Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Heel
On the first day of work after the holiday, Mu Yan believes that most people are listless and suffer from various post-holiday syndromes.
She carefully held the pothos in the bag, sadness written on her face.
Forty-three hours have passed, and Qin Hanyang has not moved. She was sometimes sad and indignant at why he could ignore her and ignore her when the contract required her to keep in touch for eight hours.
Pouring out of the subway platform, the crowd dispersed in all directions, rushing to their respective jobs to start the day.
It's not about working to live, but it's about working to be alive. Work hard to live better!
Mu Yan shook her spirits and walked quickly towards the company building.
Come downstairs to the company and see Yang Hong walking towards the building from a distance.
Since Mu Yan met Du Sha's father Du Yufeng, she began to be curious about Yang Hong, a mysterious figure in the company.
She chased Yang Hong quickly with the pothos, and suddenly saw that Yang Hong was not moving there.
"Are you alright?"
"Hurry up and help, it's really unlucky these two days, the car was scratched yesterday, no one repaired it on holidays, and I ran again this morning." Yang Hong grabbed Mu Yan and put one hand on her shoulder.
Mu Yan looked down and saw that Yang Hong's extremely thin heel was stuck in the thin slit of the drainage board.
Yang Hong twisted her feet, and she couldn't pull out her heels no matter how hard she tried. The little blue puffy skirt on her body floated up from time to time as her body writhed, and people who passed by looked back at her from time to time, she was so embarrassed that she felt extremely embarrassed.
Mu Yan simply put down the pothos, let her take off her shoes and step on her lap, squatted on the ground to help her finally pull out the silver stiletto heel.
"What a pity!" Mu Yan looked at the scratches on her stiletto heels.
"I had to go buy a new pair at noon. Why don't you come with me, I'll invite you to dinner. ”
"Our project team is going to go to City D in the afternoon to do the project of Hanyang Industrial Park, and I don't know if the time is in a hurry."
"No problem, I promise you won't lose time. I made quick decisions about buying things! ”
The two talked and laughed and entered the company, and Li Xiang was already sitting radiantly at the front desk.
When he saw them come in, he happily exclaimed, "Beauty, you miss me to death." I've brought you a souvenir. Li Xiang took out a few bags of dried fish and tasted that this is the most famous dried fish in the Dongjiang River, which is particularly delicious. I can eat a bag in minutes.
"Seeing that you are so happy, is it that your doctor's husband's family has offered you like an empress?" Yang Hong teased her.
Li Xiangqing went to her boyfriend's house, and the company almost knew everything. Yang Hong felt that she was really able to bear it when she saw her in-laws for the first time in five years of love!
Li Xiangmei danced to describe the customs of her boyfriend Zhou Xi's family, and she couldn't wait to quit her job immediately and go boating on the pastoral lake in his hometown.
"Hurry up and get married! Women can't afford to wait. If you don't get married, it'll be a seven-year itch, and the dowry your mother wants is actually not much, do you want me to lend it to you first. Yang Hong's words were atmospheric and profound.
Mu Yan's heart fluttered, can I survive three years? Qin Hanyang is like a cloud in the sky, he can't catch it and can't touch it, sometimes cloudy and sometimes sunny, I don't know when it rains, I don't know when it drifts to where!
At noon, Li Xiang saw Yang Hong holding Mu Yan out of the door, and said hurriedly: "Where are you two going, take me one." ”
"Another God! Today I am the only one who loves Mu Yan. ”
Mu Yan patted Yang Hong's arm weirdly, and her face turned red when she said it.
"Look at you, I'm not a man, and you're shy."
Yang Hong's shopping speed is really fast, go straight to the brand she wants, enter the store and glance around, and immediately determine which pair of shoes are her favorite.
This made Mu Yan admire very much, she always felt that she had difficulty choosing. Faced with too many choices, she felt that it was difficult to choose, and she planned to learn like Yang Hong.
Yang Hong chose a small but clean and exquisite tea restaurant, and the two sat down and ordered a few snacks......
"I've been on a diet, you eat more. It's a blessing to be able to eat! Yang Hong pushed the food to Mu Yan's side like a sister.
"You're not fat, what kind of food are you saving!"
"You can't believe it, I was almost one hundred and forty when I was the fattest."
