Chapter 111: A Babysitter from Hometown
The ad for Lego was simple, just running and shooting in front of a green backdrop. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The rest will be done by the people at the advertising agency using a computer.
These actions are too simple for Zhang Shu. It took him less than a morning to shoot the entire campaign.
"Was this for me? That's great! That's what I want! ”
When the advertising was filmed, Zhang Shu got the gift he wanted the most.
When he saw the staff of the Lego company put several huge cardboard boxes in front of him, Zhang Shu was excited.
"Tinty! Is this what you asked me for? He turned to Tindy and asked.
Tingdi now feels that Turio is not wrong at all, and Zhang Shu's mental age is really only 13 years old. He doesn't have the consciousness of being a star at all, and he is still happy for this kind of child's toy.
"In the future, if you want to contact them yourself, don't want me to help you make such a child's request." He shook his hand and tilted his head to the side, as if he had sat down on something very disrespectful.
With so many toys from Lego, one of Tindy's cars couldn't fit the huge cardboard boxes. So they had to ask the LEGO staff to help them transport the benefits in a pickup truck to Zhang Shu's home in Brescia.
Then they helped Zhang Shu move the boxes of toy blocks into a vacant room. It is conceivable that in the future, this room will be Zhang Shu's exclusive entertainment room.
"Zhang, I didn't say you, your house is too messy." Finally finished the work, Tinti, who was resting on the sofa, looked at the messy room and couldn't help but educate Zhang Shu again. The living room was littered with garbage and clutter, a few dirty coats were crumpled and thrown on the sofa, and there were still some unwashed plates on the dining table.
Zhang Shu could only laugh hehe, unable to explain. In fact, Zhang Shu usually cleans up the room, but the two times Tingdi came was the day after he just returned from the away game, and his occasional laziness was encountered by Tingti under the fatigue of the car.
"Forget it, I'd better go and find you a part-time job." Tinti didn't plan to listen to Zhang's explanation. Zhang Shu's performance on the court is surprising enough, if he doesn't have some small flaws in his life, he really has to wonder if Zhang Shu is a robot.
He reached for the phone and began to rummage through the phone number of Brescia's housekeeping company.
As an agent, it is not the first time to take care of the player's life, and these common service calls have long been stored in his mobile phone at any time.
Watching Tingdi call, Zhang Shu did not object. As a boy, tidying up the housework is indeed not something he likes to do, and if he can use money to solve these trivial chores in life, he is naturally willing.
"Zhang, I've already got in touch with you. Tomorrow at noon, the housekeeping company will send someone, and you can just wait at home then. Soon, Tindy hung up the phone.
"Ahhhh Viviano let out a cry of envy from the sidelines. Labor wages in Europe are very high, whether it is repairing water pipes and roofs or mowing lawn gardens, as long as it is a labor service job, the salary is generally calculated by the hour. Therefore, in foreign movies and TV series, it is often seen that people from middle-class families live in single-family houses and drive luxury cars, and they go out to travel when they have nothing to do, but they do everything by themselves to mow the lawn and repair pipes. It's not because of the joy of life, it's just that it's expensive to hire someone to serve you because the house and car are cheap.
Although Viviano also lives alone in a rented house, his meager youth team salary cannot afford to hire a part-time job to serve him.
"VVI! That's the price you paid for refusing to share a room with me in the first place! Otherwise you can enjoy the good life with me without having to do housework! Hahaha~~" Looking at Viviano's undisguised envy, Zhang Shu let out a villainous laugh.
"Zhang, don't you have an empty room here? I don't mind! Faced with such temptation, Viviano gave up his dignity without restraint.
"Hmph~ Aren't you going to take your sister home? It's not convenient for the two of us to share a room. Zhang Shu leaned back on the sofa, looking happy to get revenge. I can finally take revenge for the one arrow that was rejected by Viviano at the beginning, and this feeling is refreshing.
But he underestimated Viviano's shamelessness.
