"Do you still want to invite someone?" Just when Mourning looked away and wanted to go back to the restaurant, a cold and indifferent voice suddenly came from behind him, an immature voice that was obviously still a child, and he turned around in surprise But he was even more surprised.

The one standing in front of him was none other than the little acrobatic boy he met that day!

Seeing that Mourning just looked at him in a daze and didn't answer, the little boy frowned impatiently, and asked again: "Do you still want to hire someone?"

"Ah?" Mourning finally came back to his senses, couldn't help but look up and down the little boy's thin body, and asked incredulously, "Are you going to apply for this job?" what?Also, where did the middle-aged man who took him go that day?How could the little boy be allowed to run out by himself?

"Yes! I want to follow you!" The little boy's voice was extremely firm, "I saw the notice posted in your restaurant to hire workers, but I was delayed by some things so I couldn't go to you immediately , It has been many days now, I want to know if you still want to hire someone?"

"Oh?" Mourning raised his eyebrows with great interest, "Are you literate?" Could it be that such a young child can read? It seems that he is only five or six years old. Logically speaking, he shouldn't be that good, right?

Sure enough, the little boy shook his head and said seriously: "I can only write my own name, and I only found out about the things on the notice after asking others."

The serious look of the little boy made Mourning laugh, "You are such a little baby, even if I wanted to invite someone, I wouldn't invite you, would I?" I think it must have sneaked out, and if the middle-aged man finds out later I don't know how much compensation I have to ask myself for abducting his child.

"I'm young, but I can do a lot of work!" The little boy pursed his lips and said unconvinced, then looked at Zhengxiang's baby sleeping in Mourning's arms, and said earnestly: "I still have a lot of work!" I can take care of children, and I can help you take care of children when you are not free!"

"You?" Mourning wanted to laugh even more, "You are a child yourself, how can you help me take care of the child?"

"There are seven children in my family, and I am the third. Before my parents sold me, I was the one who took care of my younger brother and younger sister!" The little boy said with his lips clenched. He didn't even change his face when he sold it. Mourning was stunned for a moment, and finally understood the reason for the indifference on the little boy's face that didn't match his age.

He looked at the little boy silently for a long while, bent down slightly, and looked into the little boy's eyes, "So the middle-aged man that day was not your father." Fortunately, he always thought that the middle-aged man was the little boy's father. .

"Of course he's not my father!" The little boy denied without thinking, "My father wouldn't treat me like this!"

"But your parents sold you to him, don't you hate your parents?" He is an orphan himself and has no concept of parents, but he also understands that being sold by his parents This kind of thing is definitely a very uncomfortable thing for a five or six-year-old child.

"What's the use of hating?" The little boy lowered his voice and lowered his eyelids to avoid Mourning's sight. "Besides, they have nothing to do. The family is so poor that they can't even drink porridge, and I know they It was very painful to make this decision!"

The children of the poor are in charge of the family early, and the little boy is the best interpretation of this sentence.Mourning was silent for a while, and finally stretched out his hand to pat the little boy's thin shoulder, and said with a smile: "Well, for your sincerity, I'll hire you to be Momo's daddy! "

"Daddy?" The little boy didn't understand.

"Hehe, it means taking care of Momo!" Mo Ning smiled wickedly, and said again: "If you are interested, you can also learn cooking from me." He felt that if his restaurant business became It's very prosperous, there must be a successor, and Momo doesn't intend to make him too tired. It's just right that there is an extra little boy, and Momo will be responsible for managing the accounts in the future. As for the little boy, haha, every day The heavy responsibility of Riyi Xincai will be handed over to him in the future!

"I'm interested!" The little boy replied quickly. Ever since he was performing arts with that middle-aged man, he knew that if he could have some skills, he wouldn't have to be afraid that he wouldn't be able to make money, and he wouldn't have to be afraid of having nothing to eat. eat!Now that he has this opportunity, of course he must seize it tightly.

"That's fine, remember, I don't have high requirements for the people who follow me, as long as they can bear hardships and work hard, if I find that you don't meet any of the items, I will definitely send them to you." You resigned!"

"Well, I understand!" The little boy finally showed a slight smile on his small face, he knew that he really saw the right person!From the first time he saw Mourning, he knew that Mourning was a good person. From the way he looked at the little baby in his arms, he could tell that a person who loves his child so much must also He will be a very protective person. If such a person can let him put himself in his heart, that would be great!

