Bring you a story of that year.
Laid-off wife looking for a job:
My wife is worried about being fired.
The last bus left, looking at its hurried back, no matter how I chased it or shouted, it left without my will. It's like a bet. On this cold night, it shows my bumpy future and the helplessness of my fate.
I stood helplessly on a dark street corner, my head was heavy with alcohol, but I still remembered to write home and say that I might be late. My wife is very unhappy. She responded to me with the word "fooling around". Walking on my way home, I was very sad.
Alas, everyone has had a hard time these days. Who doesn't feel sad? Look at me, my wife was laid off a few days ago, and her face, which is no longer young, was covered with a thick layer of frost, which kept the family in a state of first-class combat readiness all day. My daughter and I are walking on thin ice every day, on tenterhooks, watching her face carefully, talking and doing things.
The daughter said, "Dad, please find someone to find a job for your mother quickly, or I will collapse."
I found out the address book, studied it carefully for three long nights, and finally picked out three old classmates who were most promising to help me from the books I remembered; A classmate's wife is a bank president; A classmate used to be in politics, and after several enterprises were brought down, he resigned and went to sea. It is said that his business is booming now and his plate is getting bigger. A classmate who works in a newspaper may have a wider range of ways.
The next day, I called the president first. After chatting for a long time, the old classmates suddenly realized. He disdainfully said to me, "If you want to find a job for your wife, just say so." If you were so slow, even if you had a job, others would have taken it away. "
So, I have to listen to his life lessons, how to find a job ..... and then think about my own situation. I feel that these decades have really been wasted. Finally, the old classmates made a concluding speech: "Looking for a job is like looking for an object, you have to find the right way!" "
I don't know why he made such a statement. He was stupefied, and his old classmate went on to say, "Have you looked for Lao Song?" Lao Song is the second old classmate I want to find. I told him not yet. He said, "Go to him first. His path is wider than mine. "
Alas, I have been a primary school student for most of the day, and now I know that he doesn't want to help!
Help, pull, pull
Helpless, I found a second classmate-boss Song.
I complained: "Because of this, my wife's donkey face has been stretched for a long time, and I can't touch my head for three days and three nights. It's like I left my post. "
Boss Song said, "No, I remember that your wife was beautiful and reasonable."
I had to make up a story, saying that being laid off hit her too hard, which led to a big change in her temperament and asked him for help. Boss Song accepted the matter gladly. I can't thank him enough. Thank him again and again.
You're finished. I dare not hang up right away, because Tan Xing, the boss of Song Dynasty, was very busy, and we chatted for a while. Of course, the topic cannot be separated from those old classmates. Boss Song sighed: "Haven't you seen your old classmates for more than twenty years? You really should get together. Just this weekend. I'll arrange it. Then you are not ashamed? "
I said, "No, it's too late for me to thank you."
When I got home this day and told the good news, my home suddenly warmed up a lot. My wife fried a plate of peanuts, so I can boldly eat a few bites of "sweet potato roast" My daughter is humming "Collapse, Collapse" in the room, but this time her singing is obviously much more relaxed and happy.
My wife pestered the teacher for answers like a primary school student and asked me this and that at the dinner table. For example, is Boss Song my classmate in middle school or college? How's the relationship? What factory or shop does he have? Did he say what she was going to do? How much is the monthly salary? Wait a minute.
I have nothing to say, to say that our relationship was iron when we were students, but times have changed, and I don't know if he really misses his previous feelings or is it a perfunctory remark. I said to my wife, "Don't worry, the day after tomorrow is the weekend. Boss Song wants to get together with some of our old classmates. Then we can talk on the wine table after three rounds of drinking and borrow some wine. At that time, I will solve all your problems. What do you say? "
The wife finally smiled, and the Millennium Cycas bloomed.
Be humiliated and vilified by classmates.
That reunion gave me the biggest blow in my life.
