She Is Not a Witch Chapter 258: The ‘porter’ in the alley
Alina, Lorrain Hill, and Lily walked down the street and continued to shop around.
Because this is the former capital, there will be some shops that are not available in small places, such as painting tools and materials shops, porcelain shops, poetry and book shops, etc. A few people can be said to be lingering, and time passes quickly.
They watched from house to house at first, but it was too time-consuming, and then they adjusted the interesting shops in to have a look. Unknowingly, it was 4-5 o’clock in the afternoon. Fortunately, it’s late in this season. Can stroll around for a while.
"Is this shop selling wine? It's a bit rare." Alina and Lily stood under a sign. The red, blue and green wine bottles formed the logo, and there was a line of "Mujinhua Winery" beside it. '.
"Go and see."
Several people walked in, Lily and Alina were full of interest, but Lorrain Hill walked out after watching a circle, she was not very interested in alcohol or anything.
"I'll wait for you outside."
"Hmm."
After speaking, she walked out, and the violent sunlight came into view again, causing her to pull the hat on her head a little, and then walked to the side alley, which was not exposed to direct sunlight, and it was cooler and more comfortable.
Now they are almost to the sea. Looking from the alley to the exit on the other side, they can see the faint water, guardrail, and blue sky.
Because I don’t want to be too eye-catching, when I went out today, Lorrain Hill added a light coffee-colored coat on the outside. The style is similar to a short robe. The coat is slightly longer than his own skirt and a little more than the knee. , With a hood on the upper body, which can be pulled up when it rains or the sun is violent. In the case of the front body, there is no button, revealing a part of the white skirt on the inside.
Seeing that Alina and Lily won't come out in a short time, Lorrain Hill leaned against the wall, raised one foot, moved and relaxed a little.
"Hey."
A voice came from not far away. The girl looked for the voice and raised her head, and found a figure protruding from the third floor of a house in the alley. He stretched out his hand from the window and waved to Lorrain Hill below.
Did you call me? The girl was a little uncertain, but there was indeed no one else here, and Lorrain Hill walked over with a little confusion.
The person who greeted him was a young man, about 20 years old, with a round face, and he looked blessed. When he saw the man in the hood coming over, he took out a rolled up blanket from the window and threw it down.
"Can you pick it up for me, this one is too long and the stairs are too narrow to move down easily." said the little fat man.
Lorraine Hill blinked, and while still thinking, the blanket had already been thrown down, and then it fell in front of her, raising a light cloud of dust.
"Thank you, I'll be here soon." Before Lorrain Hill could answer, the little fat man closed the window and seemed to be going downstairs.
Lorraine Hill stood here, a little hesitant, she turned to look outside the alley, scattered pedestrians walking across the street, occasionally one or two swept across the alley and saw this figure standing next to the blanket. Did not pay too much attention, and then continued to walk over.
After a while, there was a voice of speaking not far away.
"Mrs. Gothe, I have cleaned your fireplace."
"Ok, this is your reward."
"Thank you Mrs. Gothe, you can still find me if you need it in the future."
"Then I'll go first." There was a brisk footstep.
Soon after, the figure appeared at the entrance of the alley and walked over.
"Hey, good brother." After he came in, he looked at the blanket and Lorrain Hill intact, breathed a sigh of relief, and then approached.
When there was only 5-6 meters between the two, the little fat man could see Lorrain Hill's face clearly.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to be a girl." He stopped slowly, rubbing his hair a little embarrassedly.
After hesitating for a while, he took out a purse from his arms, took out a few silver coins from it, and then handed the rest to Lorrain Hill.
"Thank you for your help, then I will go first."
Seeing that Lorrain Hill did not answer, I felt a little embarrassed, then put down the money bag, picked up the blanket on the ground, and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, where do you want to move this?" Lorrain Hill finally said, this little fat man is not the kind of yellow-faced muscle that can't live, why do you want to do this kind of thing.
"Actually, I'm just a porter, moving it from one place to another." He turned around and explained.
"Then charge some more money?" Lorrain Hill looked at him amusedly.
"Ahem, transportation is also a kind of physical exertion. It shouldn't be too much to earn some compensation for this."
"But..."
Just when Lorrain Hill still wanted to ask, Alina and Lily had already walked out of the store. They turned around the alley without seeing Lorrain Hill and walked over.
"It turned out to be here, Lorraine." After the two came over, they looked at the little fat man curiously.
"Ah, there is a purse on the ground." Lily jumped and squatted down, picked it up, and the little fat man took advantage of this to walk quickly, preparing to leave the alley.
"Where do you want to go." Alina saw something was wrong at a glance, and then jumped to the front of the little fat man with a slight turn, blocking the way.
"I..... I'm just working to support my family, so let me go, ladies." He looked at such a quick Alina, knowing that the other person is not an ordinary person, and immediately begged for mercy.
"Hey, to support your family, how many people in your family do you need to raise?" Alina shook her finger, not believing it at all.
"Really, I have an old sister who can't get married, a younger sister who is weak and sick and can't survive, and there is a simple brother who is not deep in the world. All of them are supported by me."
He explained with a bitter face, and then turned his head to look at Lily and Lorrain Hill, perhaps because he thought these two would talk better.
"Don't be deceived by him. You are too immature to say this. At any rate, I have an 80-year-old mother and a wife and daughter waiting to be fed at home." Alina reminded.
"That would be too fake, giggle." Lorraine Hill laughed.
"But let's return the blanket, it's someone else's thing after all."
"No, I brought this by my ability, so why should I return it."
"But, this is not a legitimate way." After Lily had counted her wallet, she said, looking at the little fat man in front of her.
"What a proper way, the profiteer in this family is also smuggling, torturing and deducting his salary, none of them are leaked, and his things are not earned by proper means~ IndoMTL.com~ Why he is fair and honest, I just don’t Just right, no more." The little fat man said dissatisfied.
"Then you can go and sue him." Lily said simply.
"I'm just a small person, how dare I sue? Besides, even if I have real evidence, if I sue, I won't know where to lie down the next day."
"Talk to the sheriff."
"Then you want me to die."
...
Little Fatty argued with Lily, Alina helped her forehead watching this scene.
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Didn't you say you have to support your family? Take us to see your home."
"What are you doing?" The little fat man took two steps back vigilantly.
"Of course it is to verify the authenticity. If it is true, we will spare you this time." Alina patted her chest and said, as the captain's daughter, she has an extremely flexible moral concept.
