24. Woe

Seeing Rona ask like this, Jiang Wan was a little puzzled if he had encountered something during the wandering journey, but she didn't want to spy on his **, and she didn't ask, so she just said solemnly: "Please rest assured about this, it won't." โ€

Hearing this, Rona breathed a long sigh of relief, seemed to be relieved, and nodded vigorously: "Then please try to help me arrange it!" โ€

Jiang Wan nodded, silently thinking about what he could do. As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, she can help him once but she can't help him often, so it is best to find him a job. In this day and age, it is much easier for men to find a job than for women, and they can do a lot of things with all their strength.

Rona is a foreigner, his appearance is quite conspicuous, and he doesn't understand the language, so many places won't accept him, especially if he wants to communicate with people, so she asked like that just now, since his acceptance is high, the range of choices is naturally wide. All kinds of physical labor that does not require communication with people, you can find a way to let him try, as long as the boss is willing to give him a chance, Rona himself will be more angry. Thinking that he has been wandering as a slave for so many years, he should no longer be like a young master of the manor in the past, and his body is on the strong side, and he should be able to do heavy work.

At this time, Jiang Gu, who was branched by Jiang Wan, came back, this time he bought back vegetable cakes and hawthorn strips, and it just so happened that Jiang Wan should have finished talking to Ronna, so he did not branch Jiang Gu again, but divided the vegetable cakes and hawthorn strips a little to Ronna, Rona took it gratefully, and said to Jiang Wan in Chinese: "Promise by body!" โ€

Jiang Gu was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Sister, he, what does he mean!" โ€

Jiang Wan said, "...... I guess it means to thank us. โ€

"But what he's saying is a personal promise!" Jiang Gu's eyes widened.

Jiang Wan was silent, looked at Rona, made a thank you mouth shape in English, and said thank you again in Chinese.

After so many attempts, Jiang Wan successfully taught Rona how to say thank you in Chinese without Jiang Gu knowing.

Rona finally realized that he had misused the words, and seemed to be a little confused, and said in a loud voice: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" โ€

Jiang Wan hurriedly raised her hand to stop him.

Seeing this, Jiang Gu relieved his heart, and his face became calm.

Jiang Wan asked Jiang Gu, "Do you know where there is a place near here where you can work?" โ€

Jiang Gu was puzzled: "Where to work?" โ€

Jiang Wan said: "As the saying goes, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, I think we should find a living job for him, so that he can support himself." โ€

Jiang Gu glanced at Rona with a complicated face, the latter laughed happily when he saw him coming, and waved his hand to greet him, he hurriedly withdrew his gaze, and looked at Jiang Wan again: "Sister, do we really want to help him?" โ€

Jiang Wan said with a straight face: "Saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, if we don't help him, do you believe it or not, he will starve to death in a few days?" โ€

Jiang Gu nodded with a bitter face: "I believe ......"

Jiang Wan said: "Isn't that enough?" We're just helping him find a job, and it's up to him to do it. โ€

For his sister, although Jiang Gu was helpless, he couldn't help her at this time, so after thinking for a while, Jiang โ–กโ–ก: "Sister, why don't we take him to Xinghua Street to have a look?" There are many restaurants there, and there should be many recruits, let's ask more, maybe there are stores willing to ask him. โ€

Jiang Wan smiled: "It's okay." โ€

If you are from the Great Song Dynasty, it is not difficult to find a job, but Rona is a foreigner after all, and his appearance is quite conspicuous, and many people on the street are a little afraid of him when they pass by, and they are afraid that the shopkeeper of the restaurant will feel taboo when he sees him and dare not recruit him. But there is nothing difficult in the world, I am afraid that there are people who have a heart, no matter what, Jiang Wan also wants to give it a try. It's a pity that her own family conditions don't allow it, if her family is a rich family, where is the need to look around like this? Just take people back and be a little guy.

Take a closer look at Ronna's eyebrows, it is quite handsome and delicate, although he is now in rags, but if he changes to silk and satin, he is also a handsome prince in Jiang Wan's eyes, and it is extremely eye-catching to put it next to him.

