Walking back from Ewhwawu Park, you can see several of the company's dormitory buildings in the distance, but Kim Jung-ho's family does not live in tall dormitory buildings, but in low, damp bungalows in the last row of dormitory buildings. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is said that it is a bungalow, and it is really a bit of a lift. This is still a product left over from the construction company when it built a staff dormitory building. Because there were many monks and few porridges, and the houses built by the company were not enough, those who did not get the houses asked the company leaders to take out the temporary sheds built by the construction company and divide them. Kim Jung-ho was a rural household registration at the time, and he had not yet become a regular worker in the company, so he did not have the conditions to divide the house, and a small bungalow became his shelter after commuting.

People go to high places. Later, Kim Jung-ho wanted to get his children from the countryside to go to school in the city, and it happened that the person next door bought a new house and moved away, so Kim Jung-ho spent a few small sums of money to invite that person to drink, and took the opportunity to occupy another room, and with two bungalows, Kim Jung-ho simply took all his family members over to live.

The quality of the bungalow was very poor, and when I first moved in, there was still air leaking everywhere, and the leaders of the company in charge of the infrastructure couldn't stand it, so they spent money to find someone to paint it again with cement. The wind is not leaking, but the living environment has not improved much. Because the house is surrounded by monochrome walls and is located at the back of the dormitory building, the sun is not exposed to the sun when it should be, and the sun is hot overhead when it should not be, so the house is as cold as an ice cave in winter and like a steamer in summer. This is also the reason why on summer nights, Kim Jung-ho likes to hang out and refuses to go home.

Kim Jung-ho took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening. Walking into the staff dormitory compound, he saw that the lights in his window were still on, and knew that his wife was still watching TV and waiting for him. As soon as he pushed open the creaky door, the woman complained to him, "Why did you come back so late?" Get the money and wait for the grocery shopping tomorrow morning! As she spoke, she habitually stretched out her right hand to Kim Jung-ho.

"You know all day long that you want money, so can't you say anything else?" Kim Jung-ho sat on the bed, wrapped his arms around the woman's waist, and said with a smiling face.

The woman twisted her waist, got rid of Kim Jung-ho's outstretched hand, and said, "Who told my life to be so good, and I put on you, a wishful man!" If you had money, I would be ashamed to mention it to you! If you earn your life to buy a house, you just bundle the money in your pocket, and you want to sew up the whole family's mouth and not eat it. ”

"Look at what you said of me!" Listening to the woman's complaints, Kim Jung-ho was not annoyed, he said with a dry smile.

"Isn't it? Other women live in high-rise buildings, and I squeeze in this broken pigsty with you every day; Other women rub dozens or hundreds of cosmetics, and I can't even afford a cheap Vaseline, this is the good life I have lived since I married you! The woman rolled her eyes at Kim Jung-ho and said in disgust.

"Wife, didn't we just buy a house! The sun is always after the wind and rain, you have to believe me, the difficulties are temporary, the days will slowly get better, everything must look forward! The woman was telling the truth, Kim Jung-ho had nothing to refute, he said comfortingly.

"Look ahead! Look forward! I'm going to look at the money now. Give me the money so that I can wake you up from your dream early tomorrow morning. "The woman doesn't actually want to be angry with Kim Jung-ho, she just vents on her lips and feels more comfortable.

"I don't have any money on me today." Kim Jung-ho said.

"No money? Banks closed? "When the woman heard that there was no money, she was anxious.

"The banks are not closed,"

"Did you meet a fitter?"

"I didn't meet a fitter either."

"And what about the money you withdrew from the bank today?"

"I donated the money tonight."

"Donate it! Fifteen hundred, you gave it away? Your melons aren't bad, are they? As the woman spoke, she stretched out her hand to knock Kim Jung-ho's head.

"My melons are good!" Kim Jung-ho grabbed the woman's outstretched hand, grabbed the woman's waist and said, "Wife, guess who I met today?" ”

"Have you met a nobleman?" Looking at the man's excited expression, she asked rhetorically in a teasing tone.

"It's true that I've met a nobleman!"

"I'd like to hear who it is!"

"It's Sister Hu!"

