Chapter 4 Officially Working
After parting with Li Yu, Jun Lan wanted to walk around and take a look, when suddenly the phone rang.
"Daughter, why haven't you come back yet? Look at the time. Your mother and I are waiting for you to eat! Did your interview go well today? Are you tired? Do you want me to pick you up?"
"It's okay, you don't have to come pick me up, I'll go back now, Dad, I have good news to tell you, I found a job."
"Really? That's great, I'll go get some extra food tonight so we can celebrate properly."
Lao Lin hung up the phone, quickly took the money, and ran out excitedly.
Aunt Lin saw this and asked quickly, "It's almost time for dinner, why are you rushing off somewhere? Did something good happen to your daughter? You look so happy."
Lao Lin: "Our daughter has become successful and found a job. She loves roast goose. I'll go buy a side of roast goose tonight to add to the dishes."
It was already past seven when Junlan rushed home. She quickly got up to serve her soup and dishes, which made her flattered.
Jun Lan: "Don't wait for me to eat if it's too late in the future. You guys can eat first. I have a cafeteria over there."
Lao Lin: "Where is your new job and what do you do?"
Junlan hesitated for a moment, considering whether to tell them the truth. To be honest, some parents really couldn't accept spending so much money to train a college student to be a waiter.
Aunt Lin saw her hesitation and asked cautiously, "Why isn't it suitable? If you really don't like it, forget it! You can look for a job later. Your family situation isn't such that you need to find one right away."
Jun Lan: "It looks okay to me. I want to give it a try."
Lao Lin: "What's so difficult about that? Just tell your family if you have any questions."
Jun Lan: "I have found a job, but I'm afraid you won't be happy. It's as a room attendant at the Junyue Hotel. If you don't like it, I'll turn it down and look for another job!"
The two elders in the family looked at each other, and Lao Lin spoke first, "I thought it was something else, just a room attendant! Your mother and I considered the worst-case scenario before you came back, even if it was a shampoo girl, a foot massage girl, or a beer girl. As long as you like it and can do it, as long as you don't break the law, your mother and I will support you. You will have to walk the road alone from now on. A few wrong choices will not determine your fate. No matter where you go, you will learn something. Come on."
After hearing this, Junlan felt relieved and relaxed.
After dinner, Junlan was about to wash the dishes, but Aunt Lin took the dishes first and went to wash them.
Junlan could only take a shower, return to her room, and call her boyfriend.
My boyfriend Zhang Fanxi and Jun Lan met in college and have been together for more than three years.
If Jun Lan is considered a happy child because her family is just a little poor but can still get by, then Zhang Fanxi is indeed a person with a miserable life.
His mother used to be a talented singing and dancing artist in a migrant worker troupe. Later, when she went to the countryside with the educated youth, she was raped by a village bully and became pregnant with him. However, in that special era when people could not cry out to heaven or earth, for the sake of the child in her belly, his mother could only endure the humiliation and marry the bully.
That was the beginning of the nightmare for mother and son.
The day after his mother gave birth to him, she was forced to do heavy work in the fields, and soon she suffered from severe uterine prolapse.
Yes, his father was a complete bully who didn't want to work and just wanted to eat and drink for free. How could he let go of the servants who were free to use without paying? He also had a daughter of unknown origin who also treated his mother as a free nanny. The two of them existed in that family, one as an ATM and the other as a punching bag.
However, evildoers will be punished. When Zhang Fanxi was three years old, his bully father suddenly went crazy after drinking some wine. Regardless of his mother's pleading, he insisted on going swimming in the pond on a thundering night. As a result, he was found dead in the pond that night, struck by lightning.
But the nightmare of the mother and son did not go away at all with the departure of the bully.
It is easy to imagine how difficult life is for a woman who is sick all over and has to raise two children.
But God was unwilling to let this poor woman who had suffered from all kinds of injuries and toil go. Four years later, when Zhang Fanxi was seven years old, his mother died in a deep sleep.
That year, his half-sister had just turned 18. She took away all the savings and valuables on the seventh day after his mother's death and has not been heard from since.
Poor Zhang Fanxi became an orphan at the age of seven. He grew up eating at many people's homes and his tuition fees were all waived by the school.
Jun Lan's acquaintance with him was quite dramatic and had some of the flavor of a hero saving a damsel in distress.
Although they were from the same school, they were not on the same campus. In order to encourage their junior college students to transfer to their main campus, the Junlan campus arranged a social gathering, and it happened that Fanxi hosted them.
That day, after they arranged the program for the group day tour, Junlan collected the funds and was about to go to the travel agency with Fanxi to collect the money. Junlan's bag containing the money was accidentally snatched away by a drug addict. Fanxi chased the bag for several blocks before getting it back. After sending the criminal to the police station, everyone could see that Fanxi's face was swollen and his body was injured, but he still ignored his own injuries and insisted on accompanying Junlan to the travel agency to collect the money and finally sent her back to school.
It was because he recovered the money in time that the one-day trip was able to proceed smoothly as scheduled. However, Jun Lan did not see her "savior" on the day of the trip, and she couldn't help feeling a little lost.
After asking around, I finally learned something about him from his roommate.
Roommate: "Our classmates have thought about raising money for him to come over and play with us, but he has a strong sense of pride and he definitely won't agree. Besides, he's injured and can't even attend classes. He's still recuperating in the dormitory! How can he have the energy to join us in having fun?"
Junlan: "You are so badly injured, why don't you go to the hospital?"
Roommate: "Miss, after using his scholarship to pay for tuition and fees, he can barely afford to eat. How can he afford to see a doctor?"
Seeing that Jun Lan was silent, the roommate added, "Okay, okay, if Fan Xi knew that I told you so much, he would definitely kill me. You must not tell anyone that it was me who said it, otherwise I will really be dead."
After Jun Lan walked away, a figure suddenly jumped out from the bushes and patted the roommate on the shoulder. The roommate was instinctively frightened, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the other person's appearance clearly.
"Head of the dorm, could you please not suddenly jump out from behind me and scare people? Scare people to death."
"I've never done anything wrong in my life, and I wouldn't be startled by a knock on my door in the middle of the night. What? Did I do something wrong? Who told you to speak ill of others behind their backs? You knew he didn't like others knowing too much about him, so why did you say so much to that woman just now?"
"Reporting to the dormitory leader, I'm learning to do good deeds. It seems that Zhang Fanxi will never be able to pick up girls on his own. He's poor, arrogant, and can't talk. Girls nowadays are very picky! It's a rare opportunity to have such an adventure. As a brother, we have to help him!"
The dormitory leader thought what he said made sense and said nothing more.
