6:09 am
The sun's rays began to cover most of the city, but many blocks on the ground floor were still shrouded in darkness. The light would not reach the bottom until at least 7 o'clock. At this time, the ground floor was still dark, and the ground in front of us was still dark.
A large area bathed in sunlight is completely different.
"Here, here's your overtime pay last night."
The owner of a shop smiled and handed over a bag containing money. A young man wearing glasses was sorting out the empty wine bottles that would be collected by the wine merchants in the back street. It was very detailed.
I sorted out these empty wine bottles.
"Thank you, boss."
Ji Mo wiped his sweat, turned around and took last night's extra salary. After the boss came in, Ji Mo opened the bag and saw that there was only more than 100 yuan, a lot of it was scattered money, and there was a lot of old money.
.
"It's really difficult."
Ji Mo said and continued to organize. He had been at the bottom for almost a whole year. Ji Mo had been to many bottom areas. When he came down, he was inspired to do something for the city.
In the past, I had only read about the current situation of the urban bottom and the lives of the people at the bottom through reports. At the end of the season, I felt that their lives were difficult because of unfair resources.
This unfairness is reflected in many places, but it all seems difficult to solve at the end of the season.
After sorting out the empty wine bottles, Ji Mo sat at the back door of the store and looked at the wages in his salary bag. He had been busy since noon yesterday, and Ji Mo sighed tiredly.
"People at the bottom work so hard every day that it is difficult to survive and have no time to consider some issues and things."
Ji Mo got up and started walking. He rented a house in the back street of this shop. It only took a few steps to go back to bed. The neighbors here were all good, and there were also gang members, but everyone seemed to get along well.
good.
Ji Mo often thinks about how to let the people at the bottom live. The answer has not yet been found. However, Ji Mo believes that if he continues to work hard, he will definitely find it. How can things be improved?
The living conditions of the lower class are not to forcefully drag the people at the bottom into the pace of the middle and upper classes, but to live according to the rhythm of the people at the bottom.
People at the bottom must be able to live like this. At the end of the season, we walked to the back street, a small street only five or six meters wide. In front of us was a large row of residential areas. Many people lived here.
The rent is 100 yuan.
It used to be a factory building, but it was later bought and converted into an independent rental apartment. The small apartment is only 30 square meters, enough to fit a bed, some tables, chairs and cabinets.
As soon as Ji Mo stepped into the corridor, he felt something on his forehead and something dripped on his head. Ji Mo immediately raised his head and saw a beautiful face illuminated by the light.
"Miss Zhang Ling, are you finished with your work?"
A beautiful girl with big curly hair was smiling and shaking off the water on her hand. Ji Mo blocked it with her hand while smiling and walked quickly upstairs. The woman smiled and handed a cigarette to Ji Mo. Ji Mo shook his head and refused.
, the woman clicked it comfortably and looked at the end of the season with a smile.
"Whenever you come to patronize my business, honest man, I can give you a discount."
Ji Mo laughed awkwardly, took out the key and opened the adjacent room No. 219, and Zhang Ling followed.
"I've been working all day and want to take a break."
"How about I give you a massage? It's free."
Ji Mo just smiled and shook his head, and closed the door after entering, bursts of laughter could be heard outside.
Zhang Ling works in the special service industry, and her workplace is next door. She is woken up every night by the noise next to her. Once she wakes up, she feels a little uncomfortable and cannot sleep well all night.
But at the end of the season, I didn’t blame Zhang Ling because she had a really hard life. Zhang Ling looks like she’s only about 30 years old, but she’s actually in her 40s, but she has a beautiful face and figure, and her fees are not expensive.
50 yuan a time, so her business is very good.
Ji Mo came here three months ago. At the beginning, Ji Mo said something to Zhang Ling, asking Zhang Ling to change her career, but she said that before she knew Zhang Ling's life at all.
He also has a son who lives in a nearby orphanage. Zhang Ling visits him every week and always sends some money there. His son is living a pretty good life.
Zhang Ling not only has a son, but also parents to support. They live in other districts. Every day Zhang Ling goes to the street to solicit customers. When business is not good, Zhang Ling comes to Ji Mo every time, but Ji Mo
He has never patronized her business once, but has lent her money many times, but Zhang Ling would quickly return it every time.
Gradually, I lay on the bed and fell asleep soon.
