An Unexpected Encounter

"Mom!" A kid ran across the road, his body was drenched in sweat. 

"Look at you." The mother smiled. While wiping the sweat on her son's forehead, she gave him a small bottle of water. "Here's your drink."

"Thank you, Mom!" The kid smiled as he held the bottle. "To think we could drink whenever we want."

"We should thank the Earl for giving us this opportunity." The mother nodded. Tears couldn't help but form on the corner of her eyes, feeling moved. In the past, just to get the water, she would have to walk to the river or wait in a long line to use the public well. 

"When I'm bigger, I want to be a reliable person and serve the Earl!"

"Is that so? Go for it." The mother smiled. 

Normally, they don't really recommend someone to work in the mansion. While the pay was good, the work was very harsh. 

But this time, their Lord was different. She looked at her child, who had gotten stronger and more cheerful after they moved here.
