Chapter 10

He only heard the sound of Qi rushing, and he walked a few steps before, calming down his mood, and his face slowly returned to normal.Looking down at old man Gao again, his voice was a bit jerky and gentle: "Are you here to find a job?"

Only then did Old Man Gao realize that he quickly knelt down, kowtowed, and said in a trembling tone: "The young one is here to find a job, but because of his age, no one wants to take it. In fact, the small one is very strong." Big, has been doing heavy work for many years, and the body bone plate is very strong-"

"Okay, I see." After finishing speaking, he waved to a manager and gave a few instructions.The job of running the voyage fell to the honest old man Gao.

When old man Gao came back that day, he was very happy. He went to buy two taels of meat from Xu Er, weighed a small bag of rice at the rice shop, and brought it home.As soon as he entered the house, he saw You Xiang crawling by the stove, so disgraced, he laughed and pulled her up, with a gentle and kind face, "Xiang'er, let me come here, take a break first, you are tired after digging all day, now it is winter , these things are becoming more and more difficult to find, all of them are excellent!"

You Xiang stood up with a smile, saw the pork and millet in his hands, and asked happily: "Father, what happened to this?"

"I met a noble person today, and they agreed to let me follow the route. I don't want to go too far. It takes a month to come and go, and occasionally delay a few days. After returning, I can rest for a few days. It's all counted as wages. .When you have money in the future, your daughter will not have to work so hard. Our family can also feed your daughter millet porridge every day to take care of your body. It is time for you to grow your body."

You Xiang turned her back, wiped her face quietly, turned her head and asked with a smile: "Father, this is a good thing! But is this route dangerous?"

"I don't have anything to do. Dad is not a sailor, so he doesn't have to be familiar with water. If he loads and unloads goods when loading and unloading, when he stays on the ship, he can at most help the cooks. It's much better than when he was doing coolies, and The pay is good."

Youxiang exhaled secretly, with a warm smile on her face, "So when are we going to leave this time?"

"I'll be there tomorrow morning, girl, don't worry, when I come back and get my wages, I'll buy you millet porridge."

The two had a warm dinner, and Youxiang always had a smile on her face that never faded away, but when night fell and she was sleeping on the bed, she shed tears silently in the dark. ?So old man Gao owed her in his previous life?Or is it that she owed him in this life, and she will form a grass ring in the next life to repay her past favor?She was restless and stayed awake all night until dawn.

As soon as old man Gao was about to leave, You Xiang pushed open the door in full clothes, stood by the door frame, her dark eyes were full of reluctance, "Daddy will come back soon, daughter is waiting at home, she will take care of herself, don't worry. "

So old man Gao walked out of the house with tears in his eyes.The two lonely hearts can't help but regard each other as the only family.

When old man Gao left, he left a few bags of soybeans, which was enough for two months, and he also left some money for her as a spare.This was all paid in advance by that nobleman, only in this way, he dared to run the route with peace of mind.

Youxiang also doesn't worry about food and clothing for the time being, so she slowly raises her body, and continues to dig loach and shrimp, just as meat.
