Chapter 18
"Didi..." Yuqing was at work when a message came from QQ.When I opened it, I saw that it was a message sent by Siyi to the group of three people.
"Dear friends, I have found an internship unit! I will go to work after the Chinese New Year. Bless me, haha!" A happy expression was added at the end.
"Congratulations!" Yuqing quickly congratulated.
"What unit? Tell me?" Guan Lu asked.
"It's a large cultural and creative company, and I'm an assistant to the general manager. I heard that their company has been looking for a suitable candidate for a long time!" Siyi said with a hint of pride.
"Being pretty is an advantage! Even finding a job is a green light." Guan Lu replied sourly.
"How is the salary?" Yuqing asked.
"The basic salary is 3500, as well as performance and year-end bonuses, weekend breaks, five insurances and one fund." Siyi replied.
"Wow! So good! I only have more than 2000!" Guan Lu was full of envy, and even more lamented the importance of appearance in the workplace.
"It is indeed a very good job, come on! Work hard! Try to stay as soon as possible." Yuqing replied.
"Well, they said that they can formally sign the contract after receiving the diploma. Now, 80% of the salary will be paid during the internship period." Siyi replied.
"By the way, when do you plan to go home for the New Year?" Siyi asked again.
"We are all working, so we must listen to the leadership. I guess it will be 28-[-] in the twelfth lunar month. Have you bought your tickets?" Yuqing asked Siyi.
"Yeah, I bought it a long time ago. Since I went to college, Li Hang has always been responsible for my ticket home, so I don't have to worry about it." Siyi replied.
"This Li Hang is so kind to you! Isn't he your loyal suitor?" Guan Lu asked.
"Don't talk nonsense. We are good buddies. We are very generous and like to help others." Siyi replied.
"Then why isn't he willing to help me?" Guan Lu deliberately teased.
"You're not serious, do your nurses have a holiday during the Chinese New Year?" Siyi asked Guan Lu.
"We have a holiday, but I haven't asked Yu Yang when the company will have a holiday? We have to go together." Guan Lu replied.
"You guys talk first, Manager Zhao is calling me, and I will probably be dragged into talking again." After Yuqing finished speaking, she made a crying emoticon.Due to her recent poor performance, Yuqing has been called to talk to her manager twice.
After get off work, Guan Lu returned home. While packing her clothes, she asked Yu Yang: "Yangyang, when will your company have a holiday? What day should we book train tickets for?"
The stocks are deeply trapped and there is not much money in hand. Yu Yang is worrying about how to spend this Spring Festival!When Guan Lu asked this question, she didn't know how to answer for a moment, so she had to remain silent.
"I heard from Yuqing that your stock was trapped? You didn't lose much, right?" Guan Lu continued to ask.
"I asked you to stop talking about stocks. It's annoying. I don't plan to go back to celebrate the New Year this year. I want you to go back." Yu Yang replied to Guan Lu angrily.
"Have you taken gunpowder? It's just baffling." Guan Lu was also angry.
"It's all because of your good friend Wang Yuqing. I have no money now and can't go home. You can go find her!" Yu Yang felt that if he hadn't opened a stock account with Yuqing to trade stocks, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state now. , all caused by the rain.
"I asked you, why are you so unreasonable? Why did Guan Yuqing get trapped in the stock market? The money she lost didn't go into her pocket." Guan Lu felt that Yu Yang was unreasonable.
"I cleared all my positions at first, but then I listened to Grandma Liu and bought all my positions in China Energy. As an account manager, she knew there were risks, so why didn't she warn me earlier! Their securities companies are more professional than us retail investors, right? They predict the risks. Are they more capable than us? But they are only interested in making money, so they don't care about our life or death." Yu Yang was so angry that he finally let it all out.
Guan Lu didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, so she stopped arguing with Yu Yang about the stocks. She planned to ask Yu Qing privately what was going on.
"Yuqing, I told Hanhan as soon as I found the internship unit, but he seemed to ignore me. Every time I asked him on QQ, he always replied that he was busy. Is he really that busy after work?" Si Yihe Yuqing chatted on QQ and expressed her depression.
