The next day after the family meeting, everyone was nervous. My father’s smile seemed somewhat lonely, my mother hugged me many times, and Turi suddenly started crying.

However, as the days go by, I will gradually return to a normal life that is not different from before the family meeting.

“You don’t have to do Mine. I will do it.”

“Yeah, I’ll do it too, but Turi told me I wouldn’t be able to do it”

No doubt that Turi, who encouraged my help for self-reliance, tried to take up his work and was over-protected to me, but it was restored.

“Wow, it was sunny! I have to go to Parlu today!”

This morning, I was awakened by the voice of Turi.

It’s still a dim sky, but there seems to be almost no clouds. Looking at the light that came in a bit, Turi opened the window to check the weather, so I liked the cool air outside.

“Turi is cold”

“Oh, sorry, sorry”

Close the window and Turi begins breakfast. I also had breakfast in a busy family.

Father and mother who have finished eating breakfast are preparing their meals. My father, who started to line up at the entrance, looked back at me chewing bread.

“What will Mine do? Waiting at the gate?”

“Hmm, can I go for paru?”

Judging from the story of Turi, the tree named Parlou seems to be a beautiful mysterious plant. It was so beautiful that I couldn’t understand the expression.

The whole family picked up my words from such pure interest.

“No! Mine is either an answering machine at home or an assistant at the gate”

“Palu picking is difficult, so it’s impossible for Mine. I’ll definitely heat up”

“That’s right! I’m not good at climbing trees and I can’t walk in the snow”

Accompanying Paluru to enter the winter forest was rejected by the whole family. Certainly, I can’t walk in the snow and go to the gate, so I can’t collect in the snow forest.

“… I understand. What’s the paru picking up until noon? Then I’ll be waiting for you at the gate”

Prepared tote bag and I prepared to go to the gate.

I thought that if my father was absent, Otto would also be absent, but this time Otto seems to be on the gate almost every day.

The family departed on a slightly larger sledge with a baggage used for paru and me.

It is no mistake that people in the city are saying to pick up paru.

The air is so cold that it pierces the skin, but the atmosphere of the people who are excited about the expectation of picking up the paru has an exhilarating feeling like a festival, and it excites me.

“Bad, but ask for Mine. Helped Otto until noon.”

“Huh!”

“Everyone should work hard and pick up paru”

When I was taken down at the gate and forgoed my family heading to the forest, I greeted the face-friendly gatekeeper and headed to the inn room.

“Good morning, Otto-san”

“That? Maine? Is the team leader off?”

I cried with a small laugh, over mysteriously blinking Otto.

“Yes, it’s sunny today so I went to pick up paru. I’ll help you with your answering machine at the gate”

“Oh, I see. Well then, until noon”

Otto, who seemed to be immediately aware of the situation, smiled and started to pile up materials to check the calculation.

I thank Otto for leaving a place to work.

“Thank you Otto, the other day”

“What?”

“Well, I had a job consultation. I decided to look for work at home by talking about eating with my family. In the spring, I thought I would talk to Benno. …… “

“Yes. Well, if Mine-chan’s physical condition is important and Benno doesn’t recognize you, you can ask him to work at home from here.”

“Yes!”

I still worried about the smile that makes me feel a little black, but I was able to express my gratitude, so I started my calculations with a refreshing feeling.

Since the family came back from the forest around noon, I went home on a sleigh again. Today, three people picked up, so it seems that six paru were picked. Unlike last year, the use of squeezed residue is a result of my mom.

We squeeze paru while my mother is preparing lunch.

Turi ignited the fire on the thinest dead branch out of the pot, and pressed it against Paru. The next moment, only that part will be broken.

“Mine, come out!”

“Yes”

Take the thick white juice into a bowl so as not to spill it. When I was finished picking paru juice while fascinated by the sweet smell, Turi gave my father paru.

Father crushes fruit and removes oil. You can use the weight for squeezing, so if you leave it to your father, the oil will be squeezed in no time.

squeezed after squeezing the oil is useful for cooking, so I will leave 4 pieces in my house and bring the other 2 pieces to my home in Lutz for exchange with eggs did.

