said that after Guiwa was driven out of the Chunmiao Market by the local snake in Pingyang, she was angry and anxious, bitter and unwilling. It is often said that since ancient times, black and white have been connected. Guiwa wandered around the market for two days, and also roughly felt the joint between the market security and the local snake.

So, after thinking about it, he went to find his fellow countryman, and wanted to ask Lao Xue to help introduce the head of the market security office. This old Xue is from Jiangjiazhuang in Persimmon Bay, and opened a shop in Pingyang Market.

"Old Han, do you have time to drink two glasses in the evening?" said Guiwa, handing the director a cigarette. "What's going on?" asked Old Han with a smile. "Hey, hey, treat, let's get together. Guiwa said with a dry smile. "Haha, it's not easy for you, you don't have to eat!"

"Don't mind, what's polite? After so many years, you have taken good care of us, and it is not right to get together. Lao Xue said on the side. "That's it, get together. Guiwa hurriedly helped.

"What about getting together?" said Old Han with a smile. "Hey, get together. "Okay, let's talk about it, only talk about friendship, not about transactions." Old Han said with a smile. "Yes, yes, where is the deal, just talk about friendship. ”

"Haha, it can be seen that you two are also temperamental. Lao Han praised. "Director Han is the man of temperament. "Haha. "That's it, Director Han, I'll call you later?" Guiwa said.

"Oh, that's what I need to say. You're not a big deal, it's just a gathering, and it's uncertain. Lao Xue said on the side. "Haha, I definitely want to go. Seeing that the people agreed, Guiwa settled down.

So, before the Spring Festival livestock market closed, Guiwa was accompanied by Lao Xue and invited Lao Han, the director of public security, to dinner, Lao Han brought two more from Pingyang, and the five of them gathered in the restaurant.

After three rounds of drinking, Guiwa wanted to ask the director to help and introduce the head of the livestock broker. And Lao Han, in order to cultivate his helper in the market, seeing that Guiwa is also a ghost, maybe it can come in handy, so he casually agreed, anyway, it is a gesture, and it doesn't hinder anything if it doesn't work out.

The next day, Guiwa gave Lao Han another cigarette, and after Lao Han half-pushed and half-accepted it on the spot, he happily introduced Guiwa to Lao Peng, the head of the livestock broker.

On the third day, that is, on the eve of the Spring Festival, Guiwa and Lao Xue invited Lao Peng and Lao Han to dinner, and had a beautiful meal, as if they had become friends, and they talked very happily.

In this way, after some dotting and dredging, the head snake of Pingyang allowed Guiwa to be a broker in the market after the festival, but people wanted a commission. Singles don't suffer immediate losses, they get commissions, and it's better to earn less than no business, so you have to agree.

Whether Guiwa can really integrate into the circle of those people in Pingyang is not a matter of saying a few words, and it is not clear for a while. Guiwa naturally understood this truth, and didn't even go home during the Spring Festival, so she ran around paving the way and looking for a door. As for everything in Yunling's family, including the children, he couldn't take care of it.

On this day, the weather was sunny, the dog baby got up early in the morning, packed two buns and a green onion in a small cloth bag, and took the money to cross the bridge (from Yunling to Jinpu on the way to cross the river, the river is a pontoon bridge built with a big wooden boat, and you have to pay for crossing the bridge to cross the river), and said to her mother, so she took her legs and rode on the car to Jinpu.

Hungry halfway, the dog baby stopped the bicycle on the side of the road, found a random place to sit down, ate a piece of bun with green onions, drank some water, and continued to hurry. Halfway through, it began to get cloudy, and after a while it began to rain.

Although it was spring, it didn't rain much, but I didn't bring rain gear, and my coat got wet after a while. Fortunately, when I drove out the door, the careful leaves wrapped the burden in plastic sheeting and did not drench the quilt.

After all, the dog baby is a rural child, and he doesn't feel bad when it rains, so he is anxious to go, and he didn't find a place to shelter from the rain, so he just rode to Jinpu. Strange to say, the farther west you go, the less rain falls, and then it doesn't rain at all, or even a sunny day.

