One Piece: In the Name of the Father

Chapter 9 Blacksmith Ayane
Soon, Ayane fed a bowl of gruel to Matsurize.

After that, Ayane kept changing the handkerchief on Matsurizawa's forehead to keep the handkerchief in a high temperature state at all times.

After that, Ayane gave Matsurize the potion again, and it was still the same.

Ayane has never been so close to anyone since her mother left, and even in some normal interpersonal interactions, Ayane is also very withdrawn.

It was already in the afternoon, and Matsurize still hadn't woken up, but it seemed that Matsurize's condition was much better.

Ayane has been taking care of Matsurizawa at the bedside. During this period, she just went to collect the dirty clothes and tidy up the kitchen.

The rest did nothing, just found a bench here, sat in front of Matsurize, and looked at Matsurize.

Just then, a voice came in.

"Ayane, little Ayane, are you at home?"

Someone came looking for Ayane.

When Ayane heard the cry, she went out immediately. After seeing someone coming, Ayane said to the person.

"Uncle Abin, your hoe is broken again, didn't I just fix it for you?"

This person is also from the village, a middle-aged uncle, a farmer, and he is manipulating the fields every day.

As for what Ayane said, about repairing a hoe for Uncle Abin, this is about Ayane's ancestral business.

Ayane's ancestors were blacksmiths for generations, and they made a living by making farm tools for others in the village.

At a young age, Lingyin raised herself by relying on this ancestral business. Unlike her ancestors, she is not only good at making farm tools, but also good at making other instruments.

And in Ayane's small courtyard, the east courtyard next to the east house is the kitchen and woodshed.

And in the west courtyard of the yard is her blacksmith room.

This blacksmith's room is larger than the kitchen and the firewood room combined, and it is very spacious.

Uncle Abin, the farmer who came to the door, said to Ayane.

"No, no, Ayane, how could the hoe you repaired break down so quickly? My plowshare is broken. When my stupid cow was working in the field, it broke the plowshare. Isn't that true? , I can only come to you."

After Uncle Abin finished speaking, he unloaded the plowshare behind his back.

Uncle Abin's plowshare is not very big, it is a small plowshare.

That's why Uncle Abin carried it behind his back just now, but Ayane hasn't noticed it yet.

Ayane came forward and opened the gate in the yard. The gate in the yard of Ayane's house was two simple doors made of wood.

Ayane stepped forward and opened the latch of the wooden door. Ayane picked up Uncle Abin's plowshare in one hand and came to the middle of the yard.

Uncle Abin had obviously seen Ayane's natural supernatural power a long time ago, so he wasn't surprised at all.

In fact, it's not that Ayane's strength is a natural divine power, but that Ayane's strength has been cultivated in her ancestral business since she was a child.

Ayane looked at it for a while, then said to Uncle Abin.

"Uncle Abin, you plowsharer shouldn't be looking for a blacksmith, you should be looking for a carpenter!"

Abin was a little embarrassed to face Ayane's questioning, but he still said to Ayane boldly.

"Little Ayane, you don't know. There is no carpenter in our village. It would cost too much to go to Shipwreck Harbor. Good Ayane, please help me. I'll give you five hundred Baileys as a reward, uh, no , It’s six hundred, good Ayane, uncle, I can only pay seven hundred bery at most, so you just do what you want! How can our family live without this hoe!”

Uncle Abin's plowshare wasn't made entirely of iron, otherwise Ayane wouldn't have said that he should go to a carpenter.

Ayane looked at the plowshare and found that the wooden handle of the plowshare was mainly broken, and the iron implements under the plowshare used to break the soil were not damaged.

This plowshare is easy to say, but also difficult to say, it is obvious that Abin can't repair it, otherwise he wouldn't have come to Ayin's house.

Lingyin was not swayed by Abin's price increase. She was kind-hearted by nature, and when she heard Uncle Abin say that her family could not survive, she agreed softly.

In fact, Ayane used to be able to repair or build anything here, but in recent years, Ayane has spent a lot of time going to the shipwreck port.

Therefore, in the past few years, Ayane has spent very little time in the village, and basically does not take jobs other than blacksmithing.

Abin knew this, but Abin had no other choice, so he asked to come to the door.

Another reason for Ayane's agreement was that she thought that she would take care of the wounded Matsurize and would be at home recently, so she happened to take over Uncle Abin's work.

So, what Uncle Abin should thank most is Matsurize, a stranger.

Ayane agreed, but she told Abin.

"Uncle Abin, I agreed, but don't tell the outside world, I don't want to cause unnecessary trouble."

Uncle Abin said quickly.

"Sure, sure, uncle, who am I? Little Lingyin, don't you know? I promise you never to say anything."

Seeing what Abin said, Lingyin thought about it, that Uncle Abin is indeed an honest person, and his promises are still guaranteed.

Ayane continued talking to Uncle Abin.

"Then uncle, you come to pick it up tomorrow, pay the money with one hand, and deliver the goods with the other hand."

When Ayane said this, she meant to see off guests. She seems to not like being disturbed by others when she builds these instruments. This is also part of the influence of her withdrawn personality.

Seeing that Ayane was seeing off the guests, Abin didn't bother him any more, and left Ayane's house happily.

Ayane looked at the plowshare. She worked very fast, and within a few minutes, she disassembled the plowshare.

She found that only the wood of the plowshare was damaged on the main part of the plowshare, and the rest was not much damaged.

Ayane has strong hands-on skills. She remembered that there was still a piece of wood of this size in the firewood room, and the carpenter's tools that had been placed in the blacksmith room.

Soon, in less than an hour, every part of a simple plowshare was completely new.

Now Ayane will ask them to come over the next day no matter how much time it takes to do these tasks.

This is why Ayane doesn't rely on these for food now, in order to avoid too many people in the village disturbing her, she did this on purpose.

Ayane put the plow in the yard, went back to the house, and continued to take care of Matsurize.

Matsurize hasn't woken up yet, and it looks like he won't wake up today.

Ayane took care of Matsu Rizawa, staring at Matsu Rizawa with a very gentle gaze, Ayane seemed to put a kind of emotion that she lacked into Matsu Rize, or to put it another way, Ayane hopes that Matsurizawa will give her the part of her missing emotion after she wakes up.
