Escape from famine at the beginning: I use space to raise three cute babies
Chapter 86 Take in the little beggar
Xiang Jiuling saw the beggar guarding the door of their shop, so she went to get a clean bowl and filled some food for her.
The beggar looked up at her first, and then wolfed down his meal. He was very grateful to Xiang Jiuling. She had nothing else to repay, so he helped to greet the guests. However, the smell on her body was unpleasant, and many guests found it disgusting.
There was a lot of swearing there, which greatly affected the store's business.
Seeing this situation, Xiang Jiuling did not blame her, and tried her best to appease the guest, and then asked Qin Zhenzhen to take her to the back to take a shower and change clothes.
Through understanding, I learned that this girl was actually as miserable as Qin Zhenzhen, and she was a miserable person who lived by begging all day long.
Sometimes you get it, sometimes you don't. That's when you really have one meal but no one.
Without food, she could only starve, so her face was so thin that she looked even more pitiful than when Xiang Jiuling first saw Qin Zhenzhen.
Seeing her like this, Xiang Jiuling couldn't help but think of the people she met on the road who were fleeing famine. They were all just trying to eat and have nothing to do, especially women. It was even harder to survive in this world. After all, there were no restrictions on women.
The prejudice is so deeply ingrained that it cannot be changed.
After she thought about it, she discussed it with Wen Xi and decided to take the girl in.
Wen Xi has always let Xiang Jiuling make the decision on these matters. Anyway, their family now has food, drink and a place to live. It would not be a bad thing if he could help more people as he can.
"I...can I really stay here?"
Xiang Jiuling nodded: "But you have to help the store, you can't be lazy."
"It's natural."
The girl hurriedly responded, feeling extremely excited.
In the past, few people looked down upon her and didn't treat her as a human being. Even children would kick her when they saw her, as if she were a pest. She didn't understand what she had done wrong.
She never thought that she would be taken in by someone one day.
Next, the girl went to work without Xiang Jiuling opening her mouth.
She is very nimble with her hands and feet, and does things quickly and well. She wipes the table clean without any stains. She works hard without complaining and rushes to do all the dirty and tiring work. Basically, she has no time to spare.
Xiang Jiuling looked at it and was pleased but also wondered: "I see you are very nimble with your hands and feet. Why didn't you go to a restaurant to find something to do before?"
"Madam, you don't know that for a beggar like me, they only think it's bad luck and won't let me go in to work. When they saw me from afar, they chased me away with a broom. How can anyone be as kind-hearted as Madam?
I must work hard to repay my wife and her family."
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, presumably because she thought of those difficult days in the past.
Xiang Jiuling also understood how difficult it was for these poor people to survive, and sighed: "Okay, you don't have to think too much, just work here from now on. Although I don't have much ability, I can give you a bite."
Having enough to eat and a place to live.”
Moreover, it will get colder in the coming days. She, a girl, will either starve to death or freeze to death if she stays outside. It’s pitiful to think about it. Let’s just think of her as doing good deeds.
Sanni is a kind-hearted little girl. When she saw a newcomer coming into the house, she did not reject it. Instead, she said: "Yes, sister, you can stay here. Our food is delicious and it is all cooked by my mother.
Isn’t my mother great?”
What a greedy little cat, he is still thinking about food at this time.
Xiang Jiuling smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand to rub her little head, with a hint of endearment in his eyes: "Don't worry, I will make delicious food for you tonight."
As the days passed, the business of Xiang Jiuling's small shop was getting better and better.
Although the decoration is simple, it is delicious. Not only do they have a variety of stir-fries, but they also have beef noodles and shredded chicken noodles. The soup is made by Xiang Jiuling using pork ribs and the ingredients she exchanged from the system. The taste is the best in the market.
It's basically impossible to find it, so it's the only one.
Qin Zhenzhen and the others are very busy every day. They are tired, but they feel happy, especially when they see so many customers who come to the store every day, which proves that their store is booming, and they are happy to be busy anyway.
Especially for the girl who was just picked up, her life is getting better day by day. Not only does she have a comfortable and warm house to live in, she also has rich meals to eat every day, and she will never go hungry or cold again.
She felt increasingly grateful to Xiang Jiuling for taking her in. If it hadn't been for her, she would still be begging on the street, and she might even be looked down upon by others. She didn't know whether she could have survived this winter.
Therefore, she didn't need anyone to tell her that she was very fast at her job. She also remembered the tastes of her guests firmly and never made a mistake.
Xiang Jiuling was very satisfied with this, but there had to be a reason to take out the things she exchanged, otherwise it would be bad if someone discovered it, and Wen Xi was already suspicious, but he didn't say it explicitly.
She thought for a moment and finally came up with a solution.
In fact, she could have found a piece of wasteland on the barren mountains outside Beijing to grow food. In this way, all the things she redeemed from the system could be said to have been grown by her, which would save costs and allow her to promote them here.
More people can taste these delicious things.
If tomatoes didn't appear at this time, she could use the wasteland as a cover to plant them and promote them on a large scale in the future.
After Wen Xi heard about it, she felt that it was too hard for Xiang Jiuling. After all, she had to look after the store and open up wasteland, so she proposed to go to the barren mountain to help farm the land, but Xiang Jiuling shook her head and refused: "That's not necessary. Don't worry.
I'm asking someone to watch it. Besides, if you want to take part in the imperial examination, you should spend all your energy on your books. You don't have to worry about other things."
Hearing this, Wen Xi's heart moved. After a moment of silence, he nodded: "Well, if you have anything you need my help with, you must say it. Since you and I are husband and wife, everything must be discussed."
He also knew that she was eager to make money, but she just didn't want to open a gambling house again. After all, some things were more important than making money.
Hearing the word husband and wife, Xiang Jiuling raised her eyes and looked at him with a startled expression. This word was still a bit unfamiliar to her. Although the two of them had been husband and wife for a long time, she had not really felt it in her heart.
She regards herself as Wen Xi's wife, and she regards herself more as the mother of three children, fulfilling her responsibilities as a mother.
Realizing this, Wen Xi looked a little uncomfortable. Although they had been married for a long time, they had never had close contact with each other. And he was a man who didn't know anything, so it was difficult to do some things.
The roots of his ears were slightly red, and he coughed lightly before saying: "Okay, now that you have decided, let's do it. It's getting late, I'll go boil some hot water."
Don't rush with some things, you have to take your time!
