12. Prepare for interviews
I didn't sleep well that night, and the soles of my feet had a faint pain, and it was probably almost dawn before I fell asleep in a daze.
In the dream, I was chased, I ran desperately, but a pair of legs like lead could not be lifted, seeing that someone was caught, I suddenly woke up and sat up, and my body was sweating profusely.
It was already dawn, the horn of a car was heard outside the window, and I heard my aunt already working in the kitchen, presumably preparing breakfast for my uncle.
I moved my feet, there was no obvious pain, maybe it really didn't hurt the flesh, I put my feet on the ground, tried to stand up and walked two steps, it was not bad, the soles of my feet could land, if I put a little toe on my toes, there was no major problem in walking.
No wonder San'er said that the beggar gang is the tiger's den in Longtan, killing people without blinking, and if you don't die, you have to pick up a layer of skin, yesterday I went, if I changed someone, I am afraid that he will really be made into a human and sent to the street to ask for money.
I opened the door softly, the door of my uncle's room was open, I didn't see my uncle's figure, I walked to the outhouse, my aunt heard a noise and came out of the kitchen, saw me standing outside, and quickly said, "Why are you up?" It's still early, hurry up and sleep again. ”
I said, "Where's your uncle, leaving for work?" ”
Auntie: "Yes, he has to get up at five o'clock in the morning, and he leaves early at six o'clock." By the way, I called your cousin last night, and she kept saying thank you, and your cousin didn't rest, but she was so noisy on the phone, as if she hadn't gone back yet. ”
I said, "Thank you so much, I'm afraid she won't find me, I'm in a hurry, since I told her, it's fine, my cousin must be out there to socialize so noisy." ”
Auntie nodded and didn't say anything, I looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was half past seven, Lian Xin and I made an appointment to meet at Yadu Square before nine o'clock, I had to hurry up and prepare to go out.
I said, "Auntie, my feet are fine, you are at home, I have made an appointment to go to the interview today, and I have to rush to Yadu Plaza in Xuhui." ”
Auntie: "Can you really do it?" I can't find any other job in this job, so don't be reckless. ”
I walked a few steps in front of her and said, "Look at Auntie, I'm really fine, I can go, and I'll come to see you when I find a job." ”
Auntie: "When I went out in the morning, he also told me to keep you and wait for him to come back to change your dressing, your uncle will definitely blame me for leaving like this." ”
I said, "I can really go, you explain to my uncle, this job opportunity is very rare, I have to go." ”
"That's okay, but you have to eat before leaving, Yadu I know it's not far from here, you don't need to transfer by bus, there are few stops, I'll accompany you later."
I had no choice but to let her bring me breakfast to the table and force me to eat it.
I ate four steamed buns and drank a big bowl of porridge.
After my aunt saw that I was full, she asked me to go to the bathroom to freshen up and dress myself, until she saw that I had cleaned myself up, and then let me go out.
Seeing my aunt take such good care of me, I feel like I'm by my parents' side.
When I went downstairs, my aunt kept holding my arm, for fear that I would not be able to stand firm and fall down all of a sudden.
My aunt took me to the station and watched me get on the train, and the car started, but she still stood there and watched the car go away.
Ignorant life, non-relatives, uncles and aunts didn't even ask me who my surname was, they took me to the house to take care of the material, which made my mood calm for a long time, let me feel the beauty of the world in the most helpless time, a few years later, I mentioned this past to my uncle, uncle said: "My son is studying in Beijing, he is also alone in a foreign country, he has also received the help of many well-wishers, seeing you, it is like seeing a son who is alone, can help you, just like helping my son, Don't always keep it in mind, we're just a gesture, it's a very ordinary thing, as long as it's a parent, whoever meets it will reach out, nothing. ”
Although he said this, I don't agree, doesn't the beggar gang boss have children? Even if he has no children, he always has parents and other relatives, why is he so hateful, can I be a fish and you as a sword, and let him slaughter?
And his subordinates, who were not raised by his parents? Why can you ignore human ethics and be someone else's walking dead? Don't they have affection? Don't have a conscience?
