The most afraid of pride and dreams

"Give you a glass of warm water."

Lu Yuan said sourly: "Thank you, thank you."

"When are you going to go home?" the girl asked him.

"do not know."

He looked around blankly: "I never thought that there would be so many people without a place to live at night."

"You can tell by looking at you. You must not know that many people in this world live very hard."

Lu Yuan nodded. He knew that many people had a hard life, and he even knew how happy he was in the past, so he liked to read the fairy tales of Grimm and Andersen since he was a child, because their stories are not only about happiness, but also about sadness. Only treasure, and disaster.The protagonists in the story are not all happy. There are many people who are doomed to hardships in this life and cannot see the dawn.He knows all this.Only this time he really knew how horrible it was.

The girl said to him: "But look at them, even if they don't know what will happen tomorrow, they still want to sleep well and see the sun tomorrow. This is also an attitude towards life. No matter what, as long as If you still have a little energy left, you have to live on. Sometimes it takes courage to be thick-skinned."

As he spoke, he pinched his cheek.

"Your face looks quite small, but I didn't expect it to be quite honest! It's fine if you don't eat fat for 3 days."

"Yes, at least I still have fat!" Lu Yuan encouraged himself.

Despite saying so, the girl made him a sandwich.

"Here's a sandwich I made, try it."

Lu Yuan said shyly, "Will your boss say you were the one who gave me food?"

"No, our boss always tells us that we can secretly give some to those who need it. But our boss also said that for those who wear animal fur and those who make a lot of noise in bookstores, give They add less material, so it will be neutralized. Haha, you are not allowed to tell others."

Lu Yuan nodded like pounding garlic.

At 4 o'clock in the morning, Lu Yuan turned on his newly charged mobile phone to see if there were any work information apps.

"What job threshold is not particularly high, and the income is okay?"

A courier company came into view.

This courier branch is not far from the bookstore, which is just right for someone like Lu Yuan who only has 1 yuan on him, saving even the travel expenses.

Arriving at the door of this store, Lu Yuan was lingering at the door. This was the first time he was looking for a job in his life. He was very scared, but also a little happy.He began to embolden himself:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, at worst, find the next one. Nothing?"

Another voice said, "What's there! Can't find what you're eating today?"

He began to cheer himself up: "Be confident! There will be food to eat when you rush over, GO!."

At the moment when the door was opened, Lu Yuan didn't see if there was anyone inside, so he said loudly, "Boss, are you still recruiting?"

The person inside looked up: "Manager, here to apply."

In this way, he began to learn from experienced courier masters. When there was no salary on the first day, Lu Yuan asked the manager if he could pay the salary first.

The manager told him that if he was an old employee, he would be fine, but newcomers would not be treated this way.So I reminded him that if you are in a hurry to use money, you can go to the pawn shop in front, or go to a store that recycles gold or mobile phones.

Lu Yuan thought for a while and chose the watch on his hand.It was a birthday present from his mother, and he didn't know how much he bought it for, but pawned 2000 yuan.

A week later, the owner of the store called Master Li to the office.

Master Li was a little flustered, thinking that a customer complained. He is 42 years old and has some savings by working part-time in the city. He just got married two years ago and gave birth to a baby. If conditions permit in two years, he wants to go back to his hometown and open a family of his own. noodle shop.But now is not the time to leave, and the thought of being criticized by a leader younger than himself, he can't hold back his face.Thinking of this, he walked in with a disturbed expression.

"Master Li, what do you think of the new kid following you?"

"Fortunately, it turned out to be this problem." Master Li said with a sigh of relief:

"This child is really nice. He has life in his eyes and looks delicate. I didn't expect him to be able to endure hardships. Sometimes he can be said to be relatively stable when he encounters particularly difficult customers. The main reason is that I found that this child is still Very proactive in solving problems.”

The boss nodded after hearing this: "That's pretty good. It looks like we can keep him. Originally, I also looked at him as if he couldn't bear hardships and was quite impetuous. Okay, I know."