"Who is Sister Hu?" As soon as he heard that it was a woman, Kim Jung-ho's wife's willow eyebrows stood upside down.

"Don't get excited! Sister Hu is the wife of General Manager Chen of our Jiaxin Company, an old woman who is nearly 60 years old. ”

"What's wrong with her?" Hearing that it was General Manager Chen's wife, the woman's face immediately turned 180 degrees.

"I went for a walk in Lihuawu Park tonight and found Sister Hu playing in the square with her grandson. You said that when I met General Manager Chen's grandson for the first time, should I say something? ”

"So you donated all of this month's living expenses as a meeting gift?"

"yes, yes! You see that I have been mixed up in Schwab for so many years, and I have not been able to climb up, I have thought about it, and the main reason is that there is no gift. As for me, my family is poor for the time being, and I don't have a lot of money to give, so if I say that I should spend a little money so shrunkly, wouldn't it be the day when I will never come out? ”

"With so little money, can you have a bright future?"

"Not necessarily. I just hope that General Manager Chen can have a thought in his heart and occasionally think of me when he hires people in the company. ”

"You gave all the money as gifts, how to solve the problem of eating and drinking for the whole family this month?" Thinking that there will be no money to buy groceries tomorrow, the woman's face is worried.

"That's what I want to talk to you about!"

"Talk to me? What can I do? ”

"I've thought about it in the park, you can go back to your hometown early tomorrow morning, talk to your father-in-law, and see if you can come back with a bag of rice on credit to eat."

You can say that! I haven't seen you take out a child for them in three festivals a year, and you have to reach out to them to beg for food, I won't go! ”

"Aren't we in trouble! When life is better in the future, I will repay the second elder doubly. Kim Jung-ho said with a shy face.

"It's not enough to have rice to eat! My son is growing up, how can he do it without meat? The woman asked again.

"Or ...... Just take a look...... By the way, borrow some money from the second elder? ”

"I'm going to borrow you! My parents are in their 70s, and they are still shaving food in the fields, and we don't have money to subsidize them every month, so we have to rub their oil. This is borrowing rice and borrowing money, and with the temperament of your iron rooster, I'm embarrassed to open that mouth! ”

"Oops! You're embarrassed to open your mouth as a daughter-in-law, and I'm even more embarrassed to open my mouth as a son-in-law. Wife, please do well, you can watch me starve, can you bear to watch your son starve too? ”

"If you have such a mouth, you will talk about your son!" At the mention of her son, the woman smiled, and his son had always been the pride of her heart. She stretched out her hand and poked Kim Jung-ho's head, and continued: "It is said that women are little rakes, and they don't forget to calculate their mother's family when they get married, you are instigating me to learn badly!" ”

"That's why I said! In this world, my wife is always the best! ”

"Don't be a sycophant! Alas, when I think of stripping the old, why do I think of Fan Jin's wife in "The Outer History of Confucianism"? ”

"Fan Jin's wife?"

"That's right! Fan Jin is the one who went crazy after winning the lift! ”

"Oh! I remember, your analogy is interesting! Hi! I have Fan Jin's thoughts, but I don't know if there is Fan Jin's life? ”

"Alright, go to sleep! I'll just go home early tomorrow morning. The woman scolded and prepared to go to bed.

"Don't sleep, don't sleep! Wife, what else do I want to ask you for? ”

"You beg me? The sun didn't come out of the west, did it? Say, what do you command? ”

"Where do I dare to tell you, I really have something to ask you." Kim Jung-ho's face was sincere.

"I'm sleepy, if you have something to say, just say it, don't spit out." The woman said.

"Tonight in Lihuawu Park, didn't I meet Sister Hu?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

"Sister Hu's grandson is still young, only his birthday, and his physique is poor, and he often gets sick, which is the time when he needs someone to take him. Sister Hu told me that she is getting older, and it is a little difficult to take care of her grandson, and she has found several nannies, but none of them are satisfied, and she is worried about this matter recently! When I heard this, I was intrigued, thinking that this was a good opportunity to perform, so I volunteered to help her find one! ”

"That's a good thing! If you can help her find it, you can help her find it, but what does this have to do with me? ”

"It makes so much of a connection! After Sister Hu left, I was alone in the park thinking ah! Think! Thinking of this Sister Hu, a person who likes to watch mahjong so much, is now entangled by her grandson, and can't touch the edge of mahjong, how painful it should be in her heart! I thought I had to find a good babysitter for her. Originally, I was planning to take a day off tomorrow and go to my hometown to run for her to see if anyone in the village was willing to come out to be a nanny. On second thought, no! Even if I find a good nanny for her, the credit for bringing the child well in the future is also the nanny, I just played the role of a recommendation, in this case, Sister Hu will soon forget about me. So, I thought...... I just thought ......"

