The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family Chapter 143

Chapter 143 Destiny

Liu Ma smiled and responded, "Yes, of course. It's much better to do this on a cold day than washing people's clothes. I'm going to look for someone now. Master, do you want five people? Can two people do it?"

Liu Ma rubbed her hands and looked at Gu Huayu cautiously.

Seeing that there was something wrong in Liu Ma's words, Gu Huayu asked, "What's wrong?"

Liu Ma lowered her head and replied, "The man's surname is Zhang, in the house opposite our back door, and his name is Zhang Dongsheng.

 Zhang Dongsheng got a strange disease two years ago and cannot do anything. His family relies on his wife to wash clothes for people.

His daughter-in-law and the old slave are from the same family, also named Liu, and called Liu Zhi. There is a girl in the family who is as big as the boss, named Zhang Daya, and a seven-year-old son named Zhang Dazhuang.

 When it got dark yesterday, the old slave went to take out the garbage and saw Da Ya and Da Zhuang at the intersection.

 The old slave asked the siblings what they were doing at the intersection in the cold weather. Da Ya didn't say anything, Da Zhuang said to wait for his mother, saying that his mother went to the market to pick vegetables.

The old slave asked carefully and found out that the willow branches had not been harvested for several days. Alas, as the Chinese New Year is approaching, this family cannot afford three meals.

The boss is in need of manpower here. Can the neighbors in the street give the work to the mother-in-law?

The two sisters of Willow Branch also endured hardships. On a cold day, they had to soak their hands in cold water for most of the day when washing clothes for others. Their hands were sore from the frost. Alas! "

 After Liu Ma came to Su Xin Rouge Shop, she always walked in and out through the back door, often coming face to face with willow branches.

 We became familiar with each other after going back and forth. After learning about Liu Zhi's situation, Liu's mother sympathized with Liu Zhi's experience from the bottom of her heart.

Now when I see that my boss is looking for someone to do some work, I immediately think of Willow Branch.

Gu Huayu nodded and said: "Okay, you go and tell them, one article and two paper bags, see if they are willing to do it."

Gu Huayu has always been soft-hearted and cannot bear to hear such miserable and helpless things. The wages of one penny and five paper bags became one penny and two paper bags.

"Thank you, my boss. My boss is kind-hearted. Liuzhi and the others must be very grateful to my boss." After hearing Gu Huayu's words, Liu Ma bowed her knees to Gu Huayu with joy, "I will call them over now."

 After saying that, Liu Ma walked quickly to the back door.

 After a while, Liu Ma pushed open the door and came in with Liu Zhi and Zhang Daya.

Liu Zhi was wearing two single coats with several patches on them. Her hands were tucked into her sleeves, her body was trembling slightly, and her face was a little blue due to the cold wind.

Zhang Daya was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket that didn't fit her. The jacket was too big, so she tied it with a strip of cloth around her waist to make it fit more closely.

 The sallow and thin face looked at Gu Huayu secretly with a pair of big, frightened eyes.

Liu Ma bent her knees and said: "My boss, these are Sister Liu Zhi and her daughter Daya. Sister, Daya, come quickly and give me a present for my boss."

Liu Zhi took her daughter to the court and bowed her knees to Gu Huayu.

Seeing that the willow branches were trembling with cold, Gu Huayu said, "No need to be polite, just go and sit in the house."

Liu Ma greeted me with a busy smile: "Okay, okay, sit down in the room."

Gu Huayu entered the house, sat down at the top, and told Liu Ma: "Add another charcoal basin."

Liu Ma said yes again and again, took two steps back and turned around to go out.

Gu Huayu pointed to the chair next to her and said to Liuzhi and her daughter, "Sit down."

Liu Zhi bent her knees and thanked her, pulling her daughter to sit on the chair tremblingly.

Gu Huayu looked at the reserved mother and daughter, without saying much, she directly picked up the paper on the table and said to them: "I need to make some paper bags here.

 I will do it once and you will learn it carefully. If it is done successfully, it will cost two for one penny, and the accounts will be settled every day, as much as the work is done. "

Willow Branch nodded repeatedly: "Okay!"

Gu Huayu looked at the mother and daughter and said, "You can sit closer."

Liu Zhi and Zhang Daya moved their chairs forward, Liu Zhi sat down, and Zhang Daya simply stood.

Gu Huayu held the paper in her hand and folded it while speaking. She spoke very slowly and acted slowly, explaining the steps one, two and three.

At the end, Gu Huayu asked: "Did you remember it? How many steps are there?"

 The mother and daughter nodded at the same time, and Zhang Daya replied: "It takes a total of six steps to go back to the master's house."

Gu Huayu nodded, took two pieces of paper from the table and handed them to the mother and daughter, "You guys try it."

Zhang Daya looked at Gu Huayu, looked at Liu Zhi, and reached out to take the paper from Gu Huayu's hand.

Gu Huayu looked at Da Ya's swollen and shiny hands and encouraged: “Don't be nervous, you'll be ready to make two by yourself.”

Willow Zhi leaned forward and said, "Thank you, boss."

