Who is it?

Heath was puzzled. He just came here today, and there should be no one who knows him.

Confused, he blew out the meditation candle and got up and left the meditation room.

He arranged a barrier in the meditation room, and the elements generated when the meditation candles were burned could be sealed in the room, and there was basically no loss of elements.

Coming to the outer room, Heath opened the door.

But I saw three figures standing outside the fence, a man and a woman with a little girl about seven or eight years old, dressed in simple clothes, obviously the civilians nearby.

Heath walked over and asked, "Is something wrong?"

The man said, "Hello... er... I don't know what to call you."

Heath Road: "Heath Norn."

The man put on a polite smile, briefly introduced himself and explained his purpose: "Hello Mr. Noen, we are your neighbors, my name is An Lun, this is my wife Noona, this is my daughter Lily."

"You didn't prepare anything when you moved here. Here are some vegetables we grew and bread we made for you."

An Lun handed over a bamboo basket with some fresh vegetables and bread in it.

Heath was a little surprised, such a hospitable couple is really rare.

He took the basket and said, "Oh, thank you."

Seeing Heath accepting the gift, An Lun's smile became wider, and he continued to say enthusiastically: "Everyone will be neighbors in the future. If you need help with anything, you can come to us at any time, no need to see outsiders."

Heath nodded: "Okay."

As he spoke, he opened the fence of the fence and made way for a path, inviting, "Come in and have a cup of tea."

An Lun shook his head and was ready to refuse.

However, Heath spoke first: "If I don't even offer a cup of tea when I receive a gift from someone else, it will make my conscience uneasy."

After hearing this, An Lun could only swallow the words that came to his mouth.

"This..."

He exchanged glances with his wife Nona,

Then he nodded and said, "Then I'll disturb you."

The three entered the courtyard.

After entering, the eyes of the three of them became surprised, and they couldn't stop looking around at the small courtyard, looking very puzzled.

After all, this abandoned lighthouse had been idle for several years before, and the abandoned courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and even a lot of ghost stories were derived from it. It is a well-known haunted place nearby.

Previously, An Lun wanted to refuse Heath's invitation mainly because he was worried that the other party's house had not been cleaned up, and entering at this time would make the other party feel embarrassed.

However, the small courtyard is now clean and tidy, with the appearance of birds and flowers.

After entering the cabin in front, their eyes looked like they had seen a ghost, and there was still a little bit of dilapidation in it, as if it had just been repaired.

Seeing the different expressions of the three, Heath couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

An Lun said: "This... This place doesn't seem to be the same as the huts we see on weekdays..."

Heath simply explained: "Really? I cleaned up in the afternoon."

is that so?

Although there were some doubts, An Lun and the others didn't take it too seriously. They just thought that they didn't pay much attention to it on weekdays. The hut was not as dilapidated as they thought.

Sitting down at the wooden table, Heath took out a cup from the cupboard and poured a cup of tea for each of the three.

Tea is the soul-washing water that Heath often drinks. It is mixed with some honey from flower spirits. It tastes a bit like ordinary honey water. It can wash the soul and restore part of the spiritual power. For ordinary people, it is even more healthy. Longevity effect.

Such a cup of soul-washing water is absolutely priceless in the secular world, and nobles are willing to pay gold coins, manors and even castles for this.

However, what attracted more attention from the three of An Lun now was the teacup filled with water.

The little girl looked at the beautiful oil pattern on the cup, and was extremely surprised: "Yeah! Dad, look, is this a ceramic cup? This must be a ceramic cup, right?"

She asked Heath, "Uncle and uncle, are you a nobleman? You must be a nobleman, right?"

The expressions of An Lun and his wife also became restrained and tense.

There is basically no decent tableware in the homes of ordinary people in this world. The pots and pans are basically made of oak. Such exquisite porcelain can only be afforded by the nobles.

Heath was only regarded as an ordinary neighbor, so they came to visit with enthusiasm, and now it seemed that the gifts they sent were embarrassing.

Both of them blushed uncontrollably.

Heath touched the little girl's pink face and explained, "No, uncle is just a scholar."

The An Lun couple froze for a moment.

An Lun asked: "Scholar...Scholar? Mr. Norn, do you say you are a scholar? Are you a bachelor from Xuecheng?"

Heath shook his head: "No, just an ordinary scholar."

After listening to this, the An Lun couple breathed a sigh of relief.

Although scholars still have noble status compared to ordinary people, compared with nobles, the gap is much smaller, especially scholars without bachelor's titles can be understood as 'scholarly ordinary people'.

The little girl Lily's eyes lit up and suddenly asked, "Scholar? Uncle Heath, you must be literate, right?"

Nona stroked her daughter's hair and laughed, "Since Mr. Norn is a scholar, of course he is literate."

Lily said happily: "Yeah, that's great, Uncle Heath, can you teach me to read?"

The An Lun couple couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed for a while.

Reading and literacy is very expensive, how can the couple afford that cost.

An Lun said quickly: "Mr. Norn, don't mind, Lily is ignorant."

Heath smiled: "It's okay."

He raised his hand and touched Lily's face, and asked, "Why do you want to be literate?"

Lily replied honestly: "I heard from others that as long as you can read, you can make a lot of money, so that my dad doesn't have to work hard at the dock, and he can buy a beautiful dress for my mom."

Heath laughed and said, "Oh, it seems that little Lily is really a sensible little girl."

Lily's eyes lit up and said, "Then... Is that okay? Can you teach me to read? Uncle Heath?"

Heath nodded: "Of course."

After seeing the An Lun couple exchanged looks, they could only ask bravely: "Then... Mr. Norn, this fee..."

Heath raised his finger and pointed to the basket of vegetables: "It has already been paid."

An Lun was shocked: "That's how it works."

Heath shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I don't have anything to do here. I'm idle, and I can just find something to do for myself."

The purpose of living here is to experience life in order to understand some laws from life.

After a pause, Heath continued: "We are all neighbors, and we should help each other. Don't worry about it."
