I collect gold fingers in the heavens

Chapter 25 Hiring
2012 7 Month 16 Day.

Ten forty-three in the evening.

Wu Siyuan finished work early today. He bought some barbecue, took two bottles of cold beer, and returned to his residence.

When she just opened the door of her room, Lin Meiyi's door also opened, and Lin Meiyi, who was wearing a floral dress and a little makeup, walked out, "Xiao Yuan, are you off work?"

"Yes, sister Meiyi." Wu Siyuan could tell at a glance that Lin Meiyi was waiting for him.

"Have you finished your meal yet?" Lin Meiyi glanced at the smelling barbecue in Wu Siyuan's hand and asked.

"I've eaten, but I'm hungry, buy some supper. Sister Meiyi, would you like some?" Wu Siyuan asked politely.

"Okay!" To Wu Siyuan's surprise, Lin Meiyi nodded.

That being the case, Wu Siyuan opened the door and let Lin Meiyi in.

After Lin Meiyi came in, she took the initiative to close the door.

Wu Siyuan's room is very simple, except for the necessary bed, wardrobe, and a desk.

He put the barbecue and beer on the table, found two disposable cups, opened the beer, and poured the beer.

The glass was full of foam, and after the beer foam dissipated, Wu Siyuan poured some more, and then handed the beer to Lin Meiyi.

Without further ado, Lin Meiyi drank the drink in one gulp.

Because she drank too fast, beer liquid flowed down from the corners of her bright red lips, all the way down her fair neck.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Lin Meiyi coughed endlessly, and Wu Siyuan thoughtfully brought a tissue.

After she wiped her mouth, Wu Siyuan asked straight to the point, "Sister Meiyi, is there anything I can do for you?"

Wu Siyuan knew that Lin Meiyi's mother and daughter had actually had a bad time during this period.

Zhao Jinghong ran away from home and has not returned and has not been contacted.

And those hooligans came to collect debts from time to time, even if Lin Meiyi told them that Zhao Jinghong was not there and she was divorcing Zhao Jinghong, it would not help.

Those hooligans said that "husband and wife pay back debts", and even suggested that Lin Meiyi sell her body to pay back the money.

Moreover, these hooligans would choose time to come over. After the last incident, they did not dare to face Wu Siyuan, so they specifically picked the time when Wu Siyuan was out to come and harass him, and Wu Siyuan would evacuate before he went back.

Wu Siyuan wanted to help, but it was not easy to intervene.

What's more, these hooligans even harassed Zhao Xuemei who was studying.

Zhao Xuemei was in her second year of high school, and because of this incident, her grades plummeted.

The teacher also called Lin Meiyi many times to ask her to pay attention to Zhao Xuemei's academic performance.

So Lin Meiyi was physically and mentally exhausted during this time.

When Wu Siyuan said this, Lin Meiyi's eyes turned red, and the tears couldn't stop falling down.

How could a beautiful young woman be reduced to what she is today?

Wu Siyuan sighed inwardly, and kept handing tissues to Lin Meiyi.

After a while, Lin Meiyi's tears barely stopped, and she said to Wu Siyuan apologetically, "Sorry, Xiaoyuan, I made you laugh."

"It's okay! When you encounter this kind of thing, you are already very strong. We are all under the same roof. If you need help, I can do it. You can say it." Wu Siyuan said sincerely.

"Thank you, Xiaoyuan." Lin Meiyi's tears were on the verge of falling again, but fortunately she controlled it herself. She sobbed for a while, and then said to Wu Siyuan, "Xiaoyuan, I heard from Xiaoxia that you recently Are you hiring?"

During this period of time, Cai Bixia always ran to him when she had nothing to do.

Although I would buy some fruit from him every time I came here, but I had to chat with Wu Siyuan every time, which made her little follower Li Feng feel a little emotional.

Wu Siyuan once mentioned the recruitment matter to Cai Bixia, but she didn't expect her to mention it to Lin Meiyi so soon.

But it's not something that needs to be kept secret.

So Wu Siyuan nodded and said, "Yes, I have this plan recently. I can't handle the fruit shop business alone."

"Hello! Back then you were just a part-time worker, and now you are the boss." Lin Meiyi said emotionally, maybe thinking of her own situation again, with a look of sadness in her eyes, she laughed at herself, "How is it like me?"

Wu Siyuan didn't speak, but silently refilled her half a glass of beer.

Lin Meiyi drank it in one gulp, probably because she was strong and powerful, and she overcame her shame. She boldly asked, "Xiaoyuan, what kind of work are you planning to hire?"

"The main thing is to buy and sell fruits in the store, and to clean up in my spare time. After the fruits are sold out, I will replenish them in the warehouse." Wu Siyuan knew what Lin Meiyi was thinking, so he spoke out all the requirements.

"What time do you go to work?" Lin Meiyi asked.

Usually at eight or nine o'clock, those uncles, aunts, grandpas and grandmas will come back from their morning transport. They are the first customers of the store. Wu Siyuan thought for a while and said, "Eight thirty."

"How many hours do you get off work? What time do you leave work?" Lin Meiyi continued to ask.

"Nine thirty in the evening." If it was Wu Siyuan, it would usually be open until after 10 o'clock, but for Lin Meiyi, forget it.

"That's 13 hours." Lin Meiyi calculated silently and said.

"Yes." Wu Siyuan nodded.

"Then... how much is your monthly salary?" Lin Meiyi gritted her teeth and asked.

"3500 yuan." Wu Siyuan quoted the psychological price.

"It's like this, do you have a rest?" Lin Meiyi asked again.

"One day off a week." Wu Siyuan replied, and mentioned another benefit, "Three meals included!"

Lin Meiyi's eyes lit up again after hearing the "three meals included" benefit.

To be honest, Wu Siyuan's monthly salary of 3500 is not high.

But Lin Meiyi didn't have much choice.

Those gangsters came to harass her every day, and after her husband disappeared, Lin Meiyi had no source of income and could only live on her previous savings.

A woman without a job, living in this first-tier city with a 17-year-old daughter, is really under a lot of pressure.

Lin Meiyi couldn't sleep every night during this period, and her hair fell out desperately when she woke up in the morning.

She desperately needs a job to earn a living.

And here, Wu Siyuan happened to have an opportunity.

Lin Meiyi felt a little ashamed, but the pressure of life still forced her to muster up the courage to say, "Xiaoyuan, do you think I'm suitable?"

"Sister Meiyi, are you going to work with me?" Wu Siyuan asked knowingly.

"It depends on whether your Boss Wu is recruiting or not? Will he dislike me, an old woman?" Lin Meiyi said pretending to be free and easy, but her swinging feet still revealed her inner tension.

"Trick! Sister Meiyi is here with me, and it's too late for me to welcome you." Wu Siyuan grinned and said.

"Then sister Meiyi, the conditions will be as we just agreed. Look at the next few days, whichever day is convenient, just tell me and go to work!" Wu Siyuan also said bluntly.

"Okay, Xiaoyuan... Oh, no, boss, I have another question?" Lin Meiyi changed her words.

"You said."

"Can Xiaomei go to the store to study after school? It's not convenient for her to be at home." Lin Meiyi asked with her head down.

"Of course." Wu Siyuan nodded without objecting.

He noticed that when he agreed to let Lin Meiyi go to work with him, the nameless iron ring in his hand flashed again.
