A Blessed Daughter

Chapter 366: work hard for me

Chapter 366 Give me a full job

They pointed the "weapons" in their hands at the four of Wei Ruo, and one of them, a middle-aged man with a long stick, threatened, "Hand over your horses!"

Although the stick was pointed at Wei Ruo and the others, the man's voice was visibly trembling, and there was panic in his eyes.

Even the hand holding the "weapon" is visibly shaking. I don't know if it's because of nervousness or because the body is weak and the arm has no strength.

Wei Ruo glanced at Wei Jinyi and said, "Second brother, be gentle."

"Yes." Wei Jin also responded.

Immediately afterwards, he dodged to those people, and easily snatched the sticks and stones from their hands.

Several people were dumbfounded.

Is this... is this a human being? Is it a fairy?

The women and children hiding in the grass behind the men also made noises in panic.

Wei Jinyi just looked at these people, and before he could speak, one person couldn't stand the pressure and knelt down and begged for mercy:

"The good man spares his life, the good man spares his life, we didn't mean it, we are really hungry!"

Wei Ruo said: "It can be seen that you are indeed very hungry, but our horses cannot feed you."

Speaking, Wei Ruo turned to Xiumei and said, "Meimei, give them all the dried sweet potatoes we brought."

Xiumei nodded her head, and then took out two large bags of dried sweet potatoes from the cloth bag on the horse.

Xiumei walked up to those people and handed them both cloth bags.

Without waiting for Wei Ruo and Xiumei to explain to them, these people reached out to grab the dried sweet potatoes in the bag and started to gobble them up.

There are a large number of people, and two bags of dried sweet potatoes are distributed to each person with two or three slices.

Seeing them like this, Wei Ruo and others didn't disturb them.

It wasn't until they finished eating that Wei Ruo said to them, "Are you the villagers nearby?"

The middle-aged man who threatened Wei Ruo and the others at the beginning nodded: "We are from Renhe County. Dahe Village where we are located is the village with the most difficult land in the county. There is little land and not many crops. It will be enough in previous years, but the weather in the past two years has been bad, basically all the food we planted has died, and the roots and turf on the mountains near our house have been eaten up by us, so we have to escape."

"Are you hiding on the mountain to avoid those government soldiers?" Wei Ruo asked again.

The man continued to nod: "Yes! Some of our fellow villagers were arrested and then died, exhausted!"

Speaking of this, the man's eyes burst out with grief and indignation.

As he spoke, the man turned his head and glanced at the women and children hiding behind them, "There are still some edible grass roots and bark in this mountain, and there is water to drink, so I can live for a while."

Wei Ruo's eyes fell on those women and children with yellow and thin faces. The women nervously protected the children around them, not daring to meet Wei Ruo's eyes.

Instead, the children looked at Wei Ruo with curious and ignorant eyes.

"If I give you enough food and shelter, are you willing to work for me?" Wei Ruo asked.

Wei Ruo's question was so sudden that everyone was almost dumbfounded.

Wei Ruo added: "It is inevitable to work hard for me, but it will not make you too tired. There is a break time that you should have, and it will not make you cold and hungry."

This time they heard clearly that the young man in front of him was planning to hire them.

Several people nodded quickly: "Whoever is willing, as long as you give us enough food, you can do whatever you want!"

"Then there's no problem." Wei Ruo said.

Wei Ruo's decision so happily made the people in front of him look unbelievable.

"Young master, are you serious about what you just said? Are you making fun of us?"

Nowadays, how easy is it to find a job where you can eat?

And the young man in front of him so lightly asked them to stay for him to work, it was hard for them to believe what he said was true.

"I'm planning to buy some fields recently, and I just need to hire people. Since I met you today, it's fate." Wei Ruo explained.

Several people are still in a daze.

"Wait here for me. I don't have anything to eat with me now. I'll get you some when I go back. I'll arrange your residence after two days when I confirm the land I want to buy," Wei Ruo said again.

Hearing this, the eyes of several people couldn't help but burst into light.

This little boy said he would bring them some more food!

Wei Ruo turned to Wei Jinyi and said, "Second brother, let's get them something to eat first, and then come back to check the situation."

It's still early today, so it's still too late to run back and forth.

Wei Jin also nodded.

So the four of them decided to go back the same way. Before leaving, Wei Ruo said to the refugees in Dahe Village: "Keep hiding, and don't get caught to open up wasteland until you are officially hired by me. I can't help you if you catch me."

Several people nodded, until Wei Ruo and others disappeared, they were still in a daze.

Is what this young man said true?

Will he really come back?

will bring them food, and then hire them.

Several people muttered:

"Is he a liar? Where else would anyone want to hire us?"

"But it doesn't seem necessary for him to deceive us. There is nothing in us worthy of him."

"And he really gave us something to eat just now. It's sweet and delicious. I haven't eaten such a delicious thing for a long time."

Several people muttered for a while, but did not draw any conclusions.

But one thing is certain, that is, they have to continue to hide well, no matter whether the little boy just now will come to them again, they cannot be caught as coolies for land reclamation.

On the way back, Xiaobei couldn't help but ask Wei Ruo: "Miss, are you really planning to hire those disaster victims?"

"Of course it's true, I can't just make them happy. Why, do you think there is something wrong with my decision?" Wei Ruo said.

"No, no, I don't dare to question Missy's decision. I just wonder why Missy decided to hire those disaster victims so quickly and stop investigating? What if they have misbehavior?" Xiaobei quickly explained.

"It's not easy or not. I planned it before I came. When I buy the land, I will hire some disaster victims. Although it may not be able to help many people, but it can help one person. I just met them , lets set them up by the way. Wei Ruo explained.

Xiao Bei couldn't help admiring: "Miss, you are so kind."

"Is that all right?" Wei Ruo smiled.

Xiao Bei nodded.

"Then your requirements for being good are too low." Wei Ruo said.

Wei Ruo smiled and turned to Wei Jinyi, "What do you think, brother?"

"Ruo'er is fine."

Wei Ruo smiled "puchi" and said, "I'm not asking you how I am, but what do you think of my idea of hiring those people just now."

"If they are grateful, they will be good candidates. If not, there is still time for another replacement."

"That's the truth." The second brother really understood her thinking.