"What are you looking at me for? You don't want me to be someone's babysitter, do you? ”

"Those who know my heart, my wife too." Kim Jung-ho came crepe, he kissed the woman's face, and then said: "My wife is still smart and knows my mind best." I think so, what about you, you work in a private towel factory, sometimes the factory has orders, sometimes there are no orders, and the work is very irregular; Besides, you usually think that the noise of the loom is too loud, and your ears are almost deaf, and you can't get a few dollars a month. I just thought, you just quit your job and take care of General Manager Chen's grandson single-mindedly, and General Manager Chen's grandson will be a great achievement for General Manager Chen and Sister Hu. Maybe I will have the opportunity to be promoted, if I can get a deputy or a full-time job in Jiaxin, I will easily get back the little salary you lost. ”

"Listen to your tone, shouldn't it be for me to do voluntary labor?"

"That's right! Bringing a grandson for General Manager Chen, we can't ask for money. If you take money, it is a labor-management relationship, and General Manager Chen and his wife will think that you should help them take care of their grandchildren. I have already thought about it, if they give us money, we must not ask for it, and power is an emotional investment. Wife, you must know that in Jiaxin, it is difficult to get a deputy or a full-time job! You can't get it from 50,000 to 100,000 yuan less. We don't want their salaries, General Manager Chen will have a number in his heart, this debt is much stronger than gifts! ”

"You've got a good game! But have you ever thought about it, who will take care of your old lady who is paralyzed in bed and can't take care of herself? How do you solve your school-going son's lunch? The woman poured cold water on Kim Jung-ho on the head.

"You don't have to worry about that! The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and I believe I will be able to handle it. Kim Jung-ho patted the woman's shoulder and said to her in an expectant tone, "I'm worried about you!" If you can coax General Manager Chen's grandson well, my future will be hopeful. ”

"I'm really convinced! In order to be a broken official, your wife, children, and mother can give up all of them. The woman glanced at him, and continued to ask in a suspicious tone: "In the past, the two of us went to work, and the salary was barely enough to make ends meet, but now I quit my job, and I don't earn money to take care of people and children, and I rely on your salary alone to support the family, can I do it?" ”

"No, that's it! Next month, I thought about stopping the child's milk first, and saving other places, and then saving another one, and the difficulties can always be overcome. ”

"Do you have to be a babysitter?" The woman's tone was a little reluctant.

"I want you to go!" Kim Jung-ho's eyes were full of begging.

"I think you're just being poor!" The woman collapsed on the bed and ignored him.

"Hey, hey, hey! For the sake of our happy tomorrow, it is still necessary to sacrifice some personal things. Kim Jung-ho knew that the woman agreed, so he pulled a bath towel on the woman's stomach and said a sentence.

......

When he got up in the morning, Kim Jung-ho really didn't go to work. He called the head of the Party and Mass Department at home and lied that he was going to prepare a draft at home and that he would not be able to go to work at the company today. After the minister answered the phone, he didn't say anything, thinking that Kim Jung-ho was trying to be quiet, and since it was for work, he readily agreed. In the morning, Kim Zhenghao was aggrieved at home for a long time, and after lunch, he rode to General Manager Chen's house. Along the way, he rode very fast, deliberately detouring more than ten miles, and when he rode to General Manager Chen's house, he was already so tired that he couldn't breathe.

General Manager Chen has not come back in the company, and it was Sister Hu who opened the door. Sister Hu saw that his head and face were covered with sweat, thinking that he was tired of his own affairs, so she hurriedly let him into the living room, took out a bottle of coconut water from the refrigerator and handed it to him.

