Xiangcheng is an ancient city with a history of thousands of years. Its urban center has been in Hedong. For the old city, Yuanjialing is not the most authentic city center. However, with the development of the city in recent years, several large shopping malls have been built there, and the flow of people has become prosperous.

But I don't want to go that way.

In recent years, sometimes when it rains or Gu Mingyuan is in a good mood, he will let me change into clean clothes and take me along the street to slowly walk around the city.

He would tell me the history of the city as he walked.

Those old walls, those old houses, the layout of those old cities.

He will also take me to the museum, to the library.

While listening to Gu Mingyuan explain those historical relics, I also went to see those streets.

Yuanjialing is prosperous there, but there are big shopping malls and many large units. To me, it is not easy to find a job.

I'm going to the Bayi Bridge.

That, I just came to this city, where I knelt down to beg for the first time.

That is the oldest part of Xiangcheng.

It is surrounded by old houses and alleys. There are many small shops. You can find a hard job in that kind of place.

I walked all day along the streets around Bayi Bridge and asked dozens of small shops, but none of them was willing to hire me.

Because, I don't have an ID card.

After Gu Mingyuan adopted me, he also wanted to find someone to solve the problem of my household registration. However, because Gu Mingyuan's own account has not been solved, I am still a vagrant of unknown origin. Even if someone nods his head, he also puts forward the need for a high fee.

We can't afford it.

So, up to now, I am also a black household, a person without any identification.

Those people don't want to hire me, I understand.

After walking for a day, I found a step on the side of the road and sat down, looking at the pedestrians on the road blankly.

Across the road is a small shop selling Gai code rice, which is cooking. The smell of meat wafts in the wind, which makes my stomach groan twice.

I swallowed my saliva and calculated how long my money would last?

"Girl, are you looking for something to do?" There was a man's voice nearby.

I turned my head and saw a man in his early 40s, thin and thin, and his cheekbones were concave. I felt a thump in my heart.

But I nodded at him.

The man's eyes narrowed, glanced at me once and said, "I'm the boss of the opposite Nafu tiangai rice, but I need a small worker."

I stood up and said to him sincerely: "I can do it. I have strength. I can do anything."

The man's brow slightly warped and said: "you don't have ID card?"

My face darkened.

"In this way, I'll take care of your meals. There's a place for you to live behind the shop. If you do odd jobs, I'll give you 150 a month. Do you want to do it?" The man said with a casual smile.

It's 150 yuan.

In recent years, prices in Xiangcheng have skyrocketed, and wages have also risen.

Even if I'm small, I know that there are about 400 people who eat and live in these shops for a month.

150 yuan

I sighed in my heart, nodded and said, "dry."

The man took me across the road and said to a young woman in her early twenties at the cash register in front of me: "this is a small worker. It covers food and accommodation. It's 150 yuan a month. By the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Gu Qing." I said with a smile to the young woman.

The young woman frowned, looked at me, and glanced at the man again.

"This is my wife. My surname is Chen and her surname is Niu." The man said to me.

"Boss Chen, boss's wife." I smile on the face more heavy, to the young woman way.

The landlady made the young woman smile and said to me, "since the boss said it, you can stay."

With that, she came out from behind the cash register, bumped boss Chen with her body, and then led me to the back.

The area of the shop is not big. The front of the shop is about 50 square meters, while the back kitchen is less than 10 square meters. There is an open patio behind the kitchen, and there are two small houses with a square area of less than six square meters beside the patio, one for men and one for women.

The store hired two chefs, who were specialized in cooking, washing dishes, picking dishes and washing dishes. These were originally employed by two aunts. Before I came, the two aunts quit because of their low wages and heavy work.

After I came, all this work became mine.

The location of this shop is very good, and the business is also very good. Since 10 a.m., the flow of people has increased. The shop has to sell hundreds of Gai rice a day.

When the two cooking masters are too busy, boss Chen will help himself.

And the more rice they sell, the more jobs they have to do.Fortunately, I am young and agile. I do what the two aunts do. Sometimes the landlady is too busy. I can also help deliver food and collect money.

After a few days of cooking, the landlady's face was completely better for me. When I was eating, she was no longer throwing a bowl of rice for me to eat by myself. Instead, she called on me to eat with the masters.

Even if they use the leftover ingredients, there are at least two meat dishes in those three meals.

What's more, after the two aunts left, the six square house is equal to me sleeping alone.

So, even if I'm tired like a dog every day, and I'm paralyzed on the bed when I enter the house at night, I don't have any strength. Even if I work for three people and take half of my salary.

I also feel very satisfied!

The winter in Xiangcheng is very sudden. In one night, the temperature can drop more than ten degrees, and the streets are chilly.

In winter, everyone likes to have a hot meal, so the business of the shop will be better.

At noon that day, after I finished my work, I was called to the front by the boss's wife to order and deliver food. The door opened and two young men came in.

At first sight, I didn't notice anything. I ran up to meet the guests and took them to sit down in the corner where they had just come out.

Until the young man, who was always 1.8 meters tall, kept staring at me and said, "are you a girl?"

I was stunned and then suddenly recognized the two people in front of me.

In a flash of six years, big head and monkey have grown up. Big head has grown into a young man with upright facial features and a big body. Although the monkey is still a little skinny, his height is also much higher. It seems that his facial features are more than 1.75 meters. Moreover, his facial features have been opened, and he is beautiful in beauty, which is not the kind of thief he used to be

"That's a girl." The monkey gave a sneer.

as like as two peas bad ass!

I snorted and asked, "what do you want to eat? Today's white pepper fried meat is very fresh, wind blowing pig liver is also good, how about a pork tripe double

"Well, that's true." The monkey snorted.

"Stir fried pork with white pepper is the same as pork liver in the wind." Big head stabbed him and said to me.

I quickly recorded it, then called out to the kitchen and turned around to greet the other guests.

"Girl, when did you come back?" Big head behind me asked: "you follow an old man?"

I stepped down, and I didn't know what it was like.

In the past six years, Gu Mingyuan took me to this area every time, and I was a little worried. Later, Gu Mingyuan seldom brought me here.

I've never seen either of them again.

I didn't expect that big head knew I was following Gu Mingyuan

I didn't say anything, so I walked away quickly to greet other guests.

Noon time is the busiest time in the shop. With more customers, I have no leisure time to think about them.

After delivering the meal they ordered, they ran away without touching their feet. They didn't even know when they left.

Until the end of that day, the landlady handed me a note and said, "this is for you from two guests."

On the note was a string of numbers.

I know the number.

After only one look, I tore up the note and threw it into the dustbin. Yawning in the eyes of the landlady's satisfaction, I went back to my cabin.

That night, for the first time, I didn't go to sleep immediately. Instead, I spent more than half an hour on the wooden bed before falling asleep slowly.
