I don't know how long it took, the two of them depended on each other like this, until a gurgling sound came from Sheng's stomach, Xiao Ruoning covered her mouth and chuckled, "Fool is hungry, I'll cook for you!" ”

Xiao Ruoning felt in a trance at that moment, she was like a daughter-in-law who had waited for a long time for her husband to come home, and a touch of crimson surged on her face when she thought of this.

A bowl of boiled noodles is served with a poached egg and sprinkled with chopped green onions. A simple meal. But Sheng Chen was reluctant to eat, "Ning'er, are you going to work tomorrow?" ”

"I only took one day off with my boss, and I naturally have to go to work tomorrow, do you have something to do?" Xiao Ruoning was a little puzzled.

"It's fine!" After speaking, Sheng Chen lowered his head and ate the noodles under Xiao Ruoning's hands, but there was a warm current in his heart. The scenes of the past, all kinds of encounters in this cold city, life without goals and directions, seem to come to an end at this moment, just because I found the lover in my heart.

It wasn't until the sky was completely dark that Sheng Chen came out of the place where Xiao Ruoning lived, the rain stopped, the wind stopped, the haze in the sky dispersed, and a bright moon hung in the night sky, full of stars.

Many thoughts rushed to Sheng Chen's heart, but what he didn't know was that he waited until half past six in the evening, and the pain in his body became more and more unbearable for Cheng Qiuling, so he left with some disappointment.

In that rental house, Sheng Chen lay on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, Xiao Ruoning's contact information could only be said when he saw her, which was undoubtedly torture for Sheng Chen, he wanted to know what Xiao Ruoning was doing all the time, looking at his worn-out mobile phone that had been used for almost two years, Sheng Chen had the idea of replacing it for the first time.

Early the next morning, Sheng Chen went to an open-air construction site to report that the only way he could make money in a short period of time on his own was to work part-time at the open-air construction site.

"Hello, do you still need a part-time worker here?"

"Yes! Why not, boy, you go straight to work, just leave your name at the registration office, and settle your salary before five o'clock in the evening! A man wearing a very thick gold necklace around his neck said. The rough voice echoed in this half-built building,

At the registration desk, simply fill in your name and contact information. Sheng Chen followed the middle-aged man who looked like a contractor and entered the building.

"Brothers, there is a new person today, take care of it, you are like them to build a wall today!" After arranging these, the middle-aged man walked straight down.

"Hello uncle. My name is Sheng Chen, what are you doing with this thing! ”

"What a handsome offspring, smoke a cigarette! Baby, why don't you go to school, go to the construction site to work, this job is not easy to do, Daming, you come and take this little doll! Sheng Chen looked at these people in front of him, the average age was definitely over thirty years old, and the eldest Sheng Chen estimated that he was at least six years old.

"My name is Da Ming, you can just call me Brother Da Ming, how old am I to you! By the way, brother, look at you like this. Are you in your twenties? ”

"I'm just over eighteen years old!" Liu Daming looked at Sheng Chen with an incredulous expression, he was still older in his twenties, how did he know that Sheng Chen had just become an adult.

"Then you are better than brother, uncle, I am thirty-six, just half older than you, and my daughter is only one or two years younger than you." Liu Daming asked Sheng Chen curiously as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Brother Daming, why don't you start work, do you have money to sit here?"

Da Ming lit a cigarette and took a puff. looked at Sheng Chen and said lightly, "I can't see the young man, he is still working very hard, and he can only work after the construction team has finished measuring." Don't sit down and smoke a cigarette, wait. ”

After waiting for nearly half an hour, buckets of white cement were sent up little by little, "Big guy has started, young man, you can just follow me." The two of us are mainly responsible for adding cement to them. ”

A bucket of white cement is not very heavy, only one or twenty catties, seemingly simple work, Sheng Chen did it to know that it was not as simple as he saw.

A bucket of white cement, stepping on the scaffolding that has been erected a little bit of movement, the first time Sheng Chen was so frightened, the scaffolding is a vertical distance from the ground, almost nearly five meters, although it is not very high, but with a bucket full of white cement in his hand, walking in the scaffolding full of gaps everywhere. It's a very troll thing.

Even though Liu Daming has a lot of experience, his footsteps are still not very fast on the scaffolding, but he has one thing that Sheng Chen can't have now, that is, he is very steady with every step, unlike Sheng Chen's two legs swinging straight.

"Don't be so nervous, young man, everyone has their first time, relax slowly, don't make your feet hard, just take your time and get used to it." An old man with a calm expression and an indifferent face spoke, his green liberation shoes, stepping on the scaffolding, were exceptionally stable, and his legs did not shake at all.

Sheng Chen took a deep breath, this time he must not compromise with the difficulties by bowing his head no matter what, and walked up with trepidation, the scaffolding was built in the simple passage, according to Sheng Chen's visual inspection, it was about seven or eight meters long, and the width was relatively speaking, not less than a star and a half, only the distance between two palms.

Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, Sheng Chen cheered himself up and said, "Fight, it's no big deal!" Then the whole person walked through it quickly, and there was not a trace of trembling during the scaffolding.

"Whew..."Sheng Chen breathed a sigh of relief, for the first time I felt that the money on this construction site was not easy to earn, there was no place where the money was lightly obtained, it was the same as the effort you put in.

Throughout the morning, Sheng Chen's footsteps were shuttling on the scaffolding, and he didn't know how many times he went back and forth, up and down, at this moment he was really tired, and beads of sweat slid down his cheeks. He didn't care about it, he squatted down to rest for a while when he was tired, and even his addiction to smoking was much lightened with fatigue, and he didn't smoke a cigarette all morning, and the one who gave him a cigarette when he first came to his ear.

"This posterity is really diligent and capable!" A few people were talking, but they didn't stop moving in their hands, and the cement knife in their hands dug up a ball of white cement and smeared it evenly on the wall, which was very smooth.

Before I knew it, it was noon, and the contractor sent a bundle of beer, ten catties of steamed buns, pork vermicelli stewed in a large pot, and a simple meal, but it was already the biggest reward for people who had worked hard all morning.

Sheng Chen looked at the group of people in front of him, although they have no culture, but everyone's expectations for life are still very high, some need a house of their own, and some want their children to become talents, the first time Sheng Chen knew in a real sense that the dream of being at the bottom of the society is also quietly blooming...