Gu Huayu was watching from the side, and when he saw what they had done wrong, he corrected it. "That's not the case here. You have to turn back and stick it here with glue. Yes, that's it."

Liu Ma came in with a charcoal basin and saw Gu Huayu teaching Liu Zhi and her daughter step by step. She put down the charcoal basin and came over, standing by the side to follow her example.

 Liu Zhi and her daughter learned it carefully and were skillful with their hands. After a while, they were able to complete it on their own.

 Gu Huayu took a closer look at the finished product and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, it's well done. Just do it like this. Don't be sloppy. I'll come to inspect the goods when the time comes. By the way, I can take care of your lunch."

Liu Zhi hurriedly put down his work, stood up and bowed deeply to Gu Huayu, "Thank you, boss. I and my daughter will do their best to make every bag, and will never cheat or pass off inferior goods as good ones.

The slave family is very grateful to the master for giving the slave family the opportunity to make money, and it is true that they can't hide it. The slave family has not received any work for several days. "

Liu Zhi said with a choked voice as he wiped his tears with his frostbitten hands.

Zhang Daya saw A Niang crying, silently stepped forward and grabbed the corner of Liu Zhi's clothes, raised his head and looked at Liu Zhi with tears in his eyes, and called softly: "A Niang!"

Liu Zhi lowered his head and looked at his daughter beside him, raised his hand to touch her daughter's head, and said, "Da Ya, bow to my boss."

 Zhang Daya obediently bowed deeply to Gu Huayu. "Thank you, boss."

Gu Huayu stepped forward to help Zhang Daya up and said warmly: "No need to be polite, no need to waste time, just do it well."

Liuzhi and her daughter sat down to work. The room was warm, and Zhang Daya's frostbite began to itch, so she couldn't help but scratch it.

 Zhang Daya scratched her head twice and secretly raised her head to look at Gu Huayu.

Gu Huayu first turned her head away when Zhang Daya looked over, and went to the next room as if nothing had happened.

 Gu Huayu took out an ointment for reducing swelling and itching from the space, then returned to the previous room and handed the ointment to Liu Zhi, "Here, this ointment is very effective for frostbite. Open it and apply it directly on the frostbite."

Liu Zhi stood up, so moved that she didn't know what to say, so she kept bowing to Gu Huayu to thank her.

Gu Huayu nodded with a smile, turned around and left.

“I told you that Xiaodong's family is very nice, please believe it!

This is an easy job, so do it well, earn two bucks, and celebrate the New Year well.

 After the New Year, the weather gets warmer and it's easier to find things to do.

Sister, it's a difficult day, you have to endure it day by day, but you will eventually get through it. "Liu Ma's voice reached Gu Huayu's ears.

"Thank you, eldest sister, for taking care of our family." Willow's grateful voice came over.

“It's all about the boss. Sister, let me tell you, before I met the boss, I was sold many times, and I have never met such a good person as the boss.

 It is our good fortune to meet our employer. Let us thank our employer. "Liu Ma continued.

“My boss wants to thank me, and my eldest sister also wants to thank me. If it weren't for my eldest sister, how would we know our boss?

If the eldest sister hadn't said good things in front of the boss, how could the boss use us? "Willow Branch said.

Gu Huayu nodded slightly, this Liuzhi was really a person who knew how to live.

Gu Huayu went to the shop. There were not as many people in the shop as before. Gu Chengjuan was introducing the fragrant dew to others, and Gu Chengjiao was collecting money.

After seeing off the guests, Gu Chengjiao greeted Gu Huayu: "Xiaoyu, you're here."

Gu Huayu walked up to Gu Chengjiao, looked down at her hands, and asked, "Is everything okay?"

Gu Chengjiao raised her hand, opened it and moved it, "Well, I can feel comfortable now."

Gu Huayu asked: "Do you feel sore and numb?"

Gu Chengjiao touched her ring finger and little finger, "These **** of both hands are a little numb, but the others don't feel numb."

Gu Huayu took Gu Chengjiao's hand and looked at it carefully for a while, then said: "The peripheral nerves have not recovered yet. They need to take care of themselves for a while. Try not to do heavy work."

Gu Chengjiao nodded and said, "I understand."

After finishing speaking, Gu Chengjiao asked in a low voice: "There was something wrong with Uncle Huang's shop. How is it? I heard about it yesterday and wanted to go over and have a look. Fuyu came to send a message and asked us not to go there."

Gu Huayu lowered her voice and said, "It was Uncle Huang who asked Fuyu to come over and deliver the message. Don't worry, everything has been taken care of. Leave the rest to the Yamen."

Gu Huayu didn't want to say more and pushed the matter to the Yamen.

 After experiencing what happened last time, Gu Chengjiao did not have a good impression of the Yamen and asked, "Is the Yamen reliable?"

Gu Huayu raised her head and looked at Gu Chengjiao and said, "Now it is the Prime Minister of Wang County who handles affairs on behalf of the county magistrate. He is quite reliable."

Gu Chengjiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."

 Someone came over to pay, and the two sisters stopped talking.

