Just after six o'clock in the morning, Chen Dainan's mobile phone that was thrown on the stool next to the bed suddenly rang without warning.

Struggling to open her eyes, she thought she had set the alarm clock to go off. After touching her phone, she stared at the screen in confusion for a long time before she realized that someone had called her.

"Hey. ”

"Sister Nan, are you up?"

Scratching the answer button, Chen Dainan responded weakly. However, it took a long time on the other end of the phone to ask such a sentence inexplicably.

Chen Dainan immediately sat up from the bed and asked, "What's wrong?

There was a long silence on the other end of the line, and a faint choked voice could be heard.

"Sister Nan, I won't go to the base again in the future. ”

"Okay, I got it. ”

The other party finally mustered up the courage to say what he wanted to say, Chen Dainan felt sad but not surprised. This is the third time this month that she has faced such a dilemma, but the first two little girls told her on WeChat. It seems that today's little girl should have been forced to make a decision temporarily, and she may not even have slept well all night.

"Sister Nan, I'm sorry, woo woo......"

Chen Dainan's overly gentle attitude made the little girl on the other end of the phone unable to hold back her tears.

In an instant, Chen Dainan's whole person was awake from crying, and hurriedly comforted and persuaded him: "It's okay, it doesn't matter, you don't have any psychological burden, it was originally voluntary by everyone, and it is normal that you can't participate in something now." ”

Hearing this, the little girl cried even harder, and she cried so much that Chen Dainan's head was big.

"Okay, don't cry, it's really okay, you don't have to say anything in the group, I'll explain it to them. ”

"Thank you, Sister Nan. ”

In the little girl's intermittent choked voice, Chen Dainan hung up the phone. Sitting on the edge of the bed for a moment, he had to get up immediately and prepare to go to the base.

I don't know what's going on this month, but three members have quit one after another.

Today was supposed to be the little girl who called her just now and another boy who was in charge of taking care of the base, but now she suddenly called and said that she couldn't go, so she could only take care of it temporarily. Although she can work the afternoon shift today, the location of the base is very remote, and she must leave immediately, otherwise she will be late for work in the afternoon. I hope that no one will quit for the next period of time, otherwise they will really not be able to survive as a relief organization.

After washing up in a hurry, before going out, Chen Dainan decisively wiped a circle of cool oil around his eyes, and his eyes were suddenly stimulated to tears. This is an artifact that she uses for daily refreshment, and the effect is quite good. She had only slept for more than four hours last night, and she had slept very poorly. One is a new environment that has just changed to some beds, and the other super typhoon transit is really not covered, and the sound of ping-pong is everywhere all night.

Chen Dainan held an umbrella and trotted all the way to the bus stop, just in time to catch the bus he was going to take. I don't know if it's too early or because of a super typhoon, there is still a spare seat in the car. There is no need to transfer from the rental house she rents to the base, but the site is long. When she was looking for a house before, she had already considered both the job and the base as much as possible.

opened WeChat, Chen Dainan was about to go to the group to post a notice that a member had withdrawn, only then did he see a person named Hua Rui add his WeChat, and his brain was stunned for a moment before he realized who Hua Rui was.

After adding Hua Rui's WeChat, and then sending a notification in the group, his frizzy grass-like hairstyle was reflected on the mobile phone screen, and Chen Dainan suddenly realized that he should cut his hair short. One is easy to take care of, and the other is to take care of it.

The bus became more and more remote, and it took an hour and a half for Chen Dainan to ring the bell and get off. After getting off the bus, it was almost twenty minutes of walking.

The base is tucked away in a relatively secluded nest at the foot of the mountain, formerly an orchard. Although the owner of the orchard no longer comes to manage it, he has no intention of transferring it and letting the fruit trees in the orchard grow freely.

This place was introduced and rented to them by the volunteers in the group, and there are several very simple sheds in the garden, which is a very good place for the base to stay. Therefore, everyone is very grateful, and when they have enough time, they will consciously help clean up the weeds in the orchard and take care of the fruit trees.

The orchard covers an area of twenty or thirty acres, but they only fence around the shed with barbed wire to create enough space for dozens of stray dogs. Separated from the separate area little by little, put on a canvas to cover the rain, barely meet the operation of the base and the daily survival of the dogs.

One is limited manpower and material resources, and the other is the fear that if it is too high-profile, it may attract unnecessary trouble, or even be driven away.

Hearing Chen Dainan's footsteps from afar, the dogs in the base began to make a fuss.

When Chen Dainan appeared in sight, the dogs immediately jumped up and down excitedly, and their tails wagged like propellers.

Chen Dainan smiled and rubbed the two handfuls of the little earth dog closest to him, "Are you hungry? After that, I walked to the storage room, put on my apron and prepared to start feeding the dogs.

