ill

After that day, Ayue never came to Muse to work until the Chinese New Year.Without A Yue, A Ze's life is even more like a walking dead. In addition to coping with work, he also has to avoid Yao Feng's harassment.

He doesn't feel coquettish, his skills are not good, and he is too lazy to chat. For some reason, there are many repeat customers looking for him. He wakes up at noon every day and starts working until midnight like a snowball.According to this number of passengers, he felt that he might not live to the end of the contract.

Of all the guests he hated kissing him the most.Every time after such a guest, he would smoke desperately to cleanse the numbing in his mouth.Later, Qi Li told him not to smoke in the afternoon, because customers don't like the smell of cigarettes.He switched to chewing gum, but the gum was too mild to help.

This afternoon, when she was free, Qi Li called him to the office again to talk to him.

"Ah Ze, your business has been very good recently, but you know that sometimes customers will complain." Qi Li's voice when talking to employees has always been gentle like a close sister.

"Yeah." He drank too much at night, and his ears were buzzing during the day.

"So now the company has issued a new regulation, and the recruitment department conducts spot checks to assess the professional level from time to time." Qi Li always speaks very elegantly.

"Oh. Good." Aze thought to himself, the company's regulations should be to talk together in a meeting, why ask him to talk alone?

"So this afternoon, you will be assessed. The content of the assessment is practical. It is in room 707. You go directly at 03:30."

"Who will give me the assessment?" Of course Aze knows what the practical operation here means, it is practical operation.

"Yao Feng will give you the assessment, he is a professional." Qi Li said.

Hearing this, Aze knew what was going on, he was not stupid, he knew that it must be Yao Feng blowing pillow wind at Qi Li to mess with him.He asked Qi Li: "The whole company only evaluates me."

Qi Li said: "You don't have to worry about company management."

"Sister Qi, isn't Yao Feng your boyfriend?" Aze said to Qi Li, he didn't want to be assessed by Yao Feng.

"Who told you he was my boyfriend? How is it possible?"

"Everyone knows that you often give him things. Why do you like him and help him to sleep with me?" Aze couldn't understand why a male publicist who likes to sleep with women would have trouble with him.

Qi Li was stabbed in the heart. She lived in a family that was severely patriarchal since she was a child. She grew up under contempt and beatings, so she always flattered and satisfied the man she loved unconditionally and without a bottom line.However, she happens to always fall in love with the man who demands nothing from her.Qi Li said: "You don't need to worry about my affairs. According to the contract, the company stipulates that you must go. If you fail the assessment, you will be assessed tomorrow."

Hearing this, A Ze knew that Qi Li was going to cooperate with Yao Feng to punish him.He thought for a while, and Qi Li said: "Okay, but Mr. Lai said last time that he will come to me later, and I will ask him if he has such a rule."

"Ah Ze, don't think you'll go up after Mr. Lai slept with you twice. If he really cared about you, would you still be here? Think about it, I'm the one who can really take care of you." Qi Li said Wan Wan sighed, and said after a while: "Forget it, how about this, if sister pays you, you can just accompany him as a guest, okay?"

After hearing this, Aze couldn't help laughing, not a happy smile, but another kind of smile with complicated meanings, Lu Anze's life is so cheap, he has to sleep with the dog. "Sister Qi, you said earlier that it was the company's regulation, so I still have to ask Mr. Lai. Mr. Lai said that I should go to him if I have any difficulties," Aze made up this sentence, and finally fought for himself.Unexpectedly, these words really scare Qi Li. Lai Chuan is too intimidating for people like Qi Li. Before Lai Chuan came to Chuancheng, he never ordered public relations to go to the room. Aze was the first one. Moreover, he was ordered three times and stayed with him all night.So Qi Li was still a little apprehensive.

"Okay, okay, now that you have Miss Backer, I can't help you anymore. Are you just annoying him like this?" referring to Yao Feng.

"I don't bother him, it's just that I dare not touch someone my sister likes, otherwise it will be embarrassing when we meet in the future," Ze said.He is no longer the silly cook apprentice a year ago, let alone the nerdy high school student two years ago.

Yao Feng failed.In order to please him, Qi Li played Aze's video to quench his thirst.

He secretly made a copy of the video with a USB flash drive.

