Seeing Ran Qiuye leave, the little thief asked Jiang Weidong.

"Brother, did I get in the way and delay your and sister-in-law's business?"

These words made Jiang Weidong laugh "puchi".

"Where is the sister-in-law, she is just an ordinary friend."

"Okay, don't worry about that useless heart, come with me."

This kid trusted him very much, and he left as soon as he said, without even asking where he was going.

Jiang Weidong found a restaurant along the road and ordered four dishes for him alone.

Fish-flavored shredded pork, spicy diced chicken, fried pork, and a small chicken stewed with mushrooms.

That's right, it's all meat dishes.

In addition, I also ordered two large bowls of white rice and two bottles of Arctic Ocean soda for him.

The little thief had tears in his eyes, but he tried very hard not to let them flow.

"Brother, stewed chicken with mushrooms can be eaten once a year in our year, which is the dinner on New Year's Eve."

"What are those few dishes in front of me? I haven't even heard of them."

Jiang Weidong asked the waiter to open the soda and hand it to him.

"Drink, I haven't drank water all day, I'm thirsty."

The little thief stared at the label on the bottle and said excitedly, "I know what it is, brother."

"Dashan's father in our village said that soda with a white bear on the bottle is the Arctic Ocean, and it's delicious."

Taking advantage of the time before the food was served, Jiang Weidong asked him to talk about his situation.

It turned out that this kid's first name was Nadan, he was a Manchu, and his nickname was Akdun.

A hundred days after he was born, his parents died at the hands of the devil one after another. It was his sister who was five years older than him who brought him up.

A few years ago, his sister got married and had a baby.

The in-law's family began to ask, one is not allowed to raise her younger brother, and the other is to take the family land.

His sister naturally disagreed, so the family had a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days.

Nadan felt indebted to his sister, and was even more unwilling to live such a life.

Then he left a letter to his sister and ran away from home.

There was a question that Jiang Weidong couldn't figure out, "How did you find the capital?"

"And you don't have any money with you, how did you survive until today?"

Nadan said, "I heard people in the village say that it gets colder the further north you go, and after passing the Changbai Mountains and the Daxing'an Mountains, you will end up going any further, and you can't go on."

"So I went south. I left home in August. In autumn, the roadsides are full of crops. When I'm hungry, I bake corn, when I'm thirsty, I pick fruits, and when I'm sleepy, I sleep on the ground. It's not worth the money. A place where you can walk in a chic way."

"But I was dumbfounded when it came to winter. Who would have thought that this pimple would be so cold? Originally, I wanted to continue going south until I found a place that is not cold all year round."

This kid has a good brain and is quite courageous.

Hearing what he said, Jiang Weidong became even more interested, "Then why didn't you leave?"

Nadan continued, "Because I asked someone, and they said this is the capital, so why should I go?"

"Under the emperor's feet, why are you messier than other places? Brother, can I discuss something with you?"

At this time, the waiter began to serve the dishes.

Jiang Weidong picked up the chopsticks and continued to pick up vegetables for him in the bowl, and asked at the same time, "What's the matter, tell me."

Nadan was really hungry, and he didn't talk about the things he wanted to discuss.

Holding the rice bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, the speed of picking up vegetables is like a whirlwind.

It wasn't until he finished a bowl of rice that he realized that Jiang Weidong hadn't moved a mouthful.

"Brother, why don't you eat?"

"You... Do you think my chopsticks are dirty? Then you eat these two dishes. I haven't even touched these two dishes!"

Jiang Weidong smiled, "I'm here to take you to dinner, you don't have to worry about me, eat slowly, if you don't have enough, ask for more."

Nadan was taken aback when he heard this, but he was so hungry that he couldn't take care of those silly things, so he picked up his chopsticks and continued to sweep.

When he put down his chopsticks, there were only a few side dishes left on the four dishes, and the rest were empty.

He burped and said to himself, "It's Chinese New Year."

Jiang Weidong asked the restaurant owner for some hot water with the tea he brought with him.

After brewing two cups of white tea, I handed him a cup, "After eating so much meat, drink some tea to relieve the tiredness."

Nadan waved his hand, "I'm not afraid of getting bored, brother, we add one piece to the whole village, and we can't make up four meat dishes in one meal, really."

This is the truth, steamed buns and cornmeal batter are not free, let alone meat dishes.

"Brother, I have something to discuss with you."

Nadan was full, and remembered what he had just said, "Can you take me in, I will farm!"

Jiang Weidong remained expressionless, "My house has no land."

This is awkward.

Nadan lowered his head, knowing that he would starve again after this meal.

Looking at him, Jiang Weidong was quite touched.

But this is not like the later generations, buy a train ticket, say Beidiao is Beidiao, and say Hupiao is Hudiao.

At this moment, wanting to take root and live in a strange place is not something that can be done just by talking.

"Nadan, it's not that I refuse to take you in. Your household registration is not in the capital, so your rations, responsibility fields, and your entire relationship are all in the northeast. You can't survive here."

"The most basic thing is that you can't even get a temporary residence permit. If your identity is not clear, even if you want to find a job to support yourself, it's probably not easy to handle."

"How about this, I'll find a guest house for you to stay in at night, and I'll buy you a train ticket back tomorrow and get to know each other for a while, that's all I can do."

Nadan quit, shaking his head like a rattle.

"Brother, my responsibility field has been taken over by my sister-in-law's family, and I have no food to eat when I go back. Then my sister can't stand it anymore, and fights with her in-law's family every day, so I'm cheating her?"

After speaking, he took out a dollar from his pocket.

"You gave it to me this morning, and I'm not willing to spend it. Today's meal is the best meal I've ever had growing up."

"Thank you, brother. If I am successful in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Looking at the one dollar he pushed over, Jiang Weidong couldn't bear it.

After much deliberation, he decided to take the man back first.

Take the time tomorrow to ask Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen to see if they are short of buddies.

When Nadan heard that he was going to take him away, he was so happy that he knelt down and kowtowed on the spot.

Jiang Weidong hurriedly stopped him, "Hey, don't make trouble!"

"I died early in the morning. I don't like this now. Let's go back and talk about it."

He called the waiter to settle the bill, and then took Nadan to No. [-] courtyard.

He Damin found a few wooden boards and temporarily built a simple bed for him, and also found him a set of quilts for him to cover at night.

Before leaving, Jiang Weidong gave him the one dollar again.

"I have to go to work tomorrow, you use this money to go out to buy something to eat."

"I have something to do after get off work. I'll come to you later. Don't run around and have a good rest."

From the moment he spoke, Nadan kept nodding.

"I see, bro, don't worry!"

The night passed peacefully.

In the workshop the next morning, Jiang Weidong was still pondering while working.

What if Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen are not short of people?
Judging by Nadan's expression, he definitely has no intention of going back to the Northeast.

If you can't help him find a job for him to make a living, he is not familiar with the place here, and he will basically die.

When you have something on your mind, time flies so fast.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for lunch.

As soon as Jiang Weidong arrived at the cafeteria to get food, he saw He Damin running towards him in a hurry.

"Oops! Xiao Jiang!"

"Something happened!"