Faced with the question he raised, Viviano thought for a while and quickly came up with a solution. "It's okay, I usually live here with you, and you can go to live with me when you want to take my sister home! I have my treasures on my bedside table~ I've been collecting since I came to Brescia! It's cheaper for you. ”
"Get out!" Zhang Shu rejected Viviano without hesitation.
After helping Zhang Shu contact the housekeeping company, Tingdi left quickly. There were only three young men left in the room.
"Zhang, I've watched all your recent games. You're getting better and better. Turio said admiringly.
"Where, where, there have been awards... Zhang Shu is very modest, but this is Chinese modesty, which is actually a kind of show-off. Usually when something like this is said, the actual subtext is, "If there is anything else I can praise, please say it clearly." Say more, you're welcome. ”
The simple-minded Turio really followed Zhang Shu's meaning. "Zhang, it's not me who said it, the newspapers say so. Milan Sport newspaper said that yesterday it was all about running at your strength, and we couldn't see that there was no one missing on the pitch. And then there's the Brescia daily newspaper, who raved about your goal yesterday. The official website also says that you will become the flag of Brescia in the future. ”
Turio's remark made Zhang Shu smile when he heard it, who doesn't like to listen to other people's praise of himself, not to mention that he did a really good job yesterday.
"I've won all the games with you, and you're now the most popular player in the hearts of the fans besides Baggio." Viviano also praised Zhang Shu on the sidelines, but his next sentence turned back to Zhang Shu's familiar style. "So if you have a female fan who leaves you contact information, remember that you have a loyal friend who is willing to share the pressure for you."
"Don't worry! I'll help you keep an eye out for older aunts over 30. Zhang Shu unceremoniously cut off Viviano's thoughts.
At noon the next day, Zhang Shu returned to his home early after lunch after training. In fact, in normal times, Zhang Shu usually chooses to rest in the training base, and the club still keeps the previous dormitory for him. But today he has to wait for someone from the housekeeping company to come to the door.
Zhang Shu kept thinking in his heart, what kind of person would he be to serve himself? Will there be a blonde cute girl in a maid costume like in some films? Or it's okay to be a black long straight royal sister.
He had been alone for so long, and now that a stranger had finally intervened in his life, it filled his heart with a glimmer of anticipation.
"Tuk tuk" Soon, there was a knock at the door.
Whether it's a cute sister or a royal sister, the mystery is about to be revealed. Zhang Shu ran to the door in three steps and two steps, suppressed his anticipation, and slammed the door open.
A Chinese aunt in her 40s stood at the door.
"Zhang Xiansen, wow, I'll help you clean up Wei Senle." A familiar SC Mandarin came to his face, almost giving Zhang Shu the illusion that he was still in China.
Damn, this is completely different from what I imagined!! Zhang Shu cried out in his heart.
Ignoring Zhang Shu who was petrified at the door, the aunt walked into the room by herself. "Zhang Xiansen, you are too late. Fourth, someone must help you search a house. She looked at the messy living room and made this comment from her own acquainted acquaintance.
"Wait a minute, Auntie, can you say something sc's talk? I understand. Zhang Shu hurriedly used SC to stop the aunt's salt-and-pepper Mandarin. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of heaven and earth, you are afraid that SC people will speak Mandarin. Zhang Shu has been in Italy for a few months, and he feels that he is a little unaccustomed to speaking Mandarin, and if he continues to communicate with his aunt like this, he is afraid that when he returns to China, Mandarin will be led to a fork in the road.
"Oh, it turns out that you're also a sc person, so you said it earlier, fellow." The aunt changed back to SC and said to Zhang Shu. Hearing the familiar local accent, Zhang Shu felt that she was more enthusiastic.
suddenly met a compatriot in Italy, or a fellow countryman, which made Zhang Shu forget the image of the maid he had fantasized about before. Now he is full of curiosity about Auntie.
"Auntie, why did you come to Italy as a nanny as a Chinese? And did you know that I was Chinese before? ”
"I don't know, we Chinese work as nannies in Italy, and the foreigner who called our company before didn't specify to find a Chinese."