After lunch, bring a new paru recipe with the pomace. At the very least, if you have an oven, you can make gratin and pizza, but there are only a limited number of dishes that can be made with only an iron plate and pan.

“Hello, please replace the Lutz. Egg. Incidentally, new recipes are you?”

“Yeah, Mine. I’m happy with the new work, but it’s impossible to make it right away because there aren’t any hands on it. Wait and get in.”

Although I brought new recipes, Onii-chan seems to be absent.

“Where did your brothers go? Sunny and sledding?”

“They went to the snow shovel to make money”

I don’t know because I haven’t participated, but it seems that hard work snow shoveling is also a place for children to make good money.

“Why is Rutz?”

“If I don’t squeeze Parru, will it melt if I leave it like this?”

Certainly I can’t leave Parlou, but it looks just like pushing the help of a house where I can’t get any money, and I feel a little hazy. If Lutz and Aunt don’t say anything, it’s not an outsider’s mine.

¡At least I wanted to help Paru, but it was basically a hard work and I didn’t have a turn. You can only look at Lutz crushed with Dandan and a hammer, and Aunt Carla squeezing.

I was quietly looking at the work and remembered that I hadn’t reported the family meeting to Lutz. If you decide not to enter the Benno store, you must report to Lutz.

“That’s Lutz. I decided to stop entering Benno’s shop”

“Wow! Why?”

Lutz opened his eyes and turned over with the hammer raised. Aunt Carla also looked lightly and looked over here.

“Well, my mom also said, Lutz’s footsteps. And my physical strength, no matter how I thought, it wouldn’t work. When I talked to Otto, I pointed out many other things.

“What are various things?”

Lutz urged to continue with his gaze while moving Dandan and the hammer again.

“Yeah. What does it look like for the people around you to work together because the new apprentice is out of the heat and rests?”

“… Oh, that’s …”

Lutz hits Paru with a slightly convinced voice. Aunt Carla squeezed her eyes while squeezing a tight paru.

“If you are rested too much, it will be a nuisance to others, and it is your own trouble to rest during education.”

“That’s right … and I’m still going to make a variety of products, so if you get the profits, it would be a good amount of money?” It ’s supposed to break human relationships ”

“… That’s right”

Lutz whispered as if he was satisfied with his eyebrows, but his aunt was astonished a little.

“Well, I think this salary will also be related to Lutz, but if you work seriously, it will be a little different. For more information, you should consult Benno. I think it ’s good. ”

“Oh, let’s talk properly in the spring”

I think that it is possible to sneak a salary and profit separately. Even now, you can get money just by matching guild cards.

“What would Mine do after the baptism if he stopped going to the store?”

“In my case, I don’t know what to eat, so I write letters and documents at home, make products and help the gate … I spoke with my family. “

“Well, that might be better for Mine’s body”

Lutz agreed with me and I exhaled with relief. At the same time, Aunt Carla’s facial expression becomes brighter.

“Oh, well. If Mine doesn’t go, Lutz doesn’t have to go. Now you can be a craftsman.”

What kind of relationship does Lutz stop when I stop going to the Benno store? Unlike me, who tilted her head, Lutz lifted her eyebrows to the voice of an aunt who was relieved.

“Huh? What are you saying, mother?”

“What is it?”

Lutz shouted with a light tongue while Aunt Carla had an expression that she could not understand at all.

“I want to be a merchant! Mine doesn’t matter! Rather I was involved!”

In his words, Aunt stares at Lutz as if she cannot believe it.

“What is it? Then, are you still going to be a merchant?”

“That’s natural! I really wanted to be a travel merchant, but I heard about citizenship from a travel merchant and decided to become a merchant in the city.”

“Lutz, you didn’t say that!”

“You said! You didn’t hear me or remember it!”

It seems that the story was not really understood. Aunt Carla looks at Lutz with the face she heard for the first time.

I decided not to disturb the parent-child conversation, so I decided to keep an eye on it.