Half a month later, the branch owner saw that Lu Yuan was frugal, felt sorry for him, advanced his salary by 500 yuan, told him to eat well, and at night he continued to sleep in the bookstore.

"It's okay if it's not at home before." Master Li, who has 10 years of delivery experience, handed Lu Yuan a bottle of mineral water.

"Thank you Uncle Li, it's quite tiring. But the people here are very nice."

"Where were you before? Studying? Part-time job?"

"Study, the family needs money, so I come out."

"There is land in the house, right?"

Lu Yuan shook his head.

Master Li went on to say: "Now that the harvest season is over, there are obviously more people looking for jobs."

"..."

"Where did you read it? Junior high school, high school?"

"Freshman."

"College student! Not bad."

Lu Yuan smiled bitterly: "I haven't graduated either."

"Okay, it's good to be able to read. I will learn what I like in the future. After a long time of reading, I will be confused. Look at someone who came here to apply for a job a few days ago. They are all 18 and don't even know the words. You say It’s okay if you haven’t read, but if you can’t read, how do you read the address for delivery.”

"Yeah, then we have to switch to the voice." Lu Yuan said.

"It's not convenient to move around. But it's not easy for children like that. Usually there are several children in the family, and some children have come out to work since they were very young."

Looking at the passers-by on the street, Lu Yuan said blankly, "It's amazing to do what you can to subsidize your family."

In addition to delivering couriers, Lu Yuan also took over the job of delivering meals at night, but after a while he felt too tired. When he first saw the recruitment conditions, he didn't think much about the column of being able to endure hardship. think.It wasn't until he did this line of work that he realized what it meant to be exhausted. He felt that the workload was a bit beyond what he could bear. Moreover, this line of work was not what he really wanted as a career path, so it didn't take long. In time, he quit his part-time meal delivery job.

After work in the evening, he reads in the bookstore, looking through all kinds of books. At night, Lu Yuan's only sustenance is to send WeChat to his mother

: "My colleagues at work are very kind to me. Once I was too busy and had no time to eat, it was all done for me by my colleagues. They are very kind and very simple. Everyone is working hard to survive legitimately, and I People I've seen before are different."

Lu's mother: "My baby, my mother can't be by your side, and misses you very much every day. Fortunately, you have Uncle Cheng on your side. You just need to feel happy and get along with your colleagues."

"Okay, Mom, don't worry. How is Dad?"

"Your father is still silent every day, but now he is stable on drugs. He seems to be writing to you and asking me for your address. Where is your company's address?"

"Don't send a letter, just take a picture with your mobile phone and send it to me. It can make Dad write more letters to ease his mood."

"Okay baby, we rented a small room near your second aunt's house, and we all have a care."

In addition to the text, Mama Lu also sent a group photo of her family by the tree.

"It looks very comfortable. I will start to pay soon, and I will send it to you when the time comes."

"No, there is still more money. The consumption here is not high, enough to live on. If you have extra money, you can treat Uncle Cheng to a meal, or give him some back. Although he will definitely not ask for it, you still have to be grateful. Mom After a while, I will find a part-time job, otherwise it will be difficult to do nothing here. You should also take care of yourself and eat well."

Turning off the screen, Lu Yuan put the phone in his heart: "It's already very good, this is already very good. In fact, that Cheng Guanlin is not too bad, but why is he?"

Soon Lu Yuan was able to handle the terrain he delivered with ease. After receiving the salary, 60% of the salary would be sent to Cheng Guanlin's card number every month.Another 20 percent was sent to his mother's account.The rest is for living expenses.

Unexpectedly, not long after the money was transferred to Cheng Guanlin, the old man actually called Lu Yuan himself.

"Boy, just send me this little bit. When will you pay me back 5 million! Ah! What are you asking? Why don't you speak? What are you doing now?"

"Have a meal."

"You still have the face to eat, save me the money for the meal!" After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone with a beep.

Lu Yuan said to himself on the phone: "Mom, I just want to thank him, but I can't thank him."

"You are so far away from the phone, can the other party hear it?" Lu Yuan's master Uncle Li walked to him with a lunch box.
