Chapter 4 Looking at the Spring Cold
I think of the poem when I was sixteen years old - spring flowers bloom, blooming on the winter snow, my own passing years, flowing in the eyes of others.
- Cangcheng Cold Moon
Seeing that there were faint beads of sweat flashing on Foreman Hua's forehead, Lu Feng's face was a little hot, and he thought that she was hiding in the corner and resting secretly, and she was spending the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Although she is a bit nagging, she is indeed a good master who practices herself.
"You didn't graduate from high school long, right?" Foreman Hua looked at him and said.
"Well, I'm twenty-one years old." Lu Feng stood up straight, and the elevator that kept going down made him dizzy, probably because he hadn't gotten used to it at the beginning.
"It's a shame that you're so young and working here. Our job is to clean up the hotel, including every corner you can see. "Ah, it turns out that the scope of this job is so broad, it is simply a hotel scavenger. Lu Feng shrugged his shoulders and replied helplessly: "No way, I don't know what to do when I just graduated, so let's do it here for a while!"
"While you are young, why don't you learn some skills, like us who are almost thirty, with a family and children, we don't have any motivation and time to forge ahead, so we can only work here and earn a few dead wages." Foreman Hua was deeply touched.
Lu Feng didn't make a sound, and there was a faint pain in his heart. Seeing his depressed expression, the foreman over there changed the topic, "Okay, I'm almost done wiping it up, you go outside the lobby first to clean up the garbage and waste paper bags on the ground, and we can go to rest after we're done." ”
Outside the lobby, the air was cold, as if frozen in a refrigerator. Lu Feng picked up the bamboo broom on the side and swept it up heavily, as if he wanted to clear out all the depression in his heart. But the fluttering confetti was like a naughty child running around in the wind, playing with him.
Until he was a little tired, he stood quietly in the cold night leaning on the broom, looking up at the cold night sky, the floating moon was like smoke, and the faint clouds were like a roc with wings hanging high, flying above the nine heavens, and his thoughts also drifted.
I remember that early that morning, Lu Feng rode on the road of hope with great enthusiasm, and his heart was full of confidence. After staying at home for a few months, this time, after the discussion of the whole family, it was decided to learn a skill, and with the craft, there would be no need to wander around for a living in the future.
At that time, he encouraged himself not to be afraid of hardship, not to be afraid of tiredness, and that what others can do, he can also do, and to do better. There are so many people who care, how can they be disappointed. Lu Feng still has a wish in his heart, when he has money in the future, he can help those lonely and helpless poor children, so that they will no longer give up the ideal palace in their hearts because they have no money.
That time it was his uncle and Aunt Dan who took him to the place where the motorcycle was repaired. Lu Feng was busy with some unknown tools, but he was nervous in his heart, and he said to himself several times that he must stick to it and not give up. But the afternoon's hard work had left him with a sore back and exhaustion, and it was already very late when he got home.
After eating in a hurry, he fell asleep. Lying in bed, soreness hits me from time to time, and my mind is full of thoughts about whether to persist or give up. In the dream, I woke up several times, stared at the ceiling with both eyes, and fell asleep for a long time. I thought about it all night.
Early the next morning, Lu Feng came to Aunt Dan's house listlessly. He lowered his head and said he didn't want to do it. Aunt Dan smiled and comforted, it's okay, you were too tired yesterday, you have to rest well today. In this Yingying laughter, Lu Feng knew that there were many people who had paid endless hardships and hard work for him.
Thinking of this, Lu Feng was silent, what could he say, he had thought that he must learn more things, no matter how hard and tired he was, he was not afraid, but when he really did it, it was so difficult, which not only thought of his own vulnerability.
After working the night shift for two whole weeks, the taste of day and night reversal can make Lu Feng dizzy and lose his appetite. Today can finally go to the day shift, he breathed a long sigh of relief, came to the door of the studio on time at half past seven, and saw two people chatting, one was Foreman Shen, and the other was a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old man, tall and talkative.
"Lu Feng, this is Master Agang, you will work with him during the day, and now we have a new comrade." Foreman Shen patted Lu Feng's shoulder and introduced. He took out a workbook and arranged today's work, "The leader goes to work at eight o'clock, before that, you go to clean the passenger elevator, the carpet is a little dirty, you have to replace it with a new one, and then clean the dirty carpet."
"Lu Feng, then let's go to work!" Master Ah Gang greeted him kindly and walked towards the fire staircase. It turned out that every time the carpet was washed, it was dried here, Master Agang put away the two clean and thick carpets, and said to Lu Feng: "You press the switch of the hospiter elevator and let it stand still, this carpet is quite heavy, so I will be responsible for changing it." With that, he bent down, dragged the two corners of the carpet with both hands, and walked back to the passenger ladder step by step.
Lu Feng pressed the switch of the guest elevator, only to see Master Agang roll up the dirty carpet and drag it to the door of the workshop. Then people walked into the passenger ladder, put the new carpet flat, and used one foot to smooth the uneven corners, the clean and neat action made the passenger elevator look new, to see the proficiency of Master Agang must have been here for many days.
After finishing the two passenger elevators, Master Ah Gang returned to the lounge, took a sip of tea, and saw Lu Feng standing there, so he pointed to a small door very close and reminded: "Do you have a teacup, there is hot water in the pantry, you pour a cup of tea first, drink some when you are thirsty, and I will teach you how to wash the carpet later." ”
Lu Feng nodded, and after a while, Master Ah Gang stood up, took him to the door of the power distribution room, pointed to a machine like a large vacuum cleaner and said, "Lu Feng, this is called a water suction device, and when the carpet is washed, you need to use it to dry it, you push it to the door of the studio first." ”
Master Ah Gang pointed to another upright machine next to him and said, "This is a carpet machine, specially used to clean carpets, it is imported, and it is quite expensive." I'll push it, it's heavy. ”
In front of the studio, Master Ah Gang put the two dirty carpets together, not neatly, and then said to him, "You lower the carpet machine, and I'll install the chassis." ”
Lu Feng held the handle of the carpet machine tightly and slowly lowered it until he reached half his waist, and then Master Agang picked up a plate full of brushes, leaned down and followed the threads of the base, and heard a gurgling sound, and the installation was successfully completed.
Lu Feng put the blanket washing machine in place, and Master Ah Gang pointed to the sink on the machine and said, "Now we need to mix a bucket of potion, remember to use hot water as the main thing, so that the potion can be easily diffused." Then pour it in, plug it in and you're good to go. ”
After speaking, Master Agang picked up a red plastic bucket, turned around and walked to the pantry, first put a small half of cold water, and then put the bucket in front of the boiling water tap, and with a twist of the switch, the boiling water poured down, and the diffuse heat blindfolded Lu Feng's glasses.
After a while, Master Ah Gang carried a full bucket and put it in front of the carpet machine, lifted the bottle of potion with English characters written on it, poured a small half into the bucket according to a certain proportion, and then stirred the whole bucket of water and mixed it thoroughly.
