"So, contractor, how do you charge for it?"

"This ······" The woman paused, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Well, I have to go to the field to investigate, and the specific situation will be analyzed on a case-by-case basis." Can't generalize"

"That's right. Tian Tian looked a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, she asked a little unwillingly, "Then, how much do you usually have a set?"

For example, for a two-bedroom of 70 or 80 square meters, we charge 80 yuan, a three-bedroom of 100 square meters is about 100 yuan, and a four-bedroom of less than 120 is about 120 yuan······ And so on. ”

At this time, Tian Tian's brain nerves were running rapidly, calculating.

After pondering for a moment, she smiled, and decisively decided, "Then, I still have to work part-time." ”

So, she hired eight people.

After everything was negotiated and a form was filled out as usual, Tian Tian got up and was about to leave.

At this time, the woman smiled and said, "Sorry, Miss, we have a rule here, you have to pay a deposit of 100 yuan first." ”

"Deposit?" Tian Tian couldn't help but look at her with some surprise, "Eh! I'm sorry!"

I had no choice but to sit down again, and took out a hundred-dollar bill from the bag I was carrying with me and handed it to the other party.

The woman took the money and used a thumb-sized laser flashlight to shine it at the bottom right corner of the banknote.

Tian Tian understood that she was following the anti-counterfeiting mark, which was probably distinguishing the authenticity.

However, she couldn't help but put a big question mark in her heart: "Can this work?"

After careful screening by the woman, the bill passed strict verification and was placed in a drawer. Then, she filled out a receipt and handed it to Tian Tian with a smile.

Tian Tian quickly glanced at the contents of the receipt, and solemnly put it into his bag.

"Well, you can go back first, and they'll be there. The woman snorted.

"Okay. Then I'll go first. ”

Tian Tian smiled and waved his hand at her.

Tian Tian walked out of the gate and stepped on his bicycle parked at the door to go home.

Soon after she returned home, she heard the sudden sound of tractors from far and near at the gate of the courtyard, and then there was a noise of chirping.

Tian Tian subconsciously looked at the door, and saw that a group of men and women walked into the courtyard gate with various cleaning tools in their hands.

There is no doubt that they were sent by a housekeeping company.

She thought to herself, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"We are honest housekeeping companies. A forty-seven or eighteen-year-old man at the head introduced her with a smile.

"Well, okay. ”

Tian Tian glanced at these men and women, who were fat or thin, tall or short, old or young, and agreed.

It seems that the eldest of these people is in his fifties, and the youngest is thirty-seven or eighteen years old.

Looking at the somewhat shabby dress and the dark and simple face, there is no doubt that they are all poor peasants from the countryside.

At this time, Tian Tian found that they were all carrying a huge kettle without exception.

Oh, it's quite thoughtful!

She silently counted the number of people in her heart, no more, no less, exactly eight, three men and five women.

"Could you please take me to see it? The man grinned and suggested.

"Okay. Follow me. ”

So, he put down a tan plastic bucket in his hand, and after instructing them to wait here, he followed Tian Tian upstairs.

Downstairs came Mandarin with a strong hometown accent, and the voice was especially loud, like a tweeter.

Based on so many years of experience, Tian Tian guessed that these people were very likely to be from Henan. Henan people are familiar with hardships and hard work.

After the two of them walked up the stairs, the man looked at it layer by layer, room by room, and then quickly came down from the upper floor.

I saw that he stood generously in front of the group of people, clapped his hands and said loudly:

"Quiet! Quiet! Everyone, stop. I just looked at it, there are four floors here, sixteen rooms, it seems that we are short of time today! We are still working from top to bottom, layer by layer, as before, and everyone is working together. Originally, I planned to have three people in charge of the first floor, but I looked at it and thought to myself, because it was too dirty, and besides, especially the window glass, the glass was very dirty, and there were cement, glue, tape and other attachments. As we all know, this is extremely difficult to get rid of. Now it's distributed like this, five people on the top floor and three people below. After the top floor is done, divide two people into the lower floor, and then, and so on. You, you, you, you, and you, to the top floor. The rest to the bottom. ”

As he spoke, he solemnly nodded five people into the crowd.

So, they each took the tools in their hands and talked and laughed upstairs.

The man who led the team at the back looked back and saw Tian Tian standing in place, and couldn't help but quip: "Don't worry! ”

Immediately, there was a hearty laugh in the corridor.