“… I heard you wanted to be a travel merchant”

Aunt Carla shook her head weakly as she was in trouble. It seems that there is truth in a place different from my expectation and I am confused.

“But that’s a child’s nonsense, isn’t it possible to be with a dream story, isn’t a real story at all? I didn’t think Lutz really aimed. I thought I would actually see the reality over time. ”

I don’t think Aunt Carla’s words are unreasonable. Other than going to the forest or the nearest farm village, the residents of the city rarely go out of town.

A travel merchant is a Gentile who stops by and is not a target for the future. It ’s a child ’s nonsense. The thought of Aunt Carla who wanted to see the reality quickly would be a normal way of thinking here.

“… I really wanted to be a travel merchant. I would like to leave this city and go to a town I don’t know. I thought, and I still think, my dreams haven’t changed. “

“Lutz, you …”

Aunt Carla lifted her butt and tried to say something. Something that can be criticized even if you think about it from the face.

But Lutz said before the aunt opened her mouth.

“But I was told by a person who was a travel merchant. It’s a fool to abandon citizenship. It’s impossible for me because there’s no apprentice to a travel merchant.”

“That’s right.”

Aunt Carla exhales and sits down again, as if relieved.

Well, a traveling merchant seems to be an evasive occupation. It seems that it seems to be fun to go to various places, but I still don’t seem to have enough common sense here.

“It wasn’t an apprentice for a travel merchant, but when I was thinking about becoming a travel merchant from scratch, Mine told me. Yes, you might be able to become a merchant and buy for other towns, which was a more realistic and feasible future than being a travel merchant. “

“Well, than a traveling merchant …”

Aunty Carla said in a tired voice and gave up her shoulder. It seems that he really didn’t think his son was going to be a travel merchant, and he was shocked lightly.

“That’s why I asked the merchant to have an apprentice. Because I was acquainted with Mine’s acquaintance, I was about to decline.”

“I guess …”

Considering the city’s apprenticeship system, there was little probability that Lutz could become a merchant apprentice.

So, maybe even if you wanted to be a merchant, your aunt had only heard it properly. Perhaps he was only listening to half of the story when Lutz reported that he could become a merchant apprentice.

“But the condition was given and he promised to apprentice if he met the condition. I’ve already met the condition with Mine and have permission to apprentice. I’ll be a merchant with or without Mine. “

Realizing Lutz, who started making his own path, Aunt Carla finally turned her eyes and looked at Lutz with a little harsh eyes.

“… Lutz, do you think you can really become a merchant after getting permission from your apprentice to overcome your parents’ opposition?”

“Worst, even if you become a living apprentice, I have decided that I will be a merchant. I have been told the conditions to become an apprentice and finally opened the way to become an apprentice. I’m not going to give up. “

“Isn’t it an apprenticeship in the house …?”

Living apprentices become the worst living environment. First of all, apprentices can only work for half a week, so their salary is low. And no family can rely on. It is quite difficult for a child to do all the housework by living alone.

The place to live is the top floor attic, hot in summer and cold in winter. It is not uncommon to leak rain. Carrying luggage and water is difficult. It’s not uncommon to keep birds in the attic space like Lutz’s house, so it smells terrible.

Unlike rooms for renting to families, there is no place to boil, so you can ask a store person to borrow or eat out.

Naturally, there is no such thing as money remaining at hand, and only borrowing money is saved by borrowing in advance. Although the shop will take care of you to the extent that you don’t die, living apprentices will only work until you are full.

“Lutz, think carefully! You can’t live that life!”

I don’t think there is a decent parent who wants his son to live such a hard life. Aunt Carla screamed. But Lutz only gave up his shoulder lightly.

“I can do it. I’m just getting ready for it.”

In the case of Rutz, money can be saved in spring by making paper. If you use the white skin and black skin that you have stored in the warehouse, you can save a lot of money before the baptismal ceremony. Even if you prepare clothes and other preparations to become merchant apprentices, it is a calculation that requires some money.

