Chapter 198 Wu Yingchun
Chapter 198 Wu Yingchun
Sun Qian understood immediately, and hurried to another room, opened the door, and called out all the men inside.
More than ten men came out, and these men were much cleaner than these children.
But without exception, everyone was skinny and pale.
"Those who think they are good at cooking should stand up."
At first, two men stood up immediately, and then the other men behind them reacted and stood up slowly after hesitating.
Lin Dadan didn't say much. He directly selected the first four men who stood up, and then selected ten boys from the children over twelve years old.
Finally, among the children under the age of twelve, she chose a little boy who had been looking at her with longing eyes.
Because she and Zhou Xiaofeng were busy all day, it was not good for Lin Fei to stay at Lin Jiaojiao's house all the time. In addition, Zhou Xiaofeng had to boil hot water for them and clean the house every night when he returned home, so he was very tired after a day's work.
Originally, she wanted to choose an older boy, but the little guy's eyes were so passionate that she felt pity for him.
"What's your name? How old are you?"
When the little boy saw her stop in front of him, he quickly raised his dirty face and smiled and replied obediently.
"My name is Wu Yingchun, and I'm eleven years old this year. My father said that when I was born, the winter jasmine happened to be in bloom, so he gave me this name."
"It's a good name. Your father must love you very much."
"Yes, Dad said he would protect me in heaven and told me not to be afraid when I encounter difficulties."
...
Lin Jiaojiao stood at the gate and breathed in the cool air, and her stomach felt better. Thinking that Lin Dadan would probably be busy for a while, she greeted the dentist and went to look for where she could buy hawthorn fruit.
I asked along the way and found out that they were not sold freshly made, but I could pick them there. However, they were too sour and no one would pick them to eat.
There were hawthorn trees on the hillside outside the city, so she directly asked two girls to help her pick two baskets and send them to Zhishi Dessert Shop, and she would give them fifteen cents each.
The two girls didn't expect to encounter such a good thing, so they hurried home, picked up the bamboo baskets, put them on their backs, and ran towards the hillside outside the city.
Later she went to the iron shop and asked about the progress of her custom-made iron pot. She felt relieved when she learned that it could be made tonight.
After finishing this matter, she saw that it was almost time, so she returned to the stable of the pawnshop and saw Lin Dadan leading the people who had washed and changed into warm new clothes and standing beside the carriage waiting for her.
Lin Dadan came forward with the indenture contract and said, "Boss, take a look. There are fourteen men and six women."
She took the indenture and glanced at it, then glanced at the group of people behind her. This glance made the people behind her lower their heads nervously, fearing that their master would be unhappy and send them back.
The moment they were brought to the inn by Lin Dadan to wash with hot water, they never wanted to go back to that narrow, dark and rotten house, especially after putting on the cotton-padded jackets, their thoughts became even more determined.
This was the first time for them to wear such nice clothes. Their thin, worn, dirty and smelly clothes had been thrown away by Lin Dadan, who said that it was a way for them to say goodbye to the past and welcome the future.
In fact, Lin Dadan felt that his clothes gave off a sour smell, and Lin Jiaojiao was afraid that she would be suffocated on the way back.
As expected, when people have money they become more particular. Lin Jiaojiao didn't care about these things before. Sometimes when she was too busy, she would come to help her carry manure and apply fertilizer without any expression.
At that time, she even suspected that the child had a blocked nose. Now it seems that her previous maturity and stability were all forced.
"Okay, let's take them back to Zhishi first, and let Lin Fen take some of them back first."
"Good owner."
Lin Jiaojiao watched her take the large group away, then got on the carriage. Ge You lay down and clicked on the slaves in the mall, flipping through the newly updated slave information card. After she got familiar with it, she looked at the more than 5,000 points in the upper right corner.
Alas, I used to think that points were out of reach, but now I can get them easily.
Although she has points now and doesn't have to work as hard as before, she still feels very tired every day. Her quality of life has improved, but she feels more tired instead.
But if she doesn’t find something to do, in this age without video games and internet surfing, she thinks she might have many children in the future…
However, what she didn't know was that she would indeed have many children in the future, but of course that is a story for later.
Lin Jiaojiao dozed off in the carriage for a while. Lin Dadan came back and lifted the curtain to see her dozing off. She got into the carriage and drove slowly towards Zhiwei Hotel.
However, after arriving at the location, she had to wake up Lin Jiaojiao because she was leaning on the cloth bag.
"Boss, please lie down over there for a while. I'll take these two bags to the store first."
Lin Jiaojiao opened her eyes dazedly, leaned towards the other side of the bag, and continued to close her eyes and squint. She felt sleepy even though she didn't take a nap.
Lin Dadan brought the two cloth bags into the store and put them away. After checking again to make sure everything was alright, he locked the door and continued driving the carriage towards Zhishi Dessert Shop.
However, when the car stopped for the second time, Lin Jiaojiao had to wake up.
She just got off the car and was about to check the store to see how the food was selling.
As a result, the wooden sign at the door said Sold Out, so she walked in and said to Liu Wen who was calculating the bill.
"Business is so good today? They're sold out so early?"
Liu Wen looked up in surprise when she heard the voice and put down the abacus in her hand.
"Boss, you're here. Business is good today. We sold out at noon. Someone came to apply for a silver card today. There are also many people applying for the other two cards. In addition, some old customers keep asking when the preserves will be available."
She took the membership card account book handed over by Liu Wen, listened to her report with a smile, and wondered if she should sell new candied haws and other things tomorrow?
However, when she turned to the name of the person who applied for the silver card, her smile froze and then her face darkened.
This Qi Yao is really haunting us!
Although she successfully changed the subject of the hidden weapons, he also took her to experience the ancient unique light skills, but he was too stingy and was not worth making close friends with.
Thinking about what happened to her that night, it really made her look so handsome. I wonder if that man kept it a secret for her?
"Is there anyone delivering hawthorn berries?"
"not yet."
She returned the account book to Liu Wen, found a place to sit and wait. Just when she thought no one would come, she heard a clear girl's voice.
"Is anyone here? Someone asked us to pick two baskets of hawthorns. Oh, sister, you are here. We picked the fruits."
"Thank you for your hard work. Come to the store tomorrow and get a bunch of candied haws each."
The two girls took the copper coins she handed over and were counting them happily. When they heard that there would be free candied haws tomorrow, they looked up in surprise.
"Thank you, sister! Happy New Year! If you want this next time, we can go pick it."
"Okay, I'll call you if I need you."
Liu Wen, who was beside her, memorized the two people's appearance, then helped Lin Dadan pour all the two large baskets of hawthorns into the cloth bag, and carried the full bag of fruits into the carriage.
After cleaning up, Lin Dadan went to the backyard of the shop and called out the remaining servants, and asked them to follow Lin Jiaojiao and get on the carriage one by one.
On the way back, Lin Jiaojiao felt that the atmosphere in this narrow carriage was very awkward. In order to prevent them from being too restrained, she had to close her eyes and rest.
The other people in the carriage kept their heads down and sat quietly. In fact, they were very nervous inside. They didn't expect that they could sit in the same carriage with their master.
They don’t know where they will go, but they can sense that their future life will definitely be better than their previous one!