So after parting with them that day, he kept looking for opportunities to escape, and the middle-aged man who bought him was a wandering street performer. From the time he was with him, he knew that he would only The stay was only two to three days, and the day they saw Mourning was already the third day they stayed in Licheng. After he blackmailed the man's silver, he left immediately with a guilty conscience. The little boy has never said a word. Followed behind him frantically, looking for the most suitable opportunity to escape!

It has been almost two years since he was sold to that person by his parents when he was six years old. At the beginning, he thought about running away almost every day, but unfortunately every time he ran away at that time, the end result was to be killed by him. Grab it back, and then repair it severely. Gradually, he also began to give up. The middle-aged man who was so guarded against him at the beginning also gradually relaxed his guard. He would not say that he would always be with him. Well, if it wasn't for the appearance of Mourning, maybe the little boy would have been obediently wandering around with the middle-aged man, but when Mourning appeared, he once again had the idea of ​​running away.

But he is no longer the person he was more than a year ago. The almost two years of wandering life have taught him a lot, and let him understand what it means to wait for an opportunity. After they left Licheng, maybe it was because the person was afraid of Mourning He would come back to his senses and go to ask him for the three taels of silver. The man didn't stop along the way, and kept on going. After passing two county towns, he finally stopped and hurried!That person didn't drink a single drop during the many days on the road, which is undoubtedly a very torturous thing for a person who must drink every day, so that night, that person was sure that the other party would not be able to chase him, so As soon as he thought about it, his mood immediately relaxed. Once he relaxed, the wine worm in his stomach began to scream. The little boy sat beside him without saying a word and watched the man drink one cup after another. Looking at him very quietly, I finally didn't know how many bottles of wine he drank, and that burly body suddenly fell down with a 'bump' sound.

The little boy stood up with a 'swish' sound, and the next moment he turned around and ran towards Licheng. He ran so fast that he didn't dare to stop at the next step. He didn't have a penny on him. Inside the skirt, there are only dry food and a pot of water that he secretly saved these days, very little, but if he saves some, it should be enough for him to deal with it for a few days. He has an idea in his mind, that is, to go back to Li In the city, he found the boy from that day, and begged him to take him in. He thought that the man looked so kind, maybe he might help him!At that time, in his little head, the only thought was that he must not be caught by that person, and he must find that boy quickly, absolutely!He knew that he only had one night, and the next day the man would wake up from the wine, and then he would never have another chance!

After running non-stop for most of the night, he finally stopped. His throat was so thirsty that he felt uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to delay for a moment. He turned around, hid in a forest, and quickly climbed up the tallest tree. Going to hide in this tree.Because he knows his child's footsteps, even if he is given a few more days, he can't be faster than that adult's footsteps, so he has to hide first, and wait for the person to look for him but can't find him. , and then sneak back to Licheng, at that time, he no longer has to be afraid of being caught by him!

At noon the next day, he really saw the man running from under the tree angrily, cursing as he ran. He watched quietly, not feeling much in his heart, but he knew he would succeed!

Finally, three days later at night, he saw the man passing under the tree again, but this time, the man was even more angry, and besides that, there was obvious helplessness. The little boy knew that he had already It worked.Quietly watching the figure of the man pass under the tree, and then gradually go away, the little boy did not climb down the tree immediately, but still sat there quietly, waiting for the dawn, with only a little dry food left on his body. It was noon, and the water was almost gone, but he knew that there was a stream not far away. It didn't matter if the dry food was gone, he could still drink water, but it was only two days, and he could hold on.Hiding in the tree for three days, he was already very tired, but he didn't dare to relax for a moment, as long as he made a slight mistake, his success would fall short, so he had to wait until the man had gone far away before he could down.

Finally, he made it to the sunrise of the next day, and climbed down from the tree carefully, because he stayed in the tree for too long, his little body began to become stiff, and he had to be very careful not to fall go down.

After climbing down the tree, he was on his way again. After two days of non-stop driving, he finally stepped into the gate of Licheng again, and walked around Licheng for another two days. Therefore, when Mourning saw the little boy , He hasn't eaten for several days. Fortunately, Mourning really agreed to take him in. The little boy's mind relaxed, and then his eyes darkened, and he passed out.
