20 years of spring breeze

Chapter 689 Let's go then
Xiao Liu looked at the time and said, "First, shall we eat?"

Xiaowei looked at his watch, and it turned out that it was already past two thirty and it was three o'clock, and he tossed about for a long time.He touched his stomach: "I don't feel hungry today, why?"

Xiao Liu said: "Nonsense, no one will be hungry after such a big event, it's not that hungry after the event is over."

Xiaowei said: "Okay, let's eat then, are you a treat?"

Xiao Liu tilted his head and looked at Xiao Wei without saying a word.

Xiaowei asked Wang Ziqi: "Ziqi, what do you want to eat?"

Wang Ziqi said: "Anything is fine. For me now, everything is delicious. Do you know what I eat every day there?"

Xiaowei asked: "Are you going back to Brother Long in the afternoon? Don't you take a few days off?"

If you drive away from the area in front of the station, you can't eat here.

Wang Ziqi leaned on the seat in a daze, and said: "I don't know. If I don't go, where should I go? I have no acquaintances or relatives in Fengtian. A few friends are all doing this, and there is no place to stay. Okay. Brother Long is a nice guy, he treats us well, he doesn’t deduct money and doesn’t beat or scold him.”

Xiao Liu said, "Didn't you ever think about doing something else? How long have you been doing this?"

Wang Ziqi said: "What do you do? I worked as a waiter. Big restaurants don't want it. Small restaurants eat leftovers and sleep on stools. I pay 300 yuan a month for getting up early and going late. To sell clothes? In summer, it's drying in the winter and freezing in winter. It costs more than 1000 yuan a month to rent a house." Paying water and electricity bills and taking the car, you have to talk to all kinds of people non-stop every day, you have to laugh when you are beaten and scolded, you have to do something wrong, and you have to deduct money if you want to. What else can you do? "

Xiao Liu kept quiet. In this era, people have just moved from state-run to individual. Those who are unemployed can circle Fengtian several times with their hands. Private businesses are basically family-style operations, and they rarely need outside labor. Those who need people There are more restaurants and shops, and the better places are taken up by locals or acquaintances. It is really hard work for foreigners.

This is still Fengtian, the largest city in Northeast China. The smaller cities below have greater competition and lower wages. There is no way. This is the social reality.

Xiaowei babbled and said, "Forget it, if you want to come out, you can also go to my place. Anyway, I'm going to open a few stores, and I'm not short of you. The waiter in the restaurant takes care of food and housing. Money, you can have 800 yuan a month, why not?"

Wang Ziqi asked: "You said they all went to your place, right?"

Xiaowei said: "Milia, Shi Xiaoyan, and Yan Xiaoqi are all with me." Looking at the side of the road, he turned the steering wheel and stopped the car.

Wang Ziqi said: "I'm going back to Brother Long today, I have to get a good night's sleep, and I'll go see them tomorrow after I'm done, okay?"

Xiaowei said: "Okay, you can do whatever you want. Let's eat here, let's eat first."

Xiao Liu lowered his head and looked out, and said, "Sanqianli Barbecue, it's ok, do you care if you're full?"

Xiaowei got out of the car and closed the door, Xiao Liu got out of the car with a smile, and said, "Sister, come on, let's get this dirty."

After locking the car door, the three of them went into the restaurant, Xiaowei patted his legs: "Damn, I forgot, the sisters didn't eat anything, I forgot to buy something for them to eat in the car, this will make Anton starve Already?"

Wang Ziqi glanced at Xiaowei, with an inexplicable expression in her eyes, Xiao Liu said: "Okay, they are not stupid, they won't buy food in the car when they are hungry?"

Xiaowei sighed, and the three found seats to sit down. Xiaowei said, "The two of them don't know how to buy anything, and they just kept starving until Anton. Do you believe it?"

Xiao Liu asked, "Why?"

Xiaowei was silent for a while, and said: "I can't bear it. The children who came out of the countryside have been tortured for a few months for no reason, and they only got 2000 yuan in total. How expensive are the things on the train?"

Wang Ziqi said: "Yes, if I first came out, I would not be willing."

Xiao Liu sighed and said, "You should be killed, these people should be killed."

The waiter who came over with the menu was startled by Xiao Liu's words, glanced at him and quietly turned to Xiao Wei: "Sir, order."

Xiaowei handed the recipe to Wang Ziqi and said, "You can order, you can order whatever you want, you are welcome."

Xiao Liu said: "Order what you want, what you have, what you like, anything except barbecued rice cakes and kimchi. Go ahead. Order the same first, and turn on the stove."

The waiter is laying out the surrounding dishes. Korean-style restaurants have this kind of surrounding dishes. There are six to nine small dishes. There are kimchi, peanuts, salted vegetables, rice cakes, and everything in them. After hearing what Xiao Liu said, look at Xiaowei. Xiaowei smiled He said, "Okay, let's go, listen to him."

Wang Ziqi handed the unopened menu to the waiter and said, "I want a bowl of cold noodles."

Xiaowei said: "Don't eat cold noodles, eat barbecue first, and get some fruit, right? Get some."

Wang Ziqi whispered: "I want to eat cold noodles, so I like it."

Xiaowei said: "It's been a few days since I haven't eaten and slept well. Eat something good. If you want to eat cold noodles tomorrow, come here again. There are things everywhere."

Wang Ziqi nodded, lowered her head and fiddled with the chopsticks, but there was a warm current in her heart. It had been many years since no one cared about her so casually. This feeling was so strange, but very kind, and a little touching.

……

On the train to Anton, there were two girls lying on the sleeper berth. Every time the selling truck passed by, the two girls swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva at the same time, but they didn't even look at it.They held their bags, which contained 2000 yuan in exchange for these nightmare-like days.Unknowingly, tears flowed down, flowing quietly.

……

After eating, Xiaowei, Xiaoliu and Wang Ziqi came out and returned to the car. Wang Ziqi hiccupped several times and blushed suddenly.

Xiao Liu lit a cigarette and said, "Barbecue is good to eat once in a while, but it's made by Koreans, and the taste is really different."

Xiaowei also lit a cigarette and asked, "Where are you going? Ziqi, take you to Brother Long?"

Wang Ziqi thought for a while and said: "Let's go to Fifth Avenue. It's okay to go back. I'll look for it. I'll go back in the evening. You will pick me up tomorrow when it's over. I won't go to work for a few days."

Xiaowei looked at the rearview mirror and said, "Okay, let's go. Don't worry, I will give you a bonus if I find someone."

Xiaowei drove the car to Shiyiwei, and the three of them changed Taiwan to Dafa and went straight to Fifth Avenue.Because there are some cars for personal use, the license plates are already installed at this moment.

When he came to Shengli, Xiaowei parked his car at the corner of an intersection, just in time to see the paging store from an angle.

A few people in their 40s and 20s were playing poker together at the entrance of the canteen. There was a lot of noise and excitement. A young man in his [-]s stood by and watched, but he didn't see the shopkeeper.