Zhang Shu could only sigh, but he didn't expect Tingdi to think about it really carefully. The living habits of Chinese and Italians are very different, and hiring a Chinese housekeeper can make you more accustomed to it.
The aunt began to clean up the room with her hands and feet, and chatted with Zhang Shu at the same time.
"My surname is Han, and the baby came here to study, so I accompanied him. Usually when she is in class, I am idle anyway, so I come out to find something to do. I don't speak Italian well, so I usually have to go to Chinese homes to do it. But you said that the salary in Italy is high, and I can earn my baby's tuition and living expenses even if I work. Aunt Han threw a few pieces of clothes into the washing machine and pressed the button. Then move on to turning around and doing something else.
"Oh, Aunt Han, you're still working hard." Zhang Shu leaned on the side of the stairs and said.
"It's not hard, it's just that you're used to being busy in China, Xiao Zhang, are you also here to study?"
Aunt Han began to care about Zhang Shu, in his eyes, the young Zhang Shu should be the same age as her children to go to school.
But Zhang Shu denied it, "No, I work here." ”
"You came out to work at such a young age? What do you do? Aunt Han glanced at him curiously.
This question was asked to Zhang Shu's heart, and he decided to pretend to be a force.
"Helping people to work, mainly engaged in manual labor."
He replied modestly, just waiting for Aunt Han to continue to ask, and he would be able to proudly say his profession.
However, Aunt Han did not play according to his routine. She sighed slightly, as if she was full of sympathy for Zhang Shu who came out to work at such a young age.
"Alas~~ Xiao Zhang, you are still hard." What a poor child, Aunt Han thought in her heart.
"By the way~~~ Aunt Han, do you know how to cook?" Seeing that the aunt quickly tidied up the room in an orderly manner, Zhang Shu suddenly asked.
I've been in Italy for so long and haven't eaten a single Chinese meal, and although Italian food is much better than the dark cuisine of the UK, I still miss the food of my hometown after eating it for a long time.
"Why can't you cook!" Aunt Han said without looking back. "It's not those little girls, how can anyone at our age not cook. It's not that I said, the Italians eat all kinds of rice, except for noodles and pizza, there is nothing else. You young people like these Western things, and we can't get used to eating them. ”
"That's good, Aunt Han, how about you help me clean up the house every day and help me cook by the way?"
Anyway, part-time jobs are calculated by time, and Zhang Shu plans to directly package his life to Aunt Han.
"No problem! Tell me what you want to eat, and I'll get it for you. Aunt Han agreed.
"That's fine! I want to have some SC food in the evening! Zhang Shu regained his vitality, and he reported all the names of the dishes that lingered in his mind.
"Mapo tofu, back to the pot meat, fried potatoes with green peppers, diced kung pao chicken, shredded fish-flavored pork...
"By the way, don't use pork, make all beef." Zhang Shu emphasized. "Maybe I have a few friends who will come to dinner in the evening."
Aunt Han nodded, found a pen and wrote down Zhang Shu's request.
Zhang Shu and Aunt Han quickly signed a housekeeping service agreement. Like the housing contract, domestic service in Italy also requires a formal contract filing. Zhang Shu needs to pay various taxes to the Italian government in addition to Aunt Han's labor fees, and the tax rate for working hours of more than 24 hours per week is extremely high. There is also a contract filing fee of €0.03 per hour.
It can also be seen from this that it is not unreasonable that Viviano cannot afford to hire part-time workers.
After signing the contract and handing over the spare key to Aunt Han, Zhang Shu was ready to go out for the afternoon training.
Before going out, he seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Aunt Han, don't you really know me?" He asked.
"I know, you're Xiao Zhang." Aunt Han replied with a serious face.
"Ahh Yes... That's right. Zhang Shu said goodbye to Aunt Han with a frustrated face and embarked on the road to the club.
It turns out that even for Chinese, Zhang Shu is still a huge distance from being known to everyone.
