Chapter 4 Lottery
Since Shen Xin drank the half bottle of water he had picked up, he felt hungry and walked back to the town when he had money.
At two o'clock in the morning, there was a snack bar that was not closed, and I asked for a bottle of mineral water and a fried powder. The taste of fried noodles is very average, and I don't know how much oil was poured in, but a layer was left at the bottom of the bowl after eating.
During this period, Shen Xin counted the money he had robbed, and there were five or ten yuan in a piece, and there were only forty-three yuan in total.
took out three dollars and settled the bill with the boss.
Sighing at the low prices, I thought to myself:
"Well, a serving of fried noodles is only three yuan, and forty-three yuan is enough to spend a few days on your own food."
"But you can't just eat, your upper body is still bare, and you have to find a place to sleep. When you don't have money, you can't help it, and now that you have money, you don't have to suffer that sin, and you don't want to live as tired as in your previous life. ”
After eating, you have to find a place to stay, there are many small hotels in the town, and the doors are still open at this time.
The sign at the door of a small hotel said fifteen yuan a day, and Shen Xin thought that he didn't have much money on him, so he could only find a cheap place to live.
Entering the small hotel, there was a man in his forties lying on the deck chair in front of the counter with squinting eyes. On the opposite side was a dilapidated table fan, whirring and blowing the wind in front of him.
Hearing a voice, he opened his eyes and looked at the door.
"Pretty boy, do you want to stay?"
Shen Xin nodded and said to the middle-aged man:
"Open a room for me"
The middle-aged man stood up with a smile, turned off the fan and walked to the counter.
"Okay, I'll sign up,"
The middle-aged man took out a small notebook and wrote:
"You give me twenty or fifteen room fees, five yuan deposit, if I only stay for one day, I will leave before three o'clock in the afternoon on a cloudy day."
Shen Xin took out twenty yuan and put it on the counter, looked at the middle-aged man and said:
"Okay, no problem."
"Boss, can I take a shower in my room?"
"Take a shower in the shared bathroom on the second floor, let's go, I'll take you up."
As he spoke, he took the key and led Shen Xin to the second floor.
"Now, just this one, the bathroom corridor goes to the end, and you can see it in the past."
The boss opened the door and handed over the key, and pointed to the location of the bathroom.
"Pretty boy, have a good rest, give me the key when you leave, I'll give you a refund, and go down to me if there's anything."
Shen Xin took the key and thanked the man:
"Okay, thank you boss"
The middle-aged man waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to, and walked down.
Shen Xin walked into the room, which was more than six square meters in size, and there was a double bed in it, two pillows at the head of the bed, and a thin blanket on the side of the pillow. There was a small ceiling fan hanging on the roof, but it wasn't too hot right now, so Shen Xin didn't turn it on.
When Shen Xin was about to go to wash, the voices of men and women came from the next room, although the voice was lowered, but the sound insulation of the room was too poor, and it was still clearly transmitted.
The boy whispered:
"Let's try again, shall we?"
The girl hesitated and whispered:
"Okay, okay, you put that on"
Then came the sound of the squeaky bed, but before Shinshin could curse, it stopped, and then fell into a deathly silence. After standing and listening for a while, no sound came out again, and he chuckled and shook his head.
There was nothing to do all night, and when Shen Xin woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
I was woken up by the heat, and there wasn't even a window in the room, of course, it couldn't be said that there was no window, there was still a little, but it couldn't be opened. This should be a large room changed into three small rooms, and the one I live in has a window of less than 30 centimeters.
Seeing that the time was almost up, I didn't turn on the fan and left the room directly. Out of the hotel, I found a clean restaurant nearby, sat closer to the fan, ordered a dish and an egg soup, and the rice could be beaten by yourself, and I was full.
After eating, I checked out the shop owner and asked the boss if he could sit here, and after the boss nodded in agreement, Shen Xin sat there and looked at the mobile phone, there were not many functions in the mobile phone, telephone, message, ringtone and a few small games.
Shen Xin, who was full of food and drink and had nothing to do, played a little game there.
