Soliciting customers, ordering food, paying bills, collecting tables, washing dishes...

After working in the wonton stall all day, Liu Lian's physical endurance has reached a limit.

Not only the backache and leg pain, but the unbelievably stiff back and heels that are so sore that they can't stand up are the most serious and the most serious injuries.With her physical condition, this is certainly not the result of a day, she has been here for more than a month.

Before that, she seemed to have not engaged in such heavy pure physical labor for a long time.In addition, since she was a black worker, the proprietress fired the two guys who were originally working at the stall.Therefore, one person does the work of two people, and takes one person's labor.

However, she was originally hired because the two guys were too busy...

Liu Lian didn't like such a completely unfair job, but there was nothing he could do.

Who made her a black worker, who made her have no identity in Hong Kong, who made her——suddenly he crossed over? !

I can't blame our heroine for swearing. Anyone who was sleeping comfortably on her soft and warm bed* in the middle of the night was suddenly thrown away in Hong Kong 18 years ago like a piece of garbage that was thrown out casually. , will be crazy.

People travel to ancient times, although they are "step by step * startled * heart", but they are all crazy and cool prince elder brothers, eat delicacies from mountains and seas, and wear silk and satin.Well, she absolutely dare not look forward to these.But at least no matter whether the soul wears or wears 99%, they can land safely, okay? !

Where is the unfortunate 1% like her, who fell asleep in a daze and unconsciously, but was suddenly thrown out and fell heavily on the ground.Well, it's just a standard dog eating *poop, with his head smashed!Also, the landing site was less than 10 meters away from the garbage collection place in the back alley of a certain residential building... Liu Lian deeply hated every detail of this 'unfortunate event', but it was the most bitter about it.

She had sworn that no matter if it was aliens from Saturn, Mars or Namek who did this, she would settle the score with them/them eventually.

But it was precisely because of this "landing place" that she was cheating, she was fortunate in her misfortune to meet the kind-hearted Grandpa Li.He lived in the old-fashioned public house behind the building. He found her when he got up to take out the garbage in the morning, and then picked her up after she was woken up and then unconscious due to her injuries.

Grandpa Li not only rescued her, but also gave her a place where she could hide herself, a poor girl who was robbed because she failed to sneak in to seek relatives.

If it wasn't for his old man at that time, the best ending for her would be to be sent back to the mainland.

In mainland China in 1996, the attributive of this time alone has already made people laugh.In addition, she also did not have an identity certificate in mainland China - the person with the same surname Liu Minglian was only 7 years old this year!Maybe he was treated as a spy or something, even if he was not shot, he would have to work hard for a lifetime!

As for the worst ending, it is probably either cremated and buried, or sent to the medical school to meet those strangers with sincerity...

So Liu Lian is completely grateful to this old man surnamed Li.

He took good care of her and did not discriminate against her status as "North Aunt", and even took her in selflessly after that.

In the words of his old man, he was an old man who had been alone for many years and had no son or half daughter.Now that most of his body is buried in the soil, it is fate to meet him. It is like God rewarding him with a granddaughter, and there will be someone who can help him restrain himself in the future.

Before the age of 16, although Liu Lian had both parents, he actually grew up with his grandfather.Now living with the old man Li Qiang, she feels very nice and heartwarming.

The only thing that worries her is her helplessness and uncertain future as a black household.Of course, there is also the huge debt that was far away in 2014, which was far from being paid off by their family.

What would they do without her?

Thinking of this, Liu Lian closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then opened them firmly, and quickly helped the proprietress put away the stall.In the current situation, thinking about these things will not help at all, but will only increase troubles.The most important thing now is how to live in this world and live well.

"Liannu, take this with you when you go home!" The proprietress put away the big bills and change in the money box, turned around and got a large plastic bag and handed it to Liu Lian. "There are still some raw shrimp wontons left over today. You can take them home and cook them tomorrow morning. There is also the squab brought back by my sister-in-law. It is fragrant, oily and tender. I will share half of it with you. Go home and give your grandpa a taste."

"Why is this so embarrassing, Madam Boss? You can keep the pigeons that sister-in-law gave you and the old couple. You can eat it yourself! It's also good to serve Uncle a drink!" Liu Lian hurriedly refused, but she didn't dare to accept it.

"Why are you being polite?! There are so many of them! She didn't buy them on purpose, her natal family made them. It's a thought to bring them back, and it's a taste to give them away. If you ask you to take it, you can take it! Your uncle Ah, Auntie, I have already issued a sobriety order! Go to sleep if you drink too much every day, and drink when you are full..." The proprietress pushed back the bag that Liu Lian pushed out, "Okay, you're welcome, Go home quickly!"

"This..." Liu Lian is really not being polite. She works at this stall for 15 hours a day without stopping, and works for two people to get a salary, which is something she can't afford.But the hateful thing is that if the proprietress doesn't say it's part of her reward, she won't dare to accept it!

