System: I open an inn in the desert

Chapter 83 Little Flower in the Desert

Lin Yu doesn't dare to agree now. They are very brave, but Boss Lin is still afraid. If something really happened, the salary he offered might not even be enough to pay for the medicine.

"Aunt Tana, I definitely can't let you go back to work now. You heard what the doctor said. You must go home and rest for a few days to make sure you are fine before you can come back to work."

Tana sat anxiously on the hospital bed and repeatedly promised: "Little boss, I promise that this will never happen again! I will eat well and have a good rest in the future. Please let me continue to do this job, please." You, I really can’t live without this job..."

"Aunt Tana, I'm not going to fire you, I'm just letting you rest for a few days. Your body is the capital of the revolution." Lin Yu had a headache, why couldn't he make sense.

"But I can't rest for a day. I really can't rest. Xiaohua is still waiting for the money to treat her illness." Aunt Tana said, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She quickly lowered her head and wiped her face randomly with both hands. But the more tears she wiped, the more she wiped them away. She did not raise her head again, and only a drop of tears fell on the quilt, turning into circles of water marks.

The aunt next to her opened her mouth, and Lin Yu raised his head and waved quietly to her.

But she relaxed when she said: "Aunt Tana, please go back and rest today, and check your physical condition tomorrow. If you think there is no problem, then come to the inn to work normally. But you are not allowed to work so hard anymore. You must rest when you should rest." , I will let Xiaolan supervise you."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Tana immediately raised her head, looked at Lin Yu gratefully with red eyes, and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, little boss, I will definitely not let this happen again in the future. I will definitely pay attention!" Holding both hands tightly Lin Yu was holding on with such strength that his fingers turned white, as if he was grasping a life-saving straw.

After the fluid was transfused, the doctor checked and confirmed that Aunt Tana had no major health problems and could go home to recuperate. The three of them were discharged from the hospital.

Lin Yu planned to send Aunt Tana home first, and then return to the inn with the other aunt.

The camels walked along the dirt road in the county town, all the way to the desert. The further we go, the more we go, and the more we go, the more desolate we become.

After walking for almost two hours, I finally saw the small village in the desert.

The village is so small that you can see the whole village at a glance, and there are only about a dozen households that are still living there and showing signs of activity. Aunt Tana's house is the smallest room among the dozen or so houses.

It was a small mud house with only one door and one window, with low eaves and a dark interior.

Lin Yu had to lower his head and bend his body to enter. It was still daytime outside, the sun was shining brightly, but the room was a little dim. The strong light difference made Lin Yu's eyes blurry for a moment. After a few seconds, his vision gradually became clear.

Only then did he see the whole room clearly——

To be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't imagine that in this day and age, there were still people living in such a house.

On the right side of the wall is an earthen kang made of yellow bricks, with its head and tail against the wall, and its width is within two meters by visual inspection.

On the left is a two-layered low cabinet with some daily sundries placed on it. Next to the cabinet are washbasins, brooms and other tools. This small area between the cabinet and the kang is the entire activity area.

Even though the quilts and pillows on the kang and every corner of the house were clean and orderly, they could not hide the family's poverty.

"Mom, you're back. Why are you back so early today?"

A girl's clear voice came from outside the door, and Lin Yu turned around to look -

The door frame, which was too low for him and required him to bend down to get over, was no hindrance to the girl. Lin Yu couldn't see the girl's face clearly because of the light behind him, but even judging from the voice and visual height, the girl looked about twelve or thirteen years old, with a slender figure and carrying a wooden barrel in her hand. .

The barrel must have some weight, but the girl was carrying it wobbly.

After seeing them, the girl was obviously stunned and stopped at the door.

Lin Yu took two quick steps and took the bucket from the girl's hand. It was more than half a bucket of clean water, and it should have been brought from the well in the middle of the village. I just don’t know why, but they didn’t meet this girl when they entered the village just now.

"Xiaohua, come and say hello to Boss Lin."

Lin Yu placed the barrel on the open space next to the cabinet. Apart from seeing a circular mark there, it was also because there was really no other place to put it in the room.

As soon as I turned around, I met the girl's red apple-like face.

The girl shyly wiped her hands on her clothes and whispered, "Thank you, Boss Lin. Hello, Boss Lin. Hello, Aunt Patty."

"Okay, okay, Xiaohua looks good today." Auntie Towel replied, "Oh no, her name is Patty." Boss Lin silently remembered the name of another employee.

"Hello."

"This is my daughter, Xiaohua, she is 15 years old this year."

Lin Yu was a little surprised. Because he opened a store near the school, he met a lot of students, and he guessed that they were generally around the same age. But this little girl who looks only 15 or years old is actually years old?

But Lin Yu didn't show his surprise. His eyes widened slightly for a moment and then returned to his original expression. After nodding slightly at the little girl, he handed them the medicine prescribed by the hospital.

"Aunt Tana, this is medicine prescribed by the hospital. How to take it and how much to take are written on the label. Look..." Lin Yu said a little unsure, because Zhang Lusheng had told him before that this The villagers' education level was very low, so they immediately changed the question: "Xiaohua should be literate."

"I know you, I know you. Our little flower's academic performance is very good, we are in the top three every time!" Aunt Tana said proudly, and her face also glowed.

"That's alright, Xiaohua, you can supervise your grandma to take her medicine on time. If she gets better tomorrow, let her go to work. If she's still like today, rest a little longer. I'll leave this task to you."

"Okay, Boss Lin, don't worry! I will supervise my grandma to take good care of her health. Please don't fire her. My grandma can do her job efficiently."

"Don't worry, Xiaohua, the little boss is nice and won't fire your grandma. But your grandma fainted on the ground today, so you have to take good care of her. If there's anything you can't handle, you can go to my house to find her. Brother Aishan, he came back early from vacation today." Patty touched the girl's somewhat dry braids and warned her with concern.

"Okay, thank you Aunt Patty."

Lin Yu suddenly realized that these two aunties were from the same village. No wonder they were willing to follow him around.

The two of them said goodbye to Aunt Tana's house. The girl followed them out and watched them go for a long time before returning to the house.
