Chapter 176: Strong and Short Qi Xiyu
In the next village to Yibai's grandmother's hometown, there is a village called xx bay, and there is a girl in the village named Qi Xiyu.
She is twenty years old this year, only about one meter five tall, she has a younger sister named Qi Tingnan, who is two years younger than her, and a younger brother named Qi Fanming, who is four years younger than her.
Her parents divorced when she was six years old, and her mother took her sister with her, and later had to go out to work and send her sister to her grandparents.
Her mother left, she cried so sadly, hugged her mother's thigh, and didn't let her go, but her mother finally left, and had to go for the sake of life.
Dad got married, and when she was about ten years old, her mother gave birth to a little brother.
At that time, family planning was strict, and the younger brother had been raising it at a relative's house. Giving some money every year belongs to superbirth.
At first, she and her younger brother just called their stepmother aunt, but the stepmother began to treat them well, doing laundry and cooking, and the crops in the soil would be dry.
The stepmother is also divorced, and her ex-husband likes to play cards and gamble for money, and does not do crops and housework.
After a long time, I couldn't bear it anymore and had to get a divorce. gave her two children to her ex-husband, and the two children also cried and told her not to go.
But the stepmother was heartbroken, so she left, and saw that her father was a village party secretary and didn't gamble, so she got married.
Later, after a long time, when she was ten years old, the two siblings still called her mother, after all, the stepmother is still very hardworking in this family.
It wasn't until Qi Xiyu came out to work that her parents took the little brother back. The eldest brother Qi Fanming did well in school, and his father sent him to the city to study.
Qi Xiyu began to learn to do housework when she was ten years old, her grandmother helped them keep the house, and her parents did business on the village street and did not come back at night.
Later, he took out a loan to build a three-story house on the street, specializing in business, collecting grain and selling all kinds of haberdashery.
Only when the farm is busy, Qi's father and mother will come back to help collect the family's grain, and they will return to the street at night, and they will sell things when they catch the market.
When they went to school, the two siblings would steam rice at school, and they usually always brought some sauerkraut to school to eat, and they were reluctant to go to the school cafeteria to eat.
In the long run, malnutrition, at the age of the long body, did not eat well, and the height was only about 1.5 meters.
Qi Xiyu's grades in primary school were okay, but she struggled in junior high school, and she didn't go to make up classes, and her parents were busy earning money, so they didn't ask her much.
When she was in junior high school, there was a semester when her father didn't pay the tuition, and she was a little ashamed to pay it after she finished studying.
Knowing that her parents sometimes can't turn over money, so she owes it, so she goes to her younger brother every day after school and goes back to her hometown in the countryside with him.
When she was young, her younger brother would sometimes grab food from her, and the two siblings would not let each other go, and they would never do this again when they went to junior high school.
Every day after school, I go back to my home, finish my housework, finish eating, and do my homework.
Every day I write very late, my grandmother and brother have already slept, and sometimes she can't finish writing, and she wants to sleep, so she has to put it down.
The next morning, I went to study after dinner, and I hurriedly wrote at school, and if I couldn't finish writing, I had to hand it in like that, and my grades were so bad. Usually she doesn't like to ask the teacher.
When she graduated from junior high school, her grades were less than 60 points in three subjects, and her father asked her to repeat it, so she went to study for one session.
The tuition fee was paid after reading, and she was asked by the teacher several times, but she felt embarrassed, thought twice, and stopped reading.
At this time, she was only seventeen years old, and she was not old enough to go out to work. I worked at home for a year on the farm, and I was very yellow.
Dad often educated his younger brother and made him study hard, and Qi Fanming went to the town when he was in junior high school and lived in the school.
He continued to work hard and was admitted to the high school in the city, and his father sent Fan Ming to study in the second middle school in the city.
Dad is a village party secretary, and he will go to the town for a meeting every day, and after the meeting, he will go to every household in the village.
The crops in the soil at home, my mother is not very good at drying, and it is really difficult to do farm work at home with three children.
Fortunately, my grandparents helped to bring it, and my mother was a little more relaxed, and she went to work in the soil by herself, and when she was not married, she was very lazy in her own mother's house, so the crops in the soil basically did not work.
So two husbands and wives will quarrel, rural people don't know how to do farm work, what do you eat?
After the two couples quarrel, they will blame each other, and if they get married with immature ideas, they will hurt each other.
The two couples started making friends at the age of eighteen when they were studying, got married at the age of twenty-five, and got to know each other enough, but they didn't think about whether they had the ability to survive in the countryside?
often quarrels, blame my father for going out every day and not doing the farm work at home, my father blames my mother for not being able to do it, and the result of the quarrel is that there is only divorce and both parties are freed.
Later, my mother went out to work in the city and rarely returned to my hometown, and my father got married later, and I didn't want to have another child.
The mother in the back wanted to give birth, and in order to avoid the inspection, she gave birth at the mother's relative's house.
How many rural people will abide by the laws of the country, and there may be very few who will not give birth.
In fact, the idea of patriarchy seriously troubles everyone, and they all think that only those who have sons in the family will have hope.
In fact, this is not the case, if the education is good, the children are the same, and when they grow up, they will find the children of other families to marry.
