Ji Yu made a special trip to Yeyang for acceptance this time.

Wang Daguan completed it two days earlier, and today is the day when Mu Laoqi handed over his work.

Ji Yu carefully inspected the corners and corners to confirm that there was no problem, so she and they carried the container shelves to the newly renovated store in front, and after placing them one by one, they settled their wages in full.

Mu Laoqi took the red envelope given by Ji Yu, and was very grateful and shook it several times.

Back in the backyard, Mu Laoqi gave him Xiaozhou's share of the salary, and finally stuffed him with the red envelope.

"The owner gives me a lot of wages, and I don't spend much on one person, you take this, it's cold, go get a thick coat to wear."

On such a cold day, Xiaozhou was still wearing a torn jacket with several patches, a thin layer, and it didn't fit, so I don't know where I picked it up.

Xiaozhou waved his hand, he only wanted his share, not his, and he refused to ask for it.

"You kid......"

Mu Laoqi had no choice but to give up.

"And where are you going after that?"

After doing it here, I don't know when the next job will be, Mu Laoqi can help him for a while, and it is impossible to take him all the time.

Xiaozhou shook his head, "I don't know yet, I'll look for ...... again"

Mu Laoqi sighed, "Let's see if we can find a lighter one, don't go to the dock again......"

Xiaozhou didn't speak, and began to pack up the things in the courtyard with his head down.

He sorted out all those scraps and stuff into a pile. There were also a few unused pieces of wood, which were also carried to the corners.

When carrying the last piece of wood, he accidentally cut the jacket, and with a stabbing sound, a large piece was cracked.

Ji Yu happened to come in from the front yard, and saw Xiaozhou's towering shoulder blades at a glance, as well as the dense scars and whip marks on the back of his shoulders.

She finally remembered where she had seen the boat—the dock, the boy carrying the bag!

"Oops! Can you sew such a large piece? Mu Laoqi looked more distressed than Xiaozhou.

Xiaozhou put down the wood, hooked his head and looked back, and said a word.

It doesn't matter if he looks good or not, he can still wear it if he can sew it together.

Ji Yu walked over and found that the fabric was rotten, no wonder she couldn't stand a little tearing.

"You can't make up for this, or ......"

I was about to say if I wanted to buy one, but I suddenly stopped.

With his little salary, where can he afford a new padded jacket.

Ji Yu didn't open her mouth to buy you a new one, but suggested, "Isn't there a clothing appraisal shop in the city?" It sells used clothes, which will be cheaper. ”

Xiao Zhou thought about it, but still shook his head, this money is useful to keep, it is the old clothes of the clothing shop, and he is not willing to give it up.

"Thank you, the owner, you can still wear it."

It happened that Ping An came to play while he was free, and when he saw that his clothes were torn like this, he was reluctant to spend money to buy them, so he went back and gave him his old clothes.

It is said that it is an old clothes, which is a hundred times better than the original one of Xiaozhou, clean and clean, without a patch, and it is a real cotton jacket.

Ping An has been in the past two years, and his hands and necks are exposed when he wears them, and he originally planned to send them to the clothing appraisal shop, but this kind of coarse cloth clothes can't be estimated for a few dollars, and he has not been too lazy to go, so he delayed it.

Helping the overseer these days, he still likes Xiaozhou, the child, and he doesn't feel distressed when he wears it.

But after all, he is several years older than Xiaozhou, and he is much taller, he wears a little small, but Xiaozhou wears a big circle.

Ping An had already guessed, so he took an extra belt, tied it to his waist, and then rolled up his sleeves a few times, and it was all right!

Xiaozhou was a little uneasy, it was so new, he had never worn such a new one.

Ping An Qi said, "There should be a lot of money allocated to the Salesian Institute in the county every year, and there are those big families who donate clothes and materials during the New Year's holidays, why do you ......?"

Just like in later generations, the public psychology is actually clear about some bad phenomena or shortcomings in social and people's livelihood, but they can only complain verbally, or hit the keyboard and scold a few words, and no matter how much they can't do.

In the huge Yeyang City, there are people who still believe that the Salesian Bureau is a good and blessed land, and this kind of person is the majority.

Of course, there are those who have long been aware of the shady, or sympathetic or angry.

But what's the use of that? The arms can't twist the thighs, if you still want to live in Yeyang, you can only shut up.

Ji Yu met two country men that time, and they were outside the city gate, so she didn't have so many scruples when she spoke, otherwise......

Mu Laoqi and Ping'an left one after another, and Ji Yu left the boat to the end.

She asked Xiaozhou, "Did you carry a bag for someone at the dock outside the city last winter?" ”

A hint of nervousness flashed across Xiao Zhou's face, "I'm no longer in the Salesian Bureau. ”

Ji Yu was puzzled: "Didn't the Salesian Bureau want to raise you until you were sixteen years old?" ”

Xiaozhou corrected: "The male is raised to fifteen." ”

"Even if it's fifteen, you're not even too old this year."

"I'll be fifteen years old."

Ji Yu was shocked, she always thought that Xiaozhou was only more than ten years old, at most as big as Hu Dacheng, who would have thought that he would be fourteen!

That's too thin......

But if you think about it, if you don't have enough to eat at the Salesian Bureau, you can't keep up with your nutrition, and you're still being kicked out early to work to make money, and if you are overworked, your growth and development will definitely be affected.

Take Dabao as an example, after carefully recuperating him for a year, he still looks a little weaker than children of the same age.

"In other words, you were kicked out before you turned fifteen?!"

Ji Yu felt angry.

Xiaozhou reminded her of what happened to the Salesian Bureau last year.

At that time, she was in a hurry to find Dabao, and broke into the inner courtyard of the Salesian Bureau, and she clearly saw what the children were doing, and the little dolls of several years old were called to fold the dead and sacrifices.

And at that time, she couldn't do anything but give a few cheap sympathies.

The only way to reach the top management was Meng Lizheng, who reminded her that the water was impassable.

Maybe it's because a person in his previous life was used to living and was too cold, and the first thing to measure in case of trouble was himself; He was too rational and knew that he couldn't do anything, so he gave up decisively.

She took her foot back, no longer looking, not daring to pay any more.

Adults, knowing how to seek good fortune and avoid evil is the most basic truth.

Today, she is still a small person with little weight, but at least among the people she knows, there are people who can get in touch with Yeyang's leader.

Thinking like this is a bit generous to others, and Ji Yu doesn't want to kidnap others with her own minds.

But she thinks it's better to give it a try.

Discuss it with Xin Ziqi, if you can do it, if you can't do it......

When she had money in the future, she would help those children in her own way.

Xiaozhou is a smart one, and he can see through Ji Yu's thoughts at a glance.

He knew that the proprietor was a warm-hearted man, and from the beginning he had expressed concern about his young age to work, and now that he knew that he was from the Salesian Bureau and had worked at the docks, would he go there......

"Boss, can you please not go to the Salesian Bureau to look for them."
