My name is Li Wei, I am 27 years old. Because I didn’t study hard in the early years, I could only work everywhere to make a living. Over the years, I haven’t saved a penny, let alone buy a house.
I am now doing sales in a real estate agency. Because of my poor eloquence, I have not issued an order for several months.
In our store, there is another salesman named Zhao Wenli. He should be 1 year older than me, not tall, about 1.6 meters tall, and he looks pretty. I was moved when I saw her at the first sight.
I have been in this store for more than 8 months, and four of them have successfully confessed. Although these people have left the store one after another, I was thinking, if I confess my love to Zhao Wenli, will she agree to me?
But when I think of me having no money, I hesitated. After all, if there is no house or car, how can a girl marry you?
One afternoon, I just came back from looking outside. I was about to get off work, so I packed up and was about to leave. At this time, my client called me, "Xiao Li, aunt told you, talk to the owner of the house today, if it can be cheaper by 10,000 yuan, I will want it."
I hurriedly said, "Okay, Aunt Chen, don't worry, I will definitely negotiate the price for you."
After hanging up the phone, I was about to go to the store manager to see if this house could be 10,000 yuan cheaper. At this time, Zhao Wenli suddenly came back. When she saw me, she said, "Li Wei, are you free at night? My book faucet is broken. Can you help me repair it?"
"I have time, I have time." I quickly replied, "I understand this routine. It must be that Zhao Wenli has taken a fancy to me, otherwise, there are so many male colleagues in the store, why do you just call me to repair the faucet alone?"
Thinking of this, I was so happy that I forgot about talking about housing prices with the homeowner. I hurriedly bought a manual for the use of a plumber and electrician, and then studied it carefully at home.
Soon, it was the time that Zhao Wenli and I agreed upon. I followed the address and came to Zhao Wenli's door and knocked on the door. It was not Zhao Wenli who opened the door, but a strange middle-aged man who looked 40 years old, but he should be a rich man in terms of his dress.
At first I thought I had walked through the wrong door, but at this time, Zhao Wenli walked out of the inside and saw that it was me, and said, "Li Wei, you are here. Thank you for your hard work. It's leaking. Please help me see. I have something to do. Let's go first. After repairing it later, you can just leave."
After saying this, Zhao Wenli and the middle-aged man left, leaving me alone in the living room. I thought, "That person must be Zhao Wenli's brother, it must be."
Thinking of this, I took out the tools and replaced the water pipe in the kitchen with a new one, but I did not leave, but waited for Zhao Wenli to come back in the living room because I decided something and I wanted to confess to Zhao Wenli, and she would definitely agree.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was not until midnight that Zhao Wenli came back, and the middle-aged man came back with her, but it can be seen that Zhao Wenli was drunk.
I wanted to go up and help Zhao Wenli, but was blocked by the middle-aged man. He said, "Is it the water pipe repairer? Is it done? Oh, Lili hasn't given you money yet, right? You can wait a moment."
He helped Zhao Wenli to the sofa, then took out 200 yuan from his wallet and handed it to me, and said, "For this, don't forget to bring the door with you when you go out."
I took the 200 yuan a little dull. Even if I can't figure it out, I should know what happened. I threw it heavily on the door and walked downstairs, feeling very heavy inside.
Just when I just went downstairs, I met another colleague of mine, Wang Dan. Wang Dan rarely talks in the store on weekdays, so I know very little about her. I only know that she works very hard and can negotiate one or two orders every month, which really makes me envious.
"Hello, Wang Dan, you live here too." I greeted her with a smile, and she just smiled slightly and went upstairs, as if she was very anxious.
I smiled awkwardly, but I didn't care either. I walked straight to the bicycle garage and was about to ride my bike home. At this time, I had already pushed the bicycle out. Wang Dan rushed down from the building and saw me. He hurriedly grabbed me and said, "Li Wei, hurry up, help me, my dad, he."
Hearing Wang Dan panting and couldn't say a complete sentence, I quickly interrupted her and said, "Okay, stop talking, take me there."
I followed Wang Dan to the top floor of the sixth floor. As soon as I entered the house, I saw an old man lying on the ground, looking like he was already unconscious.
