Chapter 518 Advance
Dafeng quickly waved her hands and said, "I can't accept it. I have three little kids at home. If I let them eat bananas and apples, they'll get greedy. They'll be clamoring for them every day, and I won't have money to buy them."
Having said that, Dafeng lowered his head with a complicated expression.
Chu Dashan immediately realized that the benefactor in front of him did not need fruit or the like, so he took out twenty yuan from his pocket.
"I'll exchange the fruit for money, and you can use it to buy food for the children."
Dafeng still didn't answer. "You don't look like a rich person. If you give me so much money, how will you eat in the future? Besides, these fruits are not worth so much, right? I don't want either the money or the fruits. It was just a small favor just now, don't take it to heart."
Chu Dashan carefully examined the woman in front of him. She was skinny and malnourished, looking as if she would fall over if the wind blew. He misunderstood her as a doctor and asked, "Sister, which ward are you staying in?"
Dafeng was a little embarrassed. She couldn't say she was here to test the waters. "Actually, I came to the hospital to apply for a night shift nurse position. I have three children to support and I'm really short of money. Since I have to work during the day, I can only take care of patients at night. By the way, are you short of nurses?"
Chu Dashan frowned, "Why are you, a woman, so tired? Where's your husband? If he's willing to be a caregiver, he can come and take care of me at night for fifteen yuan a month."
Dafeng's eyes were slightly red, but her gaze was firm. "My husband has been dead for three years. I have no parents-in-law or family. I raised three children by myself."
Chu Dashan gave her a thumbs up and said, "You are a good mother! You are still young, don't you plan to remarry?"
Dafeng smiled bitterly. "I do want to find a reliable man to marry, but these little brats are bankrupting me, not to mention there are three of them. Any man who knows my family situation will avoid me. To be honest, I have sold blood several times, otherwise I wouldn't be able to survive until now. Big brother, I can be a caregiver and come to take care of you at night, how about that? If you despise me because I am a woman and have less strength, I can ask for less salary."
"How is your cooking?" Chu Dashan hadn't eaten home-cooked meals for a long time. If Dafeng cooked well, he wouldn't mind paying her more.
Dafeng looked confident, "My cooking is definitely delicious!"
"How about this? If you work as a caregiver and cook dinner for me every day, I'll give you 28 yuan a month. Of course, this includes food expenses. I can't afford to pay more. My monthly pension is only 30 yuan. Let's be frank. If your cooking doesn't suit my taste, I'll fire you next month. Would you consider it?"
Dafeng was very surprised. "No need to think about it. I agree! Can I start work tonight? What do you want to eat? I'll make it when I get home from get off work this afternoon and bring it to you."
She came here during her lunch break and had to go back to the factory to work soon.
Chu Dashan could tell she really needed this job. "Okay. Then start tonight. I'll advance you this month's salary and meal money."
He swiftly took out money from his pocket, collected twenty-eight yuan, and stuffed it into Dafeng's hand.
Dafeng was a little excited. "I didn't expect you to trust me so much on our first meeting. Aren't you afraid I'm a scammer and will run away with the money?"
Chu Dashan laughed, "I believe I won't make a mistake. Take it! My name is Chu Dashan."
Dafeng took the money, counted it again, and put it carefully into her pocket.
The advance of 28 yuan will last her until she gets her salary next month.
"Brother Chu, my name is Mei Dafeng. You can call me Dafeng. Thank you for your trust! I'm in a hurry to go to work, so I'll leave first."
"Go quickly!"
After watching her leave, Chu Dashan realized that he had forgotten to ask her which factory she worked in and where she lived.
In fact, he doesn't have a very good eye for people.
I just slapped my head and thought, why did I give the money?
