The thin young man in the yard next door was now sitting under the magnolia tree in his own house to enjoy the cool breeze. A magnolia flower had already bloomed, and at this moment, a flower was slowly falling on the thin young man's body, which matched the dark clothes on his body and made the boy's jade-like face even more charming.
The white magnolia flowers blended with the black clothes looked extremely beautiful. Even the pure white magnolia flowers could not compete with the young man's color, but the paleness on his face destroyed the beauty.
The sound from next door made the young man who was originally resting with his eyes closed slowly open his eyes and look towards the next door. Although it was a bit noisy, he could accept it. He was just used to quietness after all. Besides, he just wanted to spend the last two years in peace.
He reached out and picked up the magnolia flower that had fallen on him, placed it casually on the small coffee table, and slowly stood up.
"Jianshu, the people next door are moving in, right?"
The voice was magnetic and gentle, like the clear flowing water in the mountains and the moving moon. When Jian Shu heard the words of his young master, he quickly answered.
"They've already moved in. It seems to be a divorced woman with three children. The young man among them seems to be leaving in the next two days."
The young man withdrew his gaze from the flowers and slowly looked at the wall next door. To be honest, he didn't want anyone to live next door, but he didn't notice when the house was sold, which led to someone living next door again. He just hoped that it would be quiet next door, he really couldn't stand it anymore.
Besides, she seemed to be a young woman with three children, so he felt embarrassed to use other means to drive her away. He just hoped that they could keep to themselves.
"Even though there are people living next door, as long as they don't make too much noise, just let them live there and don't scare them anymore."
After saying this, the young man gently closed his eyes again, continued to rest under the magnolia tree, feeling the breeze. The breeze blew through the young man's long hair, making it look like a still ink painting, which made people stop and take a closer look. Secretary Jian was also impressed by the fact that at this moment, his young master seemed to be about to ascend to heaven, which touched his heart and made him want to go up and hold his young master.
After watching for a while, Jianshu went back to the room and took out a thin blanket, gently covering his master with it. Although the weather was good now, his master was still a little unwell, so it was better not to let him be exposed to the wind. Every time the young master was sick, he was on the verge of death. Jianshu served him wholeheartedly to prevent his master from getting sick.
The young man lying there didn't even move, allowing his attendant to cover him with a thin blanket. Even the sounds from next door gradually faded away.
After his body was damaged again due to the medicine prescribed by a female doctor, he knew that he didn't have much time left, so he moved out of his home and came here to live for a while, hoping to live a peaceful and quiet life. However, after just a few days, a new neighbor came next door. The previous neighbor asked Jianshu to scare the child because his family was too noisy. As a result, the neighbor was scared and moved out overnight. He felt guilty about it later, so he used his connections to help the family find a nice yard.
To be honest, he was still very embarrassed. After all, he was an outsider, but he ended up scaring away the indigenous residents here.
Wang Shiyu and Mo Ruru quickly cleaned the house. It was quite far from the west of the city, and his next-door neighbor was just a thin teenager. Even if he was a very pleasing teenager, he had little to do with Wang Shiyu. So when Wang Shiyu wanted to move those heavy objects, she was stopped by Mo Ruru. She understood the importance of her daughter's hands, so she didn't let her do heavy work. If they hadn't had to move today and she was too busy, she wouldn't let Wang Shiyu do it.
Wang Shiyu also knew her situation, so she could only take some small items and wipe the dust off the house with a rag. She did not touch anything that could scratch her hands.
After standing in the yard and thinking for a long time, she decided to buy someone to serve her. After all, it was impossible for Aunt Niu to run directly from the west city to the east city to continue taking care of their family. Thinking of this, she wanted to discuss it with her mother.
"Mom, it's too tiring for you to do all the work at home by yourself. Why don't we go to the pawnshop and pick someone to do the work.
I heard that a lot of people have been coming to the dental office recently. We can pick out a few who are honest and agreeable. You still need to keep an eye on Ruirui. You don't have that much time to clean the house, and the monthly salary is not much, so it's better to find someone more convenient."
Wang Shiyu knew that there was a food shortage nowadays, and many people, with their families, sold themselves directly to pawnshops in order to make a living. If she was looking for someone now, it would be a good opportunity.
If they don't sell themselves directly, they have no way to survive. In order to survive, they will naturally make some choices.
After her daughter finished speaking, Mo Ru Ru gently patted her aching waist. She had not done such tiring work for a long time. In the past, when she was with Rui Rui and had not yet gotten up, Aunt Niu would hurriedly clean her house. Every time she went out in the morning, the house was clean, so she slowly put down these chores. Mo picked them up all of a sudden, she was really too tired to bear it.
Aunt Niu is a responsible person. She won't even let there be a speck of dust in the house. She is completely worthy of the money Wang Shiyu paid. Moreover, Mo Ruru and the others always let Aunt Niu and Brother Niu eat directly at home. This also allows them to survive even though they originally couldn't buy food, and they don't even need to sell themselves to other people's homes to be servants.
At this time, Aunt Niu was discussing with her son what to do. After all, Mo Ruru had moved away, and their monthly salary was cut off all of a sudden. They were really worried because they had no money.
Although their family lived in this small, shabby house in the west of the city, they still had no intention of spending half their lives as slaves, because Aunt Niu hoped that her son could marry and have children, and that her grandson would have the opportunity to take the imperial examination in the future.
If someone in the family was sold into slavery, they would not be able to take the imperial examinations for at least three generations. She could not hold her son back. Even Aniu thought it was a great pity that his son had not been educated, and he must find a way to make money for his child so that he could afford to go to school.
