Chapter 2 Ascending to the Heights and Looking Ahead
The pieces of butterfly clothes are light, and the little scarlet is small.
The Tao is that God does not hesitate to spend flowers, and is planting a thousand kinds of ingenuity.
In the morning, the trees are numerous, and at dusk there are few branches.
The Tao is the fruit of heaven and cherishes the flowers, and the rain washes the wind and blows.
This Monday, I got up earlier than Cao Yu and Yuping, and went to work as a worker in the company on the first day, so as to leave a good impression on everyone.
The counselor readily agreed to my request to leave the school for a while, as the credits I had taken were already enough for the semester. Thinking that I don't have to run the classroom every day, I am happy, but I also have a faint regret.
I found Secretary Li first in [Yadu], because the boss was not there, and she had more words. The efficiency is really fast, the custom-made work clothes have been in place, she took them out for me to change into, and by the way, she also pointed out some things to pay attention to in the company.
The overalls are dark gray suits, the color is solemn and calm, the workmanship is also very good, and the straight jacket is worn, Secretary Li praised me for being very energetic. She said that the newly recruited employees had to pay a deposit for their clothes, and they could only return them after a certain amount of time in the company, because the boss specifically ordered me to do so.
Secretary Li's work clothes are skirts of the same color, which looks decent and generous. Large companies are doing well in all aspects, [Yicheng Science and Trade] It is necessary to learn it, Brother Shu's customized uniforms are indeed not of grade.
"Sister Li, what is the interpersonal relationship like in our company?" After talking, I felt that the relationship between this secretary and Mr. Huang was very unusual, and she might have to take more care of her in the future, and called her sister.
Secretary Li pursed his lips and smiled: "You can call my sister when no one is around, but you can pay attention in front of the staff, just call me Assistant Li." ”
"Thank you, sister, for your advice." My mouth is very sweet, maybe I'm a little nervous, but it's the first time I've come out to work, and I really hope that I can have a good relationship with everyone.
"As for the interpersonal relationships in the company, it's very complicated, and after a long time, you can see it yourself, and if you have any problems, come to me at any time." Assistant Li's tone is still very strict, and he deserves to be the assistant to the general manager.
******
"Manager Yu, this is the company's new Yu Yicheng, Mr. Huang personally arranged it, and I want to intern in your department for a period of time." After Assistant Li led me to the sales and service department, I went directly to the manager's office.
Manager Yu's expression was cold, I heard that it was arranged by the boss personally, and he did not show extra enthusiasm, and there was a trace of contempt in his eyes.
The manager is a woman in her thirties with short hair. People are not very pretty, and they seem to be energetic. I've been paying attention to her performance, and the change in her expression hasn't escaped my observation. It seems that there are many differences between society and school, so I need to pay more attention.
"Manager Yu, I am a student of Shuimu, and I came to Yadu to exercise this time, please give me more advice."
Hearing that it was a student at school, she raised her head and looked at me a few more times, and her playful expression flashed, but she didn't ask much: "There's nothing to advise, come with me and get to know my colleagues." ”
didn't even smile, and felt that this Manager Yu was not too easy to get along with. Thinking to himself, he walked out with her.
The studio is a large ensuite. The inner room is not large, a few desks are crowded with desks, and there are eye-catching staff rules on the wall, and I glanced at it in a hurry, which is nothing more than a kind attitude, and I can't quarrel with the guest room or something. If you look at the "commentary", you will know that this is a place of right and wrong.
Outside, there are spacious rooms, and a few circles of sofas are placed in the large open space to form an area, which is prepared for easy communication with customers.
Manager Yu briefly explained a few words to a few colleagues and said to me, "You can get to know everyone first." Then he said to an old man next to him, "Xiao Wang, you take this newcomer Yu Yicheng to familiarize yourself with our rules here." ”
As soon as she went out, several people who had been sitting peacefully "hula" all gathered around, asking long and short questions in a gossipy, and the enthusiasm was incredible, and the quarrel was so loud that I didn't know which one to answer first.
"Alright, everybody, work hard." Manager Yu killed the horse pistol and appeared at the door again. Everyone immediately returned to their places, leaving only the elder brother known as Xiao Wang who remained by his side because of the holy purpose.
He shook my hand happily: "Wang Yunmin, just call me Brother Wang." ”
"Hey, brother, I said you have a relationship, why did you choose this department?" He asked in a whisper as he pulled me aside.
