093 I want you to give me a home
"Let's get married tomorrow, I can't wait."
"You're in such a hurry?" I snorted and teased while driving, "Let's take it slowly, I'm afraid that if I marry you, many women will commit suicide." ”
"Suicide, suicide, it's none of my business," he habitually took my hand and said more eagerly, "I checked the date, tomorrow happens to be the auspicious day of the zodiac to get the certificate, take the ID card and household registration book, and go to stamp the relationship between the two of us." ”
"Do you really know what it means to be 'married'? Don't feel freer now? ”
He squeezed my hand and looked out the window, his head bandaged, but his eyes were full of yearning, "Freedom? Since I left my mother, I have been 'free' for many years, and the so-called freedom is nothing but a wandering place for me, without a real 'home'. But since I met you, I've found a sense of rooting, as if, all of a sudden, life has suddenly opened up, and everything I've done has meaning......"
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at me, as if he was commanding, as if begging, "I want you to give me a 'home', so, marry me, Yuncan?" "The whole person is gentle and sincere like never before.
Such an affectionate confession touched my weakness at once and touched my heart. When was it, I was so eager for a real home, to end the days of displacement, and to find someone who knows the cold and the hot to be with me for a lifetime...... But since I have lost anything, I am also very disappointed in this so-called home, and I am still destined to continue to drift in this life...... Now, hearing similar words from Jiang Feng again, it is inevitable that he will feel a little sad.
"Be careful!" Jiang Feng suddenly shouted, and without waiting for me to react, he hurriedly rushed over and grabbed the steering wheel and turned to the right!
It turned out that I had just been distracted, and I was not paying attention while driving, and I almost hit a truck coming from the opposite side head-on. Fortunately, Jiang Feng reacted quickly and avoided a car accident. Hey, I don't know how I drive, I have palpitations when I think about it!
After the car was driving normally, he mentioned in my ear again, "Just said, give me an answer." ”
"Forget it, I'm going to drive seriously, don't talk about this yet." I didn't dare to get distracted anymore, so I kept my hands on the steering wheel and focused on the front and back.
"Then I'll do it, you have to give a reply now."
"Don't mess around," I glanced at him, "even if you really want to get married tomorrow, you don't look at your face, how can you take ID photos?" I'll talk about that later. ”
"......" He fell on the seat, pondered for a while, and said confidently, "Okay, hold off for a while, wait until I complete the acquisition of Danfeng, solve the fundamental problem, and give you a prosperous wedding, and tell the world that you Lu Yuncan is my Jiang Feng's woman!" He smiled at me with an imminent smile, "Are you ready to be my wife?" ”
"......" My heart gradually tightened, and my whole body became stiff, I didn't dare to look at him, and I couldn't give any response, but I just looked straight ahead, and my mind was in chaos...... I thought I could play this scene well, but I found that in his detailed offensive, I was about to be defeated if I was not careful.
At this time, he mentioned casually, "Do you know why I didn't sell the equity in my hand to He Yu, because I don't want him to have anything to do with you anymore." You can rest assured, once the acquisition of Danfeng is completed, I will not only return Yuncan's equity to you, but also give you at least half of Danfeng's equity at that time, provided that you have to be my wife! ”
I was not moved by his sweet words, on the contrary, I had a feeling of being coerced by him...... I can't forget the filthy purpose of this man approaching me in the first place, and the days of the walking dead I spent after his face was exposed~
Unconsciously, my heart, which had just been warmed by him, suddenly cooled again......
"Okay," I said with a smile at him, "then I'll wait for you, and after you successfully acquire Danfeng, we'll have a 'prosperous wedding'." "Speaking of which, I can clearly feel my heart beating hard.
When he listened to my words, his whole person seemed to settle down at once, and his eyes and eyebrows were full of joy and expectation, like an innocent child waiting for the gift promised by his parents. Then he didn't say anything, just gently squeezed my hand, and then propped himself up on the window, gentlely, earnestly watching me drive.
*
Jiang Feng's head injury is not healed, these days I am resting at home, I occasionally come to the company to deal with some documents, attend a few meetings and so on.
This morning, when I went to the bathroom and came out of it, I happened to meet a cleaning staff from the men's bathroom next to me, holding cleaning tools, dragging a large bag of garbage, hunched over, lame, and gray-haired...... I was sad and a little familiar with this figure.
Standing there and taking a closer look, I found that this person was Lao Hu who was involved in the arson incident some time ago!
"Old Hu!" I couldn't help but call him and asked him, "Aren't you in the production workshop, why are you doing cleaning work again?" ”
"Oh, it's Mr. Lu," Lao Hu saw me, his face was a little unnatural, but he still tried to stand up straight, and said with a smile, "This, because I am old, and I was derelict in guarding the warehouse last time, which caused the warehouse to catch fire, so Mr. Gu in the company asked me to change me to the cleaning position, responsible for the cleaning of all the men's toilets and the corridor area on each floor in the company." ”
Mr. Gu? Gu Minyi!