This year, Qi Li gave Aze two days of annual leave during the Chinese New Year. On the morning of New Year's Eve, Aze went to the mall to buy clothes. He worked in the hotel for fifteen months to apply for recruits. Although he only got 20% commission, he also saved nearly 40 Ten thousand.With this bank card in hand, he bought a brand-name jacket and a cashmere sweater for his sister Lu Anfang and his grandmother in the mall, and bought a pair of Nike sportswear for himself.When I went to the children's clothing store to buy clothes for his niece, I saw that the little clothes were very cute, so I bought 8 or 9 pieces in one go, and I also bought some small hats and shoes.

After going around like this for more than an hour, after thinking about it, I bought another set of casual clothes for my brother-in-law and a pair of shoes for my brother-in-law's parents.Bought a whole seven bags of things.

At noon, I went back to the dormitory, took a shower, ate a bowl of instant noodles, and slept.At two o'clock in the afternoon, I changed into the newly bought sportswear, put on a thin padded jacket, sprayed some perfume, and went out with gifts to my sister's house for the New Year.Halfway there, I turned back and took the perfume in my bag.

Aze's elder sister, Lu Anfang, lives in the factory area in the suburbs of City C. The whole family works in the weaving factory: her brother-in-law is a plumber in the factory, her sister is a weaver, her mother-in-law is a cleaner, and her father-in-law is a doorman.Because my brother-in-law’s hometown is in the mountains in the northwest, I don’t go back for the Chinese New Year. The family lives in the rented factory building.

The year before last Aze's sister gave birth to Pingping and no one took care of her, so his grandmother put down the vegetable field at home, killed a few chickens and brought them to City C to raise the baby for his sister, and did not go back to her hometown to follow her brother-in-law during the Chinese New Year. Guo Youping and his family lived together.In this way, there would be no one in his hometown, so Lu Anze had to come to his brother-in-law to celebrate the New Year.Fortunately, the journey is not far, and it only takes three hours to get there by train.

On the phone before, his sister Lu Anfang told him: "Don't buy so many things like last year, make it look like something, just come over for dinner. It doesn't matter how much money you earn, you should save some money for your wife. Who did you spend a lot of money to learn from!" Of course, my sister didn't know that Lu Anze was recruiting in a hotel, and only thought that he was an apprentice in the back kitchen.But this time I saw my younger brother coming over with big bags and small bags, and when I went up, I pinched his arm: "What's the matter with you, didn't you tell you not to buy it?"

Lu Anze pretended to be in pain and said: "You can be cruel to me, if you have the ability to be cruel to brother-in-law."

The house rented by my sister's family has only two bedrooms and one living room, which is almost rough.The father-in-law and mother-in-law usually sleep in the same room, Lu Anfang and grandma take Pingping to sleep in the same room, brother-in-law Guo Youping sleeps in the living room, and the living room is also furnished with a bed, which is half a bedroom and half a dining room.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Guo Youping lying on the bed playing games on his mobile phone. He was the same age as Lu Anfang, not yet 23 years old.He looks upright, and every day besides going to work in the factory, he plays games and plays mobile phones, and when he occasionally hugs his daughter for less than 2 minutes, he gets impatient, so he quickly puts it in anyone's hand and continues to poke the phone.As soon as you play the game, you enter the realm of disrespecting your relatives.

Guo Youping's parents were sitting at the dining table concentrating on watching TV. When they saw someone coming in with big bags and small bags, they went up to take them.Lu Anze picked out the things bought for his brother-in-law's family and handed them to the two elderly people, and handed two bottles of wine and a good cigarette to his elder sister's father-in-law.The two of them took the gift with smiles on their faces; "Oh, brother is too polite, what are you doing with so many things. Sit down and rest." Pulled a chair for him to sit on.

"Sit down, where is my grandma?" Lu Anze heard no sound from the back room.

Lu Anfang said: "Grandma took Pingping out to play. The girl is so wild that she can't stay at home. She just wants to go out and come back in a while. You put your things in the back room and come and help me with the dishes. I can see that your skills have improved. without".

After Lu Anze put away his things, he went to the kitchen with his sister to get some food.He had studied in the back kitchen of a big hotel for several months before, and he was very quick to do things, and it was no problem to fry some home-cooked dishes.My sister helped him, and soon, a table of New Year's Eve dinner was ready.