Before the three of them went to Xinghua Street, Jiang Wan took out the headscarf that had been prepared a long time ago and asked Rona to wrap it.

Rhina's blonde hair was too eye-catching, and Jiang Wan felt that walking on the street with him made even herself high-profile, which made her very insecure, so she thought about it before she came out this morning, brought an extra turban, and at least let Rona cover it up when walking on the street.

Rona was very obedient, and smiled at Jiang Wan after wrapping the headscarf around his head, as if he thought this was the custom here.

Jiang Wan held back a smile and looked at his appearance of being neither male nor female, Jiang Gu was much more direct, and burst out laughing. Jiang Wan hurriedly glared at him and asked him to restrain himself, Jiang Gu stuck out his tongue, and finally stopped laughing.

Rona looked at the two sisters and brothers with a blank face, Jiang Wan was a little weak-hearted, and quickly pulled Jiang Gu to turn around and leave, and waved his hand to Rona to follow.

The three of them came to Xinghua Street in disguise, Rona was tall and strong, and he had a headscarf on his head just to hide his blonde hair, but in the end it still attracted some curious eyes, but fortunately, the other party just looked away with a curious glance, and Jiang Wan didn't care about that. Now she has a headscarf wrapped around her head, which gives her a sense of security.

The three of them chose a restaurant first, and Jiang Gu, a man from the Great Song Dynasty, went to find the shopkeeper first, and Jiang Wan pointed him out a few words before entering.

I met the shopkeeper, Jiang Gu. Said: "Shopkeeper, are you recruiting guys here?" โ€

The shopkeeper lifted his eyelids from the abacus beads, glanced at Jiang Gu, and said lazily: "The guy is going to recruit, but I don't want a half-sized boy who has not grown all his hair." โ€

Jiang Gu was a little unhappy that the other party looked down on him, but when he thought of the business, he endured his displeasure and said: "The shopkeeper, it's not that I'm looking for something to do, it's someone else." โ€

The shopkeeper said, "Who?" Let him ask himself, what does it mean to ask you kid? Whoever comes to be a buddy, you have to let me see each other for myself! โ€

Jiang Gu said: "It's an exotic. โ€

"Outlander?" The shopkeeper was a little surprised, but also a little interested, "What kind of exotic person is it?" โ€

Jiang Gu saw that he was interested, so he turned around and beckoned to Jiang Wan, and Jiang Wan walked in with Rona.

At Jiang Wan's signal, Rona lifted his turban slightly, let the shopkeeper take a look, the shopkeeper was startled when he saw his blonde hair and blue eyes, and almost called out the word monster while holding his chest, but fortunately he stopped in time, waved his hand again and again: "In this way, our restaurant is not recruited, take him away!" โ€

Jiang Wan stepped forward at this time and said: "Shopkeeper, we also know that his appearance is too different, but you don't need to put him in front of him to run the hall, you see that he has the strength to do rough work, you can put him in the backyard, carry rice and flour, or wash dishes and vegetables, he can do it, and as long as he has a place to live, it is enough to have food, and the salary you give him only needs half of what you give to others now." โ€

Jiang Wan said as she motioned for Rona to roll up his sleeves and show the shopkeeper the muscles in his arms. Because she knew that it would be difficult for Rona to sell as a foreigner, she deliberately reduced his salary by half to increase his competitiveness.

The shopkeeper seemed to be a little moved when he heard this, looked at Rona in surprise, and asked Jiang Wan: "Then what we say here, can he understand?" โ€

Jiang Wan said sincerely: "He doesn't understand what we say here, but you don't have to talk too much to him here, right?" Let him do something, just make a gesture, he just doesn't understand what we say here, but he's not stupid. โ€

The shopkeeper frowned, looked Ron up and down with a look at the goods, and shook his head with an embarrassed face for a long time: "Forget it, there are enough guys in our restaurant, not bad for him, he can't even understand the words, maybe something will happen!" โ€

Jiang Wan refused to give up and persuaded for a while, and even the shopkeeper who lowered the salary to a quarter of other people's did not let go, Jiang Wan had no choice but to leave the restaurant with Rona.

