Chapter 533: Reborn Shi Donglei [3]

In the early morning, Shi Donglei hit Shi Yu with an arm to wake him up.

Looking at his little sister who was still sleeping soundly with a rosy face, Shi Donglei lovingly put her snow-white arms exposed outside the quilt into the quilt, quietly got up, put on his clothes, opened the door and went to the outer room.

The sky outside was just getting bright, and the blue morning light shone into the outer room through the glass windows and plastic sheets. Li Xiufang had already gotten up and was clearing ashes from the stove, preparing to make breakfast.

"Son, why are you getting up so early? You work in the city and get up early and go to bed late. It's not easy to have a few days off, why don't you take a good rest and take care of your body! Go back and take a nap, a nap is the best!"

Li Xiufang scooped out a handful of ashes, swept the remaining ashes into the stove pit, stood up and said to Shi Donglei.

Shi Donglei stretched himself, yawned and said, "Mom, I can't sleep. Getting up in the morning to exercise more and breathe some fresh air is good for your body. I was always inactive when I was working in Qindu, and my body is almost rusted. Now is a good time to move around."

He looked at the firewood pile in the hut and saw only some broken firewood left. He picked up a basket woven with thick willow twigs, put on the torn gloves and hat on the windowsill of the hut, and ignoring Li Xiufang's attempt to stop him, he went out of the house to the south garden to get some firewood.

……

The weather was very good today. There was no wind and it was not too cold. Shi Donglei was sweating all over after carrying four baskets of firewood. When the firewood was enough, he took a basket and went to the west of the room to get two baskets of old corn husks. He lit the stove with corn leaves and bean stalks and started burning the stove. At the same time, he helped Li Xiufang to light the fire.

Soon, the water in the east pot boiled. Li Xiufang scooped out some water for Shi Donglei to wash his face, and scooped another basin of water to keep for Shi Jianjun and Shi Yu to wash their faces. She used the remaining water to wash the pot.

Shi Donglei had washed his head and face, and Li Xiufang had already added some water to the pot and started boiling it. After Shi Donglei had wiped his face and combed his hair, Shi Jianjun had woken up and was slowly getting dressed.

Shi Donglei wanted to help his father put on his clothes, but Shi Jianjun shook his head and said, "I can put on my own clothes. I'm not at that stage yet. If I put clothes on others now, I'll be done for in the future. Exercise more, it's good for your health."

"That's right, haha." Shi Donglei smiled and went to the outer room. He saw that his little sister had also gotten up and was helping to light the fire. He picked up the broom hanging on the wall and swept the east and west rooms.

After finishing the work in the house, Shi Donglei went outside to sweep the yard and chopped some wood. When he returned to the house, the food was ready and on the table.

Li Dawang came just after the family finished breakfast. He was going to Xinglong Town to do some work. Shi Donglei had agreed with him to go to the station yesterday, and he came to pick him up.

Just now during dinner, Shi Donglei had already told his parents that he was going to Xingjiang today, and they agreed to let Shi Yu and Shi Donglei go to Xingjiang together to find a house. Seeing Li Dawang coming, the brother and sister quickly changed their clothes, jumped on the donkey cart, and walked east along the dirt road behind the courtyard under Li Xiufang's instructions.

When the donkey cart passed Taipingtun, Shi Donglei inadvertently glanced at the Cui family in the north of the street. The gate and door of the Cui family were locked, and it was obvious that no one was at home. He withdrew his gaze in disappointment, sighed quietly in his heart, and felt lost.

Arriving at the highway station north of Xinglong Town, Shi Donglei and Shi Yu waited on the north side of the highway for less than ten minutes before boarding a medium-sized bus from Sanhe to Xingjiang, bound for Xingjiang City.

There were a lot of people on the bus, and it was very crowded. Shi Donglei and Shi Yu stood for most of the way, and finally got a seat. Shi Donglei wanted to let Shi Yu sit, but Shi Yu pushed Shi Donglei to sit down, and she sat on his lap with a smile.

More than half an hour later, the bus arrived at the terminal station of Xingjiang. Shi Donglei got off the bus and stamped his feet for a long time, and his legs, which were numb from sitting on Shi Yu, finally recovered. Shi Yu supported him and giggled non-stop.

"Brother, I have already sent messages to my classmates and friends on the way, and they will come to help in a while." Shi Yu stood on tiptoe, turned up Shi Donglei's collar, and helped him straighten his down jacket. She looked like a virtuous little wife.

Shi Donglei also prepared a scarf and down jacket for Shi Yu. Looking at his beautiful little sister, who now had her own friends, time really flies. He sighed in his heart, took his little sister's hand, walked north along the street, came to the main entrance of the bus station, and walked into the bus station. There was air conditioning inside, so they didn't have to suffer from the cold.

