Chapter 1342 Housekeeper 2
Chapter 1342 Housekeeper 2
After hearing this, Ye Zining did not laugh at them. Instead, he lent money to each child and asked them to go directly to the villagers to buy these things.
His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze. "The last batch of caravan members did the same thing. The fishermen in the village are very simple and honest. They won't give you a high price."
Seeing that they were about to leave, he hurriedly added, "Although the people added to the caravan this time are older than you, you have more experience on this journey than them, so you can use this time to get along well with them."
After hearing what Ye Zining said, the children nodded to express their gratitude.
They took the borrowed money and happily ran to the village to buy seafood.
Looking at the innocent smiles of the children, Ye Zining also felt very happy.
Although he himself did not gain anything special, being able to help these children realize their little wishes is a kind of satisfaction.
When the children came back, each of them was holding a big bag of fresh seafood and their faces were filled with happy smiles.
When Ye Zining saw this scene, he couldn't help but fall into memories, and the scenes of his childhood life in a small frontier town emerged in his mind.
At that time, although life was hard, it was at least stable without frequent wars.
Occasionally, the people here can exchange some items with the herdsmen, and have simple and harmonious communication with each other.
However, now that the two sides have gone to war, he couldn't help but feel worried, wondering what the situation is like back home.
As the eldest son in the family, Ye Zining is well aware that he has family responsibilities, so he cannot go back easily no matter what.
Fortunately, his younger brothers Zihong and Zimeng have already returned to their hometown. Especially Zimeng, who was able to stay with his grandfather, made him feel a little comforted.
At this moment, he missed his family more and more, and he couldn't wait to return home and reunite with his relatives.
At dinner, Ye Zining discovered that their food had become noticeably worse since Zifen left.
Faced with such a situation, Ye Zining also felt a little helpless.
They will continue their journey tomorrow and need to prepare enough dry food, but he is not good at cooking and can only rely on others for help.
So he asked Ye Ziwei to ask Zhang Chunyue to come and help.
When Zhang Chunyue arrived, her abdomen was already noticeably bulging and it became inconvenient for her to move.
Ye Zining felt a little bit sorry for her as she watched how hard she worked.
After discussing with Ye Ziwei, they decided to find someone else to help.
Finally, they found Ma Fengchun's daughter-in-law and asked her to help Zhang Chunyue prepare food.
Fortunately, before the caravan set off, everyone received enough dry food to support them to reach their destination.
The caravan officially set off. Master Hua Shao originally thought that daily life would be simple. He just received fresh seafood sent by nearby fishermen and was responsible for training the children who came to the training ground.
However, things did not go so smoothly.
The day after the caravan left, a group of uninvited guests came to the beach.
As soon as they reached the beach, they walked straight in their direction.
If Ye Zifen was here, she would be surprised to find that these people were exactly the same group of people she had sent away in the village before.
Although Master Shao Yao is highly skilled in martial arts, he is usually taciturn.
He asked bluntly who these people were and why they came to where their caravan was.
Those people claimed that they were here to look for the owner of the caravan.
Since Ye Zifen had already left by boat, Master Huashao told them that the boss was away and would have to wait at least two months before returning.
After hearing the news, those people's faces turned ugly.
Some of them looked unhappy and some even tried to take action.
But their companions beside them hurriedly stopped them.
When Master Hua Shao saw this scene, his eyes were filled with contempt and disdain.
He felt that this group of people were simply being unreasonable, so he decided to ignore them and turned back to the training ground.
When Master Hua Shao was teaching the children martial arts, they saw the movements from outside and suddenly felt fortunate that they had controlled their emotions and did not fight with the other party.
Of course, they were in a bit of a pickle when they saw that people were ignoring them.
They were also unlucky. These people were originally from the housekeeper's family, that is, Mrs. Hong's family.
When the housekeeper received the letter from Mrs. Hong Er, they were tempted.
It's just that the housekeeper knew that the first and second wives were having a big fight, so the people from the second wife resolutely set out for the beach without the head of the household's consent.
But they didn't know where it was exactly, so they asked as they walked.
The head of the family knew the capabilities of the second branch and felt that they might not be able to convince Ye Zifen to take them with her to get rich, so he quickly sent the younger generation of the more capable first branch of the family over.
The people from the first house were afraid that the second house would ruin their plans and give Ye Zifen a bad impression of them, so they chased after her while heading towards the beach.
However, because neither side had a map, a lot of time was wasted along the way.
They didn't know that they had missed the opportunity to meet Ye Zifen and others.
At this moment, because Ye Zifen was out, they couldn't see her in person, but they didn't give up hope.
They decided to stay here first and wait for Ye Zifen to return before discussing it with her in detail.
However, it was not easy to find a suitable place to live, because the village had limited housing resources and there were almost no vacant rooms available for living except for the space occupied by the caravan.
In desperation, they could only turn to Master Hua Shao for help again.
Although there were many vacant rooms in the caravan, Master Huashao was not willing to rent any of them to them.
Perhaps he was unhappy with how they had first met and so chose to remain silent.
Faced with Master Duan Shao's indifference, they began to realize the problem and tried to change the situation by trying to please him.
But no matter how hard he tried, Master Talkative remained unmoved and was not even willing to say a word in response.
Just then, hunger set in and they pulled out the roast chicken they had bought during their trip.
Just as they were enjoying the food, the young master who was walking in front of them suddenly stopped.
At first, several people didn't know why he suddenly changed his mind, but when they saw him turn around and stare at the roast chicken in their hands, they suddenly realized.
So they successfully rented a yard by paying a roast chicken and a monthly rent of fifty taels of silver.
Of course, I don’t know how much I talked, how many nice words I said, and how many benefits I promised before I finally impressed Master Hua Shao.
But only Master Hua Shao himself knew that what impressed him most was that the food they brought tasted good. It was like turning on the switch of Master Hua Shao's taste buds and making him unable to stop.
