Chapter 218 Getting through the Difficulties Together
For those who are destined, maybe a gentle greeting can resolve the grievances in her heart, Xuemei saw Liu Cheng's question at this time, her heart was full of mixed feelings, and the ten thousand reasons in her heart for not wanting to pay attention to him suddenly turned into nothing.
"Brother, I'm fine, how are you?" Xuemei couldn't help but reply.
"Well, business is quite busy now, only now can I settle down and rest, how is the situation of the left army? Have you found a job? ”
Seeing Liu Cheng's words, Xuemei thought that she would be exposed to the wind and sun at the open-air construction site tomorrow, and her heart suddenly felt uncomfortable, she replied gloomily: "Alas, I can't find a suitable job for the time being, I will go to the construction site tomorrow to do a small job!" ”
"What do you say? Do you really want to do that kind of work? You're a girl, that kind of work is not suitable for you to do, you must not force it to do, if there is difficulty, just tell me and Chunmei. ”
Xuemei's nose was sour, and she replied: "Any work is done by people, why can't I do it?" Don't underestimate people, I have no difficulty, I have to get up early tomorrow, don't talk, good night! ”
Xuemei didn't wait for Liu Cheng's reply, she went offline, she covered her face and stayed by the computer for a long time
The next day, Xuemei got up early in the morning to make breakfast for the left army, and she didn't have time to eat well, so she hurried to the construction site.
When the foreman saw that Xuemei was really coming, his eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Xuemei's skirt, and said with a smile: "Miss, can you work if you wear this?" ”
Xuemei looked at her clothes, then blushed and asked, "Do you have work clothes here?" ”
The foreman looked at Xuemei for a few moments, and then said, "I have a set of old clothes in my office. You go in and put it on! ”
Xuemei thanked her and walked into the office of the contractor, after she walked in. I immediately closed the door.
The contractor's office is actually a prefabricated house, where he both works and stays.
The foreman was a little distracted at this time, he also came to the door of his office, stretched out his hand to push the door, but felt inappropriate, so he immediately stopped.
After a while. Xuemei walked out in an old and large camouflage uniform.
Although Xuemei's dress did not fit, in the eyes of the contractor, Xuemei looked more and more heroic. He couldn't help but praise: "The girl is so beautiful, no matter what kind of clothes she wears, she can't hide her beautiful appearance." ”
Faced with the praise of the contractor, Xuemei was unmoved, she said indifferently: "Boss." Please arrange my work! ”
The foreman shouted, "Old cow." You come here. ”
A middle-aged man about forty years old walked over, the man was dark-skinned, holding a bricklayer tool in his hand, and he looked like a 'master'.
I only heard the foreman of the contractor pointing at Xuemei and saying to him: "In the future, this girl will be your little worker." ”
When that person saw Xuemei's beautiful face, he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, seeing that there was such a beautiful woman 'serving' himself to work, he couldn't believe it.
He looked at Xuemei for a long time before he smiled and said, "Sister." Come with me. ”
Xuemei didn't say anything and followed him silently.
This man is specialized in building bricks for walls. Xuemei was responsible for transporting the bricks from the surrounding stacks to him, and then pouring the mortar into the ash trough in front of him
Xuemei is no stranger to this line of work, and she has done it in an orderly manner.
That Niu master is because Xuemei is 'waiting', and she has to work hard, and the speed of using materials is also fast, Xuemei is a girl after all, and she has not been engaged in manual labor for a long time, so she has a little difficulty supplying it.
The Niu master saw that the bricks and mortar were not available, and he did not complain at all, he saw that Xuemei was sweating, so he handed her a bottle of water and said: "Sister, don't worry, you have to work leisurely, and rest when you are tired." ”
He asked Schercher to take the initiative to bring the bricks and mortar over
Even so, the bricklayers next to him still cast envious glances, and one of the 'masters' went to the contractor to discuss: "Boss Xu, can you 'assign' that beauty to me?" ”
The contractor frowned and said, "Lao Wang, what are you making trouble?" Aren't you without a small job? Hurry up and get to work! ”
The old king touched his nose and had to come back to work in a huff.
