Chapter 44: Working for the Second Uncle
During the summer vacation, I secretly went to the urban village where Teacher Lin lived to see her.
After the female boss's company was taken down in one fell swoop, the news tracker reported that most of the stolen money obtained through illegal channels could be refunded by shareholders with valid documents. It may be difficult to get all of them back, but it's good to recover some of your losses.
When I went to see her at Ms. Lin's house that day, I saw her and her husband walking hand in hand from a distance. The two of them carried vegetables and fruits, talking and laughing, completely without their previous cold and tense attitude.
Maybe we are all ordinary people, but ordinary people also have the right to pursue happiness, and ordinary people also have the ability to protect the people they are guarding.
That night, I happily bought wine and packed a few good dishes to go to the old man's house.
"Xiao Feng is here!"
"Swallow, what are you doing?"
When the swallow saw me coming, he quickly pulled me aside.
"What's the matter?
"It's not. The swallow stopped talking, and lowered her head and rubbed her hands.
"What's that...... The matter of Jujin is solved. But ......" the swallow looked embarrassed.
I slapped my head suddenly: "I understand, what's the matter, what's wrong with you and Wang Jiangang?"
The swallow sighed and turned away.
"Not going well?" I asked her tentatively.
"Well, I shouldn't have promised you in ......the first place! Not good!" Swallow's tone was a little complaining, and her voice choked.
"No, sister, you two won't really fall in love, will you?"
"Don't talk about whether you love or not, you just raise a dog, and you can also raise feelings!" said Yanzi, her eyes reddened.
I thought about it for a while, and pulled the swallow to the living room to sit down.
At this time, the old man also came down, and when he saw the posture of the two of us, he was sure that something was wrong.
"What's your meeting?"
"Master. β
"What's the matter, Xiao Feng bullied your senior sister?"
"How dare I, it's good if my senior sister doesn't bully me. My words made the swallow laugh.
Yanzi wiped away her tears, raised her head and said, "I didn't mean to hide from my master, but I was a little embarrassed." β
The old man sighed after listening to Yanzi's narration.
"Girl, remember the master's words. True feelings cannot be easily moved, and true feelings cannot be given easily. Either in the end, it is yourself who is hurt. β
"Master, I know. The swallow stubbornly replied to the old man.
"The matter between you and that Wang Jiangang, listen to the master's words. It can't be delayed, and when it is broken, it is broken. β
The old man looked up at the two of us: "Because in front of him, you are not the real you." β
In a word, Yanzi and I are very sad in our hearts.
Yes, in our business, when you need to act, you have to set up people, where are so many of you and me, the mountains and the sea......
"Okay. Let's eat, Xiaofeng is filial to the master today. The old man got up and went to the diner, and Swallow and I hurried to follow.
"Xiao Feng, do you have any plans for the summer vacation?" asked the old man during the banquet.
"Well, I don't have any ideas, I guess I'm going to find some odd jobs to do and earn some pocket money!"
The master nodded, "I agree." Get in touch with society a little more, and you won't be fantasizing!"
I knew that the old man had said this to Yanzi, and I peeked at her, and she was listening with red eyes, pretending to be a vegetable picker unnaturally.
After eating, I'm leaving. Swallow said to send me and followed.
I understood her thoughts, and the two of them walked along the road for a long time without speaking.
"Swallows. "When I waited for the traffic light, I couldn't help but speak.
"Actually, I don't think what the master said is necessarily right. His old man is indeed capable of throwing us 800 streets, but I still feel warm and cold about this kind of thing. β
The swallow didn't speak until the traffic light changed color.
She said faintly: "Xiaofeng, in fact, Wang Jiangang is not a good marriage partner. β
I laughed, "Haha, that's for sure, I know him." Poor jingle, it's good to be able to take care of yourself. β
The swallow was still expressionless.
"I know his situation. But you know what? It's the first time I've been so nice to someone when I've grown so big. β
Swallow turned her face away, and I knew she was crying.
"Most of the money he makes is spent on me. Every time we went out, we bought me something to eat and wear. I said no. But he ......"
