Chapter 32 Wild Girl

  He, Guangya, a penniless and destitute person who has been deceiving others for food, drink, and shelter every day, now even wants his younger brother to go out and work to earn money, yet he is also being called out to beg for food?

  Does he look like a big shot?

  Kuo Chia turned his head and found that the one who had called out to stop him was a dark-skinned girl, almost black, probably only in her early twenties, looking healthy and robust, but covering her stomach, guessing she must be very hungry.

  Moreover, what made Guo Jia most concerned was that the girl was actually wearing animal skin?! In this era, there shouldn't be any clothes with leopard prints, right? Although she couldn't be considered a great beauty, her whole person had a kind of wild beauty that couldn't be found in other women.

  In Guo Jia's eyes, this was simply a real-life female Tarzan.

  "Can't you give me some food? I'm really hungry now. I'll pay you back once I've eaten!" the woman said as she walked up to him.

  "Wait a minute, I want to ask you a question first." Pointing around, Guo Jia asked curiously, "With so many people coming and going here, how did you pick me?"

  "Is this your maid?" The woman pointed to Ming'er beside her.

  Guo Jia: "Is it just because of this?"

  The woman continued to say

  "Look at her bloated belly, obviously she ate a lot just now."

  Her face turned red when she heard it tomorrow.

  Kuo Chia also reacted at this time

  "A servant girl can eat so much, so there must be no shortage of food and drink here. What a good eye!" Guo Jia exclaimed, and then went to take out the money. There's a saying that goes like this: "When you meet someone who wants money, give them food; when you meet someone who wants food, give them money."

  Seeing this, Ming'er hastily reminded him from beside,

  "Master, we..."

  They were originally struggling to make ends meet, and now they're expected to donate money to help others?

  Guo Jia directly stretched out his hand to interrupt Ming Er's words and handed a piece of silver to the other party.

  "Thank you!" The woman took it without hesitation, her face full of joy. "You're really a good person, just now I asked many people, they obviously had money and food, but none of them were willing to give me any, as if I wouldn't pay them back." The woman still seemed somewhat indignant when talking about these things.

  "Master!" Ming'er muttered beside him, stomping her foot. Indeed, Ming'er was just a little maid, lowly and timid...

  Guo Jia smiled and patted Ming Er's head, saying to the woman:

  "This is also normal, in today's world, apart from poor people who can't afford to eat, there are only rich people who lack benevolence."

  "Oh? Are there no good rich people anymore?" The woman couldn't help but ask.

  "It originally did exist, but gradually, this kind of person will become one of the two types mentioned earlier." Guo Jia replied.

  "Tomorrow we'll become one of those poor people!"

  "Hehe, don't worry, I'll return it to you, won't let you become a poor person. By the way, what's your name? Where do you live?" the woman asked with a smile.

  "My name is Guo Jia, style name Fengxiao. I live in the Cao Yong's mansion just ahead." said Guo Jia.

  "Oh, I remember." The woman nodded, "Anyway, I'm going to go buy something, I'm starving to death." She said, and was about to turn around and leave.

  "Wait." Guo Jia suddenly stopped him.

  "What? Are you going back on your word?" The woman clutched the silver tightly to her chest, as if Guo Jia was going to snatch it from her.

  "No, miss, you misunderstood. I just wanted to say that if you're hungry again and can't find anything to eat, you can come find me." Guo Jia said with a smile.

  "Ah, that was a misunderstanding on my part. I'm really sorry, you're indeed a good person." The woman scratched her head with some embarrassment.

  "By the way, Miss, are you living outside the city?" Guo Jia suddenly asked.

  "Yes, at first I heard that Zhongyuan was lively, so I came out to take a look. Who knew that the money I brought would be spent quickly? Then I hunted some wild beasts on the mountain to make a living. It was fine at first, but then suddenly there were so many people coming from somewhere, and the wild beasts on the mountain were all scared away by them. Plus winter arrived, and I also got hungry like them." The woman couldn't help but complain.

  "I see, it seems that the girl was also influenced by those refugees. However, those people have gradually dispersed, and by tomorrow's spring, I believe the girl will be able to live a good life again." Guo Jia comforted.

  "Yes, it's just that I don't know how to get through this winter. In our place, we often go hungry in the winter too, I didn't think it was the same outside," the woman said.

  "In that case, I wonder if Miss can help me with another matter?" Guo Jia said suddenly.

  "Whatever it is, just say it!" The woman patted her chest with a heroic gesture.

  "Would you be able to help me pick some beautiful wildflowers from outside the city every day, miss?" Guo Jia finally spoke out his intention.

  "Wildflowers?" The woman was taken aback, probably didn't expect that Guo Jia would ask her for this kind of help.

  "Yes, you also know that now winter has arrived, it's getting harder and harder to find a flower in the city," said Guo Jia.

  "What did you bring wildflowers for?" the woman asked curiously.

  "Send someone away!" said the person next to her in a calm and collected tone, raising an eyebrow. She couldn't understand at all why the young master would go out of his way for such a small matter and take care of this completely unfamiliar idle person!

  "Got it, can't be helped, I really have to go eat now." The woman responded with a sound and instantly ran out of sight.

  At this moment, Ming Er finally had a good talk with Guo Jia.

  "Master, do you know how much money we have left now?"

  "Little girl, it's good that you know how to manage the household, but don't be too calculating. Wealth is external to one's body, a thousand pieces of gold can be spent and then come back again, doing something meaningful is also a kind of investment." Guo Jia said.

  "Does picking flowers count as something meaningful?" Ming Er curled up her lips.

  "Heh heh, tomorrow, what do you think of that girl just now?" Guo Jia asked instead.

  "It shouldn't be a scam." Ming Er replied.

  "Yes, from my observation, I found that she is not the kind of person who cheats and takes advantage of others, but rather knows how to make a living through hard work; from our conversation, I also found that she is a straightforward person who speaks her mind. People like this often remember kindness and repay it, don't look at the fact that I only gave her one or two silver coins now, in the future it may play an unexpected role." Guo Jia explained.

  "Now it's just one or two, but if she comes to deliver flowers every day, who knows how many there will be." Ming Er couldn't help but say that if it was only this one-time charity, then she wouldn't have such a big opinion.

  "Sending flowers, hehe, that's just an excuse. Firstly, it saves me the trouble, and secondly, it maintains this connection. Even if I take a step back and say she might not be able to help me in the future, or even if she's here to cheat me out of money this time. Think about what she said at first, if you were me, what would you do?" Guo Jia asked back.

  Tomorrow, his eyes lit up suddenly.

  "I get it! If she's not a scammer, then by sending flowers every day, she'll definitely return the money as she said. And if she is a scammer, would she dare to keep sending flowers?!"
