Chapter 266 A group of foodies, and a potential drunkard

[No, I'm not the kind of kid who drools randomly.]

Gan Tian's white and tender face was now serious, with her eyebrows tightly wrinkled together, explaining in her heart very seriously.

[I'm not greedy, I just like to taste delicious food.]

"Our Tian'er is really a little glutton."

Hui Niang couldn't help but wrinkle Gan Tian's little face: "Your father and I have never paid attention to the desire for food, why do you like to eat so much?" Gan

Tian bit her beautiful mother's finger angrily.

[No, my second brother is drooling, which proves that it's not my problem at all!

Hui Niang looked in the direction of Gan Huai Bi. Isn't it true? Tian'er was just looking at her eagerly. Her son was already drooling.

Suddenly being looked at by his parents, Gan Huai Bi sucked his saliva and explained vaguely: "I'm not greedy. I just think that if this tree bears fruit, it must be super big and super sweet." "

Mother, my sister is still young and can't live in such a big yard for the time being. Why don't you let me live in this yard?"

Hehe, sweet apricots, sweet dried apricots pickled with sugar, must be super delicious.

Three children, two of them are like this, Hui Niang hurriedly looked at the eldest son.

Fortunately, the eldest son was dressed in white, looking up at the huge apricot tree, and reciting poems in a low voice.

Not bad, not bad, three children, at least one was raised.

But Gan Fanren couldn't laugh because his eldest son was reading: "Excuse me, where is the tavern? The shepherd boy pointed to the apricot blossom village in the distance."

It seems that the eldest son was supplementing the explanation to the second son and daughter.

The other two are foodies, and the eldest son has the potential to be a drunkard.

Gan Fanren divided the yard and posted a notice to recruit servants.

There were many people who wanted to be servants.

Some came for a living, and some had ulterior motives.

These people were a mixed bag, and it was difficult to tell how sincere they were.

Gan Fanren could only select them carefully.

Before Gan Fanren arrived, everyone gathered together.

Zhang San is a middle-aged man who looks very honest. He is holding his little daughter in his hand. His little daughter is not as rough as him. She looks fair and tender. She doesn't look like a child from a poor family, but more like a lady from a rich family.

Zhang San walked into the crowd and asked, "What do you think the servants that His Majesty wants to find should be?"

"Probably honest and obedient, right?"

"Rich people don't all like honest, obedient and capable people."

An old lady said, "I have been a nanny in a rich family for more than 20 years. I know their minds best. They like honest, loyal and most importantly, cheap."

"Although I don't know what kind of servants our Majesty wants, if they meet these three points, they will always be kept."

Zhang San nodded, "It can be seen that you know a lot, unlike me."

"My wife died, and I'm raising a daughter by myself. I want to take this opportunity to find a job. Please have mercy on me, ma'am. When we go in, I'll say I'm your nephew. Take me in with you."

Zhang San stuffed a small piece of silver into the old lady's hand.

The old lady weighed the silver and showed her broken teeth.

"Let me make it clear first. I'm old, and it's hard to say whether I can stay."

"Of course, of course."

"I don't ask you to take me in, but if you go in, or if someone asks about my identity, you can help me testify that I'm your nephew." "

That's easy." Just saying a few words, she got silver. How could she not do such a good thing?

The old lady agreed immediately.

Gan Fanren came for a while and let everyone in in batches.

The old lady and Zhang San entered the hall together.

There were many tables and chairs in the hall, and each table and chair was separated by a certain distance.

"You should all know that our emperor wants to find some servants."

"But our emperor is different from others. He does not require servants to be very capable, but pays more attention to their character and talent."

Talent?

Do servants need to be talented these days?

Hearing this, many people backed out.

Most of the servants come from poor families. How can such families read books?

And how can people who have read books be willing to serve others?

The old lady just asked Zhang San in a low voice.

"Do you know how to read?"

"I know a little, but not much."

Zhang San didn't know what the old lady meant by asking this question, so he could only vaguely say that he knew a little.

The old lady smiled awkwardly: "Although I have been a nanny for more than 20 years, I can't read very well. Can you help me and let me copy the answers later?"

Zhang San couldn't help looking at her with contempt.

But he said: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you."

"Let's help each other. If we enter the mansion in the future, we can take care of each other."

"Everyone, find a seat and sit down."

Zhang San glanced at his daughter. They found a place to sit down.

Seeing this, the old lady also found a place nearby to sit down.

After a while, someone came in with a pile of papers and gave them pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

Let them answer the test paper.

"Sir, can I ask what is written on this test paper?"

A person raised his hand carefully and asked timidly.

The person who helped to screen these people was Qiu Xiangyuan, who loved chatting with people the most, so he went over when he saw this.

Enthusiastically helped each other read the contents on the paper and also helped each other write down their names.

Seeing this, many people asked for help.

Qiu Xiangyuan immediately became busy, shuttling back and forth in the hall.

But not all people asked Qiu Xiangyuan for help, and many people answered the questions seriously.

Their handwriting was very neat, and their answers were very coherent.

When Qiu Xiangyuan passed by, he saw the names they wrote and could not help but nodded.

Seeing this, they were very proud.

When the time was up, Qiu Xiangyuan took away all the papers and found a few people to help look at the test papers together.

"Those whose names I read can leave."

Qiu Xiangyuan took a list and read out the names.

Those people were extremely disappointed and left with their heads down.

There were about thirty or forty people left, including Zhang San and his daughter.

Zhang San thought of the test paper he had answered well, and couldn't help but reveal a confident smile.

Although his knowledge was not the best, he had no problem dealing with such a simple test paper.

Qiu Xiangyuan looked at them with regret.

"It's a pity that you didn't pass this selection. Go back."

Everyone was surprised.

Zhang San couldn't help but walk out of the crowd: "Sir, can we ask why we were not selected?"
