so that they can build up enough money to buy the land of there dream. this was the American dream.
George and Lennie, the main characters in John Steinbeck's novel "Of Mice and Men," come from a town called Weed in California. They find work on a ranch in Soledad, California, at the beginning of the story.
George and Lennie come to Soledad in search of work as ranch hands during the Great Depression. They hope to earn money to achieve their dream of owning their own piece of land and living off the fruits of their labor.
George knew Lennie's Aunt Clara when she passed away Lennie just went with George to work.
go hide in the bush until george come for him
because he doesn't trust Lennie for it, he thinks that Lennie would lose it.
The town from which George and Lennie are fleeing at the beginning of the novel is called Weed. They left Weed because Lennie's actions involving a woman's dress caused trouble and led to them escaping to find work elsewhere.
The boss suspects that George is taking advantage of Lennie by making decisions for him and speaking on his behalf. He questions the nature of their relationship and whether George is exploiting Lennie in some way.
beacuse they had to more days to work beacuse they showed up on a friday
George tells Lennie to just stand there and not say anything until after they get jobs and work for a little while.
Because of Lennie's simple mind, when Lennie's aunt passed away George promised to look after him and so when ever Lennie gets in trouble George has to help him get out of it. And also when they first come to work at the ranch the boss asks George who Lennie is to him he says hes his cousin. George mainly started looking after Lennie was when they were young George asked Lennie to jump into the river as a joke and he did. George didn't know he would and Lennie couldn't swim either so he had to go save him. from then on he never joked around like that with Lennie again. So not only they are companions but they pretty much family now.
because they were to dumb to read the book
Whit says that George and Lennie should come to work because there is an opportunity to make extra money by working overtime that day at the ranch. He mentions that it's a chance to earn more wages, which could benefit both George and Lennie.
