”Speaking of which, why do you want this job? Where's your master?” Zhang Qian came back to her senses and realized that this matter was a little out of place. Why was she looking for a job at such a young age?
”About that … My family only has me and my brother …” Deng Fei scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
Those who were still enjoying the aftertaste nearly choked on their saliva. He didn't even notice when the bowl of porridge flowed out.
”You are an orphan? ”What about your brother?” The few of them looked at Deng Fei with a different expression, with a hint of pity and pity.
My brother is currently studying, so I have to work hard to earn money. In the second half of the year, he will be in middle school! ”My little brother is really amazing!” Deng Fei thought of his younger brother who had studied well and his expression became joyful. He only had one goal at the moment!
A few people had pity in their eyes. Coming out at such a young age to work for their younger brother to go to school, who would know the suffering behind this? Zhang Qian's eyes turned red from crying. At this moment, she felt as though her love for her mother was overflowing!
”Don't look at me like that! I really don't need your pity! My brother and I are very well off. We have food and clothes to eat, and although we can't compare to the others, we don't feel inferior! If all of you are just saying that you pity me, then I might as well leave! ” What Deng Fei couldn't stand was this kind of gaze, the moment he heard he was an orphan, this kind of gaze! He did not feel that he was living a bitter life. On the contrary, he was living a full and happy life every day.
”Child, you're right! ”You are very strong, but our work here is not easy. We have to do a lot of things every day. I wonder if you can do it …” Pan Jiang secretly nodded when he heard Deng Fei's words.
”Of course! I am confident on this point! ”
”It's good that you're confident. From today onwards, you will be my fifth disciple!”
”Ah?” ”I'm just here to apply …”
”If you have something to do, then I'll do it. Don't tell me you're not even willing to cook for Master?” Pan Jiang laughed as he toyed with Deng Fei. How could he possibly suffer a loss when he was his disciple? Initially, he had only started teaching martial arts to amuse himself. He did not expect to find such a kind-hearted and naive disciple who was in a good mood.
”It's not that I don't want to …” ”I just want to earn money to save up tuition for my little brother...” Pan Jiang had already left, leaving Deng Fei at a loss. He really liked the atmosphere here and felt that they were all good people. It would be great if he could become martial brothers, but this way, he wouldn't be able to earn money to read for his younger brother!
”Don't be so conflicted! Master will give us a thousand dollars worth of pocket money every month. Master is teasing you, so you have to have some! ” Chang Ming looked at the conflicted Deng Fei and explained with a smile. It was not bad to have such a Junior Brother. At least he could eat delicious food every day! Isn't that happy?
”One …” A thousand? pocket money? ” Deng Fei was stunned, he did not expect his teacher to be so generous, receiving money every month when he made a move! This greatly exceeded his expectations!
”Yes, you don't have to worry about that. Master has been very kind to us, we are all orphans. We are all orphans, so we just follow him.” Right, do you have any more omelet? Get me some more, I haven't even eaten anything! ” Zhu Di wiped the porridge on his clothes as he brooded over the memory of his juniors and juniors snatching away all their breakfast.
