Chapter 407 Asking You One Last Question

"Okay, I'll take this sign to the shop tomorrow and ask them to make it with this method," Song Ning nodded, looking at the sign drawn by Han Duyue, with bright eyes, "Xiaoyue, what did you draw?" This sign is really beautiful, I wonder if you can draw a few for my shop?"

Such a request was a piece of cake for Han Duyue, so she agreed without even thinking about it: "Okay, then tell me the name of the shop and the requirements, and I will draw for you."

When she said this, Han Duyue didn't realize how much work this matter represented, until Song Ning came to her with a small notebook: "Xiaoyue, here are all the shop names and requirements, you Just look at the painting, I believe in you."

"..." Looking at the notebook that Song Ning handed over at least a dozen pages, Han Duyue regretted that she had promised so simply before. How could she have forgotten that Song Ning is actually a local tyrant!
Song Ning smiled slyly: "Xiaoyue, you promised me before, but this matter is not in a hurry, you just have to draw a picture."

"Understood." Han Duyue could only take it speechlessly, and she suddenly felt that the previous leisurely life seemed to be getting farther and farther away from her.

During his stay in Fucheng, Han Duyue would go to the supermarket in the morning to inspect the stocking situation, and in the afternoon he would conduct group training for the recruited male workers. Of course, this kind of training was not face-to-face, so Han Duyue could only stay. Guiding from behind a screen.

At night, Han Duyue had to draw signs with the lights, and it was a hard day.

But this kind of fulfilling and fun-filled life is still good. Watching the supermarket being filled day by day, watching the recruited employees become more and more professional and skilled, and watching more and more brand design drawings in front of me, then This kind of joy is not something you can experience all the time.

Under such a busy pace, it was not until six or seven days later that Han Duyue suddenly realized a problem. She hadn't even recruited a female worker yet!
"Suran, hasn't anyone come to sign up recently?" Han Duyue put down his pen and asked.

Because Su Ran has been in charge of taking care of Han Duyue, she is very capable in terms of ability, and her gender is indeed much more convenient, so she came to Fucheng with Han Duyue, and she has indeed helped Han Duyue a lot recently.

Hearing this, Su Ran nodded worriedly: "No one has come to ask about it yet."

The implication is that no one has even asked, and it is even less likely that someone will sign up.

Han Duyue couldn't help but fell silent. She made a special trip to several nearby villages before, and found that even in Fucheng, there were still villages around that were not too different from Qingyuan Village.Moreover, except for some men in the village who would go to Fucheng to find some work during the slack season, most of the people in the village lived a very leisurely life, especially the women.

It was because of this understanding that Han Duyue maintained a very optimistic attitude towards the recruitment, and even sent people to various villages to promote it, but who knew that after so many days, no one came!

"Let's go and have a look tomorrow. Obviously, we pay a lot of wages and the conditions are very good." Han Duyue didn't understand this. At that time, she specifically focused on the supermarket's efforts to protect the rights and interests of female employees. Well, I didn't expect those people to be unmoved.

With this doubt in mind, Han Duyue fell asleep in a daze, and went out early the next morning with Su Ran for an inspection. Now the first floor of the supermarket has almost all the goods that can be placed, and she There is no need to go to the supermarket every morning to stay.

The nearest village to Fucheng is called Luliu Village. Because it is very close to Fucheng, the scale here is much larger than ordinary villages. Looking at the environment in the village, the living conditions seem to be better.

As soon as he entered the village, Han Duyue got out of the carriage and walked towards the village with Suran on foot. The carriage was left at the entrance of the village. Since he came to inquire about the situation, it would be better to be equal.

Along the way, Han Duyue looked around. I have to say that rural areas are also different. Although some houses in this village are mud houses, there are also many wooden houses and brick houses. They look comparable to those in Qingyuan Village. How much better.

"Miss, there seem to be a few people over there." Su Ran pointed to the right direction.

Han Duyue turned her head to look over, and saw a few figures faintly appearing behind a bush: "Come on, let's go and have a look."

The two turned a corner and walked to the right. Before they got close, they heard a few half-grown children coming out from behind the bushes. Seeing Han Duyue and Su Ran, they were stunned for a moment, then the two The two glanced at each other, lowered their heads and ran away.

Han Duyue originally wanted to call these children to stop, but after seeing their expressions clearly, she gave up the idea, and after they ran away, she walked through the bushes, looked around, and finally landed on On top of a figure curled up on the ground.

