In ancient times, it was not rude to call a woman who looked to be more than thirty years old.

The thin woman turned around and smiled before she spoke; "Is there anything else going on with the little lady?" Before, she felt that this little lady spoke appropriately and had a good impression of her, so she said politely at this time.

Jiang Yi thought about it and asked; "I wonder if my aunt has a place to go?"

The thin woman sighed and said; "Not yet, just a few fellow villagers in a ruined temple outside the town, planning to recuperate for a few days, and then go to find the separated husband and young son."

Jiang Yidao; "It's messy everywhere now, and you don't have any clues, how can you find it? Besides, now that you don't have anything to eat, how can you recuperate? ”

The thin woman's smiling eyes hid some sadness and helplessness, and she did not answer.

"It's my brother who just fought with Ling Lang, he drives the ox cart back and forth between the villages and towns every day, helping others pull some things, if you want, let Ling Lang and my brother drive the ox cart together, and take care of each other, I give him ten copper every day, do you think it's good?"

Jiang Zhen drove an ox cart alone, and he could earn at least seventy or eighty copper a day, and sometimes more than 100 or even 200 copper, but he had said several times that a person was often too busy, and he had also met some green-skinned scoundrels in the village who bullied people.

If he could find someone to help his brother, he wouldn't have to work so hard.

At first, he thought about asking people from the village, planning to find a more pure boy to help his younger brother.

However, ten copper a day was too little, and she herself was a little embarrassed to invite people from the village.

And according to her observation, this Chen Zhi is still a bit principled, and he doesn't finish grabbing anything, and he still leaves half of it.

His mother also seemed to be a polite person, and would rather go hungry than return the good food.

It can be seen that their mother and son have a bottom line and should be trustworthy.

A job with more money and less money, only ten copper, ordinary people are definitely not willing to do it, but for people who are in a foreign land and penniless, it is great news, ten copper can buy two catties of rice, and the life of the mother and son is suddenly settled, at least there is no need to be hungry.

Therefore, whether it was Chen's mother or Chen Zhi, they all showed surprised expressions when they heard this.

"Really? But the dog doesn't ...... anything."

"You don't need to know anything, as long as you help carry some goods on and off the bus sometimes, and take care of each other when you meet someone."

Although I don't know if Chen Zhi bragged just now, he can beat two or three big men. But two and a half children are safer together than alone.

Chen's mother was about to agree, but Chen Zhi spoke; "It's okay to ask me to help catch the car, but my mother and I don't want to live in a broken temple anymore, if this sister is willing to provide a place to live and give some food, it's no problem."

Chen Zhi has his own thoughts when he says this, since he was separated from his father and younger brother, he secretly found that those fellow villagers were staring at his mother unkindly, so he had long wanted to leave the broken temple with his mother.

Mother Chen glanced at her son and said; "If the little lady is willing, the dog will help your brother drive the car, and I will go to your house to help with some housework, not asking for wages, just two meals a day and a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

Jiang Yi originally wanted to ask someone to help her younger brother, after all, she didn't think that this boy was like a bad person, and he could fight, but he didn't expect to ask one to get one away, and he didn't need to be paid, just two meals a day and accommodation, this kind of labor is simply a treasure.

Although she comes from a large civilized society, she feels a little guilty about hiring child labor, but in this evil old society, the environment is a normal phenomenon, not only does not care about you, but the child labor who was invited also thanked your family for 18 generations of ancestors.

Then she thought about something deeper.

If the foreigner Chen Zhi is stubborn, or has just met, he can't be convinced, and there are some dangerous factors for him to follow his younger brother. Then his mother stayed by his side, and he could be regarded as having a little bit of leverage.

In his own territory in his own village, as long as he is careful, it should be no problem to control Chen's mother.

Although it is said that the gentleman is not the villain, regardless of whether this idea is superfluous or not, but think about one more layer, at least one more layer of protection.

So Jiang Yi nodded directly; "Yes, you can try it first, and if you do it well, I will give you an extra ten copper a day."

The mother and son were overjoyed and hurriedly thanked them. Then he said that he would go back and bring a few torn clothes, and he would come over in a while.

Seeing the two mothers and children leave in a hurry, Jiang Yi returned to the courtyard and saw that the apprenticeship ceremony had already been carried out halfway.

Although the ceremony was not very complicated, there were still some procedures to go through, and after another quarter of an hour, Bu Ru officially became a disciple of Zhao Shuangren, the son of Zhao Fuzi.

Several people chatted happily together, and when they saw that it was almost dark, Bu Ru said goodbye to the master and left.

Out of the hospital, Jiang Yi told the two of them about the mother and son who had just taken in Chen Zhi's mother.

"Don't worry, if Chen Zhi and his mother have dinner at our house in the future, he won't dare to bully you, and he can be your right-hand man." Jiang Yi was afraid that his younger brother would not accept it, so he did his ideological work first.

Who knew that Jiang Zhen didn't object at all when he heard it, although he had just been beaten by others, but he thought that that guy was about to become his subordinate, and he would have someone to help him in the future, so he was quite willing to accept it.

As for Bu Ru, he has always devoted himself to studying, and he doesn't care much about family affairs, and he also believes in his wife's ability and shrewdness, and he supports any of her plans unconditionally.

So the matter was quickly approved by a unanimous vote of the family members.

The three of them walked to the mouth of the alley and waited for the arrival of Chen Zhi's mother and son.

They didn't seem to have much to pack, so after a while, the mother and son each took a bag and arrived happily.

Bringing back two strangers in the town aroused some curiosity among the villagers, and many people came to take a sneak peek under the pretext of buying things.

In ancient times, it was normal for wealthier families to hire slaves in their homes.

But after all, Bujia Village is a poor mountain village, and there are very few slaves in the family, and the Shen family, the eldest family in the village, has four or five slaves.

At the beginning, the Shen family was also a foreigner from the north, and the ancestor was a person from other places, and he served as a teacher in the local area, which was probably equivalent to a later director of education.

Later, Shen Jiaoyu was old, and he didn't return to his hometown for some reason, so he went to this poor mountain village to buy more than 100 acres of paddy fields and settle down.

Now Shen Jiaoyu has long been ancient, and the descendants left behind are not very luxuriant, and one generation is not as good as the next, and Chuanzhi is now the fourth generation, and he is still guarding dozens of acres of paddy fields to live.

As the only poetry and book heirloom in the village, although the Shen family has no reputation in the village, it is still the only big family in the village and the only family with slaves.

Although Bu Confucianism was a bit of a starter during this time, it was still far from being able to hire slaves.

Therefore, seeing that their family had hired slaves, there were some rumors in the village, which were ridiculed and ridiculed.

Even Bu Shuigui complained a little about her daughter-in-law's approach this time, blaming her for inviting two open mouths to come back for dinner.

As an assertive modern woman, Jiang Yi completely ignored the comments of these people.