In this way, at half past ten in the morning, the dog baby arrived in Jinpu. Seeing that there was mud on his body, the dog stopped his bicycle, ran to the side of the roadside canal, dipped his hand in water and wiped the mud on his body, and then rode into the city. He asked, walked, and went to the parts factory site.

When I arrived at the construction site of the parts factory, it was already noon, and the people of the engineering team went back to their residence for lunch, leaving only a middle-aged man on the construction site looking at the tools.

The dog baby inquired about the tools, and learned that he was not wrong, so he sat on the lump on the side, took out the buns and green onions, and chatted with others while eating, waiting for the arrival of the foreman Duan.

About half an hour later, the engineering team had eaten. But the foreman didn't come, saying that he wanted to rest for a while. However, everyone is a fellow countryman and quite enthusiastic. The person who looked at the tools wanted to go back to his place of residence to eat, so he took the dog baby to find the foreman Duan.

The construction team's residence is not far from the construction site, and the dog baby pushes a bicycle, and the middle-aged man who is watching the tools turns through two alleys, and it takes about 20 minutes to arrive.

The foreman asked the dog, "How old is it?" and "Seventeen." The dog replied. "What?!!!" "Hmm. "Kid! Take off your pants and see if there's any hair. The boyish face of the dog baby turned red all of a sudden, and she lowered her head and stood there blankly, neither walking, nor walking.

"What can you do?" "You can do anything." "Haha. This little ghost has a lot of tone. Foreman Duan shook his head with a smile, he thought to himself: Alas, I really don't know how to send such a young child out to walk the workers.

Seeing the appearance of the dog, the foreman continued: "In this case, put the cover next door, change clothes, eat and go to the construction site." "Hmm. The dog baby happily answered. In fact, Lao Duan saw that the dog baby was drenched, which was quite pitiful, and because of the captain's affection, he reluctantly accepted the dog baby.

This project is not big or complicated, it is to repair the road from the family area to the production plant area. From the family area to the north of an alley, across the main road, into an alley, then through a relatively low-lying open area, and then north of an alley, to the production plant. The section of the road in the low-lying area is potholed, especially difficult to walk, and when it rains, it is even more muddy.

The engineering team repaired this section of the road on the depression. Lower the high places at the two ends, and pad the low places in the middle section, and pave a north-south road like a. At the same time, roll a few small culverts under the road, so that the water on the open land on the west side of the road can be dredged into the drainage ditch on the east side of the road in time.

The dog baby and everyone used a pickaxe to shovel the soil, and used a flat cart to load and pull the soil. It is said to be shoveling soil, but it is not exactly soil, it is more of a mixture of industrial waste and soil from the factory, and it is very difficult to shovel. After a few days of use, I had to replace the pickaxe and shovel, and the dog baby often blushed from dry.

In between work, the foreman asked the dog to use an iron bucket to carry boiling water from the boiler room of the factory to the construction site for everyone to drink. When everyone went back to their place of residence for lunch, the dog baby had to look at the tools on the construction site first, and then the dog baby went back to the place of residence to eat after everyone had eaten.

Needless to say, the work is heavy, and the dog baby is becoming more and more able to eat, and a big bowl of fried noodles can be piled up for a meal, plus a half bun.

The people working in the engineering team are all young and middle-aged, only the youngest of the dog baby, everyone takes good care of the dog baby, but they also like to joke about him.

As soon as he heard someone say that he was too young to work, he had to do the same heavy work as an adult to pull soil.

The older ones always persuaded the dog to be angry with the young man, so as not to get tired and collapse. But the dog baby just didn't listen to persuasion, and had to be reckless to pull the soil to show everyone. Although he was tired and his face was red and sweating profusely, he felt dignified and comfortable.

When building roads, the roads are always full of potholes and clods of soil. It is not an easy task to pull a flat cart of dirt on such a road, and the wheels are either stuck in a pit, trapped in the empty soil, or tripped by a large clod of dirt and cannot be pulled.

