Chapter 3 third chapter

Huang Caixia didn't say hello to him, and walked away chatting with Ah Hua as if nothing had happened.Ma Dongdong followed behind her like a completely unrelated person.Turn right at the factory gate for 200 meters, and turn right at the intersection for another 100 meters. The five-story building with bright sand is the dormitory for Aihao employees.At the door of the dormitory, Ma Dongdong was stopped by the security guard, and he tried to explain to the security guard.He wanted to call Huang Caixia, but she went upstairs without looking back.Ma Dongdong stood guard outside the door, stomping his feet was useless.

Without looking back, Huang Caixia went up to the fourth floor in one breath, already out of breath, and counted all the way from 401, and finally saw the house number: 411.This is the innermost room on the fourth floor, next to the public bath.The door opened, no one was there.Putting down the luggage, Ah Hua enthusiastically said that there is still need, just call me, I live in 310.Thank you, come and sit again when you are free.The room is quite spacious and bright, with four glass windows and doors, full of sunlight, and a concrete floor, but it is clean and tidy. The balcony faces south, and there is a pot of roses on the balcony, which is blooming with red flowers.There are four blue single-layer iron frame beds in the room. There is a two-meter-high orange-red wardrobe between the beds. The two on the left are occupied, and the two on the right are empty. desk.According to the accommodation arrangement, Huang Caixia collected the sundries on the second bed and put her luggage on it.She turned on the ceiling fan and opened the back door to let in as much wind as possible.The grass on the opposite side of the balcony is green and fluffy, which can easily make people have romantic reverie.After resting on the balcony for a while, Huang Caixia thought of Ma Dongdong downstairs, and her face was clouded with sorrow.

Ma Dongdong, who was in a daze, hovered in front of the dormitory gate, with a pitiful and lost appearance, which made people feel sad.He basked in the sun all morning, and his face was darkened.He had been sitting on the grass across the street, not knowing where he was going, and when he was having dinner, he finally saw Huang Caixia. She had washed her hair, changed into a long skirt, and entered the dining hall blithely.She went out of the dormitory and found Ma Dongdong.He went up to meet him with undiminished enthusiasm, and it didn't matter if she scolded him, as long as she still saw him and she left him, his heart would be empty, as if his heart and lungs had been emptied.Huang Caixia is soft-hearted and sad, let's go, let's sit on the grass, I have to work overtime.

They went back to the grassland, the bald grassland, where many migrant workers chatted.He hugged her and sat under a banyan tree on the grass, the heat waves were burning each other, she seemed indifferent to his excitement.He said, look at you, ignore me once you get to work.She said, I work here, is it not easy to know?You can't keep interrupting my work, you know.He is silent.Huang Caixia stuffed him with 10 yuan for lunch, saying that he would look for a job tomorrow and not keep her company.When it was time to go to work at noon, Huang Caixia got up to leave.Ma Dongdong sent her all the way to the gate of Aihao Factory, and then reluctantly walked along National Highway 107 towards Changtian Industrial Zone.Pedestrians were in a hurry on the road, and Ma Dongdong walked aimlessly with his head bald, as if the sun didn't exist at all.The gate of the factory really became a threshold of love. He wanted to get closer, but the guard immediately came out and yelled at him. Ma Dongdong wandered on the national road for two full hours like a lost soul.He felt dazed and his limbs were weak, like symptoms of illness.

Ma Dongdong thinks that his girlfriend is right, he shouldn't pester her, it's inconvenient to work, but he wants to see her every day, if he doesn't see her every day, this world is empty, everything is empty.He still wanted to hug her, but he was afraid that he would not be able to hug her after tonight, or that she would be hugged by someone else.He couldn't leave her behind, and his desire to see her continued to rise, like a high fever that would never go away.He went back to the town mark grass, plunged into the privet bushes, covered his face with a newspaper, thinking about the moment when he got off work, fell asleep in a daze, woke up, and the sun had set in the dormitory of Aihao .

He turned over and sat up, waiting on the way to get off work, not waiting for her, he was restless, he clearly knew that this was wrong and would affect Huang Caixia's work, but he couldn't resist his footsteps, couldn't restrain his emotions, for a minute He couldn't escape from this intense longing. Ma Dongdong saw Huang Caixia again in excitement. This time Huang Caixia was really angry and yelled at Ma Dongdong, why don't you find a job and wait for me all day, can I fly?Watch me, do you have food? I know all this, but I... What am I? If you don't go to work, I still have to support myself. Do you support me?ah? !What do you say?Huang Caixia stared at him.