And during the apprenticeship, half of the week is off, but if you use that vacation to develop a new product with me, you can get the profit. If that happens, there will no doubt be more profit than apprentice salary.

I will not be able to afford a life, but it should not be a very poor life. I don’t think I can afford to rent a room for one person, so I can’t really manage the living environment.

“… Is it serious that you’re preparing?”

“I’m serious”

After a while of silence, Aunt Carla gave a deep sigh. She drops her shoulders with a complex face that she gave up because she knew Lutz’s seriousness, but still couldn’t give up.

“I think craftsmen who work steadily better than ups and downs merchants may be more stable”

“… If you become a craftsman as your father says, it will be like this”

Aunt Carla narrowed her eyes to Lutz, who sharpened her lips. It was as if I was dissatisfied with my current life, and the atmosphere was sharp.

“What does this mean?”

“I used it well for my brothers, and I was taken up by my brothers’ feelings and nothing left behind me.”

“That’s … I’m a brother, so I can get it, but can I get it?”

Aunt Carla put her eyebrows in trouble. Lutz dismisses such an aunt’s claim.

“If you eat, it won’t come back, and what you get is just a broken fall. Because the fall is so bad, you get picked up as soon as you get new things.” [19459002 ]

Because it is the youngest, everything is the same as me. But I’m just helped by Turi, and Lutz is dominated by the brothers’ fate or more than helping each other. This difference is great.

“I witnessed the merchant’s work and worked hard with Mine to learn that my achievements remain in my hands. I want to test my power without being disturbed. I have no idea that I want to be. “

Lutz, who had been holding his head down, found an environment that was not controlled by his family. I was able to secure a place where my dream could come true.

Aunt Carla whispered while drooping.

“I didn’t think Lutz was so serious. I was just being swayed by Mine …”

“That’s why I won’t decide a lifetime job”

“I was against it because I thought so, I”

Aunty Carla turns her eyes down while exhaling a deep sigh. The aunt, who had been thinking for a while, slowly lifted her head and smiled.

“Thinking so much and getting ready to leave the house seriously, if you want to do what you can do, just do it. I’ll give you it. “

“Is it really? Thank you, mother!”

Batt and Lutz’s face shone. Lutz, who had given up being understood by his family, jumped up and rejoiced because he couldn’t believe it.

I slackened my cheeks to look like Luz’s childish figure, which he was trying to look ahead. If there is one person in your family who will be on your side, you will feel completely different.

Lutz remained in good spirits even after the brothers came home. Let’s make a new recipe with everyone.

“Zasha Ni-chan warms the iron plate. Lutz puts plenty of grated cheese in Paru’s squeeze, and then Ralph chops the leaves in small pieces?”

Dispatching the work to each, I added Paru’s oil and salt into a bowl where Lutz was grated cheese.

After adding the basil-like herbs chopped by Ralph, just mix well and bake.

“The iron plate has warmed up”

“Buy this, like a parrot cake”

よ く Eat well until the melted cheese is crisp. It looks like okonomiyaki, but grated cheese works well and the taste is Western.

This is a recipe for using surplus that was made by chopping up some noodles and spaghetti that were boiled during the Reino period.

“It’s easy, don’t collect in the belly”

“It’s also good to add small chopped ham and vegetables”

“And then, unlike Parr cake, it looks like rice”

Everyone laughs deliciously and eats the same food. Meanwhile, Ralph tried to take the part of Lutz who had changed, and ate a fist from Carla.

“I don’t take someone else’s stuff. It’s nasty. Should I burn another?”

Ralf and Lutz, who ate their fists, slightly round their eyes. Later, Ralph began to bake himself, saw Lutz who started to eat with peace of mind, and his aunt loosened her cheek.

Lutz’s family problem seems to have calmed down for the time being because of a strong understanding of the mother.

The withdrawal life continues.

I repeated hand-working, Lutz tutors and gate helpers and pulling colds and going to sleep, Lutz carried the heel part to my house, and occasionally completed hair ornaments in Benno’s shop Repeat the life that brings you.

Over time, snowstorms gradually weakened, and the winter of withdrawal was over.
