Tonight, the foreman treated him a little more kindly than before. Before he could work for a while, he beckoned him to come over and said, "Xiao Ji, you don't need to move materials today, these are enough, and the road is almost tidy."
Ji Yuanjie stood there at a loss, he thought he had lost his job.
The foreman said to him: "So, go and tidy up the flower beds on both sides. Someone was lazy and threw some broken bricks. Isn't it necessary to check the municipal greening? Be careful, I will give you two or three days. Come on, do it a little bit, don't be greedy."
Ji Yuanjie nodded immediately when he heard it, "Okay, I'll go get it now."
The construction section is not long, which is just a side road outside the community. There are some scattered broken bricks in the flower beds on both sides and the cement trucks mix the lumps of cement left in the corners. They are still semi-dry and easy to shovel down.
Ji Yuanjie made it very easy, which was much easier than carrying materials and cement before.
The foreman said to be careful, so he did it carefully. He did a rough search that night. The next day, taking advantage of the time when the courier was delivered early in the afternoon, he went to the construction section to clean it up again. , I can see more clearly, and I also cleaned up the dead branches and garbage in the flower bed.
It wasn't until Guo Xiaohu and the others came in half afternoon that Xiao Ji understood what was going on.
Guo Xiaohu's father made a fortune in the building materials business here, and he knew a lot of people. The small company that contracted this municipal road section was a little brother who used to follow his father. He came out to work alone in the past two years, but he has always been He has a very warm relationship with the Guo family. Guo Xiaohu was inspired by Tang Jinyu. Seeing that he could use Chen Suling's secretary to find a job in the vegetarian restaurant, he also asked his family about this uncle's phone number. When he called, he would immediately call him. Xiaoji arranged an easier job.
Guo Xiaohu not only helped him ask for help, but also brought a group of boys over to help him.
Five or six and a half young men moved very quickly, and helped Xiaoji to clean up half of it in a while.
Another boy said cheerfully: "Hey, do you think this is like cleaning the school's hygiene area? The last time our class was divided into flower beds, I am the best at this."
Guo Xiaohu didn't dare to meet Ji Yuanjie's eyes, looked at the front and said, "Everyone, split up, hurry up, I heard that there are bonuses for completing early."
Several people deliberately echoed loudly and went to work.
These people's acting skills were so poor that Ji Yuanjie could see what was going on at a glance.
But he didn't say anything, thanked them, and worked hard.
While working, Guo Xiaohu tried to encourage him and asked him if he wanted to repeat his studies.
Ji Yuanjie shook his head: "I'm not going..."
"Why?"
"It's expensive."
"Xiao Ji, let me tell you, the school I transferred to has a work-study department that helps the cafeteria and the political and educational department to do some work, and can earn living expenses in one semester. Really, there is a classmate in our class whose family conditions are very average. , his mother is still sick all the year round, that is, the high school that was admitted to the part-time work-study exam there, can go to report in September..." Guo Xiaohu said for a while, his lips were dry, and he said: "Xiaoji, go to study, How good is your score in the mock exam this time, your score is higher than mine, and you will definitely be able to list the key points after repeating one year."
Guo Xiaohu said a lot, but Xiao Ji kept silent, Guo Xiaohu finally couldn't hold his breath and said, "Why don't you go?"
"I can't leave my mother alone."
Xiaoji's words were insipid, but these words were too uncomfortable. Guo Xiaohu scolded, turned his head with red eyes, wiped it indiscriminately, and said, "We will help you."
Xiaoji smiled and said: "You have helped me enough, really, I am very grateful to you. My mother actually discussed with me about the school. She wanted me to go, but I plan to wait for two years. If there is still a chance, I will…”
"What are you waiting for!" Guo Xiaohu pointed to a few helpers over there, "If you don't go, you have to ask us if we will answer first. We have all agreed that we will work together during the summer vacation for three months, and I will give you Don't Xiaoyu ask his brother to help find a lawyer, don't worry, brother Xia Ye is very powerful, he will definitely help your family solve troubles!"
Guo Xiaohu's chest heaved a few times, and said in a hoarse voice, "At that time, you will repeat your studies for one year, and you will also focus on listing, and finish high school with us. Didn't we agree, you and me, Xingxing, Xiaoyu, let's take exams. A university in a city, when the semester starts, we can go there together by train, and we can come back together after the holiday."
He said a lot, with a particularly firm tone, as if that was the future they had agreed upon.
It was probably the hot summer weather, and the sun was dazzling. Xiao Ji was wearing a pair of thick-thread gloves and shoveling the cement marks left by the edge of the flower bed. After a few moments, the sweat on his forehead rolled down, and it slipped on the corners of his eyes, causing irritation and pain. The corners of his eyes were all red, and he didn't know if it was sweat or tears when he rolled down.
A few of them were working in full swing, and someone came over by the side of the road. This time it was a little girl who pushed an electric station and beckoned them at the intersection.
