―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
On the evening of the 14th day of the seventh lunar month, every household in the mid-mountain village will set off firecrackers to send away the ancestors who have "gone home".
By the river, paper wallets are piled on top of firewood and lit from the ground, and it is said that all the paper money will be turned to ashes. If it doesn't completely melt away, all you receive over there is a few missing coins. All in all makes sense.
It is rare for the riverside to be so careful to burn the paper money boy carefully.
While burning the money, Jiangbian whispered, "Dad, my son burned a lot of money for you, if you receive it, take it to marry a mother-in-law!" It's cheap anyway! As much as you want, I'll burn it for you later. ”
As he spoke, he began to cry.
The fire burned so vigorously that a strong wind blew and lifted the flames, mixed with sparks, and rushed into the sky.
Jiangbian looked at the sparks flying around in the wind and said, "Daddy! I'm going out tomorrow, and I don't know when I'll be back! Don't worry, I will burn paper money for you every New Year's holiday. I understand that I must be a good man, marry a good mother-in-law in the future, give birth to a few children, and I will definitely bring them to your grave to worship you! ”
This night, Jiangbian couldn't sleep, he had never been farther away than Shanmen Town when he was so big, and he was always a little nervous when he thought of going to that strange place tomorrow.
I took out my mobile phone that I hadn't used a few times, only to find that it had already run out of power and turned off automatically. Hurriedly get out of bed, plug in the charger, and turn it on.
As soon as the phone was turned on, a large number of prompt text messages poured out. Jiangbian doesn't use mobile phones very often, and can barely read text messages, but he won't reply.
Most of the prompt text messages are that someone called at some time, for more information, please call xxxx.
Jiangbian didn't have to think about it to know who called. directly pressed the broadcast button and immediately dialed Liu Huijun's phone.
"Jiangbian, why does your phone keep turning off!" As soon as Liu Huijun answered the phone, she asked anxiously.
Jiang Bian scratched his head, "It's out of power, I don't know if it's turned off, you know, I haven't used my phone much." There's no phone either! Tomorrow I'm ready to go out and go to Qiantang City. Have you done anything over there? ”
Liu Huijun's side was quiet for a while before he said, "The family is very opposed!" It's not like you don't know the customs here. Divorce, the family loses face! But this time, I was determined to divorce the marriage. ”
Jiang Bian didn't speak, and listened carefully to Liu Huijun and continued, "I called Jiang Dahu two days ago, and I heard that my legs and feet are almost able to stand up, even if they can't return to normal, they won't end up in a wheelchair." Although he still agrees to do things, the affairs of the two children are always not good to talk about. ”
"Otherwise, you can go to Qiantang City with me!" Jiangbe said.
Liu Huijun was silent for a while before he said again, "Jiangbian, this matter is not urgent. You are a few years younger than me, and I have two children, and now you don't dislike me, what about the future? I'm always getting older, and you're still young. You now go to the big city, where you will meet younger, prettier, more virtuous girls, and maybe at that time, you will regret it. ”
"I won't! Huijun, you know I'm not that kind of person! Otherwise, we're in the middle of the village, and I'm not going anywhere, the two of us stay here all the time! Kawabe said.
"Nope! You have to go! If I trapped you in the middle of the village, even if you don't regret it in the future, I will regret it. The mid-levels village is too small! Not for you! Gotta get out! Liu Huijun hurriedly comforted.
"But if you don't go, what's the point of me being alone?" Jiangbe said.
Liu Huijun thought for a long time and said, "Jiangbian, let's make an agreement!" A year from now, if you still care about me like you do now, I'll marry you! I won't be in touch with you during the year! If you promise, I'll wait for you! If you don't agree, then I'd rather find someone to marry. ”
Jiangbian had no choice but to say, "Okay! One year! A year later, I want you to be my mother-in-law by the river! ”
Jiangbian rushed to the dock early in the morning, and a few days ago he had set up a diesel boat to pick up people, and the price was high enough that people were willing to come early in the morning.
Sitting on the boat, I looked at the entrance of the village by the river, hoping to see the familiar figure, but it was empty, and the green willow trees on the shore were waving in the wind.
Eibe sat down with some disappointment, he knew she wouldn't come. Maybe it won't be a year before we see her. At that time, she will become her mother-in-law.
The boat drove far away, but a slender woman came out from behind the dense wicker, who else could there be if it wasn't Liu Huijun? She watched the boat slowly move away, and by the time the figure by the river disappeared around the bend, she was already teary-eyed.
In the bus station of Shanmen Town, there are not many people in normal times, and when I sat on the bus by the river, there were only three or four people in the car, and it was not full when the bus departed.
The car started, and the town of Sanmen slowly disappeared behind him. I was a little nervous by the river, and I didn't know what kind of scenery would be ushered in where the car was heading?
***
Li Yueji has been in Qiantang City for more than two months, and she has slowly adapted to life here.
It's good for people to be beautiful, but it also brings a lot of trouble. There was so much trouble in Shanmen Town, but it was okay to leave that small place in Shanmen Town. Come to your favorite city.
