Life is not like what Li Jingjing once thought-

A vigorous love, a happy marriage, a happy family, not much luxury, it is enough to give this 'simple' life...

Yes, Li Jingjing found that it was not. That's not easy. The word 'enough' is too extravagant. His world is as innocent as his fantasy, and the reality is so cruel. Even if everyone can't generalize, the word 'livelihood' often affects millions of people.

I'm worried about a job with food and clothing.

Worry about the family's expenses.

Too much, too much.

In the scorching sun at noon, the dazed and hesitant gaze wandered on the strange streets. Li Jing woke up like a dream, and suddenly understood such a sentence - whether people live for life, or live for living....

....

Even though he knew that this afternoon's running would be superfluous, Li Jingjing still came out with hope.

That's right.

The result was the same as the experience of the previous two days. Even if I have walked a farther road and come to a more prosperous urban area today, the few jobs that I am willing to recruit are mostly a few words of "Hello, what is your education?" and "I'm sorry, we won't hire people for the time being." "I'm sorry, you don't meet our requirements for the time being" and something like that sent him away. The two factories I found were the same as the others, and they still didn't have the benefits of paying wages in advance.

Therefore, at four o'clock in the afternoon, in the sunset that gradually rose to cover the scorching sun, I walked home alone with loss....

Didn't get a job.

It's getting late. A little cool breeze began to be ushered in.

The streets are full of cars and people, shops and supermarkets are lively, and street vendors are hurrying to come. At the school gate is an endless stream of parents waiting for their children, couples on the street are talking and laughing, and passers-by also have their goals and directions, but Li Jing feels that he is so out of place in this warm and beautiful world.

Compared with these people, it seems that something is missing.

Li thought quietly.

He couldn't figure out what was missing. It's strange to say, Li Jingjing, who doesn't know what is missing, seems to know the solution very well in his heart-

If you can enter a factory right now, earn a daily salary of 30 yuan with peace of mind, even if you spend more than half of the money to meet the food and clothing, you can save the other small half, and hold 'If you go on like this, even if you don't earn much, endure more hardships, work harder, you can always get through the past, and life will be better. 'Mindset of life, probably, is the solution.

At the beginning of everything, you only need to be able to cover the living expenses for a period of time.

It's just a few days of running and more than ten hours of running, but I didn't get the harvest. There is still no company, the factory is willing to help, believe him. He will obviously work hard, and he will pay back and make up for this money. It's really that the family has no money, Xiao Nan and himself want to eat and live, so he has to ask for this. Why, no one can understand you?

With lead-filled feet, drooping eyelids, and a heavy mood, Li was so tired that he sincerely found himself tired to the limit.

If he could, he would like to go back to every night of his junior year of high school. He no longer expects those comfortable and comfortable lives. He just wants to go back to the carefree, no responsibility, no need to walk most of the day to find a job, too lazy to find an excuse to lie in bed and rest for a day, sleepy at the desk and lazy...

He'll definitely go back to studying.

I will try my best to change my unmotivated self.

As long as he can get rid of the pressure that almost overwhelms him at the moment-

He's out of money...

.......

It's almost five o'clock.

Li Jing came to the old Zhang Ji Hotel.

The students have already finished school, and the crowds of students who live in the dormitory have come in to eat. Fortunately, it is not time for nearby office workers to get off work, and it is not too busy and crowded. Li Jingjing could also see that on the table in the small restaurant, the swarthy boss was still smiling leisurely and looked at Xiao Nan, who didn't know what he was talking about, and was happily waving his little hand vigorously.

Li Jing couldn't help but wonder. Just about to go in, but Xiao Nan, who was happy to say it, actually noticed Li Jingjing who walked to the door in advance, her small mouth stopped, and even climbed down from the stool, and quickly pounced on Li Jingning, "Dad!"

"Huh. ”

Li squatted down with a smile and gently picked up Xiao Nan.

"Did you have fun with Uncle Lu?" asked Li Jingjing with a smile.

