After kissing his father, the cub shrank into the bed and hid himself.
Xie Hui patted him on the back lightly, said good night and closed his eyes to sleep.
The next day, Xie got up very early, and it was just dawn when he got up. After washing up, he changed his clothes and saw Xie Chu lying on the bed sleeping dead, so he asked Lao Xie to take care of him.
He went out and headed towards the construction site he saw yesterday.
Although it was early, many people could be seen along the way. Xie Hui was stopped at the gate of the construction site. The old man guarding the gate saw that he was unfamiliar, so he started to question him.
"Who are you, who are you looking for? What are you here for?"
"Master, I saw the recruitment notice posted on your door, so I want to ask if you are still recruiting?"
When Lao Li, who came over early in the morning, heard this, he hurried over and stared at Xie Hui.
"You want to come here to do something? Can your body carry those things?"
"Don't worry, I have strength now."
Xie Hui is very clear that in this kind of construction site, everything else is empty, strength is the most important thing. After finishing speaking, he took out a cigarette from his clothes, handed it to him, and smiled at Lao Li.
"The salary is settled every day, two hundred yuan a day, why don't you come and try it for a day?"
There is indeed a shortage of people in this construction site. Although Lao Li thinks that the young man here looks a little thin, he can make do with it.
Xie Hui heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, but after thinking of the cub at home and smiling at Lao Li, he felt that this matter could not be kept a secret.
"Boss, I have a three-year-old child at home, can I take him with me? I promise he will be good and won't make trouble or cry."
As soon as Lao Li heard this, he frowned tightly. A child over three years old was brought to their construction site? What kind of joke is this, the money he has worked hard for a year is not enough to pay for it.
"No, this won't work, you should go to other places to have a look. How old are you bringing the child to the construction site? Can't you leave the child at home and let your wife take it?"
What the boss said was also expected by Xie Hui. The construction site is indeed dangerous, and it is not suitable to bring a child over three years old.
"I divorced the child's mother, and now the child is being taken care of by me. There is really nothing I can do when I just came out to work. The boss is sorry to bother you."
After Lao Li heard what Xie Hui said, he thought that it was not easy for a man like him to bring up a child, but anyone with a slightly higher education level would not come to their construction site to find work.
"Hey, don't go, let's say yes first, if your child can stay in my office in peace, then I will let you do it. Run around once, and the father and son will go away together!"
Xie Hui, who was already looking for other jobs, suddenly heard the boss's words, turned around abruptly, and said:
"Thank you, I promise that my son is very good, and the situation you are worried about will never happen."
"When will you come over and start working?"
"Boss, what time do you start here? I can start today."
Hearing what he said, Lao Li raised his wrist and glanced at the time displayed on his watch.
"It's six o'clock now, try to come here before seven thirty."
After agreeing on a time, Xie Hui turned around and walked out. Lao Li looked at his back and beat his head after a while.
The guard at the gate came out with a thermos and reminded:
"Old Li, you are not following the rules."
Lao Li himself was annoyed after he finished speaking, but now he heard the old man say it, and heaved a long sigh.
"Is there anything I can do about the rules? That man should be a rural person. He wants to make some money while the child is still young. If he can do things without being affected by the child, he can let the child stay in my office."
The old man took a sip of water, shook his head helplessly and went back to his place to sit, and asked Lao Li to eat the buns he just bought.
There are indeed quite a lot of unruly people in this construction site. Earlier, Lao Li recruited a man with only one arm, and today he hired a man with a child.
On the way back to the small hotel, Xie Hui bought a few steamed buns and tea eggs from the breakfast shop. He saw a bookstore by the side of the road and bought two picture books, spending half of his small savings.
"Chu Chu, get up, hurry up and go out with Dad."
Just now when he walked in, Xie Hui looked at the cub who was still sleeping on the bed, so he yelled, and gave a breakfast he bought to Lao Xie who lives next door.
Hearing his father calling him, Xie Chu opened his eyes in a daze. After sitting up, he stretched out his hand and rubbed vigorously. When Xie Hui walked in, he stretched out his hand towards Xie Hui.
"Daddy give me a hug..."
Xie Hui put the breakfast on the table, walked over and hugged him who was squinting in his arms. Having taken care of so many children, he changed the clothes for this cub with ease.
After changing his clothes, Xie Chu almost woke up, and went to brush his teeth with a stool.
After washing, he held a bun, took a big bite, and began to chew hard.
Seeing his bulging cheeks, Xie Hui stretched out his hand to poke gently, and said in a low voice:
"Eat faster, the place we saw yesterday, my father has already agreed to go there today, and I will go to work there for a while."
"OK."
Xie Chu agreed vaguely, and then wanted to stuff steamed stuffed buns into his mouth. After eating, he took a sip of water, took his things and walked out with his father.
When they were leaving the small hotel, they heard the proprietress greet them, saying that it was Lao Xie who had extended the room fee for another week.
When he arrived at the construction site, Xie Hui first took his son to meet that old Li. Lao Li handed him a safety helmet and a pair of gloves, and seeing the cute-looking child holding two books behind him, he waved to Xie Chu.
"come over."
On the way here, Xie Hui told the child that when he went to work by himself, he needed to stay in this place, be good and not disturb others, and read a book.
"Hi uncle, my name is Xie Chu."
Xie Chu was very courageous, and took a step forward to tell Lao Li his name.
"Okay, you just sit on that chair, okay? If you're sleepy, you can find a place to lie down and sleep for a while. The bathroom is over there. Anyway, you are not allowed to go out of this door."
When Lao Li thanked Hui Hui for putting on his helmet and gloves, he squatted in front of the child and greeted him. It was no joke at their construction site.
"Okay uncle, I see."
Xie Chu agreed like a little adult, Lao Li saw how he agreed in a childlike voice, rubbed his head, and turned to greet Xie Hui.
"Come on, let me tell you what you are going to do today."
