Chapter 8: Discouragement
Sanbao sensibly made tea for the master, watching the green tea buds swirling in the water, the master leaned over to Sanbao with some mystery.
"Sambao, outsiders look at us here, they are very evil, they think that the people who do our business are not clean, the wives do not recognize their husbands, the sons do not recognize their fathers, and friends cut off contact...... We are just suspicious and unpopular, if you can enter this industry, can you stand it? ”
After Master Lu finished speaking, he picked up the cup, took a slight sip of tea, and hid his sharp eyes behind the hot air rising in the cup to observe the three treasures.
Sanbao thought for a moment and said, "Master, I have done a lot of work before, and I have made a living by enduring hardships and sins. I have seen a lot of people who live not like a life for a living, and people don't live like people, and they are unkempt when they die and live. In fact, I'm like that sometimes, and I don't get welcomed anywhere. But here, I feel like I'm being treated with respect and everyone is treated equally. You are all good people, you do what no one dares to do, but your hearts are clean and open. You let people go decently in the end, and take care of their grievances. No matter who it is, 369, etc., the common people are rich and noble, they have to come here in the end, there are always people to do in this business, I am not afraid of being disliked, nor am I afraid of any evil things, in this life, we just walk in the light. ”
Master Lu listened to Sanbao's words, silent, but his heart was a little surging, this young man looked ecstasy, but he had extraordinary courage and courage, Master Lu really wanted to pull him to the curator to sign the contract now, but he said to himself in his heart: Steady, old Lu, he is not your uncompetitive son, maybe it is a one-sided fate. Think about the apprentices before you, which one of them didn't all speak better than sing, and in the end, they all left. Take your time."
Master Lu settled down and asked carefully, "Have you ever seen a ghost?" ”
Sanbao was a little surprised in his heart, could it be that his secret was seen through by the master, it shouldn't be, how could it be possible when they first met, so he responded: "I haven't seen it, but I'm quite curious, I don't know what the ghost looks like." ”
"Hehe, tease you, remember! In our place, it is not allowed to scare colleagues, otherwise we will be fired directly, in the early years, there was such a thing, and one of my apprentices pinched the insurance without swishing, which scared us as a temporary worker...... Crazy......"
"I won't, master, don't worry, you've seen ......," Sambo asked cautiously.
Actually, I haven't seen it either...... However, it is important to remember at all times – respect the deceased, there are some things that are not clear and do not need to be clarified. ”
"Master, do you believe that people have souls when they die?" Sambo asked.
"I didn't believe it before I did it, I was a member of the Communist Party. But after doing it for a long time, I found that some things are not black and white, and there are always some unexplained phenomena...... Now, I believe that there is, people always have something to remember, either love, object, or soul...... If we want people to go without worry, we have to do a good job in this line of work, so as to be worthy of the last people who pass by here. ”
After that, Master Lu didn't make a sound anymore, he leaned back in the chair, his head slightly sideways, and closed his eyes to recuperate. Sanbao didn't bother the master again, he wanted to tell the master the fact that he was already an orphan, but he still couldn't help but say it, why bother, you have to dig out your heart when you see anyone, how lonely you are, Sanbao!
Sambo also comforted himself in his heart, not to mention that he could communicate with ghosts, not to mention that he could communicate with ghosts, not to do it outside, not to do it here, don't scare others. Thinking like this, San Bao casually picked up a book of human anatomy on the table and studied it.
The three-day time is coming soon, Sanbao has followed Master Lu to learn plastic surgery and makeup these days, almost an inch away, he did not dare to relax in his spare time, the notebook is full of essentials and technical requirements for plastic surgery and makeup, in order to better learn the knowledge of human body structure, Sanbao also borrowed many books related to human sculpture and anatomy from the master, and returned to the dormitory to study and read.
Sam Bao is extremely optimistic about this job opportunity, this may be the last opportunity to change his fate, outsiders here look terrible, but Sam Bao feels that this place is like the home that has long disappeared from memory, and he doesn't want to lose anything again...... Even if you can't pass the assessment, at least you have tried.
Do your best, Sambo.
Everyone watched Sanbao's performance, and everyone liked this humble and down-to-earth child, but the final decision was still in the hands of Director Wu. However, at noon on the third day, when Sanbao was still cleaning the workshop, Master Lu had already quarreled with Director Wu.
"I don't care how good you say, if it doesn't work, it just doesn't work." Curator Wu slammed his face against the wall, not giving face to his old classmates at all.
"This kid is a good seedling, and he is also down-to-earth, why can't you." Master Lu was so angry that his eyebrows were about to fly.
"Education...... He doesn't have any work experience, and his brother units are all graduates of the funeral major, at least a junior college, can you find a migrant worker? Director Wu said so, but he didn't think so in his heart, Sanbao's performance in his eyes, although his education is not high, but he is a good boy who is diligent and simple, and his education is just a disguise, Director Wu is talking about this this time, but he wants everyone to know who is the leader here. Even if you Lu Bingyi and I are old classmates, what can I do, I am also your leader, I have to kill the arrogance of you old things today, otherwise any of you will take me seriously.
Looking at Lao Lu's low and low, blowing his beard and glaring, Director Wu was very proud in his heart, he had not been so full of self-esteem and satisfaction for a long time. As for why Master Lu is in a hurry to get angry, it has nothing to do with him, I'm sorry, little brother Sanbao, you should be a sacrifice.
Master Lu was talking with a dry mouth, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the electrician Zhang looked at them in surprise: Lao Lu, Wu Suo...... Sambo is gone......"
When Master Lu and the others chased out the door, San Bao was walking in the gloomy pine forest path of Bawangling, and he still recalled the quarrel between the master and the curator that he had overheard before. At that moment, San Bao decided not to stay, the matter has come to this point, why stay here, swallow his anger and bow down, although he doesn't like that Director Wu, but his fate is still up to him to decide after all.
Sambo had already prepared his hands and packed his luggage the first night, but the good news he was expecting finally did not come. In order to avoid embarrassment, and by the way, to be quiet, San Bao did not leave from the main road in front of the funeral home, but chose the tree-lined path behind the dormitory, he knew that crossing this legendary haunted forest could go directly to the bus stop at the bottom of the mountain, and what he didn't know was that the driver Chen Gang, Master Lu and Director Wu were sitting in the car and chasing him along the main road. Director Wu's purpose has been achieved, in the car, Master Lu pleaded with him in front of the driver Chen Gang, which made him very satisfied, and his heart, which had been destroyed by these guys for many years, was finally filled with this vanity again.
Borrow the slope and get off the donkey, Wu Qingguo, he said to himself in his heart. After all, we still have to do things together in the future, and this old Jianghu doesn't want to be angry because of this matter. So he agreed that Sambo passed the trial work. Seeing Master Lu's excited and almost tearful eyes, Director Wu knew that this time, Lao Lu was completely burdened with this love debt, and the creditor was himself.
