Chapter 171 Employment
"Rice flower?"
"Rice flower!"
Qin Xiaoliu looked at Daohua with confusion at first, then seemed to remember something, his eyes bulged, and he looked at Daohua with surprise: "Are you the little Daohua who beats human traffickers?!"
Seeing that he was thinking of her, Daohua nodded quickly.
"Wow~"
Seeing Daohua nodding, Qin Xiaoliu said "Wow" and burst into tears.
The more you cry, the more hurt you will be. The hysterical look is like a child lost in the dark who has found his relatives and wants to vent the panic and fear in his heart.
Looking at Qin Xiaoliu who was crying like a child, Daohua fell silent, just standing there, watching motionlessly, without urging or asking, silently waiting for him to vent the suppressed emotions in his heart.
Come out.
Behind her, Wang Man'er looked at Qin Xiaoliu, who was beaten with a bruised nose and face, with an empathic expression. Back then, his father lost the goods and was beaten half to death by his employer. The despair of finding no way out is still fresh in her memory.
p>
Later, her father died, leaving her alone. She had no choice but to sell herself.
God bless her, and she was lucky. She met a kind-hearted girl, who not only gave her a place to settle down, but also gave her food and clothing, so she no longer suffered from hunger and cold.
Li Xingnian and the other three people who got off the carriage saw Qin Xiaoliu crying so sadly, and they felt uncomfortable.
Qin Xiaoliu cried for a while, and his voice gradually became quieter, and then started to twitch.
Seeing his face covered with tears and runny nose, Daohua took out her handkerchief. Just when she was about to hand it to Qin Xiaoliu, Wang Maner stretched out her hand to stop him.
"Girl, use mine!"
How can a girl's handkerchief be given away to outsiders? As he said this, Wang Man'er stuffed his handkerchief into Qin Xiaoliu's hand.
Looking at the handkerchief in his hand, Qin Xiaoliu blushed a little, sobbed and wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, and then looked at Daohua with an embarrassed look.
Seeing that his mood had stabilized, Daohua asked, "Brother Xiao Liu, why are you here? Where are Uncle Qin and the others?"
When Qin Wu was mentioned, Qin Xiaoliu couldn't help but want to cry again, and said in a tearful tone: "Fifth brother and the others were arrested and are now in prison."
Daohua frowned: "Tell me carefully, what's going on?"
Qin Xiaoliu said with sobs: "The goods we transported were robbed, and the employer sued us to the government office. Because we could not compensate the employer for the loss, Brother Qin Wu and the others were arrested by the official. If we could not pay,
If you redeem your silver, Fifth Brother Qin and the others will be exiled to the frontier to work as coolies."
Hearing this, Daohua looked at her uncle and two brothers behind her.
Li Xingnian nodded: "There is indeed such a rule in the Yamen."
Daohua looked back at Qin Xiaoliu: "How much money do you owe?"
Qin Xiaoliu said with a grimace: "The goods plus compensation cost a thousand taels of silver! One thousand taels, so much silver, where can I get it together?"
As he said that, he looked at Daohua with tears in his eyes, then looked at the three Li Xingnian behind him, and then knelt down in front of Daohua with a 'pop' sound.
"Brother Daohua, no, little sister Daohua, if...if you can help us get through this difficulty, I, Brother Five, and the others will work hard to repay you."
Qin Xiaoliu mustered up the courage to say these words without much confidence in his heart.
First, they are not very familiar with Daohua, and they just escorted them for a while; second, one thousand taels of silver, which is not a small sum, although they look pretty well dressed, but they can get it all at once.
How can you get so much money?
Moreover, he also knew that it was very abrupt for him to ask so rashly.
But now he really has no other way. Brother Qin Wu and the others are the backbone of the family. If something happens to them, how will the whole family live?
In this case, he could only ask shamelessly.
Daohua stretched out her hand to help Qin Xiaoliu up: "If you have something to say, please stand up first."
Qin Xiaoliu looked at the rice flowers and stood up cautiously, his eyes full of anticipation.
Daohua was silent for a moment, then turned and walked towards Li Xingnian, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wenkai.
Seeing Daohua like this, Yan Wenxiu knew what she meant: "You want to help them?"
Daohua nodded: "If they hadn't sent me off, my grandmother, my third brother, and I might not have been able to reach Linyi County safely."
Li Xingnian frowned in disapproval. One thousand taels of silver was not a small number.
Daohua immediately added: "I don't just want to help them."
Li Xingnian raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Oh? What else do you have in mind?"
Daohua: "I want to hire them."
"Huh?"
Li Xingnian, Yan Wenxiu, and Yan Wenkai looked over at the same time.
Daohua: "Brother Xiaoliu and Uncle Qinwu are escorts who deliver goods. They both have good skills. I want to hire them to be the bodyguards of our home."
Hearing this, Yan Wenxiu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the family has bought some servants one after another, almost none of them know the skills and can take on the responsibility of security.
As he spent more and more time with people like the Young Prince and Dong Yuanxuan, he became more and more aware of the importance of having available people around him.
Then I heard Daohua continue speaking.
"The eldest brother, the third brother, and the fourth brother are studying at Wangyue Academy. Although there are servants around them, they are not as safe as those with skills. Every time they go out, my grandmother and mother are actually a little worried, for fear of something happening on the road.
."
"There is also my father's side. My father is now the governor of a state and is exposed to many things. It is difficult to guarantee that he will touch the interests of some people. He also needs the protection of a few people who know kung fu."
Listening to Daohua's slow analysis, Li Xingnian was really impressed by this ten-year-old niece.
Please take a look at the matter of the bodyguards in the nursing home, he thought. Even his younger sister and brother-in-law probably haven’t thought of this level yet.
Daohua looked at the obviously interested elder brother and asked with a smile: "What do you think, elder brother? If you also think it is feasible, then I will ask Brother Xiaoliu to see if he is willing?"
Yan Wenxiu looked at Li Xingnian: "What do you think, uncle?"
Li Xingnian was very satisfied that Yan Wenxiu consulted his opinion before making a decision, but he shook his head and said, "I can't get involved in your family's affairs. Of course, if you need money, I still have it here."
As soon as he heard this, Yan Wenxiu knew that his uncle agreed. After thinking about it, he asked Daohua: "Sister, what is their character like?"
Daohua thought about the behavior of Qin Wu and others: "I don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but I still have a kind heart in my heart."
Yan Wenxiu: "In that case, I'll just follow my eldest sister's advice."
Daohua smiled: "Okay, I'll ask Brother Xiaoliu right now."
Seeing Daohua coming back, Qin Xiaoliu's heart tightened and he looked at Daohua nervously.
"Brother Xiaoliu, my family wants to hire you to work, are you willing?"
Hearing this, Qin Xiaoliu was stunned: "What...are you doing?"
Daohua pointed at Yan Wenxiu and the two of them: "Those are my two brothers. They are studying abroad and often travel between home and college. They need someone to escort them. There is also my father..."
After hearing this, Qin Xiaoliu immediately nodded: "Yes, of course I am."
They originally relied on the bodyguard profession, but now they have just changed from delivering goods to protecting people.
Escorting goods can come and go in wind and rain, but it is not as easy and stable as protecting people.
Daohua asked again: "Can you be the master of Uncle Qin and the others?"
Qin Xiaoliu nodded: "Yes, in fact, Fifth Brother and the others have also looked for jobs in home care homes before, but they were not selected. If they can stabilize, who would want to run escorts outside all year round?"<