"Okay. Please, everyone!"

Tian Tian looked at their backs and said.

So, she turned and walked to the room.

Seriously, she was tired and wanted to take a break.

As soon as she got home, she suddenly found that she was so thirsty that her throat was almost smoking, so she quickly poured a glass of water and drank it.

It's like a long-dry farmland encountering a torrential rain, and suddenly, she feels very hearty. In one word, cool.

I don't think they need to supervise them like an overseer!

Tian Tian leaned back in the chair and crossed his hands on the back of his head, thinking.

But after thinking about it, no, I didn't contract the work to them, and I was charged by the hour.

It stands to reason that most people will be proactive and responsible, but it is not excluded that there are a few speculators who play tricks, deliberately grind foreign workers, and slack off their duties.

Thinking of this, Tian Tian couldn't sit still, and quickly got up and went out.

After a while, she ran up to the fourth floor in one go.

In the dusty room, they were busy in their places.

Some are holding rags to wipe glass, some are squatting on the floor and using small shovels to shovel out cemented cement or lime blocks, some are carrying small buckets to wash the stone dust and other garbage in the windows, grooves and ditches, and some are standing on the high stairs to wipe the cabinets······

Seeing this situation, Tian Tian couldn't help but blush for his "belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain".

Because of the dust, Tian Tian instinctively closed her lips and held her breath.

At this time, the man who led the group found her standing at the top of the stairs.

So, she nodded to the man, grinned slightly, and said, "Hard work!"

The man smiled, "Oh! Looks like you still can't trust us." Besides, if you are not satisfied with the work, you can complain to our company. It's so dirty, it's so dusty! How can you do it without a mask?"

After hearing this, Tian Tian smiled a little embarrassedly.

So, he turned and walked downstairs.

She subconsciously brushed the raging dust that was digging into her nostrils with her hand.

Suddenly, a loud sneeze startled her when she had just walked to the second floor.

Tian Tian walked to the courtyard, raised his wrist to look at his watch, thought about it, and walked out of the door.

After a while, she came to the bustling vegetable market. She walked around, picked up a few of her favorite dishes, and prepared to go back with them.

But as soon as she looked up, she saw a proprietor she hadn't seen for a long time.

I really didn't expect to meet him here, Tian Tian couldn't suppress his excitement.

The other party was also very happy, and had to warmly invite her to his house for lunch.

Tian Tian finally postponed it, and said that there were things to do at home, and he had to watch them.

So, the two of them stood there and talked for a long time.

It turned out that the proprietor's family had moved. Not long ago, I just moved here, and I was in a nearby community.

When they were separated, he also specially instructed: "You must come to the house often, your family will miss you very much!"

Tian Tian nodded very movingly and said, "Okay, I'll definitely go when I'm free." ”

On the way home, Tian Tian couldn't help but think of the days when he worked in his house, the people in that family were really good, treating her like a relative, really, completely respecting and loving her as a family member, which is commendable.

You know, in some people's homes, no matter how good you are or how long you do it, they will always reject you, despise you, and even look down on you as a three-year-old.

For example, if a child is mischievous and you criticize her, she will glared at you and yelled domineeringly, "Why do you care about me? You're just a babysitter in our house!"

After listening, you only have to be speechless, dare to be angry but dare not speak, and at the same time, silently shed two lines of aggrieved tears.

yes, who calls themselves just a humble nanny?

Once the floodgates of memory are opened, they come like a flood.

The once happy, sad, frustrated, and angry piles of past events come to mind like a movie, vividly, as if it happened yesterday.

Unconsciously, Tian Tian came to the gate of the courtyard that he was very familiar with.

She thought about it, put the dish down, went to the commissary, and asked for a box of mineral water.

After Tian Tian paid the money, she begged the shopkeeper to give it away. Because she really didn't have the strength.

When she returned to the courtyard, she was embarrassed to ask him to go to the top floor, and told him to bring a message and ask the people who worked to drink as they pleased.

I thought that the shopkeeper would flatly refuse or be impatient, but unexpectedly, he climbed upstairs quickly without saying a word.

Tian Tian said "thank you" and went back happily.

She really didn't want to climb that high.

After lunch, for some reason, a wave of sleepiness hit, so she lay on the table and took a nap.

Originally, she just wanted to squint for five minutes, not wanting to ······
