After finishing work that night, Lin Guoqiang counted his income for the day.
Forty-three dollars.
He put the money away, turned around, and saw Zhao Zhijun sitting on the stone steps in front of the store, his head lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Zhijun, come in and eat."
Zhao Zhijun stood up and followed him into the store.
Dinner is cooked freshly by Lin Guoqiang.
Braised pork, fried shredded potatoes, tomato and egg soup, and a plate of braised meat.
The three of them sat at the table. Zhao Sumei settled down Lin Jing and Lin Wei and sat down to eat together.
Zhao Zhijun held the bowl and looked at the dishes on the table, a little unbelievable.
"Third brother-in-law, can we have such a good dinner tonight?"
"Well, I'm tired from working, so I need to eat better."
Lin Guoqiang gave him a piece of braised pork and said, "Eat more, you are too thin."
Zhao Zhijun took a bite of the meat. It was fat but not greasy. It melted in his mouth and was so fragrant that he almost swallowed his tongue.
He picked up another piece, and then another piece, and ate four or five pieces in one breath, his cheeks bulging like a hamster.
"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you." Zhao Sumei smiled and added a bowl of soup to him.
Zhao Zhijun took a sip of the soup and grinned because it was so hot, but he still couldn't help but smile.
"Third sister, the food cooked by third brother-in-law is so delicious. Why didn't I know about it before?"
"How many times have you been to our house before?"
Zhao Sumei's tone was a little sour, "You used to think our family was poor. You wouldn't even sit down when you came here. You stood for a while and then left."
Zhao Zhijun scratched his head in embarrassment: "Wasn't that because I was ignorant before..."
Lin Guoqiang smiled and said nothing.
After eating, Zhao Zhijun took the initiative to wash the dishes.
Although the brushing is not very clean, the attitude is much better than before.
Zhao Sumei stood nearby and calmly brushed the brush again without letting him see it.
Over the course of a week, Zhao Zhijun's changes were visible to the naked eye.
The vegetables are washed clean, and although the vegetables are still not evenly chopped, they are more than twice as strong as the first day.
I can now knead the dough independently. Although the speed is slow, at least I won’t add too much water.
Most importantly, his attitude changed.
On the first day, he worked "to cope".
Fool around if you can; do as little as possible.
A week later, he started looking for work.
If you see the table is dirty, wipe it. If you see water on the floor, mop it. If you see the guests coming, take the initiative to greet them.
Lin Guoqiang sees this and will praise him at the appropriate time.