When the father-in-law and mother-in-law saw that the dishes were ready, they quickly piled up the shells of the melon seeds on the table, and asked Lu An to let the siblings spread the dishes and put the vegetables.At this time, Lu Anze's grandma also came back with Pingping, Lu Anze saw that, hurriedly put down the vegetables in his hands, and went to grandma to hug Pingping.

Grandma Lu is in her early sixties, tall and tall. Although she has many wrinkles, her skin is fair and delicate, her cheeks are red from the cold, and her silver hair is tied in an old-fashioned bun. She is meticulous and fastens with a decades-old hairpin.Wearing the thin down jacket with blue flowers on a white background that her grandson bought her last year, and two navy blue sleeves, she behaved calmly and gently.Looking at Lu Anze up and down carefully, he said, "Little Erzi, why are you losing weight again, why don't you gain weight as a chef?"

Lu Anze hugged Pingping and teased and replied, "I'm getting fat, I can't tell if I wear too much."

Ping Ping was born two months prematurely, which is only thirteen months at full term. He didn't see his uncle for a year and didn't recognize him at all. He looked around in his arms and touched his face.Lu Anze touched her.

Lu Anfang's mother-in-law saw it and said, "Don't you think it's strange, people cry when they come to hug her like a dead mother, but you don't cry when you hug them, you know it belongs to the family."

Lu Anze didn't bother to pay attention to her, he couldn't look away from her flat little face, which was so red and chapped from the cold, but it was still so cute that it made people want to kiss and bite.Lu Anze originally wanted to kiss Pingping, but felt that his mouth was not clean, so he grabbed the back of her hand and rubbed her face vigorously twice.

"This little hand makes me want to bite." Lu Anze said to his grandma while holding that little hand.

"You have eaten since you were a child." His grandma replied to him.

The family sat down to eat the New Year's Eve dinner, and Pingping couldn't sit at the table, so Grandma Lu took her down to play and run around in various rooms. The little thing couldn't walk stably, and she was stumbling around.

Lu Anfang's father-in-law is an alcoholic, with a small round face and a rosacea nose, he would drink slowly with his son for two hours, a bottle of wine just like this.He insisted that Lu Anze also have a drink: "How can a man not drink, he should also practice, and he will not be famous if he doesn't drink." His old wife is also helping: "It's okay for a young man to have a drink." This mother-in-law is fifty Next year, with a short and fat body and an ugly face, it is not a problem with the facial features, but a resentment that seems to have accumulated in his heart, which has spread on his fleshy face for decades, and his eyebrows, eyes, and skin are indescribably unsmooth.

Lu Anfang refused to let her brother drink, she said: "Mom, he is so young, how can he drink, don't let him drink. Otherwise, he will be drunk after half a glass, then I can't move him."

Lu Anze just ate the food with his head down, and didn't speak. He saw her sister's originally fair face was now yellow and black, and her hands were red and swollen with chilblains, and he felt uncomfortable.After quickly eating some vegetables, he went to change his grandma to the table for dinner. His grandma didn't want to ask him to eat more. He said that he ate bread in the car when he came here, and now he was not hungry at all, so he immediately hugged Pingping up Take it to the room.

Lu Anze took Pingping to play in the back room unpacking the clothes and shoes he bought.The little baby sat on the climbing mat and followed his uncle to tear bags and clothes, having a great time.Lu Anfang came over and wanted to change his younger brother to eat, but Lu Anze was unwilling, saying that it was rare for him to be together with Pingping and he wanted to play for a while longer.

An older child took a younger child, and the two played until after eight o'clock in the evening, when the little one fell asleep on his uncle's lap.Lu Anze casually took a small quilt to cover her, just looking at this little niece, he felt that it was really worth it...

The little niece was born prematurely, and it is a blessing to be able to survive.The year before last, when Lu An was pregnant until 30 weeks, she suddenly fainted, and was sent to the hospital to find out that there was a problem with the liver, and the baby had to be taken out.

The treatment fee for adults and the nursing fee for premature babies need at least 35 yuan, or the baby will be given up, and the chances of having another child in the future are extremely small.

