Lin Qiusheng felt that God was favoring him, because he just thought about how to sneak into the Ji family last night. This morning the Ji family posted a notice to recruit a group of carpenters. A separate play area was built for Miss Ji in the open space in the east courtyard.
Specially emphasizes that one must be able to work.
Lin Qiusheng was overjoyed because he had studied carpentry before.
In order to enter the Ji family, Lin Qiusheng went to a clothing store to buy a better set of clothing, and then went to the bathhouse to take a bath. If you want to work in a wealthy family's home, you must not be too slovenly.
After tidying up, it was almost noon. Lin Qiusheng came to the back door of Ji's house early to wait, holding two dry steamed buns in his hand and chewing on them.
After a short while, about twenty people came. Others followed one after another. He had thought that many people would come, and because the wages offered by the Lu family were not low, and they also included food and accommodation, they would naturally be eager to get the job. But there are only ten people in the house.
In this case, you will choose those with strong selection ability.
what to do? Although he can do carpentry, he is not one of the top talents. With so many people competing, it’s easy to get brushed off. If someone wants to use some means to get through the back door, he will have no chance.
Thinking of this, Lin Qiusheng looked melancholy.
After a while, the number of people increased from twenty to thirty, and some people even came over.
The door of Ji's house opened, and someone shouted: "Line up, line up, we are only recruiting ten people, and the eldest son of my family will choose them personally."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
“What? Such a trivial matter should be chosen by the eldest son himself?”
“You don’t understand this, right? Miss Ji is the apple of the Ji family’s eye. Things that concern Miss Ji must of course be done personally.”
“So, if we are chosen, we must do everything carefully to make sure there are no mistakes.”
After hearing this, some people who felt that they could not take on the role backed down. It's okay if nothing happens, but if something happens, little people like them can't afford it, right?
Forget it, my ability is limited, so don’t go into this muddy water.
More than ten people left at once. The rest of the people looked confident.
Lin Qiusheng was a little uneasy, but he still lined up as instructed. He was the first one to come, so he stood first as a matter of course. Who knew that as soon as he stood, he was squeezed out of the team by a burly man.
“You, just you, stand behind me, you don’t have any eyesight.”
Lin Qiusheng was about to reply a few words when he heard the person behind him whisper: "This man is known as the number one carpenter. It is said that he made tables and chairs for the prince's palace and the Qin family, and his craftsmanship was personally praised by the wise king. "
As soon as Lin Qiusheng heard this, he obediently moved to the back. The team couldn't see the end at a glance, and he frowned in anxiety.
Here, Ji Yushu arrived late with Ji Hua in his arms. The person pushing the wheelchair was Zuo Tong, followed by Su Yuyue who was pretending to be solemn.
She thought about it all night last night and felt that it would not be good to leave as soon as she came in. She had to repay the favor before leaving. Just wait two more days. After two days, she will leave Ji Mansion on the pretext of finding her relatives.
"Master, everyone is outside." The steward came to Ji Yushu and said respectfully.
Ji Yushu nodded, "Then distribute a piece of wood to each person and carve a simple pattern first to see how the craftsmanship goes?"
"Yes." The housekeeper agreed and went down to do it. Ji Yushu sat quietly in the wheelchair and waited.
Ji Hua looked curious.
【Big brother, are you really going to make a playground for me? Hee hee, that's really great. 】
【I want the one with a carousel, a pirate ship, Thomas the Tank Engine, a rocking car, etc. 】
Ji Hua counted on her fingers, which made Ji Yushu feel dizzy. After he finished, he said:
【At that time, I can also invite other friends and brats to come over and play. But there is a fee, such as one tael of silver per ride. You have to pay for tea. ] Ji Yushu:
Little sister, I have never heard of what you said. It is impossible to do it, and it is even more impossible to collect money. The reason why he suddenly wanted to build a place for her to play today was just a cover. What he really wants to do is to lure Lin Qiusheng out.
If the person Ji Linfeng saw yesterday was really Su Yuyue's uncle. Then this person will definitely find a way to enter the Ji Mansion, and first get close to Su Yuyue.
So, he discussed this matter with his family this morning. No, the whole family applauded with both hands, and Ji Hua was so excited that she couldn't sit still.
Immediately say: Immediately, immediately, now, it must be repaired.
Mrs. Ji felt sorry for her daughter, so she urged Ji Yushu to act quickly.
Hence, Ji Yushu asked Zuo Tong to post the notice. He didn't know that Lin Qiusheng knew carpentry, but he could recruit people for other reasons.
If he wants to enter Ji's house and get close to Su Yuyue, this is his only chance.
But he didn’t know Lin Qiusheng, so he brought Ji Hua with him, hoping that Ji Hua could help identify him.
Ji Hua has no idea that she is just a tool now and is still giggling.
【Hehehe, big brother really loves me, it moved me so much that I burst into tears. 】
Ji Yushu:
Half an hour later, everyone in the queue handed over a small object. Ji Yushu confirmed again and again: "Did everyone pay it in?"
“Yes, Sir, there are thirty-nine people here, all carpenters.”
Ji Yushu smiled, thinking that Lin Qiusheng was also good at woodworking. That would be better. He said: "Then call them in one by one for questioning. Those who are close to each other will be left behind." Let the little girl come and see which one is Lin Qiusheng?
Ji Yushu asked the housekeeper to distribute the pile of objects again. Pass it on one by one.
The first person who came in was the burly man. Ji Hua was startled as soon as she came in.
【This person is born with good and evil nature, and he cannot do detailed work at first glance. No, no. 】
Ji Yushu's eyes fell on the man's face, he shook his head and said, "No, next one." The man was confident, but when he heard this, he immediately felt that Ji Yushu must be judging people by their appearance.
He hurriedly said: "eldest son, although the little one doesn't look very good, he is a good hand at work. The carved things are even more lifelike. For example, the little wooden horse and the puppy can be compared with the real ones. Comparable to dogs.”
Ji Yushu still shook his head and called the person down.
When he went out with the housekeeper, he wanted to secretly put some money in and ask the housekeeper to put in a good word for him. He also emphasized that he had helped make tables and chairs for Prince Xian's house.
The housekeeper glanced at the man and really didn't want to offend him, but from Miss Ji's frown just now, she knew that he was too ugly.
“Don’t you know yet? It’s not that your craftsmanship is bad, but that your appearance scares my young lady.”
The man is about to cry but has no tears. Isn’t he just taller, with a wider face, a longer beard, and a scar on his face? What's so scary about this?
There is no other way, if someone doesn’t want it, he can’t just let it go.
The first one was eliminated because his appearance was not good enough, and the people behind him instantly understood. This not only requires finding someone who is good at the craftsmanship, but also does not scare Miss Ji.
The news from the front did not reach the back, so Lin Qiusheng lined up in line with great anxiety.
【Ah, I remembered it, Lin Qiusheng seemed to have a scar on his face. 】
After hearing this, Ji Yushu called out: Little sister, why didn’t you tell me earlier? What if that person just now was Lin Qiusheng?
