"Chenchen, someone is here again, go and help boil some hot water!"

"Okay!"

This day was Chenchen's first day of working in the Juyi Hall, and he seemed to be quite handy. The guests of the Juyi Hall are all homeless and poor, and for them, it may be more just a place to rest, so it is not difficult to take care of them.

And those who come will not really live here, and Shanyi Tang will not provide accommodation services. Often, it is the sudden change of the family that runs out of food, or the wanderers who hike pass through the place, receive help and continue on the road, so in their daily work, there are basically no familiar faces.

Chenchen's usual work is also very simple, or rather, the work here is very simple: boil some hot water to dry aside, watch the ground dirty and sweep the floor, help cook when it's time to eat, and chat with the people here. It can be said that this place is like a small post station, and you can hear all kinds of news from all over the world every day when you work here. This is also one of the reasons why Chen Chen chose to work here.

When Chenchen boiled the hot water and came out, he saw a group of people coming in outside, filling the originally empty room at once. "What's going on, was it like this before?" Chen Chen couldn't help but ask.

"This has never happened before......" Apparently, Qiao Qingyu had never seen this kind of scene, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

"Don't panic, you guys go see if they need help, and I'll ask what's going on." Ye Xianglian ordered.

"Okay." Chen Chen and Joe whispered.

"Hello, can I ask for any help?" Chen Chen asked a middle-aged man.

"Oh, can you give me something to eat, I'm starving." Although the middle-aged man looked very embarrassed, he was still very polite in conversation.

It's not time for lunch, but fortunately, there are still some dry food in the kitchen, so Chen Chen brought some.

Now Ye Xianglian was asking where they came from, Qiao whispered and started to take care of people from the other direction, and even the youngest Han Xueming was helping to wipe the table. Chen Chen looked at Zhou Ruoying, the only one who was stunned next to him, and thought that there should be some more people in a while, and the room should at least look neat at first glance: "By the way, Ruoying, you can help sweep the floor, we are all busy." ”

It stands to reason that this request is not excessive, after all, they are all colleagues who work here, and you can't be idle when everyone is working, right? But when she heard Chenchen call her name, she still trembled all over.

At this time, Ye Xianglian stood up from the crowd and walked over. Chen Chen and Qiao whispered for the time being, put down the work at hand for the time being, and asked, "How is it, did you ask something?" ”

"I asked, in the past few days, there has been a great drought in the north, and famine is rampant. These people have fled here. ”

"Ah, wouldn't there be a lot of people coming?" Joe exclaimed softly.

"This time should be a little busy, let's work harder." Saying that, Ye Xianglian turned her face to Chen Chen's side, "Especially you, I'm really embarrassed that you just came here to let you deal with this kind of thing." ”

Chen Chen waved his hand: "It's okay, since I'm here to help, I shouldn't pick and choose." ”

"That's good." Ye Xianglian nodded, "Then let's get busy." ”

After Ye Xianglian left, Chen Chen also just wanted to return to his post, but suddenly stopped, and Qiao behind him was stunned softly, "What's wrong?" ”

Chen Chen didn't speak, but raised his chin and pointed at Zhou Ruoying on the side.

At this time, Zhou Ruoying was holding a broom, standing in the crowd, her face flushed. She seemed to be in the way of others, and after someone told her something, she said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" and got out of the way.

No, didn't I tell her to sweep the floor, what was she doing there? Chen Chen patted his forehead, what should he say, this matter was even somewhat reasonable and he was not surprised.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Chen Chen walked in and asked Zhou Ruoying.

She lowered her head, shrunk her body behind the broom, and said timidly, "This ...... Uncle, I want to sweep the things under his feet......"

Chen Chen looked down, and the man who was pretending to sleep was stepping on a brown piece of oiled paper. "Hello uncle, can you raise your foot and let us sweep the floor?"

The man opened his eyes, looked at Chen Chen and then at the soles of his feet, and hurriedly answered a few times, and then let his feet go.

Alas, this person, why is it so unreassuring. Chen Chen looked at Zhou Ruoying, and then at Han Xueming, who was doing all these things smoothly, and said, "Look at you, look at her again, she is still a child." ”

"I'm sorry!" Zhou Ruoying just lowered her head and kept apologizing, and Qiao next to her laughed softly.

In short, this hectic life did not last long, and fewer and fewer people migrated because of the famine, until they finally disappeared. These days, countless people have asked about the good places around, and Ye Xianglian has also answered them one by one. Alas, there are slight changes in the heavens, and the people are the first to suffer.

Finally, the busy day is over, and I haven't had a good rest for a long time. Chen Chen walked outside, just as Qiao Qingyu was also standing outside with the railing, the moonlight like water seemed to put a thin veil on her, revealing mystery in the cold.

"Come to see the moon too?" Joe asked softly.

"Yes." Chenchen said, walking to her side, also leaning against the railing.

The moonlight is cold, and the wind brings the same feeling. Bathed in the cold wind, I feel a little clearer.

"You said you were a student of Jianghan Academy? So what do you want to do after graduation? The first to break this tranquility was Qiao Whispering on the side.

"After graduation...... Let's continue along this path. I'll tell you the truth, I'm a chanter now. Chen Chen said.

"Really? That's great, too. There was envy in her tone. After a moment of silence, she said to herself, "You know, I didn't have parents when I was a child, and I've always been wandering with memories. Sometimes he was beaten with a dozen sticks for stealing, and sometimes he was caught a few times for stealing food with wild dogs. ”

She rolled over, leaning on the railing on her elbows, half of her face looking a little lonely in the moonlight. "After that, I met Sister Xianglian, who took me in and gave me a place to return. Ha, if there are no accidents, I should follow her, no matter what path she chooses. ”