Jin Zhenghao waved his hand at Sister Hu, did not take the coconut water she handed over, and said to Sister Hu apologetically: "Sister Hu, I really can't stand you!" Today I went to the countryside on a special trip, and I inquired about it for you from door to door, it is really unfortunate, most of the capable women in the village have gone out to work, and I have also seen the women who stayed at home, and none of them liked. I think that when the Chinese New Year comes, the women who went out to work should come back, and I will help you run again when the time comes. ”

"There's no hurry! No hurry! Seeing the tiredness on Kim Jung-ho's face, although Sister Hu's face was a little disappointed, she still said to Kim Jung-ho gratefully: "Xiao Jin, you are tired this time. ”

"Being able to serve you and General Manager Chen is worth it. It's just a pity that I can't help you with this. Kim Jung-ho replied as if he were loyal.

"Out of the way! Out of the way! Look for it slowly in the future, a good nanny will definitely be able to find it. Sister Hu's words didn't know whether she was comforting Kim Jung-ho or herself.

"Sister Hu, although I didn't find a nanny this time, since I know that your family has such a small need, I can't sit idly by. When I got home last night, I tossed and turned in bed all night, so to speak, I couldn't sleep at night, and I really wanted to be able to help you do something. Today on the way back from my hometown, I thought about it, if you don't mind, I can let my lover come over first and help you bring your grandson for a while, how about it? ”

"Your love?"

"That's right! My lover. ”

"Doesn't she go to work?"

"She's at work. But compared to helping you take care of your grandchildren, it doesn't matter if she doesn't go to that class. ”

"Little Kim, you're really good at talking! Is it appropriate to ask your lover to help me bring my grandchildren? ”

"It's a good fit! Sister Hu, you don't know my lover, she can do things carefully. My son's physique was not good when he was a child, and she brought up two needles in three days, both with one hand and one foot, and now my son, I tell you, is like a calf. As he spoke, Kim Jung-ho bent his arms, revealing his strong biceps, as if he was not talking about his son, but himself.

"Hearing you say that, I really hope that your lover can come and help me take care of my grandchildren!" Sister Hu was moved by what he said.

"Then I'll let her come tomorrow. As I said, I can help you and General Manager Chen solve problems, but it is a blessing for our whole family! ”

Early the next morning, Kim Jung-ho sent his woman to General Manager Chen's house early. Before leaving, he repeatedly stopped the woman who was about to push the cart away, asked her to pay attention to this and that, and told her not to go home often even though she was very close to home, so as not to let General Manager Chen and his wife speak.

The woman was annoyed by his chatter, so she simply set up the car, turned around and taught him a lesson: "You still won't let people go?" Isn't it just to help you General Manager Chen take care of his grandson, and not to serve the emperor! You are such a mother-in-law, don't you feel tired? ”

When the woman said this, Kim Jung-ho also consciously talked a lot, he was afraid that if the woman was provoked, she would pick on her and not go, so she hurriedly followed the woman's words with a smile and said: "I'm not in a hurry!" Although you are not serving the emperor, in my heart, it is more important than serving the emperor! ”

The woman gave him a blank look and said, "When will you be able to use this kind of care to serve your paralyzed old lady." To an outsider, you are so attentive! ”

"This one is different." Kim Jung-ho said with a dry smile.

"What's the difference?" The woman asked rhetorically.

"One can reap fame and fortune, and the other is purely useless." Kim Jung-ho replied.

"You're an official fan!" When the woman had finished speaking, she ignored him, got into the car and rode away in a huff.

Kim Jung-ho's woman is indeed a woman who takes a shot, as Kim Jung-ho said. Not only is she diligent, but she also has a honeypot-like mouth. When she saw Sister Hu, she was more cordial than her own mother; Seeing Sister Hu's grandson, I was even more overjoyed. Every day, before General Manager Chen's family got up, she was busy with laundry, cooking, and grocery shopping, and waited for General Manager Chen to go to work, and waited for Sister Hu to go to the mahjong table, and she pushed General Manager Chen's grandson out to bask in the sun. In the morning, when time was in a hurry, she pushed the child around the community; In the afternoons, she can also push her children for a ride in the park, with the aim of exposing them to the outside world as much as possible and breathing in the fresh air of nature.