When Lu Anfang woke up and heard that the baby could not be kept, she just shed tears in silence, and told Guo Youping not to tell her grandma and younger brother, it was useless, just add someone to cry with her.

Brother-in-law Guo Youping discussed with his parents, secretly called Lu Anze to explain the situation, and asked him if he could find a way to raise some money.Lu Anze asked his brother-in-law how much he could collect, Guo Youping paused for a while and told him that he could raise up to [-] here.

Lu Anze put down the phone and went around to borrow money. He was working as an apprentice in the back kitchen of a hotel at the time, and because of his good personality, he greeted everyone, so he was very popular.But when I borrowed money, I found that everyone just paid two or three hundred out of courtesy, and didn't expect him to pay it back, so they pooled more than 5000.

The lobby manager of the restaurant has always wanted to ask Lu Anze to work in the front hall. He planned to lend him three to five thousand yuan, but when he found out that there was a shortage of 30 yuan, he changed his mind and took the person to Qi Li. He earned 2000 yuan as an introduction fee. .

When Qi Li saw Lu Anze, she looked up and down, asked him to turn around and look again, and said to him in a harmonious voice: "You can borrow money if you want, and 30 yuan will be regarded as an advance salary, but you have to be here with me." work for two years."

Lu Anze said "OK" right away, then asked after a pause, "Are you doing something outrageous?"

Qi Li laughed, this child is so cute and silly, and said: "I will definitely not let you kill and set fire to rest assured! On the contrary, it is a good thing to help others. It is to help others to untangle and relax."

Lu Anze is almost 17 years old, so he roughly understands what it means.The ears are red, and the redness reaches the neck.

Qi Li asked, "Do you understand?"

"Are you sleeping with the girl?" He asked in a false voice.

Qi Li said: "Oh my little brother, you haven't grown all your hair yet, how can you accompany women. Let me arrange for you to accompany men, see if it's okay."

Lu Anze was shocked, there was a gay chef in the back kitchen who would touch him from time to time, he roughly knew that homosexuality exists. "How come I'm not gay," he said, looking straight at Qi Li.

"It doesn't matter, work doesn't matter what you like, it's just work."Qi Li pulled out a cigarette and handed it to Lu Anze, but Lu Anze waved his hand and said no.Qi Li smiled, lit a cigarette for herself, took two puffs, and said softly: "Think carefully, I never force others." After taking a leisurely puff, she continued: "To tell the truth, my sister also wants to help you After all, 30 is not a small amount. There are so many people who want to work in this line of work, and I have to pick and choose from those who come to apply every day. If you work here, I will give you a 20.00% commission. After two years, 70 million It’s easy to earn, think about it, you can’t earn this amount even if you work outside for ten years.”

Lu Anze said that he had to think about it, and left Qi Li's office that smelled of tobacco and perfume, ran to the park diagonally opposite the hotel and ran around the small lake for a few laps.

After running back to the dormitory, I called Guo Youping to ask him what was going on.

Guo Youping said: "Now I can only give up the child. If the child is not taken out for two days, the mother and child will not be able to keep it. I dare not tell An Fang that she may not be a mother in the future, for fear that she will not be able to accept it."

Lu Anze said, "Don't move, I have borrowed the money, just wait."

After hanging up the phone, he ran to Qi Li and said that he agreed, and when will the money be paid.

Qi Li did not show a happy expression, she said: "That's right, 30 is not a small amount after all, and it is not a small amount to anyone. I will give it to you, what will you do if you run away?"

"I won't run, I keep my word."

Qi Li said: "If you don't know how to run today, it doesn't mean you won't run tomorrow. After a while, you get tired of doing it and don't want to do it anymore. If you run away, what should I use to plug the company's book loopholes? I'm also a part-time worker. The money comes from the company. It is a special case made by my sister to see that you have difficulties. I will pay back the money after you run away. I am old and young, and I have no money to pay back. "

After a pause, she continued, "So we need to sign a contract to ensure that you will obey the company's arrangements, that you will not be picky, that you will not resign or run away."

Lu Anze said, "Okay." Now he only thinks about getting money to save his life.

Qi Li said again: "But the contract is just a piece of paper. I can't help you if you run away. There are many people who are in debt these days and are happy outside." She thought of her ex-husband, shook her head, and took a puff of cigarette , then turned around and said to Lu Anze: "So the company stipulates that we have to leave the contact information of your family members, home address, and the school you have attended. You can see if it works. It must be true and effective, because we will verify it."

