My Fort Supermarket

Chapter 297 Ruth's Courtyard

"Boss, go slowly!"

Night is no better than during the day. Even though many streets, especially in the central square of the city, are now equipped with lamps, only a small number of people are accustomed to walking around outside at this time.

After a busy morning and afternoon, most of the managers and employees were exhausted.According to the shift system, those of them who are not going to work tonight have already gone back to rest early.Many of them live nearby.That was arranged by Jonny for them. As long as they are still working in the supermarket, they can live there forever, which is the staff dormitory.

And near the yards of several streets that serve as staff dormitories, there are also many guard soldiers living.The more than 1000 people in the magic camp also have a resting place in the city between the east gate of the city and the supermarket.So here is not only a place for them to go to work and rest, but also a shelter where they can feel safe in their hearts.

But this is only a shelter from the wind and rain, not the warm "home" that Jonny said!However, because of this, two or three three-storey stone buildings were started to be built near the supermarket.If the speed is fast, they will be able to move in within a month.At that time, they will also realize that the kind of comfortable stone houses that only nobles and wealthy businessmen can afford.

Ruth's current residence is no longer the courtyard where even the door can be blown apart by the wind.Jonny has bought it with money, and she is already one of the few big stewards under the master of the castle, so she also has a small courtyard with a single family.If she hadn't been used to living a poor life and added a few maids and servants, she would be considered one of the few wealthy people.

But now, her small courtyard is quite lively.In addition to the two younger brothers and sisters, many people who have helped them more or less before, if they are lonely and have good temperaments, they are also taken over by her to serve them.

But looking back, looking at the tall and large stone building of the supermarket in the distance, under the illumination of the outside light, the reflected light on the glass of the door and window, there was a bit of scorching light in her eyes.She seemed to be able to see that a person who firmly believed in her heart was watching her there, giving her a stable life today.

"Ruth, you're back! Hurry up, don't stand here, my aunt has cooked a few dishes, all of which are bought from the supermarket. They taste good and are still hot, and I'll be waiting for you when you come back!"

Two elderly men at the door stood there with crutches.It seemed that they were waiting for her return, seeing a familiar figure and face, and a dress that they would never be unfamiliar with, even if they saw it once, they would never forget it.What's more, Ruth is now the girl with the highest status under Johnny.This identity also makes her even more eye-catching.

Ruth withdrew her gaze from the stone building in the supermarket, greeted the two old people, and then said with concern in her tone.

"Now that the weather is cold and it's so late, don't wait outside for me to come back! Sometimes I work overtime at night, and I may come back very late!"

"Hehe, we two old fellows have also hunted and killed bugs! Don't look at your hands and feet now, but your body is still strong! We are also strolling outside for a while, and we are about to enter the house!"

While laughing and talking, the two old men posed a few poses, perhaps in order to show off their strength.Only in Ruth's persuasive voice with a smile on her face, they walked into the courtyard together.

Although the small courtyard is not big, there are quite a few rooms. Ruth and her sister live in a large room in the main house.After all, this yard was earned by relying on Ruth.Others don't dare to rely on their age to do this kind of thing and make people unhappy.It was delayed for a while, and finally Ruth had to agree.The younger brother lives in the small room next door. Although the room is small, it is one of the few, and it has a good room with all kinds of items.

There are also five or six other large and small houses crowded with more than a dozen people.In addition to these elderly people who did not dare to go out of the city to hunt the Zerg, there were also two or three guards who lost their legs and feet in the fight with the Zerg a while ago.

I also dealt with Ruth a few times, and helped her afterwards.If it weren't for the actions of these fighters, it would be difficult for her younger sister and younger brother to survive the massacre of the Zerg.After knowing that their legs and feet suffered incurable injuries, she took her sister and brother to pick them up from the pharmacy where they were recuperating, and stayed here to take care of them.

The younger brother is very competitive, and he has a good warrior posture at a young age.Although his legs and feet are weak, his hands and eyesight are still there.Even if it is not as good as Saatchi and Loggins in their ability to train people, the three of them can still give some pointers together.During the time when he doesn't go out, the younger brother follows them and slowly exercises in a decent manner.

"Don't tire yourself out too much. Manager Qiao said that it's better not to go too far. These are all excellent fighters, so you should remember them!"

"Understood, sister! Look, my move, does it look like Captain Loggins' 'Night Ghost' move!"

Ruth nodded with a smile, praised a few words, and nodded to the three soldiers next to her, and told the two women who were busy in the kitchen to prepare for dinner.

"You guys eat, I've already eaten, just drink some soup!"

Seeing the people sitting at a large table enthusiastically letting herself taste a little bit of this and a bite of that, Ruth smiled and pushed the plate in front of her to her brother's side.However, I took a mouthful of the key dishes that were introduced, and praised them with a smile on my face for a while, which made the two women who had been busy in the kitchen for a long time lose their eyesight when they were smiling, and made them laugh again. A few old men on the side had a good joke for a while.

Because there was still work to be done, Ruth finished a bowl of hot soup, picked up a beautiful briefcase she brought back, told her she would go to bed early after eating, and went back to her room.

After a while, the younger sister who had finished eating also returned to the room.Seeing the tables and chairs lying on the window, looking at some books and documents in front of a desk lamp bought from a supermarket, he hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice.

"Sister, I, I also want to go to work in the supermarket and earn some money! Help my brother, and the uncle and aunt in the yard!"

"Well, I saw it! But Xueer is in charge of these things. Didn't she ask you to come back and wait for news!"
