Yun Qin asked Fang Caili to take care of his luggage, and he walked out of the station to buy food by himself. Fang Caili said to Yun Qin: "You can go out and eat, I'm not hungry yet." Yun Qin doubted her and said, "It's been a whole day, why aren't you hungry?" Don't lie to anyone, I just run out of money, and I won't let you go hungry with me. Yun Qin went for a long time to come back, and he bought a few vegetarian buns and light steamed buns for Fang Caili. Fang Caili took the steamed bun and ate it, and handed the bun back to Yun Qin for him to eat. Yun Qin said that he brought it after eating well in the store, and he couldn't eat it anymore. Caili knew that Yun Qin would definitely be reluctant to eat by herself, so she said to Yun Qin: "Yun Qin, even if you have eaten it, you should eat it in front of me now, so that I can rest assured." If you don't eat it, I'll ignore you. Yun Qin then smiled and said, "Caili, you are really a bit 'difficult for a strong man'." So he took one and ate it. Fang Caili handed over another one, he resolutely refused to eat and pointed to his stomach and said, "Look, my stomach is swollen, I can't eat anymore." It's better to keep it for now, it will be delicious tomorrow, and it won't spoil right away. ”

Fang Caili wrapped the bun and put it in the bag. Now they are four hours away from the station closing, which means that they can stay at the station for more than three hours at most before they are back on the streets. Well, there are still a few hours to spend on the streets. Fortunately, the square outside the station was full of stranded passengers, and even if they participated, it would be the same, and no one would be crowded because of the arrival of two people.

Xu Yunqin hoped that Fang Caili would seize the time to rest, saying that he couldn't sleep in the first half of the night, and he would take care of the luggage. Fang Caili objected: "You still have to look for a job tomorrow?" You go to sleep first, otherwise, how can you do without energy? Xu Yunqin stopped arguing with Fang Caili and went to sleep on a chair in the waiting hall. Fang Caili looked at Xu Yunqin's tired body, and the scene of Xu Yunqin falling asleep after a while couldn't help but give birth to a lot of emotion: Yunqin, Yunqin, you are indeed a good man, my Caili can have you, and it will not be in vain for me to spend my life. Yun Qin, you must hold on, you are now my only spiritual support, if you fall, my Cai Li will not be able to live.

Xu Yunqin left, leaving Fang Caili to take care of a bunch of luggage. She stopped under a large banyan tree in the station square, the tall canopy of the tree like a huge umbrella blocking the scorching sunlight from the outside, forming a large gray-black circle, and in this large circle, many passengers were crowded in this black circle. These acquaintances and acquaintances either talk to each other or take a nap by themselves. Fang Caili didn't want to talk to anyone because she didn't sleep well last night, and now she has to take care of her luggage, but fortunately, the people around her didn't deliberately pay attention to her.

Xu Yunqin went to the outskirts of the city to the north today, where he has not had time to go over for the past few days, and now he has walked in other directions, and he has not yet found a suitable job. He had already made up his mind that he must find a job today, even if it was the hardest and most tiring work. There are not many construction sites in the north, and he also came by bus, some of which are too remote and not even accessible by bus, so he walks a little way to find them. He is also a construction site looking for the past like this, which is tiring and inefficient, but he has no better way, he doesn't dare to take a taxi and rent a car, the money in his pocket is already very pitiful, he has to be careful to maintain a few days, otherwise, if he doesn't plan, I'm afraid he will already drink the northwest wind.

Xu Yunqin's three construction sites were all gone in one go, but he still didn't find a job, and the two construction sites guarded the construction site and didn't let him in, he couldn't find the person in charge of the construction site. What worries me most now is that if I can't find a job, I can only go home. He didn't care about himself, but Fang Caili must be unwilling, Fang Caili had already said that even if he went to beg for food, he didn't want to go back to Shanghu Village for the time being. She has the will to stay in Guangzhou, and she is a dignified man, but she has no backbone at all? Xu Yunqin really has mixed tastes, and the sweetness and bitterness linger in his heart for a while, and he can't retreat for a long time. He looked dejected when he got on the bus, and the conductor had reminded him several times that he hadn't taken the initiative to buy a ticket yet. The conductor had no choice but to walk up to him and said dissatisfiedly: Please buy the ticket, I have reminded you several times, why don't you react at all?

Xu Yunqin hurriedly went to pay for the ticket, and the people around him projected it on him with a strange look. Xu Yunqin itched all over his body, as if there were countless ants on his back gnawing at the epidermis. He looked for the back seat of the car and sat down, burying his head between his hands, only in this way could he avoid the eyes of everyone and not look embarrassed.

