In July, City C Urban area like a huge steamer.
Everyone who showed their faces looked like they had just been fished out of the water. They were drenched in sweat and their bodies were steaming.
There were fewer and fewer people on the street.
The world was bright and lonely.
Chen Chen still had to walk outside.
She didn't dare to just submit her resume online and wait for news at home with a fan.
Firstly, he was worried that he would not be able to sit still.
Secondly, how should he deal with Chen Chunhua's inquiry? If he didn't go out, he wouldn't be able to keep the matter of losing his job.
She was too afraid that her mother and sister would fall into panic and anxiety with her.
It was enough for one person to bear all this. What was the point of dragging the two of them into the water?
If they were nervous, worried, and afraid, she would be under even more pressure.
The sun was shining brightly, and the earth's aura was rising. Chen Chen felt that if an egg was placed on the ground, it would be cooked.
She was tired and thirsty, but she couldn't bear to buy a drink to relieve the heat. She only bought the cheapest bottle of mineral water and drank it in small mouthfuls for the whole day. She didn't dare to drink too much at once, afraid that she wouldn't be able to find a toilet in a place that was neither close to the village nor the shop.
At noon, she would find the simplest snack bar and pick the cheapest bowl of noodles to fill her stomach.
Even so, she felt that her pocket money would not last long. After all, there were two other mouths to feed at home.
She had been thinking, I've already disguised myself as a completely different person, so there's no reason for people to still recognize me. Could it be that my identity card has exposed me?
Thinking of this, his heart was filled with ice shards.
In modern society, there was no job that didn't require an identity card.
It didn't seem like it!
She held back the tears in her eyes and tried her best to hold back her fear and sadness as she mobilized her thoughts to think about the problem.
No matter what, he had to work harder to find that 'what-if'.
What if there was a boss who didn't like to surf the internet or use social media?
What if there is someone who knows but doesn't mind?
What if they just thought that they had the same name…
She dragged her lead like legs and continued to search the streets and alleys.
She secretly convinced herself not to be picky about her work during special times.
No matter what kind of job it was, as long as the salary could keep the family alive, they had to seize it decisively.
On this day, she saw an "opportunity" on the wall at the corner of the street. A construction site was hiring a chef. The monthly salary was 5000 yuan, with five insurances and one gold. Food and accommodation were included.
This was a class that Chen Chen would never pay attention to in the past, but now, it made Chen Chen excited.
Although she didn't have a chef's license and had never done this kind of work before, the requirements for a big pot meal shouldn't be too high.
She felt that she had some talent in cooking and could cook ordinary home-cooked dishes very well.
In the past, Luo Chengfeng's family had been full of praise for her cooking skills.
She went to the address without hesitation.
In the past, in order to save money, Chen Fugui would treat his relatives and friends to a meal at home during New Year's and his birthday. He would often have a few tables for a meal. As the main chef, Chen Chen was quite familiar with the dining hall.
No matter how many people there were, the variety of dishes was set and the portion was increased.
The test of a chef was their physical strength and ability to revise recipes.
She thought to herself,"The family will be out of food soon. I must try my best to stay."
Chen Chen secretly reminded herself to be more thick-skinned and learn to spare no effort in promoting herself.
As for whether or not they would use her, she had been analyzing along the way. The workers at the construction site were basically men. Even if they knew who she was, they might not care at all. How could her good-looking face be of any use? In the past, people always said that she looked like a famous movie star. Men would probably take pity on her because of this.
This kind of place was not open to the public, and the leaders were not necessarily afraid of tarnishing their reputation.
He was lacking in experience, but he was young and strong.
She should still cook for the leader to try. Perhaps if the leader was satisfied, everything would be fine.
When she arrived at her destination, it was not a messy and dirty construction site with a simple canteen made of shacks. Instead, it was a residential area far away from the construction site. Overall, the place was clean and tidy. Although it was also a plank house, it was new and tidy.
The receptionist was a tall, middle-aged man from the north. His face was full of stubble, so Chen Chen couldn't guess his exact age.
The man introduced himself as the project manager, surnamed Zhang.
Manager Zhang took her ID card and compared it to her own. He looked left and right and said,"It doesn't look like it."
Chen Chen could only awkwardly say "makeup".
In order to cover up her identity card and the face in the online video, Chen Chen had made full use of her makeup skills. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she had disguised herself.
Manager Zhang said a lot of polite words, but to Chen Chen, it sounded like a rejection.
What he said most was that Chen Chen was too young, too beautiful, and did not have any experience as a canteen chef. He was afraid that she would not be able to endure the hardship.
Chen Chen kept in mind that he had to be thick-skinned and tried his best to persuade him."Brother Zhang, I have experience in making banquets. Moreover, I'm young and healthy, and I'm also strong.”
