35 Gifts

Liv Phil was in her early forties, with curly brown hair that was somewhat fluffy and fell over her shoulders.

Her appearance is ordinary, there are a lot of crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, even if she doesn't smile, she crawls at the corners of her eyes, her skin is a little loose, and her expression changes slightly, and many wrinkles appear on her face.

She has a pair of blue eyes, and whenever she smiles, her eyes ripple with tenderness.

Being watched by this gaze, the boy always thinks of his mother, and when he thinks about it, his mother will be like this when she looks at him and smiles, right?

At this moment, Liv was looking at Ryan with a smile.

"Little Ryan, what's wrong?"

Ryan's gaze skimmed over her shoulder and landed on the small, cluttered room, where one-year-old Fergie had slept soundly and hadn't woken up yet.

"Uncle Phil went to work?"

Ryan asked softly, tucking his hand into his trouser pocket.

"yes, I went out before dawn. ”

Liv raised her hand to arrange her hair, pressing her fluffy curls down, and she looked at Ryan with a hint of surprise on her face.

"Little Ryan, shouldn't you go to work at this time?"

Ryan pursed his lips.

"Aunt Liv, I left the trading company and changed jobs......"

With that, he pulled his wallet out of his trouser pocket, took out a business card, and handed it to Liv.

His name was printed on the business card, and below it were the words Albert Cleaning Company, and in addition to that, there was a line of smaller black letters, which was the neighborhood and house number where the cleaning company was located.

"From now on, I'll be working here. ”

"Cleaning company?"

Liv took the business card and looked away from it, frowning.

"Is it a cleaning company that cleans the neighborhood and also receives door-to-door service?"

In Reims City, the upper class has its own servants, especially those noble families, and their domestic servants have been passed down from generation to generation like the main family, and the distant ancestors are the servants of this family, and most of the descendants are like this.

Of course, in the past hundred years, society has undergone earth-shaking changes, and various new industries have emerged one after another, in addition to the powerful old money families, that is, those who claim to have blue blood, there are also some new rich people.

These rich people do not have a long history, and some of them are even self-made, they are the authentic rich generation, and before they started, they were just the lowest civilians, but they were lucky enough and had the ability to seize the opportunity to come out. These people did not have servants to serve from generation to generation, and then, when they became rich, they needed to be served, and so many service companies appeared.

These service companies trained many housekeepers and servants, and after they were successfully trained, they were sent to the homes of the wealthy.

Sometimes, a company only serves a wealthy person, and even that service company is funded by a wealthy person, and for this purpose, an English butler is specially invited from the British Commonwealth on the other side of the Channel to take charge of the entire training business.

In addition to these super-rich, many middle classes have also been created.

These middle-class people have money, but they don't have the money to hire special servants to serve them, so there are many housekeeping companies, and cleaning companies are also a type of housekeeping company.

Before Liv gave birth to a daughter, she worked in a housekeeping company and was a dedicated housewife.

At that time, she would come to her home at the agreed time with her employer to clean and clean the room, usually once a week, and if the employer asked her to cook if he had other requirements, such as cooking, she would do it.

The work was very tedious, very hard, but not much, a month of busy living, almost no days off, and the remuneration received was only about ten louis, except for the commission of the housekeeping company.

Liv thought Ryan was working for such a company, so there was a hint of reproach in her eyes.

Like her husband Fill, Liv likes this shy teenager who doesn't talk much.

After all, few teenagers are as disciplined and motivated as Ryan, who has his own goals, has the idea of changing his fate, and is working hard to achieve it, walking step by step according to the plan.

Her two children, the eldest one, not to mention, had a stiff head like a piece of wood, but fortunately, he inherited his father's talent, and had the strength to work on the docks to support himself, and under her urging, he would also hand over some money every month to save, and after his early twenties, he might be able to find a female worker and start a family.

For her second son, Liv has expectations.

The second son has been in primary school for a few years, knows a lot of words, and his brain is also fast and smart.

So, they paid him to send him to a trading company as an apprentice, so that he could study like Ryan and work harder, but unfortunately, this guy was more playful, and although he was obedient, he couldn't talk about how hard he worked.

After all, it's only thirteen years old, and it's still the age when you want to play!

Because she wants her children to be like Ryan, Liv is a little disappointed at this time.

After all, in her opinion, Ryan should have a future in the trading company, and if he changes to this bullshit cleaning company and does some work to wait for people, there is no future to speak of.

Ryan didn't avoid Liv's gaze, he shook his head.

"Aunt Liv, this is the government's cleaning company......"

After a moment's hesitation, Ryan didn't know how to describe his work, and after a while, he said.

"This job serves the government, I am an administrative staff, and now, I am probably a seventh-level civil servant outside the establishment, because I am still interning, and I can only be officially promoted after becoming a regular!"

"Oh!"

Liv couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

Then she covered her mouth and laughed.

"Little Ryan, that's amazing!"

She gave a thumbs up and shook it in front of Ryan.

"I knew that you would have a prosperous day, and I would continue to work hard and hope that one day Aunt Liv will see you behind her desk at the municipal hall. ”

Ryan lowered his head and smiled shyly.

"Aunt Liv, the cleaning company has a free dormitory, so, I'm moving out. ”

"Really?"

Liv's eyes darkened, and then she grinned again.

"It's good to move away, it's good to be free! The house here is expensive, and the environment is so bad, if there is a way, Aunt Liv also wants to leave here with the children, but unfortunately, your Uncle Phil is useless!"

Ryan didn't say much, and he changed the subject.

"Auntie, I have paid three months' rent for this apartment I rented, and there is still a month and a half to expire, and during this time, Anthony can live in it...... Also, there are a lot of things I can't take, so I'll leave them for you!"

As the words fell, he raised his hand and interrupted Liv's words, preventing her from saying no.

"I have some books left in the house, so that if Anthony has to go to night school, I won't have to spend extra money to buy books......"

Then he spread his hands and smiled.

"Anyway, I don't need it!"

At this moment, the cry of a baby is heard in the house, and Liv's little daughter wakes up.

"Auntie, you go take care of Phigi first...... The business card has the address on it, and if you have something, you must come to me!"

With that as he said that, Ryan turned and left.