Someone around Guo Xiaohu saw it, he subconsciously responded and wanted to go over, but Guo Xiaohu stopped him and said deliberately: "Xiaoji, go ahead, we haven't done it yet, he has to move this marble slab with me. Going to the side, it's too heavy to be alone."

Ji Yuanjie agreed, put down the shovel in his hand and walked over. He wiped a sweat on the way, stood there and looked at the little girl with a smile: "Xingxing, why are you here?"
Han Yixing came to bring them water. She brought a lot of cold drinks she made at home, and also brought a small bucket of ice cubes, which was very well prepared, "My dad's unit distributed a lot of watermelons, I can't carry it, I think about it. I just squeezed it into watermelon juice and sent it to you, Xiaoji, look, I also brought ice cubes, here is a paper cup, I will bring it to you to drink... "
She said she wanted to come down, but Ji Yuanjie hurriedly stopped her. A barrier was placed in front of the construction section, and only one or two steps were still on the asphalt road. Han Yixing's electric car was parked a bit reluctantly, and Ji Yuanjie was standing right now. The dirt road was leveled with lime and cinders. He looked at the little girl's clean sandals and said with a smile: "Xingxing, don't come down, this place is dirty, you can just pass it to me, and I'll pick it up."
Han Yixing snorted and handed him the bag of cold drinks, "Wait a minute, I also bought you a cup, it's very big, bring it with you to drink water, it's too hot in summer, you must be careful not to get heatstroke, Just drink more water…”
Ji Yuanjie stood there with a cold drink, the little girl moved very slowly, glanced at him, and wanted to talk to him.
Xiao Ji opened her mouth first, and said to her after thinking about it: "Xingxing, don't give me any more things in the future."
Han Yixing became anxious, "Why?"
Xiao Ji looked at her with soft eyes and said, "I can't depend on you for the rest of my life."
Han Yixing said, "Why can't you rely on me all your life?"
Xiaoji smiled. He stood at the dividing line of the road and looked at the clean little girl on the road. The construction divided the place into two worlds. On one side, the green willows were shady and bright, while he stepped on the soil and his gloves were broken. It was tattered, and underneath it was a pair of hands with blisters. His voice was as clear as before, and he was always patient with her, "Xingxing, I had a very happy summer vacation."
"You are so kind to me."
"I will remember you all my life."
Han Yixing was a little flustered, she felt like Xiaoji was pushing her away, the little girl was afraid but didn't know what to do. She looked at the boy in front of her, even if her feet were in the dirt, she was so good, she was about to cry, "Don't say that, Xiaoji, can I help you? Let me help you, it will definitely get better. Ah... and, and you didn't say, tell me a little secret when this high school entrance examination is over!"
Xiao Ji stood there scratching his head, a little embarrassed, but he still smiled and decided, this was the first time he had missed an appointment with a little girl, and said sorry to her in a low voice.
Han Yixing was very sad, lowered his head and asked, "Don't you want to tell me?"
Xiaoji stood there and said softly: "Xingxing, forget me, there are still so many years in the future, you will meet other friends, and he will treat you as well as I used to treat you."
Han Yixing cried: "But, but how can anyone be as hardworking and serious as you... So why are they so stubborn and good to me?"
"Well, there will be."
"you're lying!"
"I lied to you that I'm a puppy, okay?"
Han Yixing kicked his calf hard, but Ji Yuanjie laughed when he let out a yawn, but soon the corners of his eyes were red with a smile. He took off his gloves and touched Han Yixing's head carefully, and said seriously and gently: "Xingxing , you are so kind, you deserve a better life. I don't want to drag you down, go back to school, study for a few more years, and take the exam together for me. "
Han Yixing blushed with tears and choked: "Then, what about you?"
"I'm grown up."
After Ji Yuanjie finished speaking, the little girl began to cry again. He was in a hurry to wipe her, but he was injured and dirty, and he was in a mess for a while, so he could only try to coax her: "Oh, don't cry, Xingxing, don't cry..."
Neither of them broke it, but they both knew in their hearts that the little girl didn't want to admit defeat after crying for a while, gave him the water cup she bought, and drove the electric car away by herself.
Han Yixing was very sad, but she still finished delivering today's courier while crying. She always has a beginning and an end in her work.
This time, the delivery was not smooth. When I arrived at a newly developed commercial area, it was difficult to park near the office building. After delivering several copies, she accidentally rubbed a high-end car there.
The little girl was about to collapse. She wrote her brother's phone number while crying, and stuck it to the car window where it touched a trace, with her name and words of apology written on it.
The little girl is so sad, she can't bear it a little today, she feels miserable for a while and then Xiao Ji is so miserable, she sits there on the ground crying, and doesn't go to deliver the courier, she takes out her mobile phone Call her brother.
Han Yichen picked it up very quickly. Hearing what she said, he immediately said, "Where are you?"
