To Your Island

Chapter 37: is an idiot

Views:

The new neighbor was weird, Yin Xian covered his stomach with one hand, and turned on the light at home with the other.

What kind of eyes does this person have

He squatted outside and brushed his teeth, watching her come downhill. As if she didn't see him, she kicked him down, stepped on his stomach and face, and walked over.

After wiping her face with a towel, Yin Xian glanced at the window, she was still standing outside.

"Is she an idiot?" He frowned and drew the curtains.

This is not the first time Yin Xian has made this comment to her.

a month ago.

Yin Xian came back from get off work. There are several row wooden houses next to his house. Pass through the wooden houses and turn into the alley, and then go deeper, and you will arrive at his house.

In the distance, he saw an unfamiliar little girl standing under the wooden house.

Looking like a teenager, she has a ponytail, a full forehead, and round eyes. She is wearing a light purple hoodie with words written on it, and her jeans are washed white.

When he got to the cabin, she had already gone upstairs.

"Grandma, let me help you," he heard her say.

"Okay, okay." The old lady put down the heavy objects in her hands and thanked her.

There was a sound of ping-pong-pong, mixed with the sound of stumbling downstairs.

"Hey, hey." The old woman shouted.

The little girl walked quickly: "Don't worry, I can handle it."

"No, no, oh..."

Yin Xian turned his head, and the girl just now was standing at the bottom of the building with a big cabinet on her shoulders.

After putting down the cabinet, she clapped her hands and wiped her sweat.

Waiting for the old woman, she had a gratified smile on her face.

The old lady walked slowly, chased after her to protect the cabinet, and sighed.

"Why are you leaving in such a hurry? It's too late to call. I was going to move upstairs. I moved to the second floor for a long time, and now you are moving me down again."

The little girl's eyes widened, and she was stunned for two or three seconds before she realized it.

"Oh, I'll help you move it up again."

"..."

Yin Xian, who was on the sidelines, couldn't help laughing out loud.

"idiot."

Two or three days later, when he saw her washing her hair at the faucet in front of his house, he realized that she was a new neighbor.

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa."

With hissing gasps and strange screams of unknown meaning, she poured shampoo on her head and scratched her hair. The foam was on her collar, and the cold water almost wet half of her back.

After listening carefully, I realized that she was shouting.

"Ice, ice, ice."

Turning on the faucet to wash away the foam, her screams were raised by one degree, as miserable as killing a pig.

"The ice is broken, woo woo bing bing bing."

As if shouting could ward off the cold, she rubbed her head with her hands desperately, and her mouth didn't stop for a moment.

In such a cold day, no one with a bit of common sense and IQ would pour cold water on his head... Yin Xian closed the door, went back to his room, and made sure that his new neighbor was not in his right mind.

The sound insulation of the urban village is poor, and the walls are like paper.

From time to time, Yin Xian could hear the new neighbor talking to himself at home.

"Did I leave the lights on when I left? How sloppy, electricity is expensive."

"I have to buy curtains when I get paid. I don't know where the curtain shop is."

"I'm so hungry, but I can't eat any more. This bite is reserved for tomorrow's breakfast."

"Oh, I'm so hungry."

He put the quilt over his head so as not to hear her talking. She kept yelling that she was hungry, which made his stomach growl too.

"It would be nice to have a bowl of hot noodles."

How could someone talk to him in such a secret way

Yin Xian turned over irritably, covering his ears with his hands.

After going back and forth, he has already recognized her voice.

With a soft southern accent, he speaks fast and has many modal particles. Compared with talking to people, the words spoken when talking to myself are more vague, falling on my ears, like a little bee desperately flapping its wings.

In the morning, he fell into a drowsy sleep and heard the voice of his new neighbor.

"Hey, you little girl, did you take my bag!"

The old man who collected the scraps on the opposite side raised his voice and scolded his head and face: "Aunt Zhao said that it was you, don't deny it, and stole the scraps I worked so hard to collect. I'm so poor, you don't even have my things. Steal, lose your conscience."

Yin Xian got up from the bed and saw the new neighbor apologizing to him with folded hands through the window.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know what you wanted. That bag is black, and it's full of rubbish. If I throw out the rubbish, I'll throw it out for you."

The uncle waved his hand, ignoring her explanation: "Okay, okay, help me? Are you embarrassed to say help me? Don't move if you don't know what it is. If you think it's garbage, that's what you think. How much did it cost me to collect those waste products?" Do you know kung fu?"

"I'm sorry." She swallowed what she wanted to say, with a sad face.

The uncle raised his neck and became more and more angry: "You have to pay me."

The little girl nodded: "Okay... how much will you pay?"

The uncle reported a number, obviously trying to blackmail her.

Yin Xian did not continue to look down.

People are enthusiastic and love to be good people, that's their business.

It's none of his business, he won't care.

Wang Jiexiang was sure that she was sick.

She came back from the unit and drank a lot of hot water, but her throat still hurt. When she went to work the next day, she had a sickly face, and when the wind blew, she couldn't stand still.

After carrying it all morning, she couldn't hold on any longer, so she asked Sister Xu to ask her.

"I'm not feeling well today, can I change places with you this afternoon?"

Sister Xu rolled her eyes and refused.

"If you are sick, ask the leader to ask for leave, and go home and sleep."

Wang Jiexiang went to the supervisor, but it was not to ask for sick leave, but to apply to her to sell oil in the supermarket in the afternoon.

The supervisor felt strange: "Isn't the original regulation just that you two work shifts? Is there anything to apply for?"

"Sister Xu said that she is more familiar with the interior of the supermarket, so I have been selling tents."

Wang Jiexiang didn't intend to file a complaint. She just felt uncomfortable and wanted to stay in a warmer place, but her salary would be deducted if she asked for leave. She needed money, so she didn't ask for leave.

Even if it wasn't her intention, the supervisor still led her to Sister Xu and scolded Sister Xu.

Wang Jiexiang got an afternoon of staying indoors as she wished.

But after there, she was pushed out even worse by colleagues at the supermarket.

The sales period of peanut oil was over, and the supermarket did not keep her as a salesperson. Wang Jiexiang started the long journey of finding a job again.

She graduated from junior high school, has no specialty, and no work experience.

Moreover, Wang Jiexiang is a skinny little girl, and others don't want her for jobs that require strength.

After coming to the city for two months, there was no one she could talk to. She couldn't find a job, and no one introduced her to a job.

Wang Jiexiang was wandering in an unfamiliar street, feeling like a grain of sand being carried into the sea by the cold tide. Her emotions, including her existence, were swallowed by the ocean.

For this huge city, she is so small that it seems transparent.

Really desperate, she went to Jiang Bingbing again.

The barber shop where Jiang Bingbing works part-time has a recruitment information posted outside.

"Sincerely looking for female hair washing workers, under the age of 24, salary negotiable."

With hope in Wang Jiexiang's eyes, he took off the note and entered the store.