Now is not the time for the company to recruit employees, and there are of course various reasons for being able to get in. I deliberately asked puzzledly, "Brother Wang, is there anything wrong with our sales and service department?" ”
He was like seeing an animal coming out of the primeval forest: "It seems that you really don't understand, after-sales service, after-sales service, to put it bluntly, is not the air department, after staying for a long time, people have become neurotic." The salary is not much, Manager Yu is still very strict, and people who have a little bit of access are reluctant to come to this department, and there is no way for a few of us. ”
Brother Wang is outspoken, and he is really worried that such a comrade will not work for long, and he will be in danger of being fired. I am very grateful to him in my heart, and I think about him in an all-round way. smiled, not wanting to cause him more scratches, it would be bad for others to hear: "Brother Wang, tell me about our rules and regulations." ”
He pointed to something on the wall and said, "It's all here, just memorize it, this is our guideline." Seeing that I didn't answer the question, I was worried that I was a "spy" sent by the company, so I didn't mention the previous topic anymore.
Soon, several colleagues became familiar with each other, not counting Manager Yu, there were three women and two men, plus I was just balanced, this is a relatively small department. They have one thing in common, that is, they are all more eloquent. Also, to deal with those who come to complain, it is the least that you can speak well. I was put here without review, no wonder Manager Yu was not very satisfied.
The first day on the job was peaceful, with only a few customers coming to inquire and no heated arguments as I expected, and it seemed that I had seen everything too complicated. The rules and regulations of the department were quickly understood, and the enthusiastic Brother Wang heard that I was a student in school, and he specially found a copy of the "Consumer Rights Protection Law" to show me, saying that he was optimistic that he could protect himself more.
When I return to the apartment every night, I still study the website with Cao Yu and Yuping, which doesn't need to go to the classroom, but seems to have more time.
The first week of work was really uneventful, and there was nothing to praise. I started getting along well with a few brothers and sisters, and everyone laughed at each other and had fun. Later, Mr. Huang came to see me once, and asked for warmth. Several of my colleagues seemed to be wary of me, and the relationship that was supposed to be harmonious turned out to be rusty.
After work, several male colleagues often invited each other to have dinner or tea, but they did not ask me to go with them once. Because I'm still a student? I don't know if it's because my boss attaches great importance to me.
I beg to agree with the way it works here. Receiving visiting customers, I only saw colleagues using various methods to perfunctory, and few solutions to solve the problem were really come up, as long as the visitors were fooled away, even if the task was successfully completed. There is no integrity at all, is this the after-sales service of the seemingly prosperous real estate industry?
Confidence can't help but be greatly hit, [Yadu] is a relatively successful and large-scale company, is this what it is like to participate in the work? I was full of passion for coming out to practice and exercise, but I was so bored.
Very depressed, feeling sluggish, as if there is no place to use the strength. It is difficult for colleagues to become close friends, and it is especially sad that Manager Yu always seems to not look at me properly, as if I am some kind of defective product.
On Friday, I wasn't assigned any tasks, so I had a day off tomorrow. You have to relax, and if you go on like this, you have to make a mistake.
Although they argued with Cao Yu and them until late, they still woke up early the next day, feeling very boring. What should be done?
went out and walked towards Beichen. Fulfill your promise to Jiang Tingting and ask her out to have fun.
While thinking about her thoughts, she slowly arrived downstairs in their girls' dormitory, and then remembered that she should call her first and make an appointment. It's still early on the big weekend, so it's definitely not appropriate to bite the bullet.
Girls are more diligent than boys, and soon someone answered the phone, listened to the voice, and got up again. After contacting, I waited for a long time to see Jiang Tingting go downstairs, but there was still a person hiding behind her, and after a closer look, it turned out to be the talkative and noisy Chen Mei.
"Handsome guy, why don't you bring a bouquet of flowers when you ask our beautiful woman out, there is no mood at all." It makes sense, I didn't think I should bring something.
"Okay Chen Mei, go up quickly, just send it here." Jiang Tingting gently pushed her roommate, daring to be escorted so close.
Chen Mei clearly came to join in the fun, but she didn't see the show, and muttered "...... The matchmaker sent it to the wall" and so on, Jiang Tingting's face flushed.
When Chen Mei disappeared, she followed me outside.
"Yicheng, is it just the two of us?" After walking out of the campus, Jiang Tingting asked in a low voice.
"yes, just the two of us, okay?"
"Of course." Jiang Tingting replied quickly, and immediately realized something, her face suddenly turned red, and she explained hurriedly, "I didn't mean that." Odd? How could you suddenly remember to ask me out. ”
Jiang Tingting's expression is very interesting, she is wearing snow-white sportswear, her long hair is tied behind her head, and she is neatly tied. The face was not retouched, because of shyness, a flush appeared on the white cheeks, and the crooked eyes narrowed, looking very energetic.
