Chapter 8 Girl Anna
  You can go to the blacksmith shop in the town to work, and then you can also gain professional experience as a blacksmith apprentice!
  but
  According to the memory of the original person, Boris, the blacksmith and owner of this blacksmith shop, is stingy. Unless you are an experienced helper who can produce, otherwise, if you want to learn any craft, you will have to pay a fee. The apprenticeship fee is not cheap, it seems to be five or ten silver coins.

Ren's family will definitely not be able to get this money at this stage.

It seems that we need to think of other ways!

"Hello, Aunt Xima."

"Hello, little Renn. After working as a servant for a week, I feel energetic and strong!" Aunt Sima greeted Renn kindly. She was familiar with Renn's mother.

Huh, really?

At first, Ren thought Aunt Seema was just talking politely.

But he raised his arm and looked at his originally numb arm, but now it actually had the appearance of slightly bulging muscles, especially the biceps.

Ren immediately lifted up his clothes and looked at his abdomen, and he could vaguely see eight-pack abs.

You know, although it is easy for thin people to develop abdominal muscles, it turns out that this body has absolutely no abdominal muscles, not even a shadow.

But now, with a little exercise, I guess I can have obvious abdominal muscles.

It seems that the effect of this little bit of strength is immediate!
  Renn stopped in front of a two-story house with a triangular roof.

The roof of the house is sloping and covered with thatch. Except for the surrounding walls, which are made of earth, the other parts are made of wood.

There are some open spaces in front and behind the house where some onions and vegetables are planted.

A woman was bending over and pulling something out in the open space. She seemed to have noticed someone coming and straightened up.

"Ren, is Ren back?"

Looking at the woman's kind and dignified face, related memories surged up like a spring, and various warm scenes flowed through Ren's mind like slides. Ren blurted out: "Mother, it's me! I'm back!"

"Let me see, after seeing you for a few days, Ren, you have become stronger. It seems that the manor's food for you servants is pretty good." The mother smiled and hugged Ren.

For a moment, Renn felt inexplicably moved.

He didn't know if this feeling was a natural reaction of his body.

It is still an instinct of being a human being.

But he knew that this kind of touching came from the heart, from the depths of his soul.

The other party was the original mother, and she is also his mother now!
  "Brother! Is brother back?" A delicate little girl with long hair suddenly ran in from the backyard, picking a handful of green onions in her hand.

Renn instantly superimposed a little girl named Mint with the scene in front of him.

This is Mint, his sister!
  "Mint!" Ren picked up his sister and spun her around, making Mint giggle.

Not long after, Ren's father also came back, a burly man with a very simple appearance, a Chinese character face, but there were a lot of wrinkles on his forehead, and he seemed to be worried about more things.

Seeing Renn, he showed a smile, patted Renn's shoulder with his thick calloused palms, and said: "Renn, you have grown stronger! It seems that you have grown a little taller!"

"Father! Thank you for your hard work!" Renn hugged his father hard.

Although Old Ren didn't know why his child was suddenly so sensational! But I still happily hugged Ren!

night.

A family of four sat warmly around a wooden table and had dinner together.

Dinner was a portion of bacon, a large plate of mashed potatoes, a few pieces of rye bread, and a bottle of milk.

In an ordinary civilian family, this is already a big meal!

Apparently, this is because today is Wren's day to go home.

Normally, Old Ren would be reluctant to eat such good food.

But after Ren devoured his portion, he found that he was only half full.

Now that he is in a period of rapid physical growth, he is already able to eat. There was a proverb in his previous life: A half-grown man will eat a poor man.

What's more, Renn also added some attributes. Since adding that little strength, it seems to have drained the last bit of nutritional reserves stored in his body. Renn feels that he has been able to eat very well in the past two days.

Moreover, the thought of eating meat has been lingering in my mind!
  So, after he finished his portion, Ren couldn't help but swallow his saliva and reluctantly turned his eyes away from the food.

The mother took one look and immediately noticed something: "Ren, are you not full? I'll give you these two pieces of bacon. I'm full."

"Brother, I'm still young, so I'll give you this mashed potato." Little Mint pushed a pot of mashed potatoes in front of Ren's eyes.

"Ren, here I am." Old Ren also said. "this"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Ren's eyes became a little moist.

If Renn's previous efforts were due to his desire to change the status quo as a time traveler, and his longing for this extraordinary world!

But from now on, Renne's motivation will be even more intense!
  Eventually, Wren accepted the bacon and mashed potatoes from his mother and Mint, but refused the bread from his father.

Because he knew that his father had a physical job and needed more nutrition than he did.

That night, Renn slept deeply!

Early the next morning, old Renn declined Renn's request to help in the farmland and went out early, while his mother also went to the small town hotel to help.

Only Ren himself and his sister Mint are left at home.

When Ren followed his sister's voice to the small yard, he found that his sister Mint was planting carrots in his small yard with a girl.

"Brother, are you up? I'm planting carrots with sister Anna." Little Mint greeted with a smile.

Anna?

Yes, that's my neighbor.

A taciturn little girl, it is said that she came to live in Goldshire with her mother, but her mother mysteriously disappeared a year ago.

Now, she lives alone in the wooden house next to Ren's house.

The girl turned her head. The outline of her face was beautiful, but her face had a vegetable color, as if she had been in a state of malnutrition all year round. Her light yellow hair was a bit dry and bifurcated, but her deep brown pupils revealed a kind of perseverance. The beauty.

"Hello Leren." The girl lowered her head and greeted in a reserved tone.

In terms of age, Ren seemed to be several months older than the girl.

In my impression, the girl always looked like she was afraid of strangers.

"Hello Anna!"

Just when Ren wanted to help them, the voice of his best friend George came from the door: "Ren, let's go pick up nuts."

"Brother, I want to go too!" Mint said excitedly when he heard that Ren was going to pick up nuts.

Anna on the side seemed to have longing in her eyes.

But after thinking about it, Ren still refused. After all, this time he was going to the woodland of the Habsburg Manor, and he was going with George.

It would be very inappropriate to take people there by yourself.

So, Ren shook his head and said: "Mint, stay at home with sister Anna, brother will bring you nuts back."

"Okay~" Mint said pitifully. Although he was reluctant, he still obeyed.

Sure enough, children from poor families have already become masters.

At such a young age, he is very sensible!

Renn touched Little Mint's head and left with George.

After walking for a while, George suddenly said with a strange look:

"Ren, why is your sister with Anna? Haven't you heard? She is an ominous person."

"Ominous person?" Ren asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"It was also a chance. I heard from my father that Anna's mother didn't seem to be missing. She seemed to have been taken away. But I don't know the details." George glanced around, and when he found no one, he was confused. He said mysteriously.

"You must never reveal it."

"Who was captured?" Ren asked doubtfully.

"I really don't know this!" George said vaguely.

"By the way, Renn, have you heard? Recently, two children from civilian families in the north of our town have gone missing! Remember to remind Mint to stop running around."

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Didn't we say that the disappearance of children occurred in other towns, and our Goldsmith Town is still safe? Now it has spread?" Renn was very surprised.

"I'm not sure about this." George thought for a while, this was another question that touched on his blind spot in knowledge.
