Chapter 23 Refusal to come to work

Refuse to work at home

Yan Yongnong is skilled, his hands and feet are quick, and he spares no effort to save tobacco and alcohol for others, such craftsmen are hard to find in the world. While he was still working in this family, several of his subordinates came to him and made a verbal contract with him.

His schedule was scheduled from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, so that someone had to put a deposit for the next year.

Suddenly, Yan Yongnong refused to come to ask for work, and even regretted the work he had promised, and he clearly said that he would no longer come to work at home. People don't understand why you are a door-to-door craftsman who suddenly refuses to come to your door?

The man who had a lot of work came to ask him for help, but no one who had a lot of face could try to move him. Some people are willing to pay a high price, Yan Yongnong said: "Even if you give gold bars, I can't get it." ”

People began to gossip about him, that he was popular, that he was proud, that he was narrow-minded, and so on, and he ignored them all.

At this time, someone angrily left a string of words: Dead robbers and no thieves? Without you to beat the furniture, my house is empty, my son is single, and my daughter is an old woman at home?

He counted his wife Wang Huilan the most ruthlessly, and she said with a handful of tears and a handful of noses: "Oh my God, what kind of spirit and evil possession are possessed? I just earned a few yuan, and my days are getting better and better day by day." You can't eat three bowls of hot porridge and turn it upside down. Are you afraid that money will prickly your hands or that your house will be broken by more money?"

Yan Yongnong endured a lot of gossip from others, it was annoying enough, if everyone had to explain to them and break the turnip, then he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep. So no matter what others say, whether it's singing or not, he has a full stomach.

Now that the roots of his ears are quiet, Wang Huilan came to quarrel again, and he couldn't hold back anymore: "When others quarrel, you also sing and class." Others are arguing for my benefit, want to exploit my labor, and want to squeeze more blood and sweat out of me. What about you, like everyone else, treating me like a cow or a horse, or even better. You got into the eyes of the money, you only saw the money, and you never asked where the money came from? You see my hands are thicker than cowhide, and I'm selling cattle outside. You wish this cow would not be taken off the shelves for 365 days a year. Even cows have a time to spend the winter, when they are cultivating and recuperating, I am afraid that my life will not be born by my grandmother?" Yan Yongnong let out a sigh of resentment.

"You can't afford to eat winter melon and shave the ground, you can't eat outsiders and only eat and live in your family, others have scolded you, I just said that you can't get out of your shell if you say a few words. Which one asked you to work and took a whip to force you to do cow and horse work? It was you who spared no effort, it was you who made a fool of yourself, you didn't want what you should want, you didn't eat what you should eat, and you didn't rest when you should rest. It's all your own doing, don't spill your anger on me. As the old saying goes, 'There is no strong man in a long work.'" It's not called long-term work to accumulate strength and spare strength. Wang Huilan returned the favor.

"I admit that I was stupid, but Xie Jin only ate once. I don't come to the door to do things for others anymore, see where you go into the fierce water?" Yan Yongnong said angrily.

"Don't choke me, you earn a mountain of gold and silver, and when you come back, you still put it in your Yan family. Don't worry, I won't steal your money to my mother's house, my mother's family is also doing well, only those who love me will not rely on me to survive. Besides, I don't like I used to sit in the house and ask you to feed and eat from your armpits. When you are not at home, I work alone outside and inside, I am already helping you fight for the world, and you still come to me to complain, where do I go to complain? Really, these children are all yours, and they all follow your surname Yan, and you make money to support them, so you should be burdened. You are rich and they live well with you, and you are poor and they suffer with you. ”

"I don't go out to work, I don't sit at home and play, I do my job at home. Whoever wants any furniture, as long as the materials are sent to the door, I will process them for them, but the location of the processing is changed. So it's beneficial for both parties, they are free of hospitality, and it's convenient for me to stay at home. Moreover, the work I save up to do is my own work, and the price for a day of work on other people's doors is set, even if I do something for a day and a half. And I'm good to help you with things in the fields, so you can make it easier. Yan Yongnong's tone was softer.

"Even if it is easy to move materials, the materials are scattered, but how to move large pieces of furniture such as beds and wardrobes up and down the mountain?" Wang Huilan asked.

"You are not convinced by the fact that you have long hair and short knowledge, and I am afraid that you will be born as a complete individual! Furniture can be assembled, and all parts will be shipped back after they are ready, and then I will come to the door to collect them. ”

"So you haven't gone to someone's door to do things?"

"But you don't have to live in someone else's house! ”

Slowly, the two came together.

In fact, the real reason why Yan Yongnong didn't come to serve was not the reason he said, it was just used to cover his mouth. He was originally a warm-hearted man, and he spared no effort to help anyone who could use him. He's not a trivial person either. He was widely regarded as the best of promises, the best of words, and the most skilled carpenter. Therefore, they vied to invite him and waited in line for him. Now that he has suddenly lost his trust, he has a hard time letting go of a lot of tickets and not making money, and he can't say it to the public, even to his wife.

He went out to work for his son, and now he doesn't go out to work for his son. Originally, he took his son out so that the father and son were always together, he couldn't stand the separation from his son for a moment, and his son couldn't leave him for a moment.

At the same time, they work in other people's homes, others treat them as guests, and their son's mouth is better than at home. He would rather eat his own potatoes and save his son's food, if he eats fish outside and puts his son at home to eat potatoes, then he will choke. But he couldn't stand the wave after wave of people who came to watch his son.

I don't know why those people are so interested in his son, so curious, so obsessed. The words and deeds of those people made him angry, made him angry, he hated it, and made him tremble.

"Didn't you take your son out to advertise and sell him out? Oh my God, those people's mouths are radio tubes, and they spread to ten, ten, hundreds, and I don't know where they have got? My son is unstable, and someone will soon come to fight with him. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became.

He will never take his son out again, even if he earns gold and silver, he will not be happy to come back. What's the point of asking for so much money without a son? I have to hide in the mountains quickly and not be known by outsiders.

He hoped that everyone who met them would have amnesia, and that it would be better to not remember anything after a night's sleep.

He set up a factory at home to work as a carpenter, helping others to process and also processing his own wood into furniture and selling it outside the mountains.

This is to give yourself more freedom to do things, do more if you want, and rest for a while. It's no better than serving other people's bowls in other people's homes, and you have to obey others, and you can't be idle all day long. This also hurts the son, who is used to being hugged and carried by him, but he can't leave things behind and hug him, and he can't carry him on his back like at home. I had to let him play alone, using planing chips, sawdust, and scrap wood as toys. Only when he was tired of playing and dozed off did he hug him.

Now it's different, as long as he has a whim, or his hands are itchy or his back feels uncomfortable, he throws away the tools at hand anytime and anywhere, and plays with his son like a lion.

Of course, he doesn't know how to work, and he has to finish the work he sets for himself every day in the middle of the night.

Wang Huilan said of him: "I walk in all directions during the day, and mend my crotch at night." ”