"No matter how busy he is, how busy is the national leader? The so-called busyness means that he doesn't care. I am also very busy at work, but no matter how busy the work is, there is still time to eat and sleep, right? There is always time to take some time to care, right?" Yu Qing Fight the injustice for Siyi.
"The company where he is interning is so strong and the competitors are so fierce. He may feel a lot of pressure. After all, it is not that easy to stay." Siyi was explaining Gao Han.
"Don't worry about him. Didn't you find a job? You will be busy soon. Go home and celebrate the New Year happily, and then work hard after the New Year. I hope you will have a new look in the New Year!" Yuqing comforted Siyi.
"Ding ding ding..." Yuqing's phone rang, and she saw it was Guan Lu calling.
"Siyi, I won't talk to you anymore. Guan Lu called me. She must have something to do. If nothing happens, she will find me on QQ."
"Okay, then you get busy first." Siyi was still sad about Gao Han.
"Yuqing, I'm sorry to disturb your work, right?" Guan Lu asked on the phone.
"It's okay. Chinese New Year is coming soon. Besides, the market is not good now and no one is in the mood to work. You must have something to do with me, right?"
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to ask. Yu Yang seems to be very prejudiced against you. He said that his stocks were cheated because you didn't remind him. What on earth is going on?"
"He has wronged me. As you know, when the stock index was almost 6000 points, I asked him to clear his position over and over again, but he refused to listen. Later, I asked you to persuade him. Do you still remember this?"
"Yeah, remember, he said he escaped the adjustment after clearing the stock, and he even showed off to me!"
"Later, when China Energy went public, he bought the whole position at a high point. I reminded him not to put all his eggs in one basket, but to consider diversifying his investments and reducing risks. He might have thought that I was deliberately promoting the fund to him. Anyway, In the end, he didn't listen to me." Yu Qing felt that this Yu Yang didn't understand her kind reminder, and now he's still criticizing her. Can she be blamed for this?
"Oh, I understand what's going on. How many tricks did he take?" Guan Lu asked.
"Hey, he bought it at the highest point. Fortunately, he paid out part of it later, otherwise he would have lost more if he kept the whole position until now." Yu Qing did not dare to tell Guan Lu the specific price, for fear that she would not be able to bear it.
Guan Lu understood the cause and effect of the incident and felt that Yu Yang had mistakenly blamed Yu Qing. She wanted to reconcile and resolve the misunderstanding.
When she got home in the evening, Guan Lu told Yu Yang about her phone call with Yu Qing, and tried to persuade Yu Yang to be more tolerant.After hearing this, Yu Yang became furious: "She is sophistry! She was just reminding me as a routine. If she had told me early in the morning the seriousness of a full position in a stock, would I have been trapped so miserably? I don't even know if I can get out of the trap. It's gone." Yu Yang regretted it to death at this moment. If he had not chosen to fully stock China Energy, but had taken profits as soon as possible, he would have probably moved to a unit by now.Yu Yang felt heartbroken when he thought of this.
"No matter what, I will never forgive her." Yu Yang said through gritted teeth.
"Since it was Grandma Liu who asked you to buy China Energy, why don't you hate her?" Guan Lu asked puzzledly.
"Grandma Liu is also a victim! She also has a heavy position! What's more, Grandma Liu didn't hide any good stocks before and recommended them to me in time. I made a lot of money by following her. How could I hate her! If you want to hate her, just hate Wang Yuqing, hum! She is really not a thing, and you will have less contact with her in the future."
"Yu Yang, this is your fault. The relationship between Yu Qing and I is our business. Why do you interfere with my freedom?" Guan Lu was furious. She felt that Yu Yang was so unreasonable at this moment!
"You answer your questions during the Chinese New Year. I won't go back anyway." After Yu Yang said that, he lay down on the bed and ignored Guan Lu, giving her a slap on the back.
"Humph, I'll answer as soon as I answer. If you ignore me, I won't ignore you!" Guan Lu also lay down angrily, with their backs facing each other.
