say love

After Shen Yan and Aunt Chen returned home, they washed their hands and changed their clothes as usual, and began to eat dinner. After eating a bowl of hot soup, Shen Yan realized that he had been outside for a long time, and he was a little bit cold, and now his stomach began to feel faint again. pain.

Thinking about how he could be regarded as a sunny boy back then, who would have thought that in just a few years, his body would be so dilapidated, and stomach pains and the like would almost become commonplace. Shen Yan lit a candle for himself in his heart, and drank it silently. a bowl of soup.

After eating and clearing away the dishes, Aunt Chen wanted to go back as usual, but today, Shen Yan felt that she seemed to be dragging her feet, and hadn't left the door for a long time.

"Aunt Chen, what's the matter?" Shen Yan asked while sitting on the sofa.

"This... is something. My daughter-in-law is due soon, and I think I can make it this weekend at most." Aunt Chen looked at Shen Yan, hesitated, and said with a little guilt.

"Ah, so fast, Aunt Chen, congratulations in advance for becoming a grandma." Shen Yan said to Aunt Chen with a smile, "Isn't this something we have agreed on before? Why are you embarrassed to speak up?"

"But on Mr. Shen's side, no one has been found to take over." Aunt Chen looked at Shen Yan with a trace of pity in her heart.

When Aunt Chen came here, she had promised to be a live-in housekeeper, but she had only been working for a year. The wife of the Shen family thought that the price of full-time housekeeping was too high, so she changed her mind, and only asked her to come over for a few hours every afternoon to help with cleaning. , buy vegetables and cook a dinner.

It just so happened that her son got married at that time and wanted her to resign and return to her hometown, but Shen's father hadn't found a suitable replacement for a long time. In the morning, he found another job, and only worked at Shen's house in the afternoon, and discussed with Shen's father, so that her daughter-in-law would go back after giving birth.

In fact, Aunt Chen mentioned this matter to Father Shen two months ago, and mentioned it more than once, and recommended a fellow villager who is down-to-earth and willing to work hard, but until now, no one has come to take over. I understand that I don't know when the next housekeeping will come, or even if I can come.

After all, she has worked here for more than two years, and she knows something about Shen Yan's situation. In the past two years, she only met Shen's father twice, and it was because of work, and she had never met Shen Yan's mother at all. .

Shen Yan is only a few years younger than her own son, she still loves this sensible child from the bottom of her heart, but no matter what, she still has to take care of her family.

"Oh, that's right." Shen Yan lowered his head halfway, rubbed his swollen temples with his hands, raised his head after being silent for a while, and said to Aunt Chen with a smile on his face: "It's okay, you go your way." , just take advantage of the time before the next housekeeper comes, and I will train myself again."

Speaking of this, there is really nothing to talk about below, Aunt Chen thought, no matter how worried she is, she is an outsider after all, even if she is worried, it is not her turn. As for whether to hire housekeeping, who will be hired in the end? Well, the person who pays the money has the right to say, but fortunately in the past two years, because she only does a few hours in the afternoon, Xiao Shen can do most of the housework by herself, so she can still live independently.

Aunt Chen's brief silence caused the smile on Shen Yan's face to fade slowly, he stood up, and stretched out his hand in Aunt Chen's direction, "Aunt Chen, I'm leaving, give me a hug, it's been more than two years Thank you for taking care of me."

Aunt Chen didn't know what to say, she could only come over and hug Shen Yan, and patted him on the back lightly: "Xiao Shen, you are a good boy, I believe you will be fine in the future."

After sending off Aunt Chen, Shen Yan curled up on the sofa, his head and stomach throbbing with pain, he couldn't help it after a while, got up and fumbled for a few stomach medicines from the small medicine box and painkillers, and then swallowed it in one go, wrapped it in a blanket and retracted on the sofa again.

So uncomfortable that he couldn't sleep and didn't want to do anything else, he lay there and began to think about what to do in the next day.

In fact, as early as when Father Shen asked Aunt Chen to change from a full-time job to an hourly job, he already had a premonition that hiring a housekeeper might be a waste of time sooner or later.

In addition, he also thought at the time that he was only blind, and it wasn't that his hands and feet were gone. Instead of being taken care of like a disabled person and relying on others for everything, he might as well learn to be more independent.

Fortunately, it took him more than half a year to get familiar with all the housework little by little: washing and bathing, cooking simple meals, cleaning, going to banks and supermarkets... Now he can do all these things, but he needs to He was much slower than ordinary people and he had to be more careful, but looking back, it was thanks to his perseverance that he would not panic because no one was taking care of him all of a sudden.

There will definitely be no housekeeping in the future. What will be the next step?It is estimated that the cost of living should be cut off.Shen Yan smiled self-deprecatingly, and subconsciously touched the scar on his wrist.

This is not his malicious speculation. Since this year, he has struggled to get his living expenses. When the living expenses were transferred a few times, the woman would call after him, obviously asking if the money was received, but all kinds of complaints It is indispensable, why business is not easy now, and it is not easy to raise children at home, ask him if he is looking for a job or something.

Every time he receives such a call, he is also very annoying. He has thought about it or just forget it. A total of 1500 yuan is given for living expenses, which also includes his disability allowance. Why bother to blame others, but looking back Thinking about it, the money in his hand is too little now, not to mention that a man "doesn't bend his waist for five buckets of rice", and when he can't eat, he should bow his head and bow his head.

Shen Yan now has tens of thousands of dollars in his hands, most of which are given by his aunt, and a small part is the money he earned from dubbing various courseware, but this part is really too little to make ends meet.

Almost all Du Zichen contacted him for the dubbing work, and later on, some people would come to him directly. Although his voice was good, he had no professional training after all, and most of the people who could find him were looking for cheap.

Courseware dubbing is inherently long and earns little money, not to mention his special situation. Before each dubbing, Zichen needs to help read the copy and record it, and then he will mark the recording before starting. This process is not a one-shot process It's troublesome, so after all, it's just a hard work fee.

It's not that he hasn't thought about learning skills to find a job. Last year, his father asked him to attend massage training for blind people. But after a few classes, the teacher told him that if he didn't want his wrists to be disabled, he shouldn't learn any more.

The injury on his wrist made it difficult for him to lift heavy objects, and he didn't dare to play the piano for too long, let alone a blind massage that required wrist and physical strength.

It's a pity that no one believed this at the time. Instead, everyone thought it was an excuse for him to be afraid of suffering. Until later, Father Shen found another so-called friend and introduced him to a massage shop for the blind as an apprentice. Of course, the result was the same. Only then did Father Shen rest his mind.

After much deliberation, Shen Yan sighed, there are so few ways out!Sometimes he even wondered, in the minds of normal people, is it true that blind people really have nothing else to do except give massages?

Thinking that I will be 20 years old soon, I don't want to let others support me for a lifetime, and I can get living expenses right now, it's just that Shen's father's guilt towards him has not been exhausted. He can't go to the street to beg for food, so he has to find a job, and he can't just give up.

Shen Yan planned to discuss with Zichen next week and see what else he could do.

It is not a happy thing to be regarded as a burden that cannot be shaken off by others. If he is still healthy, he must have left home long ago.

If he is still healthy, it is only if...

Thinking about it, Shen Yan just wrapped himself in a blanket and fell asleep on the sofa. He didn't know, but the following reality proved that his calculations for the future were not superfluous at all, and even his pace was a little too slow.

The author has something to say: Although the article is fictitious, in reality there are very few options for blind people to work~~
