1385. Turmeric lily
Knowing that there was no money for the Guinness World Records certification, the bull was dumbfounded, he looked at Qin Shiou, who shrugged his shoulders and said, "You don't think I got the money last time, do you?" No, not a penny. ”
Bull: "Shet, why should I certify this thing?" ”
Winnie comforted him and said, "Don't worry, although Guinness World Records does not have a bonus, our town will give you a certain bonus, but your cucumber will be contributed to the town......"
Speaking of this, she thought about it for a moment: "Forget it, you better keep it for yourself, we just need to take some pictures." In addition, I will also help you apply to the city government, and I should also get a part of the bonus. ”
Anne asked wistfully, "Is that okay?" ”
Winnie smiled: "Of course, you have set a world record after all, which is a positive improvement for the image of our town and the city government, especially since our town is still dominated by tourism." ”
Qin Shiou gave a thumbs up and said to the left and right: "Look at our Mayor Winnie, she is really a qualified and good person, she never forgets to work for the welfare of our townspeople, and she never forgets to develop the town." ”
The fishermen applauded, and Winnie smiled and pulled the corner of her skirt and bent over and nodded in a ladylike salute.
Qin Shiou drove Winnie to work in the town, and then was about to go back to the fishing grounds, when someone stopped his car, and he looked at Song Qingshan, who was wearing a cleaner's uniform, smiling at him.
Seeing this, he got out of the car and asked, "Hey, fellow, are you in any trouble again?" How can I help? ”
Song Qingshan rubbed his hands and said, "No, we didn't encounter any trouble, we are doing well here." That is true. Mr. Qin, Kapale and I would like to treat you to a meal. Thank you for your help to us. ”
Hearing this, Qin Shiou put his heart back in his stomach. He politely refused: "It's not necessary, buddy, we are all fellow countrymen, of course I have to help if I can." Besides, it's just a gesture for me, and if I'm proud of it, that's not good. ”
Song Qingshan said gratefully: "No, no, Mr. Qin, this may be a gesture for you. It was a lifesaver for both of us! ”
Saying that, he sighed, "When I was looking for a job, we met some people, some fellow villagers or something, they were also deceived, and some of them haven't found a job until now, and their lives are very miserable." If it weren't for your help, they would be our role models. ”
At this time, Kapalai, who was cleaning the streets in the distance, saw it, waved at Qin Shiou in front of the car, and then ran over excitedly and said, "What a coincidence." Mr. Qin, please let me cook a meal for you, thank you for your help. ”
Since both have said so. Qin Shiou was too embarrassed to refuse again, otherwise it would make people feel that he looked down on them. So he said, "Have you gotten paid?" Or you can wait until your salary is paid. ”
Song Qingshan said happily: "Mrs. Winnie sent us a weekly salary, and we have mailed the money home several times. I also took a lot of photos and sent them to my family on QQ. They were very happy that I could stay in such a nice place. ”
As he spoke, the high-spirited man's eyes turned red: "Really, Mr. Qin, if you hadn't taken us in, I would not only be in trouble now, but my family would also be worried." ”
Just like Qin Shiou said to Chen Lei and others, Canada is not a paradise, looking at these workers who have been exported from labor, their lives are very difficult, especially when looking for a job, it is especially painful, and Song Qingshan has suffered a lot.
Capale said: "It doesn't cost much, Mr. Qin, it's me who cooks hometown food, Cuban food, I don't know if you appreciate it." ”
In this way, Qin Shiou had no reason to refuse, he said, "Dinner?" No problem, my wife and I will definitely go to your dormitory on time. ”
Kapale smiled and nodded, "Then six o'clock is okay?" Come at six o'clock, I'll get off work at five o'clock, get ready. ”
It's also nice to work as a cleaner on Farewell Island, where St. John's cleaners work from 8 to 5 with an hour to eat and rest at noon.
It's okay to go back, this time he didn't have to entertain Kelly and the others, so Qin Shiou simply went to the gun shop, soaked there for an afternoon, and when Winnie got off work, he directly picked her up and told her about Kapalai and Song Qingshan's treat.
Winnie thought for a moment and suggested, "Then we still have a Macy's gift card, right?" Pick two sets of down jackets and give them to them, the winter on the island is very cold, especially if they have to work outside. ”
Qin Shiou kissed his daughter-in-law's pretty face, Winnie thought that things were careful, he didn't have this idea, he just wanted to taste what Cuban food tasted like.
At six o'clock, he drove to the dormitory arranged for the two of them in the town with the gift card, a small wooden building with two bedrooms and one living room, which has been around for many years, but the space is not small, and of course, the houses in the Canadian countryside are very wide.
After the two got out of the car, Kapalai, who heard the sound of the car and walked out of the door, went up to give each of them a ginger lily, and said happily: "Welcome, welcome to the two distinguished guests." ”
The lily is the national flower of Cuba, and the ginger lily is their favorite, which has a special meaning for them.
Winnie accepted with a smile, returned a gift card to Capalai, and said, "Thank you for the flowers, this is a small gift from us, not a tribute." ”
Kapalai excused himself, Qin Shiou said: "This is used to buy down jackets, the winter of Farewell Island is very cold, you buy warm clothes, shoes and hats, etc., to protect your health." ”
Winnie smiled, "Song can buy a hat, Mr. Bagjohagen will forget it, right?" ”
As soon as Winnie said this, Qin Shiou suddenly remembered that it seems that Cubans have a custom that taboo to wear hats, and they think that only when a loved one dies will they wear a hat to express their condolences.
Capale smiled happily: "Madame really has a heart, but I will focus on work, if it is too cold, I will wear a cotton hat, I can't delay work." ”
Qin Shiou felt that this man who looked full of rudeness did not look like this on the outside, he was at least very good at talking, and this sentence took care of his and Winnie's feelings respectively.
After entering the house, wine and some dishes were already prepared on the dining table, and in the center of the table was a vase with a bright bouquet of lilies, which looked very atmospheric.
Kapale invited the two of them to sit down and said, "Sir and Madame, wait a minute, I still have a few dishes to prepare." Well, first of all, our Cuban cuisine mainly has two kinds of classical cuisine and new cuisine, I am not good at classical cuisine, I am good at new cuisine, I don't know if you can eat habitually? ”
Qin Shiou smiled and said, "I think we must get used to it, because I smell the fragrance, it's very delicious." ”
Kapale was even happier, wiped the stool again and said, "Please take a seat, please sit down!" (To be continued......)