"Okay, okay, take it home quickly!" The proprietress frowned slightly, she liked this girl very much when she saw it.I think she is well-behaved, diligent and sensible.Later, at work, I really discovered her benefits.Although she is unwilling to pay her more salary, she always hopes to treat her better in other things.

But with a good heart, why do you feel like you are wrong now?Is it too little?No, no, Liannu is so obedient, this is absolutely impossible!It must be shy and afraid to take it, well, that's it.

"Go on, don't go on, the proprietress will be angry!"

"..." Liu Lian had no choice but to take the bag from the proprietress's hand with a smile on his face like a bomb. This should be regarded as a reward for his hard work, or a gift for his good personal relationship... But personal gifts are only counted if they come and go, or else, spend money to give the proprietress something tomorrow?But I can't be reconciled after thinking about it!

During the walk home, Liu Lian couldn't help but look around carefully.

She took this bag of things, which means that there is a great possibility of sudden misfortune.If you are lucky, this bag of food may fall to the ground and be lost; if you are unlucky, shit, there are too many cars in Hong Kong and they drive too fucking fast! ! ! !

Liu Lian is in a state of collapse...

If you want to ask her why she is so afraid of this bag of things given by the proprietress, you have to start with her, no, maybe it is a 'curse' that their whole family has suffered.

Of course, Liu Lian, who has never believed in ghosts and gods, has never admitted that this is a "curse". After three days and three nights of playing cards, her father, uncle who was drunk, and even her grandfather who was always "wise and martial" After telling her this, she still didn't believe it or admit it.

This may be one of the new 'unsolved mysteries' of the world, like the magic of Bermuda or some other mess.In short, the fortune of their family fell from heaven to hell when she was 16 years old.Of course, the location of 'heaven' was only well-off at the beginning, so one can imagine how miserable they are in 'hell'.

Mother's death from illness, father's work injury, uncle's business failure, grandfather's canteen caught fire... one after another, not only cut off the livelihood of the family, but also cut off the vitality of the family - they carried an unimaginable burden on their backs. What a debt - selling three kidneys is not enough to pay off!

However, she also thought it might not be a big deal at the time, because she also had a 'magic little secret' that she never told her family.She seems to have some kind of natural affection buff, and everyone who has come into contact with her will have a good first impression of her.Her words also seem to have a certain unique charm, which is easy to believe and accept.

So maybe, she's born liar material.

But although he has enjoyed the convenient life brought by it for more than ten years, Liu Lian has never done anything criminal by taking advantage of it.However, in this special period, she felt that it was okay to do something to rescue the whole family from the mud.Even if there is retribution, it is good that the retribution is on her own but saved everyone.

But she didn't expect that the retribution would come so soon!

This is not to say that she was "recovered by Skynet" by the police or something, but that it is reported by the present world.

If she gets the "illicit wealth" on the front foot, some "unfortunate" things will happen to her. The severity of the "unfortunate" depends on the amount of the "illicit wealth".At first, she didn't know this rule, but she experienced three car accidents in just two months, and the injuries added to the injury cost [-]% more money than what she lied to, what else didn't she understand?

However, this category of "ill-gotten wealth" really makes people feel anxious. After slowly exploring, Liu Lian found that as long as she or her family members thought of crooked tricks, they didn't get the rewards through their own labor. If you have property, it will be counted.

At that time, the goods in Grandpa’s canteen were all damaged, the house was sold to lower the debt; Dad’s work injury was still unrecovered; Uncle just went bankrupt, and his outlook on the world, life, and values ​​have greatly shifted... So Liu Lian dropped out of high school, Go out to work to earn money to pay off debts.

But what kind of work can you do without a degree?

At the beginning, she thought about being a salesperson. She is very outgoing and willing to get in touch with people, and the favorability buff can also help.But then she discovered that as long as she made exaggerated claims about the product and succeeded, it would also be judged as 'ill-gotten wealth', and then a catastrophe would come.

The roads were all blocked, and at that time she could only do jobs like waiters and cleaners.I am exhausted every day, but the money I earn is a drop in the bucket compared to the debts at home.

Liu Lian thought about the hard times in the past, and before he knew it, he had already reached home!She looked up at the gate, then looked around, but there was nothing in silence.Unexpectedly, unexpectedly all right!

"Tuk Tuk Tuk-"

"Alian, are you back?" An old man with white beard and hair who looked like he was in his 90s or [-]s opened the door, and it was Grandpa Li. "Come into the house, I boiled sugar water on the gas stove."

"Grandpa, I brought back wontons and squab from the stall today! Let's cook for supper!" Liu Lian entered the room, lit up the things in his hand, and rushed to the kitchen like a gust of wind, and took the photo frame on the cabinet, Almost took something off.

"This child is reckless!" Li Qiang smiled helplessly but dotingly, and stretched out his hand to straighten the photo.It was a very old black and white photo with a group photo of many people.

Although the photo is a little fuzzy, it looks like it has been rubbed many times, but the gilded words on it are still like new——Shanghai Minxin Film and Television School, 1930, Li Qiang.
