Boys always feel poor

Chapter 16

The recruiter was a snack bar, which was small and only paid 2200 yuan a month, but because of this, the boss had no objection knowing that Lin Yi was a minor with no work experience.After asking for the address of the store and making an appointment to visit the store, she hung up the phone, and Lin Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although 2200 yuan is much less than he expected, Lin Yi also knows that for him, it is difficult to find a more formal job, and the salary level of such a small shop is about the same. Anyway, it is better than nothing , Earning less now will always increase slowly in the future.

The snack bar is run by a young couple in their 30s. Although the shop is small, it has a good location. It is near the city's No. [-] High School. There are usually no vacancies in the shop during meal times.Originally, the boss was in charge of cooking, and the lady boss was in charge of all other chores plus the cashier. She barely managed to come here, but she didn't expect the lady boss to suddenly fall ill. Although her condition is under control now, the condition of the lady boss has become worse. It was so bad that he thought about recruiting a waiter, and the proprietress was finally free to collect cash and take care of her body.

Lin Yi chatted with the boss for a while, talked about the working hours and work content, and someone came to the shop, so he hurriedly agreed to come to try the job the next day, and Lin Yi left.

In any case, he finally had a job, and Lin Yi felt that the uneasiness in his heart had slightly dissipated.He hummed an out-of-tune song and was always on some unfamiliar roads. He planned to go to the market yesterday afternoon and buy some delicious food to reward Luo Qi who was working on his first day.

As he was walking, Lin Yi's cell phone rang. He was stunned for a moment before realizing that it was his cell phone. He took it out and saw that it was Fu Man's name, and hurriedly pressed the answer button.

As the lunch break approached, Fu Man was worried about the two children, so she wanted to take the two of them to have dinner. When she heard that Luo Qi had found a job and started work, she was a little surprised, so she had to ask Lin Yi herself, the siblings Let's have lunch together.

Fu Manyue's place was near their school, so Lin Yi turned around and found that Fu Manyue's shop was next to the snack bar he was interviewing for. He stood at the door and smiled, and pushed door in.

It was the restaurant, and the shop was overcrowded. Lin Yi stood at the door and watched for a long time before finding Fu Man who was sitting at a small table in the corner, and hurried over.

Fu Man was lowering her head and fiddling with her mobile phone carelessly. When she heard the voice, she raised her head and showed a bright smile to Lin Yi, saying: "There are too many people. I was afraid that he would be slow, so I ordered two orders at random. The set meal, you can choose whichever you like later.”

Lin Yi scratched her hair, smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, Sister Manman, as you know, I'm not picky eater, I like to eat anything."

Fu Man laughed, rolled his eyes, picked up a bag from the chair beside him, and handed it to Lin Yi from the table: "This is for you."

Lin Yi stared at the heavy-looking bag and was stunned: "What is this?"

"I asked my colleague who taught the first year of high school for a set of the latest textbooks." Fu Manwen said softly, "Although whether you read or not depends on the situation in the future, it is always right to read books in your free time."

Lin Yi unconsciously stretched out his hand and opened the bag, revealing the brand new books inside. He reached out and flipped through it, his eyes felt a little sore for no reason.He remembered the set of textbooks left to the young female teacher, and remembered that the female teacher told him that she would help him keep it well, and hoped to see him go back a year later.

Unexpectedly, in less than a month, he had to leave the city where he grew up, and then came here to start a life that he never thought of.He didn't know if he would have the chance to go back to school in the future, but he knew that it would probably be impossible for him to go back to G city and fulfill the one-year agreement with the head teacher.

This is probably life, no matter how you plan and work hard, it will always change everything beyond recognition due to unexpected reasons.However, this change is good and sometimes bad, until the end, who knows?

At least it looks like it should be good now, right?

When the waiter brought the food, Lin Yi came back to his senses as if he had woken up, carefully put the books away, put them on the chair beside him, and smiled at the waiter.The waiter was a young girl who also looked very young. She was a little embarrassed to be smiled by such a handsome young man of similar age. She put down her things and left in a hurry.

Lin Yi glanced at the waiter's back in a daze, then turned her head and saw Fu Man looking at her with a funny face, her eyes widened in surprise: "Sister Manman, what's wrong?"

Fu Man smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing, I just think it's good to be young."

Fu Man is 12 years older than Lin Yi, but she is probably born beautiful, or maybe she has been taken care of, or, because of her peaceful mind, in Lin Yi's mind, this cousin is only in her early twenties, so he He shook his head seriously, expressing his disapproval of Fu Man's words.