Li Yueji only has a college degree, and now in the city, there are many doctors and masters, and there are even more undergraduates. It's really hard to find a job for a junior college student. Regular recruitment, look down on Li Yueji, who only has a college degree, and the irregular place is to ask for people, and Li Yueji does not dare to go.
After tossing and turning for a long time, the money brought by Li Yueji was almost running out, but the job was still unsettled.
A month ago, Li Yueji took her recommendation letter and prepared to go to the talent market for the last time, and if she couldn't find a job this time, she was ready to go home or go to another city.
In the morning, the bus is generally very crowded, and the place where Li Yueji rents is a little far away from the station, and on the other side.
When Li Yueji got out of the intersection, he saw the bus coming, and there were a lot of people at the station, swarming to the car.
Li Yueji looked anxious and hurriedly ran over. Although I walked on the sidewalk, I came out too suddenly.
At this time, it is the rush hour for work, and there are many vehicles on the road.
A red car drove over, driven by a professional woman, dressed very exquisitely, with slightly curly hair, light makeup, well-dressed, not luxurious, but the style is unique.
Her name is Xiao Yalin, a veritable rich second generation. But she has been very fond of cooking since she was a child, which is somewhat out of step with the trend of modern new female surnames. In her eyes, being a chef is an extremely noble job, from the selection of ingredients, washing and cutting, mixing, to cooking, every process is like an artistic process. Unlike artistic creation, cooking can not only provide artistic enjoyment, but also provide high-quality nutrition for the body.
Xiao Yalin is extremely good at making fish, is familiar with various ways to cook fish, and has summed up some unique dishes by herself, and is also slightly famous in the culinary world of Qiantang City.
After graduating from university, Xiao Yalin ran a fish restaurant by herself, serving as the general manager and chef at the same time.
Recently, the restaurant has expanded, and Xiao Yalin is busy training newcomers every day, and rushes to the store early in the morning. I was thinking about the store again, and I didn't look at the road conditions very carefully. I didn't see the zebra crossing in front of me, and naturally I didn't slow down.
When she saw Li Yueji breaking into the road from the side of the road, Xiao Yalin immediately panicked, but fortunately, when it was critical, she didn't use the accelerator as a brake.
"Crunch!"
Xiao Yalin braked the car tightly, but the aftermath still knocked Li Yueji to the ground.
Li Yueji's injury was not very serious, but when he fell to the ground, his arm rubbed on the ground, and a layer of skin was worn out.
Xiao Yalin hurriedly got out of the car, helped Li Yueji up, and said repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Are you hurt? ”
Li Yueji frowned, "How did you drive!" Fortunately, it is only worn out a little, so it shouldn't be a big problem. ”
"Luckily! Get in the car! I'll take you to the hospital for a check-up to see if you hurt your bones! Xiao Yalin said.
"No, just rub some medicine! I've got something to do! Li Yueji didn't want to give up the opportunity of the talent fair.
When Li Yueji fell to the ground, the small bag in his hand also fell to the ground, and all the contents were spilled out. More than a dozen resumes were scattered all over the place.
Xiao Yalin helped Li Yueji up, and helped Li Yueji pick up things one by one. And took the last resume he picked up and looked at it, "You're in a hurry to find a job?" ”
Li Yueji nodded, "Yes, you have to go early, otherwise you will definitely have to wait in a long line." ”
"Little sister, it's still important to be in good health, come with me to the hospital first! Put aside the matter of finding a job first, if there is any problem that is not discovered in time, it will be too late to regret it later. Don't worry, I'll take care of it to the end. In addition, my company also needs to recruit people, if you like it, you can come with me. You can rest assured, it is definitely legitimate business. Xiao Yalin said.
In this way, Li Yueji was fooled by Xiao Yalin from a victim to her own employee. The perpetrator turned into a boss.
Li Yueji felt that she was very lucky, in her eyes, it was not a car accident, she was hit by the god of luck on the waist, and she was in pain and happy.
For Xiao Yalin, meeting Li Yueji was simply an unexpected gain, and in just one month, Li Yueji showed her talent in management.
From the beginning, Li Yueji was appointed by Xiao Yalin as the manager of Arlinn Fish Restaurant, managing the daily affairs for herself, while she concentrated on cooking. Originally, Xiao Yalin thought that it didn't matter how this private restaurant was managed, anyway, the people who came to eat were some regular customers. Giving Li Yueji this position, on the one hand, is a compensation for hitting Li Yueji and delaying her to find a job, and on the other hand, it is also because this person is very simple, let her manage it, and she can also put her mind at ease.
What Xiao Yalin didn't expect was that as soon as Li Yueji came, the fish restaurant underwent a huge change, and the originally somewhat free and casual staff were also managed in an orderly manner, but there were no complaints, and she was able to study new dishes with peace of mind.
What especially surprised Xiao Yalin was that Li Yueji didn't know how to contact some suppliers of organic agricultural products, which made the raw materials of agricultural products in private dishes a higher level than before. In particular, there has been a radical change in the availability of fish.
Xiao Yalin is a person who can even ignore the cost of cooking for the sake of cooking, and the excellent raw materials naturally enrich the dishes of private dishes, which gives Xiao Yalin's talent room to play.
In fact, not only did the fish restaurant not lose money, but its profits doubled after the business boomed.
