It has been a thousand years in the world Chapter 5 It is not easy to live in Dengzhou
It doesn't matter if you investigate the earthly python for the time being, after all, Qi An has been like this before, and he won't change his life habits and trajectory because of a dream.
Then it's all that remains to make ends meet and find an old friend. Of course, seeing what interesting changes the new era has is also Qi An's greatest interest after each awakening.
But when it comes to making ends meet, Qi An finds that his old crafts are almost impossible in this era. For example, Qi An once worked as a sewing poor for a period of time in order to make a living. The profession of sewing the poor has been around since ancient times, and it is to help the poor do some sewing and mending work. As the so-called "three years of the new, three years of the old, and another three years of sewing and mending", it describes the reason for the emergence of the poor sewing woman.
Those who can do sewing are generally old women who have lost their labor force, and they have no ability to live alone, but they are unwilling to affect their families, so they have to do some needlework to subsidize the family, and they are called poor sewing women. It is said that the poor are earning the poor people's money.
This job is not quite the same as that of a tailor, in addition to helping people sew and mend clothes, tailors independently design clothes is the main job, which is why men who are tailors are not looked down upon.
But now, Qi An found that the profession of not sewing poor has disappeared with the change of the times, and even the profession of the dart walker, which Qi An once thought would exist forever, is even almost unknown.
After thinking about it carefully, Qi An scratched his hair, and sadly found that his abilities all over his body seemed to be useless in this era.
can be used to make money, there are only four trades of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and there is no way to do it. As for food, housing, and transportation, Qi An made a list of all the occupations he could think of in his mind. I could be a cook, Qi An thought.
It's just that in the previous life, he was used to being served as Qi Yu, and now he is still a little resistant to serving others Qi An.
That's it, don't think about it yet, and discuss it with Lao Xu when the time comes.
So Qi An raised his head and asked Xu Wanqing, who was playing with his mobile phone in the sofa: "Old Xu... No, has your father been home lately?"
"What, you still want to make Lao Xu have a heart attack again?" Still staring at the phone screen, Xu Wanqing said to Qi An with a slight hint of mockery.
"I have never been able to figure it out, why is Lao Xu so excited to see you, and it won't be like this when he sees his sons and nephews, right?" Thinking of his father's panicked and happy appearance when he saw Qi An at that time, Xu Wanqing couldn't help but be curious.
"Lao Xu has never been so excited in his life, who are you?"
"It can't be Lao Xu's illegitimate son, right?"
Listening to Xu Wanqing's more and more outrageous speculation, Qi An could only use the term "Shijiao's nephew" to prevaricate the past.
Xu Wanqing seemed a little dissatisfied, but she was helpless, she knew that if Qi An didn't want to say it, she couldn't ask it, so she had to answer Qi An's question.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Qi An was going to pull Xu Wanqing out of the house.
"Hey, hey, big brother, you're in too much of a hurry, aren't you?, I just came out of the house, and I'm going back again?" was pulled up, Xu Wanqing hurriedly shook off Qi An's hand and tidied up some wrinkled clothes.
"You should at least go and change your clothes, and besides, this time I have to say to Lao Xu in advance, don't get excited and faint again." Pointing in the direction of the bedroom and motioning for Qi An to change the dirty clothes on his body, Xu Wanqing lit up the mobile phone screen and made a call to Xu Anguo.
When Qi An came out after changing his clothes, Xu Wanqing had already finished the phone call and sat on a chair and waited.
Looking at Xu Wanqing sitting in a precarious position, Qi An couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, Xu Wanqing's current sitting posture is a standard lady's sitting posture, her body is upright and stretched, her back is straight, her hips are only two-thirds of the chair surface, her legs are together, her feet are together, and her hands are placed on her legs.
From Qi An's eyes, Xu Wanqing's sitting posture is impeccable, but as a friend, this posture looks awkward.
Seeing Qi An walk out, Xu Wanqing's posture collapsed suddenly, and she complained while getting up and walking towards Qi An: "Lao Xu is the most important person, but I just have such a character, what do you say about this? There is no way, I have to sit in front of Lao Xu every time I have a dignified and beautiful posture, so that every time I go to Lao Xu's place, I have to practice sitting posture in advance, it's too annoying." ”
walked in front of Qi An, stretched out his hand to smooth the wrinkles on his clothes, tidied up his collar, and complained: "You are also a young man, why do you always dress so old-fashioned, sister will buy you clothes another day." As he spoke, he stood on tiptoe and touched Qi An's hair.
Hearing her call herself her sister, Qi An couldn't help but smile, let her touch her head, and then turned around and walked out.
As this is an old-fashioned neighborhood, the downstairs is only via stairs. Listening to the sound of Xu Wanqing locking the door with a key behind her, Qi An stood in front of the stairs waiting for her. Xu Wanqing wore high heels today, and it was not very convenient to go downstairs, so Qi An stretched out his hand to support her and went downstairs one by one.
Women wearing high heels are probably the favorite of most men, so high heels have become a symbol of sexiness. And for the woman herself, high heels are also a weapon to increase height and thus increase self-confidence. This was originally invented for men, but now it is for women.
Because they live on the second floor, going downstairs didn't delay the two of them much. As soon as I went downstairs, I saw Xu Wanqing's huge wrangler, because it was a temporary visit, I didn't plan to stay long, Xu Wanqing's car was parked downstairs.
took out the key to unlock it, Xu Wanqing saw Qi An's curious eyes, and hurriedly said: "The house can be given to you, but this car is not, even if Lao Xu asks me to give it to you this time, I won't give it to you." ”
Seeing that Xu Wanqing looked like a little tiger cub protecting food, Qi An had no choice but to promise not to covet her car.
Xu Wanqing relieved Qi An to sit in the co-pilot and drove all the way out of the community.
Qi An, who was sitting in the co-pilot, was still a little novel, although he had ridden in the car in the previous era or this time, and Xu Wanqing, a Wrangler, had also ridden a few times, but he still had some instinctive curiosity about this car, which was probably due to a man's innate love for machinery.
After exploring, Qi An suddenly thought of something and asked Xu Wanqing: "Do you need to buy some fruit for Lao Xu?" Last time it was too abrupt, and I didn't visit Lao Xu when he was hospitalized, so I always felt impolite. ”
Seeing that Qi An actually took the initiative to buy some gifts for Lao Xu, Xu Wanqing was a little surprised, thinking that he was the kind of person who was so lazy that he didn't even pay attention to normal social etiquette, but he didn't expect that he was quite thoughtful.
She said yes and stopped at a roadside flower shop.