As the time came to night, seeing that the bald head was not about to leave, the boss walked over with an ugly face and said:
"Pretty boy, it's time for dinner, do you want to eat?"
"Let's have a pork knuckle rice."
Shen Xin didn't look at the boss's face, and looked at the menu posted on the wall and said unconcernedly.
The boss didn't say anything more, turned around and went to prepare.
Shen Xin thought about his small amount of money and planned to make another order in the evening.
"It's impossible to find a factory to work in, and I'll never go to work in my life."
Thinking of this, Shen Xin chuckled, this life is going to be rotten, how to be happy.
Thinking of these haves and nos, Shen Xin shouted to the boss:
"Bring me another bottle of liquor"
"What kind of wine?" At this time, the meal was ready, and the boss brought it over.
"What's the wine? Take a bottle of something cheaper. ”
"Lonely wine, 10 yuan a bottle," the boss said impatiently.
"Okay, get a bottle"
I still secretly complained about such an attitude in my heart, I wish you a happy closure as soon as possible.
Wait for the wine to come up, pour yourself a glass, and secretly respect the new beginning.
Drink it all down.
"Hiss", "Enough"
A glass of more than two taels of liquor feels hot and spicy.
"Drink liquor on a hot day, and you can drink it yourself."
Shen Xin poured another glass and ate a few bites of food, regretting that he should have asked for a cold beer.
After drinking a bottle of wine, the meal was almost finished, and he looked at the dead flies and insects that had just been put on the edge of the plate, and shouted to the boss:
"Boss, boss, come and see"
"What's wrong?"
Now it was Venerable Master's time, and the busy boss came over and looked at the bald head, who was shirtless, with a terrifying skull tattooed on his back, and had occupied his place all afternoon after eating.
If it weren't for the fact that it didn't look easy to provoke, I would have been driven out. He sat at this table, and the customers subconsciously bypassed, which seriously affected the business of the store.
"Come, see what this is? Evil or not disgusting? ”
Looking at the boss who came over, Shen Xin stood up and picked up the plate, pointed at the flies and asked viciously:
"What do you want? Is it okay to not charge for this meal? ”
The customers around looked over, and the boss was annoyed, and said with an ugly face:
Shen Xin, who was thinking about saving a meal, didn't expect the boss to be so easy to speak, and his momentum also decreased.
"Hey, forget it"
Shen Xin put down the plate, wiped his mouth with a tissue, glanced left and right, and walked out.
The boss looked at Shen Xin, who was gone, and scolded him for being unlucky while cleaning up the table.
Shen Xin, who took advantage of it, hummed a little song in a good mood, and walked to the stall that sold sympathy last night. Shen Xin, who drank a bottle of a pound of liquor, didn't feel it when he was sitting, and after walking for a while, his head began to feel a little dizzy.
When I came to the small booth selling twins last night, I spent 10 yuan to buy a terror that cost 15 yuan yesterday, and I was still a little depressed in my confidence.
The situation is like this~
"How much does this compassion cost?"
"Handsome guy, take 15 yuan"
"Is $10 okay?"
"Okay, do you want me to put it up for you?"
"No"
Shenxin, who didn't experience the pleasure of counteroffering, had a feeling of losing money, scolded the boss for treating it differently, reluctantly took out the money and handed it over, took the shirt and dressed up and turned away depressedly.
At this time, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually increased, and Shen Xin looked at a stall in front of him, surrounded by a circle of people.
In the past, it was a lottery, free drawing, a box with cards, the first prize was a digital camera, the second prize was a rice cooker, and the first and second prizes had to take out half of the value of the product. The things on the table of the third prize can be taken for free, there are inserts, scissors, and other daily necessities.
Shen Xin saw that there was a mobile phone universal charger on the table, thinking that he could charge his mobile phone, and after looking at it for a while, he saw that most of them were drawn and won the third prize, so he squeezed in and reached into the box and pulled out a card.
The boss smiled and looked at the card in Shen Xin's hand, "Congratulations to the handsome guy for winning the first prize"
