Chapter 19: The Beginning of Everything Is Difficult
Baojun didn't know what was going on, 1 month could make such a resolute girl so haggard, just now when he was eating, he saw that her index finger nails had turned gray, and they had been warped and separated from the flesh, as if they had been run over or smashed by some door or hard object, he sighed in his heart
"I can't imagine how she worked during this time" , but seeing that Su Feng didn't tell him what he meant, he didn't continue to ask, what needs to be solved now is Su Feng's work, in fact, the shed where they live is also set up temporarily, because the mobility of workers is large, and the employer is not fixed, so basically where to work during this time, he will find a vacant land in the nearby shantytown to temporarily build a big shed, and when the work of this employer is over, they will go elsewhere, because the employer does not need to cover food and housing, so the salary will naturally be more, Baojun studied until he graduated from junior high school, and he is also literate in the eyes of his fellow villagers, so some things will naturally let him come out to negotiate, and over time, He is also one of their contract foremen, but although he is a contract foreman, but these people also have their own hearts, not everything is under the command of Bao Jun, hearing Bao Jun suggest that everyone open a group together, and hire Su Feng to come over to cook, there are 4 people who are immediately unhappy, these 4 people are not from the same village as Bao Jun, they also met on the way to the city, there are many good people, and slowly walked with Bao Jun, and now I heard that not only to pay for food but also to pay the salary of the woman in the morning, the big guy immediately objected, and one of the older Gong Lao Er said resolutely
"Brother Jun, it's true that we are working with you, but the wages are all cash-struck, and it's not you who pays the salary, I think there's nothing wrong with us eating our own now, you can buy whatever you want, why do you have to afford to put everyone together with a moth, and pay people wages for nothing, besides, even if you don't talk about paying salaries, let's eat together once a day, or eat three meals together, how to pay for food, whether to eat more and pay more, or not to eat and not pay, and how to calculate if you don't eat meat and vegetables, isn't this all a problem?" Gong Lao Er's mouth seemed to have pulled out the safety bolt, and he suddenly said a series of problems, and everyone started to coax after hearing it
"Brother Jun, you can't let us put money in just because you want to find a daughter-in-law!" Baojun's face was red and white for a while, he didn't expect Gong Lao Er to say this kind of thing, although he also knew that he was a little strong, some people came out to work just to make money to support their families, and if they could save it, some people just didn't want to live a hard life facing the black soil with their backs to the sky, and wanted to come out chic, but he was really for the good of the big guys, if everyone started together, and then negotiated the daily vegetable money, so that the people in the province would not be hungry, and the people who squandered would not have a dime left, how could it be appropriate, but just now Gong Lao Er's question really made him speechless for a while, and Baojun stopped talking, and those who disagreed dispersed in a hurry, and they all took the opportunity to sneak out of the shed, Shunzi who followed behind was a little difficult, he didn't know whether to go or stay, Shunzi and Huazi and Baojun are pure fellow villagers, neighbors in the front and back yards, when they came out to work, if they hadn't followed Baojun all the way, he didn't know how many times he had been beaten by these people, but if he insisted on supporting Shunzi, he was also afraid of offending the second child of the palace, after all, every time this group of people went out to drink a little wine and go to the dance hall to dance, Shunzi would also follow to eat and drink.
Just as he was thinking about it, Huazi walked up to Baojun and asked in a low voice
"Brother Jun, what's the situation, what is the relationship between the two of you, why do you want to get people here all of a sudden?", Baojun said in a fifteen-ten
"We have nothing to do with each other, it's just that I took leave to go back on a blind date last month, you know, it's her, but people didn't fancy me, so it didn't work out. ”
"Then there's no reason to help her!" Huazi continued, Baojun stammering a little
"I just think she's quite pitiful, the matchmaker said before, she lived in her brother's house before, it seems that she was bullied a lot, and she went to live at her sister's house again, and she is not too young, but she has never been married, this must be something happened to the family, or she can't run out alone, you said how difficult it is to stand in this city, I just want to help her, you didn't look at her fingers, and she was worried when she looked at it", Hua Zile was happy
"Yes, I understand, you haven't died to others, then you are impulsive enough, look at these few of us, all of them have ghost eyes, you let them go out to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, all of them are poor and generous, but if you pay a dime for business, you will have to die of distress", Baojun frowned in embarrassment, he didn't know how to explain to Su Feng, and blamed himself for not thinking about it, Huazi saw Baojun's entanglement, and immediately encouraged
"Brother Jun, what do you say, I'll do it, anyway, I'm not hungry for the whole family to eat alone, I'll join the gang with you", Baojun looked at Huazi gratefully, he and Huazi are small, one year older than him, Huazi has been close to him since he was a child, whether it is stealing delicious food or being beaten, the two must suffer together, Huazi smiled
"In the future, I will have everything for my brother to pick up a few more carriages, no need to say thank you", Baojun was amused by Huazi's heartwarming humor, and Junzi listened to the words of the two, and also changed his mind and responded to the road
"Brother, I'll join you too, but is it too much money to pay?
"Hahaha, you kid is quite a ghost, what's the matter, you still want to eat white food!" Huazi laughed, Baojun hurriedly took over the conversation,
"I found Su Feng, you two don't have to worry about her salary or anything, and you don't have to bear it, just share the money for groceries and meals every day", Huazi immediately refused
"That's not good, let's join together, then we have to share everything together, how can you bear it yourself", Baojun shook his head and replied firmly
"This matter has been decided, you two have already helped me a lot!" In the end, the three brothers agreed to pay 8 yuan per person for food a day, and then discussed which fire to start a thing, the three of them used the extra tarpaulin and wood next to the shed, and set up a shack in an afternoon, put on a wire, and went to the scrap yard to buy back an old iron pot, an old rice cooker, and then went to the small commodity market to buy pots and pans and bedding, the small shack was tossed by a few people at the moment there was fireworks, Huazi smiled and quipped
"Everything is ready, just wait for my sister-in-law to come over tomorrow!", Baojun hurriedly made a gesture to cover his mouth
"Don't talk such nonsense, this is going to be heard by the family, why do you think about me!", Huazi and Junzi couldn't help laughing
"Okay, don't call it sister-in-law, what do you call it!",
"I don't know what it's called, I don't know what it's called", and several people spent the whole afternoon in the shack.
