Chapter 546: Talent
The old man in front of him, the patches on his clothes were very conspicuous, a lot, but they were surprisingly clean. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info It was very clean, both in terms of clothes and people. Not tall or fat, thin and strong, although there is the helplessness of being oppressed by life, but it gives people a sense of righteousness.
Lin Wei was about to speak, but was interrupted by an old man's ridicule.
"Old man Wang, are you embarrassed? You don't want to think about your black history, who knows and wants you?"
When Lin Wei heard this, he did not express his position, but carefully watched the old man's reaction.
"My black history?"
Old man Wang opened his mouth, "Why don't I know that I have a loss of virtue?"
The black history given in the special period, even if it turns out that there is no such thing later, others will not believe him.
Because of this, his grandson was rejected from going to college, but he couldn't find a job in a factory, but fortunately, he was good at arithmetic, and he also learned some bookkeeping skills from one of his old buddies, and he could usually take on some odd jobs.
The son doesn't have much work, but the city is full of coolies, sharpening scissors, sharpening kitchen knives, and the daughter-in-law is pregnant again, and the days are getting more and more difficult.
Looking at the little rice in the pot, he felt uncomfortable, and wanted to let a few small ones in the family eat first, so he came out for a walk, and wanted to go to the vegetable market to pick up some cabbage leaves, but when he got to the corner, he still wanted to be quiet first, so he arrived here.
Then I heard Lin Wei's words.
Whether it can be done or not, he will definitely fight for it!
"Yo, who doesn't know that you fought with others on the street for food at the beginning?" The old lady was not happy when she saw what was happening on the peninsula, "That's not the rice you bought, you just robbed it!"
Old man Wang glanced at the old lady, turned his gaze, and looked at Lin Wei across the floor, "I can cook both northern and southern cuisine, and there are more than a dozen of the best dishes." I also studied medicinal diet with the master for a year. ”
His eyes were clear, Lin smiled, walked out of the crowd, and pointed to Sun Fang, "Okay, let's talk to the side?"
"Hmm. ”
Old man Wang nodded, turned around and walked towards Sun Fang.
"Alas, little girl, I was chosen just now, how can you talk and not count? I can also cook, that craft, no matter what my family likes to eat, even my relatives say it's good!"
The old lady grabbed Lin Wei, her face turned green, "Although I don't know any medicinal food, I have no problem with other dishes." ”
Lin Wei looked at the hand with age spots on his arm, and then raised his eyes and said, "What I'm looking for is someone who knows medicinal food." ”
This is a lie, but it is the best way to refuse to be entangled.
The old lady is also a wonderful person, when did she say that she was chosen?
It was just that she asked a question, and she replied. When you think about it, there is nothing suggestive about the reply.
"Aren't you afraid that the old man will empty your house, his house is almost out of the pot!" The old lady was unrelenting, and she was unwilling to let go of Lin Wei at all.
Five cents an hour, at least three hours a day, right?
One piece of five days!
That's forty or fifty yuan a month! More than all those who work in the factory! Others didn't react, but she had already calculated it in her heart!
Even if you don't give any other benefits and don't let you pack leftovers, it's ridiculously high!
Besides, what do you usually do when you buy vegetables, but your hands are tighter......
"Can't open the pot?"
Lin Wei raised his eyebrows, shook his arm, saw that she was grasping firmly, and was afraid that she would shake it off vigorously and hurt this shrewd old lady, so she replied with a smile, "It's good if you can't open the pot, so that you can do things with peace of mind." ”
The old lady glared at Lin Wei, I really want to ask if you are stupid?
I gasped for a few breaths, shook Lin Wei away, and my index finger was about to poke her face, "You'll cry in the future!
Lin Wei brushed away her fingers, glanced at her with a calm face, and turned to leave.
She hates it when people point their fingers at her!
Especially with a finger pointed at the door of her head!
If Sun Fang hadn't been looking at the car, she would have grabbed the old lady and beaten her!
Seeing Lin Wei coming, he hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, it's not worth being angry with someone like that!"
With a long breath, Lin Wei nodded, showed a smile, and looked sideways at Old Man Wang, "Uncle, do you really know how to eat medicinal food?"
"Well, I studied with the master for a year, and then the master passed away, so I practiced by myself according to the recipe he gave. ”
Old man Wang spoke unhurriedly, did not fight or grab, and had his own calmness.
Lin Wei nodded, feeling him better.
Old man Wang saw that Lin Wei didn't ask about the "black history", a little strange, and didn't want to leave a bad impression on the master's family, so he said frankly, "I used to be a cook in a restaurant, but after ten years of turmoil, many things couldn't last, and the head of the house, that is, my master, had to close down." ”
Seeing that Lin Wei didn't look impatient, he continued, "Our restaurant is also famous. The master said that I had a talent and couldn't bear to bury it, so he taught me ...... privately."
During that time, I didn't have to cook a lot every day, and although it was easy, I was not used to it. Fortunately, the master taught him every day, and he was able to cook something for both families.
"Later, those people said that my master was engaged in capitalism......" Old man Wang smiled, "my master was criticized." That time I bought rice, I was accidentally targeted by a scoundrel, he knew that I gave it to my master, and I didn't dare to make a noise, so he said that the rice was bought by him, and I insisted on robbing it......"
He really didn't dare to say that it was for the master, otherwise, when the master was waiting for it, it would definitely be another criticism, he was just carrying the blame, which was much better than the master being pulled out every day to criticize the fight at such an age.
At that time......
Old man Wang's eyes were a little watery, he lowered his head and blinked, the master's body was already broken, and one more criticism would make the master's body worse!
"I understand. Lin Wei looked at him and said reassuringly, "The past is the past, let's look forward, the days will always get better and better." ”
The times have created it, and manpower cannot turn the tide. Now the policy is gradually becoming clearer, and although the planned economic system has not been abolished, it is a sea shaking compared to 76 years ago.
It's-
Old man Wang looked at her and saw that there was no sympathy or pity in her eyes, but that he treated an ordinary person like that, and his heart suddenly warmed.
"If it's convenient for you, come with us to your home today to try your skills?"
This side is from Li Qi's place, walking for about half an hour, and riding a bicycle can shorten the time by half.
"Absolutely. ”
The old man had a smile in his eyes, "I'll go back and talk to my family first, so that they don't see me and look for me." ”
"Well, you see we're waiting for you at that intersection?"
Lin Wei pointed to a T-junction in front of him and asked, "Or do you give me a place and we will wait for you?"
"That's the place!"
The old man nodded, and walked home at a very fast pace, his steps almost windy.
Lin smiled and glanced at it, changed cars with Sun Fang, and asked her to ride her women's bicycle back.
