I moved, and it hurt all over my body. But he struggled to sit up. When Zhang Xu saw me sitting, he hurriedly said, "Wen Li, didn't I say it?" You don't want to go to work again today. Rest at home for a few days. Maybe, my sister-in-law won't go to the hospital in a few days, and you'll have to take care of my dad. Don't go. ”

I didn't listen to him, and I didn't answer him. Instead, he endured the physical pain and went down the kang. Since I slept in my clothes last night, I don't have to wear clothes in the morning.

After I got off the ground, I first took a mirror and looked at it. As soon as I looked in the mirror, I realized why Zhang Xu asked me to rest all the time. Because I now have a blue nose and swollen face, I was beaten by him. Although it was a night, all traces of his beating were still there. The eyes were already swollen into a slit, and a piece of the head was also scratched and bloody, and the lips were swollen like sausages without knowing whether they were knocked or punched by him. Messy hair. In the mirror, I look like a female ghost. How do I go to work like this?

Seeing my miserable appearance in the mirror, I threw the mirror in my hand to the ground.

The mirror shattered, and I crawled on the edge of the kang with my head in my hands, crying silently. Tears flowed down like beads with broken threads.

Zhang Xu ignored me and didn't talk to me again, I heard him sweeping up the broken lenses on the ground. When it was all over, he said, "I'm leaving."

If you're hungry, make your own food in a moment. ”

I still crawled on the edge of the kang and cried silently, without answering his words.

I heard his footsteps coming out of the house, then the sound of pushing the motorcycle, then the sound of the door opening and the sound of the motorcycle starting, and when all these sounds were gone, I knew that Zhang Xu had gone away.

I stopped crawling there crying, but stood up, washed my face, and started tidying up the house, and when I was done with everything, I sat on the couch again, and was stunned. I don't know what to do now. You can't go to work. If you go to work like this, you can't make your colleagues laugh to death. In the future, I am afraid that it will be used as an after-dinner joke by colleagues.

But if you don't go to work, how can you talk to the squad leader? I really can't open my mouth. I won't go, and if the squad leader wants to fire me, I'll fire him. The company stipulates that if you are absent from work for three days without asking for leave, you will be dismissed. Then I'll just wait for the squad leader to fire me. There's nothing more to say. Because I can't ask for leave now, I just started a day of work, and the class leader also talked to me, what excuse do I have to ask for leave now? To tell you the truth, let my husband beat, and I can't go to work because my nose is blue and my face is swollen? Of course, this cannot be said, nor is it a reason to take time off.

I don't want to think about anything, just sit down. I sat all the time, didn't move or speak, and now I really wish I could sit and die here. I've never regretted it so much as I do now. Why did you get a certificate with him so early? If I don't get the certificate, I don't report the good news to my father early, then I can still get out of this situation. It's late on the spot, it's late for everything. Can't pull out anymore.

That's when I heard my phone ring. I took my mobile phone and saw that it was a call from my former colleague Xu Tingting from the factory. I quickly picked it up: "Sister Ji, I'm Tingting." "Xu Tingting is younger than me, so she keeps calling me Sister Ji.

"Tingting, why did you call me at this time?" I asked her in a somewhat hoarse voice.

"Sister Ji, why do you sound dumb? What's wrong with you? Sick? Xu Tingting asked me with concern.

When we were in the factory, we were always good. So even though I left that factory, Xu Tingting still called me whenever she had time. Sometimes I call her too.

"It's not like that, I don't know why I caught a cold, and I'm feeling sick now." I followed her words. After saying that, I was surprised to find that I don't have to type a draft to lie now. Is it that the one who is close to Zhu is red, and the one who is close to ink is black, and he has been with Zhang Xu for a long time, and he has also been influenced by him?

"Really? Then you'll have to get some medicine or I'll send you some. Tingting said half-truthfully.

Before I met Zhang Xu, Xu Tingting and I were not only in a factory, but also in a dormitory. She is from Anhui and is short. Usually not very good at talking, but the heart is not bad. But because she doesn't speak very well and doesn't look very good, some people don't treat her very well. But I know she's a nice person. So I've always been good to her. Once, she had a cold and it was still raining lightly outside, so I braved the rain to go to the pharmacy and buy her cold medicine.

Originally, I thought it was just a small thing, but because it was such a small thing, she was grateful to me from then on. Treat me like a sister. Once, I accidentally said that I didn't know where to sell fritters. The next morning, she actually got up early and ran a long way to buy me fritters. She is a person who knows how to repay her kindness. Same character as me. I'm also the kind of person who respects me and I respect others.

Since then, we've been friends who talk about everything.

As soon as I heard her words, I quickly said, "I have already bought the medicine and taken it, so don't worry about it." It's so far away, I want you to take a day off and buy some medicine to send it to me? How can my sister do such a thing? ”

"What's that? Didn't Sister Ji brave the heavy rain to buy medicine for me? ”

"Do you remember this little thing?" I said with a smile.

"Of course I remember, this is not a trivial matter, I have to remember this for the rest of my life."

"Okay, don't be poor, Tingting, I guess you didn't call to talk to me, right? You must have something to tell me. ”

"How do you know I'm not just talking to you?"

"Don't you know that I came out of that factory? It's time to go to work, do you still dare to chat? You just miss me and want to say a few words to me, but it has to be after work, or at meal time, and you will never call me during work hours. Unless you're resting, like me. ”

"Sister Ji, you are still smart, and I can't hide anything from you." Tingting said.

"Tingting, are you praising me? That is, if you say I'm smart, there's no other person besides you who says I'm smart. Say, what's the matter. ”

"Sister Ji, there are a lot of orders in our factory now. The director knows that I have a good relationship with you, and she asked me to call you and want you to come back to work. Of course, I also know that you are too far from home. However, the director said that even if you don't work for a long time, you can do it, but the order in your hand is too anxious, so let you come over to help for a while. This batch of jobs is snatched out, can you go back again? ”

After listening to Tingting's words, I thought about it and said, "Then how long will it take to complete this batch of work?" ”

"A month, you can help for a month. You can take a leave of absence from your old employer and say you're in trouble. You're only making three thousand dollars a month there. But you're here, and I'll keep you eight or nine thousand a month. Twenty-five dollars an hour and twelve hours a day, how much do you calculate? ”

I thought about it and said, "Okay, but I can't go today because I haven't gotten my cold yet." Let's go back in two or three days. ”

"Okay, Sister Ji, then we can talk about it, you can't change anymore."

"Well, of course it can't be changed." I say.

"Then I'll tell the director. We'll see you in a few days. ”

"Okay, we'll see you in a few days."
