145 Grass on the Sundial(1/2)

February 22, 0001.

When he opened his eyes again, Wu Qingchen entered the medieval world for the seventh time.

Time is a fair thing.

Lying on the simple grass, from being too confused to being awake, Wu Qingchen suddenly realized that at the rate of time of 30:1, the dark logs and dry yellow thatch on his head were already so familiar. Instead, the underground base that had just left, air conditioners, computers, mobile phones, white ceilings, and soft incandescent lamps, these things began to be a little blurred, as if they were more like a dream.

Sighing silently, Wu Qingchen got up.

The wooden house is a little empty.

Xia Shi had already entered its busiest time. The two brothers, Idra and Grace, lived in the lord's livestock shed during this period. At this time, they should be leading cowherds to take care of the cattle in the master's commons.

As the parent of this family, William, who had exempted the summer service, obviously would not waste his rare free time. During this period, he and his wife Jacquelin rushed to the edge of the forest early every morning to take care of the wasteland that had not been opened for long.

"Brother, are you awake?"

As Wu Qingchen moved, a small figure turned his head next to the fire pit.

Seeing Wu Qingchen, Little Nina's eyebrows immediately bent.

"Ri'an, Nina."

Wu Qingchen said hello, rubbed his face and stood up, lifted the wooden barrel next to the bed, and walked towards the door: "I'll go out."

"Okay..." Little Nina put down her work and walked towards the pottery jar that was serving grain in the corner of the wall. She asked as she walked: "Brother, what are you going to eat in the morning?"

"Beans, cabbage...well, and eggs."

"Okay brother!" Little Nina answered happily.

Following the curved path towards the stream, after a small bend, Wu Qingchen bent down and took out a simple "toothpaste" made of salt and some other materials from the bushes.

Arriving at the stream and standing on a small platform that was specially laid with pebbles, Wu Qingchen put down the wooden barrel and took out a "toothbrush" made of several suitable branches of fiber from the pebbles under the stream.

"Toothpaste", "toothbrush", and put it on the edge of the wooden barrel, using the "towel" recommended by the expert group, carefully using these three simple tools - careful to prevent these tools from hurting Wu Qingchen, and also careful that Wu Qingchen injured these fragile tools - it took a full twenty minutes before Wu Qingchen finally completed the washing process.

After hiding the washing tools, Wu Qingchen returned to the wooden house.

"Brother, you're back!"

When Wu Qingchen walked in, Little Nina had placed two bowls of beans, two bowls of water spinach, and two eggs on the dining table.

The two sat down and started to have their first meal of the day.

"Brother, you woke up a little early today... are you uncomfortable sleeping?"

After eating a few bites of beans, little Nina suddenly asked.

"Oh, is there?"

After two days of training, plus two successful actual executions, the serfs involved in the moving of honeycombs have already mastered almost all the "technical actions".

However, in order to ensure the success rate to the greatest extent, the steward and the priest agreed that the commons were not short of the labor force of this small group of serfs for one or two days.

The training of these participating serfs must not be stopped!

However, considering that the time for moving honeycombs is late at night, in order to ensure the best condition when moving honeycombs, the two masters allowed these serfs to sleep until the sun rose to the highest point, and then started the training of the day.

Even the serfs have received such rare kindness. The biggest hero, Wu Qingchen/Laus' rest time, or energy-saving time, must be more abundant.

In fact, after spending the busiest time in the cattle herd treatment in Akerli village, Wu Qingchen's rest time was already well guaranteed.

In recent days, Wu Qingchen has obtained it even more. The entire medieval world is probably extremely rare, and the enjoyment of sleeping until it wakes up naturally.

However, today, perhaps during the training the day before, I received too many needs for physical enhancement from the 7 billion humans on Earth. Wu Qingchen woke up about half an hour earlier than the previous few days.

but……

"How do you know I woke up a while ago?" Wu Qingchen was surprised by Nina's intuition.

"Look at that!"

Little Nina pointed outside the door and followed her fingers. Wu Qingchen looked over and saw the simple sundial she had arranged some time ago.

"What? Look at that!" Wu Qingchen's surprise was extraordinary, "Can you understand this?"

Looking at the skill point of the sundial, it is difficult to say whether it is difficult or simple, but it is never simple.

In particular, the sundial placed outside the door only took about half an hour to make the production time of Wu Qingchen, so simple that even Wu Qingchen himself had to take some effort to determine the general moment.

