C101 Try It
"Autistic pride can't open the wide sunshine. The pride of youth also underestimates the weight of tradition. " - - - Volume Poetry
The days of pressure and haste together will make one unable to feel the rapid flow of time. Sawakita Mitsuo stared at Li Weisheng and Shawb. He led a team of less than 30 people to prepare for the first public welfare operation in the new city. Xiao Bu felt that the group of 'ordinary, but not stinky craftsmen' around him had not done everything, nor had they been prepared for it. This year's' 3. 5 'Lei Feng Memorial Day had arrived.
At 8: 30 AM, the volunteer service that was scheduled to start at 9 AM had already attracted the residents of the four districts to the border to buy groceries. Unlike the queue of middle-aged and elderly residents waiting to measure blood pressure, Master Su and Old Wang were surrounded by neighbors on the street. The long queue was filled with scissors and kitchen knives that they had brought home.
Duan Sunflower stood beside the two of them and looked at his hunched back, which had been through the wind and frost, as he sat on the bench that he had borrowed at the last minute. He exerted his strength with great difficulty and felt sad in his heart! "Maintaining life, Little Xiao. Next time, we have to prepare two more stools that are specially used for sharpening blades. Also, the height of the stools needs to be adjusted for the volunteers. Otherwise, it would be too tiring for them to sit and serve us like this!"
"It's tiring! I went up to try it out. In less than five minutes, my waist was bent so much that it hurt! But I think sharpening knives is the most popular project today. In the future, we have to recruit more volunteers. Otherwise, we will tire Master Su and Master Wang out. "
"Hey, there are a few bricks there. Let's go and pick them up and help them cushion the floor. " When Sunflower turned back and saw the bricks thrown in the green belt, he pulled Li Weisheng and Shabu to pick them up.
The bricks were covered in mud and dust, which almost made Xiao Bu vomit. However, Xiang Sunflower didn't see his stinky face. He patted the dust on his hands and apologized to the two volunteers who were sharpening the knives. . . . "I'm sorry for what I did to you today. This is all I can do. I'll replace you with Director Li and Director Xiao later, so that you can rest for a while longer. "
"No need, no need!" "Secretary, Director Li, we can do it!"
"Secretary, I don't know how to sharpen a knife!" Xiao Bu quietly retreated backwards.
However, he was pulled back by Xiang Kuansheng happily. "It's not very difficult. You just need to aim at the edge of the knife and use your strength evenly. If you don't believe me, you can try. "
"I'll try it later. The two masters are sharpening it just in time. Don't affect their rhythm. " Xiao Bu felt really bitter in his heart!
"Secretary Xiang, do you think there is still a need to sharpen those knives?" Shaobu had seen the knives in the queue. One-third of them had rusted and broken handles. According to his standards, they were trash that could be thrown away long ago. It was such a waste that his aunt, aunt, and uncle had to use them to grind them.
"Little Xiao, don't look at how old these things are. Sometimes, even though you're used to them, you still want to use them!" He took the pair of scissors that Master Su had just polished and looked at the new sharp edge. Satisfied, he handed it to the owner of the knife beside him. "Am I right?"
"That's right. It's been more than twenty years. I like it when I cut and sew!" The person who was waiting to take the scissors was a volunteer who was going to perform the cutting service later. She queued for the first one in order to make it more convenient for the service later. After listening to Sunflower Sheng's question, she handed the scissors to Xiao Bu. "If you don't believe me, try it. It's very handy!"
When Xiao Bu saw that the old black scissors and the ugly but sharp head were aimed at him, he was so scared that he jumped two steps away. "I still don't want to try it. I will never do needlework made by these female comrades!"
"Hehe, who said that the cutting work is only done by the lesbians? Before the relocation, I was a famous tailor on the Old Street. Men's clothing, women's clothing, anything you choose to do. " The volunteer's husband squeezed in from behind the crowd. He smiled at Shaobu and said, "How about. . . When I try to make a suit for you, you will know my standards?"
"Don't, don't mention it. I have, quite a few suits!" Shaobu felt that he had been frightened today! The suits made by volunteers were definitely old-fashioned to the point that they were trash. Who would dare to wear that?
The two volunteers did not care about the details. They held hands and quickly went to their stalls. In front of each stall, there were quite a number of residents waiting.
"Little Si, look, Director Qian of the neighborhood committee gave it to me just now. I told you to go and try it!"
Because the motorcycle competition field had not yet opened, New Zhi found a part-time job for breakfast and Chinese food waiters in the small restaurant. After busying himself with breakfast, he sat down with the chefs in the kitchen and the front shops and ate the remaining fried dough sticks and soybean milk in a hurry. Hu Yangxin rushed over and took out the paper that Qian Jianfeng had specially printed.
