...
After getting off work at noon, I was strolling around the ancient city by myself. When I got to the Erhai Gate, I ran into Yang Sisi.
She seemed to have rented a stall here. When I saw her, she was facing a drawing board, sketching portraits for tourists... This way of making money is very common in the ancient city. Generally, you can earn 30 to 50 yuan for sketching a tourist's portrait.
That's when I found out she had such a talent... She was probably an arts student in high school.
The stall was very simple, and the sun shone directly on her. She was sweating, and her shoulders were peeling from the sun... There was nothing she could do; Dali's ultraviolet rays are notoriously strong. But she didn't care. She wiped the sweat off her face and wiped it directly on her clothes. Then she used her paintbrush to mark the faces of the tourists.
I've watched Yang Sisi grow up, so I feel really bad... And she seems to have really changed. If it were before, she would definitely pester me to arrange a job for her, but now that our studio can actually provide her with a job, she quietly chooses to be self-reliant.
...
I went to find the manager of these stalls, and he told me that the stall that Yang Sisi rented without any cover was the cheapest, only 500 yuan a month; the ones next door with small wooden huts were much more expensive, at least 1,500 yuan a month.
I originally wanted to find her a place with a cabin, but then I felt it wasn't a good idea. After weighing the options, I went outside the old town and bought her a commercial parasol, then asked the staff to deliver it to her...
I don't expect her to know me; I just hope this umbrella can shield her from some of the sun and wind.
...
Standing in a corner she wouldn't notice, I watched for a while... Then I received a call from Lao Mi. He said he would come to Dali with his mother to see me tomorrow.
It was this phone call that changed my life once again, forcing me to approach marriage. To chat with more like-minded people about "My Tenant Miss," follow "Or" on WeChat to discuss your favorite books with other book lovers.
