Chapter 11 Dad, my daughter feels sorry for you
What the hell happened to Dad? Dad, where have you been?" asked Lan to burst into tears. Her first instinct was to go to the consignment station and look for it, which was the only place to look.
She trotted all the way to the consignment station, which was pitch black, and the guards had turned off the lights and knocked on the door without responding. Could something happen to her father? That's when she longed to have a cell phone. She calmed down and decided to immediately report the case and ask for help from the police, and then go to various hospitals. She stopped a motorcycle and said, "Master, can you take me to the police station?"
"What are you doing there?" the motorcyclist looked suspicious.
"I went to report the crime, and my dad was gone. Wen Lan looked very anxious.
"Does your dad have Alzheimer's?" asked the motorcyclist.
"No, I was watching the gate at the consignment station opposite, and I should have gone home today, but I couldn't see my home. ”
"Then you'll go to the owner of the shipping station. "Motorcyclists obviously don't want to help.
"Master, please, just take me to the police station, I don't know the place here, I really can't find a place. Wen Lan was sweating.
"Oh, figure it out yourself, I've got something to do. The motorcyclist drove away after saying that.
Maybe it's because of the remoteness of the place, and there is no taxi, otherwise you will call the police and go to the nearby hospital. Wen Lan was so anxious that she turned around, and there was a feeling that she should not be able to call the earth and the earth every day.
There was a small supermarket not far away with the door still open, and she walked over to ask the cashier at the door, "Have you seen the gate at the consignment station?"
"You said that the new old man, this Chinese New Year is seen every day, this old man is very kind, very good, came to me to buy fermented bean curd. ”
"He's my dad, he should have gone home today, but he hasn't been seen yet, have you seen him?" asked Lan to burst into tears.
"Can't be reached by phone?" said the cashier.
"Can't be contacted, neither my dad nor I have cell phones. Did you see where he went today?"
"I seem to have seen it coldly this morning, but I didn't pay attention to it, and I didn't know it at night, and I saw that the consignment station was dark at night. ”
"Where is my dad going now?"
"I remembered it, as if I saw him get into a car. ”
"When did you get in the car?" and which direction did you go?" asked Lan couldn't help but light up her eyes, maybe she had found a clue.
"Noon, I'm not sure, maybe before noon, it's definitely not afternoon or evening, but I don't know where I went. ”
Q Lan thought, Dad has no acquaintances here, who will take him away? What are people taking him to do with such an old man? Will Dad be deceived somewhere? Will the cashier be mistaken?
"Do you have their boss's phone number? Just call me and ask him. Seeing that Wenlan stayed aside, the cashier reminded.
"Nope. Wen Lan regretted that she didn't write down the boss's phone number, she had the opportunity to know it at the beginning, why was she so careless.
"Why don't you call 110. The cashier said.
"That's all there is to it, you borrow me to make a call. Wen Lan said.
"It's okay, you can fight. ”
At this time, a pickup truck drove towards the consignment station and stopped at the gate. Wenlan put down the phone and prepared to run over to inquire first.
"Huh?" Asked Lan was pleasantly surprised to see her father get out of the car, "Dad, you scared me, where did you go, why did you come back so late?"
"Silly daughter, what's going to happen to Daddy. Shi Wan looked at his daughter's crying appearance, half distressed and half happy, and said, "I'll go in and get the luggage back, and we'll walk home together." ”
Seeing that his father came back safely, a stone in Wenlan's heart fell to the ground. But Dad in the evening, no, where did he go today, because the luggage is still here, and he certainly didn't go home today.
Shi Wanyi came out with the futon on his shoulders and daily necessities in one hand, and asked Lan to take over the daily necessities in his father's hand.
"Lao Zhao, wait. Seeing that the father and daughter were about to leave, the truck driver Lao Wu stopped them, saying that it was too late and sent them home. Lao Wu is also a foreigner, he came here to work alone, helped Mr. Zhang pull some goods during the day, lived in the station at night to keep vigil, and went home for the New Year, just Shi Wanlai made up for a few days.
After returning home, because there was no hot water, he could only simply wash it, and Shi Wan still slept on the floor.
Shi Wan handed over the salary to his daughter, and then told his daughter in detail about today's situation. It turned out that Mr. Zhang came to the station at the consignment station in the morning, and Mr. Zhang gave 1,200 yuan to Shi Wan, who packed his luggage and prepared to go home. At this time, the truck driver Lao Wu walked in, saying that today two trucks of red tomatoes in the greenhouse were shipped, what should I do if there are no stevedores? Mr. Zhang said that where to find someone at this time, it is difficult to find a small worker, even if you can find a wage is a sky-high price, "There is really no way, only I am on my own, you are together, two people do it slowly, if there is someone in the local area to help, it will be better, if there is no one, we will have to work all night at night, the goods must not be delayed, and the reputation still has to be spoken." ”
Shi Wan heard that there was no one to do the work, so he came to work, and his body and bones were itchy after not doing work in the past few days, so he said to Mr. Zhang: "I'll help you move." ”
"You?" Mr. Zhang looked at Shi Wan in surprise, "Are you so old?"
