With the help of Niu Niu and Fan Shixian, Du Wenli and Niu Niu set up the barbecue stall a few days later.
The stall was set up near Du Wenli's residence.
There was a lot of traffic near his residence, and the two of them set up their stall from afternoon to night.
The daily income is more than the salary of jobs like security guards and waiters, although in Du Wenli's eyes, he really doesn't think much of this little money.
But after all, he is no longer the same as before, so he can only do it for now.
Fortunately, with Niu Niu's company, the father and daughter worked and chatted together every day, and his mood gradually improved.
You can also learn to let go of things like face psychologically.
Fan Shixian and Kong Wanwan both came to secretly take a look at Du Wenli's barbecue stall and saw that he was able to pick himself up and start a small business.
Niu Niu finally doesn't have to worry too much about her father anymore.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Fangting only knew Du Wenli's current situation after she heard Kong Wanwan tell Shen Xiaobei over the phone, and then Shen Xiaobei told her over the phone again.
One evening around eight o'clock, she couldn't help but secretly drove over to see Du Wenli.
In the smoke from the barbecue grill, Du Wenli was seen wearing an apron like a chef. His weathered face looked rosy under the light and the charcoal fire.
At this time, Niu Niu and I were busy grilling skewers and greeting customers.
It looks ordinary and fulfilling.
She stood not far away and watched silently for a while, smiled gently, then turned and left.
When leaving, Du Wenli grilled a kebab for a customer. When he packed it up and handed it to the customer, he looked up and happened to see her back as she was still there.
Just by taking a closer look at the familiar figure, Du Wenli knew that she was Mu Fangting.
She actually came to see him secretly!
He thought that she really had no love or hate for him and didn't care about him at all. But it turned out that she still had a trace of affection for him in her heart.
Enough!
That’s really enough!
Du Wenli forced a smile at the receding figure, and his eyes became wet.
Then he pretended to be smoked by the charcoal fire, wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes, and continued to grill the skewers enthusiastically...
Summer of 1994.
Because of her good behavior in prison, He Na was given a few months' sentence reduction and was released early.
Shen Xiaobei and Mu Fangting drove together to pick her up from prison.
At the prison gate, Shen Xiaobei opened his arms enthusiastically, hugged He Na and said, "Xiao He, congratulations on finally getting a new life!"
"He Na, welcome out!"
“Thank you, Mr. Shen, thank you, Mr. Mu!”
"Over the past three years, if you hadn't visited me so often and given me so much guidance, I wouldn't have been able to come out early. Thank you so much..."
"Okay, Xiao He, today is a great day to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, to start over. Don't cry. Come on, let's get in the car and talk. We'll take you out for a good meal first."
He Na was so grateful that her former superior and boss came to pick her up after she was released from prison. She was excited and touched.
After wiping away her tears, she was affectionately embraced by Shen Xiaobei and Mu Fangting into the car.
Over the past three years, the city of Shenzhen has undergone significant changes. There are more high-rise buildings, and more pedestrians and vehicles on the streets.
This made He Na feel both fresh and a little timid.
She was afraid that she could no longer fit in in this city.
"Xiao He, what do you want to eat? How about I take you to eat Sichuan cuisine? Let you have a good spicy taste and feel the warm atmosphere of fireworks."
"Okay, Mr. Shen, just make the decision."
"Okay, let's go to the Sichuan restaurant!"
He Na's meals in prison were generally bland, so Shen Xiaobei took her to a Sichuan restaurant to adjust her taste buds, which had been bland for more than three years.
At the same time, I also want her to develop a passion for life as soon as possible.
The three of them went to a Sichuan restaurant and after ordering the dishes, He Na still looked reserved.
She no longer had the lively and enthusiastic personality she had when she worked as a receptionist at a hotel.
More than three years of imprisonment without freedom really made a young girl become a completely different person.
I have become old, vicissitudes of life, lonely, and have no confidence anymore.
"Xiao He, have you decided what kind of job you want to do? If you still want to work in the hotel, Mr. Mu and I can arrange it."
"Thank you, Mr. Shen, but I...I don't really want to work in the hotel anymore. I don't want to face all those guests coming and going every day. I don't think I can adapt."
"Okay, that's fine. If you don't want to do it in a hotel, then we won't do it."
"So what do you want to do? Haven't you decided yet? If you haven't, you can think about it slowly, take a break for a while, and slowly adjust your state."
“No, Mr. Shen, I don’t want to rest!”
He Na said with some excitement.
Then, perhaps realizing that he was a little too excited, a look of embarrassment crossed his face.
His tone slowed down and he continued, "I've been resting in there for over three years. That's long enough. Now I just want to get back to work and live a normal life."
"Okay, since you don't want to rest, then don't rest. Then have you decided what kind of work to do?"
"Well...I want to go to work in the factory."
"Going to a factory? That's great. The working environment there is simpler and it's definitely more suitable for your current situation."
"I thought so too. Besides, Mr. Shen, I learned sewing in there, and I think I should be able to be an ordinary sewing worker in your garment factory."
"You learned to sew in there? That's great! Why didn't you mention it every time I visited you before?"
