Chapter 4 Recruitment

Zhang Aming seemed to be confused by Li Chunhai's words, and his expression was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile: "Chunhai, where did you think of it, I promised Sanniang to find you a big family to work in, and this road is in front of the big family in the city." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoI also have some friends working in it, just to help you introduce. ”

Li Chunhai saw that Zhang Aming's eyes kept turning, and he knew that few of his words were true. So she said, "I have changed my mind now, and I don't want to be a maid anymore." I think there are quite a few shops here, and it's not bad if you don't have an apprentice. ”

"How can there be any reason for a girl's family to be an apprentice." Zhang Aming hurriedly said, "Even if you go with me, I will definitely find you a rich family to be a maid, which is much better than being an apprentice." ”

"The maid is lowly, and I have to be looked down upon by the master, I don't want to be it. Besides, I'm ingenious, and I'm proficient in all kinds of needlework, so being an apprentice is more than enough! Li Chunhai is a modern intellectual woman, and where does she know how to do needlework, the reason why she said this is just to see Zhang Aming's reaction further.

Seeing that Li Chunhai didn't want to go with him, Zhang Aming finally revealed his true form, his face became hideous, and he yelled at Li Chunhai: "Chunhai, you little cheap hoof, do you want to follow me!" ”

"Don't go!" Li Chunhai took a few steps back and said, "Looking at your wicked expression, you must be thinking of selling me to the kiln." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Aming continued to persecute and said: "I just sold you into the kiln, so what!" With your appearance, if you go to the kiln, you must have good food and shelter and someone to serve you, which is much better than you are sleeping in the open and living on the streets, even better than being a maid. ”

"Hmph, I won't practice myself for the sake of good food and shelter." As a modern person, Li Chunhai is very reluctant to the job, so she held her head high and said loudly, "I'd rather starve to death than sell my body!" ”

"Humph!" Zhang Aming bared his teeth, "Whether you want to go or not, I can't help you now!" After saying that, he rushed towards Li Chunhai, trying to catch her.

Fortunately, Li Chunhai was prepared and found a way out. And before, she took a few steps back just so as not to be caught by Zhang Aming in the first place. Now that Zhang Aming was rushing in, she turned around and ran into an alley. The alley was now full of ragged victims, and Li Chunhai took advantage of his thin stature to get into the crowd. And that Zhang Ming was tall, so he was blocked out by the crowd, and when he finally squeezed out of the crowd to the other side, Li Chunhai was no longer visible.

"The damn little, he let him run!" Zhang Aming looked around for a long time, but he didn't find Li Chunhai, and couldn't help but spit on the ground angrily, "This Xiangyang City is so big, I don't know where she will run?" , if you catch her again, you have to beat her half to death! ”

He stood for a while, but finally couldn't find anyone, so he had to make his way around the crowd and leave the place.

"He's finally gone!" Li Chunhai, who was hiding in the crowd, also breathed a sigh of relief when he watched Zhang Aming leave. She knew her body well, and it was not easy to escape from Zhang Aming's hands, so she relied on her thin body and hid among this group of victims. These victims can't even take care of themselves, and where do they care about Li Chunhai, who has an extra boy's outfit.

"It's a pity that Sanniang is such a good person, he has such a husband, and I don't know if this Zhang Amin will treat Sanniang well in the future." Li Chunhai couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this. At this time, a door behind her suddenly opened, only to see a forty-year-old, wearing brocade clothes, with three or two linen servants walked out, and read aloud to a dry of victims: "I am the Su family in charge of Li Heng, my lord Su Daguan heard that the floods in Jin and Jun are flooding in the two states, and the victims of the two states are more than in Xiangyang City, and it is not easy to feel the disaster victims. ”

"Including food and lodging, and five hundred copper coins!" After Li Duguan finished speaking, he immediately set off an uproar among the victims. Although Li Chunhai didn't know how much the five hundred copper coins were worth, seeing the expressions of these victims, he thought that it should be a lot. She looked at herself in men's clothes again, and wanted to try her luck to see if she could be recruited by this family.