After waiting all day, Ma Dongdong thought that his beloved would give him some comfort, but she couldn't feel it, and she was full of anger.Ma Dongdong felt uncomfortable, and bit a few words, I won't ask for your money, why are you so fierce.Finally calmed down, looking at each other, the corners of each other's eyes were wet.Ma Dongdong tried to reach out to hug Huang Caixia's waist, trying to influence her with actions, but Huang Caixia walked away and disappeared behind the rockery in the factory in a blink of an eye. Huang Caixia was very sad because she was hopeless.That night, she worked overtime until ten o'clock. When she got off work, she hid behind the glass window of the warehouse office and vaguely spotted Ma Dongdong.In order not to be pestered by Ma Dongdong, the colleagues all got off work and stayed in the office to play on the computer by themselves.After ten o'clock, seeing that Huang Caixia hadn't come out, Ma Dongdong squatted on the side of the road with his head in his hands and sighed. He couldn't calm down and think about other things. He was hopeless and unable to extricate himself.But she avoided him, heartbroken, Ma Dongdong rubbed his eyes, pinched his nose, left Aihao's factory gate, and headed towards Changtian disgruntled.It was already 12 o'clock when he returned to the rental house, he didn't take a shower, he fell on the bed with his clothes on, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.He was not reconciled to not seeing Huang Caixia at night.Counting on his fingers, he has been in love with Huang Caixia for more than three months. Tonight he tasted the taste of missing Huang Caixia. He missed Huang Caixia's voice and smile. If you can't see her for a minute, you can't find your own hands and feet.what is love?He asked himself, love is longing, that is, inexplicable longing.He turned off the light, didn't feel sleepy, the night gradually became quiet, and the sound of insects was particularly harsh. He turned on the light, how could there be insects, got out of bed and turned over a few times, the insects were still screaming, but no trace of the insects could be found.These bugs are on the bed, and it might be better to kill them with "Black Whirlwind". A bottle of "Black Whirlwind" costs more than 20 yuan, just think about it.He turned on the light and began to look at everything in the room. More than half of the plaster on the walls had fallen off, the ground was also somewhat potholed, and the tiles were covered with cobwebs. This was not like a place where people lived. No wonder Huang Caixia was not used to living here. , I really wronged her, such a good figure, such beautiful skin, almost fed bugs on such a dirty bed.He blamed himself for being really useless, and slammed his fist on the bed board hard, his ten fingers hurt, and he felt drowsy.

Find a job, find a job, make money, make money, make money to support her, he murmured and fell asleep in the raving. The first thing he did when he woke up the next morning, Ma Dongdong cleaned up all the money in his trouser pockets and purses, threw it on the bed, counted it, and counted it, including the bills, a total of 118 yuan 45 cents , Half a month after leaving the factory, I really ran out of ammunition and food.There is no hope of finding a job, my girlfriend looks down on me, I turn over and over again, what should I do, what should I do, I ask myself and the boundless world over and over again.Ma Dongdong suddenly remembered that his cousin was in a shoe factory in Zhangmutou Town. He heard that the shoe factory was very large, but he forgot the name of the factory and didn't know the phone number. He only remembered the name of the industrial area, Zhangyang.There was no other way, he decided to make a bet, went to the industrial area to look for his cousin, and took the minibus to Zhangmutou with the last hope.

After two o'clock in the afternoon, Ma Dongdong arrived at the industrial area called Zhangyang. There are two shoe factories here. It happened that the first one he asked was the one of his cousin. When he said his name, the guard nodded repeatedly. He was tall and thin , the white one.My cousin's name is quite famous, so it's not a problem to introduce myself into the factory. Ma Dongdong's hot heart seemed to be cooled by raindrops.In the Shiduo shop next to the factory gate, many people were sitting there crowded. He picked a toad stool scattered in the sun and sat down in the shade under the canopy.The people sitting here, some were watching TV, some were talking about entering the factory and checking temporary residence permits. They were sighing, but neither had a comfortable face nor a few smiles.Ma Dongdong bought a bottle of soy milk worth 60 cents, and sucked it slowly to quench his thirst and kill time.Recently, the investigation of the temporary residence permit was very serious. When others were talking about it, Ma Dongdong pricked up his ears to listen, feeling uneasy and helpless.After finally getting off work, the people in front of the store dispersed and surrounded the door of the shoe factory.They were all waiting for someone, and Ma Dongdong squeezed into the crowd, and finally saw his cousin walking in the mighty queue to get off work, with his head held high and his chest held high, like a red-crowned crane.The faces after get off work, one by one, looked towards the gate, looking forward to having relatives and fellow villagers come to visit.Ma Dongdong tiptoed and called out to his cousin, who was also looking this way.Cousin came to his eyes in response, it was you, dark and thin, almost unrecognizable.The cousin took Ma Dongdong around the left wall of the factory, and warmly invited him to have a fast food at a small food stall.Meals are a small matter, but accommodation is a big one. My cousin frowned, saying that during this period of time, the security team has been conducting house inspections, and several employees from their hometowns have been arrested. They live in hostels and cannot afford to live in them. .Ma Dongdong said, I have never been checked by the security team. I am lucky. Whatever it is, I am not so unlucky.Now that I'm here, I have to try my luck.My cousin took him into a group of red brick houses, found a room for factory employees to rent, knocked on the door, and greeted the people in the room very familiarly.The house has two floors. The first floor is the kitchen and dining room. The ground is damp and the light is dim. A couple lived in the small room behind the dining room.On the second floor, four shirtless men were playing "tractors". Three straw mats were spread out on the floor, and the house was just that big.My cousin said that one of them is called Fatty Chen, my cousin will give you a foothold tonight, please take care of him, he does not have a temporary residence permit.Fatty Chen looked up at Ma Dongdong, and said bluntly, no problem, they all sleep on the floor anyway, these are all of them, there is no temporary residence permit, and there are no personnel.My cousin arranged accommodation for Ma Dongdong, and told Ma Dongdong to keep his eyes open and close his eyes when he was sleeping, and run with them whenever there was any movement.Ma Dongdong had never experienced the scene of checking the temporary residence permit, so he didn't know the depth, so he just nodded blindly. They were not afraid of me or me.The cousin patted Fatty Chen on the shoulder, gave him a cigarette and lit it, and repeatedly told him to take care of him before leaving.