"Impossible." Mu Yan's eyes widened in disbelief, she couldn't imagine what Yang Hong looked like when she was obese, and she was clearly a delicate and graceful woman in front of her, slender and delicate.
"When I was a child, my family was very poor, we couldn't eat enough every day, and we were hungry every day. My brother went to the mountains to pick wild fruits for me to eat, and once he fell from a tree and broke one of his legs. I can't climb trees anymore to pick wild fruits for me. Yang Hong's eyes turned red.
Mu Yan knew that her home was a small place, but she didn't expect her to be so bitter when she was a child.
"What about your parents?"
"My parents went out to work when we were very young, and at first they sent some money, but then they didn't hear from us. I heard from my grandmother that my dad fell from the construction site and fell unconscious, and the contractor lost a few bucks and ran away. My mom took the money and ran away with the wild man. Yang Hong actually laughed when she said this.
Mu Yan poured her a cup of tea, "Then what about later!" ”
"After nothing, no one paid the hospitalization fee, and the hospital stopped my dad's medicine. When my grandmother went, he was already dying. Yang Hong pressed her slender white fingers under her eyes, controlling her emotions.
"My dad should have been in no pain when he left, his consciousness was already dead. It's quite comforting to me. ”
"My dad died of liver cancer, and he ended up losing a lot of weight, and he talked to me and laughed all the time, and I knew he was struggling with the pain." Mu Yan felt that she and Yang Hong were in the same disease, and she felt a little sympathetic.
"When my grandmother died, it was very stormy outside, and you can't imagine it, I pulled her to our private place with a small trailer and buried her with a spade."
Mu Yan looked at the delicate and gorgeous Yang Hong in front of her, unable to imagine what it was like for a little girl to bury the only person she could rely on in the wind and rain.
"My brother has been lying in bed for a year and a half, and when he is finally able to get off the ground, I helped him sharpen a cane, and he practiced walking. When he was seventeen and wanted to continue going to school, I was just thirteen at the time, and I insisted on going to school every day. ”
That summer, I went to the township to find cadres to apply for hardship subsidies and begged them to let my brother go to school.
There happened to be a poverty alleviation and education activity in the township, and a kind person heard about us and helped us. Not only did I help my brother finish high school, but he also helped me all the way to college.
When I first got paid, I went crazy to buy food, and I was so fat for half a year that I didn't look like a man. It is also getting whiter and whiter, and it turns out that the water in the city can really support people. I used to go up the mountain to cut grass and feed pigs and chickens, and my skin was tanned.
Mu Yan glanced at Yang Hong's skin that could be broken by blowing, and she couldn't see the slightest brown shadow that had been. People say that they are born beautiful, and Yang Hong should belong to this kind. Once nourished by the right environment, it shines immediately.
"At that time, I wanted to change to a better job, but I was politely rejected because of my unqualified image, so I made up my mind to lose weight, and I lost 96 pounds in half a year, so I have today. I finally understood the sentence, people who can't control their weight must not be able to control their lives. ”
Mu Yan was stunned when she heard it, and her admiration for Yang Hong went even further.
"It can be said that everything I have now is something I have won by myself, but if there was no benefactor, I would not be where I am today. Maybe I wouldn't be alive without him. Yang Hong was thoughtful.
"Let the past pass! My dad told me to live strong and warm. Yang Hong, I admire you very much. You work harder and stronger than I do. ”
"There is nothing to admire, for a woman to gain a foothold in the workplace, in addition to the necessary skills, she must also be good at using her strengths. Someone in the company privately said that my business orders were obtained by selling hues, and I didn't bother to tell them.
Men are not fools, the most important thing in these years is beautiful women, one recommendation is fresh and tender, why should you exchange benefits with me Yang Hong. ”
Yang Hong drank the last sip of tea in the cup, "The key is what I provide to them, which can bring them benefits." And I, on the other hand, rely on wisdom and do what I like. Betrayal is the lowest practice. Mu Yan, you will slowly understand how realistic this society is. ”
"I've never told anyone about that! I don't know what's going on today? Yang Hong stood up a little tiredly, she was wearing newly bought nude high heels on her feet, which made her long legs whiter and cleaner.
"Is your benefactor still in touch?"
Yang Hong's eyes were confused, paused, and said, "Let's go, I'm really late if I don't go back to the company." ”