He had to make two transfers to get to the station, and he had to walk one stop to catch another bus. His listless appearance had already attracted the attention of a middle-aged man, and he also followed him out of the car, but he did not greet him, nor did he overtake him, so he followed him unhurriedly. Xu Yunqin didn't notice that he was being followed, and just walked forward. Xu Yunqin got on the bus at the second stop, and the middle-aged man also got on the bus and sat behind him. The conductor came over to collect the fee, Xu Yunqin handed over the money, and the middle-aged man in the back rummaged in his pocket several times, but still did not find the money to pay the bus fare. Someone next to him said cool words: looking at people and dogs, even the bus wants to sit in vain. When Xu Yunqin heard this, he turned around and asked: Brother, did you forget to bring money? The middle-aged man nodded a little awkwardly. Xu Yunqin didn't say much, so he paid for the ticket for him. The middle-aged man patted him on the shoulder and said, "Little brother, thank you!"

Yun Qin got off the bus and he got off, so Yun Qin asked him: Brother, where is your home, how many more buses do you need to take? The middle-aged man smiled and said: Little brother, we are estimated to be on the same road, are you waiting for the No. 17 bus now? Yun Qin nodded, and the man looked at him again with a plea look, and the two didn't speak for a few seconds. Xu Yunqin spoke again: Brother, just get in the car, I will pay the fare for you. The middle-aged man nodded humbly and said, "Little brother, I don't think you actually have much money, and we don't know each other, why do you want to help me?" Xu Yunqin smiled bitterly: "They are all people who go out, who has not encountered difficulties, do not hide from my brother, I have been looking for a job here for almost a week, but I still haven't found it, we were kicked out by the owner of the hostel, and now we are stranded in the square of the railway station." ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he looked very puzzled: "You are like this, why do you want to help me?" Yun Qin smiled and said, "Because of this, what's the use of one or two yuan more anyway?" It's just a pity that we are about to say goodbye to this beautiful metropolitan city. The middle-aged man asked him calmly, "Do you still have companions?" Xu Yunqin nodded and said, "I also have a companion, she is my fiancée." The middle-aged man said suspiciously, "Don't you have any relatives and friends here?" Xu Yunqin shook his head and said, "I was too hasty when I came, and I haven't met a fellow countryman or anything in the past few days." ”

The middle-aged man asked again, "What kind of job are you going to find here, or what job can you trust?" Xu Yunqin said without thinking: "I have studied masonry for more than half a year, and my wife has not learned any crafts." The middle-aged man sighed: "You guys are too reckless, don't you, dare to come out and mess around without any skills?" ”

Xu Yunqin said sadly: "We are indeed blind, but if it weren't for the fact that our family borrowed a lot of foreign debts because of the two of us, we would definitely not go out for a while." ”

The middle-aged man nodded sympathetically and said, "I believe you must also be forced by your family, since you can't find a job for a while now, I have an idea, I don't know if you will try it?" Xu Yunqin thanked warmly: "You say, I have nothing to be picky about now." The middle-aged man then said, "Then I'll just say it, as long as you don't dislike it, I can introduce you to a job, but people are very hard." Xu Yunqin saw that the middle-aged man didn't seem to be joking, so he said earnestly: "Good brother, I'm in this situation, am I still qualified to dislike it?" The middle-aged man seemed to be very happy: "So I can rest assured, but this work is only a temporary transition, not necessarily long, and at present, I can only solve your problem, as for your lover, I can't do anything." Well, you can come to the place where you got in the car tomorrow, and I'll wait for you there, take you there, and make sure you have a job. ”

When the car came, Yun Qin asked him to get on first, and the middle-aged man said with a smile: "I decided not to leave temporarily, he specially handed Yun Qin a paper bag and said that you don't have to open it in a hurry, and then open it when you see your woman." The middle-aged man was about to leave, Yun Qin pulled the corner of his clothes and said, "Brother, you haven't told me your name yet?" The middle-aged man pushed him into the car and said with a smile: "You're here tomorrow, I'll tell you it's not too late, right?" Now go back and treat your lover. ”

Yun Qin sat in the car, a little puzzled by the strange behavior of this benevolent brother: Who is he? When did you start paying attention to me? Why did you give me a paper bag and tell me to treat Fang Caili well? I told him that I was in my current situation, and he didn't understand what I meant.

Thinking about it, he hesitated to open the paper bag, and when he opened it only a little, he found that it seemed to be a stack of paper money. Xu Yunqin wiped his eyes in disbelief, it was so dark that he couldn't see anyone, and he could see the man through the flickering street lamp outside the car window.
