Chapter 8: The Years Are Quiet
Poplar sent me home, only we never had contact again that day.
"Shen Xuanhan, you demon, I don't want to see you now, I will repay you as soon as possible the money I borrowed!" I scolded Shen Xuanhan on the phone.
"What's the matter, my darling!" he said with a hippie smile.
"Is that photographer you're looking for? He's a hooligan. ”
"You can't blame me for this, it's what you are willing to do, it's your willingness, if you want to hate you, you hate yourself, you want money so much!" Listening to his nonsense on the other end of the phone, I hung up the phone fiercely, and from then on, we had no more contact except to pay back his money.
And my life is in trouble again, I have done sales, sold insurance, but because of eloquence, the basic salary is too low, I started again, selling buildings and cars, but because of the depression of the market, the money I earned was only enough to eat and drink, but I was also very content with such a dull life, busy work every day, squeezing around in the bus, I didn't feel tired, but felt very fulfilling, because life was like this.
After I stabilized, I took a job as a clerk, because I had the foundation to study literature, and coupled with my earnestness, my life gradually improved. At this time, my colleague Lu Zhihao also took good care of me.
"Lan Lan, today is your birthday!" Lu Zhihao said to me.
"Really?" I had forgotten about it.
"Look at you Ma Daha!" he looked at me gently, "please eat hot pot in the evening." ”
"Okay, okay, I'm in for a treat, it's my birthday. ”
Then we went to Sichuan-style hot pot together, but I didn't expect that the careful Lu Zhihao also brought me a small cake, and it would take a while before the hot pot was served, Lu Zhihao said to me, "Lan Lan, I'm hungry, can we eat cake?"
"Of course, you're welcome!" I said, taking my knife and fork and preparing to divide the cake.
"No, let me come, how can you let the birthday star do it himself?" Lu Zhihao snatched the knife and fork and said to me.
He cut me a rose-shaped cake with countless beautiful petals and fruits.
"Thank you!" I took it and began to taste it in small sips, it was very sweet, glutinous and fragrant, and I ate it with relish
Lu Zhihao looked at me with a smile and didn't speak.
Suddenly, I was knocked on the ground by something hard, what is this? I spit it out and saw that it was a ring.
"Lu Zhihao, this is ......" I was stunned for a moment.
Lu Zhihao still looked at me with a smile, and I suddenly understood everything without speaking.
"Lan Lan, marry me!"
Lu Zhihao held my hand and said to me sincerely.
At this time, the birthday song sounded, everyone around was holding it, a small orange lantern walked towards me, these faces who didn't know each other, all smiling, looking at me, and then they said marry him, marry him, this is a few of Lu Zhihao's buddies, we have eaten together.
Such a romance, my eyes were a little wet, I just nodded silently, Lu Zhihao put on a ring for me, I think I am the happiest person today.
Lu Zhihao sent me to the door of the house, and then went back to where he lived, he said to take good care of me, and to save all the good things until the wedding day.
During this period of his care, I lived very happily, he picked me up and commuted to work every day, we walked in the park together, watched the fountain, the days were delicious, I thought, I will also be like an ordinary ant tribe, so settle down in this city, and then work hard.
But reality shattered my dreams once again.
"Lan Lan, are you there?" said her mother on the other end of the phone.
"Mom, what's wrong?" I asked eagerly.
"Do you know? Your brother and one of their girlfriends have children, and the woman's family now says that they must pay 100,000 yuan from our family to get married, and they say that they can't get it, so they will make the child in the belly with the money, and your father is sick for this. ”
My mother's words surprised me, because my brother is almost forty years old now, and my brother is not very good at speaking because he has been a rabbit since he was a child, because our family is too poor, and we have never married a daughter-in-law, and now we finally have a partner, but because our family has no money, this kind of thing happens.
But what can I do as a girl!
I can't discuss this matter with Lu Zhihao, I know that his family is also a farmer, he has just worked for a few years, and he has no savings, so I am so anxious that I can't do anything.
So I looked for some job postings on the Internet every day, hoping to earn some part-time extra money.
One day, I saw a part-time job post that said that I was looking for a model, and I thought back to my last experience, thinking that this time it should be safe.
I came to the application location as required, and this time they were promoting an underwear company, and there was a shortage of manpower, so I passed the test very smoothly.
You can earn two or three hundred after a show, which is much better than going to work.
In order to make money, I have done underwear model shows, car models, and some dancing models at some large-scale exhibitions, and I have also done etiquette.
As a girl from the countryside, I may feel a little shy to dress at three points, but I have completely ignored it for money.
