Notebook for teachers and students of the School of Journalism

Soon the school dormitory was completely without water and electricity, and Lu Xihan also packed up his things and moved to the cubicle behind the braised chicken restaurant.There is only a small bed inside. Although there is no air conditioning or heating, the advantage is that there is water and electricity without charging, and two quilts can make it through.

Every day after that, Lu Xihan would ask Luo Xiaoling if she had any orders from Mr. Gu in the Yunlin District. Luo Xiaoling was annoyed by asking, and when she saw him, she said, "No, get out!"

Lu Xihan thought, maybe Gu Baishi really doesn't like braised chicken.After he finished this job, the chance of meeting Gu Baishi was even slimmer, and Gu Baishi still didn't know his name, which made him a little inexplicably melancholy.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, the boss asked everyone in the store to go home to celebrate the New Year, and gave them all a small red envelope.

Lu Xihan had nowhere to go, so he asked the boss to promise him to continue living in the cubicle in the store.

"Don't use electricity and water blindly in the store by yourself, I will check!" The boss repeatedly urged.

"Don't worry, I'll charge my phone at most." Even if Lu Xihan wanted to use electricity, there was no place available.

Before leaving, Luo Xiaoling said to him, "Xiaohan, I left some dumplings and glutinous rice balls in the refrigerator. If you are hungry, you can cook them yourself."

"Okay, thank you Miss Xiaoling, I will definitely eat it for you." Lu Xihan said with a smile.

"You can eat whatever you want, anyway, it will expire in a few days." Luo Xiaoling waved her hand and left with her bag.

Lao Li pulled some noodles, and Lao Deng bought some eggs and vegetables for him, and left them in the store, so that he could have a good year by himself.

After sending everyone away, Lu Xihan decided to go out and look for temporary work.

There are millions of college students in Wenhua City, and the whole city seems to be half empty during the winter vacation. There are hardly many college students on the streets.But as the Spring Festival approached, Wenhua City was bustling with traffic, families were shopping for New Year’s goods, shopping malls and department stores were decorated with lights and festoons, and "Gong Xi Fa Cai" resounded everywhere in red.While humming, Lu Xihan looked around to see if there was a job advertisement at the door of the supermarket.

Finally, he saw a poster recruiting a salesperson at the entrance of a chain supermarket. He touched his student ID card and ID card in his pocket and walked in.

This is a very large supermarket, and it is still open for Chinese New Year, but many employees have gone home for the Chinese New Year, so they hired some temporary workers, so Lu Xihan's application went smoothly, and was assigned by the supermarket manager to the fruit section, responsible for selling Citrus, if they sell well, there is a certain commission.

On New Year's Eve, he came to the supermarket early, put on a temporary work permit, and started to make morning preparations.

The aunt selling apples looked at him and asked, "Young man, how old are you this year? Why don't you go home for the New Year?"

Lu Xihan is trying hard to arrange the oranges into a pyramid, "It's going to be nineteen, come out and experience life."

The aunt helped him pick up the citrus that fell on the ground, "How can I experience life after Chinese New Year's Eve? If it weren't for my daughter not coming home this year, I would not be working here. Your parents don't miss you?"

Lu Xihan hesitated for a while, then said, "My parents are traveling abroad to enjoy the world of two."

The aunt sighed, "I'm sorry, your parents are really disgraceful, my daughter has no choice but to work." After speaking, she began to talk about how busy her daughter is with work in Beijing, how difficult blind dates are, how high-sighted and so on.Lu Xihan was not easy to interrupt, so he could only bite the bullet and respond.

The manager of the supermarket came over and looked at them, and the aunt hurriedly lowered her head and moved the apples in the box to the fruit counter.

In the afternoon, the number of people gradually increased. I thought it was because I didn't have enough New Year's goods, so I came to buy some things again.

"The big tangerines produced in Yichang are sweet and delicious, welcome to try!" Lu Xihan hawked them with a loudspeaker.

"Brother, give me one!" A little boy led by his mother grabbed Lu Xihan's trouser leg and raised his head.

Lu Xihan peeled a big orange and gave it to him, "Take it and eat it."

The boy's mother was a little embarrassed, so she said, "Weigh two catties for me."

"Two catties are not much, and the family will finish eating soon during the Chinese New Year. Would you like five catties?" Lu Xihan asked with a smile.

"Five catties, five catties!" The little boy on the side followed suit.

In the end, the lady hesitated for a while, bought five catties and left.

Aunt Apple said, "I wanted to remind you not to give a whole one to try, but I didn't expect you to be quite clever."

Lu Xihan lowered his head and said in a low voice, "If there is a child who wants it, you can give it a petal, and his parents will accept it calmly, but if you give it a whole, they will be embarrassed not to buy some."

Aunt Apple gave a thumbs up, "You're right!"

At this time, another small hand grabbed Lu Xihan's trouser leg. He looked down and saw a very cute little girl, blinking her big eyes at her.

"Brother, I want to eat oranges."

The little girl grabbed a man's suit pants with her other hand. Lu Xihan straightened her waist and looked up, but was stunned.

"Mr. Gu?"

Gu Boshi was wearing a black windbreaker, pushing a shopping cart full of toys and snacks in his hand, his tall figure stood out in the crowded supermarket, many women passing by quietly looked at him and the people around him little girl.

