Ji Yu thought he was afraid of being settled by the steward of the Salesian Bureau.

"Don't be afraid, I won't go to the Salesian Bureau, let's try to find Pan Zhixian, the county can always manage those people, right?"

The boat still didn't let it.

Ji Yu was very puzzled, and after repeated questioning, Xiaozhou revealed the reason.

He used to do a good job at the docks, but it was only because Pan Jiadao bumped into him during his inspection, and after finding out that he was from the Salesian Bureau, he ordered the foreman not to enslave children anymore, so he had no work left.

"Pan Zhixian didn't allow you to work, so he didn't explain anything else?"

"Explain, let me go back to the Salesian Bureau and study hard."

Ji Yu "......"

The fundamental reason why Xiaozhou appeared at the dock was the black heart of the Salesian Bureau, what was the use of not solving the root problem, just not letting him work?

Pan Zhixian may have good intentions, but there are some good intentions, and the weak can't afford it at all.

As far as Xiaozhou is concerned, it is indeed cruel for him to carry the bag, but it is even more cruel to not let him carry the bag before the initiator of letting him carry the bag is solved.

As he himself said, if he has no work to do, he will have no income, and he will not be able to fill his stomach, so he will no longer be able to secretly save money to buy food for his younger brothers and sisters in the Salesian Institute.

"Then how did you get kicked out?"

It is said that at Xiaozhou's age, it is the time to slowly "use", and the Salesian House even enslaves children, and the good seedlings who are ready to make money will be spared?

Xiaozhou hung his head, "The person in charge said that I deliberately sued in front of the magistrate......"

"They beat you?"

"Hmm." I beat it and locked it up in the firewood room for several days.

Xiaozhou rolled up his sleeves to show Ji Yu, they were all scars, and his left elbow was even a little deformed.

Ji Yu's heart twitched, and she gritted her teeth and scolded in a low voice, "These beasts! ”

Xiao Zhouwu told himself, "Lord Pan didn't let me work on the dock, and they didn't dare to send me there in other places where I could make money, for fear that I would make trouble again and be noticed by Lord Pan again......"

The risky man could not work, and it was useless to keep him, so he changed his age and drove him out of the Salesian.

Ji Yu inquired and learned that he was taken away in mid-October last year, only a week after she sent Dabao to the Salesian Bureau, and he was only thirteen years old at the time......

I can't imagine how he has spent this year.

"When they kick you out, they're not afraid that you'll really sue."

"The person in charge said, if I dare to cause trouble again, I will sell Xiaoxiang and them."

It's not that I didn't want to sue in the past, before him, there were older brothers and sisters, because they couldn't bear it anymore, they wanted to go to the magistrate to make decisions for them. However, before they could even enter the yamen, they were gagged and dragged back to the Salesian Bureau, and the screams in the firewood room continued from day to night, after which the people were gone.

The Salesian children were also interrogated one by one, asking them if they knew in advance, and even if they did not admit it, they could not escape being beaten, and then they were even more abused.

And so things settled down.

"That'...... At that time, since Pan Zhixian summoned you for questioning, why didn't you take the opportunity to ......?"

"It's useless." When Xiaozhou said these three words, his face was blank.

He knew the Jiang Xiancheng who was following Master Pan, and the steward of the Salesian Bureau nodded to Jiang Xiancheng and invited him into the most expensive restaurant in the town, which he had seen with his own eyes.

Xiaozhou raised his face and asked Ji Yu, "Is there really a good official?" ”

Ji Yu couldn't answer this question.

She herself has some doubts about Pan Jiadao, if she really loves the people like a son, how can she allow the Salesian Bureau of demons to run rampant? Did he really know nothing about it?

However, a person who is praised by Meng Lizheng and Xin Ziqi, and a person who is praised by the people of Yeyang, will really be as black as the crows in the world?

Perhaps, Pan Jiadao has not failed to take targeted measures, but they have not been implemented.

Just like in later generations, many policies were well conceived, but when they were implemented in the localities, because of the selfishness and greed of some people, they changed their flavor and lost their original intentions.