Wang Jiangang is a real person, I am sure of this, it seems that he is sincere to Yanzi......
But he said, there is only one daughter-in-law, and he doesn't care for me, who loves me. I really can't bear it. The swallow hid her face and squatted on the side of the street and cried.
I can't see a girl crying the most, and when a girl cries, I'm stupid, and I don't have any folds......
"Don't cry, Yanzi, or we can come up with a better excuse and don't hurt him!" I racked my brains to say this.
Swallow's head was still buried in her shoulder, and she let out an "um".
In the following days, I spent all my energy looking for a part-time job during the summer vacation, and I didn't care about the swallows.
But this part-time job is too hard to find! There is no threshold for handing out leaflets, but not to mention the low salary, our city is a well-known stove.
In the summer, the whole city is transformed into a large sauna with no temperature difference and no airtight wind.
From morning to night, the wet air is steamed by high temperatures, and people stand in the sun for a while to absolutely dehydrate and rest. I was ruthless, but I still didn't want to abuse myself so badly.
Tutoring is a good job, but I spent most of the afternoon in the talent market. The people who competed with me were all college students from key universities, and there were also a few local returnees who came back for the summer vacation! I cursed to myself: You are so rich to go to sea, what are you going to rob from us tortoises! Lack of morality......
I searched for a week, but I didn't find a part-time job, but I fell down first.
On this day, I was looking for an interview opportunity in the sweltering talent market, and the scorching sun stimulated a taste of plastic through the green roof of the talent market.
I felt something in my chest at night, my eyes began to white, and then my feet went limp, and I passed out.
When I woke up, my parents gathered around me one by one: "Oops, hey, wake up!"
My mother hurriedly brought Huoxiang Zhengqi water and poured it down with me.
"How is Xiao Feng?" A voice came from the door, Second Uncle?
I struggled to sit up and saw my second uncle walking into the house carrying a large watermelon.
"Second uncle is here. "I had a weak greeting.
"Lie down, lie down, lie down! You say you're a kid, listen to your parents, you're fainting in the talent market!" "The second uncle is the youngest boy in my grandfather's family, my father is the second, and there is an older sister above. As the youngest son in the family, my grandparents have doted on my second uncle in every way since I was a child.
So the second uncle is very simple and simple, he has not suffered much, and he has not seen much of the world, after he got married, his grandparents paid for him to buy a convenience store.
The scale of the convenience store is not large, and it is only seventy or eighty square meters. But this faΓ§ade house was bought by the grandparents and recorded in the name of the second uncle. So the second uncle has his own assets at a young age.
Because of this, my mother didn't talk about it a lot. I felt that my grandparents were partial, and I even gave the little one a coffin book, but my dad and my aunt both started from scratch on their own.
But Uncle is a cheerful and cheerful person, and he is usually very generous to my family, and my mother can only swallow her anger and say nothing.
Today, my second uncle originally wanted to have a drink with my father, but when he called and heard that I had fainted from heat stroke, he brought a watermelon and looked at me by the way.
My second uncle sat on the edge of my bed and rubbed my head with his big thick hands.
"Silly boy, you're quite desperate!
I smiled.
"Say, what kind of job do you want to find, your second uncle will ask me!"
"Actually, I didn't have any ambitions, so I thought that I could support myself in the summer and earn some pocket money by doing odd jobs. "I'm embarrassed to say.
"Hey, I thought you had some lofty ambitions! Everyone looking for a job fainted in the talent market! Hahaha"
"Second uncle, don't make fun of me. "My second uncle Bai gave a look.
"Xiao Feng, it just so happens that there is a lack of helpers in the second uncle's store. It's summer vacation, and my place is close to the playground, so business will be a little better. Why don't you come to the second uncle's shop to help?"
"Really?" I heard and stood straight on the bed.
"You kid, when did the second uncle fool you?"
My dad was thin-skinned, so he quickly stopped him when he heard it: "It's not good, it's not good, how can I earn my family's money?"
My mom glanced at me, and my dad quickly shut up.
In this way, I agreed with my second uncle to go to work in his shop in a week.