The few players who played cards seemed to be surprised, and continued to play without saying hello.Ma Dongdong went downstairs to wipe his back, and went to bed early with his clothes on. At around ten o'clock, the game ended hurriedly amidst a burst of noise. sleep.sleep.Shouting, clapping, clapping, sweaty arms lying side by side, hot weather, only a small bedside fan, someone hasn’t washed clothes for a few days, a cloudy stuffy air pervades the whole room, muscles meet muscles, sticky, Sour, very uncomfortable.Fatty Chen turned off the lights and told everyone to stay awake and not to sleep too much.They are as young as Ma Dongdong, and they are also homeless. They struggled to find a job during the day, and someone snored while lying down.The snoring wasn't too harsh, it was so loud that people couldn't keep their eyes open.Ma Dongdong remembered his cousin's words and tried to open his eyes. When he couldn't open his eyes, someone suddenly sat up mechanically and yelled in a daze, "The security team is here!"After waking up two at once, Ma Dongdong sat up abruptly, his eyelids still clenched.Everyone listened with bated breath, but there was no movement outside the window.Damn, the man yawned and said, sorry, I was dreaming.Grandma's, with a dead head, frightened people to death, so they stretched their waists, yawned, cursed, complained, and screamed. Everyone had a false alarm, and in a blink of an eye, they fell back to the mat one by one. Only Fatty Chen and his snoring brother were still sleeping soundly in their dreams.