This is obviously a child too, although he is wearing simple rough linen clothes, but at least it can be seen that it is a girl, looking at the other person's small body, Han Duyue pursed her lips, and said softly: "Are you okay?" Bar?"

The girl curled up on the ground obviously didn't expect someone to appear at this time. Hearing the voice, she couldn't help shaking with fright, and subconsciously looked up, revealing a sallow face.

Facing such a face, Han Duyue suddenly thought of how she looked when she first came here, with the same sallow complexion, thin and withered hair, the same fear, and fear in her heart and eyes...

And Han Qingmei at that time, Xiaonian at that time...

"Are you okay?" Han Duyue curled her lips slightly, and subconsciously stretched out her hand towards the girl.

The girl just looked at Han Duyue defensively. This reaction is not surprising, especially for a person who has been hurt by others.

Han Duyue shrugged and withdrew her hand: "Why don't you get up first?"

The girl lowered her eyes, and after a while, she slowly got up from the ground. Looking at her body, she seemed to be only ten years old, but Han Duyue was someone who had seen the impact of malnutrition on a child's development, so naturally she dared not judge people by their appearance judging her age.

"Are you okay?" Han Duyue clearly showed kindness and concern for those who had similar experiences with him.

But this seemed to have the opposite effect, making the girl more defensive in her eyes. She stared at Han Duyue for a moment, then walked around the two of them without saying a word and walked out of the bushes.

Han Duyue looked helplessly at the back of the girl leaving slowly, thought for a while, and followed her up: "Suran, let's go and see."

Han Duyue's voice was not deliberately lowered, and the girl who hadn't walked too far naturally heard it, but she just paused and had no other reaction.

"We came here because we wanted to ask you about something, and there is no other meaning. Can you help us?" Han Duyue followed the girl not far or near, and his mouth was not idle.

The girl didn't have the slightest intention to talk to Han Duyue, but just walked forward step by step, her posture was a little awkward, it seemed that her legs and feet were a little inconvenient.

Han Duyue said undaunted: "I heard that a shop named Songyue Pavilion is about to open in Fucheng recently. They are recruiting female workers recently. The wages are quite high and the treatment is good. Do you know?"

The girl still ignored Han Duyue, and there seemed to be a faint tendency to increase her speed.

"I think if you have nothing to do at home and you are of the right age, you can go and have a look. Anyway, it's not a bad thing." Han Duyue kept a proper distance, paused, and then asked, "How old are you?" Huh? Are you 12 years old? It seems that you can go to the shop if you turn [-] years old. You should..."

Han Duyue didn't finish her sentence because she saw the girl suddenly stop and turn her head.

"Don't follow me anymore!" The girl finally spoke, but her voice was hoarse, as if she had just cried.

Han Duyue was a little surprised, but at the same time she was a little speechless. What was this little girl thinking? If someone was willing to lend a helping hand when she first came here, she would be more than happy to accept the other party's kindness instead of People like this girl will only reject people thousands of miles away.

Temporary indebtedness doesn't mean anything, on the contrary, only when you live better can you better repay those who are kind to you, isn't it?

Of course, this little girl might simply regard Han Duyue as a bad guy, but does she really look that bad?
Han Duyue was a little embarrassed, but she still tried her best to have a good temper: "Girl, I really don't mean any harm, I just want to..."

"I don't know you, don't follow me." The girl frowned and said.

Seeing the girl's alienated and guarded expression, Han Duyue took a deep breath, and finally couldn't maintain the smile on her face: "I just want to ask you one last question. If you reject me, I will not follow you again. If you give You have an opportunity to get rid of the current situation of being bullied and let you and your family live a prosperous life, will you choose to accept it?"

This question had nothing to do with what Han Duyue just said, and the content was so sensitive that the girl was taken aback by the question, with a slightly dazed look on her face.

After a while, Xu Shi understood the meaning of Han Duyue's words. Surprise, puzzlement, suspicion and other dark colors appeared on the girl's face successively, and finally hesitation was fixed.

She opened her mouth, but said nothing, but at least she didn't continue to chase Han Duyue away.

"You have such a reaction, which makes me feel more at ease. I just saw you being bullied but didn't know how to resist. I thought you were numb." There was a faint smile on Han Duyue's face again, knowing hesitation , it means that there is still the idea of ​​living a good life, so there is still hope.

Hearing this, the girl's face suddenly showed a shy expression, and at this moment, she was not so afraid and guarded against Han Duyue.
