Chapter 25: The Man Who Suffers

Qi Lingcai didn't want to spend money to raise a few moths that didn't work.

As for Aunt Zhao and Peach Blossom, Qi Ling was very relieved, and said that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, and those who can have a good relationship with Aunt Zhao should also be diligent people.

But the other people in this courtyard, Qi Ling didn't dare to guarantee it.

Sure enough, hearing Qi Ling say this, there were a few people with a little dodgy eyes, they were all related to Gu Jinfeng's mother's side, and they could basically be regarded as Gu Jinfeng's elders.

When he heard the news that Qi Ling was going to recruit workers, he was cheeky and wanted to receive only one salary but not work.

What they thought was very beautiful, if Qi Ling didn't pay them at that time, or if they wanted to fire them, they would rely on Gu Jinfeng's elders to talk about things. But they didn't think about it at all, whether Gu Jinfeng would treat them as elders or not.

At this time, hearing Qi Ling's words, although they were a little weak-hearted, they didn't move at all, they just wanted to get by.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of these people, Qi Ling understood a little, and first excluded them in his heart.

In addition to these people, there were four other people in the courtyard, one of whom was a somewhat pretty-looking young woman, taking advantage of Qi Ling's inattention, glanced at her with extremely resentful eyes, and then lowered her head.

Qi Ling pondered in his heart for a while, and then spoke: "As for the third one, I want the conditions at home are not too good. ”

Hearing her say this, Peach Blossom and Aunt Zhao were a little puzzled, but they didn't keep quiet, after all, this was Qi Ling's own choice.

There were two more people left in the crowd, these two people were in very good conditions at home, they just wanted to have a chance, and they could make more money if they could be selected, but they really couldn't, and there was nothing big of a problem.

Those Gu Jinfeng's elders were all waiting for Qi Ling to say the fourth condition, but Qi Ling directly pointed to the two people in the crowd, "Just these two people, the others are embarrassed." ”

The two people Qi Ling was referring to, one was a middle-aged woman, she was wearing a washed white skirt, but her hair was combed and straight, neither humble nor arrogant, such a person knew at a glance that she was diligent.

The rest was a girl about the same age as Peach Blossom, she was half-bowing her head at this time, she couldn't see her expression, and she was also wearing an old dress, but her old clothes were embroidered with many flowers, but she was a skillful person.

It's just that what Qi Ling didn't know was that it was this girl who looked at her with resentment just now.

Seeing that Qi Ling chose such two people, several of Gu Jinfeng's distant elders had bad faces, but they didn't make any trouble, they just left in a hurry, preparing to go to Gu Jinfeng to complain.

Seeing that the last two people were finally chosen, Aunt Zhao and Peach Blossom breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought in my heart, Qi Ling still has a way, among so many people just now, she can easily choose two, which is really amazing.

The two people who were chosen came over to Qi Ling and thanked him, especially the woman, her eyes were red when she knew that she had been chosen, but the other girl was not so excited.

Qi Ling asked them to go home for lunch, and then come to Aunt Zhao's house in the afternoon to gather, and the two left.

As soon as they left, Aunt Zhao told Qi Ling about these two people, both of whom were miserable people.

Especially for the first woman, Aunt Zhao sighed with emotion: "The aunt of the Liu family, she is a dart master, last year she was out of the dart, was killed by the bandits, and now she has only one young son and mother-in-law in the family, the family relies on her to work outside to make money to support, her mother-in-law is not a good person, every day at home scolds her for killing her son, and if you can pull her in the future, you can pull her." ”

The second Aunt Zhao didn't know much about it, but Peach Blossom said to Qi Ling: "I know this girl, her name is Hexiang, her mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to her younger brother a few years ago, and her father later married a widow, and asked her to work at home every day, beating and scolding her at every turn, and she was also very pitiful." ”

After listening to the story of these two people, Qi Ling couldn't help but sigh, it is true that every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and there are too many poor people in the world.

After the three of them talked for a while, they began to discuss the matter of the workshop.

Qi Ling's plan was to work at Aunt Zhao's house before the house in Gu Jinfeng's backyard was built, because their yard was big enough and it was close to Gu Jinfeng's house, so they could say hello in time if there was anything.

When Aunt Zhao heard her plan, she agreed, Qi Ling found such a good job for herself and her daughter, but borrowing a yard was a big deal.

"Then I'll thank Aunt Zhao, but if I use your yard for a day, I'll give you rent for a day, it's not too much, twenty copper plates a day, if you don't agree, I won't need it." Qi Ling opened his mouth and directly blocked Aunt Zhao's refusal to ask for rent.

Aunt Zhao could only nod in agreement, but she felt more and more that Qi Ling was a good girl.

"Let's start this little workshop this afternoon, Peach Blossom, you take a few people to the hillside where we picked flowers last time to pick flowers, the more you pick, the better, do you remember what flowers we picked last time?"

Qi Ling was afraid that the peach blossoms would pick the wrong flowers and waste their efforts.

"Remember, Sister Ling, you picked wild jasmine and red and blue flowers last time, right?" Peach Blossom replied confidently.

Qi Ling nodded, and explained: "In addition to picking more wild jasmine and red and blue flowers, you can pick some wild thorn roses, you don't need too much, I will use it to make something new this time." ”

When she heard that Qi Ling was going to do something new, Peach Blossom couldn't help but have some expectations in her heart, and she didn't know what Sister Ling was going to do this time.

After assigning the task to Peach Blossom, Qi Ling began to give Aunt Zhao the task again: "Aunt Zhao, you bring a few needlework and sew a few large cloth bags at home, the bigger the better, remember to be finer in the needlework." ”

Aunt Zhao nodded in agreement.

Qi Ling felt that there was not much to use a bamboo basket to pack flowers, and it was a waste of time to go one trip at a time, so everyone would be given a cloth bag and tied to the body, which was light and could be loaded more.

After entrusting the two, Qi Ling left Aunt Zhao's house and walked towards Gu Jinfeng's house.

When I got home, I found that Gu Jinfeng had come back, and he was sitting at the table drinking water and eating snacks at this time, but he looked leisurely and elegant.

Qi Ling sat down next to him and found that Gu Jinfeng was eating the dim sum given by Shopkeeper Zhao last night, and this box of dim sum was full of tricks that she had never eaten.

Qi Ling twisted a piece casually, and it was really more delicious than the one Gu Jinfeng brought back last time, and he felt that the shopkeeper Zhao was very good at being a person.

After eating a piece, Qi Ling patted the dim sum residue on his hand and asked Gu Jinfeng, "Have you found someone to build a house?" ”

Gu Jinfeng didn't make a sound, just nodded.
