Chapter 23 Jia Yun

"hiring?"

Jia Qiang did not expect that Aunt Chun would be so enterprising. He thought about it, shook his head and said, "Of course we can recruit people, but now is not the time."

Aunt Chun asked in confusion: "Now is not the time? Why is this?"

Jia Qiang just smiled and repeated: "It's not the time yet." But she didn't explain the reason.

Naturally, he couldn't say that with his uncle's family's management ability, he really couldn't take care of several branches, and trouble would inevitably arise.

If you can't make a lot of money and cause a lot of trouble, it's better not to open it temporarily.

His previous invitation to Jia Yun to join the group was not out of charity...

But Aunt Chun said anxiously: "Then is the right time. The business is so good right now. If you don't strike while the iron is hot, you may not even be able to eat hot shit in the future!"

Hearing such simple words, Jia Qiang silently put down her chopsticks, paused, and said softly: "I mainly don't want my uncle and aunt to be too tired. The good days will be long in the future, and there will be many opportunities to sit at the cashier. You guys

If your body and bones are broken by exhaustion early on, wouldn’t it be a small gain but a big gain? As long as you have enough money for now, don’t worry, we will be able to recruit people soon.”

When Aunt Chun saw Jia Qiang's handsome and handsome face, which was full of seriousness, and her pair of calm and steady red phoenix eyes, for some reason, her usual energy of yelling and cursing was lost, and she became depressed.

Somewhat discouraged, he said angrily: "Okay, it's all your business, so you don't have to worry, and we don't have to worry about it."

Liu Da Niu said angrily: "Mom, what are you talking about? Qiang'er has a filial piety. He knows that you are tired. Today, he specially asked me to go to Li's cloth shop to pull out several feet of good cloth for each person in the family, and make two clothes for each person.

Nice clothes.”

When Aunt Chun heard this, she said angrily: "You are so old and dishonest, how can you make new clothes?" Even so, her face looked better after all, but she still couldn't stop talking.

Even if it was Jia Qiang who provided the money, to Aunt Chun, who had lived a hard life for half her life, this was still the waste of money by a prodigal.

Listening to Aunt Chun's nagging accusations, Liu Da Niu protected her, Liu Laoshi remained silent, Tieniu's honest and honest smile attracted fire, and he was scolded because he consumed the most cloth...

Feeling the atmosphere of this down-to-earth and ordinary family life, Jia Qiang raised her head and looked at the bright moon in the sky, with a faint smile on her lips, and softly chanted: "Today's people don't see the ancient moon, but this month once shined on the ancients."

People in ancient times and today are like water flowing, and they look at the bright moon together like this."

When Tieniu heard it, although he didn't understand what it meant, he always felt that Jia Qiang seemed to be feeling very unhappy and sad when she read these two lines of poetry.

But when he looked at Jia Qiang, he saw a smile on her face again. It was really strange...

Tieniu Niu's eyes were blank, and he shook his head. He held his son Shitou, who was babbling, with one hand. He chewed the sheep bones that had been bitten into pieces, savored the fatness of the sheep's tail, and listened to the pain of his old mother-in-law.

Scolding, laughing and laughing, I feel that my life has reached its peak...



"Hey, who are you looking for?"

The next morning, Jia Qiang, who had been doing homework for two hours, had just walked out of the Chuihua Gate to the front yard to stretch her muscles and get some air. She was obviously startled when she heard the exclamation of her cousin Liu Da Niu from the direction of the door.

Liu Laoshi, Aunt Chun and Tieniu went to work at the stall early in the morning before dawn. There were only Jia Qiang, Liu Da Niu and their one-year-old puppy at home.

When she heard the noise, Jia Qiang frowned slightly and picked up a wooden stick leaning against the wall. Although it was better than nothing, if there was a real crisis, she could still give it a desperate blow.

But when he walked to the door and saw the person outside, he felt relieved and said, "Brother Yun, why are you here?"

The young man with a slender figure and a long face at the door is none other than Jia Yun, brother of the Jia Qiang clan.

Seeing Jia Yun, Jia Qiang was not surprised but secretly happy.

In the Red Mansion, there are really not many good men among the Jia family.

Among the few good people, Jia Yun should be the only one who knows both filial piety and kindness, as well as being smart and talented.

Therefore, Jia Qiang did not hesitate to receive this young man who "knows the basics" warmly.

In this world, blood-related relatives are the most dangerous, but they may also be the most reliable.

Seeing that Jia Qiang did not look at him seriously like before, Jia Yun guessed that maybe Jia Qiang had changed her temper due to the accident, and she also smiled warmly and said: "Brother Qiang, didn't you tell me that there was a job?

