The moon has risen into the sky, and I am gazing at it with infatuation. The stars are changing, and only the distant expectation in my heart is the eternal attachment.
Xiao Jiqiang didn't want to see his stepmother's ridicule and his father's impatient expression. He began to wander the streets of the city, wandering around like a lonely ghost.
Hunger, hunger, hunger always haunted him. One day, he saw in the newspapers scattered on the street that there were many job postings. He picked one at random and came to the door of a hotel called the Royal Hotel. The hotel is magnificently decorated, and there are two doormen standing in front of the door. They were wearing bright cheongsam, about the same age as Xiao Jiqiang, fifteen or sixteen years old, and their immature cheeks were rubbed with thick fat powder. As soon as a guest came, they mechanically kept repeating, bowing, and then saying in unison, "Welcome"; Then welcome guests into the hotel.
The doorman saw the unkempt little Ji Qiang coming to the door, and said disdainfully, "What are you doing?" , get dirty, go away". "I'm hungry, I'm here to find a job," Xiao Jiqiang said humbly. "Excuse me, please, to the boss."
"Alright! Look at your pitiful appearance, we will say it for you, we don't know if it will be successful. After speaking, a doorman ran in, and Xiao Ji couldn't help but say: "Thank you, thank you"
After a while, a fat-headed and big-eared guy came out of the hotel, squinted his eyes and looked at Xiao Jiqiang, and saw that Xiao Jiqiang was quite sturdy, and he felt good.
He shook his two fat lips and said, "Boy, take care of food and shelter here, work hard, and your salary is indispensable at the end of the month." Xiao Jiqiang hurriedly said: "Thank you, thank you boss."
Xiao Jiqiang started his first part-time job career in this way, getting up at five o'clock every morning, because the hotel has to sell breakfast, so he must prepare in advance. The hotel does not allow them to eat breakfast in the morning, and they can only eat until there are no customers for breakfast. Because he got up too early, the adolescent Xiao Jiqiang was already hungry before he started working, but he had to endure it until the work was done before he could eat, which was the rule of the hotel and could not be violated.
At six o'clock in the morning, the hotel officially began to welcome guests, and customers came to the hotel in an endless stream to eat.
Xiao Jiqiang's job is to clean the dishes in the back window, looking at the customers happily eating breakfast outside the window, Xiao Jiqiang feels even more hungry. He couldn't bear the hunger in his stomach, so he filled the leftovers left by the customers into his stomach regardless of the thirty-seven twenty-one.
