MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 38 Sakai Xuena
(Thanks to the readers of 'Lonely Water Fountain' for the 500 starting point coins!)
"What's your name? My name is Minamino Shuuichi." Minamino Shuichi asked with a smile while looking at the girl sitting opposite him. Although this girl wears a little sour, she still looks very good. She's a girl who just looks like she wants to take care of her. Chu Chu is pitiful, yes, the delicate Chu Chu is pitiful.
The girl looked at Xiu Nanye with big watery eyes and said shyly: "Hello Nanye-kun, my name is Xuena Sakai."
"So your name is Sakai Xuena, why do you pick up things on the ground to eat, isn't it dirty?" Minano Shuichi asked, in fact, he guessed that Sakai Xuena must be poor to pick up things on the ground to eat. Seeing that she was still reluctant to eat the toast when she picked it up, maybe she wanted to leave it to her family.
"I..." Before she could say the words, Xuena Sakai burst into tears.
"Don't cry, don't cry, tell me." Minano Shuichi comforted.
Then she said everything about herself and her family. Sakai Xuena is 16 years old this year. His father went to sea a few years ago and never returned, and his mother died of illness a week ago. The family has a 13-year-old twin sister and a 10-year-old brother.
The parents died, the family had no source of income, and those relatives were unwilling to adopt them. At 16, she had to drop out of school to find a job to support her family. She came to Nemuro Fishing Port today to see if she could find a job, but unfortunately she hasn't found it yet. Originally, she wanted to go to the city to find a job, but unfortunately, once she entered the city, no one would take care of her younger sister and brother. So she could only come to Nemuro fishing port to find a job.
"What a poor baby, eat noodles first." Minami Shun pushed a bowl of noodles in front of Sakai Xuena.
"Thank you, Nanye-kun." Sakai Xuena wiped her tears, staring at this bowl of fragrant seafood ramen with her big watery eyes and swallowing.
"Eat, you're welcome."
"Thank you." Sakai Xuena didn't hold back after thanking her again. She picked up the chopsticks and ate it, obviously very hungry. She felt that she had met a nobleman today, and this nobleman was Shuichi Nanno.
Looking at Sakai Xuena, he remembered his girlfriend in his previous life. He found that Xuena Sakai and his girlfriend from the previous life were a little bit similar, not in appearance, but in character. They are all charming and pitiful.
"Eat slowly, don't choke, I'll order another bowl for you if one bowl is not enough." Seeing Xuena Sakai eating in a hurry, Minami Xiu showed a hint of doting in his eyes.
"Enough is enough." Sakai Xuena said happily. What is happiness? Sometimes it is also a kind of happiness to be able to eat a bowl of hot noodles.
"Nanye-kun, don't you want to eat it?" Seeing that there was a bowl of noodles in front of Nanye Xiuyi but didn't eat it, she was a little puzzled.
"I like watching you eat, you are beautiful."
"Is there? Thank you! Nanye-kun, you are the first person to praise me for being beautiful." Sakai Xuena laughed brightly. There was also a blush on his face.
"What are your plans in the future?" Minano Shuichi asked earnestly.
"I don't know, keep looking for a job." Sakai Xuena thought of the difficulties at home, her face darkened.
In later generations, 16-year-olds are basically going to school, so they don’t have to worry about anything, just spend their family’s money and get the people they like. But the 16-year-old Sakai Xuena has to shoulder the burden of a family. The key is that she needs to support her twin sister and a younger brother by herself. It is self-evident how heavy this burden is.
"What kind of work are you going to do?"
"I don't know, it would be nice to find it anyway." Sakai Xuena said.
"Why don't you give me a job." Minami Shuichi said.
"I work for Nanye-kun, I don't know what Nanye-kun does?" Sakai Xuena was interested. From the beginning, she thought that Shuuichi Minano must be a rich man, otherwise he would not just throw things away.
"I am a fisherman and have my own fishing boat." Minami Hideyoshi said.
"But I'm weak." Sakai Xuena was a little sad, she knew that most of the people going to sea were men. What can she do as a girl?
"I don't want you to do the labor for me, you just need to help cook on the fishing boat." Nanye Xiu said. He now owns a fishing boat himself and rents another boat. In this way, both fishing boats need people to cook. Now he has three women working for him, that is, Miyamoto Tamiko and Inoue Ami, and that woman named Takeno Miko Beiwan Fishing Village. Now it's just right to add another Sakai Xuena, and two women on a boat will be just right to cook.
"Can I?" Sakai Xuena's eyes lit up, she really needs a job now to support her family. Another is that she thinks Minano Shuichi is not a bad person and is trustworthy.
"Of course you can, as long as you can cook." Minano Xiuyi smiled.
"I will, I will!" Sakai Xuena said excitedly.
"Then it's settled. The monthly salary is 100 yen. I will go to sea in a few days. Where do you live, I will let you know when the time comes."
"I live in Hojo fishing village." Sakai Xuena replied.
"It's very close to my Beiwan fishing village. Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes. This is 100 yen, which is your first month's salary in advance." Nanye Shuichi took out 100 yen. Yuan placed it in front of Sakai Xuena.
"Minano-kun, this is not good. I haven't started work yet, how can I pay my wages in advance." Sakai Xuena pushed the money back.
"Okay, take it. Arrange everything at home, otherwise how can you work for me with peace of mind?" Nanye Xiuyi said with a stern face.
"Then thank you Nanye-kun, thank you for your trust and your care." Sakai Xuena's beautiful eyes were filled with tears again.
"Haha, what are you talking about? Are you full? If you're not, eat another bowl." Minami Shun pushed the bowl of seafood ramen in front of him to Xuena Sakai.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Sakai Xuena actually wasn't full enough, and she came out without eating for a day today.
"you eat."
"thanks."
"It's true that money can make my sister grind the mill!" Minano Shuichi exclaimed.
After Sakai Xuena finished eating, Minami Shuuichi sent her back, and also got to know her home by the way, so that she would come over to inform her in a few days.
When Minami Hideyoshi returned home, he saw that Miyamoto Yuko had already prepared the meal and was waiting for him. A sumptuous meal!
This period of RB Yuzi followed him, but he lived a very moist life, and the whole popularity was much better. That thin face has grown a little fleshy.
"Nano-kun, you're back, do you want tea or beer?" Miyamoto Yuko immediately brought his slippers to change for Nanno Hideyoshi after seeing Hideo Minami's return.
"Tea bar."