The car was parked opposite Yadu Plaza, I cautiously stepped down the door, the sun was a little dazzling, I stood in place for a while, looked at the pedestrian crossing that was quite far away, and tried to take a step, fortunately, my feet could land, but it was a little awkward, I tried to make myself normal, it was best not to let Lian Xin see my abnormality.
When I got off the bus, I glanced at the clock on the bus, it was still twenty minutes before nine o'clock, I was not in a hurry, and walked across the road unhurriedly.
I saw Lian Xin from afar, she was wearing a light blue dress today, her beautiful calves were exposed under the dress, a gust of wind blew her hand and grabbed the sunhat on her head, looking around, I thought she must be looking for me, but she didn't expect me to stand not far behind her.
I didn't call out to her until I got close to her, and she turned around and smiled happily when she saw me standing in front of her.
She said, "I thought you couldn't find the car, but I didn't expect you to be so punctual." ”
I said, "You're here early?" ”
"No, I'm still hesitant to go to your residence to look for you at home, but we don't have mobile phones, there is no way to contact, in case we go on a bad trip, no one can find anyone at that time."
I smiled, and I tried to stay still as much as I could when she looked at me, for fear that she would see her walking posture.
But she just looked at me fixedly, and looked at me with strange eyes, thinking that I was standing so far away.
I had no choice but to approach her in a pose, and she came over and took my hand and said, "It's almost time, let's go up." ”
When she pulled, I subconsciously moved, but I didn't expect my feet to use no force and almost fell.
She seemed to feel my body tilted, turned her head to look at me in surprise, I hurriedly stood up straight, smiled and said, "My foot twisted, it's okay, let's go." ”
"Ahh Did you twist your foot? Let me see, have you sprained? ”
I hurriedly pulled him and said, "How can it be sprained?" Isn't that good? Let's go, it's not good to be late for the interview. ”
She didn't say anything about me, and she didn't bother anymore, and we walked together to the main entrance hall of the building.
It was probably past work hours, and there weren't many people in the lobby on the first floor, so I explained my intention to the security guard, and he told me to go to the elevator hall and take elevator No. 2 to the 26th floor.
There are four elevators in a row in the elevator room, which stop on different floors, and two of them are on the ground floor, No. 1 and No. 2 are divided into odd and even numbers, No. 1 is stopped by single number, and No. 2 is stopped by double number.
I looked at Lian Xin and felt that she was a little nervous, and her little palms were sweaty.
I said to her: "Lian Xin, this time we will be a rehearsal, it doesn't matter if it works out or not, it's a big deal, let's go back and find an electronics factory, we are graduates of colleges and universities, and we can always find a job that we can't eat." ”
Lian Xin snorted, I didn't know if my comfort worked, I patted her back with my hand, she looked up at me and smiled and whispered: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm used to rejection anyway, it doesn't matter if it's more or less." ”
The stairs clanged and stopped on the 26th floor.
My heart suddenly became nervous, this was the first interview in my life, I had never encountered rejection, I didn't know what it was like to refuse, my mind was blank, and I couldn't remember what to say for a while.
Lian Xin saw my nervousness, my nose was sweating as soon as I was nervous, she took out a tissue from her bag, carefully wiped it for me, and then said: "Xiao Xu, it's a big deal that we'll go to the electronics factory in a while, I used to run around alone, but now we are two people, what's so scary." ”
I said yes, now we are two people, not afraid.
We followed the corridor to find room 2603, and before we reached the door, we saw more than a dozen square stools on both sides of the corridor, the stools were full of young people, and a few without stools were standing next to them.
I approached these people and asked a young man at the end, "You are also here for an interview with Suntech?" ”
Young man: "Yes, you too?" ”
I nodded and asked him, "Have you started?" ”
The young man said not yet, you go to the door and get a number plate and call by the number.
After listening to what he said, Lian Xin hurriedly went to the door to ask for a number plate.
Lian Xin took back two number plates, one seventeen and one eighteen, and she handed me seventeen and said, "When the time comes, you go in first, and I will cover." ”
She made me laugh all at once, and I said, "You think it's a war, and it's covering." ”
She said with a serious face: "Yes, this is a war, anyway, I thought about it, if you are brushed down, I won't even go in, I don't want to look for a job alone, you have to accompany me to find it." ”
