chapter -4

Some workers felt too tired on the way, and some sat down for a while and went to the opposite shop to buy a bottle of water.

Only Xiao Yan remained indifferent, and continued to do it with his head dull.

"Xiao Yan, take a break, you are all sweating, and you can't get tired if you are tired."

"I'm fine, I can resist."

Xiao Yan continued to move the bricks as he talked. Even with gloves, the palms were full of blisters. The blisters broke the scabs, and then blisters were rubbed out, and calluses were formed on the joints.

At dusk, a person came by Xiao Yan's side, and he was handing a bottle of water.

"Thank you, I am not thirsty."

is a contractor, he is in his thirties, and he does not look much older than Xiao Yan.

He looked at Xiao Yan's chapped lips and said, "Drink, I asked you... Why are you hesitating? Do you want me to feed you?"

Xiao Yan finally took it, and said thank you in a dumb voice.

Grumbling, Xiao Yan just drank wildly.

"Why are you so desperate?"

The contractor took out a cigarette and handed it over.

Xiao Yan shook his head and said thank you. I don't smoke

There are few men who don't smoke now, don't pretend to me."

Xiao Yan quickly explained: "I really don't smoke. Since I had a daughter, I have quit. Jiajia doesn't like the smell of smoke on my body..."

The contractor found that the hard-working, unsmiling man finally smiled when he talked about his daughter.

The contractor clicked on it himself, perhaps because he was afraid that the smell of smoke might get on Xiao Yan, he sat a little bit away. "You worked so hard for your daughter? Actually, I also have a daughter, who is 9 years old. She always quarreled with her father when she was young, and now she doesn't kiss me anymore." Speaking of this, the contractor also laughed.

"Well, for my daughter."

Xiao Yan finished drinking the water and continued to work.

"What did you do this morning?"

Perhaps out of thanks to the contractor for a bottle of water, Xiao Yan's body stiffened, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not hide it. "I divorced my wife, um, I'm an ex-wife now..."

The cigarette in the hand of the contractor froze. "I'm not for gossip, you are so desperate, I'm afraid you will die on my construction site. Why are you divorced? Are you not in love?"

I don't love, these two words made Xiao Yan's heart cruel.

"No, I love, I love..."

Then why divorce?"

The contractor almost said if his wife cheated and gave him a green hat, but he was not embarrassed to say it, because this Xiao Yan looked very uncomfortable. The 28-year-old man said he was not young, he said he was not big, but some The joke can't be overdone.

"If you don't get a divorce, those debt collectors will bother her every day, and will force her to buy her parents' house, and the two will be homeless..."

The contractor was silent, and every family had hard-to- read scriptures.

After a while, the contractor finished smoking and stood up and said, "Okay, let's get off work. This is your salary today. You count."

Xiao Yan counted and said in surprise: "Brother Zhang, 50 more..."

"I can be regarded as a preliminary understanding of the reason why you are so desperate, but even if you do not eat or drink, and move bricks 24 hours a day, you will not be able to pay off the huge debt at once. Human health is very important, brother, you are still young. If you are exhausted, what will your parents do? What will your daughter do?"

"This 50 is not for you, for Jiajia. Although I haven't met her yet, they are all dads and understand. Today is a special day. Buy some delicious food for your children. Pay it back slowly."

The contractor patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder, and sighed: "No matter how much pressure, no matter how hard life is, you must accompany your children more. Don't let the children shed too many tears when they were young..."
