for being too casual. Although the Anemii family is no more now, she will still remember this kindness and take good care of this lonely eldest lady.

Besides, after getting along for a long time, she was really worried that she would just leave this young lady who didn't know much about the world. The relationship between the two is not limited to the ordinary master-servant relationship.

Because we are sisters who depend on each other...
