Chapter 16
The tail of autumn is almost over, and the hoarding critters are picking up their pace to prepare for the coming winter. The senior students of A University also started their busy work in the fall, going to the study hall to study in college, and getting up to look for a job.
When Yan Licorice and Ruan Jiaojiao came to the city's talent market, it was already around 11 o'clock. There are a lot of recruitment information posted on the outer wall of the talent market, and there are also people who post recruitment newspapers on the talent network when they walk on the road.
When I went in, I saw that there were only a few recruitment positions in the recruitment hall on the two floors, and there were units on them. Ruan Jiaojiao and Yan Licorice took a closer look at the positions of some recruitment sales and salesmen, and saw the two of them coming over, especially after seeing Ruan Jiaojiao, they were very excited to greet each other, "Do you want to try it with us?" There are challenges, and there is room for promotion. ”
Ruan Jiaojiao squinted at first, but then ignored it, turned her head and left, leaving only the swallow licorice there with an embarrassed smile and nodding. When they came down from the second floor, they received some business recruitment advertisements at a small window at the top of the stairs, and when they opened them, they were all recruiting salesmen or factory workshop workers. Whether it's a major or a hobby, it's not something that two people like, so after reading it, they threw it into the trash can on the side.
The recruitment position in the talent market is quite crowded, and there are some advertisements and resumes on the ground, which seems to be quite a lot of units and applicants, but why are there only so many left? They came to the doorman's place, ready to ask the doorman's grandfather.
"Uncle, let me ask, what time does this market open and what time does it close, why are there no recruiting units?" Swallow Licorice asked with her head down and the small opening left in the doorman's glass.
The uncle listened for a while before he got up slowly, looked at Yan Licorice and Ruan Jiaojiao beside her, and said in a not very good tone: "Just graduated, we opened at 8 o'clock and closed at 11:30, and everyone was almost gone around 10:30, you are only here now, what kind of job can you find?" As he spoke, he shook his head and sat back, "Young people nowadays refuse to endure hardship, they just want to be happy." ”
Yan Licorice felt uncomfortable when she heard the old man's words, but she didn't want to say more, so she straightened up and prepared to leave. But Ruan Jiaojiao next to her was a little unhappy when she heard the old man's words, what is the older generation and the younger generation, the older generation has indeed suffered a lot, but most of the conditions were not allowed at that time, and now that the conditions are good, do you still want to gnaw on the nest like before?
The most annoying thing is to hang on people's bodies, the older generation and the younger generation, the post-90s and post-80s, the times are different, and the people created are different. The older generation can teach life or work experience, but it does not mean that the work and life of the younger generation can be completely denied, nor can it be said that the younger generation does not know how to forge ahead. The younger generation naturally has the path that the younger generation wants to take, the new and the old are compared together, and then criticized with a moral height, what kind of elders is this?
Ruan Jiaojiao walked to the old man of the doorman, bent down and was about to say something, but was pulled aside by the licorice next to her. She glared at the licorice, her face full of indignation. Yan Licorice looked at Ruan Jiaojiao and said a little helplessly in her eyes: "What are you talking about with him, every time you encounter this kind of thing, you have to go over and argue, is it interesting?" ”
"I don't argue and argue, they still think we are easy to bully, and they talk about this tone when they have nothing to do, he is willing to endure hardship, he is willing to endure hardship to the doorman?" The more Ruan Jiaojiao said it, the more unconvinced she became.
"It's got it, and the more I talk about it, the more energetic it gets. There's no one here, so let's go back first. Just when I wanted to buy a dress, let's take a bus to the pedestrian mall. Didn't there be a bookstore there that I told you last time, so let's stop by and have a look. Yan Licorice pulled Ruan Jiaojiao out of the talent market.
There were still people on the road who sent out recruitment newspapers, and Yan Licorice didn't want to deal with it, but when she saw that it was a young man of the same age as her, she thought that it was estimated that it was a part-time job, and it was not easy, so she took two copies.
As soon as she took two steps after receiving the newspaper, Ruan Jiaojiao took the newspaper in Yan Licorice's hand and found that it was the same as the one she had just received, so she handed the two newspapers to the grandmother who was waiting to collect the waste paper next to her.
The grandmother opened a small store, and a large cardboard box was placed at the door of the store, and the carton was filled with some recruitment newspapers and leaflets that came and went. Yan Licorice looked at the newspaper inside and sighed with envy: "I pick up the newspaper here every day, I don't have to do anything, and then sell the newspaper I receive, it is estimated that I can make a lot of money, mainly because this job is easy and suitable for me." ”
Ruan Jiaojiao listened and gave Yan Licorice a disdainful look, "Look at your appearance, I'll just say why didn't you let me argue with that old man just now, you have no confidence to dare to love you." ”
"Yes, yes, I don't have the confidence to do it. You think everyone is like you, and I don't want to be a strong woman, I just want to become a rice worm, a big rice worm. "Swallow licorice doesn't feel bad like this, everyone's pursuit is different.
"It's not me talking about you, you're the least productive of us." The tone was not disdainful and a little favorable, she would reach out and put her arm on Yan Licorice's shoulder, pull her closer to herself, and make a good look of a brother, "Forget it, you will rely on me in the future!" Who let me know such a useless person as you? ”
"Then you're getting old." After saying that, both of them burst out laughing.