Back on the street, Jiang Gu said dejectedly: "Sister, can we really help him find a job?" After all, he is a foreigner, and he still looks like this, and everyone here is afraid of him, how can he find a job. โ€

Jiang Wan said: "It's just a matter of finding one, why did you give up so quickly?" It's not okay to be so light. โ€

Jiang Gu looked guilty: "Sister, I was wrong, then let's go find the next one!" I think it will work out this time! โ€

Jiang Wan smiled: "Then let's go!" โ€

Rona on the side has always had a blank expression, and when he saw the two sisters and brothers signaling him to follow, he hurriedly chased after him, and understood that the first one had failed.

Then came the second and third...... Some restaurants don't recruit people, although some restaurants recruit people, but they are also the same as the first one, as soon as they saw Ronna's appearance, they waved their hands again and again, and even Jiang Wan was a little disheartened later, but looking at Rona on the side, it seems that he has always been very energetic and interested, and he has not been hit at all.

Seeing this, Jiang Wan also cheered up and continued to look for the next family, she didn't believe it, Changping County is so big, and she can't find a place that dares to accept Ronna. It's a big deal to just ask for food and shelter and not to be paid, so I don't believe that the shopkeeper is not moved.

At this time, it was lunchtime, and the three of them were standing at the door of a restaurant with a baked cake.

Jiang โ–กโ–ก: "Sister, this is already the last restaurant on Xinghua Street." His face was full of exhaustion.

Jiang Wan is no better, she has been rejected one after another, and she is now physically and mentally exhausted.

And Rona on the side, who didn't seem to be tired at all, was eating the baked cake with wide eyes and a happy face.

The three of them quickly finished the baked cakes in their hands, cheered up and walked to the restaurant. Unfortunately, as soon as the three of them walked to the door of the restaurant, a group of people walked out with a big grin, Jiang Wan couldn't dodge and was knocked aside.

The man in the group said angrily, "What are you?" How dare you be rude to my young master! โ€

Jiang Wan said something bad in her heart, and just wanted to quickly apologize and retreat to the side, she saw a man in a gorgeous costume stop the little guy, paced over, and grinned at Jiang Wan: "What a beauty!" I didn't expect such a beautiful woman to be in such a rural place, it's really wonderful! Beauty, dare to ask what your name is? โ€

Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, and when she swept her eyes, she found that her headscarf had fallen to the ground. It turned out that when she was bumped just now, Baotou's headscarf also fell off, and her appearance was naturally exposed to the eyes of the man in gorgeous clothes.

When Jiang Wan saw this man's appearance clearly, her pupils shrank suddenly.

She had never seen this man, but she recognized him - he was the man in gorgeous clothes who appeared in her golden finger picture and ruined Xie Chengchou's family! His accent doesn't sound local, judging from the golden finger picture, I am afraid that he is the son of a high-ranking official at the foot of the capital, and this is why he is so arrogant in the Changping realm. You must know that on weekdays, there are very few cases of rich and young people molesting women on the street in Changping County, Xie Zhixian has always been disgusted with bullying men and women, although his son Su Ri is nonsense, but he has never done anything to rob people's women.

Before Jiang Wan could come up with a countermeasure, Jiang Gu, who couldn't see his sister suffering, stepped forward and stopped between Jiang Wan and the man in gorgeous clothes, glared angrily and said, "You disciple, get out of the way!" โ€

Jiang Wan was so frightened that she hurriedly reached out to pull him, and the little servant under the man in the fancy costume saw that someone dared to be rude to his young master, and shouted: "Blind your dog eyes, you dare to speak to our young master like this, if you don't teach you a lesson, you don't know that the sky is high!" โ€

The little guy said and moved his hand, to pull Jiang Gu aside, Jiang Gu has a lot of strength, at this time, in order to protect his sister, he is not small, and he fights back with the little guy.