It’s Chinese New Year!On New Year's Eve, there were bursts of firecrackers outside and beautiful fireworks dotted the entire night sky. An Chen and his father also returned to their hometown in the countryside from the provincial capital.
"Dad, I'm going to set off the cannons outside the house! The dumplings are cooked and put on the table. Why don't you go and eat them first." An Chen finished the New Year's Eve dinner for the two of them and was going to set off the cannons outside the house first.Too many things have happened in the past few years. To celebrate the coming year, I might as well go out and stay alone for a while and talk to my mother who is in the sky.
"Chenchen! Dad will go with you to fire off the cannons. This may be the last time in my life to fire off the cannons." Dad An said and staggered out of the back room.
"Dad, don't say unlucky words during the Chinese New Year. You will live a long life and help me raise my grandson in the future!" An Chen comforted his father with a sullen look on his face.
"Dad knows that he doesn't have much time left. Forget it, don't say these unlucky words and let's set off firecrackers together!" An's father held a long stick, with a large string of firecrackers hung on one end of the long stick, and An Chen lit it with a cigarette butt. The sound of firecrackers suddenly resounded throughout the yard. The father and son looked at the firecrackers and smiled happily, bringing a long-lost peace to this unfortunate yard.
After setting off the cannon, the father and son returned to the back room together, "Let's eat dumplings!"
The new year has arrived!
"Dad! Dad! What's wrong with you?" This morning, as usual, An Chen got up early and started preparing breakfast for the father and son. After this meal, they were ready to return to the provincial capital.When An Chen came out of the kitchen to wake his father up for dinner, he found that he couldn't wake him up. When he touched his father's face, everything he touched was cold.
An Chen panicked and immediately called 119 for ambulance.When the doctor came to the house and completed a basic examination, he told An Chen that the patient had passed away!
"What? You mean my dad...he's gone?" An Chen couldn't believe his ears.
"Yes, please ask the family to prepare the funeral arrangements, and we will go back first." After the doctor said that, he turned and left.
"Dad! Dad! Wake up! Dad! Don't abandon Chenchen. I don't have a mother anymore. Without you, I will become an orphan without a father and a mother. What will happen to me in the future? Life! Dad! Wake up! Dad!" An Chen cried loudly and shook his father's body vigorously, hoping that his father would open his eyes and wake up.
An Chen's cries attracted the attention of the neighbors, and everyone came to An's house one after another to see what happened.
After seeing that Dad An had passed away, everyone began to discuss how to help arrange Dad An's funeral arrangements.
"What a pitiful child An Chen is! He has lost his parents and has no brothers or sisters at such a young age. Hey..." Aunt Zhang looked at An Chen and said with great sympathy.
"Well, before he gets married, his parents are gone. What will happen next?" Uncle Zhao shook his head and sighed.
"You guys, don't be idle, hurry up and make arrangements, buy a shroud, order a coffin, and prepare to notify the neighbors. Let's arrange for Lao An's funeral together. An Chen is still young and doesn't understand. Pointing at us old neighbors!" The village manager was instructing the neighbors.
After Mr. Song learned about the death of An's father, he comforted An Chen An and arranged for his father's funeral, and gave him a long vacation to let him adjust his emotions before returning to the company to consider the follow-up work.
As night fell, An Chen began to keep vigil.Looking at the empty room, An Chen felt scared for the first time.When my father was alive, although he was bedridden all year round, he was still a family man. Now that his father is gone, he has become a homeless orphan.From now on, I will have to face this complex and unpredictable world alone.What else does he have in this world?It seemed like all that was left was work.
He lamented the unfairness of fate and lamented his own powerlessness, unable to keep neither his mother nor his father.Suddenly, he remembered what his father had told him when he was still alive: to be an upright man, move forward step by step, and not to mess up your mind and take the wrong path.He will keep his father's words in mind. He tells himself to become stronger in the future, to truly be like a man, to walk unswervingly in the future, and to live up to his father's expectations.
