I'm the fourth calamity, but they call me a saint
Chapter 24 Selected
Compared to how difficult it was to be selected by the choir, Levi now looked at Fengzi with a surprised look.
At this moment, she had black hair and wore simple linen clothes. Her originally fair and delicate face was dotted with some freckles last night, and her blue eyes were covered with black contact lenses.
Although she still had outstanding looks and unique temperament, she couldn't see her original appearance at all.
What really surprised Levi was her legs. Fengzi suddenly stopped lame since she got up early in the morning!
Even before Levi put makeup on her, her face was still pale, even a few points paler than before, but now she has become a person with healthy limbs.
"You didn't pretend to be lame before, did you?"
Levi looked at her with suspicion.
Fengzi couldn't help but grit her teeth when she heard this, and the hand holding Levi's arm was even more forceful, and the vicious look was like chewing his flesh.
"You are the one pretending to be lame! Your whole family is pretending to be lame!"
Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Li Wei just shook his head and didn't ask any more questions.
Everyone has some little secrets of their own, just like Li Wei himself. He is not completely unreserved about Feng Zi, and it can even be said that he has kept a lot.
"Let me make it clear first, even if you are not lame, I will not change my words."
As he spoke, he looked around and soon found a middle-aged woman who was also looking for someone in a small alley not far away.
Levi walked towards the woman's position with Feng Zi holding his arm. The woman also saw them and didn't speak first, but just looked up and down.
Until Li Wei asked.
"Did Zhou Laosan introduce you?"
Hearing this address, the woman smiled and became enthusiastic.
"Yes, yes, Uncle Zhou from next door contacted us. Zhao Huan and Zhao Ling, right? Here are your ID cards. The information is entered in advance. It's the kind of old authentication that doesn't require photo inspection."
Levi took the ID cards she handed over and handed the one with "Zhao Ling" to Fengzi.
"Uncle Zhou should have told you that I have additional requirements. You have to cooperate with us today."
The smile on the woman's face became more enthusiastic.
"I know, I know, but he also said that this part of the reward is yours."
As she spoke, Li Wei had already pulled out ten hundred-dollar bills from his pocket. Under the woman's shining gaze, he counted out seven of them.
"I'll give you seven hundred first, and after the matter is over, I'll give you the remaining three hundred."
It's impossible for Li Wei to carry all that cash with him. He rented a house near the church and temporarily put some things that were inconvenient to carry in the house, and only brought a small amount of money with him.
After receiving the agreed compensation, the woman seemed to have done this kind of work many times, and naturally became the "mother" of Levi and Fengzi, and took them to the line to register for the church choir.
The line was indeed very long, and it was basically mothers who brought their children to register. The church choir had a fixed age limit and would only recruit teenagers aged 8-18, with a 50-50 ratio of men and women.
But after all, it was a choir that was exposed to the public.
It is said that the bishop would use the White Tower singing event every year to help the workers in Yuguang District to obtain a lot of subsidies and funds, so the selection criteria for registration every year were particularly strict.
And the children living in Yuguang District would be more or less malnourished, and the parents who were workers had no time to pay attention to their personal hygiene. Even few children could read and learn knowledge.
This meant that although there were many people who came to register, most of them would be rejected on the spot.
According to the real age, Levi's original body in this world had just turned 18 three months ago, and Fengzi was almost 20 this year.
However, the ages on their ID cards have been changed to seventeen and sixteen.
From their appearance, it is indeed difficult to tell their real ages.
After queuing for a whole morning, it was finally Fengzi and Li Wei's turn at around 11 noon.
The pastor in charge of registration and on-site screening was a little numb at this time. He lowered his head and registered Li Wei and Fengzi's ID cards first. When he raised his head and saw their faces, he was obviously stunned.
"Pastor, I'm not bragging! When I was young, I was also a flower in the whole village. My son and daughter look like me! They are also obedient and sensible. When they were young, my dead husband taught them to read. They definitely meet the requirements of the church!"
The woman was very dedicated. While praising herself, she didn't forget to bring Li Wei and Fengzi.
The pastor nodded when he heard her words, but after looking at Li Wei and Fengzi for a while, he didn't say anything first. Instead, he took out two photos from the side, compared them carefully, and then shook his head silently.
The woman hired by Levi thought the pastor was dissatisfied, which made her nervous. She was afraid that Levi and his partner would not be selected and she would not get the final payment.
"What do you think is wrong? Their hair is too long? Or their nails are not cut? Don't just shake your head!"
The pastor put down the two wanted photos in his hand, and did not answer the woman's question first. Instead, he lowered his head and put a big check mark behind the two people's information on the registration form.
"Both of your children are fine and meet the selection criteria. But this is only a temporary selection. The church will arrange training for them later. If there are any problems that do not meet the requirements, we will still eliminate them."
Hearing this, the woman finally let out a long sigh of relief, and a smile of satisfaction appeared on her face.
"Take a look at this employment contract. If there is no problem, let your son and daughter go in directly. They can't go home during this period, but you can visit at any time. The church will arrange food and accommodation and ensure that they are well taken care of."
The woman signed the contract without any hesitation. At the same time, she reluctantly told Li Wei and Fengzi to be obedient in the church, just like a real mother.
Of course, taking advantage of this gap, Li Wei also quietly stuffed the remaining three hundred yuan into the woman's hand. The two of them looked at each other tacitly and announced the success and end of the transaction.
Finally, a nun dressed as a nun took them into the church, where dozens of selected children had already stayed.