Gu Baishi recognized Lu Xihan, he was a little surprised, he glanced at the pile of oranges in front of Lu Xihan, frowned and said,

"It's Chinese New Year today, why haven't you come home yet?" Could it be that you dropped out of school to work, but ran away from home?

Lu Xihan's surprise when he saw Gu Bai was greatly diluted by this sentence. He didn't feel much when Aunt Apple asked him the same question before, and he could even make a joke, but when asked by Gu Bai, for some reason he A little sad.

He said vaguely, "I'll go back tonight."

Gu Baishi nodded and said, "Go home early, don't let your family worry."

Lu Xihan's eyes curled up when he heard the smile, Gu Baishi really felt like a teacher.

"I want to eat oranges!" The little girl beside him shook Gu Baishi's hand.

It was only then that Lu Xihan remembered that there was a little girl, "Mr. Gu, is this your daughter? So cute." He peeled an orange and handed it to the girl.

"Thank you, Brother Orange." The little girl took it with both hands and thanked obediently.

Gu Baishi looked down at him, "Why do you think that, she is my niece."

Lu Xihan said embarrassingly, "Because I look a bit like it." They were all pretty.

Gu Baishi casually picked up an orange and looked at it, "You don't work in that store anymore?"

Lu Xihan said, "It's still there, but it won't start until the third year of junior high school, so I'm selling oranges here these days. By the way, do you like oranges? These are all native to Yichang. I feel like eating them myself It's delicious."

Seeing his enthusiasm for sales, Gu Bai smiled and said, "Is there a bonus for selling more?"

Lu Xihan said in a daze, "Let's have a little commission."

Gu Baishi put down the orange in his hand, "Then help me weigh twenty catties."

Lu Xihan's eyes widened, "Are you sure you've finished eating?"

Gu Bai thought for a moment, "It's okay, there are quite a lot of family members."

Lu Xihan finally took out a big box. He picked out the biggest and reddest oranges and put them in the box, weighed more than 20 catties, put a price tag on them, pushed a shopping cart over, and put a box of oranges in the box. After entering, it was handed over to Gu Baishi.

When Gu Baishi was pushing two shopping carts and was about to go out with his niece, Lu Xihan suddenly remembered something,

"Mr. Gu!"

Gu Baishi stopped and turned to look at him.

"I haven't told you my name yet." He held up his temporary work permit on his chest,

"My name is Lu Xihan, the eve of New Year's Eve, the coldness of winter."

Although it is very silly to declare his name, he may never meet Gu Baishi again.

"I saw your name just now." Gu Baishi glanced at his work ID, with a faint smile on his face.

Lu Xihan went on to say, "And I'm an adult, and I'm in college." He'd been meaning to say this because he had serious doubts about being considered a high school dropout.

Gu Baishi was really surprised when he heard the words, he raised his eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "University should also focus on study, and work can be put in the future."

Lu Xihan smiled and showed two canine teeth, "Understood, Mr. Gu."

Gu Baishi pushed two shopping carts in the crowded supermarket and struggled forward, while always watching his niece at the side.

"Shui Bei, follow closely, don't get lost."

The little girl named Shuibei tightly grasped the corner of Gu Baishi's clothes, "Little uncle, can we really finish eating so many oranges?"

"If you can't finish it, make it into juice." Gu Baishi frowned and thought for a while, then said.

When Lu Xihan looked at Gu Bai, his back disappeared into the crowd.

He doesn't know whether Bo is a PhD student or a graduate student.

"That was your friend just now? He looks very rich." Aunt Apple approached and asked.

Lu Xihan turned around, "I guess." Are you friends?

The aunt was dissatisfied with his ambiguity, "Didn't you know him, otherwise why would he take care of your business like this. I think this young man is tall, handsome, and generous. The conditions should be very good, are you married? What kind of work?"

Lu Xihan asked strangely, "Were you a fortune teller or a population surveyer?"

Aunt Apple faltered, "No...my neighbor's daughter is in pretty good condition, and I want to introduce her to her."

In fact, introduce it to your daughter.

What job?have no idea.

But it must be cultural people right.

Gu Baishi took Gu Shuibei to check out at the cash register, and when he was about to leave, the cashier said,

"Sir, your membership card has [-] points, you can draw a lottery at the door, and the time limit is three days."

Gu Shuibei pulled Gu Baishi's hand, "Little uncle, I want to draw a lottery!"

Gu Baishi looked at the pile of things in front of him and sighed, "Wait for me to move the things to the car first."

The uncles and nephews lined up to draw the lottery. Gu Baishi glanced at the prizes drawn by others. They were nothing more than daily necessities such as washing powder and paper towels. Gu Shuibei's children would probably be very disappointed.

When it was time for them to draw, Gu Baishi hugged Gu Shuibei and asked Gu Shuibei to put his hand into the box to draw the lottery.

"Congratulations kid, you have won our second prize, a small heater."

The staff took out a birdcage-style heater and handed it to Gu Boshi.

Gu Shuibei was not interested in this at all, so she asked with a sad face, "Auntie, can I change it to something else?"

"It's not allowed, little sister." The staff laughed.

Gu Baishi knelt down and asked Gu Shuibei,

"Shuibei, do you agree to give this prize to that brother just now?"

Shui Bei tilted his head and thought about it for a while, "Okay, I like that pretty brother Orange."
