After living a new life for my neighbor's grandmother, I traveled through the book again

Although Tong Jia pretended to be unconscious and did not see the face of the man who made everyone in the room change color, the voice sounded very familiar to her.

"Why does this voice sound so much like the policeman sent by the police station to protect me?" Tong Jia thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to tell Tao Junle this idea now.

Tao Junle's heart was in his throat at this moment.

Because the man was walking towards them.

The goal is very clear, which is the direction he and Tong Jia are heading.

Tao Junle wanted to use his small body to block Tong Jia, but his height meant that all his actions were in vain.

After the man entered the house, he looked at Tong Jia carefully for a long time. In the end, he was still worried, so he took out a chicken feather from somewhere and scratched Tong Jia's nose.

Just when Tong Jia was about to sneeze, a cry of "Ah, which damn thief stole my money!" came from the inner room.

After hearing this, the man didn't care about Tong Jia. He threw down the chicken feather in his hand and left the room where Tong Jia and Tao Junle were imprisoned.

After the man left, the traitor who was also pretending to be a hostage began to get restless.

Tao Junle took this opportunity to ask Tong Jia the reason.

Although he himself didn't know how Tong Jia did it, he instinctively felt that it was Tong Jia who took away the ill-gotten gains of these beggars.

In fact it is.

Tong Jia also came up with this idea on the spur of the moment when she was trying to get rid of the man's temptation.

She was not sure whether the telekinesis technique was possible. Before she did so, she repeated the names of Grandma Rong, Grandma, and Meng Po in her mind several times, hoping that they could show some help.

As a result, it really worked.

All the ill-gotten gains of these beggars disappeared in an instant and were transferred into the RV.

Taking advantage of the chaos of looking for money outside, Tong Jia slowly woke up, and while the traitor boy was paying attention to the situation outside, she stabbed him in the neck.

The traitor boy fell to the ground, and two little girls in their teens appeared almost screaming. Fortunately, Tao Junle was quick-witted and covered one girl's mouth with one hand.

Tong Jia explained, "Don't be afraid, I have discussed this with the police station and am here to rescue you.

This child is different from you, his...his situation is a bit complicated, so we can't take him away now."

But in order to build good relationships with these hostages, the traitor boy took special care of them.

These kidnapped children, regardless of age, saw Tong Jia knock the boy unconscious, and without thinking twice, they immediately decided that Tong Jia was a bad person.

Some accepted their fate and cried silently, some wanted to give first aid to the traitor boy, and some wanted to sneak attack Tong Jia and avenge the traitor boy.

They were all resolved one by one by Tong Jia and Tao Junle.

Finally, when the children saw that they were no match for the enemy, they started shouting, trying to attract the beggars to come and help.

Tong Jia was almost mad to death at the sight of him not being able to distinguish between friend and foe.

Tong Jia didn't tolerate them and took out some drugs from the RV and knocked down everyone in the house.

Then he took everyone except the traitor boy into the RV and left the human traffickers' den alone.

However, the time and number of people that can stay in the space are limited. She had only run away from the human traffickers' den for about ten minutes when she felt a reminder from the RV that time was almost up.

She couldn't reveal the existence of the RV, so she had to find a big tree nearby and let everyone in the RV out.

Then he took a bottle of water from the RV and poured it on Tao Junle's head.

Tao Junle was suddenly splashed with cold water, and he shuddered all over and immediately sat up from the ground.

Tong Jia immediately put the bottle back into the RV and pulled Tao Junle to run to the police station.

Even if the two of them were out of breath during the journey, they didn't dare to rest.

Only after they ran into the police station did the two men dare to stop to catch their breath and rest.

Tong Jia panted and reported to the detective of the police station everything she found in the Huahuazi den and the current location of the abducted children.

When the inspector and his men rushed over, they saw the inspector he had sent to protect Tong Jia digging the children lying on the ground.

Everyone thought that the agent stayed there to protect the children and no one thought much about it.

The inspector patted the detective on the shoulder and said, "Leave this to me. You take the others to deal with those beggars."

The agent's face froze, and he looked back at the children on the ground every few steps. He could only helplessly lead the other four or five agents to his "nest".