Seeing Lin Yi's serious look, Fu Man couldn't help laughing, put out his hand to put the set meal in front of Lin Yi, and handed him a pair of chopsticks: "Come on, eat first, young man."

Fu Man ordered two of the simplest set meals in the store, including rice, vegetables, and soup, plus a plate of small pickles. One set only cost more than ten yuan.In Fu Man's eyes, it might be just eating casually to fill his stomach, but in Lin Yi's eyes, the ten yuan is already extravagant, so he lowered his head and ate very seriously.

Fu Man, however, seemed to have a poor appetite. He managed to eat half a bowl of rice and some soup, then put down his chopsticks, lowered his head and began to fiddle with his phone.

After eating for a while, Lin Yi looked up and saw that Fu Man seemed to be chatting with someone on WeChat, so he asked casually, "Is it Brother Bai Wei?"

The corners of Fu Man's lips raised unconsciously, and he nodded: "Well, he asked me if I had lunch."

Holding the chopsticks, Lin Yi looked at Fu Man's expression curiously.Although Fu Man has always given him the impression of being a gentle and kind sister, he can feel that when facing Bai Wei, she is more gentle, and her whole body exudes a sense of happiness bathed in love .

Lin Yi tilted his head, blinked his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Sister Manman, will you and Brother Bai Wei get married?"

Fu Man froze for a moment, her cheeks blushed quickly, she reached out and tapped Lin Yi on the head: "Hurry up and eat your food."

"Oh." Lin Yi stuck out his tongue. He realized that Fu Man was actually shy, so he shut his mouth clearly, but he couldn't help but think in his heart that Sister Manman and Brother Bai Wei are such good people , Their relationship is so good, and they are probably not far away from getting married, so he must make good money and give a big gift to Sister Manman when she gets married in the future.

Lin Yi ate up one and a half sets of meals by himself, and talked to Fu Man while leaning on a chair to digest.He talked about how he found a job. Fu Man was obviously worried about this little cousin who was about the same age as his student, but after thinking about it, he was not the same as his students who grew up with the love and care of their parents. Likewise, he could only nod his head, and asked a few more words.

While the two were talking, a hurried figure suddenly rushed past the dining table, knocked off the tissue box on the side, and the napkins scattered all over the floor.Lin Yi lowered his head for a glance, and couldn't help but look at the culprit, only to realize that the figure in colorful overalls and hat looked familiar. He opened his mouth and whispered, "Luo Qi?"

Luo Qi obviously didn't have the time to care about what he just dropped. He hastily said sorry, and before he had time to turn around, he rushed to the lady boss at the cash register.The proprietress handed Luo Qi the takeaway that had already been packed with a displeased face, and said, "How long has it been since you came here? It doesn't matter if you are late and the customer complains, and if you are dissatisfied with my family, don't order it in the future." Who owns my meal?"

With a smile on his face, Luo Qi apologized earnestly, and then hurried away with his meal. He didn't see a single acquaintance of his in the shop from the beginning to the end.

Lin Yi stood still and watched Luo Qi walk away, then squatted down and picked up the tissue box and napkins on the ground, put them on the table, and didn't speak for a long time.

Fu Man reached out and patted him: "Hey, what's the matter? That was Xiao Luo just now?"

Lin Yi nodded, couldn't help but glanced at the door where Luo Qi disappeared just now, and sighed softly.Before, he just thought about the need to run back and forth to deliver the food, so it was hard work. It suddenly occurred to him just now that he still needs to deal with all kinds of people. Just complaining like this lady boss is nothing, and the worse situation , it is always possible to encounter it, right?

Fu Man looked back at the proprietress, and said warmly: "Actually, no matter what industry or job, in addition to the physical labor, you will also encounter various situations that you find unacceptable. Especially in the service industry, You may meet all kinds of difficult customers. It’s like Xiaoluo’s food delivery, and it’s the same with you starting to be a waiter tomorrow. Therefore, you don’t need to think so much, and never feel that you are really inferior to anyone else, rely on your ability When eating, you deserve to be respected for your hard work. If you don’t respect others, you don’t have to care about his attitude at all.”

Lin Yi raised his head, met Fu Man's gentle gaze, and nodded, thinking in his heart that after dinner, he would go to the market to buy more delicious food, so that he could make up for Luo Qi.