The scriptures are good scriptures, and I can't bear to be read crooked by the monks with crooked mouths.

A really good official, he wants to govern one side, the problems he faces every day are endless, the busyness is beyond imagination, it is difficult to see and listen to all directions, if there is a "middleman to make the difference" at this time......

But there are also many people who sell their fame and reputation, and they are the best at disguise.

Before you are sure what kind of person Pan Jiadao is, you really can't be reckless.

"Where do you live now?"

"The temple in the south of the city is broken. Boss, if you need someone to work in the future, you can go there and find me, I can do anything, it's cheap, or I don't give money, I can take care of a meal. ”

Ji Yu really didn't feel good in her heart, so she walked with her arms crossed her arms for a while and made a decision.

"Don't do it later, just now. I'm about to open my business, and I don't have enough people, so how about you stay with me as a young man? ”

Xiaozhou didn't expect good things to come so soon.

He was not good at expressing joy, but his dim eyes suddenly added brilliance.

"Thank you, thank you, ......"

Ji Yu held down the boat that bowed again and again.

"Don't go back to the broken temple, clean up the empty room in the backyard and come out, you just need someone to watch the store at night, is there a problem?"

Xiaozhou first said categorically that there was no problem, but at the end he was a little hesitant.

Ji Yu thought he wanted to ask for wages, so she said, "Don't worry, in addition to food and shelter, you can pay as much as other families, a lot of money, do a good job, and there will be rewards." ”

Xiaozhou hurriedly shook his hand, "No, I'm the owner, I'm ...... I—I've never been a buddy...... Or you can leave me down to do some chores, sprinkle and sweep the door, do the heavy work, it's okay! ”

For the lower classes, being able to be a guy in a shop in the city is already a decent job.

Xiaozhou used to do ninth-rate chores, and he was afraid that he would not be able to do it well and live up to Ji Yu's expectations.

Ji Yu smiled, "It just so happens that I haven't been a boss before, and this is the first time." I learn to be a boss, you learn to be a buddy, that's it. ”

"But ......" Xiaozhou hesitated, "I don't know how to ......"

He didn't have a clue.

"Tomorrow, the shopkeeper will also come, he used to be a buddy, let him take you, you will learn from him, watch more, listen more and use your brain, there is no problem."

Xiaozhou finally didn't refuse.

He suppressed his excitement and nodded heavily, "I will be the owner!" ”

When I came today, the carriage was loaded with some finished products in advance, and Guan Shan was unloading in front.

Xiaozhou said that he would do it, and ran over to help move it to the shop.

Guan Shan looked at Ji Yu who came out, and he only needed one look to know Ji Yu's decision.

It was almost time to eat after being busy, and Ji Yu originally wanted to take Xiaozhou down to the restaurant together.

Xiaozhou was embarrassed to come, and secondly, he knew that he would receive his salary today, so he asked the Salesian Bureau to go to the temple two days earlier to wait.

Ji Yu didn't force him to stay, just let him come over directly tomorrow.

Xiaozhou rushed out of the store with brisk steps, and as soon as Ji Yu saw him like this for the first time, she began to feel that the decision to recruit child laborers seemed to be good.

Let's help one by one.

In addition to solving the problem of food and clothing, I hope he can also get some sharpening in the store, and then grow up to the sun.

"You don't know, I thought Xiaozhou was more than ten years old at first, Ji Mu...... It's the brother I lost, and he's ...... age."

So every time she looks at Xiaozhou, who is so tired and miserable, Ji Yu always can't help but think, if Ji Mu is still alive, is he living this kind of life?

If possible, she wants to find Ji Mu back, and she can be regarded as doing something for Ji Lianbai's family.

But Ji Lianbai didn't find it for so long, the four seas are vast, where can she find it?

I hope that Ji Mu will still live well in this world, and grow up safe and happy in a well-meaning family.

I hope ......

Guan Shan lowered his eyes to listen to her, and patted her on the shoulder, "There will be that day." ”
