Chapter 88 Cousins

After dinner, we were in a nearby cafe.

"It turns out you are not a migrant worker. I'm sorry, I thought..."

After learning that Zhou Ming was not a diligent and studious migrant worker from a rural area in her impression, Su Yuxiang looked embarrassed and realized that she had made a preconceived mistake.

"It's hard to find a job for college students now. There are just as many as dogs on the street. I graduated from a third-rate or second-rate college. Sometimes I want to make more money and relieve some pressure on my parents."

Zhou Ming took a sip of the coffee in his cup and didn't want to explain too much about his miserable past.

This explanation, however, painted a picture in Su Yuxiang's mind of a college student from a poor family, running around for jobs in the society and repeatedly hitting the wall. However, in order not to worry about his parents, in order to reduce the burden on the family, he tried hard to try various opportunities, even Even the dirty and tired bricklayers could relax and be willing to work.

However, even in this situation, he still did not forget his original intention, persisted in learning, was kind-hearted, and acted bravely... In contrast, the graduates of her philosophy department at Hangzhou University of Science and Technology did not have good jobs due to professional reasons. It turns out that among her students, some relied on connections to find new ways, some gave up on their ideals and gave up on themselves, and some went astray.

It is rare and rare to find people like him who can always stick to themselves and keep their true intentions.

She wanted to help this man who had helped her.

Introduce him to a job.

This is not difficult for her. Both her parents have been senior professors at Hangzhou University of Science and Technology for many years. Among her uncles and relatives, there are many high-ranking political officials, and several uncles are all CEOs of companies. Although the company is not very large, But arranging one or two tasks is just a phone call away.

She has more than a dozen promising students who have solved their employment problems through this method.

"No, no, no, my current income is enough to support myself. I don't need to look for another job. Thank you for your kindness!" Zhou Ming rejected the kindness.

"Don't be embarrassed! With your academic qualifications, it's no problem for me to ask my uncle to arrange a job for you with a starting salary of 5,000. If you perform well, it's not a big problem to increase it to 10,000 within two or three years. Is it much better than your current freelancing job? Give me your phone number and I’ll call my uncle when I get back.”

Su Yuxiang knew a little about freelancing. It was nothing more than temporary workers, small business vendors, salesmen, micro-business and other jobs. Freedom was freedom, but there was little money, and there were many scams and abductions.

The income is not stable yet, so it is better to find a stable and decent job.

"No need! Miss Su, I'm really not short of money now. You'd better go and help those in need. I don't have this need!"

"Why do you have such a good reputation? Who doesn't need to help each other in this society? I'm helping you because I think you are worthy of my help. If it were someone else, I wouldn't be willing to help if you asked me." It's better for you, People take the initiative to help you, but you still don’t appreciate it?

For a time, Su Yuxiang found out that this man, who had a good impression at first, had a bit of excessive self-esteem, couldn't stand women doing favors for him, and had serious male chauvinism!

I really don’t need your help!

Zhou Ming wanted to say this out loud, but he also knew that in front of some women who believed in death, the more they explained, the more they would become firmer in their reasoning, so it was best not to argue with her.

"Miss Su, you are a university professor in the Department of Philosophy. You have profound attainments in philosophy. Recently I have been studying MAO... I have a few questions to ask you..."

Zhou Ming changed the topic and asked a few philosophical questions.

Regarding the proletarian regime, Zhou Ming put forward many views and hypotheses, some of which were categorically rejected by Su Yuxiang. There were also some views that stood out to her and triggered discussions and arguments between the two. However, these views had never been used in reality. After practicing it, although Su Yuxiang tried his best to criticize it, he could not deny that some of his fantastic ideas did have certain operational feasibility.

This kind of ideological discussion like sparks hitting the earth continued until many employees from nearby companies got off work, and the number of customers in the coffee shop increased rapidly.

"Hey, it's getting late. It's time to go to work. I'm very sorry, Professor Su. That's all we're talking about today. I have to go to work."

Zhou Ming took out his cell phone and looked at it, and found that it was already six o'clock in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, he spent a whole afternoon chatting with Professor Su, who was proficient in philosophical theory (he was really knowledgeable, so he was respectfully called Professor), and he learned a lot. He almost forgot that at 5:30 every afternoon, it was his time to do carving.

