Chapter 86: Someone comes to ask Qin An for escort
It was probably too crowded and he didn't move. Qin An was afraid that Su Yan would be squeezed, so he turned his back slightly to her, squatted down and said, "Come up."
Looking at the past, Su Yan was still a little embarrassed because the children were being carried on their backs, but Qin An didn't care about it. Seeing that she didn't move, he directly picked her up on his back.
After a while, the crowd became more and more crowded. Qin An was stepped on several times, but he ignored Su Yan and strode out of the crowd.
When he reached the open space, he put Su Yan down and said in a low voice, "You weren't squeezed, were you?"
Su Yan shook her head and looked down to see the footprints on his boots, "Brother Qin, are your feet okay?"
Qin An lowered his head and reached out to pat the back of his shoe, "It's okay, I have thick skin."
He looked up at the restaurant, which was already full of people, "Let's go home for dinner and pick up some wild garlic on the way."
"Okay." Su Yan didn't want to eat in the town. There were so many people and it would be too late to go home after eating.
The two of them took their time on the road and pulled a lot of wild garlic. Qin An also picked up a nest of bird eggs. It was already dusk when they got home.
After dinner, it was already dark, and he obviously didn't do anything, but this was the best New Year's Eve that Qin An has ever had.
After the New Year, Qin An started to get busy, either going hunting in the mountains or making wooden hairpins at home, and occasionally going to the fields to splash manure.
Regarding Su Yan's crab raising, she didn't let Qin An go to the ditch to catch crabs. The weather wasn't warm yet, so she would rather spend more money than Qin An catch the cold.
In this job, she first found Goudan's mother. When she went to her house, she was hanging clothes.
"Sister, I have a job, which is to catch crabs in the river ditch. It costs fifty cents a day."
This fucking bitch has never even heard of it, so he subconsciously said: "Is there such a good thing?"
Su Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said seriously: "I'm serious, but it's a cold day and it's easy to catch cold when you go into the water. Do you think your mother's side can do it?"
"Okay, why not? It's just going into the water."
Goudan, what he said is indeed true. The weather is so bad that there are still villagers working in the fields.
"Okay, just tell them, you can come and catch it when you have time, or you can catch it from their side, and if you catch it, just dump it in the dug field."
Su Yan didn't explain too much, she would still have to explain some things when the time comes.
After Su Yan left, Goudan's mother wiped her hands and hurriedly ran to the field. When she saw Goudan sitting on the ground, she immediately yelled: "Goudan!"
Goudan quickly got up and ran away smartly. Goudan was too lazy to pay attention to him and ran to Jiang Caifu, "The Qin family is alive again. Catch crabs. It's fifty cents a day. Do you want a piece of it?"
"Fifty coins for catching crabs?" Jiang Caifu said in surprise.
"That's not true. I don't know what to do." Goudan Damang saw the mud on his collar and reached out to pat him.
Jiang Caifu glanced around and kissed her, "I'll go and save up the money to buy you a hairpin. I'll buy you whatever style you want."
…
Here, Su Yan returned to the yard, and Qin An had just cleaned up the sawdust in the yard, "I will buy bricks and come back tomorrow."
"good."
Su Yan nodded, then thought of something and said, "Brother Qin, pick some river sand and put it in the pond in the afternoon so that you can raise crabs."
Qin An said "Hmm", glanced at her clothes, and frowned slightly, "Why are you wearing so little?"
"It was hot just now."
Su Yan pointed to the room and immediately said: "I'll put it on."
Qin An was worried that she would catch cold, so he said with a straight face: "The weather hasn't warmed up yet, so don't take off and put on again, put on and take off again."
"Okay, Brother Qin."
Su Yan glanced at him with a smile.
Qin An's cheeks suddenly became hot, and his stern face suddenly softened.
Su Yan put on an extra coat and came out, tugging at the corner of her clothes, "Brother Qin, let's go to the vegetable patch and pick up some vegetables and come back to eat."
"Okay." Qin An walked to the kitchen to get a backpack. Just as they were about to go out, they saw two big men coming this way.
Qin An subconsciously stood in front of Su Yan. Wu Sheng, a big man in gray clothes, looked at Qin An and said with some satisfaction: "He looks quite strong."
Another man, Huang Zhongyi, who was slightly shorter than him, also looked at Qin An, "He is quite strong."
Qin An frowned and turned around to signal Su Yan to go in. Su Yan thought the debt collector was coming again, but her expression did not change.
Before she could speak, Wu Sheng quickly raised his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, we are either bad guys or we are looking for this brother to do some work."
"Is it convenient to go inside to talk?"
Qin An pursed his lips and said in a cold voice, "It's inconvenient."
Seeing that he was highly vigilant, Huang Zhongyi quickly explained his purpose, "Brother, don't get me wrong. We are serious people. I just heard others say that you often hunt. We are escorts. There has been a lot of work recently and we don't have enough manpower. We are looking for people everywhere."
"
"You should know Shunping Escort Agency, we are from Shunping Escort Agency." Wu Sheng gave him the waist card.
Qin An took it and took a look. There was the word "Shunping Escort Agency" on it. The guard on his face became a little less guarded and he said back to him, "I won't go."
Wu Sheng was still a little surprised. After all, many men wanted to go to the escort agency. "We can go to the escort agency for at least fifty taels of silver."
"Not going."
If Qin An was alone, he would go, but there was Su Yan at home, and he would not let her be alone at home.
"Little brother, if you go with the escort, you won't have to worry about it for half your life. That's your wife behind you. If you go with the escort, you can buy her some nice clothes."
Huang Zhongyi glanced behind him, Qin An's brows were furrowed, his face was full of displeasure, and his voice was a little fierce, "I'm not going."
"Why are you so stupid, little brother?" Huang Zhongyi saw the young woman behind him before he finished speaking. She had fair skin, a delicate face, and a pair of extremely attractive eyes.
Now I understand why this little brother didn't go. With such a beautiful woman at home, no one would feel at ease if she left.
Huang Zhongyi coughed and quickly looked away, "If you are worried about your family, don't worry, there will be someone from our Shunping Escort Agency watching over your family."
"You can get eighty taels of silver from the escort we paid for you. We are not just anyone. We walked through more than a dozen villages before we saw such a strong man like you."
"I don't know what you are like."
Wu Sheng took the words and said: "Our escort agency often has work to do. If you do well this time, we will look for you next time. One trip can last up to half a month. You can earn dozens of taels of silver and make your family live well. That's not true.
Is it a good thing?"
"Little lady, just tell me, is this life worth it?"
Su Yan did not agree with Qin An going as a escort. It would definitely be dangerous. She said, "If he says he won't go, he won't go."
When they met for the first time, both of them disagreed. Wu Sheng and Huang Zhongyi looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.
After a stalemate, Wu Sheng thought of something and said, "You don't have children yet. Once you have a baby, your family will need money for everything. Even if you can hunt, little brother, you can't afford to send your child to school."
"What can children do these days if they don't study? It's not like ours in those years, when they could just fill their stomachs."
