Chapter 241: Butterflies
In Xiao Ling'er's life, food is hard-won and is used to fill her stomach. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There is no such thing as a snack.
Because of her young age, the adults here will inevitably have some pity for her, but whose food is not hard to come by.
Daddy once told her that he would do his best to feed her, and Xiao Ling'er was different from the others, she had lived in this place since she was sensible, and Daddy's extra care made her not feel hungry.
But even so, she knows the preciousness of food.
She tilted her head sideways, and could always feel a scent floating on the side of her nose, and she swallowed her saliva and tried her best to endure it.
Jin Yun felt a little inexplicable, was she at a loss?
She didn't know how to coax a child, in the past, the little ones took the initiative to come to her side, just take out some snacks, and they would be able to make them happy.
Maybe it's because of the previous relationship, Jin Yun is really easy to be soft-hearted towards children.
What's more, the light that flashed in their eyes was pure.
"I'm not hungry either." Jin Yun thought for a while and said, "But if you don't eat it, it will be bad." ”
After speaking, when Xiao Lingzi turned her head back, she nodded vigorously.
Jin Yun couldn't have imagined that at this time, she would actually let a three-year-old girl go to eat snacks in a coaxing tone.
Xu San next to him saw it and finally put his mind at ease.
At that time, I didn't know how to let Uncle Jin's little sister come with me, you know, no matter how she said it, she was also a girl, and she was actually taken to the beggar's den by him, and it was not good to spread it.
I don't know if this is the case, the old woman left here with everyone far away, and didn't let people come over again, so I think I had to avoid suspicion first.
Xu San walked up to Uncle Huang, he put his hand on his forehead, feeling the temperature between his foreheads.
said: "Uncle Huang, typhoid fever can be big or small, I'll send you to the hospital later." ”
Uncle Huang shook his head and said, "What's the big deal, I'll just go for two days." You kid too, since you've gone out, what are you going to do when you come back? ”
Facing the sea on one side and facing the mountains on the other, this ruin is the closest thing to the mountain peak.
For many years, it was also a street where people came and went, and even many rich and noble families in the town looked at the mountain here, and the living environment was very quiet, and they lived here for a long time.
There are good things about the mountains, but there are also bad places.
It could even be said to be a disaster.
It's just that overnight, more than 500 people living in this palm-sized place all died tragically.
At that time, this matter spread to Shangjing, and even alarmed the Shengshang, who personally sent Xia Qincha to investigate the matter thoroughly, but after so many years, it has always been an unsolved case.
Although it is very old, the affairs here have not been forgotten, and many people even say that this ruin was cursed, and those who live here will be like that.
Since then, it has been completely deserted, except for those who are homeless, who cannot settle down here.
There are only a few dozen people here, and although they all make a living from begging, they are the lowest class.
There were more than 100 beggars in the town, and they were all driven out of it.
Not every person who steals and abducts and begs on the street has a poor background, and many of them are involved in a force, looking unclothed and disgraced, and their lives are much better than ordinary people.
It's just that those means, Uncle Huang and others don't look down on them.
That's why they were driven to this cursed place.
"Uncle Huang, you also believe those words, I have lived in this place for more than ten years, isn't it still good." Xu San never thought so, although this place was chaotic enough, at least it was a place where he could settle down and sleep peacefully.
"You." Uncle Huang stretched out his hand and pointed at him, angry.
Xu San put his hand into his clothes again to cover it, and he said, "Besides, I came this time and I also have ideas." As you know, I'm running to the docks with Uncle Jin now, and I can talk a few words when I get out of the way with some people on the docks, and if I can, I'd like to bring some people here. ”
Uncle Huang didn't care if he was cold or not, he sat up and said, "Really? ”
It's no wonder he's so excited, people here who don't want to find a stable job and live.
But they are now black households, not to mention, even ordinary people are frowning and disgusted when they see them, even if they are strong and strong, no one will be willing to hire them.
Not to mention, because of the long-term lack of food, everyone is yellow and thin, and they can't do heavy work even if they want to.
Xu San nodded, and he said: "I have agreed with the steward of the dock, let Uncle Li take the three of them over first, and the salary will be paid daily, but it is only half of that of ordinary people." ”
Speaking of this, he was actually a little ashamed.
The work on the dock is all manual work, not only tired but also less paid, not to mention only half of it now.
Uncle Huang patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's already very good to be able to hire us people, half is half, as long as you can take a step, it's worth the hard work." ”
After speaking, he coughed a few times, and when he calmed down, he struggled to stand up again, and he said: "I have to tell them the good news, and some people have to choose well, and they must not choose those lazy and uncertain boys, but they can't be a little sloppy." ”
Xu San hurriedly pressed him down, and he said: "Don't worry about this, when Uncle Li comes back, you can discuss and discuss, I have been staying at the dock now, and it is good to let someone inform me when the discussion is ready." ”
Uncle Huang wanted to say more, but Xu San said: "I won't stay here for long, now at this time, the vegetables in the backyard are ripe, load some for me and take them back." ”
How can they feed so many people in the ruins just by begging, not to mention that they are people who are excluded by the beggars in the town, and they can't go to many places, otherwise they will be found and will be beaten severely.
Therefore, in the corners of the ruins, they also secretly cultivated a few acres of wasteland, and the seeds they planted were brought down from the mountains.
After several years of careful service, these acres of wasteland are not as good as good land, but they are really discovered by others, and they have no way to rob them, just because they are all black households and are not qualified to own fields.
"Yes, yes, I just saw it yesterday, the radish is very watery, you dig some and bring it over." Uncle Huang said, with a smile on his wrinkled face, this year is a good year, Xu San has sent so many cloths, they will not have a hard time this winter.
Xu San didn't say anything more, took a small cart of turnips, and said goodbye to Jin Yun and left.
When Jin Yun left, she even agreed to the reluctant little Lingzi, waiting for a free day, bringing her little brothers to come to see her, and watching the beautiful butterflies with her. (To be continued.) )