In the early hours of the morning, there were suddenly clear sounds of dogs barking in the alley downstairs, yelling for ward rounds, and knocking on the door.Ma Dongdong woke up from the dream and bounced up quickly. The others didn't respond. He patted himself on the head. This time he wasn't dreaming, he really came to check the ward.Ma Dongdong touched the ass of the Sichuan accent next to him, and slapped him hard. The ward round is over, the ward round is over, get up quickly!For a moment, the room exploded like a honeycomb, and it became a mess in an instant, and ghosts screamed. Where are my clothes? Where are my shoes! Fuck, don't panic!This is Fatty Chen's voice. Ma Dongdong couldn't find his shoes, he fumbled left and right, and fumbled for the switch to turn on the light. You hammer, you still turn on the light, but the person with a Sichuan accent slapped Ma Dongdong on the head and turned off the light. After turning on the light, several people found their clothes and pants, put them on and ran to the rear window.The rear window was opened, and a vague light floated in, and all three of them jumped out of the light.Ma Dongdong found one shoe and put it on, but he couldn't find the other one.Fatty Chen slapped him on the head, and said, hurry up, follow me, hurry up.Fatty Chen climbed up the window, and the only glimmer of light was blocked tightly.A burst of darkness came, and before Ma Dongdong touched the other shoe, the door on the first floor was knocked.Fatty Chen dawdled for a while, and the dim light returned to the room.Ma Dongdong was in a hurry, covered in cold sweat, thinking that it was too late, it was too bad, if he jumped without shoes, his feet would break, in a panic, fortunately, his left hand touched one, he slapped his feet indiscriminately, and staggered to the window, mom Ah, it was so dark that he dared not jump.The light on the first floor was on, and an orange light shone from the stairs. The people living below got up while coughing, and pushed the door latch, and the security team rushed in.Feeling a wolf dog chasing after him, Ma Dongdong panicked and jumped down. His feet were numb and he landed on the ground. He could still stand up, but he didn’t care about that much. He spread his legs and went to the river from the exit on the left. Run away in the direction of the side. I ran under the bridge, but I didn't see Fatty Chen and the others.Have they found a safer place?Ma Dongdong bowed and shouted in a low voice along the riverside grass: Fatty Chen, Fatty Chen.There was no one shouting, but there was a flashlight flickering on the road behind, so I didn't dare to shout anymore, I plunged into a clump of deep grass, watching the movement on the road intently.The person holding the flashlight swam towards the alley of the private house, and Ma Dongdong dared to take a breather. The grass is really thick, and lying in it is soft, which is more comfortable than the floor of the rented house. The breeze blowing from the river is even more comfortable. It's cool, I slept here if I knew it would be like this.However, after a while, the mosquitoes surrounded him and launched a fierce attack, biting and screaming, which disturbed his peace, but this was much better than the security team, and he could fall asleep peacefully when he fell asleep.Sleep, sleep, a few urgings, and really fell asleep.When I woke up, my body was warm, and the sun had only risen ten feet high. The morning sun was so lovely, and the mosquitoes were driven away without a trace.He stood up and stretched his waist. His left foot was not comfortable at all. He squatted down and saw that he was wearing two right shoes, and he was wearing the wrong one.Ma Dongdong shook his head, laughed at himself, and walked along the river bank towards the bridge to find Fatty Chen and the others. After walking for more than 100 meters, four men were lying in a pile of grass in a mess, and they hadn't woken up yet.Overnight, the four people's faces were covered with small red rashes, and they must not be much better. They only felt itchy on their faces and bodies. Woke up Fatty Chen and the others, and they went back to the rental house to continue sleeping, saying that it was absolutely safe to sleep during the day. At noon, my cousin came and asked him to eat a bowl of wonton at Fujian Yuntun shop. The factory is not hiring, so what should I do, or wait here. He couldn't enter the factory, and was frightened by this again. Ma Dongdong didn't dare to stay in Zhangmutou. Although H Town also did ward rounds, he had never done it like this. He felt a little safer. He kept the label of the garment factory on his body. Cards can also be blocked for a while.The people there are also familiar with them, and they will be taken after they are arrested.Ma Dongdong said goodbye to his cousin, and got on the minibus back to H town in disappointment. That night, Huang Caixia hid behind the rockery and dared not go out. She waited 20 minutes for Ma Dongdong to leave the gate of Aihao before returning to the dormitory.A girl in the dormitory was on the balcony, stretching and pulling in, bringing in a pile of clothes, and took the initiative to say hello to her, new pretty girl, welcome, welcome, which department?The warm greeting opened up Huang Caixia's melancholy during this period of time. While making the bed, she said, warehouse department, my name is Huang Caixia, please call me Axia, what should I call you?I, Luo Yueli, are from Anhui.Huang Caixia said, neighbor, I am from Henan.The two women started chatting with each other, and suddenly became warm.Huang Caixia said that Luo Yueli's hair is special, like the female spy in the movie "The Mysterious Missing Ship".Luo Yueli praised Huang Caixia's good figure, she can be a model now.According to Luo Yueli, there is another beautiful girl on the fourth bed, from Shaoyang, Hunan Province, named Yang Xiaoli, she sent her boyfriend there, she is very easy to get along with.Huang Caixia said, that's good, everyone can be like sisters.Luo Yueli picked up her clothes and bucket, and went next door to take a shower.After a while, the door opened, and a girl in a red T-shirt and floral skirt pushed the door in. Where is Luo Yueli?Oh, she went to shower.Huang Caixia agreed.The girl didn't say a second sentence, she sat on the fourth bed to change her shoes, and said nonchalantly, you're new here.There was a special sense of superiority in her tone.Yes, I will take care of her in the future, Huang Caixia said.The girl looked up and smiled, you are welcome, they are all part-time workers, my name is Yang Xiaoli.Huang Caixia said, I see, Luo Yueli introduced me, saying that you sent your boyfriend off, and you asked him to go back at such a late hour.Yang Xiaoli said that he had to go to work tomorrow.Huang Caixia said, where is her boyfriend?Yang Xiaoli said, in Sichuan, we used to work in a shoe factory, and he was the supervisor of the workshop, but now he is unhappy with his job and wants to quit.Huang Caixia said, it's not bad to be a supervisor, my boyfriend and you are fellow villagers.Yang Xiaoli groaned and lay down on the bed.When Luo Yueli came back from the shower, the three women chatted about Yang Xiaoli's boyfriend again. It was obvious that he was a taciturn man who never called people easily. Facing this unfamiliar environment, Huang Caixia's first day went smoothly, and her roommates were relatively friendly. After making the bed and lying down, the wandering seemed to be gone.Huang Caixia didn't sleep well all night. Ma Dongdong was her boyfriend anyway, and she was always worried about him when he wasn't at work.