"Welcome to the Community Worker Team?" Xin Xiaozi held the bowl of soy milk that she had drank half, but the grease on her hands had not been washed away. She could only reach her mother's head to look at the notice that she had opened.
"Yo, it seems to be a good opportunity. Xiaozi, hurry up and sign up. " An employee also came over to take a look, "Unfortunately, we only have a middle school education and don't know how to use computers. There's no way we can sign up. "
Xin Xiaozi hesitated. "Mom, can mine work?" She had always felt that she was a wild goose that was not accepted by outsiders in East River City. Subconsciously, she even wanted to hide from her mother and raise her at the border of East River City.
"Director Qian said that he heard Officer Little Tan praise you. He also saw you several times in the neighborhood. He felt that you would definitely be able to do it!"
"When did he see me?" Apart from the process of entering the house, Xin Xiaozhi did not remember contacting the residents of the neighborhood committee.
"Yeah, didn't you wipe the glass windows of the corridor before New Year's? And the snow in front of the corridor in the winter? " Hu Yangxin felt gratified that her daughter's good behavior was seen and approved by others. She had developed a good mentality of "doing more work for the neighbors and not arguing over contradictions" since she was young. It seemed that she had helped the child.
"That was only done when I saw it. " Xin Xiaozhi looked at the time and bit the youtiao hard. After a while, she would rush to the north bank for lessons.
"It's not just that. Director Qian said that when he visited our house, he saw you studying computer science on the balcony. He approved of your enthusiasm for learning!" Hu Yangxin felt that this job opportunity had fallen from the sky, and she couldn't stop smiling.
"Why didn't I know that he came to our house?"
"At that time, you were focused on the books. When we received Director Qian, we talked about your work with him. " Hu Yangxin saw her daughter drink soy milk in a hurry, change into her work clothes, and hurriedly tidy up her things. Her heart ached - she didn't know that the child was so nervous when he worked part-time and participated in training.
Because her mother mentioned Tan Ming's praise for her, Xinzi, who was on the bus, remembered his WeChat message. She opened it. It was the same notification and similar words as Qian Jianfeng's.
The girl looked at the screen and saw a string of smiling icons. Her heart felt sour, bitter, and sad. She could only reply politely: "Brother Tan, thank you! But I don't seem to be able to repay the favor I owe you. I'm really sorry. . . "
The second the grateful message was sent to the optical fiber, the phone vibrated and a text message was sent. Xin Xiaozhi had never seen that number before, but the content of the message clearly told her who that fellow was!
"If you don't want to be unemployed or part-time, go to the district's portal website and take a look. Look at the recruitment of community employees and consider it a chance for yourself. If you don't want to work part-time, then it proves that it was right of me not to let you work part-time at that time. Your internet skills haven't passed, so you still have to continue charging, replenishing your health, and then fight monsters and break through. "
"You monster, I don't care about fighting you!" Xin Xiaozi was annoyed.
However, her phone continued to vibrate and sent a link to the "New City Night Speech" - the detestable "caterpillar" had announced in her blog that the district government was recruiting community workers.
"If you want to give it a try, then try everyone you need. This is fair competition, and it will be good for you!"
With a grin on his face, Xia Jianqing sent a text message to challenge Xin Xiaozhi to compete and give it a try. However, he did not know that Grandma Xia was standing behind him, and she was also anxious to pull him over to give it a try.
"Qingqing, you said you were dizzy two days ago. I watched a program on TV yesterday. It said that the age of the occurrence of high blood pressure is getting older and older. Many young people are stressed and busy with work, and they also suffer from high blood pressure. But I still don't know that it has a huge risk and hidden danger to their health!"
Grandma Xia was supported by a family member with one hand and with the other, she pulled Xia Jianqing and walked towards the blood pressure stall with small steps.
"You and I will take a measure together and try to see if there is any high blood pressure. . . If there is, you should go to the hospital early to treat so as to not cause a big problem. Your parents are not in China, and you are not like a company employee. Every year, there will be a physical examination. I have to take responsibility for your health! "
. . . "" Stranglethorn Green wanted to try out the volunteer service, but none of the projects in front of him was suitable for him. This time, he was forcefully pulled by the old man and squeezed into a pile of white-haired old men. He felt that he did not have enough blood pressure, so his blood pressure also rose "dilly-dally. " His face was looked at by the residents in front, back, and left, and it was as red as a cooked crab.
Forget it. Anyway, he was going to post it anyway, so he would give it a try. With this thought in mind, He might as well not look at anyone. He rolled up his sleeves and waited in line earnestly!