When they were almost at the door, he asked the other agents to go in first, and he carried the traitor boy in the woodshed and said, "There's another child here. I'll carry him out first and come back to meet you later."

Then he carried the child and left quickly.

It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows. He usually uses his identity as a police detective to cover up the immoral activities of his family.

The old lady before was the agent's aunt, the middle-aged woman was his wife, and the traitor boy was his son.

After seeing that all the meat tickets in the woodshed were gone, the agent knew that something serious was going to happen.

He immediately killed his aunt and wife, and when he chased out to silence everyone who had just seen his face, he was interrupted by the inspector.

It was impossible to silence them all, so he could only take his son to his other hideout.

After all the children woke up and were brought back to the police station and reunited with Tong Jia and Tao Junle, the inspector finally realized that the detectives under his command were actually the protectors of those beggars.

This also explains why they ran away as soon as they got the clues about those beggars, without taking any action.

After realizing this, the inspector wondered how he could allow such an agent to exist, and immediately sent his men to find the agent.

But no matter how many people were sent, the agent could not be found.

At this time, the agent had already taken the money hidden in the other two dens and left Tianjin with his son.

After learning that the agent had left Tianjin, the inspector smashed his pipe in anger.

But no matter how angry they were, there was nothing they could do. Once they left Tianjin, they had no power to enforce the law.

The agent left Tianjin. Although it made everyone in the police station feel very depressed, it was a good thing for Tong Jia and Tao Junle.

After all, the agent and the traitor boy had both seen Tong Jia and Tao Junle, and they knew that their capture this time was closely related to Tong Jia and Tao Junle.

If they didn't leave, Tong Jia felt that she would inevitably be retaliated against.

Fortunately, Beiyang University will start school soon.

Tong Jia made up her mind that no matter what the dormitory conditions of Beiyang University were, she would take Tao Junle to live in the dormitory.

After all, the dormitory is in the school, which is much safer than the small rental house she rented.

A week after the incident with Huazi, Tong Jia shamelessly went to see Principal Guan and Principal Qian, wanting to move into the school dormitory in advance.

The two principals also understood her thoughts and specially picked a single dormitory for her that was close to the security department.

To be precise, this was originally a single dormitory for teachers in the school, but Tong Jia's situation was special, so the two principals made special arrangements.

Although this single dormitory is just a bungalow, it has much better sunlight than the rental house Tong Jia rented before.

Although this is a single dormitory, Principal Guan and Principal Qian have both informed us, and the furniture inside is very complete.

Not only are there two single beds, but there are also two sets of tables and chairs.

There was a cafeteria on campus and a public restroom at the end of the bungalow. Tong Jia was very satisfied with the conditions of the dormitory. After viewing the dormitory layout, she moved in with Tao Junle on the same day.

The two were packing their luggage when Mrs. Guan came to see them with her grandson and some snacks and fruits.

Mrs. Guan asked Tao Junle to play with her grandson while she helped Tong Jia clean up.

Tong Jia and Tao Junle didn't appear to have much luggage, so there was no need for them to pack together.

After wiping the table, Mrs. Guan cleared her throat before stating the main purpose of her visit today.

She said, "Xiao Jia, I came here this time because it was actually our housekeeper's idea.

You see, this dormitory is a faculty and staff dormitory, not just a student dormitory.

You've moved in now, even though school hasn't started yet. He's worried that someone will find out and cause trouble for Principal Qian.

So... he thought...

Ouch, I'll just say it straight out.

Didn’t Principal Qian give you a note before, saying that he would give you a part-time job to earn money for your studies?

Otherwise, don’t wait until school starts, just start now.

That way, if someone asks about it later, they'll have a reason to explain, right?"

Tong Jia nodded and said, "Principal Guan is indeed very thoughtful, and this is what he deserves.

If my sister and I bring any gossip to the two principals, it would be my fault.

Before school started, I worked for free, so I didn’t have to be paid, and that covered my dormitory fees.”

"Then there's no need to make you work for nothing. You should be paid the same as others are paid for their work. Paying you less could easily lead to misunderstandings.

There were two vacancies: one for a canteen helper, which required physical effort and paid fifteen silver dollars a month. The other was a librarian, a leisurely and boring position that required returning returned books to their original locations, paying only eight silver dollars a month.