Jiang Wan on the side looked frightened, but the man in gorgeous clothes took the opportunity to walk up to Jiang Wan, looked at her with a smile and said, "Beauty, if you are willing to accompany Young Master Ben, Young Master Ben will let your younger brother go, otherwise...... Hehe. โ€

Jiang Wan saw that Jiang Gu was surrounded by several people, and her heart tightened for a while, wishing that she could turn into a superman and defeat all these people. It wasn't until this moment that she really realized that she was in such an era where there was nowhere to be reasonable, the powerful could bully the weak, and you didn't dare to resist, because everyone knows the consequences of resistance. The naked hung there.

Jiang Wan gritted her teeth and tried to calm herself down. She is not from the county seat, and the other party doesn't know who her surname is, as long as she can escape...... It's possible that he won't find them!

Jiang Wan was thinking quickly about how to get out, when she saw Rona suddenly shout and rush up, knocking over a small guy who wanted to grab Jiang Gu with a fist. Rona is strong, his fists are extremely powerful, and the little guy can't get up after being knocked to the ground! And Rona didn't stop there, he knocked down all the rest of the little guys who rushed up with three strokes and five divided by two, and then clenched his fists and rushed towards the man in fancy clothes, so frightened that the latter grabbed his head and fled.

Jiang Wan was stunned, she thought that Rona would be stronger, but she didn't expect him to be so able to fight! After all, he was chased and beaten by others yesterday, and he didn't see him fight back!

Jiang Gu was just caught by those little guys, and he was not injured, and as soon as he got out, he ran to Jiang Wan's side and said urgently: "Sister, are you okay?" Did the disciple hurt you? โ€

"I'm fine!" Jiang Wan took a deep breath to calm herself, and when she swept her eyes, she saw that the movement on their side had attracted the attention of many people.

At the same time, when the fleeing man in a fancy costume saw that Rona did not chase after him and that he had escaped far enough, he stopped and shouted angrily to this side: "You wait for Young Master Ben!" If this revenge is not avenged, this young master swears not to be a man! โ€

Jiang Wan ignored the man, called Jiang Gu and Ronna, picked up her headscarf and turned around and fled.

The man chased after a few steps and shouted, "Stop, don't run!" He turned his head and looked around, jumped to his feet and said, "What do you Changping people do to eat?" Haven't you seen anyone commit murder in the street? Why don't you catch them yet?! โ€

Everyone on the street looked at each other, and finally looked away, as if they didn't hear anything. Everyone in Changping County abides by the law, and it has not happened for a long time that such a blatant thing is molesting women on the street, it can be seen that the other party is dressed in gorgeous clothes, even if they want to manage it, they don't have the guts to manage it, so when the man in the fancy dress is beaten down, they don't clap their hands and applaud It is already very restrained, who will help him?

The man in the fancy costume jumped to his feet for a while, shouted for a long time and no one paid attention to him, and then looked in the direction where the three of them fled, there was no one for a long time, and he was so angry that he was angry, and walked back to the few little guys who had finally gotten up, and one of them kicked him, and said angrily: "You waste! What is the use of this young master raising you? Rubbish! โ€

Jiang Wan and the three of them escaped two streets, and when they saw that no one was chasing after them, they held on to the wall and stopped, panting for breath.

Jiang Wan looked at Rona who was still calm and relaxed, and said gratefully: "Ronna, thank you!" โ€

The words were simple, and Rona understood them at once, and immediately grinned and stammered, "They, bad guys!" It's time to fight! โ€

Jiang Wan saw that Jiang Gu was panting from exhaustion, and didn't pay attention to them, so she approached Rona and whispered, "Then why were you chased and beaten yesterday?" โ€

Rona scratched his head and said abruptly: "I robbed his hamburger yesterday, it was me who was wrong, how could I hit him?" โ€

Jiang Wan felt a little emotion in her heart, this Rona has a good heart, but unfortunately it is also ill-fated, he has fallen into this situation, he can't go back to his home, and it is not easy to even want to eat.

After experiencing the man in the fancy clothes, Jiang Wan was a little apprehensive about continuing to stay in the county. But she couldn't leave Ron behind until she helped him find a job.