The boy on duty hadn't arrived yet, and because she had to go to work in the afternoon, she wanted to do as much as she could first, otherwise it wouldn't be fair to that boy.

Change the water and food, do sanitation and cleaning, soak and wash out the blankets and towels that are too dirty to continue to use, and then spray the whole base with disinfectant water. After all of this, you can give medicine to some dogs that need to be medicated, and finally let the dogs take turns to run and jump and move freely.

Li Chengxuan arrived at the base at almost eleven o'clock, and Chen Dainan had just finished spraying disinfectant.

The two of them gave medicine to all the dogs that needed to be medicated, and then ran out of the base with five or six dogs.

"Sister Nan, why didn't Arlene say that she wouldn't come, and she wouldn't say hello in advance. Li Chengxuan didn't ask in front of him, and his tone was somewhat unhappy.

"I guess the family knows that the opposition is stronger. Chen Dainan didn't explain too much, Li Chengxuan is still in college, and he has more free time. She knows that he is very attentive to the base, but there will always be all kinds of helplessness in life.

Li Chengxuan didn't seem to be convinced by this explanation, and asked, "Then don't the people in your family object?"

"How can you not object? My circle of friends directly blocked all of them, and when I usually came to the base, I said that I was going to work or training. ”

"No wonder, but it's great that you've been able to hide it for so long. Li Chengxuan looked impressed.

"It doesn't matter after that, no one can take care of me. Chen Dainan smiled, hiding a trace of loneliness in her eyes. can hide it for so long, naturally because those people don't care about her affairs at all.

"Why?" Li Chengxuan didn't quite understand the meaning of Chen Dainan's words.

But Chen Dainan didn't plan to say anything more, "What's the why." He took a few dogs and began to trot around the orchard, "Come on, come on, run up, and have a good movement." ”

Chen Dainan had to rush to the store before three o'clock, afraid of traffic jams on the road, so he hurriedly left around twelve o'clock. She was worried that Li Chengxuan would not be able to cope with it alone in the afternoon, so she temporarily found a volunteer in the group who could spare time in the afternoon to come over to help.

Hurried all the way, and Chen Dainan arrived at the store at about 2:40. I ate a few small breads when I transferred in the middle, and lunch was dealt with like this.

During this time period, there are a lot of online and offline guests, and it is just in time for the handover. Chen Dainan didn't even have time to sit down, so he began to get busy.

It wasn't until after five o'clock that the store became a little more relaxed.

Chen Dainan looked at the time, took over the work in front of the counter, and asked the other clerks to start queuing for dinner.

Zheng Yingwen packed up a few cups and came over to clean them, and while washing, she looked at Lu Yingying who was eating from time to time. Seeing her chatting and laughing with the two male clerks while eating, she couldn't help but lower her voice and reminded Chen Dainan, "Sister Nan, I think you'd better be careful." ”

Chen Dainan blinked his eyes a few times, and showed a frightened look very cooperatively, "Be careful, it's not dark yet, and it's not this time to tell ghost stories." ”

Zheng Yingwen held back a smile and nodded in the direction of Lu Yingying, "I'm asking you to be careful of that Lu Yingying, I think she seems to be deliberately targeting you." I don't know what kind of funny topic was being discussed, but the three of them were laughing and rolling back and forth.

Chen Dainan frowned slightly, but it was not because of the information revealed in Zheng Yingwen's words. Fortunately, Lu Yingying and the others knew how to restrain themselves, and they suppressed some excessive laughter in time. She let out a breath and replied, "Isn't she the same as you all at work?"

"Where? I wouldn't be as pleasing as she was. Zheng Yingwen frowned, her tone somewhat disdainful.

Chen Dainan was helpless, smiled and shook her head, "She just wants to have a good relationship with her colleagues." After speaking, he took the few cups that Zheng Yingwen had just washed and put them away.

"She's so deliberate, it's absolutely impossible for her to just want to have a good relationship. Zheng Yingwen insisted on her opinion.

Hearing this, Chen Dainan couldn't help but stop the work in hand, and said seriously but gently: "She is a relative of the executive, so naturally she has to work harder and harder than us to convince everyone." As for you saying that she is staring at me, it may be because she is going to be the manager of a new store in the future, so now she will silently absorb some experience by herself. ”

"Is that so?" Zheng Yingwen looked at Chen Dainan, and then at Lu Yingying, and always felt a little weird in her heart, "No matter what, you can't be wrong if you are careful, I still think there is something wrong with her." ”

Chen Dainan gently pushed Zheng Yingwen's arm, "Okay, let's go to work, when they finish eating, it's our turn to eat." ”