What does our steward mean? He thinks the cafeteria is good, and if you get to know the people there, the money that slips through the chef's fingers is enough for you two to eat, and the money you save can be saved.

But if you ask me, it's too hard for a little girl like you to move things before dawn every day. Being a librarian is better.

Although the money is little, I have more free time and have time to study hard.

You should think carefully about these two positions. Principal Qian will probably come to ask your opinion tomorrow. Once you have made up your mind, just tell him directly.

Okay, you must be very tired from moving today, so I won’t bother you anymore.

You guys take a rest, I'll be back soon."

After seeing off Mrs. Guan and her little grandson, Tong Jia began to think seriously about this problem.

According to her own ideas, she definitely wanted to be a librarian. In addition to the benefits that Mrs. Guan mentioned, the most attractive thing about this position was that she could meet many progressive students who came to borrow books, which brought her one step closer to her first plan.

But if she chose to be a librarian, she was worried that Principal Guan would think she could not endure hardship and would have a bad impression of her.

I am trying to decide whether to go to the cafeteria or the library.

Tao Junle pulled her hand, pointed in the direction of the cafeteria, and then pointed at himself.

Then he pointed in the direction of the library and then at Tong Jia.

Tong Jia tilted her head to look at him and asked, "You want to go to the cafeteria? Getting up early every day to help move the food, how tiring would that be? Can you handle it?"

Tao Junle made the number fifteen with his fingers and then clenched his fingers into a fist.

Tong Jia guessed, "You mean... since you're young and can't do heavy work, you can ask for less or no salary. As long as you have a legitimate reason to live here, that's all that matters."

Tao Junle nodded.

Tong Jia asked doubtfully, "Is this okay? You look no more than eight years old now, but you're a child laborer..."

No, it is the Republic of China period now, and there is no "Minor Protection Law" like in later generations.

For those whose families were in financial difficulty, even children as young as three or four would go to the fields to work with their families, let alone those who were seven or eight years old. There was no question of not being able to use child labor.

Thinking of this, Tong Jia took Tao Junle directly to Principal Guan's house.

Almost as soon as Mrs. Guan arrived home, Tong Jia and the others followed.

Principal Guan was very surprised to see Tong Jia coming.

He asked, "Didn't my wife explain everything to you clearly?"

Tong Jia said: "Madam has explained it very clearly. I came here mainly to ask what kind of work is needed in the cafeteria.

I originally wanted to work in the cafeteria so that I could save more money for Lele's medical treatment, but the kid felt sorry for me and didn't want to be seen as a burden, so he insisted on going to work as well.

I didn't let him go and he got angry with me.

I had no choice but to bring him here. I'd like to ask Principal Guan to persuade him. The school simply doesn't want a child his age."

Tao Junle also cooperated very well and acted like he was angry.

When Principal Guan called him Lele, Tao Junle looked at him with tears in his eyes. Then he dipped his finger in the water from the water tank in the courtyard of Principal Guan's house and wrote on the ground: [Sister is tired and wants to help Sister. Lele has strength and will not hold her back.]

When Principal Guan saw the deliberately crooked words written by Tao Junle, his nose felt a little sore.

He sighed deeply and said, "You guys go back first. I'll discuss this with Principal Qian and give you a result tomorrow."

Tong Jia and Tao Junle bowed to Principal Guan together. On the way back to the dormitory, they bought a large hemp twist and two baskets of steamed buns for lunch.

They originally thought that the results would be known tomorrow, but unexpectedly, Principal Qian came to see them that afternoon.

Principal Qian said, "I understand your situation. The cafeteria is unloading the trucks this afternoon, so let Lele go over and try.

If he is capable, let him stay in the cafeteria to help, but the salary will be less than fifteen silver dollars, only six silver dollars for the time being. When he grows up and can do more work, we will give him a raise as appropriate.

If he can't do it, then he will completely give up the idea.

Classmate Tong, you should try it too and see if you can do it.

If you can’t do that, just go to the library.”

With Principal Qian's words, Tong Jia and Tao Junle went to the Beiyang University cafeteria to work as helpers that afternoon.
