Chapter 158 Old Man Huang

The stall owner looked at the old man's worn-out clothes and frowned, but he couldn't help but soften his heart and asked the old man to compensate him with 500 yuan.

Finally, the stall owner asked the old man to leave his address and contact information, and only then did he let the old man leave.

He was cleaning up the mess of the phenomenon. What was going on?

The old man was also very ashamed and helped to clean up.

The stall owner was collecting the relatively intact fruits on the ground and sighing, he felt so sorry for them.

The two of them borrowed a broom and swept up the broken glass bottles on the ground before they stopped.

When everyone saw that there was nothing interesting to watch, they all dispersed.

"Beautiful lady, the mangoes you ordered are ready. Do you want to take them away or eat them here?"

The proprietress's voice successfully brought the two back to their senses, and Xia Ning finally came to her senses: "Pack up."

"How much?" Xia Ning took out her cell phone, scanned the QR code, looked up at the proprietress and asked.

"The total is thirty-five, beautiful lady." The proprietress said to Xia Ning with a smile as she quickly poured the mangoes in the basin into a plastic bag.

The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes showed that she was in a very good mood, so Xia Ning transferred the money directly.

Shen Xinyi took the plastic bag handed over by the proprietress with great discernment.

"Goodbye, beauties!" The proprietress was very enthusiastic and even greeted Xia Ning and the others.

When the two men were leaving with the mangoes, they saw the old man was about to leave on his tricycle.

Xia Ning thought about it and decided to go forward, so she called out to the old man.

"Old man, wait a moment."

The old man was very confused and stopped, wondering what the little girl wanted him to do.

But he didn't have anything for others to covet.

Thinking of this, he turned to look at Xia Ning: "Little girl, what's the matter?"

Shen Xinyi was also very confused. Why did her cousin call this old man? Did she want to give him money?

So Shen Xinyi tugged at Xia Ning's coat, signaling her cousin not to meddle in other people's business.

Xia Ning didn't know why Shen Xinyi pulled her clothes and made faces, looking very anxious.

But she really had something to ask this old man, otherwise she wouldn't have stopped him on purpose.

Ignoring Shen Xinyi's anxiety, Xia Ning was also very direct.

"Old man, my family is planning to raise a batch of chickens and ducks. I just heard that you have done this before and must have a lot of experience. Would you like to come and work for me?"

When the old man heard Xia Ning talking about raising livestock, his cloudy eyes lit up for a rare moment, but soon dimmed again.

He goes to work, what about his wife?

unless……

"Little girl, do you provide food and accommodation?"

The old man was obviously very tempted, but he had to solve the problem of accommodation. He didn't know how far it was from his home.

Xia Ning shook her head, "Old man, we don't provide food and accommodation here, but you can arrange your own arrangements after you finish your work."

Xia Ning is still very easy-going. She herself used to be a worker and doesn't want to be so harsh on her employees.

Besides, she is not short of money now, so she doesn't need to be as stingy as those bosses who have to do the work of several people alone.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the old man’s eyes lit up again.

"Girl, where is your home?"

Xia Ning also heard the old man's excitement and quickly said, "Dapo Village."

Dapo Village? Isn't that the village next to them?

Their village is Dasa Village, which can be reached quickly by tricycle. In this way, I can take care of my spouse and have a stable income. It’s great!

The old man, also known as Huang Laotou, rubbed his hands and asked awkwardly: "Girl, what about the salary?"

Xia Ning thought about it and said, "Let's set your salary at 5,000 for now. If you perform well, your salary will be increased later."

Afraid that Old Man Huang would think the amount was too little, Xia Ning left some room for maneuver, saying the price would go up later.

But what Xia Ning didn't know was that when Old Man Huang heard the salary, he was stunned.

He only earned 4,000 yuan at his previous job, and food and accommodation were not provided. He didn't expect this girl to give him so much.

Old man Huang was both ecstatic and moved.

Ever since he sold his own farm to pay off his son's debts, no one has ever shown him such kindness.

He was looked down upon by others and was pointed at wherever he went. Whenever he passed by people, he could always hear the villagers' sarcasm and ridicule.

They always pretended to care about his son, and then started to ridicule him, mocking him for having a wife who had a stroke and an unfilial son who was a gambler.

Many times at night, his tears wet his pillow. He had thought countless times about leaving this world with his wife, but every time he saw his wife's concerned eyes, he could never bear to do it.

It's not like he hasn't resented his own son, but who can he blame?

It was all his fault that he was always busy with his work on the farm and neglected his son's education. Plus, his wife was soft-hearted and always reluctant to teach their son a lesson, which is why his son became what he is now.

Moreover, the money his son borrowed has to be repaid. This was all money his son borrowed under the pretext of treating his wife's illness, so those relatives and friends all meant well, and he couldn't disappoint them.

However, after paying back the money, he will never recognize his son again and can no longer count on him. He and his wife are old, and every day they live is a blessing. They dare not expect to have a good life.

"Girl, I'm willing to work for you. Just tell me when I can start working."

Old Man Huang's eyes were determined and he seemed a little impatient.

There was no other way. His wife fell ill and could not take care of herself, and he could not leave her behind and go out to work alone.

Maybe at that time I can see if there are any cheap houses for rent in Dapo Village and bring my wife there directly, so that he can work with greater peace of mind.

Besides, his son is a bastard, and he is old and no longer able to clean up his mess. Not living at home will save the bastard from coming back and rummaging through the drawers for money.

After confirming, Old Man Huang asked Xia Ning directly: "Boss, is there any house for rent in Dapo Village? Is it expensive?"

Old man Huang was very tactful and even changed the way he addressed Xia Ning, which made Xia Ning stunned. It was obvious that she had not yet reacted to the word "boss".

I’m still not used to it. How can someone like her be a boss?

Probably many people born in the 2000s are like this, and they often come up with a lot of strange ideas.

However, Xia Ning was only stunned for a moment, and then she quickly reacted: "Old man, there is no need to be so reserved, just call me Xia Ning, or you can call me Ning girl, everyone in the village calls me that.

There are several families in our village who have vacant houses for rent. You can go and have a look and negotiate the price with them.”