How did Nina figure out the incline, angle, length of shadow, time ratio, these things?

Wu Qingchen was very surprised.

"I can't understand..."

Maybe Wu Qingchen's voice was too rapid, so little Nina put down the wooden bowl: "But brother, tell me that this thing is for the morning and evening..."

Watch it sooner or later...

"Yes, I said that." Wu Qingchen nodded.

In fact, it was not something that was "talked", but when Wu Qingchen was doing something near the cowherd's mansion, little Nina always liked to ask questions. When Wu Qingchen couldn't stand the entanglement, he had to explain a few words casually. However, Wu Qingchen was very sure that he had never taught this little guy how to use a sundial - the most important thing is that Wu Qingchen had a headache about how to explain abstract concepts such as sunlight, shadow, time, etc.

"But..." Wu Qingchen forgot to eat beans and stared at Nina intently: "How do you know I'm late?"

"I, I..." Nina bit her lip, "I, brother... A few days ago, brother, you said... you said, you can finally sleep a little later... You, you are very happy when you said... I, I remember..."

Not only was he happy, Wu Qingchen remembered it very clearly. When he finally achieved the achievement of sleeping in, Wu Qingchen wanted to whistle to the sky.

"Hmm! Then what?" Wu Qingchen asked.

"Then..." Wu Qingchen asked repeatedly, Nina's expression became more and more nervous. She pointed to the sundial: "Then, after that day, when you wake up and go to Xiaoxiao Shui, I... was there... on the stones and mud, where the shadows walked, stuck... a piece of grass... Brother, I didn't mean it... I didn't want to ruin your things..."

"ah!"

Isn’t this the trick he taught Andre to manage serfs?

Wu Qingchen remembered that when he was entangled again a few days ago, he seemed to have talked to Little Nina about his experience in the commons.

It turns out that the time is determined, and then I know I'm getting up late...

but……

"What are you doing with sticking to the grass?" Wu Qingchen still found it strange: "I mean, why do you want to know when I get up...soon or later?"

"..." Nina lowered her head and said nothing.

Don’t ask too much questions and urge people to immature minds.

Remembering the training of the earth, Wu Qingchen turned his voice to the "gentle" level: "What's wrong? Nina?"

While waiting for Nina to speak, Wu Qingchen also looked at the wooden house carefully.

Wu Qingchen soon noticed that the position of the broom has changed, but the firewood branches have not been replenished, and the bucket is empty...

On the other side: there are traces of wet mud on the little Nina's wooden shoes, the basket is filled with water spinach, and the loose-eared wooden steak is not moved from a high place...

Some of the work in the wooden house was done, and some of the work outside the house was done.

Work in two places is being done in turn...

This is obviously very unreasonable, a very time-consuming and laborious step...

There is no need to see more. Based on the observation ability and logical derivation method specially trained by the Earth team, Wu Qingchen instantly understood the reason why Nina stuck a small grass on the sundial.

Wu Qingchen's guess is correct.

When Wu Qingchen understood, little Nina began to stammer: "I...I'm so happy to see my brother...I'm just sticking to the grass...I put all the noisy and noisy work behind... In this way, my brother can...I can sleep better and sleep later...I...I really don't want to...I don't want to ruin my brother's things..."

Speaking of this, little Nina's tears have already flowed out.

"It's okay, Nina, don't cry! The thing is not broken...the thing is very good..."

Wu Qingchen quickly stood up, walked around the dining table and held Nina's shoulders, staring at her sister's eyes sincerely: "The thing is not broken, really... Nina should not cry, don't cry..."

"Really?" Nina asked timidly.

"Really! It's definitely not bad!" Wu Qingchen nodded vigorously.

Nina stopped crying.

"Nina..."

After comforting for a while, Wu Qingchen stood up and looked back at the sundial. Looking at the grass tail that was swinging back and forth in the breeze, Wu Qingchen patted Nina's head, "...you are very smart."

It's really smart.

The Earth team can master the most basic way to use sundials with just a few words. The judgment of the Earth team is quite accurate, and Nina is indeed very potential.

Sitting back to the dining table, the two continued to eat.

“Wow…wow…”

After about ten minutes, breakfast is almost over.

At this moment, the sound of children crying in the wooden house.

Both of them turned back at the same time.

The crying was his younger brother Pavo, the youngest member of the William family.

Wu Qingchen also discovered that Pavo and Kalma, two little guys who could only crawl, were specially carried by Nina to the farthest position of the bed when she was sleeping.