She suddenly remembered something, looked closely at Ronna's headscarf, and was slightly relieved to see that his headscarf was still well wrapped. If the other party sees that he is a foreigner with blonde hair and blue eyes, such a conspicuous feature, it will be easy for the other party to find him. But she can't take Rona back to the village, bring a big man back, her already not very good reputation will definitely be worse, and her father and mother will not agree to take in such a "barbarian" of unknown origin. And if even the people in the county can't accept Rona as a foreigner, then the more isolated villages will definitely treat him as a monster. He should and can only stay in the county seat.

"Let's change places and continue to help Rona find work." Jiang Wan patted Jiang Gu on the shoulder.

Jiang Gu wanted to speak and stopped, his expression was full of fear.

Jiang Wan said: "Let's go to a farther place to find it, it's okay, don't worry." โ€

Jiang Gu looked at Jiang Wan for a long time, then looked at Rona with a sunny smile on his face, and nodded helplessly.

That being said, Jiang Wan took Rona to a street market with a mixture of dragons and snakes near the East City Gate this time to find some small restaurants. She originally thought that the shopkeeper of the big restaurant was well-informed and should be more accepting of foreigners, but she didn't expect to hit a wall, so she had no choice but to try it again in the small restaurant.

In order to increase the success rate, Jiang Wan lowered Ronna's worth directly to the bottom - as long as she gave ten cents for a month. This is equivalent to free labor. She thought that she might have to ask a few more, but what she didn't expect was that she only asked two, and the second one immediately agreed - the first one didn't agree because he had few guys in the store, and they were all relatives, and none of them could be fired.

Jiang Wan didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and she was a little incredulous for a while, she really ran into a wall too many times before, and this time she succeeded so quickly that people thought it was a dream. However, she thinks that it should be the low salary that is equivalent to no that plays a decisive role, and she can save money if she can save money.

Jiang Wan sent Jiang Gu to talk about the situation, and she herself pulled Rona aside and carefully advised: "From today on, you will work here." There is food and shelter, and there is still some salary every month, but it is very little, I hope you don't mind too much. โ€

Rona said gratefully: "I just want to survive now, it doesn't matter if I am paid or not, thank you so much!" โ€

Jiang Wan smiled and said, "If I have time in the future, I will come back to see how you are doing." But if someone asks about me, you say you don't know me at all. โ€

Rona was a little puzzled at first as to why she made this request, but thinking of the conflict just now, he understood, patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry! I'm not going to sue anyone about you and your little brother! You are my life-saving angel, and I will never betray you! โ€

"Thank you." At this moment, Jiang Wan was not in the mood to correct his words, and when she turned her head and saw Jiang Gu coming over, she changed to Chinese and said to Ronna, "Goodbye." โ€

Rhona also stumbled back, "Goodbye! โ€

After handing over Rona to the shopkeeper and saying goodbye to him, Jiang Wan took Jiang Gu out of the city. After leaving the county gate for a while, she looked back at the county seat and let out a long breath.

Although she comforted Jiang Gu and said that it was okay, in fact she had been scared. However, considering that this time Rona only hit the man in fancy clothes, not himself, his anger should be far less than what she saw when he was beaten by Xie Chengchou, so she would have a little luck. It's just that she has already decided, and after that, she wants to avoid the limelight, and the county seat should not come again, including Jiang Gu. She didn't believe it, Changping County is so big, there are no photos on the household registration information in this era, and there is no monitoring on the street, how can that man find a little person like her nested in the mountains.

On the way, Jiang Wan communicated with Jiang Gu and asked him to keep what happened in the county seat secret today. Her father and mother are just ordinary farmers, there is nothing they can do when they encounter this kind of thing, and it is easy to be scared all day long, so it is better to hide it from them.

Jiang Gu agreed after listening to Jiang Wan's analysis, and promised her not to go to the county seat during this time.

The sister and brother returned to the village under the mountain worriedly, but what they didn't expect was that when they passed by Pei You's house, Pei You suddenly walked out of the courtyard and whispered to Jiang Wan: "Miss Jiang, I'm ...... I have something to say to you, I wonder if I can take a step to speak? โ€
