Chapter 5 Misfortune does not come alone
Lying on the sofa sleeping was a girl, she was dressed in black, so she couldn't find anyone here without walking over in this corner. Her whole body exuded a strong smell of alcohol, I shook her arm gently, and found that she didn't react at all, the KTV here had been closed for several days because of the fire, why was there still a drunk in the box?
Whatever, it's most important to do my job first, go and paint the wall first, and then send her to the third brother when this girl wakes up.
I returned to Lao Qintou and continued to learn to paint with him.
Lao Qintou first brushed the interface agent of a wall, then picked up a wooden board from the ground, pressed the wall, and smoothed the uneven part of the wall with stucco plaster, he did it, and then handed me the board and brush, signaling that this is my work.
I took the tools in his hand and began to work on this wall, while Old Qin Tou walked to the other wall and began to brush the interface agent.
In the afternoon, Lao Qintou and I had already painted the primers on several walls, including the most difficult ceilings. When I was making the ceiling, Lao Qintou simply sat next to the girl and closed his eyes to recuperate, and left it to me to deal with, and he refused to even help me with the ladder, so I moved the ladder like this, brushed a little, moved the ladder, and brushed a little.
Hmph! This old man's lazy kung fu is not ambiguous at all, not for the sake of him being a disabled person, and I will definitely stop doing it.
There is still the last wall that has not been painted, that is, the wall where the sofa is leaning, and it is strange that Lao Qintou did not paint the interface agent on this wall.
When I was worried about what to do, the third brother came in, and he nodded at me with satisfaction: "Xiao Wu is good, it only took one afternoon to finish the primer." ”
I still had to grit my teeth and say politely to him: "Everywhere, it's all pointed out by Lao Qintou, but what about that wall?", I pointed to the wall that hadn't been painted yet.
"It's okay, let's go eat first, and come back tomorrow to finish the rest, the restaurant's cafeteria has already prepared the meal." The third brother patted me on the shoulder, then walked to Lao Qintou's side and shook him awake, and made a gesture to eat, Lao Qintou slowly got up and walked out from me and the third brother, without any eye contact with me and the third brother throughout the whole process.
Huh? Is this old Qin Tou so crazy? The foreman doesn't pay attention to it? Countless question marks in my heart are hung on Lao Qin Tou.
The third brother hugged me: "What are you stunned boy, let's go!"
Isn't there another person in this house? I hurriedly asked the third brother, "Third brother, that girl has been sleeping there since the beginning, don't you wake her up?"
The third brother showed his public relations smile again: "Xiao Wu, don't care about this person, you can't afford to mess with her, let's eat." ”
I can't afford to mess with it? It seems that this girl's identity is extraordinary, but just let her lie there and sleep? The house has just been painted, and it is full of formaldehyde, and it is not a way to lie there.
Just when I was about to say something, the third brother put away his smile and said to me seriously: "If she wakes up, nothing good will happen." ”
The third brother had an unquestioning expression on his face, okay, let her lie there.
Coming to the cafeteria, all the workers are eating here, one by one gobbling up for fear of who eats less than whom, it seems that the whole afternoon's work has made everyone empty their stomachs, open to eat here.
The waiters in the cafeteria all looked at us with a little disgust, obviously our clothes, our eating appearance and the style here are completely incompatible, and it is no wonder that the hotel will free up the entire cafeteria for us to eat for a dozen people, after all, no guest wants to eat with us who are sweaty, untidy, and even a little sloppy.
But who cares about that? Having food to eat and money to take is the most extravagant desire of a day laborer like us.
I'm not surprised at all by the change in my mentality, I've been working part-time since I was a child, and the transition from college student to worker status is not a problem for me at all, or I have always been working for myself.
The buffet in the five-star hotel is delicious! All kinds of seafood, all kinds of desserts, all kinds of delicacies, everyone in the restaurant is talking and laughing, while feasting, this is the happiest time for every worker every day!
In the corner of the restaurant, the third brother and Lao Qintou were pushing the glass to change the lamp, the third brother raised the wine glass to the old Qintou, Lao Qintou raised his hand, signaling that he couldn't drink anymore, and the third brother, who was slightly embarrassed, still had the wine glass in his hand hanging in the air.
I hurriedly poured a glass of wine and went to toast the third brother he was first taken aback, and then nodded at me with satisfaction the old qin tou next to him was still staring at me but
Not long after watching it this time, he also smiled at me, this is the first time I have seen Lao Qintou show another expression today.
After drinking this cup, the third brother got up and clapped his hands, and said to everyone: "Okay, everyone be quiet, everyone has worked hard today, and when we finish eating, the hotel will send you home one by one by car, and tomorrow, we will continue to finish the work here." ”
In response, everyone is responding to the third brother.
Just as everyone was about to sit down and rejoin the meal, an unusual burnt smell slowly hit everyone's nose, but everyone disagreed, thinking that the Brazilian barbecue chef in the restaurant was grilling the meat, and no one questioned the unusual taste.
I looked east and west through the glass, and finally, I saw puffs of black smoke floating out of the glass on the east side of the restaurant, and that direction happened to be the KTV branch of the hotel that we were working on in the morning.
The people around me were still immersed in the food, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly rushed to the direction of KTV.
Damn! It turns out that the room I was responsible for the construction broke out in a fire, I remember that there was no fire source in it, right?
I didn't have time to even out my breathing, so I rushed into the smoky KTV box, damn! It turned out that there was a fire on the sofa, and I remember that there was a drunk girl lying on the sofa!
Ignoring the fire, the most important thing at this time is human life, I quickly ran to the sofa where the fire was most ferocious, and found that the drunk girl was lying on the ground not far from the sofa, and the flames were about to spread her clothes!
I hurriedly picked up the girl with one hand, carried her on my shoulder, and carried her out of the fire.
Outside the door, the third brother finally arrived, and one of them carried a bucket of water and poured it into the house.
In a hurry, the big brother in leather shoes who had summoned me in the morning, snatched the girl from my hand who had been unconscious by the thick smoke, and ran out without looking back, and after a while, I heard the sound of an ambulance leaving.
The third brother gasped and said to me, "I said it... If she wakes up... It's probably not a good thing. The third brother was out of breath.
"Third brother, do you mean that this fire was lit by that girl just now?"
Before the third brother could answer me, the eldest brother of leather shoes hurried back again, interrupted our conversation, and said to me, "Your name is Wu Le, right? Come to the general manager's office of the hotel at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." ”
After saying that, the big brother of leather shoes left again.
What are you going to do tomorrow morning in the general manager's office? They won't think I set the fire, will they? Do they want me to compensate? The legend of the temporary worker carrying the black pot will finally be fulfilled in me?
Damn, it's all me, the money owed hasn't been paid off, and there will be new debts soon, why am I so unlucky, I scratch my ears and cheeks when I think of this.
When I was worried, Lao Qintou walked up to me and quietly handed me a piece of note, which read: "At three o'clock tomorrow night, come to Huanggu Mountain to see you." ”
