Chapter 71 Let’s Walk Slowly



When Rong Yongsi saw Shao Jingque coming, he quickly greeted her happily:

"Jingque, come and see! The scenery that Brother Wang built looks just like the real thing! It's amazing!"

Wang Yuquan smiled shyly when he was praised. When he saw Wu Shuang coming, he was too embarrassed to greet her. He just stood aside and smiled at her happily.

You can see that he is very happy, probably because he feels that he has not brought shame to his wife.

Speaking of which, this was the first time that Shao Jingque had a close look at Wang Yuquan's appearance.

In the original owner's impression, even if he accidentally met Wang Yuquan in the corridor, he had long hair and a long beard, his face was completely covered by hair, he walked with a hunched back like a ghost, and he would shrink back into the stairwell when he saw people. He never saw what he looked like.

Looking today, it was obvious that Wu Shuang had dressed up for him before going out. His hair was cut short, his beard was shaved, and he was wearing a shirt and pants that were a little worn but clean. He stood up straight and looked tall, thin and handsome. Most importantly, there was a light in his eyes, and his whole body looked energetic.

Shao Jingque admired the scenery and exclaimed:

"Brother Wang, your set is so realistic! No wonder Sister Wu said you were her master!"

Wang Yuquan didn't know how to respond after receiving the praise, so he scratched his head embarrassedly. He was still not used to talking to people, so he had to look at Wu Shuang for help.

Wu Shuang understood, walked over to him and said with a smile:

"My husband, Lao Wang, may not be good at talking, but his skills are absolutely excellent. As long as the boss is satisfied, that's all that matters."

Rong Yongsi nodded affirmatively, clearly approving:

“Satisfied, very satisfied!”

Originally, he chose a combination of blackboard and desks from the sketch given by Shao Jingque. After Wang Yuquan came to the store on time at ten o'clock in the morning, he didn't say much and finished the work at two o'clock in the afternoon. In addition, he also carefully wrote neatly on the blackboard. The effect presented at this time made Rong Yongsi very satisfied.

I immediately picked up the camera and composed the scene, and the effect looked very good.

The only thing that made him feel a little regretful was that he could only compose the picture from the front, which was a bit too monotonous. But if he composed the picture from the side, there would be too much white space on the left side of the wall, making it look a bit empty.

Unexpectedly, Rong Yongsi just composes the picture and mutters a few words to himself, and Wang Yuquan hears it.

He mustered up the courage to suggest to Rong Yongsi that he could build another window on the left wall and add the scenery outside the window, which might make the photo more realistic.

Looking at the draft that Wang Yuquan drew with just a few simple strokes on the paper, Rong Yongsi, who was already very satisfied with his craftsmanship, gave him great trust and immediately agreed with his idea.

Wang Yuquan was very happy to receive the encouragement, and without saying a word, he started working again. He installed the window frames and windowsills on the wall one by one, installed locks and could adjust the switches freely. He also carefully depicted the scenery outside the window stroke by stroke.

Just when Rong Yongsi was amazed by the result, Wang Yuquan still felt it was not enough. He picked up the remaining wood on the ground and started carving. He did not show a satisfied smile until he carved a vivid little sparrow and placed it on the windowsill.

After finishing his work, Wang Yuquan was not idle either. He diligently picked up all the broken materials on the ground. Although it was a little inconvenient for him to move because of dragging one leg, it did not delay his work at all.

Hearing Rong Yongsi's repeated expressions of satisfaction, Wang Yuquan's smile deepened.

Rong Yongsi turned to him and said:

"Brother Wang, let's make a deal. You'll come to my shop once a month to help set up the scenery. Ten yuan is a bit low, so please forgive me. As you can see, my shop is small right now. When business picks up in the future, I'll definitely raise your salary."

Wang Yuquan was somewhat flattered, his lips trembling a few times, but he finally managed to utter a complete sentence:

"Thank you, thank you, boss. Ten dollars is not a small amount, not a small amount at all."

Seeing Wang Yuquan stuttering with excitement, Wu Shuang was so happy that tears welled up in her eyes.

She has always known that her man is capable, but it is the environment that looks down on people with disabilities that refuses to give her man a chance. Now that she sees someone appreciates him, Wu Shuang is of course happy for him from the bottom of her heart.

She wiped the corners of her eyes and said to Shao Jingque and Rong Yongsi with a smile:

"Thank you, Sister Jingque, and thank you, Boss. My Lao Wang will definitely do his best!"

Shao Jingque smiled and patted her hands:

"Sister Wu, you can't thank me for this. It's all because of Brother Wang's excellent cooking skills. We can't thank him enough for his help!"

Rong Yongsi also nodded repeatedly:

"Jing Que is right. Brother Wang has been busy all day. Let's go have a meal together. It's my treat!"

Wu Shuang and Wang Yuquan were too embarrassed to ask their boss to treat them to a meal, and they couldn't refuse no matter what. Rong Yongsi had no choice but to pay Wang Yuquan the compensation first. The two of them thanked him profusely before leaving.

After they went out, knowing that Wang Yuquan didn't like being supported by others, Wu Shuang just slowed down her pace and walked slowly beside him.

Even if people around her gave her strange looks, she ignored them. She was only concerned about whether the road ahead of Wang Yuquan was easy to walk on, and she didn't care about those scrutinizing looks at all.

Wang Yuquan naturally also felt the scrutiny from others. He pursed his dry lips, his Adam's apple rolled, as if he had made up his mind. Suddenly, he reached out and took Wu Shuang's hand, holding it between his elbows.

Wu Shuang was a little stunned and didn't know what his action meant.

Wang Yuquan's face flushed unnaturally, and he lowered his head and said softly:

"Hold my arm and let's walk slowly together."

Hearing this, tears welled up in Wu Shuang's eyes.

She doesn't care what others think of Wang Yuquan. She only cares about how Wang Yuquan thinks of her.

Over the years, he always hid himself with inferiority, thinking that he was useless after becoming disabled and that he was a waste who would only cause trouble to others. As a result, he became extremely sensitive and fragile, unwilling to accept any help from anyone.

But his actions just now clearly showed that he had decided to face himself again, accept the fact that he was a disabled person, and try to accept the kind help of others. This represented his first step in being willing to step out of his closed world.

This made Wu Shuang see hope in life again. As long as Wang Yuquan can regain his confidence in life, no matter how many storms there are in the future, she is willing to accompany him without hesitation!

She smiled with tears in her eyes and held Wang Yuquan's arm tightly:

"Okay, let's walk slowly together!"

Under the warm yellow street lights, the figures of the two people became longer and longer, and gradually merged together.

At this time, in the photo studio, Shao Jingque was still carefully observing Wang Yuquan's neat handwriting on the blackboard, and secretly praised it in his heart. He thought that seeing the handwriting was like seeing the person, and looking at the handwriting, he knew that Wang Yuquan must be a very serious person in his work and life.

She turned her head to look at the little bird by the window. It was carved particularly delicately, and its lifelike and cute appearance made her unable to help but bend down to touch a feather on its head.

“Crack—Crack—”

Suddenly, a crisp shutter sound rang in his ears, and Shao Jingque turned around to see——

It turned out that Rong Yongsi was so moved by this scene that he couldn't help but quietly pick up the camera to take pictures.
