Chapter 21 Snacks are delicious

Fan Qianqian said: "Child, you're welcome, just treat this place as if it were your own home." After eating, I'll ask your aunt to take you shopping. "Grandma, I'm going to play on the street with my mother. Nine-year-old Shui Gongming exclaimed happily. "Okay, okay, all three of you sisters and brothers are going to play with your mother, come, I'll give you thirty copper plates to buy osmanthus cakes for you and your sister and your two little gluttons to eat, so that you don't drool in front of the stall. Fan Qianqian said with a smile. Shui He smiled angrily: "Mother, don't get used to him, you have to make him suffer a little." Look at Xiao Shi, people are people who have suffered. ”

After the family finished breakfast, Yao Lanlan led Dugu Yishi and Shui Yunyue, Shui Gongming, and Shui Baqian sisters and brothers to the most prosperous juggling street in Nanyan Town. Nanyan Town is basically divided into streets according to functions, including inn streets, juggling streets, food streets, daily necessities streets and so on.

Dugu Yishi looked down at the bluestone pavement under his feet for a while, looked at the neat and beautiful houses on both sides of the street for a while, and looked at the crowds coming and going for a while, and felt that the town was really good, I had to work hard to make money, and when I made money, I also opened a shop in the town and took Grandpa Dai and Grandma Zhang to live. The first time I came to the town, to a place with so many people, Dugu Yishi felt very happy and excited. When the five of them came to a restaurant, Yao Lanlan took out three copper plates and bought five bowls of sweetened milk, one bowl for each of the five.

This is the first time I have seen milk, and it is also the first time I have drunk milk. I really didn't expect that there are so many delicious things, fun things, and so many people in the world. Milk in your mouth and into your stomach, it tastes so sweet, it feels so good. Yao Lanlan said: "Xiao Shi, you used to be very miserable in the orphanage. I've never seen so much delicious food. You spend a few more days in town before heading back to Crescent Village. Tell me what you like to eat, and we'll buy it back now. Dugu Yishi said: "Auntie, I still have more than 2,000 copper plates, let me pay for it myself." Uncle Qianshui, who lives in the hotel, doesn't want my money, I really don't want to go. If you don't buy it with my money, I won't eat anything. Yao Lanlan said: "Okay, it's up to you." Look, this is steamed buns and steamed buns, over there are flower rolls and pancakes, and this is sunflower seeds, fried broad beans and rice sugar. Dugu Yishi's eyes were straight when he saw it, and his saliva flowed out. Later, they bought some golden buttery fritters and fried wheat and onion cakes.

For three days, Dugu Yishi saw many new things, delicious things, beautiful things, and many people in Nanyan Town that he had never seen in ten years. These profoundly affected his thoughts, emotions and attitude towards life. He reluctantly left Miss Yunyue's family and Nanyan Town, but he seemed to have left his soul in the streets and alleys of Liuyun Xiaoke and Nanyan Town.

Back at the house of Mrs. Zhang, the old man Dai, Dugu Yishi happily brought a lot of delicious things to them to eat, and the two old people said that they couldn't eat so much, so you should eat it yourself, you are growing up, and you should strengthen your nutrition.

Since then, the task of going to Nanyan Town to buy things has been done by Dugu Yishi, and Yishi's mood is better and better every time. He felt that his life had really changed a lot, and it was a hundred times better than in the orphanage. He felt that his life was very good now, he happily went to Xushankou to chop wood, and went to the field with Grandpa Dai to weed, loosen the ground, and dig sweet potatoes. It's just a pity that he can't find a martial arts master yet, and it seems that his dream of learning martial arts for a while and practicing martial arts can't be realized. The happiest thing for him is to go to Nanyan Town, he likes that town, likes the people there, and prefers Miss Yunyue's family.

Such a happy day of labor makes Dugu Yishi feel that every day is very meaningful, and even feels that life is nothing more than that. A few months passed. One day, Dugu Yishi remembered that Miss Yunyue asked him to go to the poultry processing workshop in Nanyan Town to work and make money, so he said to the old man: "Grandpa Dai, I want to go to a workshop in Nanyan Town to work and make money, and it was introduced by Miss Yunyue." Do you see it?" said the old man, "Okay." You used to say that you went to Qiyun Mansion to do things, and I really didn't feel at ease. Now it's good, Nanyan Town is not far away, and you can make money there, which is good. In the future, I often go to Nanyan Town to see you. Dugu Yishi said: "Grandpa Dai, you are old, and it is easy to walk dangerously, just like the last time you fell into a pond, it is too dangerous." From now on, I will be responsible for buying things for you in Nanyan Town. I come back once every half a month. Granny Zhang said, "That's good." Xiao Shi is really a good boy with filial piety. Old man, we will both be blessed in the future. ”

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Yishi said goodbye to Grandpa Dai and his wife, and took a carriage to Nanyan Town. Seeing that Yishi arrived as promised, Miss Yunyue was very happy and immediately took him to the poultry processing workshop. The owner of the workshop is a middle-aged man surnamed Zhang in his fifties, and he and his son, who are in his early twenties, are in charge of the workshop, and he has recruited eleven workers and another foreman. Boss Zhang tried the strength of Yishi, and when he saw that Yishi could carry a 100-kilogram sandbag, he accepted him. Piecework is calculated, generally working at least ten hours a day, if you work overtime, at least until two o'clock in the evening, food and lodging to solve your own problem. Although Dugu Yishi felt that it was very hard to work at least ten hours a day, in order to stay in Nanyan Town, he told himself that he would have to do it no matter how hard he was, because he loved this town and Miss Yunyue's family. But then the hardships and humiliations of work are beyond his imagination now, and he really sighs that it is not easy to make money!

After doing it for a few days, Dugu Yishi felt that he could continue to do it, but after five days, the workshop began to work overtime, and it was two o'clock in the evening. Sometimes, because of the severe lack of sleep, he put his hands on his thighs together, and rested his head on his hands for a nap, but after a few seconds of sleep, the workshop foreman took a whip and plucked his feet, and shouted, "Hey, what are you doing, do your work!" He looked up and saw that the foreman Wang Fat was staring at him. Helplessly, Yishi quickly raised his head and quickly plucked the feathers on the chicken with both hands.

There are twelve workers in the workshop, and Wang Fatzi does not work, but supervises the workers. Each worker has one workstation, one stool, one kitchen knife, one board, four baskets, and two buckets. During working hours, in addition to going to the toilet, every worker must stay at his own station and work quickly, not to mention sleeping and napping, or being scolded if he is slow. Taking a nap like Dugu Yishi is absolutely not allowed.

Although it was very hard, Dugu Yishi held on. Every time he went to bed very late, he fell asleep as soon as he lay down. I have to get up at seven o'clock the next day.
