Three days later............

Yu Yang and Alice have been looking for work on the street for three days, and this is the third day, and the two have lost the confidence to look for work. At present, she is just walking around the street with a fluke mentality, and Alice said: "Yu Yang, what do you say we are suitable for?" You can't just wander around every day, right? ”

Yu Yang nodded and said: "The current situation is not up to us, just take a look, I believe it should be almost there, I have a strong premonition." Alice smiled helplessly at him and said, "You have said this since the first day, and you still do it today." ”

"That's not nonsense, look there, isn't there recruitment?" Yu Yang pointed to a restaurant in front of him, where there was a sign that said Recruitment. And there are still two of them, and Yu Yang sees hope.

Alice stopped, and said reluctantly, "You don't want to be a waitress in a restaurant, do you?" ”

Yu Yang shook his head helplessly and said, "Do we still have a choice?" Since it has been abandoned by the bar, everything is done, the important thing is to make money, isn't it? You're not just going to be able to go to Houston with the old man, to go to the Russian city to watch the game. Let's go, let's go in and ask! With that, Yu Yang dragged Alice and walked in.

The owner of the restaurant was a man in his 40s, black, fat, and looked like a chef. After seeing Yu Yang and Alice coming in, he hurriedly said respectfully, "Welcome, may I ask you two to eat?" ”

Alice whispered helplessly: "Damn Yu Yang, I said that this job is not suitable for us, you see that those dirty things need to be cleaned up." ”

Yu Yang ignored her, he nodded at the black boss and said, "Boss, the two of us are here to apply, can you take a look?" ”

The black boss looked the two of them up and down, and then said with a smile: "It turned out that I was hired, but now there are quite few young people doing this." No problem, then the two of you, $60 to $100 a day, how about you guys? If you can, start working today. ”

This salary is about the same as the last time Yu Yang worked in a bar, of course, it still can't be compared with Alice's. Alice didn't like the job very much, but looking at Yu Yang's appearance, she agreed. So the two of them found a "job", and in this way they started a new beginning.

Yu Yang felt very satisfied with this job, but Alice was not satisfied from beginning to end. Not only did she complain to Yu Yang every day, but sometimes she deliberately sat and watched Yu Yang do it, but fortunately, Yu Yang was already familiar with this grumpy Alice, otherwise he would really explode. For someone like Alice, who is used to doing easy work, she is certainly not used to doing this kind of work that she thinks is "low". But for Yu Yang, he has no choice.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and Yu Yang and they have been working in this place for a month. Today is a rare opportunity, because December 25 is the most important holiday in the United States, Christmas. On the 24th, there will be a holiday, not only Yuyang them, but all companies will have a holiday, so that employees can go home for Christmas, and on the 24th, it will be Christmas Eve, and everyone will spend tonight peacefully.

The United States has entered the cold season, and Yu Yang has already put on a big cotton jacket. Alice is the same, the big padded jacket is uncomfortable on her body, but none of them can do anything, who let the damn winter come?

On the evening of the 24th, there were three people in this black man's house today, Yu Yang, Alice and the old man. The three of them sat at the table facing a table of rich dishes, and the old man drank two glasses of wine to warm his body. This is the first time that there are three people in their family to spend Christmas together, in previous years, Alice and the old man kept this quiet room for Christmas, but this year there is one more person, and their mood and atmosphere are much better.

Alice said, "Yu Yang, do you know the origin of our American Christmas? I'm guessing you don't know? ”

Yu Yang nodded and said, "Don't say it, I really don't know how I got here." ”

"Hehe, since you've spent Christmas with us, let's listen to the old man tell you about the origin of the Christmas knot! Old man, it's time for you to perform, don't worry about drinking. Alice said.

The old man stopped drinking, and Yu Yang also looked at the old man expectantly.

After half a ring, the old man sighed and said, "Actually, this has to tell the story of the birth of Jesus Christ." When Mary (the mother of Jesus) was young, she received a message from the angel Gabriel that she was conceived by the Holy Spirit.

At that time, the Roman Emperor Augustus had decreed that all the people of the world should be counted in their cities, so she and her husband Joseph left the city of Nazareth in Galilee and rushed to Judea, which was the first time that Curie had signed up for the book after becoming the governor of Syria.

On the way, they passed through the city of Bethlehem, where Joseph's ancestor David lived, and because there were no more rooms in the village inn in Bethlehem, they had to stay outside the hostel, where Mary gave birth to Jesus in a stable, where the "stable" varies according to the Bible version, but is usually a feeding trough or a corral.

Christ was born in Bethlehem, the home of Joseph's ancestor King David, thus fulfilling Israel's prophecy. Later, Jesus' family fled to Egypt to escape the enraged King Herod the Great, who had heard that a new Jewish king had been born in Bethlehem.

When King Herod died and a new King of Judea succeeded him, he did not know Jesus and his parents, so there was no threat to Jesus' life, so Jesus and his family returned to Israel, and they settled in Nazareth. Christians believe that Jesus is 100 percent human and 100 percent God, and some other religions believe that Jesus is a prophet of God or a great teacher.

In order to commemorate the birth of Jesus, the descendants designated December 25 as Christmas, and celebrated Mass every year to commemorate the birth of Jesus.

Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus on December 25, but no one knows the actual birth. In the 19th century, with the popularity of Christmas cards and the emergence of Santa Claus, Christmas also became popular. That's probably where Christmas comes from. The old man said slowly, and Yu Yang nodded as if he had listened to a fairy tale.

The old man continued, "By the way, children, you will be lucky to receive a gift from Santa Claus tonight!" Be careful to be prepared to receive gifts. ”

Alice stretched out her hand and touched Yu Yang and said, "Yes, I receive what I like every year, but I don't know if it's from the old man." I think he sent it right, tell the old man what you like, I think he will help you. Hey! ”