It was noon when the two of them came to the pedestrian street, but because it was autumn and the sun was not very strong, the weather was not too hot. Because it was Saturday, there were a lot of people on the street, and if two people didn't get closer and hold hands, it was estimated that they would be scattered by the crowd.
After drinking only one bowl of porridge in the morning, the swallow licorice went to the toilet twice, and her stomach is now empty. She pulled Ruan Jiaojiao, who had already put on her sun hat and lowered the brim, to the nearest fast food restaurant.
There are also a lot of people in the fast food restaurant, and there are almost no vacant seats, Yan Licorice went to the front desk to order and wait for meals, while Ruan Jiaojiao looked for any vacant seats in the store. In the end, I asked the waiter to guide the person to the second floor, only to see a vacant seat near the window, and the waiter did not have time to accept the plates left by the previous batch of guests on the vacant seat. Ruan Jiaojiao called the waiter again, put away the plate, and wiped the table.
The two of them were not in a hurry to leave after eating, sitting on the second floor and watching the endless flow of the river downstairs, Ruan Jiaojiao let out a sigh, "The population of our country is really too much, and I still want to have two children in the future with such a large population, what should I do!!!!! ”
Yan Licorice smiled when she heard this, "Let's wait until you find your other half, and have two children, do you have the energy and money to support two children in this era?" ”
"As beautiful as a flower like me, are you still afraid that you won't find a man to have children and raise children?"
"......" Yan Licorice was speechless, drank the juice on the table, and picked up his bag, "Let's go, beautiful as a flower." ”
All the specialty stores have been gone, and the swallow licorice has not bought the dress he talked about. In fact, she just wants to visit the pedestrian street, mainly to visit the bookstore on the pedestrian street and the "Yuanlai" café near the bookstore. She couldn't get into the café because she was too shy to enter, so she could only look at it outside.
She doesn't love books much, at least not as much as Zhong Ling, but she likes bookstores and libraries, because they are quiet, peaceful, and you can smell the good smell of ink when you open the books. Ruan Jiaojiao knows about her hobby and criticizes her for being the same fake book friend as fake morality!
Yan Licorice likes this title very much, and thinks it is very appropriate, and often pulls Ruan Jiaojiao to the library, although most of the romance novels she reads.
The two of them entered the bookstore, and Ruan Jiaojiao walked very lightly and slowly because she was wearing high heels. When passing an old man's house, the old man looked up at Ruan Jiaojiao, saw that she was wearing high heels, and understood why she was walking in this posture. He smiled gently at Ruan Jiaojiao, Ruan Jiaojiao was a little inexplicable when she saw it, but she also nodded and gave him a smile.
Yan Licorice had already let go Ruan Jiaojiao went to the category of romance novels, searched in it, and saw if there were any novels she liked. This time, she wasn't going to flip through the book like she did last time, but to buy other books. The matter of finding an internship unit is still on her mind, and she needs to buy a romance novel to go back and dilute the depression in her heart.
picked two novels by his favorite authors, and Yan Licorice began to look for Ruan Jiaojiao's figure. After taking two steps, I saw that she was watching with relish in the business and finance class. When I came to her, I poked my head over and saw that she was holding the autobiography of a business person.
She touched Ruan Jiaojiao, lowered her voice and asked, "I'm okay, I'll wait for you outside first." As he spoke, he pointed to the book he was holding in his arms and the direction of the door.
Ruan Jiaojiao listened and put the book back in its place, "Let's go, I don't have anything I want to read." ”
The swallow licorice settled the bill, and the two of them walked out, and only a few steps before they heard someone calling the little girl from behind. The two of them stopped, turned around suspiciously, and Ruan Jiaojiao saw the old man who was smiling at her just now coming over.
"Are you calling me?"
"Yes, I think the little girl is good by looking at her face." When she said this, she saw that Ruan Jiaojiao's face was not very good when she heard this, and it was estimated that she had misunderstood, so she said with a smile on her face: "The face I said is just a simple skin and bones, little girl, don't think too much, seeing each other is fate, I will give you a book." ”
As she spoke, she handed the book out of her hand, and Ruan Jiaojiao glanced at a thick bound version of the Analects.
She saw that the old man had a kind face, and that he was sincere, and now she was about to give a copy of the Analects, but when she heard the physiognomy she had just heard, she had disappeared without a trace. She shook her head, "Thank you, I can't ask for your book." ”
The old man smiled when he heard this, as if he knew that she would say this, so he directly put the book in Ruan Jiaojiao's hand, "It's just a book, it's not a big deal, my old man always looks at his mood when he sends things." This is for you, but don't give it back to me. ”
"The little girl looks good, but you can't care too much about it, her appearance is not skinny, you have to be able to accept it yourself, what are other people's opinions on you?" After speaking, he smiled and nodded to Ruan Jiaojiao and walked away.
Yan Licorice felt that what the old man said had a deep meaning, but unfortunately she didn't understand, turned her head to look at Ruan Jiaojiao, and found that she was also in the clouds, and just put the book given by the old man into her bag.
