Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Life had to go on. Things had to be pushed forward.

Just as Li Xiaoran was wondering if she should think of a way to find a few more people, the village chief, Old Master Guo, came looking for her.

“Xiaoran, look, Luo Cheng isn’t around, so I can only discuss this with you! I heard that your shop is hiring people. I have two candidates who want to work in your shop to earn some money!” Old Master Guo said shamelessly.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately said, “Village Chief, I’m hiring people, but I won’t hire useless people. As you can see, my shop is very busy every day. The people I hire have to do almost everything! If the people you introduce aren’t qualified, I’ll fire them!”

For some things, it was easier to express the expectations first.

This was to prevent people like Cai Ying, who wanted to earn money without doing anything, from being hired. She wouldn’t be so stupid.

“That’s for sure. If these two people don’t do their job well, I’ll deal with them!” Old Master Guo said.

“How about this?! Village Chief, tell me about these two people first!” Li Xiaoran could only relent when she heard Old Master Guo’s guarantee.

“Speaking of which, you know one of these two people! Previously, when the Li family was making a fuss, I asked him to help bear witness. It’s our village’s Liang Jiabao!” Old Master Guo said directly.

“Liang Jiabao? Isn’t he studying?” When Li Xiaoran heard this name, she immediately remembered who it was.

However, as far as Li Xiaoran knew, Liang Jiabao had always been in school and was quite knowledgeable. Why did he want to come to her shop to work and earn money?

She hadn’t heard anything happening to the Liang family recently.

“Village Chief, are you serious?” Li Xiaoran was afraid that she had heard him wrong, so she asked again.

“Sigh, you didn’t hear wrongly. It’s Liang Jiabao. Not to mention you, even I don’t believe it! Liang Jiabao is usually very polite and he’s such a good young man. How did he become like this?!” Old Master Guo sighed and began to talk about Liang Jiabao.

Liang Jiabao had run back from school half a month ago and was unwilling to study anymore.

When his family asked him what had happened, he refused to tell them.

The Liang family was naturally unhappy. They had spent so much effort

nurturing Liang Jiabao into a scholar. Why did he give up so early?

Under pressure from his family, Liang Jiabao said that he didn’t like to study anymore. He said that he had a headache whenever he saw a book and couldn’t continue reading!

This time, the Liang family was shocked and quickly went to the school to find the teacher to understand the exact situation.

The teacher gave them the same answer. He said that Liang Jiabao had failed his recent exams, which disappointed the teacher.

This time, the Liang family had no choice.

This child couldn’t focus on learning and would have a headache whenever he tried to learn. They couldn’t force him to suffer!

Therefore, after some discussion, the family thought of finding a job close to home for Liang Jiabao to do first to earn some money, and then see what would happen next.

“Does he really get headaches?” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but ask.

“He really gets headaches, the types that give him extreme pain! Veins pop out all over his body and he sweats profusely. He almost suffocates!” Old Master

Guo said, “What a pity. How did such a thing happen?!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Liang Jiabao’s words, she had a guess.

Liang Jiabao must have experienced something big. That was why he felt uncomfortable every time he studied.

As long as they found the reason and resolved it, everything would be resolved.

However, they couldn’t be anxious and rush things. They had to secretly observe.

This was a good opportunity. If she let Liang Jiabao work here, she could feel Liang Jiabao’s emotions up close.

“If it’s Liang Jiabao’s, it shouldn’t be a problem! However, I have to face many people here. Liang Jiabao should be able to control his emotions, right?” Li Xiaoran asked.

“Don’t worry about that. As long as we don’t force him to study, everything will be fine!” Old Master Guo promised.

“That’s good! Village Chief, tell me about the other person!” Li Xiaoran nodded and asked about the other person.

“This person is a girl! She’s not from our village. Previously, her hometown suffered a calamity and her parents died. She was left alone and could only come to our village to seek refuge with our aunt. Speaking of which, you know her aunt. She’s Qin Cui, the wife of Old Master Wan’s second son.” Old Master Guo mentioned this second person.

“The Wan family? The Wan family has a bunch of people to support. Things will probably be even more difficult with an additional girl!” Li Xiaoran used to live next door to the Wan family, so she naturally knew the Wan family’s situation.

The Wan family had four families living together.

It was already difficult enough to rely on the four brothers to support the family, and now, there was an additional girl.

“When Qin Cui found me, she asked me to think of a way to find a good place for her niece. What she meant was that she doesn’t want her niece to stay in the Wan family.” At this point, Old Master Guo hesitated for a moment and said, “Actually, Qin Cui really wants to take in her niece, but the other families of the Wan family actually want her niece to marry into the family!”

“Of course Qin Cui didn’t agree. The Wan family’s life is already so difficult. How can she watch her sister’s daughter enter the Wan family and live a life of misery? That’s why Qin Cui brought her to me and asked me for help!”

Hearing Old Master Guo’s words, Li Xiaoran also felt some pity for Qin Cui’s niece.

“In that case, if she comes to work in my shop, do I have to arrange a place for her to stay?” Li Xiaoran thought of something and asked.

“It’s naturally best if you can arrange one!” Old Master Guo said.

Li Xiaoran frowned and thought about it for a moment before saying, “It’s fine as long as she’s agile and diligent. I’m afraid it’s a little difficult for me to find her a place to stay! I do have a place, but as you know, there are already three men living here. It’s not appropriate for her to live here with them!”

Hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, Old Master Guo was also a little worried. If she couldn’t live here, there was nowhere in the village to settle her down!

“Sister-in-law, if that girl doesn’t mind that my legs are handicapped, she can marry me!” At this moment, someone suddenly said, “I have some savings.. I can buy a piece of land in the village, build a house, and live a good life with her!”