Seeing that this group of victims had a strong reaction, Li Duguan also smiled slightly, and then asked the servants to bring tables, chairs, and lists and place them in the courtyard, and then let the victims line up in a long line and enter the courtyard one by one for review. Since the family wanted male long-term workers, the women were directly excluded from the team. And although Li Chunhai is short, he is indeed dressed in a man's outfit, and there is a headscarf covering his hair, if you don't look closely at his face, he looks like a riverside boy.

The victims lined up and slowly advanced, and those qualified men were all brought directly into the compound, but from time to time, there were old and frail or half-grown children with unwilling faces, and Li Chunhai was also nervous. Because there were too many of these victims, it took almost an hour before it was Li Chunhai's turn to walk in.

As soon as Li Chunhai entered the compound, he didn't care about observing the situation in the courtyard, so he was taken to the middle position by the servants, and the person who reviewed it was Li Heng and Li Duguan, who spoke before.

This Li Duguan reviewed the people for an hour, and he was already a little impatient, only to see an inconspicuous half-grown child come in, so he didn't look closely, so he directly shook the list and said, "The body is too thin, no!" ”

"Wait a minute!" Li Chunhai seemed to see something, and hurriedly shouted in a suppressed voice.

"What's wrong?" When Li Duguan heard the shout, he took a closer look at Li Chunhai, and saw that although the child had a beautiful face, his body was too thin, so he said: "You can't do our work here, so you should leave quickly!" ”

"I'm not talking about work!" Li Chunhai stretched out his finger and pointed to the directory in Li Duguan's hand, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the name of the directory in your hand seems to be one more horizontal!" ”

"One more horizon?" That Li Duguan flipped through the list, and saw that there was indeed an extra horizontal in the middle of the mouth under the word "name". Although he didn't write the word list, the thin boy on the other side saw this mistake at a glance, and immediately made him look up to Li Chunhai.

"Do you know words?" Li Duguan asked.

"I know, I used to study at home for a few years." Li Chunhai is telling the truth, but she has shortened the time for studying.

"What's your name?" Li Duguan continued to ask.

"I have the same surname as you, and my surname is Li, and my name is Chunhai," Li Chunhai replied with a smile.

When Li Duguan heard that the other party had the same surname as himself, he immediately paid more attention to this child, so he continued to ask, "How old are you this year?" What books have you read? ”

Li Chunhai actually didn't know how big her body was, but in order to get this job, she decided to apply for a bigger job, "I'm thirteen years old this year, but I'm malnourished and thin." "As for what books he has read, Li Chunhai doesn't dare to say that he has attended six years of primary school, six years of middle school and three years of college, so he has to try to recall the books that the ancients should have read before he said;" I have read the Four Books, the Five Classics, and some historical classics. ”

Seeing that Li Chunhai had a good face and a good speech, and had read so many books, Li Duguan thought that this child's previous family background should be very good, and if it wasn't for the flood, he wouldn't have come here to apply for a long-term job.

He also thought that the two sons of his master, Su Daguan, were a companion student, and this Li Chunhai was the same age, if he recommended him to his master, it would be regarded as his own credit.

So, Li Duguan smiled at Li Chunhai and said: "This long-term work seems to be heavier for you, I still have an easy job here, I don't know if you are willing to do it?" ”

"Easy work?" Li Chunhai was taken aback, thinking to himself if the other party should see through his daughter's body and want to let himself be a maid, right? But at this time, the situation was pressing, and Li Chunhai felt that there was no problem even if it was a maid. So she nodded to Li Duguan and said: "Thank you for everything, no matter what work is arranged, as long as you can support yourself, Chunhai is willing to do it!" ”

"That's good." When Li Duguan heard Li Chunhai's affirmative answer, his mouth opened even more, "This job is very simple, that is, to be a companion to the two young masters of my family." ”

"Companion reading boys?" When Li Chunhai heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.