What to do? Nowadays, the family is really having a hard time, and my mother is not in good health. Brother, I can only come to seek refuge with you. I originally agreed that you would wait for me for three days, but now I have postponed it a little. It is all my fault. I will go first.

I’ll give you an apology…”

Having said that, I bowed before me.

Jia Qiang stepped forward first to stop her and said with a smile: "Although I am no longer a member of the Jia family and have inherited the Jia family tree, there is still a trace of connection between us in the blood. You and I are brothers, and you are older than me. How can we be brothers?"

?As for the three-day appointment..."

Before Jia Qiang finished speaking, Liu Da Niu on the side said: "Qiang'er, Mom has asked you to recruit people several times, but you still don't do it. It makes Mom unhappy, just to wait for your brother of the same race?"

Jia Qiang secretly gave a thumbs up, nodded and said with a smile: "I don't worry about using outsiders after all." Then she said to Liu Da Niu: "Cousin, go get six taels of silver first."

Then she said to Jia Yun, who was already grateful and overwhelmed, "I guess you are at the end of your rope, otherwise you wouldn't come here. I know your situation. My little income from starching and washing clothes for others can barely sustain your livelihood.

But if something happens unprepared, it will inevitably lead to financial difficulties. I heard that my aunt is not feeling well, so I will give you three months' salary in advance, and you can take it back and take good care of her. Come back here in three days, and from now on

As long as you can endure hardships, and as long as you are diligent and studious, I will ensure that you will no longer have to worry about money and food, and I can also let my mother-in-law enjoy a peaceful life."

Jia Yun was really excited now. He nodded and said: "Brother Qiang, I believe you! Don't worry, I will work with you wholeheartedly from now on. If you have even the slightest bad intention, I was raised by your little maid."

In fact, the reason why he was so "gullible" was that he came here five days ago and inquired about the residence of Jia Qiang's family, but he did not rush to see them, but secretly observed them for several days.

Only then was it finally confirmed that Jia Qiang was really different from before. She was not a libertine, but really wanted to make something of her career.

It’s not that he is malicious and suspicious, it’s just that the impression Jia Qiang gave him before is that she is not a practical person...

He also has a widowed mother, so how dare he go astray and go astray?

Once he is injured, how will his mother live...

Five days of observation convinced him that Jia Qiang was at least doing serious business here...

Jia Qiang welcomed Jia Yun to the back house, and Jia Yun saw that this was actually a second-entry house with a hand-held verandah and a hanging flower door. She couldn't help but admired: "Brother Qiang, you are indeed born with wealth. I heard that you

When I left Dongfu, I didn't bring any money with me. Jia Qin and the others were still betting on when you would die. You went back to Dongfu to kowtow and apologize. I didn't expect that you would live in such a good house here..."

Jia Qiang smiled faintly and didn't say anything. Instead, she asked with a little curiosity: "Why did you come here today? Yesterday, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, both governments gave some gifts. You are not short of money, are you?"

There are a total of twenty houses after the second Duke of Rongning. Except for the eight houses sent by relatives in the capital, the rest are all in their original places.

However, over the past few decades or hundreds of years, the Eight Fangs of the Qin sect in Duzhong have continued to multiply, and now they have over a thousand members.

For four or five generations, the blood and family ties between each family are so weak that they are almost non-existent.

Most people, except for weddings and funerals within the clan, barely see each other once a year...

Among them, some live a relatively prosperous life, most live an ordinary life, and some live a very poor life.

Ningguo Mansion is the eldest house of the Jia clan, and the clan members are wealthy, let alone ordinary people, as long as they can survive.

As for those who are in dire straits and are really too poor to take the blame, then every New Year's Eve, the Rongning Mansion will take the opportunity to distribute some happy noodles to share their days.

Therefore, Jia Qiang has this question.

When Jia Yun heard this, her face turned pale for a while, and finally she shook her head and said with a bitter smile: "This year, the gifts are only some exquisite cakes and some rabbits and chickens, but some good things were also snatched away by Jia Qin and the others. People with four and five bedrooms

There are so many people, how can I win over them? Besides, I don’t want to be like a wild dog, fighting with my tribe for some cakes, chickens and rabbits..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jia Qiang nodded and said: "Needless to say, the second government has been at the top for many years, so why should we not eat minced meat? It doesn't matter if we don't want to, we can live on our own, why should we accept such food?"

Hearing this, Jia Yun nodded heavily with red eyes!

He swore that if this place was reliable and he could really make a living, then he would definitely make a career here and do something famous!