This "Brother Zhang" eased the man's attitude.
Chenchen was doing it on purpose. She had to be sweet when she was begging for help. Who cared what he thought? Even if he wanted to have a " love brother and sister ", that was his business.
She threw caution to the wind.
She only wanted to work.
Manager Zhang smiled gently." I can't bear for such a beautiful woman to do this kind of work. Why don't you come and be my office assistant? Just answer the phone."”
Chen Chen hesitated. Her sixth sense felt that there was something wrong with the assistant's work. She did not have any knowledge or skills in construction. She was afraid that she would have to pay a price for not doing anything and taking money from others.
Chen Chen smiled sweetly and said,""Thank you, Brother Zhang. I won't be an assistant. I'm not well-educated and I'm afraid I won't be able to do office work, so I won't trouble you. I'll still be a chef. I'll cook two dishes for you to try. You'll definitely like them.”
Under Chen Chen's coaxing and pestering, she finally had the chance to cook for Manager Zhang.
After eating the dishes, Manager Zhang was full of praise for her cooking. He said that it was a pity that her cooking was a big pot.
Perhaps because he had been persuaded, he had decided on Chen Chen coming to work and requested,"Sister, can you make me a few dishes that go with wine in the future? I'm about to throw up from eating the big pot of dishes."
How could Chen Chen dare to say no? She had to smile like a flower and agree.
After confirming the job, Chen Chen immediately went to the hospital for a physical examination. She received the results on the same day. She called Manager Zhang happily and was informed that she would start work tomorrow.
She had also asked Manager Zhang not to stay in the unit. She said that her home was in the city and that there were elderly people at home who needed to be taken care of. Manager Zhang did not force her.
Chen Chen was very satisfied with the three meals. She felt that this was a net profit.
She ran home happily and announced to her family that she had changed her job.
It had to be said that the working hours of this job were different from before.
He woke up earlier than a chicken, slept later than a dog, and had no public holidays. He could not hide it from his family at all.
As for the reason for her loss of her job, she simply said that her company had gone bankrupt.
To Chen Chen, the work of a canteen chef was unfamiliar in the first few days. The main problem was that the amount of food was a little different. After a few more days, she would be familiar with it. What was sad was her arms. She used too much strength every day, and her arms were sore.
The workers were very satisfied with the new chef. They said that it was much better than the old man's cooking. Of course, it could also be that Chen Chen was too beautiful. Even her dishes were delicious.
"Sister, I'll help you carry the vegetables in the future. It's so heavy. How can a girl like you carry it?”
"Xiao Chen, I'm free today. Can you peel that potato for me?”
"Chen Chen, I'm quite bored. Those people want to play cards. I don't have such a hobby.”
………
In just a week, the beautiful, gentle, and obedient Chen Chen had many volunteers.
They often came to the kitchen to talk to her and help out with something.
Some of them even came to the kitchen to help out after getting off work early.
There were even many dirty and tiring jobs that were taken care of for her before she even asked.
This unit was made up of all single men. Now that a young and beautiful chef had arrived, those unmarried young men became excited.
Chen Chen knew that these people were expressing their goodwill because of her label as a "single beauty." While she politely thanked them, she was always on guard.
She didn't intend to be friends with anyone, let alone be unclear with anyone.
Chen Chen put all her attention on her work. After hearing the workers praise her for cooking delicious food, she began to figure out the trick to cooking with a big pot more seriously. She loved every job she did. It was her nature.
In order to improve the taste of the dishes, she did not hesitate to turn the big pot of dishes into small pots of dishes and stir-fry them in batches to ensure the color, fragrance, and taste of the dishes, which doubled her labor.
Of course, the amount of oil used was much higher than the original master. One day, Manager Zhang tactfully expressed his intention to save money.
Saving!
Chen Chen felt a headache coming on.
Manager Zhang had already lowered the living expenses to 13 yuan per person per day. Three meals. The workers still wanted to eat meat. Speaking of which, the price of vegetables was also rising.
A clever housewife can't cook without rice. She was already mentally and physically exhausted from thinking about how to turn her limited money into decent dishes every day.
There were even more exhausting things to do.
Manager Zhang had to order a few delicious meat dishes to go with wine every night. He would eat alone in another room. Sometimes, he would be alone, and sometimes, there would be other technicians, but they insisted on asking Chen Chen to eat together.
When she was halfway drunk, Chen Chen often felt that their eyes were all on her, as if they were using her to go with the wine.
When the nervous Chen Chen said that she wanted to go home early, they would all stop her. If she said that she was late, they would be responsible for sending her home. This made Chen Chen lose her appetite every time she ate dinner, as if she was sitting on pins and needles.