Seeing that I wanted to speak and stopped, looking listless, she asked again: "Won't there be anything you want me to help again, they are all classmates, just open your mouth, but I can do it." ”
The interrogation made me feel very guilty, I used to always think of her when I had something, such as attending Sister Yongqing's wedding and asking her to be her companion or something. I felt ashamed, and I had to answer cheekily: "Do you have to have something to invite you?" I just want to ask you out for a walk, or let's take a car to the back mountain to have fun. ”
"You're such an interesting person." Jiang Tingting didn't think much about it, and laughed happily, "People only go to the mountains to see the red leaves in autumn, what can you see now?" ”
"Do you have to see the autumn leaves? We are all young people, and we should look at more green things, which are good for our health. I felt that my defense was so powerless, and in the face of her, I always felt that I owed her.
Jiang Tingting gently twisted the corners of her clothes, and said in a mosquito voice: "Then it's up to you." ”
The bus was easy and quickly reached the foot of the back mountain. "Yicheng, I've been working for a week, how do you feel, are you still used to it? Seeing you like this, did you encounter something unpleasant? Looking up at the green mountains, Jiang Tingting was very interested, and she didn't forget to care about me.
Feeling the sensitivity of the girl's feelings, Suo surnamed told her the truth: "It's nothing, it's just that I don't feel interesting in that company, it's too bland, I can't learn anything, it's not as passionate as I imagined." ”
"Actually, that's how it is, do you think it's good to enter society? That's too idealistic, in fact, school life is simpler and more nostalgic. "The words that came out were full of philosophy, and I always felt that with me, she was not so talkative. couldn't help but take a closer look again, Tingting understood a lot of truth.
While chatting and climbing up the mountain, my heart knotted and my interest rose. When he walked to a narrow part of the mountain road, he naturally reached out and pulled her up.
Jiang Tingting struggled slightly, and let me hold her hand.
"Tingting..."The slippery little hand was held by me, a different feeling.
"Well, what?" This section of the mountain road is relatively narrow, Jiang Tingting's hand has been held by me, and her voice is slightly trembling.
"I suddenly remembered the situation when we were in Wu Mian Mountain, Cao Yu's hometown, and still thought about the time when we caught rabbits?" Everyone played together in the rain, unrestrained, and had a great time. There is also the story of Jiang Tingting treating the dog as a wolf, afraid that she would be shy, so she was embarrassed to mention it.
Hearing me talk about what happened at that time, Jiang Tingting blushed and withdrew her hand. I must have thought of the same place, and deliberately diverted my words, but said to me: "Yes, it is really a fairyland on earth, and the scenery is much more beautiful than here." ”
"I really want to live in the mountains all the time, so I miss the words there, the countryside is simple, and I have friends to accompany me, how good."
"Hmm." Jiang Tingting agreed, thinking about the situation at that time, her expression was slightly flustered. One was careless, his feet slipped, and he couldn't help but let out an "oops".
Hurriedly turned around and took her hand again: "Be careful, Tingting, are you okay?" ”
She moved her feet slowly, stepped on the ground, and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Although she said it was fine, I still took a small hand and didn't let go, for fear of another accident. The mountain was not high, and gradually the two of them were approaching the top of the mountain.
In the spring season, the weather is surprisingly good, and the sun is warm. At the foot of the mountain, I didn't even notice a hint of wind. After reaching the top, the cool breeze is blowing, and there is a slight chill in the late spring season. Under the mountain breeze, Jiang Tingting's body shook slightly, and I took off my coat and draped it over her shoulders.
"I'm fine, you don't wear much." Seeing that I only had one shirt left, she insisted on giving it back to me. Gently pressed her shoulders to prevent her from taking them off.
Just as another gust of wind was blowing, Jiang Tingting shuddered, and involuntarily tightened her clothes, so she no longer shirked, and said considerately: "There is a leeward pavilion over there, let's go and sit for a while." ”
Ascending to the top and looking into the distance, I suddenly felt that the originally prosperous city looked so small, and I couldn't help but sigh lightly.
Sitting down next to me with the corner of one shoulder, Jiang Tingting said softly: "Yicheng, we are all the same, why do you have so many feelings." ”
was said to be in the heart, still looking into the distance, did not answer, yes, the same young man, how can I have so many feelings.
"You have done too well in the past, so you can't stand a little setback, in fact, failure is also an important part of life, you won't know the truth of abolishing first and then standing up."
I couldn't help but nod, she said it so deeply.
It's not much, but for me, it's undoubtedly a great empowerment. No one has ever said it so thoroughly before, Sister Chen and Yunxi just spoil me, it seems that everything is good, Tingting should not be underestimated, it is really good to have such a person to remind me at any time.
"The gong doesn't need to be hammered with a hammer", her words have already alerted me, how can I discourage my confidence so easily? Most of the roads to success are tortuous, smooth sailing is encounterable but not sought, just because of the previous success of the matter to take it for granted that everything should go well, and "wait for the rabbit" is no different.