Kim Jung-ho's woman is very good at taking care of children. General Manager Chen's grandson has reached the age of toddler, and every day she can be seen bending over and working tirelessly to learn to walk with her child, and when the child is tired of walking, she puts the child in the car and stops under the shade to tell the child a story. There are many stories in her belly, all kinds of fairy tales in ancient and modern times, Chinese and foreign, these stories are all from books when she told them to her children in her early years. She has a very good memory, she can tell different stories to the little guy every day, General Manager Chen's grandson can be fascinated by it, not enough to listen to during the day, and listen to it when he goes to bed at night, less than a week, the little guy is cleaned up by her, and he must lie in her arms to sleep at night.

With Kim Jung-ho's woman to help take care of her grandson, Sister Hu's life is much easier than before. Not only did she get rid of her grandson's entanglement, but now she doesn't even need to do laundry and cooking, and she just plays mahjong every day to pass the time. She liked Kim Jung-ho's woman in her heart and felt that she was capable and understanding, so she decided to give Kim Jung-ho's woman more wages when she was a month.

A month passed quickly, and when it came to the day when it was time to pay her salary, Sister Hu's salary was not paid.

Kim Jung-ho's woman doesn't want money.

She said to Sister Hu, I came to help you find your grandson, out of my personal intentions, not for money.

Sister Hu was puzzled when she heard this, and said that you are not for money, you eat and live here every day, and you can't take care of your home, how can I go so carelessly?

Kim Jung-ho's woman said, you don't have to be careful, you and Mr. Chen and our family are all members of the same company, shouldn't the people of a company take care of each other?

If someone helps him with housework and takes care of his grandchildren, but insists on not taking a penny of salary, this favor is great. As the CEO of a company with an annual salary of more than one million, how can he owe his subordinate employees favors?

Sister Hu blew the wind in Mr. Chen's ear and asked him what to do about this matter.

Mr. Chen said that since she refuses to ask for salary, you can just send her back. Don't forget to take two things from the pantry and give them to her when you leave, I think both of them will be enough to cover a month's salary, so that we don't treat her badly.

Sister Hu said, what you said was light, you sent people away, will you come back to bring your grandson? I have found so many nannies, but Xiaojin's daughter-in-law is the most satisfying to me, you see how much our grandson relies on her! Even if we can do without her, I'm afraid my grandson won't be able to leave her! I can't bear to send her away!

Mr. Chen asked Sister Hu, so what should you do?

Sister Hu said, can't you see the thoughts of Xiaojin's family? I guess they just want you to promote Xiaojin in the company.

General Manager Chen smacked his lips and said, this is not a difficult thing, but it doesn't seem appropriate to promote Xiaojin all of a sudden, so let's wait until the company is moving, and then talk about it when there is a chance.

Sister Hu said, you just keep this matter in your heart.

Opportunities have to wait, and the days have to go forward. General Manager Chen's life is in an orderly manner, and Kim Jung-ho's home has long been chaotic.

Kim Jung-ho, who has never done housework since sending women to General Manager Chen's house to work as nannies, must learn to do laundry, cook, and take care of patients. Washing clothes seems to be a simple job, but it is not so easy to do it well. Kim Jung-ho put laundry detergent and rubbed it indiscriminately every time, and after the clothes were dried, either the laundry detergent was not clean, and white spots were left on the clothes; Either the dirt on the clothes is still there, and it hasn't been washed off at all. This is what washing clothes looks like, let alone cooking, either there is less salt when stir-frying, or more salt is put in when cooking; Either the rice was boiled into raw rice, or the rice was boiled into rice porridge, and his son, who was so angry that he was in junior high school, always had trouble with him, wanted to go on a hunger strike, and did not want to wear the clothes he had washed.

