December 13th, early morning.
For the monkeys in the fruit stealing monkey training ground, the first snow of the year came with the arrival of new members. The monkeys that the Sir Lord ordered to buy had not yet arrived, but the three pregnant female monkeys had already given birth to baby monkeys, a total of four, and one of the female monkeys was pregnant with twins.
Perhaps the Flower Town was really a place blessed by the knight's glory, as the four little monkeys had all survived.
They could just see the first snow of Flower Town, mixed with the whistling north wind.
"Squeak!"
"Squeak!"
The monkeys cheered for the arrival of the snow in their own language. When the snow came, the fragrant coconut trees would stop growing, and the fragrant coconuts would no longer ripen – they stole fragrant coconuts all year round and knew this very well. The fragrant coconuts would no longer ripen, which meant that they didn't have to work this winter.
Unfortunately.
Such an idea was ridiculous. Early in the morning, Jiggs, the manager of the training ground, took out fake fragrant coconuts and began training day after day.
"Sir Lord will buy more monkeys, and when the time comes, this group of fruit stealing monkeys will be the model for the new monkeys to imitate, so everyone, be sure to train well and let the fruit stealing monkeys be role models!" Jiggs shouted loudly. In the training ground, he enjoyed the authority of a leader.
Several other fruit farmers had to listen to him.
"The female monkey I trained can't train anymore today, she has to feed her own children."
"Then you go shovel the snow."
"Why do we have to shovel the snow? We don't shovel the snow every year, it's better to just stay in the house." A fruit farmer said indifferently.
Giggs immediately said angrily, "Correct your attitude. Consultant Gort has already announced to the entire town that all farms and workshops must shovel the snow in front of their doors and work areas. After that, they must also shovel the snow on the roads nearby! You fool, do you dare to disobey the Advisor's orders? "
The fruit farmer certainly didn't dare to disobey, but he dared to complain to Jiggs, "Why didn't you say so earlier, if you had said so earlier, I wouldn't have let the snow pile up in the training ground!"
Although he complained, he still took the broom he made in the farm and began to shovel the snow.
It was just one night of snow, so the snow was not thick and could be swept away with a broom.
Just like the fruit stealing monkeys' training ground, the entire Flower Town began a mighty snow shoveling battle at dawn. The patrols beat gongs and drums and went from house to house urging the serfs to get up and shovel the snow. The snow on the roads must be shoveled first to prevent the carriage from moving and the construction of the territory from being delayed.
This winter was destined to not be peaceful.
Many meetings had been held in the castle and the administrative office to plan the construction works for the winter.
…
"Ah!"
Stretching, Liszt was a little reluctant to get up from the bed.
It started to snow last night, and the temperature had dropped to the point where he needed to wear thick clothes, so he had already covered himself with a quilt. Although the Earth Knight was resistant to cold and heat, no one would be stupid enough to be frozen. Of course, he needed a warm quilt.
However, with his strong willpower, he resisted the corrosion of the bed and got up to open the door.
The male servant and female servant were already waiting outside the door.
The manservant Thomas had to help him get dressed, while the maid was responsible for cleaning the room.
"Good morning, Master." Thomas saluted with the leather armor in his hand.
Little Lily, carrying a bucket, a duster, and a mop, also bowed to Liszt. "Good morning, Master."
"Good morning."
Liszt was used to being helped to get dressed. He carefully tidied up his appearance in front of the mirror, then hurried out of the bedroom to walk the dog outside.
Before he went out, he heard a cry. It was the thorny sprite, Ella, who flew out of the worm room and went out with him.
Liszt smiled and touched Ella's little head. "Ella, I'll take you to see the snow."
"Wow!" Ella's eyes were wide open, and it was curious. It had never seen snow before. This was the first time it had seen snow since it was born.
As soon as it left the castle, it flew around excitedly, fiddling with the snow on the ground, trees, and windows from time to time.
"Woof!"
Dosen stood at the door of the kennel and barked excitedly. It was also the first time it had seen snow. However, it should have seen enough last night. Now it probably saw Liszt and knew that it could have fun, so it was excited.
Dosen's chain was untied.
Intermediate World of Warcraft, which had been raised as a watchdog, flew out in one stride, shaking its head and tail in the snow, playing with the snow.
Clatter!
A small snowball hit Dosen's head. Ella learned from Liszt and pinched a snowball to have a snowball fight. But its hand was too small, and the snowball was even smaller. Dosen didn't feel anything at all.
Seeing that Dosen ignored it, it was furious and raised its hand to sow the seeds.
However, the telepathic Liszt felt its emotions and immediately stopped its behavior. "Ella, play with the snow, don't scatter seeds."
Since it was so naughty, he might as well take it to the Thorns Ridge to plant trees.
Then, he pinched a large snowball himself and threw it. Clatter, it hit Dosen's big head. Tremblingwoods stared blankly for a moment. It looked around, but it didn't know who hit it. A few seconds later, its attention shifted and it began to roll in the snow again.
The snow was thin, so it just pressed its body and the snow melted, revealing the alfalfa underneath.
It was rolling snow, but it was actually rolling grass.
Very childish behavior, but considering that it was not even a year old, it was normal to be childish.
Leaving Dosen and Ella to play with the snow, Liszt began his daily cultivation class. The plan of a day is in the morning, the plan of a lifetime is in the diligence, and the polishing of qi is the work of water. If you want to become a flying Sky Knight and be known as a sword saint, you have to work hard.
After the cultivation class, he returned to the castle to take a bath and change into formal noble clothes.
He let the servants move the table to the window, leisurely eat breakfast, and enjoy the scene of the servants shoveling the snow. This is the tranquility of the countryside, which he could not enjoy before crossing over. Of course, the prosperity and charm of modern civilization is also incomparable to this backward world.
He sometimes asks himself, if he was given a choice now, would he go back to his original life or stay as an aristocrat.
For the first two months in Flower Town, he would choose to go back.
Now, he will not hesitate to choose to stay and continue his unfinished dragon riding career.
"It's just that I miss soybean milk, fried dough sticks, and porridge buns … By the way, why don't I let Mrs. Abby and the bakery's Rainer 'invent' the buns?"
They were all pasta, but the pasta made from wheat flour was not just bread.
Steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, dumplings, wontons, noodles, pancakes, fried dough sticks, glutinous rice balls, shumai, ramen, these are common noodles. Although Liszt was originally a southerner and did not eat much noodles, dumplings and steamed buns were obviously more in line with his taste than eating bread every day.
Thinking about this, he could not help but think of Xianglin's classic quote.
