Chapter 74

"Since you are all here, then I will naturally take care of your food, but I will also say ugly things ahead, when I arrive in my Jinxiu Village, in the future, those habits of stealing chickens and dogs, I will quit it, if I find out who has unclean hands and feet, directly send it to the government for investigation, the circumstances are serious, and I directly ask the official to beat him to death." This group of people has unknown character, Ye Lan wants to give everyone a dismount, naturally she has a good voice, although she is small, her momentum is not small, everyone was bluffed by her for a while, and everyone was bluffed by herself, seeing that everyone was bluffed by herself, Ye Lan continued,

"Of course, as long as you give me a job honestly, I will naturally not treat you badly."

"We get it, little boss." After a pause, Mao Da spoke, "Don't worry, when we come here, we will never bring bad habits here, these little brothers are very obedient to me, and I will take care of them." ”

Ye Lan nodded, looking at more than two dozen people, only a few people were holding quilts in their hands, and some people were holding small packages in their hands, thinking that this was all the belongings of Mao Da and others, and looked back at Jinhua,

"Aunt Jinhua, you go to the village chief and ask him if he can take out two spare rooms in the school for them to live in."

These people are all thieves, I'm afraid that even if the villagers have empty houses at home, they don't worry about letting them live, so they have to sleep in the empty house next to the school, of course, when the school was built, in addition to building two rooms for Xiucai, a few more classrooms were built, but there was no need to be empty for the time being, it was empty and empty, and it was nothing to lend these people to live in, but Ye Lan made up her mind to have time to build a few more houses, so that there would be no place for workers to live in the future, and if there were guests at home, there would be a place to arrange.

Jin Hua got the order, ran to the village chief, and brought back the village chief and said that the school was built at her expense, and she arranged it.

Hearing this, Ye Lan asked Jinhua to take Mao Da and the others to the school, "There are people in the school hall over there, you go quietly, don't disturb the children's classes, because the empty house was originally intended to be used as a classroom, not a room, so there is no kang in it, disturb it for a while, spread some grass on the ground, and then you will live there temporarily, Aunt Jinhua, you will take someone to the villagers' houses to ask for some hay to spread on the ground for them, and it will be cold at night, and the ground will be thicker, so as not to be cold and frozen." ”

Mao Da brought his brother to work for Ye Lan, just to have a full meal, at this moment I heard Ye Lan say to spread the ground thicker, so as not to let them get cold, ordinary words of concern, suddenly made these thieves who have never been cared for by outsiders feel complicated and inexplicable, and some people unconsciously have a lot less psychological resistance to coming here to help Ye Lan work for a month.

Ye Lan didn't know about the changes in the psychological activities of Mao Da and the others, so she explained to Jinhua, so she asked everyone to follow Jinhua, "Be honest with me, if anyone dares to find trouble in the village, I will be the first to clean him up." ”

Others don't know that Ye Lan is powerful, but Mao Da knows, and without saying a word, he patted his chest and promised that he would definitely be optimistic that the little brothers would not find trouble, but with the face that was beaten into a pig's head, it looked a little weird.

Jin Hua took everyone to settle down, Ye Lan returned home, embroidered in Qiao Zi's room, and looked at her daughter a little worried, "Do you really want to use them, aren't you afraid of trouble in their village?" ”

"There are more villagers than they are, and they have to think about making trouble in the village." Ye Lan chuckled, "And I'm not afraid of them, if they are really disobedient, they will be driven out, and I will also have the idea to clean them up at that time." ”

Hearing her daughter speak so confidently, Qiao Zi was relieved, but she just thought that it would be better to hide the family's money.

Mao Da and the others arrived, and it really attracted the attention of the villagers, although some people were still hostile to them, but they knew that they were here to work as a coolie for Ye Lan for free for a month, everyone did not embarrass them, and there were Jinhua walking in front, and no one came to find fault.

Jinhua came forward, very much the villagers have contributed hay at home, according to Yelan's words, Jinhua let everyone take a lot of hay back to spread on the ground, a thick layer, to ensure that it will not be cold to sleep on the hay at night, looked at the size of the empty house, Mao Da took the initiative to say that as long as one room is on the line, they can sleep, no need to lay a second room, one is troublesome, and the other is that it is warmer to sleep at night when there are many people, Jinhua listened to them, but this hay is a little uncomfortable to sleep, she looked at Mao Da,

"Do you have a sheet on the hay or something, it's not comfortable to sleep on the hay like this."

"It's okay, it's the same when we sleep in a broken house, and we don't have so much hay." Mao Da shook his head casually, the villagers did not stand up to trouble them and took the initiative to provide hay, Jinhua was also so concerned about settling them, which made him very grateful, he Mao Da is not greedy, nor is he uninteresting, he will take revenge, who is good to him and who is bad to him, he remembers it in his heart,

"Brothers, put everything down."