The brother and sister stayed in the bus station for more than twenty minutes. Shi Yu suddenly jumped up from his seat, hugged several little girls who had just entered the room, and laughed and danced together, attracting the attention of people nearby.

These girls were all dressed very fashionably, and compared to Shi Yu's clothes, the difference was like heaven and earth. Although Shi Donglei didn't care about his own clothes, now that he saw the huge gap between his little sister and her classmates, he secretly made up his mind that he would let his little sister wear the most fashionable clothes in the future. He would not only have to have what others had, but at least catch up with the crowd!
Shi Yu came over with a few little girls and introduced them, "This is my brother, Shi Donglei, the one I told you about. Take a look at him, isn't he more handsome than Andy Lau?" The little girls looked proud.

The five little girls stared at Shi Donglei shamelessly, their big eyes sparkling with wonder, and they secretly admired in their hearts: This big brother is so handsome!

Today, Shi Donglei wore new clothes that he had taken out of his suitcase to prepare for the Chinese New Year: a brown leather jacket, blue brand-name jeans, brown brand-name cotton-leather shoes, and a brand-name skating hat and scarf. This outfit was a gift from a friend, and he had hardly worn it. This was the second time he had worn it.

Shi Donglei was originally fair-skinned, with a delicate and tough face, a neat crew cut, nearly 1.8 meters tall, and a straight back. Although he was not very handsome, when he stood there, he looked like a flagpole or a poplar tree standing proudly in the cold wind, very eye-catching!
"Hello!" Shi Donglei stretched out his hand with a smile. The five little girls, either giggling or quietly and shyly stretched out their hands, shook hands with him, and sat down and introduced themselves generously.

"Hello, Brother Lei, my name is Huang Ying, and I'm Shi Yu's deskmate."

The yellow warbler is as its name suggests, it is lively, cute and petite.

The remaining four girls are named Chen Jingxue, Zhong Caiping, Wen Xiaoxi, and Song Yi.

Among them, Chen Jingxue is a very quiet girl with a pure look; Zhong Caiping is a very lively girl, petite and very cute; Wen Xiaoxi is quiet and gentle, with a slim figure and sweet looks; Song Yi is tall, elegant and generous, and is the most outstanding one among the five girls!
After shaking hands and introducing themselves, the five girls took the Shi brothers and sisters to find housing. Shi Donglei wanted to take a taxi, but the five girls drove a Buick commercial vehicle, driven by Song Yi, and took everyone away from the bus station. "Brother Lei, Xiaoyu said that you work in Qindu. Are you back for the New Year now?"

The most lively Zhong Caiping asked curiously. The little girl took out a lot of snacks from her small bag, shared them, and ate them herself, blinking her big eyes and staring at Shi Donglei.

Shi Donglei looked at the beef jerky in his hand, threw two pieces into his mouth, chewed slowly and said: "I will develop at home in the future. I used to be in the building materials business, and I have also worked in other jobs."

He has done many jobs, including building materials, exhibitions, machine repair, websites, computer software and many other industries.

"Develop at home? Our shabby place is nothing compared to Qindu. Brother Lei, I don't think your idea is a good one!" Huang Ying said, shaking her head. She ate a strange-tasting bean and her expression became weird. She said, "Brother Lei, you are doing well over there, why do you want to come back to our shabby place?"

Shi Donglei said calmly: "No matter how shabby the place is, it's still my hometown. I can take care of the family at home without being distracted, and there are people taking care of me, which is better than being in Qindu." He paused and said: "Besides, the competition in Qindu is very fierce now, and it's not easy to work, let alone start a business. It's different here. We have just started to develop, there are many opportunities, and there is a lot of room for development. Although it seems that my family doesn't earn as much as Qindu, in the long run, Qindu doesn't have as much room for growth as home!"

Wen Xiaoxi asked softly, "Brother Lei, how much money did you make in a year when you were in Qindu?" She had heard that the salaries in Qindu were very high, and she had always wanted to go there to study at university and then find a job there.

"Not much, only 4,000 to 5,000 yuan a month, and occasionally I can make tens of thousands." Shi Donglei saw that the girls' eyes were sparkling, and he said, "Don't think that if you earn a lot, you will have a lot left. After deducting various expenses every month, I can only have one third left at most!"

"Brother Lei, what do you do that costs so much money?" Chen Jingxue, who had remained quiet since getting in the car, asked in a low voice.

Shi Donglei hesitated for a moment before saying, "You have to spend money on many things, such as treating clients to meals, giving gifts, and various social engagements." He had more to say, but thought it was inappropriate and meaningless to say it to the little girl, so he stopped talking.

"Brother Lei, what kind of job do you want to find?" Wen Xiaoxi asked while eating fruit leather.

