Chapter 147 Buying a yard as a gift for the girl

“Brother, why do they say our leeks are flavorful? How many times have we eaten them, but they are not.”

Zhu Xuesong laughed so fast I can't hold it in any longer.

“Everyone’s leeks are tasteless, they all have them, but we wash them every time. I think Liu Guangfu didn’t wash them, so don’t think about it.”

“Xue Feng, give me the key. You, take your sister over first, I have to go out and come over later."

"Brother, it's already dark, you're still busy, come here early."

"There's something going on. We have something to do. We have made an appointment with someone. You and your second brother will go there first, and the eldest brother will come over when he is finished.”

“What’s going on?”

Zhu Xuefeng looked at Qian Chuanzi. In this week, all the people in the yard were dismissed, and the original homeowner also disappeared with his family, but now There were actually four people left in the yard.

There was an old man, probably in his fifties, and three little girls, the first of whom was actually the eldest girl who was taking the tour at that time.

Qian Chuanzi was also in a dilemma. It took him a long time to explain that the previous landlord had left him with a big problem.

The old man is now childless and has no relatives. He has stayed in the compound for half his life and has no place to go. He is usually responsible for cooking.

The expressions of the three little girls are very strange now, a little sad, a little scared, and a little confused. Except for the eldest girl, the other two seem to be younger, about thirteen or fourteen years old.

It turns out that the three of them were bought by the homeowner when they were children before liberation. They have worked hard to raise them for more than ten years, but this time they were abandoned and had no place to go.

"Where are the household registrations? Do you have them?"

There are a few more people inexplicably these days. This food will kill you. Zhu Xuefeng is not in the habit of raising idle people these days. If you are not a big family, who has enough food to feed the idle people?

"Yes, yes, my old boss asked someone to do it for me. Old man, I just have nowhere to go. I have been here for half my life."

"As long as you are willing to keep me, I can do everything from cooking, cleaning the yard, and tidying up flower beds.”

The old man’s surname is Xie, and he’s pretty good at things. Zhu Xuefeng just asked about his household registration, and the old man quickly promoted himself. Indeed, he was very good at it. A piece of tiles, no bed on the ground, no place to live, so what can I do if I have a household registration?

It would be okay if he had a legal identity, otherwise it would be even more troublesome. Seeing that the three little girls remained silent, Zhu Xuefeng looked a little unhappy.

The three little girls were already in tears. Seeing Zhu Xuefeng looking at them with a livid face, they had no choice but to nod with tears in their eyes.

Qian Chuanzi pulled Zhu Xuefeng over and introduced him in a low voice. The yard was too big and needed people to take care of it. These people all had household registrations and were familiar with the roads. The yard looked good and they were waiting for Zhu Xuefeng to make a decision.

These three little girls were bought by the former landlord after careful selection. After they were liberated, they were adopted and now they are abandoned. You can imagine how they feel now.

There are no relatives at all, and now I have no one to rely on. I can’t carry anything on my shoulders or lift it with my hands. I am not old enough to go out to find work. If I are kicked out, I can imagine the outcome.

What a waste, buying a yard and giving four mouths away. Zhu Xuefeng was a little irritated. As long as these four people go out today, everyone nearby will probably know that Zhu Xuefeng bought the yard tomorrow. After all, his household registration is here. If you have any difficulties, you will definitely go to the street office.

Zhu Xuefeng glared at Qian Chuanzi fiercely. Qian Chuanzi handled this matter too uncleanly. He had been quick and agile for a long time, but this time he stumbled. There was nothing he could do, and the original landlord ran away.

Pull the money string away and ask in a low voice.

"Aren't you afraid that they will roll up the things in the yard and run away."

"That's not possible. I handled all their procedures. The current household registration and supply books are all there. I can’t run away without your words.”

You were still causing trouble. It would be great if you ran away. Nothing would happen. It was really troublesome. No, luckily you didn't run away, otherwise the yard would have been exposed. This matter can't appear in the open now.

Zhu Xuefeng calmed down and thought about it carefully. The yard was too big and it did need someone to take care of it. There was no problem with accommodation for four people.

The old man can also cook for the carpenters after he stays, but what about these little girls? It doesn’t take so many people to cook.

