Chapter 37 Hiring people

Seeing that everyone was dug out, everyone had time to have lunch.

The multigrain pancakes are filled with eggs and wild onions, and Shen Qingyu is willing to add oil, so they taste particularly delicious.

Everyone was full of praise and in the mood to gossip.

"Qingyu, I heard that Changshou and Cuixi are helping you with your work. Do you still need help here?"

Shen Qingyu was about to answer when he heard Li Zheng stop shouting: "Why are you crying? All three of your family survived. Where is Da Song? You are satisfied!"

"I...I..." Widow Xiao's cry stopped abruptly.

Everyone was attracted by this sentence and looked at Shen Dasong.

He seemed to have had his energy drained away, and he was sitting there like a clay or wood sculpture.

Li Zheng was well-informed, but he thought to himself at first glance: Does this mean he has no intention of living anymore?!

"What are you still squatting for? What's wrong with my wife and children hanging out to dry like this? Where can I find clean clothes? Let me change them and wash them."

"I have a thin coffin for the elderly at home. I'll give it to you to take care of things...then you can go work and earn money to pay off your debts."

Li Zheng made arrangements one by one, and everyone who had rested for a while started to move again.

Shen Qingyu looked at the still rainy sky, feeling worried, and approached the front: "Should we also take a look at other mountains around here? Don't do it again..."

Li Zheng felt nervous, glanced at Shen Qingyu, and immediately arranged for people to go to the surrounding mountains to check.

The matter here came to an end, and Shen Qingyu went home.

The three children, led by Wen Che, are particularly well-behaved and are writing.

When they saw Shen Qingyu coming back, the three children came around and grabbed Shen Qingyu and wouldn't let go!

"mother!"

"Mom, are you done?"

"Mom, we are very obedient..."

Shen Qingyu could feel that the deceased children were all known to the triplets, one of them was of the same age, and they were afraid.

"Haha... Mom is here and will be with you these days."

Xiao Yunqi entered Cheng Ping's room.

Cheng Ping smiled as soon as he saw Xiao Yunqi: "Brother Xiao, are you going to save someone?"

Xiao Yunqi nodded with a sullen face and placed two pieces of grain cakes in front of him: "Eat it for lunch."

Cheng Ping struggled to grab it and started eating it. After taking two bites, he suddenly said: "Sister-in-law's hands are so soft."

Xiao Yunqi grabbed Cheng Ping's wrist.

There was a "click" sound, and Cheng Ping screamed, "Ouch! My hand..."

Xiao Yunqi said coldly: "You are looking for death!"

He actually dared to take advantage of Shen Qingyu and even pinched her wrists blue.

what!

Shen Qingyu came in after hearing the sound, and Cheng Ping shouted exaggeratedly: "Sister-in-law, my hand is broken, please pick it up for me. Oops..."

Just don’t say it was Xiao Yunqi who did it.

After Shen Qingyu checked, he glanced at Xiao Yunqi and went to his room angrily.

After closing the door, I spent five taels of silver from the cabinet (space mall) to buy Xiao Yunqi's same medicated oil for bruises, and also bought a pair of plywood and sent it to the thatched house.

Cheng Ping smiled gratefully: "Thank you, sister-in-law..."

"You're welcome. Counting the last time you pinched my wrist, the medicine money totals eleven taels of silver. Do you have any money?"

Cheng Ping was shocked: "Ah?"

"You are Xiao Yunqi's friend, not mine. You have been in my house for so long. If you don't have money, it doesn't matter..."

Cheng Ping's heart fell back into his stomach again, and his face was full of gratitude: "It's better to be sister-in-law, thank you sister-in-law..."

"If you don't have money and you need my treatment for an injury in the future, I will use your horse to pay off the debt and your medical expenses will be deducted from there."

After Shen Qingyu finished speaking, he threw the splint and medicine into Xiao Yunqi's hands: "You get them for him." He turned around and went out.

Done!

Playing offline.

Cheng Ping looked at Xiao Yunqi with a pale face.

Xiao Yunqi smiled maliciously: "Come, Brother Cheng, I will bandage you..."

"Ouch!" Cheng Ping's scream echoed through the sky.

Shen Qingyu was not idle either, Li Zheng came looking for her.

"Da Song is a real person, and Widow Xiao is also a good person. I was thinking if you have any free space here, let them live in it first. It would be better if you can hire them to do some work..."

Li Zheng was chattering, and he wanted to tell Shen Qingyu two things.

Shen Dasong didn't want to live anymore, so he had to find something to do for him so that he wouldn't be distracted.

Widow Xiao had no place to live and no rice to cook with her two children. She wanted to ask Shen Qingyu if she could give them a way to survive.

Shen Qingyu was a little curious: "Uncle Li Zheng, if I have nothing to do here, how are you going to settle them?"

Li Zheng frowned: "If it doesn't work out, I'll let Da Song live in my cowshed first. I'll force him to pay me back the money for the coffin and let him do things to make money. It should be better after a while..."

"What about Widow Xiao?"

"Your uncle and his wife's family have moved into the town. Aren't there still two empty houses? Ask them to tidy up and move in first..."

Shen Qingyu felt comfortable: This was the second way he had thought of, and he did not have to kidnap himself morally.

After thinking about it, Shen Qingyu nodded: "There is a patient in my thatched house, who is... the benefactor of the child's father. Dasong can live with him, and can help me water the bean sprouts at night. We are in charge of the food, and if you have a lot to do

, I will give him some wages."

"Oh, this is great!" Li Zheng was very happy after he solved Shen Dasong!

"That widow Xiao..."

Shen Qingyu spread her hands: "I need a lot of sauerkraut here. If she is willing, she can grow vegetables and make sauerkraut and sell it to me. It should be enough for her family to eat."

"That's it, that's it..." Li Zheng left happily.

Shen Qingyu entered Cheng Ping's house again: "I found a companion for you to live with."

Cheng Ping was confused: "Ah?"

"His house just collapsed..."

After some explanation, Shen Qingyu left the room.

Cheng Ping suspected: Xiao Yunqi wanted to find someone to monitor him.

But he has no evidence.

Everyone was poor, and it was an extraordinary period, so the funeral was kept simple, just dig a hole and bury it.

When Shen Dasong came over, he had already changed into clean patched clothes, and his face was silent: "Sister Qingyu, what do I do? Which room do I live in?"

Shen Qingyu first told him where to sleep, and then told him how to water the bean sprouts.

Shen Dasong agreed, and then said: "I'm really out of energy today, can you let me take a nap first?"

"No problem." Shen Qingyu was not unreasonable.

Shen Dasong entered Cheng Ping's room, got into bed and fell asleep.

"Huh... ga..."

"Huh... ga..."

Shen Dasong's snoring was earth-shattering, with ups and downs.

Cheng Ping stared at the thatched roof, despairing: This snoring is like thunder, how can he sleep in the future?

Could it be that Xiao Yunqi wanted to kill himself here?

Fortunately, when it got dark, Shen Dasong stopped snoring: he woke up and looked straight at the roof.

So fucking scary!

Cheng Ping felt even more upset.



The next morning, Shen Qingyu got up early and entered the bean sprout room. Xiao Yunqi was already waiting by the bean sprout bucket.

Today is an important day: I need to pick up bean sprouts and sell them in Fucheng!