"Well, Xiao Nanzheng said to Uncle Lu that yesterday I dreamed of a very beautiful and beautiful bird, it was going to carry Xiao Nanfei, the little bird can be big or big...."She gestured with her hands, Li listened quietly, a little unpleasant, he knew that if he was not busy going out in one day, she would have to share this story with herself.

"Thank you for helping take care of Xiaonan Boss Lu. Li Jing came to the side of the swarthy man, and immediately said to Xiao Nan, "Thank you, Uncle Lu." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Lu. ”

"What kind of care is it, just let Xiao Nan sit here for a day, she can still talk to me when I'm stuffy, it's too late for me to be happy." The swarthy boss shook his head, and then said, "Did you just come back from work?"

Li was stunned for a moment, and his mood sank.

Just about to refuse, he suddenly thought of something, paused, looked at the boss surnamed Lu with some embarrassment, and a little embarrassed, "Boss Lu, can I ask you something?"

"What's the matter? "The swarthy boss is very cheerful.

"This... That's the case, I just want to come back to pick up Xiao Nan, but I'm in a bit of a hurry to go out right away, I think, in fact, it's not good for Xiao Nan to be left at home alone, so can you please help me take care of Xiao Nan, I'll come over to pick her up later. Li Jingjing asked.

"Hahaha, what do you say is the matter? It's easy to say! If you're busy, go ahead, I'll help you take care of Xiaonan, and it's no problem to stay for one night." The swarthy boss laughed.

Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Xiao Nan can eat here at night. Yes, where did Lee go at night? He lied. He knew he shouldn't lie in front of a child, so what else would he do?

Li Jingning could notice Xiao Nan's depressed expression, he felt bad for a while, and he could only smile reluctantly, and scraped Xiao Nan's little nose with his hand, "Xiao Nan is good, Dad is busy, obedient, play with Uncle Lu for a while, Uncle Lu still has TV to watch here, and Dad will come to pick you up later and go home." ”

Xiao Nan nodded obediently, looking at Li Jingjing, his big eyes couldn't hide his loss, "Xiao Nan knows." ”

Entrusted to the swarthy man, Li quietly turned his head and went out.

Looking at the amber dusk as yesterday, he was silent for a long time, and finally looked back at Xiao Nan, who was looking at his back, and then quickened his pace and walked towards home.

.....

Sitting heavily on the iron bed, the heavy legs finally took a chance to rest. Li Jing couldn't even move this body, so he had to stretch out his hand and pour a few large glasses of water into the kettle, and then pick up the last hard white steamed bun on the low wardrobe with the other hand and gnaw it.

When I adjusted to my new life, the tiredness and hunger that had accumulated over the past two days followed. Today, on the way home, Li Jing was hungry.

Nibbling on this steamed bun that was difficult to swallow yesterday, Li Jingjing found that it was extremely delicious, and after a few big bites, a steamed bun disappeared like this.

Under the gaze of hope, there are no steamed buns in the bag. In the end, he had to put the water glass back in his hand, retract his gaze, and lean softly against the wall.

"It's time to figure out a way out. He muttered.

The possibility of salary advance is mostly left with the smiling face of the paper mill manager who keeps talking. Will he be disappointed with a perfunctory remark of 'I'm sorry, I forgot, you can come back tomorrow'? Or will he be completely desperate with a sentence that I don't know whether it's true or not, I'm sorry, I didn't get through?

What should I do then?

Suddenly, Li Jingjing's mind appeared with a swarthy man's cheerful smile.

If you borrowed some money from him, would he agree? One or two hundred dollars should not be a big problem for him.

But I've only met two or three times, I haven't talked a few words, I can't even count as an acquaintance, just a neighbor who likes children very much, why do people borrow it? If I fail to borrow, I will even ask someone else to help take care of Xiaonan in the future, it will become so awkward.... I can't open my mouth!

The few rays of yellow light that penetrated into the hut clearly reflected Li Jingjing's anxious face that was busy with life.
