Liu Jun, who was holding a vegetable bag, was held by Bai Mei and walked grandly in the community. He had no intention of admiring the extreme beauty of the blue sky and clear water real estate. Liu Jun had no intention of browsing the waterside pavilions and fashionable men and women in the community. First,
When I entered Baimei's house, I was filled with anxiety.
Liu Jun knew nothing about Bai Mei's family background and had no mental preparation. Without any warning, he was held by Bai Mei's arm and walked like a lover. Liu Jun did feel that happiness came too suddenly, but he also felt that such happiness was a bit empty.
, but in the face of happiness, who can refuse happiness? What’s more, Liu Jun is a farm boy whose mother passed away long ago and has little maternal care?
Liu Jun is also a big boy with various emotions and desires. Although he is not too old at twenty years old, at 1.82 meters tall, he looks much older than his peers.
Baimei's house is a single apartment with one bedroom and one living room, a kitchen and bathroom, fifty or sixty square meters, and it is a fully decorated room. It is a welfare house allocated by the TV station for single workers in the group to buy at a low price.
Liu Jun didn't ask Bai Mei why her parents weren't around, nor why she was still single. You know, for a beautiful TV anchor like Bai Mei, there must be many people pursuing her, so how could she be single?
Although he had many questions, Liu Jun still felt that he shouldn't ask Bai Mei rashly.
Bai Mei took out two pairs of cardboard slippers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to Liu Jun and Mute. She said they were free disposable slippers provided by the hotel that she brought back on a business trip. They would occasionally be used by female colleagues at the station when they came to visit.
Taking the vegetable bag from Liu Jun's hand, Bai Mei asked Mute to put the glass jar containing the old tortoise on the balcony, and then asked Liu Jun and Mute to sit wherever they wanted. She was busy cooking, so she wouldn't greet them.
, and specifically added that no man has ever entered this room.
Liu Jun put on his slippers and glanced at the shoe cabinet. There were indeed no men's shoes.
There is a fresh scent of perfume in the room, which is refreshing and pleasant. I don’t know what brand of perfume it is. There are several framed oil paintings hanging on the wall, and there is a long glass in front of the solid wood sofa painted red.
There is no ashtray on the coffee table. It must be that no man has ever been to Baimei's bachelor apartment.
The decoration of the room was simple and elegant. Liu Jun thought that it would be great for a single woman to have such a house. However, his family rented in Hongwei Street, a noisy place with many cars and cars. He didn't know when he would be able to own one in the provincial capital.
A house of your own.
According to the current housing prices, the urban center of the province is more than 20,000 yuan per square meter. To buy a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms or two bedrooms and one living room, it is not more than two to three million yuan. With a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan from a part-time job, you have to work without food.
It takes a century to afford a house with the current price, not to mention that the damn house prices are still rising. It takes a lifetime just to get a house that you can live in in the city. This life calculation is not worth it.
As for housing prices and housing, that is a major concern for national leaders. Liu Jun is a migrant worker in the city and is still unemployed. He just thinks about a house worth two to three million. Survival is the most important thing.
It would be great if we could settle down in the provincial capital. There is no point in thinking about anything else.
Liu Jun turned on the TV and randomly adjusted the TV channel. The screen was a news replay from Jiangnan TV. On the screen, Bai Mei looked dignified and had bright eyes. News about Jiangnan Mayor Shen Junru's contacts with overseas investors was being broadcast.
Looking at Bai Mei's beautiful expression on the screen and listening to the sound of running water in the kitchen sink, Liu Jun was in a trance. How could the beautiful anchor who was in the hall or in the kitchen be on good terms with him?
"Oh, who cares? This girl is nice to you and doesn't want anything from you. Just take it as far as you go. Anyway, I'm a pauper." Liu Jun sighed weakly. If he didn't feel inferior at all, that would be fine.
It's fake. After all, a rural child who failed to pass the exam suddenly fell in love with a beautiful anchor. It's a bit incredible. I wonder if this is considered a love affair with a beautiful girl?
"Brother Jun, have you rested well? Come and kill the fish for me." Bai Mei's pleasant voice came from the kitchen.
Liu Jun stood up and pushed open the transparent fiberglass isolation door. The pots and pans in the kitchen were neat and orderly. Bai Mei was wearing a chef's hat and an apron, looking very housewife-like.
"Huh, I don't kill animals." Bai Mei was washing vegetables in the sink and nibbling the mandarin fish on the chopping board. There was a kitchen knife next to the mandarin fish.
Liu Jun slaughtered the fish without saying a word. The country boy was a good fisherman when fishing in the pond, and he was also very familiar with the techniques of killing fish. He pressed the mandarin fish tightly with his palm, disemboweled it, dug out the gills, removed the guts and scaled it.
, then wash it and make steamed mandarin fish or braised mandarin fish.
"Amei, if you don't kill animals, why did you buy fish?" Liu Jun took the fish to the pond and cleaned it.
After Baimei washed the vegetables, she was cutting long eggplants. Her knife skills were very good. She kept slicing an eggplant while slicing it. She said while cutting: "I don't kill animals. Steamed mandarin fish is nutritious. You have been working for a month."
, I’ve lost weight, don’t you know? I need to make up for it.”