I didn't expect her to go against me in Lao Hu's affairs after all, knowing that I maintained this old employee, since I couldn't be fired, I arranged for him to do dirty, tiring and low-wage cleaning, and he was still dragging a lame leg, which was inconvenient to walk, and now he has to run up and down with a mop and broom every day to mop the floor and take out the garbage......
"You better go back to the workshop, I'll call the personnel department later, and ask them to reassign you." You see that you are old now, and your actions are so inconvenient, and you work hard to mop the floor every day, and everyone can't bear to step on it, right? ”
"Hehe," Lao Hu said with a smile, "Thank you Mr. Lu for your concern." Don't bother, as long as the company can give me a bite to eat, it doesn't matter what work you do, the cleaning is very good, you can walk around, not as boring as staying in the workshop, and there is time to rest. Don't look at me as a cripple, I've been used to it for so many years, I can run if I want to, I've done it on the construction site before, and I have a lot of strength. ”
Lao Hu then laughed at himself, "Also, I didn't feel my value in the workshop before, but now I clean the toilet, but I find that I am quite valuable, as long as I don't come to work for a day, everyone is very unaccustomed, isn't it?" ”
I was amused by Lao Hu's words, and I always felt that he was a very special person, who had no fear of being a senior manager of the company like me but did not lose respect, and his speech and demeanor were measured, and his temperament had a light and leisurely ...... Although his eyes are vicissitudes and his body is disabled, he takes care of himself relatively neatly, and even if he does the dirtiest work, he does not feel sloppy and greasy.
"Then you should be busy first, and you can report any difficulties to me." I don't think he's as pitiful as I thought, so I won't interfere anymore, after all, he's just a very inconspicuous old employee at the bottom of the company, no matter how much I pity him, no matter how 'special' he is, I can't get too close to him.
I turned around and walked a few steps, and Lao Hu called me from behind again, "Mr. Lu,"
"Anything else?"
"......" Lao Hu seemed to be a little excited when he looked at me, but after a short look, he regained his respectful expression, "I want to ask Mr. Lu, can you agree to my small request." ”
"Say it." I don't know what's wrong with me, I've always been cold and harsh to employees, and I'll be extra tolerant of this inconspicuous old man.
"I think I'll be responsible for cleaning your office every day from now on." He said.
I listened, a little stunned, "That's what you're asking for?" ”
"Hmm. May I? ”
"......" I couldn't understand his request for a while, and his strange, slightly excited expression, but I still nodded reluctantly, "Yes, this is whatever, you can just change it with the aunt who is in charge of cleaning my office, anyone can clean it." ”
"Thank you." He looked excited, and his face was full of gratitude that I couldn't understand.
In the next few days, I found that when I came to the office every day, the inside was already fresh and tidy, the floor, desktop, window sill, every corner was spotless, the green plants were also watered, the overall environment was much cleaner than the previous cleaning aunt, and I was in a good mood when I entered the office every day.
One day when I sat down in the office, I found that I had a post-it note on my desk, and there was a sentence on the post-it note: give yourself a smile, let the mood suddenly brighten, not be annoyed by yesterday, not confused by tomorrow, happy and content, quiet and far-reaching.
This kind of chicken soup language didn't resonate much with me, and what attracted me more was this handwriting. This passage is written with a black gel pen, and the handwriting is a clean, smooth and natural regular script, a particularly standard kind of regular script, just like the art of calligraphy, which is pleasing to the eye and has a very 'texture'.
I was wondering who posted this, when Lao Hu, who was cleaning, came in to fill the trash can in my office with garbage bags, and asked him if he had seen anyone who posted this post-it note?
Who would have thought that Lao Hu smiled faintly and said, "I wrote it." I don't think you usually smile much, as if you have something sad on your mind, so you wrote this sentence and put it on your desk. ”
"......," I was shocked again, in disbelief, "these words, really you wrote them?" ”
He nodded, "Yes, whatever you think about it, it doesn't have any connotation, Mr. Lu is well-informed and young, don't laugh at old-fashioned old people like us." ”
"No," I picked up the post-it note again, admired the sentences on one side, the beautiful handwriting, and then looked at Lao Hu, who was a cleaner in front of me, and had to look at him again, and asked him by the way, "Lao Hu, where are you from, and what did you do when you were young?" ”
"I," Lao Hu hesitated for a moment and confessed, "I am from S Province, and I served as a deputy county magistrate in my county when I was young...... Hehe, but that was more than 30 years ago, so don't mention it. ”
I thought I was listening to a joke and looked at him from head to toe, "You...... Ever been a county magistrate? Then why later-"
He sighed, "This is a long story, in short, I went to prison because of a woman at that time, and my career was ruined, and after I came out, my family was already ruined, and my wife was ......separated."