Forget it, let them look after the yard for now, and then find a suitable livelihood for them later. I have no obligation to support them.

"You three, take me to the study room and let's have a good chat." After saying that, he ignored Old Man Xie and Qian Chuanzi who were staying aside.

Follow the big girl to the study. Everything in the study is gone, not even a book is left. The things and furniture are neat, and there is no clutter on the floor. It should have been cleaned.

The three girls' service was in place. They made the tea and put the cushions in a while. They waited for Zhu Xuefeng to sit down, then closed the door and knelt down in front of Zhu Xuefeng.

"Master, please don't drive us away. We can do anything. We can clean the yard and tidy up the garden..."

This is to compete with old man Xie for a job. , Although Zhu Xuefeng didn't say anything, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the old man Xie would most likely stay.

"Stop it, stop it, get up and talk, I don't care for idlers, you should tell me, what do you know?"

The three of them were still kneeling, a little scared, Zhu Xuefeng's tone was not good, and the future was uncertain.

"Master, we, we can also play ditties, hui, hui..."

The two younger ones were too nervous to speak. Zhu Xuefeng pointed at the three girls and said Toned down a bit.

"Don't call me master, just call my boss. Get up. I have to ask you something. If I don't know your capabilities, how can I arrange for you."

The three of them looked at each other. Look, the big girl stood up and stood next to her. She was smarter and answered Zhu Xuefeng's questions proactively.

The eldest girl is called Gan Dongting, fifteen years old, and the other two are twin sisters named Du Qianyun and Du Qianyu, fourteen years old. The three of them have learned how to serve others since they were young.

The front room manager is very strict and has almost no chance to go out of the yard. He has learned how to read and write, and has also learned a lot of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He can barely cook, and he can't do the usual cooking. They do.

"How have you been these past few days? Who cooks for you? Is there still food in the yard?"

"Old, boss, there is still some food in the yard. My former boss didn't bring it. Let’s go, I was in charge in the past, but we’ve been having fun with Uncle Xie these days.”

"Okay, let's talk about your business."

Gan Dongting is usually responsible for the management of the miscellaneous people in the yard. The two sisters are responsible for taking care of the family members in the backyard. They say it is adoption, but in fact it has always been a master-servant relationship. .

The three of them are too unclear about the current situation outside. They only know that if they leave this yard, they will be helpless. They will become rootless duckweeds and will starve to death.

Zhu Xuefeng roughly understood that these three people had no ability to survive, but fortunately they all had serious household registrations. This matter had to be carefully planned. Zhu Xuefeng had a headache, remembering that the money string was still outside.

"You two wait for me, Daya comes with me."

"Qian Chuanzi, don't you have all the supplies for these four people? During this period, life purchases are made by You are responsible for counting the money yourself. You have to teach Da Ya, okay!”

Qian Chuanzi was feeling uneasy. He originally thought it was a good thing, but Brother Feng didn’t seem to be happy about it and thought it was a big trouble. Frustrated, now that Zhu Xuefeng had given him the opportunity, he readily accepted it.

Zhu Xuefeng avoided the big girl and whispered to Qian Chuanzi.

“Let’s see if there are any tailors on the street and see if we can accept them as apprentices. Be careful about this.”

Let Qian Chuanzi go home first and then turn around to make arrangements. Old man, please move to the gatehouse in the outer courtyard to guard it first. Uncle Xie will still be able to use it to cook a meal in the future.

"You said just now that you have studied opera? Have you ever practiced martial arts?"

"I studied it for two years, but then I stopped practicing."

I tried the skills of the three of them, but nothing happened. No, I just learned to be a bit showy, but the flexibility of my body is pretty good, I guess I am still young and have laid the foundation.

I can't send them to school. At this age, no school is suitable for them, but I can't just sit idle. People have trouble when they are idle, so they have to be kept busy.

Why don't you go to a sports school and train for a few years? Maybe you can be a helper in the future, especially Da Ya. He should have some management experience. With a high coach here, it should be okay to learn some basics. There is no requirement to be a formal student.

But how to talk to Coach Gao? You can't just say that you bought a yard and gave it to the three girls. You can't hide it at all. And you can find some way to make a living for them in the future. If the tailor can accept it, Just be an apprentice.