Seeing that I didn't answer, Jiang Tingting glanced at it resentfully, turned her head back, and her eyes were cast into the distance. After the wind blew, his eyes narrowed even more: "I didn't want to tell you before, for fear of ruining your interest." Are you having any problems now? Tell me about it, even if you can't help, you can feel better. ”
Jiang Tingting, who was sitting next to me in my coat, looked extremely thin, and it seemed that most of the people were wrapped in it, which made people feel pity, how could they bear to talk about unpleasant topics.
"It's not a big deal, it's just a little boring. Spring is blooming, and the air on the top of the mountain is so good, let's talk about something happy. ”
"Hmm." Jiang Tingting answered and talked about the new things in the school. It sounds a little far away from me, it's the same college life, how can mine not be as colorful as hers. Maybe you pay too much attention to things, and you lose the joy you deserve.
By noon, the weather was getting warmer, and the two of them ate some snacks on the top of the mountain. Listening to her "twittering" and laughing, I felt very funny and my mood improved. Later, it gradually became colder, and Jiang Tingting's body leaned on my body at some point.
There was a feeling that I couldn't bear to blasphemy, so I just gently grabbed a little of her shoulder with my hand and looked at her thin body with pity. Seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, they walked down the mountain together.
"Tingting, I met your uncle after the Chinese New Year." While eating at Beichen's cafeteria, I told her about meeting Uncle Wu.
"Really? Such a coincidence. Jiang Tingting put down the spoon, swallowed the food in her mouth, and looked up at me.
"Yes, what a coincidence, Uncle Wu is really an open-minded person." I remembered the experience he had told me about, and I couldn't help but feel emotional.
"It's not easy for my uncle to be alone, my mother told me about him, but when I went to see him, he refused to tell me, and I didn't expect to tell you."
"I don't even have someone to take care of, so pitiful. I'll go see him after a while, but a lot of times I don't know what to say. Jiang Tingting continued to tell me.
"His business is great and I learned a lot from him." I do admire her.
Jiang Tingting whispered: "What's the use? He lacks fun in life, so he can only devote himself to studying. I'll go see him again in a few days, will you come with me? ”
"No problem." I happily agreed.
From time to time, someone passed by us and looked at me with curiosity. Beautiful and capable, she is also a character in Beichen, stared at by eyes of various meanings, like a needle on her back.
Suddenly, a boy ran in from outside the cafeteria and walked up to us: "Tingting, is this your classmate?" They didn't introduce me to acquaintances. ”
Jiang Tingting looked at me with her eyes, and a trace of panic flashed: "Yicheng, this is Minister Liu of our student union." ”
This is not to provoke, I finally have a feeling for Tingting, and someone will come to dismantle the stage. stood up and shook hands with him, and introduced himself: "Yu Yicheng, Tingting's high school classmate, is also a best friend. The word friend is particularly accentuated, and I don't like people's attitude towards me.
The person who came was a little weak, and he looked quite standard. After listening to my words, a trace of hostility flashed in his eyes: "Hello, my name is Liu Qi, I am from the Department of International Relations of Beichen, I don't know where you are studying?" Although the tone was polite, it revealed a kind of arrogance.
Look at the eyes and listen to the voice, this should be Tingting's suitor, and I didn't see him come to eat with a guy, obviously he heard the wire report and came in a hurry. The pursuit of beauty is everyone's right, and it shouldn't be too much to worry about others, and he smiled faintly: "I went to an ordinary school." ”
turned around and said, "Tingting, it's not too early, let's go." Jiang Tingting has finished eating and is packing up.
I nodded to Liu Qi: "I'm sorry, I missed it." "Help her grab her things and get ready to leave.
Liu Qi caught up from behind: "Tingting, if you have time tomorrow, I invite you to go out to play." ”
Jiang Tingting didn't answer immediately, but looked at me beside her, meaning that she wanted to help her block it. Smile at her, she should have the right to choose.
"No, I have something to do tomorrow." Jiang Tingting chose to refuse.
"And when are you free?" Liu Qi still refused to give up, performed the trick of picking up girls, and continued to stalk.
remembered what Lingyu said, as well as Jiang Tingting's various benefits. I made up my mind, stretched out my arm, signaled to Tingting, and said to Liu Qi with a smile: "Tingting's spare time basically belongs to me. ”
This statement is undoubtedly equivalent to announcing that Jiang Tingting is my girlfriend. Her face flushed, she cooperatively grabbed my hand, nodded at Liu Qi, and walked out wordlessly.
******
At the beginning of a new day, Yu Yixin, who was completely knotted, stepped into [Yadu] with a hundred times the heart, and just arrived at the after-sales service department, he could hear a noise inside.
