"Supervisor Chen …"
Knowing that he still wanted to say something, that Supervisor Chen waved his hand and walked away without even looking back: "You should go and collect the wages. You won't need to spend the afternoon."
The afternoon sun was white and the building site was hot without any shelter. Beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead and his clothes were all soaked. He twisted his fingers and put them in his mouth to bite his nails.
All these years, she had developed this habit. Every time she was anxious, every time she was helpless, every time she was afraid or at a loss, she would bite her nails. The nails on her thumbs had already been bitten into a bare piece; they were very ugly.
However, her hand was no longer the same hand that was previously unstained by the sun and spring water. There were complicated scars on the palm and the back of her hand would be cracked in winter. Her hands, which used to play the piano, were now on a new day. The sun soaked in the cold water, the brick cement, will never return to the white exquisite of the past.
He remembered that Meng Shaoting had mocked her before, saying that she was a young miss who didn't differentiate between the four limbs at all and that only death awaited her when she got divorced. But now, she was still alive and well.
He looked at his hands and smiled. He shook his head and stopped himself from thinking. Those things were all over. It was all over!
She packed her things, the kettle was brought from home, to be taken away, the work clothes and safety helmet were issued from the construction site and to be left behind. In fact, she did not intentionally do not wear the safety helmet, but the one that was given to her was too big, the overseer deliberately made it difficult for her so that she was not able to change it.
However, he didn't expect to lose his job because of this. Zhi Mo smiled, paid the salary, and walked home with his head lowered.
She didn't even look at the sympathetic or entertaining gazes. She just lowered her head and walked home through the shade of the wall.
When he returned home, his mother was still washing his clothes in the water room. He placed everything on the table to prepare to help, but once he entered, he frowned. The clothes in his hands dropped onto the plate filled with water, causing it to splash everywhere.
Zhi Zhi clenched her teeth and casually wiped it away. She maintained her faint smile as she said, "Mom, you should go and rest. I'll wash …"
"Why did you come back so early?" It's not time to get off work yet! " Song Rumei's eyes were staring fixedly at his daughter. Seeing that she had anxiously lowered her eyes and did not dare to look at him, he could not help but feel as if her heart was on fire. She took a step forward and grabbed onto her ear, "Did you do something unclean again? Ah? Say it! Why are you so shameless? Fu Jingzhi, are you ashamed of yourself … "
"No, Mom, no, I didn't do anything because I couldn't do the work there and was fired …"
Song Rumei's hand that was grabbing her ear slowly loosened. Her eyes that were wrapped in wrinkles stared at her with disbelief: "What kind of job is it that you can't do?"
"It's to be a mason, I won't …" He mumbled, not daring to speak the truth. Phase.
Song Rumei stared at her for a while longer before letting out a long sigh of relief. "If you can't do it, then I won't do it, I originally didn't want you to do those dirty jobs …"
"Mom …" , on the other hand, coldly turned his head and continued to wash the thick layer of clothes. "There are so many men over there, if you want to seduce them, you might as well not do it. It's better to just earn less money than to let your reputation continue to deteriorate!"
She looked at her mother in a daze, as if someone had thrown her into an ice cave. Her petite body was leaning against the pool, her thin shoulder blades were erect, her hair was white, and her clothes were tattered. Little mother?
Although her mother had been bedridden all these years, her life had always been superior. Now, because of her, she had to live such a hard life. As she thought about it, her hatred towards her and the grievances in her heart had all dispersed.
What else did he hate? Dad is not here, luckily there is still mother, home or not, has not dispersed, know you should be content.
His mother had been looking for a job for the entire week and had even sent out a few rough resumes, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean. His mother had even worn reading glasses when she was free, and started looking through the newspapers to find out about the recruitment news; if they found out that they were unable to find a job, their livelihood would become a problem.
As long as she saw her, she could think of all the things she had done. Thinking of how she had angered Regal to death, Song Rumei did not want to see her, but she could do nothing about it, as if she knew of her current condition and her terrible reputation. Which good family would be willing to marry her?
But if she really had to find out about marrying those unarmed old men, Song Rumei was unwilling from the bottom of her heart. After all, she was still legal and proper's daughter, and no matter what the conditions were, she would at least be a righteous family. She had done his best.
She leaned on the reclining chair, took out her glasses, and looked at her with an indifferent gaze: "You don't have to be picky about it. According to what I said, the delivery job that you saw the day before yesterday was not bad, and there are still many acquaintances, there might be people who are willing to marry you!"
"Mom …" They only recruit men for that job. " Zhi frowned. Because the business was too good and the workload was too heavy, the restaurant that was quite famous only hired male delivery workers. She had tried it before, but they didn't want her.
"Men can do it, you can do it too! It's already like this, what are you still picking for! I think you don't want to go out to work at all. If that's the case, you might as well agree to that Foreman Sun's request to marry you back! to avoid getting in my way! "
Ever since Song Rumei had returned to her home country, her temper had become irritable and irritable, especially when facing someone who knew everything, there was simply no reason at all.
Zhi Xin's eyes reddened and he lowered his head even deeper. His chin was pressed against the pale white T-shirt. He lightly nodded and forcefully held back his tears. "Mom, don't be angry. Your health is not good. The doctor said that he won't let you lose your temper. I'll go to that restaurant later …"
Song Rumei saw that Zhi Zun was full of fire, she turned his head and pressed the fan open. After blowing for two minutes, she quickly turned it off, to save energy, Zhi Zun's second hand fan was almost off. It only blew for a few minutes at noon when it was the hottest time.
"Why aren't you cooking? Why are you standing here?" Don't put on such a pitiful appearance, just looking at it makes people feel disgusted! I'm not like those flies! "
"Mom, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you …" She carefully looked at her mother, who was irritable and easily angered, and felt no hatred in her heart, but only pain in her heart.
If my father knew that my mother led such a life, my mother would be very sad to see her age.
There was no mirror in the house, so Song Rumei was unwilling to look in the mirror again. Furthermore, she was not allowed to look in the mirror again. It was as if they were playing a game together. A man would smash two broken mirrors on both sides of his house. Since that day, he knew that he had never looked in a mirror again. She had given him a long haircut to save him a lot of trouble.
What do I want to eat? I want to eat a big meal, I want to eat a cake from a five-star hotel, you want to buy it for me? " Song Ru laughed. Her old and haggard face could no longer be described as beautiful. A man's wind. "Looks like he's gone.
She lowered her head, her eyelashes quivering as she asked, "Mom, can I buy it for you when I'm paid for work?"
"I don't have that kind of life!" Song Rumei coldly snorted: "Go cook. Remember to use up all of the oil. Save it, and cook a few more meals."
"Sigh, I know." He turned around and walked towards the simple kitchen that was built at the end of the corridor. The moment he pushed open the door, golden sunlight shone down from between the trees. He stood there silently for a while, wiping his eyes with his arm, then walked into the kitchen that looked like a steamer.
After having dinner with her mother, cleaning up the kitchen, Zhi Zhi took advantage of her nap time to go to the bedroom to clean herself, change into clean clothes, then went out on the bus for five stops, then got off the bus and walked for ten minutes to the Chinese restaurant.
"Third Young Master, how about this?" The slightly bent man respectfully spoke and pointed at the woman standing five meters away from the two of them.
The person sitting on the sofa had a pair of black, bright eyes and soft, light golden hair that tightly wrapped around his handsome face. However, there was a trace of hostility in the end of his long, narrow, and delicate eyes, indicating that this handsome man in front of him was definitely not a kind person.
