Chapter 61: Recruiting thugs
"Alas!" An Wang sighed, "Son, father, you hurry up and help July find someone!" Don't delay the time, if you delay any longer, you can't find the village or town today, I'm hungry and bored, I can't eat or drink water, and I'm going to collapse! Jiajia can't stand it anymore! ”
The face is full of vegetables, the lips are exceptionally chapped, all of them are similar, only the five people in Xia and July, the dishes on the face are fake, although they are also thirsty, but they are not to the point of chapped lips, although the surface is the same weak, but they are all fake!
"Hmm!" The patriarch didn't say much, and walked away with the crutches that had not left his hand all the way.
After a while, he brought six young men over, and at this time he couldn't tell how strong and hungry he was, but he was still picked by the patriarch to be in a better situation, and he was willing to protect Xia Qiyue's family who fled all the way to the famine.
Xia Qiyue saw that there was still the son of the uncle's family here, and what surprised her even more was that there was An Zihao.
The patriarch saw her doubts, shook his head, and explained to her, "Zihao was separated by his mother, and this little girl was also recorded to him, I looked really pitiful, so I brought it over!" ”
An Zihao lowered his head a little embarrassed, when the patriarch told him, he came over without hesitation, but he was a little embarrassed when he saw the fourth sister-in-law.
After all, they are all a family, and he actually protects his fourth sister-in-law and asks for silver, which is too much to say.
"Fourth sister-in-law... I don't want silver, just... Just let Ling'er sit with Xuan'er Ke'er, I'll push the wheelchair, okay? The voice was very low, but it came clearly into Xia Qiyue's ears, "I, I really don't know how to take care of the child..."
Xia Qiyue didn't expect Ge Mingyu and An Zikang to really give this girl to An Zihao, but they were really ruthless, looking at the little girl who was being held by An Zihao in front of her, her face was hot, and she talked nonsense from time to time, Xia Qiyue knew that the grievances of adults were not always good for children.
What's more, this little girl has never been taken seriously by Ge Mingyu, she was tortured at a young age, and now that she is with An Zihao, she can't help but help.
At the very least, she is still a cousin of two children, and she doesn't look at the face of the Buddha and the face of the monk.
"No need to be special, the silver is still for you, the three children just sit down, let Ling'er sit down!" Xia Qiyue said lightly.
Although she said that she couldn't sprinkle her anger on the child, she couldn't be enthusiastic.
"Thank you, fourth sister-in-law..."An Zihao pursed his dry lips, and he didn't know what to say except for this.
"Okay, a few of them are also coming along, July girl, you make it clear to them, we're going to leave too! It's all waiting! ”
The patriarch waved his hand and introduced the remaining five people to Xia Qiyue.
One is the cousin An Liang of the uncle's family, two of them are brothers, when they were in the village, the two brothers were good at robbery, and there were two brothers in the family, one was seventeen years old, the other was nineteen years old, and there was a sister who was only five years old.
Their father was also a hunter, less than forty years old, and the burden of the family was enough to shoulder, so as soon as the patriarch said it, the brothers came out to earn money.
One is called Anton, and the other is called Ancheng.
The other three Xia Qiyue all knew each other, and among them was the son of the patriarch's family, that is, An Youde, the second eldest of the patriarch's family, who was looking at Xia Qiyue with a smile and greeting him.
One is the youngest son of An Lao Zhuang's family, An Sijin, who is the same age as An Zihao, who is only seventeen years old and has not started a family.
An Laozhuang named his sons very casually, Dajin, Erjin, Sanjin, Sijin, and the daughter saw it, and the eldest girl and the second girl went to the back row.
The other is the son of Lizheng's eldest brother, who is only sixteen years old, named An Jiarui.
The reason why I found them was because I couldn't find anyone who was married, and after I had a family, everyone in the family needed them and couldn't get out.
Xia Qiyue looked at the six spiritual guys who are now hungry, but they know that they are all good.
"Good! Let me tell you all about it, that is, just protect our mother and two younger brothers and sisters along the way, and then give you a salary of one or two taels of silver a month, and when we can buy food and water, we can eat together. ”
Li Zheng had already summoned people to leave, and Xia Qiyue didn't dare to delay the time, "As for the rest of the time, you can go on your own, you don't have to follow us, just do it as usual!" ”
She doesn't want to be too ostentatious, she just wants to find someone who can protect them and make a move at a critical time, and she doesn't want to treat people as subordinates.
Except for An Zihao, the other five of the six people agreed happily, and then each went back to their own team, but after they went back, those families got closer to Xia Qiyue, intentionally or unintentionally.
The salary of one or two silver a month, that is something they dare not think of, even the price of food at the dock is not so high.
Twenty wen a day, and only 600 wen a month of non-stop work, not to mention that the work is not connected.
What's more, you can still earn silver on the way to escape the famine, and you can earn so much.
Xia Qiyue confessed that he should not make a noise, so the five of them didn't mean to make a noise after they went back, only An Zihao stayed, and after putting Ling'er in the wheelchair, the wheelchair instantly felt crowded, but the sensible two babies did not make a sound.
Ling'er's cousin is usually no better than them at home, often not having enough to eat, feeding chickens, sweeping the floor and working.
They weren't bullied either, so they weren't hostile to her.
At first, Mrs. An wanted to grab the eight taels of silver from Liu Mei, and An Qingyan also wanted to take away one or two pieces of silver, so she couldn't take care of Xia Qiyue's side.
Turning around again, she was busy dividing the old five out, she didn't want to do this, but the fifth child insisted on leaving the dead girl, and insisted on taking the sick and dying dead girl out, and when she saw that the old man didn't speak, she let him go, and waited until the dead girl died and then called her son back as a coolie.
Some people in the province said that she didn't treat the dead girl and boiled her to death.
When the matter was resolved, she successfully kicked out a dead girl who lost money, and sold another money-losing goods, and after seven taels of silver came to her, she turned her head and heard that Xia Qiyue earned a thousand taels, and suddenly felt that the seven taels of incense in her hand were gone.
Now it's time to take a step and scold a couple of sentences, saying that you missed the best opportunity.
Liu Mei was resentful in her heart, she sold her daughter but didn't take her daughter away, and the dead old woman only gave her a tael of silver, which she didn't want to, she was almost angry with her.
However, as soon as she heard that Xia Qiyue sold the drawings of the wheelchair for 1,000 taels of silver, she suddenly felt that her daughter had sold less.
Just a piece of broken paper was sold for 1,000 taels, but the eldest girl she raised to more than ten years old only sold for 8 taels of silver.
When she thought about it, she felt that she had lost a lot.
At the same time, she hated Xia Qiyue, and she couldn't say what she hated, but she just couldn't see that she was better than herself.
So the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who had just been nervous, had already begun to plot at this time, and their eyes looked at Xia Qiyue's pocket, but they didn't know that Xia Qiyue had six young men in his hands to protect them.