In a daze, Ji Mo heard knocks on the door. After he got up tiredly, he saw that it was already past 12 o'clock and he had to go to the pub to work at 8 pm. The knock on the door was a bit urgent. Ji Mo got up and walked over to open the door.
"Eat."
Ji Mo smiled awkwardly. He was only wearing a pair of big shorts. Zhang Ling was at the door holding a bowl of noodles, but her dress was a little different from her usual appearance. She was less enchanting and more solemn than usual.
Ji Mo understood that she planned to visit her son, and then smiled and accepted Zhang Ling's face.
"Thank you. How much is it? I'll give it to you later."
Zhang Ling shook her head and walked in.
"Can I ask you a favor?"
Ji Mo nodded without thinking. After putting it down, he felt really hungry and started to eat. Zhang Ling changed her usual behavior and looked very serious.
"My son is going to school for an admissions interview today. Can you please pretend to be his father? I will thank you very much after the interview is over."
After Ji Mo hesitated for a few seconds, he nodded and agreed. Zhang Ling could only rely on this kind of work to save money. She had no special skills. She only went to school for a few years and knew some basic writing and arithmetic. Everything else was fine.
Won't.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Ling smiled and looked at the end of the season when she was eating noodles. The crowds here were all very fond of this man who had only been here for three months.
Honest, kind, and warm-hearted, he always speaks and acts appropriately.
It's just that many people are talking about the origin of this man, because at the end of the season, many things will be said from time to time. These things may only be known to people with higher education, as well as many things from the upper class.
"By the way, I've always felt a little strange. Did you come down to the lower level because your upper-level business failed?"
Zhang Ling asked, and Ji Mo shook his head.
"That's not true. I have my own reasons. This aspect is considered personal privacy."
Zhang Ling laughed, looking at this handsome, innocent and kind man, she actually liked him very much.
"By the way, whoever marries you in the future will probably be very happy. With such a good man, I wonder which girl will have good luck in the future."
Ji Mo shook his head. After a while, Ji Mo found a suit, put it on and followed Zhang Ling out. As soon as he came to the street, Zhang Ling took the opportunity to hold Ji Mo's arm, which made Ji Mo feel a little embarrassed.
"Practice a little, or you'll be betrayed later."
Ji Mo said yes. He knew that the school was very strict about the family status of the students who entered the school. Although it was said to be admission, the Education Association now has a regulation that schools in the area need to make a preliminary assessment of the family status of the students.
Assessment, when students enroll, they will be assigned to different schools based on this assessment.
The purpose of this is to allow students with poorer economic foundations to gather together, which can reduce some discrimination and other unnecessary troubles. Students from these poor families will receive a good education subsidy.
I just learned a little bit at the end of the quarter that the quality of education in these schools where poor students gather is not very good, because many teachers are unwilling to teach in such places because the salary is very poor and there is basically no future.
Ji Mo also knew that there had been a lot of troubles in the past because some poor students could not afford tuition fees. Zhang Ling also knew what Zhang Ling thought. Ji Mo also knew that she did not want her son to go to a school for poor students, but planned to send her son to a school for poor students.
Send to a good school.
"I work in a mid-level company. What do you think?"
Zhang Ling said, Ji Mo felt embarrassed, but still nodded.
The two soon arrived at the orphanage. Zhang Ling planned to send her son to a school in the district next door because her son lived next door. Zhang Ling's parents were in poor health and it was difficult to take care of themselves.
In the end, Zhang Ling had no choice but to send her son to an orphanage.
Regarding Zhang Ling's husband, she never mentioned it, and she never asked about it at the end of the season.
"Mother!"
A cute little boy ran over. He was dressed differently from the other children in the orphanage. As soon as Ji Mo entered, many children came over.
"I'm sorry, I didn't bring any gifts today. I'll be fine tomorrow. I won't forget your gifts."
Ji Mo often visits the orphanage when he has free time. The children like him very much, and Zhang Ling's son also knows Ji Mo.
"Uncle Ji Mo, are you going on a date with your mother today?"
Ji Mo smiled awkwardly. After picking up Zhang Ling's son, Zhang Ling began to talk. If anyone asked later, she would tell others that Ji Mo was his father.
Although Ji Mo was embarrassed, he nodded in agreement. The little guy was very smart. He practiced it several times and was able to say it smoothly.
"Uncle Ji Mo, why don't you be my father? My mother is very beautiful."
The three of them were walking down the street talking and laughing, really like a happy family of three.
