“I found a job!”
"Really? You got a job? What kind of job?"
When Du Wenli heard the good news from Kong Wanwan, his unhappy expression disappeared immediately.
"Sister-in-law, congratulations on finding a job so quickly."
"Hehe, thank you! The job I'm looking for is to be a waiter in a Western restaurant!"
"Waiter? Oh, can you handle this kind of waiter job?"
"Du Wenli, do you look down on me so much? Why do you think I can't do it? I've been working in the countryside for so many years in Baiju Brigade, and I've done all kinds of farm work. And Niuniu, I raised her with all my heart!"
"I can endure all these hardships, so how can I not be a waiter?"
"Besides, let me tell you, the environment of this western-style restaurant I applied for is really nice and classy. It's not comparable to the waiters in those small restaurants!"
"Our restaurant manager even has an English name. Don't look down on my job! Humph, the average person might not even be able to apply for this position!"
"How much is the monthly salary?"
For Du Wenli, who has become a college student, it is indeed a bit embarrassing to have his wife work as a waitress.
However, thinking that Kong Wanwan, a delicate young lady from the provincial capital, was taking the initiative to find a job and seemed quite enthusiastic about this job, he didn't want to discourage her too much.
What if she gets angry and quits her job? When will she be able to make money?
He won't get any benefit then and will be the one in trouble.
"The probation period is 30 yuan a month. After the second month, the probation period ends, and it will be 35 yuan, and it includes two meals! But..."
"But what?"
"However, that job doesn't provide accommodation, so I have to continue living in Shen Xiaobei's house."
"Didn't you say you've already paid her a month's rent? Just live with her, what's the big deal?"
"But I work double shifts, once a week. If I'm on the night shift, there won't be any buses. It's so far, how am I going to get home?"
"So, Wenli, I have to buy a bicycle to go to get off work, otherwise I won't be able to do this job."
"Buy a bicycle? Bicycles are so expensive, at least one hundred and fifty-six, right? How can I afford it now?"
"That's right, so I had no choice but to come to you to discuss whether I could borrow some more money from your classmates to buy me a bicycle. With a bicycle, I can go to work and earn money tomorrow!"
"Kong Wanwan, do you think all my classmates are rich? I can't bring myself to tell my classmates that!"
"Wow... If you don't help me, what should I do? I've looked in so many places and finally found a job, but you don't even support me!"
"Wuwuwu... I don't care. If you don't support me and help me borrow money, I'm going to stay here today!"
"Anyway, without a bike, my job is gone! Without a job, I'm a useless person, and you'll have to support me. I won't look for a job anymore, because even if I do find one, it'll be gone anyway, wuwuwu..."
"Kong Wanwan, could you please stop embarrassing me in school? Let me think about the bicycle matter again!"
As soon as Kong Wanwan started crying, some teachers and students passing by looked towards them.
Du Wenli didn't want to embarrass himself in school, so after scolding Kong Wanwan, he had to soften his tone.
Then, with a bit of distress and helplessness, and a hint of asking for help, he looked at Bai Lisa.
Bai Lisa glared at him unhappily.
Just now she was secretly happy, thinking that now that Kong Wanwan had found a job, she would not have the time to come to the school to find Du Wenli, and he would be able to pay her back soon.
I didn't expect to be slapped in the face so soon.
This woman is so greedy, shameless and tactless. She just borrowed 50 yuan from me yesterday, and now she comes to ask for money again. It's a pity that she can even ask for that!
"Okay, as long as you help me borrow money to buy a bicycle today, I won't embarrass you!"
"How much do you want to borrow?"
"You said it yourself, a bicycle costs at least 150 or 160 yuan, so I'll just buy the worst one, the one that costs 150 yuan!"
"Yesterday, classmate Bai lent me fifty yuan. I took the bus back and forth, had dinner, and bought daily necessities. It cost me a few yuan in total."
"Then, the restaurant also asked for a deposit for two uniforms, which would cost me 20 yuan. I only have a little over 20 yuan left."
"One hundred and fifty minus twenty-odd yuan. Just erase the change, it's not much. That leaves a shortfall of one hundred and thirty yuan. Wenli, please lend me one hundred and thirty yuan!"
"One hundred and thirty yuan? Kong Wanwan, you sound so easy! When can you pay back such a large sum of money?"
"I only earn 35 yuan a month. Shouldn't I be able to pay it off in just four months?"
"Oh, four months, don't you have to spend money every month?"
It was so easy to hear Kong Wanwan say that she could pay off more than a hundred yuan in four months.
Du Wenli asked back sarcastically.
He felt that this woman had absolutely no self-awareness and didn't understand what kind of person she was.
"I thought of this on the way to see you. For the next four months, apart from buying envelopes and stamps every month and sending a letter home to ask about Niuniu's situation, I plan not to spend a penny!"
"You can go four months without spending a penny? Ha, I don't believe you!"
"Du Wenli, why do you always look down on me? I used to be a bit extravagant with my money, I know that, but I'm trying to change!"