 After the guests left, Gu Huayu asked: "Will Zhang Wu come to the shop to make trouble again?"

Gu Chengjiao sighed and said, "Well, I've made trouble twice.

 The second time, we reported him to the police, and the people from the yamen took him back, beat him up, and then let him go.

These days, Zhang Wu has been wandering around the shop, and he doesn't dare to come in again.

 The honeysuckle was not in the shop. He didn't see the honeysuckle, and he seemed very unwilling to do so. This family is so shameless! "

Gu Chengjuan saw off the guests, turned around and came over, saying, "Xiaoyu, do we want to teach Zhang Wu a lesson?"

Gu Huayu shook her head, "It's fine if Lonicera doesn't show up. Don't pay attention to him. If he breaks in, go to the official and ask the official to teach him a lesson. Let him compensate us according to the price for whatever he damages."

Gu Chengjuan said: "Lonicera has been hiding at home. It's so frustrating."

Gu Chengjiao sighed: "I don't know who told the Zhang family that Lonicera is in our shop!"

Gu Chengjuan snorted and said, "Who else? Isn't it the talkative Wang Xiu'e. She is the only one in our family who likes to talk about family affairs everywhere. It annoys her to death."

Gu Chengjiao raised her hand and patted Gu Chengjuan, scolding: "Don't say that without any evidence."

Gu Chengjuan curled her lips, looked down at her nails, and stopped talking.

Gu Huayu looked at the shelves next to her and changed the topic, "Is this all the fragrance left?"

Gu Chengjuan looked up and answered, "Well, there are only a few bottles left, and they will be sold until tomorrow at most. Xiaoyu, can you make some more?"

Gu Huayu thought for a while and said: "This season, the plum blossoms are in full bloom, so we can do some things. However, the twenty-sixth family is moving, and we all have to go back. I'm afraid we won't have time to do it."

 Let's talk about the fragrant dew later. I'll go to Sixi Shop to see my brother. You guys should be busy. I'll come back later. "

Gu Chengjuan asked hurriedly: "Xiaoyu, are you coming over for lunch?"

 Gu Huayu shook her head, "I'm having lunch at my eldest brother's place, and I'll come over for dinner."

When Gu Huayu came out of the shop, she saw Zhang Wu holding a big cake in his hand. He was biting the big cake and looking towards the shop from time to time.

Gu Huayu looked at Zhang Wu and walked straight forward, thinking about how to remove this **** as he walked.

Unconsciously, Gu Huayu walked to the door of Zuixian Tower.

Gu Huayu felt a black shadow passing by in front of her eyes. She instinctively took a step back and looked over. She saw a man lying on the ground. Two waiters clapped their hands at the door and said, "Crazy woman, you want to have **** even if you don't have money." Eat in a restaurant? Get away from me and don't be an eyesore here, otherwise I won't let you go easily next time."

After Gu Huayu saw the face of the lying person clearly, she secretly smiled in her heart. Where in life do we not meet each other? He knelt down and joked in a low voice: "Great Immortal Stinky Feet, smell your stinky feet and come to Zuixian Tower? You tell me, we have met again! Isn't it a fate?"

When the waiter saw Gu Huayu talking to this person, he said to Gu Huayu, "Do you know this woman?"

Girl, please take her away quickly. We can't do business with her lying here. "

Gu Huayu turned to look at the waiter, then looked back at the woman.

The woman recognized Gu Huayu, raised her hands to cover her face, and cried, "Daughter, they bullied me too much. I want to go to eat, but they think I am poor and won't give me food."

 Daughter, do I look very poor? Am I someone who can't afford the money? My dear daughter, what can be tolerated by scholars? "

While crying, the woman opened a gap between her fingers and blinked at Gu Huayu.

Gu Huayu didn't expect the woman to come out like this, but she still helped the woman up cooperatively, then turned around and argued with the waiter.

"Go and ask your shopkeeper to come out. I want your shopkeeper to tell you something. Why do you throw people out like this?"

The two waiters looked at each other. The taller one rubbed his hands and complained in a low voice to the shorter one: "I said you can't do that. Look, are you in trouble?"

After hearing the tall man's complaint, Gu Huayu didn't wait for the short man to speak, and while patting the woman's body, she said, "Tell me, what's wrong with my sister? You're going to treat her like this!"

 Is she dressed shabbily? Or did she eat in the store without paying? Or is this Zuixian Tower only for dignitaries, and common people are not worthy to enter? "

The onlookers listened to Gu Huayu's questioning, and people with good intentions began to echo, "Open the door to do business, pay attention to being harmonious and making money, how can you dislike poverty and love wealth?"

“That is, the poor also pay money to eat, and they don't eat for free, so you can't be too snobbish.”

Gu Huayu asked in a low voice: "Are you satisfied with this? Or do you want to make a big fuss and destroy the restaurant?"

The woman whispered: "Is it really a smash? No, I'm so poor. It's almost okay, the restaurant is really a smash, and I don't have any money to compensate."

After saying that, the woman still covered her face and cried loudly: "Daughter, this store is too bullying. Let's eat in another store, okay? We have money, and we won't spend it at his house."