Han Yixing choked and said, "I'm here in the square... the parking lot is waiting, brother, why is this broken square so stingy, the car can't stop, what can I do?"
The other side of the phone said, "You just wait there, don't go anywhere, do you hear?"
The little girl agreed, hung up the phone and waited honestly.
From childhood to adulthood, her brother was the first to scold her when she had any trouble, but she was also the first to help solve it. She still trusted her brother very much.
Originally thought it was the person from the insurance company that his brother found, but the person who didn't expect to come was Han Yichen.
Han Yixing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Brother, are you back with brother Xia Ye?"
Han Yichen's face was not very good. He went over to take a look and found that his sister was not injured at all, so he was relieved, and asked her: "I have something to do here. It's not long since I arrived, and I haven't had time to go home... Which car touched you?" ?"
The little girl shook her head and pointed to the black Audi next to her, "No, the car stopped by itself. I just pushed the electric car over and walked along the path to cross it, and rubbed someone else's car."
Han Yichen took a look and saw a very shallow mark the size of his thumb. He got up and saw the note on the car window. He was so happy that he stretched out his hand and tore it off.
The little girl was startled when she saw it, "Brother, what are you doing? You are responsible for doing something wrong. I just rubbed someone's car."
Han Yichen asked her, "Do you know what I'm doing here?"
"What?"
"I'm here to insure the new car."
"What does that have to do with you tearing my note?"
"Nonsense, this is my new car!"
"… "
The little girl looked at her brother and the brand-new car. She couldn't help squatting down and started crying. Han Yichen was startled and hurried over to coax her, but the more he coaxed, the more he cried, he was inexplicable." Xingxing, why are you crying when I change the car? No, you rowed my car, it's me who should be crying, right?"
"My classmates are going to die of poverty, wow!"
The little girl cried so much that she couldn't help herself, and the sadness and grievances of a summer vacation all cried out in front of her brother. Han Yichen didn't know what was going on at first, but after coaxing her to say it slowly, he put together an outline, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Said: "Just for this? Okay, get up, brother help you."
"How can you help?"
Han Yichen helped her up, opened the car door and turned on the air conditioner to let her sit and rest. After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother Xia has spoken, the lawyer thing shouldn't be a problem, so the rest is to pay for the tuition, right? I'll give you a different job and do it indoors." He saw his little sister's blushing face and felt a little distressed, but he squeezed her cheek on purpose, and frowned, "You're so ugly, be careful that you won't be able to marry in the future!"
Han Yichen found them a new job, cleaning his office here. He got a transfer order to come back and open a branch. His current business is mainly responsible for network security, so he is not very picky about the office environment. The environment doesn't matter. The address of the branch office was chosen in this office building, which happened to be where Han Yixing touched his car, and when he looked up, he could see the tall building.
The little girl was shocked by his return. She always thought that her brother would work in the Shanghai market for more than ten years, and if he succeeded in his struggle, he would marry a beautiful sister-in-law, and it would take many years before he returned home. When she asked, Han Yichen said, "Xia Ye took his younger brother to study in the Shanghai stock market. If you don't go, you've been here for three years in high school, shouldn't I have to come back?"
Han Yichen said so, and reached out to wipe his sister's tears, "Okay, don't cry, it's not ashamed to be old."
He completely forgot how he got the order in the Shanghai stock market.
After arguing with Xia Ye for a few months, he went to stalk Song Yi's side again, and he was so stubborn that he insisted on coming back to set up a branch office. He was such a lazy person that he even made a military order, and Song Yi asked him to sign it. just let go.
When Song Yi let him go, he also attached a lot of harsh conditions. Han Yichen felt that he had just ceded the land and paid indemnity to sell the labor for the next few years, but he gritted his teeth and agreed.
Satisfied, Manager Song raised his hand to let go.
The old ape came to him yesterday, sighed with emotion, and said, "Song Yi is just trying. If you persist for two more days, maybe you can promise one or two less."
Han Yichen said: "Forget it, sooner or later, it's my job, and I'm not worried about my sister, so it's better to come back and see. You don't know, my sister cried last time, don't look at her usual giggles. , but the little girl, her mind is delicate, she is really wronged, I have to coax her."
The old ape smacked his lips with a smile, and said, "Your words sound familiar, and Xia Yebu used to say the same thing when he would fly solo last year."
Han Yichen said proudly, "I'm talking more emotionally!"
The old ape said: "You don't understand, his feelings are actually very rich, but his figure is like a dormant volcano, when there are burning feelings in the future." At the end, he said with emotion, "That's fine, let's go. , anyway, those who can keep you can't keep your heart."
Han Yichen has worked for so many years, and if he wants to talk about what he has learned from Xia Ye's side, it is definitely too much, but the most important one is Xia Ye's concept of work and family. This man seems to be a workaholic and brings work home to do it It didn't seem strange at all. Later, he realized that maintaining his "home" was his biggest job.