Liu Jun said, thoughtfully. Bai Mei's concern made Liu Jun unable to accept it at once, "Amei, I can also cook, do you want my help?"
"It's your first time at home. How can I ask you to cook? Let's do it next time." Bai Mei smiled at Liu Junwaner, turned on the piped gas, shook up the iron pot, and tapped it with a spatula, looking like a grand chef.
, chatting with Liu Jun about home cooking while cooking.
"Brother Jun, you can also cook."
"Yes, my mother passed away early, and my father got up early and worked in the dark to farm the fields, and sometimes had to stay up all night to drain water. I was usually the one cooking at home during the holidays. The more I cooked, the more I figured out how to do it.
, I’ll make something delicious for you next time I have the chance.”
"That's great. What's your best dish?"
“Roasted beans with eggplant.”
"ah?"
"Carrots cooked with salt."
"ah!"
…
Liu Jun had a sumptuous lunch at Bai Mei's house. It must be said that Bai Mei's cooking skills were excellent. Both Liu Jun and Dumb enjoyed the meal. They also drank some red wine. The label of the red wine had some foreign characters that I couldn't understand.
Liu Jun regretted not studying hard and didn't even know what he drank.
When leaving Baimei's house, when the mute went downstairs first, Baimei gave Liu Jun a hug. Liu Jun was excited all afternoon. Baimei told him that she would give him a surprise in two days, which made Liu Jun look forward to it.
After leaving the blue sky and clear water and leaving the community, in order to save money, I didn’t take a taxi.
Liu Jun and the mute walked to the bus stop. It was still crowded and no one was queuing up. A pair of young men and women wearing yellow sun hats, badges and whistles, holding triangular red flags of "Jiangnan Volunteers" were talking.
Laugh, too lazy to manage.
The traffic police coordinator at the intersection next to him pulled up a rope but did not stop the electric cars and pedestrians who were forcing themselves to run through the red light. It was really unrealistic for two volunteers to direct citizens rushing to catch the bus to line up and get on the bus.
Jiangnan City is the capital city of Pohu Province. In order to keep up with the trend and adapt to the pace of metropolitan development, Daxing Metro has been under construction in recent years. Line 1 across the provincial capital is about to be completed, and construction of Line 2 passing through Jiangnan Railway Station has also begun.
, it is said that Line 6 has been planned, which shows the magnanimity and courage of the city managers.
As for the construction of a subway, it is no wonder that the traffic in the provincial capital is in chaos. The government's slogan is, "Jiangnan Subway, bound for spring."
For long-term transportation convenience.”
A subway has been built. It’s great. I must take root in the provincial capital. I have to be a part of the prosperity of this city in the future. Liu Jun’s heart was surging.
It's just that you save money by not taking a taxi, but it's the first time you take a bus in the provincial capital. I'm really confused about how to get to Naoxin Village. So, go check the bus route signs on the platform.
Can you find the name of the bus stop in Naoxin Village? As a result, there are 12 bus lines passing through Lantian Bishui Community, but none of them go directly to Naoxin Village. I'm afraid you have to transfer.
I have no choice but to ask Jiangnan volunteers.
Liu Jun walked towards the young men and women who were joking and chatting, and looked at the pretty female volunteer. Knowing that in this city women are called beauties and men are called handsome men, he asked: "Beauty, handsome man, hello. I
It’s my first time coming to Jiangnan. How can I get to Hongwei Street in Naoxin Village by car?”
"What? Naoxin Village? Hongwei Street?" The female volunteer blinked in confusion and asked her male colleague, who also shook his head.
The female volunteer replied politely: "Sorry, we didn't know there was a place called Naoxin Village in the city."
"No way, you are volunteers. Why should you be volunteers if you are not familiar with the local conditions?" Liu Jun was a little surprised. He remembered what a glorious profession volunteers were at the 08th Beijing Olympics, and they even participated in the opening ceremony.
The volunteers took the oath, and those passionate volunteers shouted such a loud slogan: "I volunteer, I am happy, I learn, I grow."
"I'm sorry, we were temporarily transferred from the administrative agencies without training. We are all admitted to the municipal government from other places. We are really not familiar with the local area. We can't even finish our jobs. Why do we come here to maintain traffic? It's not our volition at all.
." The female volunteer blushed and told the truth.
"Yes, we were forced." The male volunteer responded, showing that it was not their incompetence and looked helpless.
"Oh, it's okay, I'll ask again." Liu Jun said, "What's wrong with this city? Volunteers are not volunteers. They go to the city to work but are not paid their due wages. The city is full of luxurious high-rise buildings.
Like Aunt Liu Jun, who has been a worker all her life but cannot afford a wedding house for her son?
"Wait a minute, let me ask the driver." The male volunteer stopped Liu Jun. He was quite enthusiastic and took the initiative to get on a bus that had just stopped. He stepped forward and asked the driver about the bus ride to Naoxin Village.
He told Liu Jun in detail how to take the bus and asked if he had any change. There were no ticket sellers for buses in the city.
"Thank you." Liu Jun politely thanked the volunteers. He felt that the personnel in the administrative agency were quite qualified, and lamented that it was really unjustifiable to force qualified people to become volunteers.