On weekends, I waited in front of the resplendent Dahua Hotel early, wondering how much it would cost for Boss Song to eat in this place. They came late, and then entered the box, good food, good wine and good cigarettes, so happy. Boss Song called nine old classmates. Besides me, the other eight are better: the president's husband, the head of the trust unit, the prosecutor, the newspaper editor, the private boss, the private boss, the lawyer and the official.
The excitement on the wine table belongs to them. They talk about cars, houses, the future and women ... They laugh, scold Bush and criticize * * * as if the world were in their hands. After three rounds of drinking, Boss Song has reached an agreement with * * * officials, the president's husband and private boss, and finally raised his glass-cheers! What investment projects did you discuss with the person in charge of the trust unit-cheers! What questions did you ask prosecutors and lawyers-cheers!
All this has nothing to do with me. I just bowed my head to eat and drink, but soon I felt full, and then I swelled up and had to look at the food I would never see again in my life. I comforted myself that it doesn't matter if boss Song can let his wife work there. But somehow, their conversation suddenly shifted to me. Boss Song, the host, said: "Don't be busy eating, like eating. I'll ask the waiter to help you pack later. Old classmates can't see each other for twenty years, and chatting is very important. "
I froze, what meal! I just caught the food in my mouth. I don't know whether to swallow it or spit it out. I said that my wife was laid off and looking for a job. Their speeches were very enthusiastic. Some of them said that it was interesting to let my old classmates in finance give me an interest-free loan and lend my wife10 million to set up a factory to do business and work for others. Work for yourself and be your own boss! Soldiers who don't want to be marshals are not good soldiers; Some people say that it is better to help others to work than to help themselves. It's best to sell things online. I have a friend who has earned a villa for two years. Some people say that life is too short to be laid off at once. How nice it is to plant flowers, raise fish and walk the dog at home! Do you know what happiness is? Happiness is a person living healthily.
Hearing this, I suddenly stood up and looked at them without saying a word. They suddenly stared at me like aphasia. I said to boss Song, "I'm sorry, I've been trying to tell you just now, but I haven't had a chance. My wife has found a job and is working the night shift today. I have to go back early because my daughter is alone at home. "
I left without waiting for their answer. As soon as I got out of the box, I heard the boss of Song angrily say, "Shit, you didn't say anything when you got a job. What is the problem! "
Coming out of Dahua Hotel, crossing Chun Qing Road, heading north, sogou Road is a little dark, and occasionally a taxi passes by me like a ghost. I tried calling several times, but I held back. It costs at least 20 yuan to take a taxi home from here, which is the food for two or three days at home.
Walking to the north of sogou Road, my mobile phone rang and my wife asked me where I was. I said I was on my way, and now I'm at the north exit of sogou Road. I think I will go home in half an hour. My wife seems to have a hunch, because I made an appointment at her office today, but she didn't mention anything about work.
On the way, my wife called me twice again. Nearly midnight, I walked to the intersection of the mid-levels and saw the familiar and lonely figure, and my eyes could not help but be sour. I said angrily, "Why are you here? How unsafe it is at night. "
My wife took my arm and said, "I'm fine." But you'll be fine. If anything happens to you, our family will be ruined. "
My heart is sour again. I don't know whose stereo is still singing at midnight: but I can't give you the answer you want/but you must be happy. ......
This song aroused my tears, and I held my wife tightly in my arms. The wife said, "I have an appointment with some little sisters. Tomorrow we will carry sewing machines and set up stalls in the street. "
I suddenly fell on my wife's thin shoulder and cried like a wounded woman. My wife patted me on the back and said, "I didn't know you were a thief." Your bones are too hard ... "
"I will leave my classmates for several years, but I hope to spread my wings and fly in the future." I really miss those years when white clothes are fluttering. At that time, students ate, lived and slept, all of them were classmates, and they were happy. However, society is a melting pot, and time can erase many innocent feelings. Those wonderful years should be regarded as memories of leisure time.