Su Yuxiang also stood up and moved her waist. She found that she hadn't chatted with anyone for such a long time. She was still chatting with a man she had just met and was three years younger than herself.

It happened that this man put forward many opinions on some academic issues that even she, a professor in the philosophy department, could not refute. The more this brainstorm went to the end, the less useful information she could come up with.

When he heard that he was about to go to work, he stretched out his slender hand, put it in front of the man and said: "Bring your phone over here, save the number, and discuss it next time when you are free."

Su Yuxiang actually wanted to introduce him to a more serious job. For such a smart mind to engage in freelancing without doing his job, isn't this a waste or what?

"All right."

After unlocking the mobile phone with fingerprints, Zhou Ming handed over his oppa mobile phone. After a while, a bell rang in the woman's bag, and she took out an Apple mobile phone that looked similar to his mobile phone but was actually several times more expensive. 7 mobile phone, press the hang up button, and with a flick of the jade finger, his contact information is saved.

After saying goodbye to the woman, he picked up his bulging backpack and left the cafe. Zhou Ming went straight to the pedestrian square where he usually stayed on this street.

As soon as he arrived at the pedestrian square, several sharp-eyed passers-by spotted him and approached him one after another.

"Master Sculptor, I've been waiting for you for a long time, why did you just come?"

"Master sculptor, I brought my girl ticket here. First, I will carve a cute Q shape for her, and then I will carve a pair of 'Condor Heroes' for us." A young man came over with his girlfriend in his arms.

"Young man, don't you know the rules? Master's woodcarvers can only carve one per person. If you want three at once, what will others do? Master carver, forget about this young man, and carve one for my granddaughter first." The half-haired old man, He said with a granddaughter in his arms.

"Master sculptor, I've been in line for three days. Here's 2,000 yuan. Let me carve one for my wife. Her birthday is coming soon. I want to give her the best birthday present!"

"I've been waiting in line for four or five days, master sculptor, here is 5,000 yuan, no matter what, you have to carve one for me first!" Another person threw out half a wad of huge money and said.

"You offer 5,000, I'll offer 10,000!" said the man who was eager to give his wife a birthday gift.

"Don't worry, don't worry, the one who said 10,000, you come here first, I will carve one for you first! The one who gave 5,000 is ranked second, and the rest will be discussed after I finish carving these two."

While taking out a folding chair, tool bag and wood from his large backpack, Zhou Ming shouted loudly, "If you can make more money, you will not make it in vain. Who makes his craftsmanship worth this price?"

Outside the crowd.

Su Yuxiang, who was just on the way but accidentally saw this scene, opened her beautiful eyes. Through the gap between the dense crowd, she watched him sculpt three vivid wood carvings in a short period of time, which aroused amazement from the surroundings. At this time, he was even more shocked and couldn't believe it.

Su Yuxiang, who was unable to see the internal situation clearly due to too many crowds of onlookers, could only have a dazed expression, and unknowingly found that she had returned home—a teacher's apartment in Hangke University.

Pushing open the door, a burst of singing came from the living room.

"La la la la, la la la la, my Feifei baby, let me give you some honey!"

It turned out that the cousin Song Feifei, who was watching the TV series "Dancing Girl" in the living room, was holding a wooden toy in her hand and was doing extremely childish movements in front of the TV.

Su Yuxiang shook her head helplessly. This cousin, who was about to take the postgraduate entrance examination, was already over 20 physically, but her mental age was probably less than 12.

etc……

That wooden sculpture she's holding?

"Feifei, what are you holding in your hand? Can you show it to your sister?" Su Yuxiang walked over and asked.

"No!"

Song Feifei pursed her mouth, shook her head, and vigilantly hid the wood carving in her hand under the pillow on the sofa—since her "Baby Feifei" was accidentally dropped on the ground by her best friend and got a scar, she never again I will not lend "Feifei Baby" to anyone to play with.

"Sister doesn't want your baby. I just want to ask, where did your wood carving come from?"

"The master carver carved it for me."

"Who is the master sculptor and what does he look like? Can you describe it to me?" Su Yuxiang asked anxiously.

"He is just an ordinary person, very young, but his wood carving skills are really good. One day I will ask him to carve more 'Feifei babies' for me and create a 'Feifei Army'..."

"??"

Seeing how much her cousin couldn't put it down for the really cute wooden puppet, Su Yuxiang felt a wry smile in her heart.

You're such a deceitful migrant worker!