Lu Anze hesitated for a moment, then wrote down the phone numbers of his sister and brother-in-law, his home address, and the middle school he attended.

Qi Li took the number and immediately called Lu Anfang.Lu Anze wanted to speak, Qi Li waved his hand and nodded to him, meaning to rest assured.

At this time, Lu Anfang was tired from crying, lying on the hospital bed without saying a word, his eyes were yellow.After answering the phone and asking who it was, Qi Li said that she was from the Food and Beverage Department of Chuancheng Dadian and was checking the employee information, and asked her about her relationship with Lu Anze.

"I'm his sister, how is Anze over there, didn't he cause trouble?"

Qi Li said: "Don't worry, Xiao Lu works very hard, and I plan to give him a promotion. I have to ask, did he graduate from high school? That middle school he went to before."

Lu Anfang's voice was hoarse, and he lied to his younger brother, saying that he graduated from high school, and in a certain high school, his younger brother was hardworking and studious, and hoped to take more care of him.In fact, Lu Anze only studied in the first semester of high school and then quit. He didn't have a high school degree at all.

The two hung up the phone, Qi Li looked at Lu Anze very satisfied, and said: "You are honest. There is one last thing, you will be trained here before you start work. The training content is practical. The training process I will give you a video, and I will release the money to you immediately after the video is recorded. You see, others borrow so much money that they have to press the house, and you can just press a video."

The next day Lu Anze sent the money to his brother-in-law Guo Youping.Guo Youping asked him where he got the money. He said he borrowed it from a friend, and the friend he met in the hotel was very rich.Guo Youping was a little envious, and told him: Don't tell your sister that I asked you to borrow the money, or your sister will blame me.We just need to hide Xiaobao's medical expenses from him. "

Lu Anze happened to be afraid that his sister would ask him, so he agreed.But he asked his brother-in-law to send the hospital bill later, and he wanted to see it.Later, Ping Ping spent more than 30 yuan in hospital and stayed in the hospital for 45 days.

After he was discharged from the hospital, Lu Anfang called his grandma and younger brother, saying that she had given birth to a girl, weighing five catties, and the mother and daughter were safe. They named her Guo Pingping.

...

At this time, more than a year has passed, and Lu Anze looked at the little thing on his leg, and it has grown into a villain in peace.

After eating outside, Lu Anfang was busy tidying up and washing. Grandma came over and saw Pingping fell asleep, she gently hugged her to the bed and made arrangements, blocking the side with a pillow.Sitting on the bed, looking at Lu Anze, asked him: "Xiao Er, you seem to have something a little bit lately."

Lu Anze said, "What can I do."

Grandma Lu felt that this little boy was different from before. He used to be ordinary, and when he saw his relatives, he moved closer. Now he seemed to be separated from everyone.Is it because of growing up?

She has always been ashamed of this second son in her heart, and thinking of how wronged she has been here for more than a year, tears flowed out.Get up quickly to close the door.Sitting back on the bed just shed tears.

Lu Anze knew that grandma was a tear-loving person, she would cry for a long time when she saw a beggar passing by the door; she also loved to cry when listening to operas.

He sat on the side and waited for grandma to finish crying, reached out to pinch her shoulders, and wiped away tears.

Grandma whispered to him: "If it weren't for the eldest sister and Pingping, I really wouldn't be able to live in this place for a day. Pingping is like not belonging to their family. She never cares. Her father doesn't talk about it. Young people are ignorant, old couples The two have been hugging for an hour now, without looking at them. The baby is so thin, and she doesn’t buy milk powder to drink, but only eats porridge. Hey, it’s a pity that the eldest sister has a hard life. She gave birth to a baby girl and is busy at home. I can't get a good face."

Lu Anze felt uncomfortable when he heard that, it was too useless for him to have such a wronged life with his sister and grandma.

After Lu Anfang finished washing and cleaning, he also opened the door and came in to talk to his brother.Her mother-in-law sent her out to buy sunflower seeds.Lu Anze told his grandma to go to bed early, and he accompanied his sister to buy sunflower seeds outside.