The burden on the family can be imagined, and there is still a big difference between raising three children and raising one.
My sister's tuition is sent by my mother, my sister is at my grandfather's house, and my grandmother sometimes gets sick, and then she gets seriously ill and has surgery.
Such a family has caused Qi Xiyu's strong character, she said to herself that she can only get married when she has money in the future, but she doesn't want to get married.
She is less than 1.6 meters tall normally, and if she finds friends in the future, she will be disliked by others, she just wants to learn more, and then work hard to earn living expenses.
When she was just eighteen years old, a relative in xx city helped her find a job, and she went to do it, but the boss saw that she was so small and not strong, so he had to let her cook, and originally asked her to go to the car to load the goods.
The owner of that house is a wholesaler, and some goods need to be tied up on the top of the car, and on the first day he goes to work, looks at the car that high, and climbs up the ladder.
Someone below handed the goods up, and she stood on the ladder and handed it up, and there was another person on top to pick it up.
The large box of goods was about 20 catties, and she carried it in her hand, climbed up with difficulty, handed it to the boss above, and went down the ladder to pick up the goods.
After going back and forth a few times, she couldn't move, and the proprietress saw her below and asked her if she couldn't move?
The proprietress had to let her come down, and when she saw that she was thin and short, she was a little pitiful, if the conditions at home were good.
Such a child will not come out to do this kind of laborious work at all, and this kind of work requires a man of normal height and strength to be able to do it.
The proprietress had no choice but to load the goods and not let her come, and asked her to go to the warehouse to help move the goods, but she could only work hard to move a box and follow her sister who was working together.
My sister is tall, about six or five meters tall, and she has to move two boxes, a total of about forty pounds.
Such physical work, moving back and forth, soon the two of them could not bear it. The boss and the lady were loading the goods in the car, and the two little girls were moving.
Soon the sweat soaked the whole body, until the removal was completed, there were about fifty pieces, and the body was very unbearable to move like this three times a day.
After the two girls moved in, they returned to their own place, changed their wet clothes, and were afraid of getting sick, and there was only one room in the place where they lived, which the boss rented, and there was a bathroom.
Later, the sister left not long after, just worked for a month, and got a salary of 400 yuan.
At that time, prices were low, and the boss would rather ask the girl to move the goods, just because the salary of the hired girl was low.
The low-wage man was reluctant to do it, and then there was a sister, who was also very tall, at this time Qi Xiyu had been working here for half a month, and then he would only move goods once a day, sometimes two days.
The boss's business was not so good, the proprietress let her cook for five days, help them wash their clothes, wash dishes, and also raised three pet dogs, cooked beef for them every day, and sometimes bathed the three dogs.
Qi Xiyu didn't feel that it was interesting, and he wouldn't be the boss in the future, and he would do business wholesale, so it would take a lot of capital.
It took a lot of effort to do business, and in the end she told the proprietress that she would not work here.
The proprietress kept her, thinking that she was small, but she was very obedient and hardworking, and now she can help cook and sell things.
It's not easy to find an obedient employee, and it's not lazy, and the pay is low.
She still said that her father called her back, and the proprietress had to calculate the salary for her, and after working for 20 days, it was only 200 yuan.
Qi Xiyu said hello to the proprietress and left, went home to rest for a week, and relatives in the city helped her find a restaurant and let her go as a waiter, so she had to go.
The restaurant works long hours, from six in the morning to twelve in the evening, and works here with a cousin.
In the morning, we want to sell porridge, steamed buns, and the like, and the master who makes the steamed buns will make them at five o'clock, and after steaming, they will start selling them at half past six.
On the first day Qi Xiyu came, I couldn't stand it, there was a lunch at noon, the guests came in to eat, and the proprietress stir-fried vegetables, all of which were home-cooked dishes.
The proprietress is very capable, she opened a store alone, invited a master, two waiters, and waited until noon when the guests finished eating, and a few people began to eat.
After eating, Qi Xiyu washed the dishes, the cousin cleaned up the ground outside, and the proprietress and the male master went to rest.
When it was time to wash, the hostess's clothes, as well as her own clothes, had to be washed. The proprietress asked her to help wash it, and the salary was only four hundred.
Some people can't do this kind of salary, Qi Xiyu feels that he should suffer as soon as he comes out.
After washing, she sat down to rest, and there were no guests to eat until after half past six in the evening, and after nine o'clock, there were no guests to eat, and a few people ate dinner.
I cleaned up the dishes and washed them, and then rested after washing, and waited until twelve o'clock to see if there were any guests to eat, and when I went to bed, I was already sleepy.
After three days like this, Qi Xiyu felt that she couldn't bear it, and she kept dozing off during the day, so she had to tell the proprietress that she would stop doing it and that she would not have a salary.
Come and say it, you have to work for half a month to get paid. The proprietress kept her, so obedient, low salary, and hard-working people are not easy to find.
Qi Xiyu really couldn't stand it, she still left, her cousin was still doing it there, she was used to it, she told her cousin not to do it.
The cousin said that she can't leave now, and the proprietress hasn't found anyone yet, so she won't let her go.
Qi Xiyu had to leave by herself, went home, and worked at home for a few days when her cousin came and asked her if she wanted to work outside?