One day, the dog baby was pulling a flat cart of soil to walk forward, but he couldn't pull it while walking, he drilled his head, arched his waist and tried his best to pull forward, but he still couldn't pull it. But somehow, the flat car suddenly lightened and pulled.

Looking back, I saw two girls, one was helping him move the big clod in front of the wheel, and the other was pushing forward hard behind the flat car, and the dog baby hurriedly said: "Thank you!" On the way back from the empty car after the dog baby poured dirt, the two girls asked the dog baby: "You are so small, you do such heavy work, are you tired?" The dog baby did not squeak, only shook her head.

After that, every time the two girls passed by, they helped him push the back of the flat car when they saw the dog watu pulling the soil. Later, the dog baby learned that the two girls were students of Jinpu No. 1 Middle School.

Many years later, the dog baby still thinks of the two girls from Jinpu No. 1 Middle School from time to time. Although he didn't know their names, the scene of helping him push the car was deeply imprinted in the dog's mind, and he was grateful to them from the bottom of his heart.

In the engineering team of all men, whether it is a young man who has a family or a young man who is not married, he has a special sensitivity to the opposite sex. They have no entertainment, except for going to work or going to work, and the topic of the sexes is a panacea for their fatigue.

On the construction site, a glance at a beautiful woman passing by will attract a mutual ridicule between workers. At night, twenty or thirty men were crowded on a large earthen kang, and naturally there were constant meat jokes, and there were endless meat words such as what was on the top of people, what was overflowing, and what was missing a wife.

At first, the dog baby was very uncomfortable, and even felt obscene, but after a long time, I got used to it, and I vaguely knew a little about men and women, and sometimes I was even a little excited to listen to this.

In fact, rural boys are also enlightened in such an environment. Although the dog baby listened to these hearts with some disgust, but as the days went by, it became a fun after the heavy work of the engineering team, which is the so-called joy and happiness in suffering.

After the road of the parts factory was repaired, the dog baby followed the engineering team to another construction site to build a building, that is, to build a three-story building. At this time, the engineering team did not have a mixer, and the foreman asked the dog to wear tall rubber boots and constantly step on the concrete mixed with cement, sand and gravel to "mix".

When it was time to beat the beams, the man stood on the scaffolding, hoisted the concrete bucket by bucket with an iron bucket, poured it into a girder mold sandwiched with wooden planks, and then tamped it with a shovel and a vibrating machine.

Bricks are also carried up by hand, or a person throws them up one by one on the ground, and one person stands on the scaffolding to pick them up one by one. Building a building is no more tiring than building a road.

In the past few months, in addition to being sick, the dog baby has never taken a day off, and she has not felt much suffering, but she always looks forward to the rain, does not work, and can sleep well.

Although the bicycle ridden by the dog baby is very worn, he cherishes it very much, and always wipes it clean, and when the car has a little problem, the dog baby will repair it himself. Walking in the downtown on a broken bicycle, he didn't have that feeling of inferiority.

The dog baby often heard his uncle and grandmother say that when it comes to making money, he spends money, and when he mentions spending money, he earns money. During the days when he was a migrant worker in Jinpu, the dog baby did not spend a penny casually, not even a five-cent popsicle, and never watched a movie.

Wash your own clothes when they are dirty, and sew them when they are torn. The engineering team praised the dog baby, saying that he did a really good job of needlework like a girl, and even the foreman's clothes were torn and used to make up for the dog baby.

Gradually, the wheat turned yellow, and it was time to harvest. At noon that day, the engineering team improved their food and ate fried noodles, all of which were eaten tightly, and the dog baby ate two large bowls. After eating and paying for the work, everyone is ready to go home.

Foreman Duan gave the dog baby five yuan a day, ran through the rainy days and did not work, and paid a total of 315 yuan to the dog baby. At this time, an old worker with decades of service only paid more than 40 yuan a month.

The dog baby received so much money at once, and she was so happy in her heart. I ran to the small shop at the gate, bought five packs of cigarettes for two yuan, and scattered them for the foreman and everyone.

In the afternoon of the same day, the dog baby bundled her luggage, got on her bicycle and went back to Yunling.