The two siblings braved the cold wind on New Year's Eve and went to the supermarket. The nearby small shops had already closed, so they had to go to the big supermarket farther away.Lu Anze wanted to take a taxi, but Lu Anfang stopped him and said, "It's just two stops to take a taxi, it's only two steps away, I just want to chat with you, it's not convenient at home."

Lu Anze asked her if she was in good health recently?How many hours do you work in a day?

Lu Anfang said: "Twelve hours a day is normal. If you work overtime, it's normal to work an extra hour or two."

Lu Anze said: "It's too tiring to do this, you can see that your hands are covered with calluses. Why don't you learn a craft, and I'll pay for it."

Lu Anfang said, "I'm old enough to learn any craft."

Lu Anze thought for a while and said, "I think it would be good to learn to be a make-up artist." He thought that the make-up artists hired by nightclubs were all women, who wore masks and earned wages every night by waving their wrists casually.

An Fang said: "Oh, you will be the chef and I will be the makeup artist, two artists in one family."

"I'm serious."

An Fang said: "You are rich now, and the money is decent. Pay back your money."

Anze said, "What are you going to do? You don't have time to accompany Pingping when you do this. You have more time to do technical work. This is too tiring, sister." His sister was diagnosed with liver disease before, so she shouldn't be so tired.Now his face is black and yellow, not like his beautiful sister before.

Speaking of Pingping Lu Anfang was a little moved, but she thought for a while and said: "Hey, now I have to stop for a few months without salary, and I don't guarantee that I will find a job after learning. Your brother-in-law will definitely not agree with me. And we are now A skilled worker earns three or four thousand a month, which may not be available outside. Once you become a master, you won’t be so tired.”

Lu Anze knew that her sister was a strict husband, so it was difficult to say anything.After buying melon seeds, he sent his sister downstairs, took out a bank card from his pocket, and gave it to her sister, saying that there was 2 yuan in it, and asked him to buy more milk powder for Pingping and grandma.He wanted to give more, but he was afraid that his sister would suspect it, so he thought 2 yuan was appropriate.

Why is Lu Anfang willing to accept it? She stuffed the card into her brother's trouser pocket: "I want your money? You can save some money for yourself as a wife. The elder sister has no skills and can't help you." She put her head on his body and smelled it, and asked him with a smile: "Is the stinky boy dating someone? His body smells delicious."

Lu Anze felt uncomfortable, and took a step back.His sister stretched out her hand and pinched his face: "Hey, I'm not allowed to touch now after finding someone."

Lu Anze waited for his sister to let go, opened her mouth and moved her facial muscles, and said, "No, which girl would like me."

Lu Anfang said: "Maybe some girl is blind and fell in love with you." After speaking, he laughed, seeing that the younger brother who misses is getting more and more like a city person, and life seems to be good. I feel relieved.

The two had a heart-to-heart chat downstairs, Lu Anze checked that it was not early, and said that the evening would not be over, and he would find a nearby hotel to stay.His sister insisted that he go back and sleep with Guo Youping.If he had agreed in the past, but now letting him squeeze the bed with a man is more uncomfortable than asking him to sleep with maggots, so he insisted on going out and staying in a fast hotel by himself.His sister knew she couldn't hold him back, so she asked him to wait downstairs, then ran back and got a set of pajamas for him—

"The pajamas I made for you. You soak up oil fumes in the kitchen every day. Go back to the dormitory and change into pajamas to sleep comfortably. Take it to the hotel today and wear it. I've washed it for you."

When Lu Anze went to the hotel, he found that there were many small green dinosaurs printed on the pajamas, and his sister treated him like a child.After Lu Anze changed into it, he looked at himself in childish pajamas in the mirror, and found it very funny.

The next morning, Lu Anze woke up, took a shower, got dressed, sprayed on perfume, went to the supermarket to buy some fruit and milk, and went to his sister's house to pay New Year's greetings, had lunch, and brought the three women in the family: he Grandma, his sister and little niece went to the mall to buy a lot of things, and it was already evening when they came back.

Lu Anze secretly stuffed the bank card under the plain pillow.

On the bullet train back to G city, she sent a message to her sister, saying: It’s stuck under Pingping’s pillow. This is the money I gave Pingping for a week.It will get better and better in the future.