A room, the hay is laid next to the wall, two rows, leaving an aisle in the middle, more than 20 people sleeping, enough, Jinhua saw Mao Da and others and threw the broken quilt in their hands on the hay, very embarrassed, kind-hearted and a little unbearable, in fact, they steal things to live,

"I'll go back first, you stay here, I'll come to you if there's something, there's a gentleman next door to class, you should speak quietly, don't make noise to the children next door to class."

"What, don't you have to go to work today?" Mao Da asked.

"Today is a holiday, I don't have to go to work, and it just rained in the morning, so it's not easy to do things." The golden flower spoke.

"So, didn't we eat today?" Mao Da looked at Jin Hua a little embarrassed, "We ate a little bit at noon yesterday, and then some brothers ate a little bit when we stole things at night, and most of the brothers only drank a few sips of water and starved to death." ”

"I haven't worked yet, so I'm thinking about eating, waiting, I'll go back and ask." A glimmer of annoyance flashed in Jin Hua's eyes, hoping that these people would be more interesting, otherwise don't blame her Jin Hua for not giving face.

"We can work." Looking at Jinhua's back, Mao Da hurriedly said.

The school is repaired, although everyone can only sleep on the ground, but it is much better than living before, Mao Twenty-five is a group of people who are young, only six years old, see the house, immediately like it, and wait for Jinhua to leave, ran over to Mao Da said,

"Big brother, I like it so much, will we all live here in the future?"

Mao Da was stunned for a moment, with a gentle tone that did not match the pig's head face, "Twenty-five likes it here?" ”

"Yes." Mao Twenty-five nodded firmly.

"If we can be obedient and work obediently, maybe we can live here forever, and we can eat every day, will we be obedient at twenty-five?"

"Yes, twenty-five must be obedient and obedient, twenty-five can still work, there is a lot of work to do, twenty-five wants to stay here." Mao Twenty-five's immature little face was full of anticipation.

"Big brother, I'm reading next door, can I go and listen?" This time, he was twenty-five or twenty-five years old and twenty-four years old, and the sound of reading came from next door, which made him itch when he had never been to school.

As soon as Mao's twenty-four words came out, many people immediately looked at Mao Da, and they were also very curious about what it was like to read and recognize words, in their eyes, it was already a very magical thing.

"However, the little boss said that he was not allowed to disturb the children who were studying." A hint of hesitation flashed in Mao's big eyes.

"We don't bother, just listen outside." Mao Er's eyes flashed with cunning.

couldn't withstand the expectant eyes of his younger brothers, Mao Da could only nod, "Okay, everyone have to be obedient, we listen quietly, we can't make a sound, we can't disturb their classes, otherwise if the little boss gets angry and drives us away, we will have nothing to eat and no place to live, you know?" ”

"Got it, big brother is great." With the consent of the eldest brother, the younger brothers were very happy.

"Shhhhhhh Mao Da hurriedly reminded everyone.

"Oh, shhhh reacted, and everyone booed.

So, twenty-five small thieves of all sizes quietly ran to the corner of the next class and squatted, and then eavesdropped on Zhang Xiucai's lecture, the children did not find them in class, but Zhang Xiucai found out, although it was noisy outside last night, he didn't get up, so he didn't know these little thieves, but he didn't bother his class, and he didn't see the lunch, and continued to teach the children.

Jin Hua returned to Ye Lan's house and told the little thieves about the situation, Ye Lan was not a stingy person, so she immediately asked Jin Hua to wash rice and cook, and asked Li and his wife next to her to come over to help.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Li, Aunt Li, I still called you over today, yes, you see Mao Da and their group of people are coming, living in the empty house in the school, there is no bed, although there is hay on the ground, but you can't sleep directly on the hay, and they only have a few quilts for more than 20 people, seeing that the sky is getting colder and colder, where is this, you go to the village and ask everyone if there is any extra quilt, if you have words, I will pay to buy it, send it to Mao Da and them, and then ask Mao Da and them to come a few people, and there are some linen cloth in the warehouse, Use it as a sheet. ”

"Okay, I'll ask." Li Da and his wife nodded, and the two of them acted separately, Li Da went to call Mao Da and the two of them to move the sackcloth, and then Li went door to door to ask if there was any extra quilt at home.

Although the villagers are relatively poor, there are still some people who have extra quilts at home, and everyone doesn't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, even if they don't like Mao's big group, but this is Ye Lan's mouth, so there are five quilts sent over, everyone shook their heads and said that they don't want money, and the worthless quilt is given to Ye Lan.

