Chapter 192 What’s wrong with being poor?
Friendship Store does not have the frightening and crazy flow of people in department stores. The people coming and going here are neatly dressed and walk in and out with their heads held high, pretending to be superior to others. But the people around him also followed the same trick and looked up with envy.
The doors and windows here are bright, and when the door is opened or closed, it will touch the bell, making a crisp sound, and there is a faint fragrance of roses under your nose. The counters and shelves are made of high-grade brown wood, and the floor is also covered with a floor of the same color.
This is also the existence that department store salespeople look up to.
A salesperson was mopping the floor with a mop. When he saw a few people coming in, he slapped their feet and cursed: "Don't you know how to come in wearing leather shoes? Cotton shoes will step on the mud. Doesn't this increase our workload? You are responsible for sending hair Salary?”
Uncle Fang, Aunt Fang and even Fang Hongye didn’t know how to release their feet. The little ones grabbed the adults’ clothes and hid behind them timidly.
The sales clerks and customers all raised their heads when they heard the noise, and then went about their business as if they didn't see anyone, with obvious disdain in their expressions, which made everyone in the Fang family quite embarrassed.
"Zhixia, forget it, let's just come in and take a look. Things here are expensive and you need foreign exchange coupons," Aunt Fang whispered in An Zhixia's ear: "Even if we bought something here, we wouldn't be willing to use it. "
An Zhixia smiled, looked at a few people and said: "This place is open for business only for people to come in. There is no charge for taking a look, so why are they divided into three, six or nine? Even if there are goods that require foreign exchange coupons, there are still some high-priced goods." ?
If the salesperson doesn't treat us like other customers, with a face that wants us to get out of here, then it would be better to just hang a sign at the door saying that foreigners, rich and distinguished people are invited to come in, and others are not allowed to pass, I will Let’s see if this place will be closed tomorrow! "
One sentence made everyone in the store feel refreshed.
"Little comrade, what are you talking about? Aren't we busy? Just look at it, can we kick you out? Our colleagues have a lot of work and are irritable. After a few words, are you going to get on the line?" The sales clerk frowned and said displeasedly, "Don't blame yourself for being poor. Who doesn't have a poor relative at home? Society is better now. As long as you have ambition, you can't get ahead anywhere you go. You don't have to come to us to succeed." prestige!"
"That's not true. The things here are not something you can afford," a woman wearing a woolen rabbit-collar coat with her hair **** sneered and said softly, "You come here to embarrass yourself, how can you rely on others? Just take a look. It’s free of charge, but you come in with dirt, and you guys don’t have to waste any time mopping the floor? I don’t know if you have any biting bugs on you, and you have to spray some insect repellent, that’s troublesome.”
An Zhixia felt that Fang Lixi and Fang Songyan were pulling her harder. She looked down and saw the two little guys hiding behind her with their heads lowered. Their whole bodies were filled with complex emotions that she could not fully understand.
She slightly closed her eyelids. The two older children of the Fang family had lived in Kyoto. Even if they had been away for four years, they would not be as timid as the other children. The only thing that can be explained is that they know this rabbit-collared woman, and what caused their reaction must be a close relationship.
Looking at Fang Lixi's small gesture of forbearing to peek, she suddenly thought of her sister-in-law at the entrance of the house.
An Zhixia looked at the woman. Her eyebrows were exquisite, with the Shanghai retro style on TV, but her eyebrows were too thin, the corners of her eyes were raised, the corners of her lips were flat, her cheekbones were slightly high, and a mean spirit overflowed from every pore. . But upon closer inspection, the three children do look a bit like her.
She chuckled and took off her hat, revealing her pure face. She was satisfied to see the woman's jealous face, "The friendship store is run by the state. The setting of foreign exchange coupons is just to facilitate the purchase of foreign friends, but there are never any restrictions. The entry of Chinese people. We, Xia Hua, are ordinary people. We don’t have a lot of money. We have a job and we are superior to others. We can use our nostrils to show others. Don’t you know that your nostrils are too big and have many nose hairs, which makes you ugly? "
Without giving anyone a chance to talk back, she continued: "Oh, you have to work diligently to get a salary from the state. How can you enjoy high wages and complain about your life at the same time? Without us creating jobs for you, There is no need for cleaners in the store, so where can you make money?
Hehe, no wonder you can only be a cleaner. You are clumsy, resentful, and your brain is not bright enough. There is no mud on your feet when you wear leather shoes? If you want people's feet to be cleaner, why don't you put a blanket at the door for people to remove the mud? "
The cleaner's face turned red, "You don't want others to look down on you, you, don't you also look down on the cleaners?"
"Wrong, as long as working people earn money by working hard, they are worthy of respect. But you didn't respect us from the beginning, so why should we respect you if we are mentally ill?" After saying that, An Zhixia looked at the supervisor, Her eyes stopped for a moment on the work badge hanging around his neck. Although it was ten meters away, she could still see it very clearly: "Director Weng, right? My sister-in-law and I are both regular workers in the city. We have a car and a house at home, but we are missing." My uncle and aunt are from Jiangzhou. Yes, they are farmers. They work in the fields to make a living. The happiest time of the year, apart from the Chinese New Year, is when they pay the public rations.
The food that we worked hard for for a year came into the granary without any concern and was then distributed to our hands. Why? Because they have made real contributions to the country's solution to the people's hunger and hunger problem, they are proud, they are proud!
When Mr. Weng received the food supply every month, did you ever think that it was the generosity of the farmer brothers that allowed you to have white skin and tender flesh? If they deduct a few kilograms of grain from you and exchange it for money, where can you not live happily?
At this moment, you are pointing your nose at them and saying it is a mistake to be poor? Oh, who in the whole country is not proud of this? What’s wrong with being poor? Having no money can corrode your true heart. What’s wrong with serving the country and the people wholeheartedly and working hard! "
Director Weng was also blocked and couldn't say a word. He secretly said that he was a little guard, and he could turn a black man into a white man. She could only put on a smile and said, "Comrades, please take a look at them. Xiao Zhao, come and entertain us."
The salesperson who was named immediately came over without daring to look at An Zhixia, and led them to the counter with a smile.
The woman with the rabbit collar sneered, "What did I think? It turned out to be just a little guy using chicken feathers as a sword, trying to show off his heroism. Ha, Sister Weng, I guess she was trying to show off her power in front of those poor relatives. However, they are using us as a raft.
In other words, if you had a good temper, I would have kicked him out with a broom. "