I immediately understood and said, "Let's go to the hospital first. I'll carry him downstairs. You go and take a taxi first and wait for me downstairs."
Wang Dan hurriedly interrupted me and said, "There's another one."
"Ah?" I looked in the direction Wang Dan pointed, and saw an old lady in the inner room lying on the bed, waving her hand in the air, muttering that she didn't know what she was saying, and it seemed that the situation was not good either.
Wang Dan said, "Li Wei, can you take my dad to the hospital first? I have to stay and take care of my mom."
"No problem, you can rest assured at home." After that, I carried the old man on my back and rushed downstairs, took a taxi and ran to the hospital. Fortunately, I went in time and the old man was not seriously injured. However, on this trip, I spent more than 8,000 hospitalization fees, which really made me feel a little distressed.
On the afternoon of the next day, Wang Dan settled his mother and then took the time to rush to the hospital. I told her, "Your dad is fine, you can go home in two days, it's okay, I'll help you watch, you go home and take care of your mother first."
"Thank you then." After that, Wang Dan left the food, stayed in the hospital for more than half an hour, and then hurriedly left. I think that the family should be inseparable from people.
Looking at Wang Dan's leaving back, I couldn't help but sigh, thinking to myself, "What a strong woman, but she has to take care of two parents who can't take care of themselves. I'm afraid that if someone else has changed, I'll have collapsed long ago."
"However, Wang Dan's cooking skills are pretty good. fried pork with shredded potatoes should be prepared for me. After all, her father can only drink porridge and cannot eat meat." Thinking of this, I asked the old man, "Old old." Grandpa, do you want to eat meat? "
The old man is quite clear-headed, but his hands and feet are not sensitive and he cannot get out of bed to move. He only heard the old man say, "Young man Gui Geng, do you have a girlfriend? Do you want me to introduce one to you?"
"No, I am a poor boy, who would like to go with me? Old man, you can't even go out, and you can introduce a partner to me. Don't joke with me, hurry up and drink the porridge." I picked up a bowl of porridge and handed it to the old man.
The old man did not drink porridge, but continued, "I'm telling you the serious business. You can see that you are a kind-hearted person. My daughter has a miserable life. If it weren't for me and my wife, she wouldn't have to take care of us so hard."
"Old man, are you the only daughter? Don't you have a son or something?" I asked tentatively.
The old man said, "I have a son, but I haven't been in contact for many years. By the way, what do you think of my daughter?"
"Ah?" I almost didn't react, "Well, a pretty good person, very filial. In this society, daughters as filial as your daughter are rare and worthy of praise."
"That's good, that's good." The old man said.
"That's good? What's good?" I suddenly realized that the old man wanted to introduce his daughter to me, right?
Two days later, the old man was discharged from the hospital and I sent the old man home. Before leaving, the old man suddenly said to me, "Young man, I don't know how to thank you. Tomorrow is Wang Dan's birthday, come and have a meal."
"Birthday, congratulations, um, I will definitely come for dinner." I said goodbye to Wang Dan and left the building as if I ran away. During this period, I met Zhao Wenli downstairs, and she greeted me enthusiastically.
I smiled and responded to her because I noticed a young man standing next to her.
The next day, when I was about to go to Wang Dan’s house for dinner, I received a call from Zhao Wenli. She cried very hard on the phone, saying that she had broken up with her boyfriend and was very sad, so she invited me to have a meal and talk.
I decisively rejected her, and she said, "What's wrong, do you think I'm poor?"
Zhao Wenli's word "Yes" made me feel very uncomfortable. I didn't answer her, but hung up the phone directly, thinking, "I don't just think of you being poor."
At Wang Dan's house, Wang Dan's parents were sitting in a wheelchair, and everyone was lying around a cake to congratulate Wang Dan's birthday. Everyone was very happy, talking and laughing, and Wang Dan might have made a wish. She said, "I hope my parents can live a hundred years long."
I looked at Wang Dan and her parents, and suddenly felt that although life was a little harder, it should be a very happy thing to be with my relatives.
Wang Dan suddenly said, "I know you are a good person. Can you take care of your parents for me?"
I said, "Are you confessing to me?"
Wang Dan blushed and nodded gently.
I looked at such a big family and smiled knowingly. Everyone will bless us.