How could Ye Lan take advantage of everyone, estimated the market price and gave it to everyone, Li Da went to call Mao Da and found that a group of people were hiding outside the classroom to listen to Zhang Xiucai's lecture, but they didn't mess up, and they were quite satisfied, and quietly asked Mao Da to bring five strength to go with him.

Mao Da thought he was going to work, so he immediately named Mao Ermao, three Mao, four Mao, five Mao, and six to follow him, "Brother Li, where are we going now, what are we doing?" ”

"Just let you follow me, you'll know when you arrive, why are you asking so much?" Li Da looked at Mao Da angrily.

"Hehe, Brother Li, I was ignorant before, if there is something to offend, you can forgive me, don't be like me." Since you want to live in Splendid Village for a month, you naturally have to have a good relationship with these villagers, and there is no problem with desserts.

Li Da is also a real person, hearing that Mao Da took the initiative to admit his mistake, thinking that he would also have to work in the future, although he forced them to come, but they agreed to come, and they were also talkers, so their attitude was better.

"It was the little boss who said that it would be uncomfortable for you to sleep on the hay, so he asked you to bring some linen back as a sheet, and asked my mother-in-law to ask if there were many quilts in the village, and the little boss bought them and gave them to you."

"Really?" When Mao Da heard this, he was immediately moved, "The little boss is really so good to us?" ”

"You will know very much, the little boss is a very good person, as long as you are honest here, the little boss will not treat you badly, but if you are not honest, let alone the little boss, we will not let you go." Li Da never forgot to defend Ye Lan.

When the six people arrived at Ye Lan's house, the villagers had already sent five quilts, Ye Lan asked Mao Da to move two pieces of linen, and then took the five quilts away.

"You shop yourself, it's not early today, it's too late to enter the city, tomorrow I will send someone into the city to buy some daily necessities and come back, I still say the same thing, as long as you are honest, I will not treat you badly, the kitchen has already cooked, and I will send someone to call you over for dinner when the meal is ready."

Mao Da didn't expect that he would say it casually, Ye Lan would really let people cook for themselves, and the food for more than 20 of them was also not a small amount, plus they just came, and they still came in the way of atonement for the sins of the little hairy thief, so it is said that they should be treated with white eyes, but Ye Lan did not give herself white eyes from beginning to end, and even the villagers remained kind, for a while, it was difficult to describe their mood in words, but they made up their minds to behave well this month, so as not to disturb their conscience.

After Jinhua finished cooking, Ye Lan asked Li Da to inform Mao Da that they came to eat, and then asked Jinhua to put a bowl of fried pork with Chinese cabbage and bring it home to Li, which was regarded as thanking them for their friendship and help, Li took it with a smile, said thank you and took it home.

When Mao Da and the others heard that there was food to eat, they jumped to Ye Lan's house, thinking that they were just eating casually, but when they saw Jinhua in the yard arranging rice and cabbage fried meat, they were suddenly a little stunned, is this for them to eat?

"What are you doing standing there, didn't you say you're hungry, come over and eat, line up, come one by one, take the bowl first, and then serve the meal yourself, eat as much as you want, don't have any leftovers, if anyone is found to be deliberately wasting food, he will be deducted from a meal."

"It's coming, it's coming." Mao Da came back to his senses, glanced at Mao Er, and hurriedly beckoned his younger brothers to line up, from childhood to adulthood, Mao Twenty-five was the first to eat.

"There are too many people, there is no seat, everyone just stand or squat to eat, in the yard or go out, and put the bowl in that big basin after eating." Jinhua commanded again.

"Yes."

Twenty-five people lined up, and everyone had a meal, and everyone didn't leave, so they squatted together in twos and threes, and heard someone exclaim from time to time,

"Wow, and meat."

"Wow, it's delicious."

"Boss, I think this family is pretty good." Mao Er and Mao squatted together, eating rice in a bowl and discussing in a whisper,

"If they've been so good, can we consider making a decision?"

No one is born a thief, and no one is born to be a thief, they get together for a variety of reasons, but then become a thief, it is a last resort.

If someone can treat them well and give them a job, they will also be willing to be redone.

No matter what they do to others, but their twenty-five brothers are close to each other like a family, and the younger brothers are almost obedient to the eldest brother and the second brother.

Mao Da also had this thought in his heart, but at the beginning, he didn't know whether Ye Lan was really good to them or fake, but eating the fragrant food in the bowl, the defense line in his heart had reached a low level, and when he heard the second brother talking to him at this moment, he said,

"Let's take a look."

Anyway, there is still a month, if this month is observed, Ye Lan is really a good person, a good boss, then it is not bad for them to stay like this.

They are not very demanding, as long as they have a full meal to eat, and then don't abuse them, they are satisfied, no matter how hard and tiring they are, they can do it.

"Okay." Mao Er understood what Mao meant and nodded in agreement.