'Serving' him was a fat Shandong woman, she was twice as thick as Xuemei, and her strength was naturally much greater than Xuemei, she had already piled bricks where Lao Wang worked, and when she saw Lao Wang's unhappy look, she asked, "What did you say to the boss?" ”
Lao Wang glanced at her with his eyes, and then said angrily: "It's none of your business, don't ask around." ”
Although it has just arrived in the early summer season, the climate has been extremely hot, and the lunch break at the construction site has been extended.
Although she had tried her best to wash off the dust from the construction site, Zuo Jun saw that her complexion was still abnormal, so he asked, "Xuemei, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xuemei wondered, "I didn't have much!" ”
"Oh, look at your face is not the same as usual."
"Really? Maybe the sun is too 'poisonous' today, and the skin is sunburned. ”
"Well, hurry up and buy some sunscreen, although it's summer, it's good that you work indoors, and you don't experience much sunlight."
Hearing Zuo Jun's words, Xuemei was speechless, she silently walked into the kitchen to cook.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xuemei appeared on the construction site again, although she felt powerless, but still gritted her teeth and persisted, she knew in her heart that as long as she could persist in working for a few days, she could 'go through the fight'.
At the end of the evening, she changed her clothes again and asked the contractor for the day's wages.
The contractor handed her thirty yuan, and Xuemei took the money and held it in her hand, and was about to turn around and go out.
"Girl, please wait!" The foreman suddenly stopped her.
Xuemei stopped, turned around and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
"Don't you feel wronged by doing such rough work? Do you need money? ”
"Yes, my husband is very sick and he needs money for treatment."
"Oh, I see, but you don't have to do such a rough job! Do you want to do something a little easier? ”
Xuemei's expression was surprised for a moment, and then she wondered, "Is there one?" What does it look like? How much money to make? ”
The foreman smiled slyly: "As long as you dress up beautifully every day, provide a little 'small service' to the brothers on the construction site, and keep you to earn much more than this?" ”
"Oh, what the hell is a 'service'? Is it to help them sew and wash? ”
"Hehe, that's not for you, you just need to help the brothers do a little 'considerate' service, just by virtue of your posture and figure, it is an absolute resource, if it is wasted, wouldn't it be a pity, if you are willing to 'serve' for the brothers, you will get a lot of rewards for keeping."
Although Xuemei is a simple girl, she also understands the meaning of the contractor's words, her face is a little feverish, and she just wants to have a seizure, but she can't bear it.
Xuemei knew that she needed this job and couldn't offend the contractor, so she took a deep breath and said indifferently: "I want to earn money with my strength now, not 'body', you misread me, if you still need me to do small work, I will continue to do it tomorrow, if I think I do less, then I will go to find work elsewhere tomorrow." ”
From the two awe-inspiring lights in Xuemei's eyes and the tone that was neither humble nor arrogant, the foreman immediately judged that Xuemei was not 'that kind of woman', so he hurriedly said: "Sister, don't be angry, I'm joking, you must come tomorrow." ”
Xuemei was relieved to see that the foreman of the contractor had retracted such eyes, and she said calmly: "Goodbye!" ”
Seeing the back of Xuemei leaving, the contractor couldn't help but secretly say: There is such a beautiful woman appearing at the construction site, it is a beautiful scenery here, so what does she do?
After Xuemei went home, she found that her hands were blistered and broken, and when she washed the dishes, her palms hurt so much that she grinned, she lifted her palms, looked at the wounds, and couldn't help crying
But she quickly put away her tears, and tried her best to hide it in front of the left army, she knew that she was facing the situation in her family, and she had to grit her teeth and persevere, overcome all difficulties, and get through the difficulties with the left army (to be continued......