"We mountain people just have a lot of strength, and I dare say that the two of you together don't have as much strength as mine. Shi Wan's face was sincere.
Mr. Zhang thought that Shi Wan was talking big, but he couldn't find anyone, so he would make up one. After having lunch at the station, he went to Lao Wu's truck, and Mr. Zhang had his own car. By the time they got there, the truck hadn't arrived. Mr. Zhang urged on the phone. It took a long time for the truck to arrive. The three of them immediately got up, Mr. Zhang and Lao Wu carried a basket of red tomatoes to the car, and Shi Wan picked up a basket and left.
Seeing Shi Wan's relaxed appearance, Mr. Zhang believed what he said just now, and he asked Shi Wan: "Do you know how many catties such a basket is?"
"About sixty or seventy pounds. Shi Wan replied.
"Yes, seventy pounds, you still move so easily, Lao Zhao, your strength is really not blown. ”
"As I said, you two don't have as much strength as I do together. Shi Wan still had a sincere face, "Otherwise, you tidy up in the car, and I'll move it below, which is faster, I do this when I do odd jobs at home, and sometimes it's heavier over there, I can move it." ”
In this way, they loaded two truckloads of goods, and when they came back from dinner, it was time.
Shi Wan also said that Mr. Zhang gave 200 yuan in wages today, and Shi Wan was very satisfied to earn 200 yuan a day, and he had never earned so much in a day. Mr. Zhang said that thanks to him today, otherwise I don't know when I can finish it, he can top two small workers alone, and said that in the future, he will be asked to do any work, 100 yuan for a truck and 30 yuan for a small truck, and 60 yuan for loading and unloading.
"Mr. Zhang also asked me to leave a phone number, notify me when there is goods, I said that I will sit on your side every day, no goods do not need to be paid, and you can go out at any time if you have goods. ”
Wen Lan said: "Dad, you scared me to death, I called 110 to call the police when I couldn't see you just now, I inquired about your news in the small supermarket on the side, and I picked up the microphone." ”
"Dad's big person can't be lost, fortunately you didn't call the police, otherwise it would have alarmed the police, and Dad would have been afraid. Shi Wan said. Wen Lan knew that her father was telling the truth, and the people in the mountains had never seen the world, and there was a natural sense of fear when she saw the police.
"Dad, you got the money, I'll buy a mobile phone tomorrow, one for each of us, buy the cheapest one, if the money is not enough, buy one first, Dad, you use it first." It seems that it is really inconvenient to have no mobile phone in the city, and when I go to look for a job today, people also want me to leave my number. Especially at night, if I had a mobile phone, I wouldn't be in a hurry like this. ”
"If you can only buy one, you should use it first, I see that everyone on the street now has a mobile phone, and it's okay for dad to be old, and my daughter can't do without it." Shi Wan said.
"We don't use mobile phones for show, because they come in handy, Dad has a mobile phone, I can find you, don't have to be so scared at night, compared to Dad is important, I'm not polite. ”
"Good. Shi Wan felt that what Wenlan said made sense, he wanted to have Wenlan on the side, he didn't have to make any decisions, just let his daughter do it.
"Dad, I got a job, and when this side is over, I'll go to work there, a newly opened hotel called Xinmin Hotel. ”
"Good. ”
"When my salary in Wang Lin is settled, we will go to buy two second-hand bicycles, where we live far away, it is more convenient to have bicycles. ”
"Hmm. ”
"Dad, you're tired, it's not early, go to sleep, I'll sleep when I'm done." ”
"Good. ”
Wen Lan began to sort out today's work. She feels that she has gained a lot from doing her homework every day during this time, and she feels that she has made rapid progress, which is mainly reflected in her own shortcomings and the shortcomings of the hotel management. She believes that finding deficiencies is more important than knowing what, because it is easy to know something, only by being able to find deficiencies can we think about problems and learn, and only by thinking and learning often can we continue to improve. Although these discoveries and reflections can improve their own quality, there is no practical effect at present, it is impossible for her to give advice to Wang Lin Hotel, it is useless to mention, she has only worked for a few days, and is about to leave, not to mention that she has no experience and does not understand this industry, and what she mentioned is not necessarily right. After a few days, I went to the newly opened hotel, everything started from scratch, this is a very good opportunity, I have to calm down to think and learn, even if I don't develop in this industry in the future, it is good to increase my experience. Q Lan also found that there were many problems that she couldn't think of how to solve, and she knew that in the future work, there would be more and more things that found problems and couldn't think of solutions.
"Lan'er. Wen Lan suddenly heard her father calling her.
"Dad, you haven't slept yet, are you uncomfortable?" asked Lan couldn't help but get nervous.