Laundry and cooking are not the biggest headache for Kim Jung-ho, what gives him the most headache is his old lady who is paralyzed in bed. Kim Jung-ho has to take the company's bus to work at 7 o'clock in the morning and return home from work at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. The problem of eating and drinking has been solved, but the physiological characteristics of human beings have another function, that is, Lazar. The so-called exhalation must be inhaled, there must be in, there must be out, and if there is intake, there will be excretion. In the past, Kim Jung-ho's woman took care of her mother-in-law's eating, drinking, and urinating and defecating regularly, because the woman's unit was very close to home, and sometimes she could take a leave and run home to serve her mother-in-law in the middle of work. When there is a woman, the old man is cleaned up and down, and in good weather, she can also push the old man out to bask in the sun, and the old man is not free to move, but the mood is quite comfortable every day. Now it's different, Kim Jung-ho doesn't let women run home half-heartedly, and he himself can't go home halfway, because the company is far away from home, and labor discipline doesn't allow him to do that. It takes more than ten hours from going to work in the morning to getting off work in the evening, and the convenience of the elderly has indeed become a big problem. Several times when he came back from work in the company, as soon as he pushed the door open, he smelled the house was noisy and rotten, and he couldn't bear to step on it.

In the first few times, Kim Jung-ho was very patient to help the old man wash and wash it, but then he got bored, so he came up with a note that he thought was good, that is, not to give the old man water, thinking that this would stop the old man's excretion. The old man is also very conscious, knowing that his daughter-in-law can't take care of her for her son's future, and she tries her best to endure drinking less, but how did she know that she was originally a paralyzed patient, her physique was weak, and whether she excreted or not was not something she could control, plus she couldn't exercise in bed for a long time, couldn't bask in the sun, and her diet was not regulated, asthma, constipation, and all the problems came, and it was even more serious on a cloudy day. Later, she saw that her daughter-in-law always had no time to come back to serve her, and probably felt that life was hopeless, so she lay on the bed every day and scolded, scolding her son for ignoring her, scolding Kim Jung-ho for being a disobedient and unfilial thing, and scolding herself for not dying early. Although the old man was a sick person, his voice was very loud, and sometimes the noise could be heard by the whole dormitory.

Once, Kim Jung-ho's woman came home to take a look, and saw that the bed was full of feces and urine, and the old man was skinny, so she hurriedly helped the old man wash and clean up. When the old man saw his daughter-in-law come back, he seemed to see a savior, he took his daughter-in-law's hand and didn't say a word, and the tears were like pearls with broken threads, and they fell straight to the bed.

Kim Jung-ho's woman looked a little unbearable, and said to Kim Jung-ho behind her back, or I should come back, if someone takes care of it, my mother-in-law may be able to live for a few more years.

Kim Jung-ho said, you did a good job, how can you come back? Besides, if you come back, what will Mr. Chen and Sister Hu think of me?

The woman said, "You can't watch your old lady being ruined to death like this, right?"

Kim Jung-ho said that she is in her seventies, and it is a sin to live, and it may not be a relief for her to die.

The woman said, "Your heart is really hard."

Kim Jung-ho said, it's not that my heart is hard-hearted, it's that the reality is too cruel.

The woman said, aren't you afraid that someone will poke you in the back?

Kim Jung-ho said, go your own way and let others poke it!

The woman couldn't resist him and left angrily.

Within two months, the old man was gone, leaving this world forever.

Before the Jiaxin company was moving, Yang Fatzi dismissed himself, which was not expected by the leaders of the Jiaxin company, and it was also not expected by the little people who were eager to be promoted in the Jiaxin company.

For the position of the office director, I don't know how many people in the Jiaxin company are in a trance during the day and can't sleep at night, and they are thinking about trusting relationships, looking for back doors, and spending money on gifts. Kim Jung-ho didn't do anything, or rather, he did, just did it differently than others. After filling out the application form at the Schwab Company, the first thing he did when he returned home was to take two dollars from a drawer, fold them into a roadside grocery store and buy a pack of dark coins, and in the dead of night, he sneakily knelt down by the wall and burned it. While burning the coins, he prayed that his mother would bless him as the head of the office in the underworld. In the end, he didn't forget to threaten his mother that if he couldn't be the director of the office this time, he would never burn money for her in the future, and still let her suffer poverty in the underworld for the rest of her life.

I don't know if it was the paper burning that played a role, or the help of General Manager Chen, Kim Zhenghao got his wish and sat in the chair of the office director. Sitting in the chair, there is inevitably some emotion. Thinking that the old lady died, she left some negative reputation for herself, but fortunately, she did not delay her official career, which is still worth celebrating. (To be continued.) )