"Of course it would be best if it was an industry I'm familiar with, such as building materials or mechanical repair. But if you can't find a suitable job, you can try other industries. Anyway, no matter what you do, you can't be idle, otherwise you won't have food to eat, haha." Shi Donglei said with a smile.

Song Yi steered the car skillfully, turning from the main street to the north into a small street, and said without looking back: "Brother Lei, have you seen the construction site? My second uncle's construction site is short of manpower now. I heard that the work is not tiring, but you have to be more careful. The monthly salary is at least four to five thousand yuan. If you are not familiar with the people, you can't do this. If you are capable and willing to do it, I will tell my second uncle!"

Shi Yu hurriedly said, "Song Yi, what's the point of saying can or cannot, are you willing or not? You don't have any sincerity at all. I'll make the decision for my brother. Just tell your second uncle. My brother often goes to construction sites in Qindu and knows everything!"

The other four girls also asked Song Yi for help. Song Yi just smiled and said nothing. She looked at the calm Shi Donglei in the rearview mirror. Shi Donglei was also looking at Song Yi. He felt that this girl was not only beautiful, but also elegant and generous. She also exuded a sense of stability. She didn't look like a girl of fourteen or fifteen. She was really precocious!

Shi Donglei and Song Yi's eyes met through the mirror, and they both smiled faintly. Shi Donglei said, "Stop arguing. Song Yi didn't say she wouldn't help me ask. The key issue is that I have to be capable. Song Yi, I used to go to various construction sites in Qindu. Although I'm not very professional about the things on the construction sites, I definitely know something! If your second uncle wants to find a professional, then I definitely can't do it. But if you want to find someone who is serious and responsible, then I definitely have no problem. For me, being serious and responsible is the most basic professional quality!"

Song Yi's eyes were bright, and just as she was about to speak, Zhong Caiping rushed to say, "Look, look, Brother Lei has been to Qindu before, and has seen big scenes. Even the way he speaks is different from ordinary people. He exudes two words everywhere: quality!"

The little girl acted like an old lady, which made everyone laugh. After laughing, Song Yi said, "Brother Lei, let's do this. We happened to pass by my second uncle's house when we were looking for a house. He just came back, so I'll take you to meet him. You can have a face-to-face meeting, and then we'll know whether it's okay or not!"

Shi Donglei nodded: "That's fine, but I'll have to trouble you and your second uncle!" He was very happy in his heart. Even if the job failed, being able to meet someone who was engaged in engineering would be very beneficial to his future development.

"It's okay, Brother Lei, you're welcome. We're here. This is the yard. The whole yard is for rent. If the price is right, we'll sell it to you!" Song Yi stopped the car and pointed to the locked gate on the side of the road.

Shi Yu asked, "Song Yi, how do you rent this yard?" She looked at the yard and the surrounding environment and felt that it should not be too cheap.

"It's not much money, just two thousand per month. There are five main rooms, four side rooms, a gatehouse and a warehouse in the yard. The yard is very big, and there is a small garden at the back for growing vegetables. The best thing is that the house is fully decorated and has complete home appliances. There are indoor toilets and showers, and there is an Internet cable. Now you can surf the Internet by installing a computer. This is the house of one of my relatives. They were in a hurry to go abroad and left in a hurry without having time to deal with it. It's been less than half a month since they left!" Song Yi got out of the car while she was talking, and everyone else got out of the car as well.

Song Yi took out the key from her bag and opened the iron gate. A burst of crazy dog ​​barking came from inside. Three big wolfhounds kept jumping around in the corner of the yard, barking non-stop, looking very ferocious!

"Dahei, Erhei, Xiaohei, stop barking!" Song Yi shouted, and the three big wolfhounds stopped barking immediately, but they still looked at everyone vigilantly, only wagging their tails to Song Yi with friendly eyes.

"These three dogs were also left behind by them. They are great at guarding the house. There is a restaurant and a slaughterhouse nearby. Food is delivered to them regularly every day. There is no need to worry about wasting money on feeding them." Song Yi led everyone to open the door and walk into the main room. The building looked a bit old from the outside, but it was decorated very luxuriously inside.

The layout of the house was very good. As soon as you entered the door, you would see a large living room with wooden floors. Stone Lei knew at a glance that this was an expensive solid wood floor. The price of the living room floor alone would not be less than 50,000.

The furniture made of solid wood, marble and iron, with fine workmanship, was all custom-made. This kind of furniture was far more valuable than those branded finished products. Adding the famous brand home appliances, Shi Donglei estimated the cost of this living room, and it would not be less than 500,000 at least!
"Brother Lei, what do you think?" Song Yi, wearing slippers, handed Shi Donglei a can of Coke. The little girls went to other rooms, and the sound of laughter could be heard everywhere.

The girls were at the age of being crazy and noisy, and they would gather together whenever they had time. Song Yi was obviously unique, and her performance also confirmed Shi Donglei's judgment of her.
