Chapter Eighty-Six: Take in the Little Beggar

Xiang Jiuling saw the beggar guarding the door of their shop, so she went to get a clean bowl and put some food for her.

The beggar first glanced up at her, and then devoured it, grateful to Xiang Jiuling, she had nothing else to reciprocate, so she helped greet the guests, but the smell on her body was unpleasant, and many customers felt disgusting, and scolded there, which greatly affected the business of the store.

Seeing this situation, Xiang Jiuling did not blame, and tried her best to appease the guests, and then asked Qin Zhenzhen to take her to the back to take a shower and change clothes.

Through understanding, I learned that in fact, this girl had the same miserable background as Qin Zhenzhen, and she was a very hard-working person, living by begging all day long.

Sometimes you have to get it, sometimes you don't have it, and that day is really the last meal you haven't eaten.

If she didn't have anything to eat, she could only starve, so her face was not decently thin, even more pitiful than when Xiang Jiuling first saw Qin Zhenzhen.

Xiang Jiuling looked at her like this, and couldn't help but think of the people who fled the famine on the road, everyone was trying to eat enough, and they couldn't do anything, especially women, it was even more difficult to survive in this world, after all, the prejudice against women was already deep-rooted and could not be changed.

After pondering, she discussed with Wen Xi and decided to take in the girl.

Wen Xi has always let Xiang Jiuling make the decision on these matters, anyway, their family now has a place to eat, drink and live, and it would not be a good thing if they could help more people.

"I ...... Can I really stay here? ”

Xiang Jiuling nodded: "But you have to help with the work in the store, you can't be lazy." ”

"It's nature."

The girl was so busy that she couldn't get any more excited.

In the past, few people looked down on her, and they didn't treat her as a human being, and even children had to kick her twice when they saw her, as if she was a pest, and she didn't understand what she had done wrong, and she didn't expect that she would be taken in one day.

Next, this girl didn't need Xiang Jiuling to open her mouth and go to work.

She is quite quick with her hands and feet, she does things quickly and well, she wipes the table clean, there is no stain, and she works hard, she has to rush to do any dirty work, and basically no time is idle.

Xiang Jiuling saw it, and at the same time, she couldn't help but wonder: "I see that you have strange hands and feet, why didn't you go to the restaurant to find something to do before?" ”

"Madam, don't you know, like me called Hanako, they only feel unlucky, they won't let me go in to work, when they see me from afar, they will drive me away with a broom, how can anyone be like Madame Bodhisattva, I will definitely be a cow and a horse to repay Mrs. and her family in the future."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, thinking that she remembered those difficult days in the past.

Xiang Jiuling also understood how difficult it was for these hard-working people to survive, and sighed and said: "Okay, you don't have to think about it, you will work here in the future, although I don't have any great ability, but I can let you eat a full meal and have a place to live." ”

And after a while, it will be even colder, and she will either starve to death or freeze to death when she stays outside a girl's house, and it is pitiful to think about it, so she should be regarded as accumulating virtue and doing good.

Sanni is a kind little girl, and when she saw the newcomer in the house, she did not reject it, but said: "Yes, sister, you can stay here, our family's meals are delicious, they are all made by my mother, my mother is amazing, right?" ”

It's really a little gluttonous cat, and I'm still thinking about eating at this time.

Xiang Jiuling smiled helplessly, reached out and rubbed her little head, with a hint of pampering in her eyes: "Don't worry, I will make you something to eat tonight." ”

As the days passed, the business of Xiang Jiuling's small shop got better and better.

Although the decoration is simple, but the taste is delicious, there are not only all kinds of stir-fried here, but also beef noodles and shredded chicken noodles, the soup is made by Xiang Jiuling with the bones of the tube and the ingredients she exchanged from the system, the taste is basically not found on the market, it can be described as the only one.

Qin Zhenzhen and the others are very busy every day, tired and tired, but they are happy, especially when they see so many customers coming to the store every day, which proves that their business in the store is booming, and they are happy to be busy anyway.

Especially the girl who has just picked it up, her life is getting better day by day, not only has a comfortable and warm house for her to live in, but she eats a lot every day, and she will never be hungry and cold again.

She was more and more grateful to Xiang Jiuling for taking her in, if it weren't for her, she would still be begging on the street now, maybe she would attract people's eyes, and she didn't know if she could survive this winter.

Therefore, she doesn't need anyone to talk about it, she is called a Mali when she works, and she remembers the tastes of the guests firmly, and she never makes a mistake.

Xiang Jiuling was very satisfied with this, but the things she exchanged had to be taken out for a reason, otherwise it would be bad if someone found out, and Wen Xi was already suspicious, but he didn't say it explicitly.

She thought about it for a moment, and finally came up with a plan.

In fact, she can find a piece of wasteland on the barren mountain outside Beijing to grow food, so that the things she redeems from the system can be said to be grown by her, which can't help but save costs, and can also be promoted here, so that more people can taste these delicious things.

When tomatoes don't appear at this time, she can grow them under the guise of wasteland, and they can be promoted on a large scale in the future.

After Wen Xi heard about it, she felt that Xiang Jiuling was too hard to do this, after all, she had to look at the store and open up the wasteland, so she proposed to go to the barren mountain to help farm the land, but Xiang Jiuling shook her head and refused: "It's not necessary, don't worry, I'll ask someone to watch it, and besides, if you want to participate in the imperial examination, you still have to spend all your energy on books, you don't have to worry about other things." ”

Hearing this, Wen Xi's heart moved, and he was silent for a moment before nodding: "Okay, if you have anything to ask me to help with, you and I must say that since you and I are husband and wife, then everything must be discussed." ”

He also knew that she was in a hurry to make money, but she didn't want to open a gambling house or anything like that, after all, some things were more important than making money.

Hearing the word husband and wife, Xiang Jiuling raised her eyes to look at him, her expression was a little stunned, this word was still a little unfamiliar to her, although the two of them had been husband and wife for a long time, but she had not really regarded herself as Wen Xi's wife from her heart, she regarded herself more as the mother of three children, and fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.

Wen Xi, who realized this, was also a little unnatural on his face, although they had been married for a long time, they hadn't actually had much intimate contact, and he was also a man who didn't know anything, and some things were difficult to do.

The roots of his ears were slightly red, and he coughed lightly before saying, "Okay, since you have already decided, let's do it, it's not too early, I'll go boil hot water." ”

Some things can't be rushed, you have to take your time!
