Unexpected reunion5000 words(1/2)

Mint took out a box of Golden Throat lozenges from her backpack, broke off one and put it in her mouth. Her throat really hurt, and it hurt so much that she never wanted to speak again.

However, it won’t work if you don’t say it.

What she does now is to speak, follow the tour group, and provide translation services for the foreign tourists in the group at any time.

To be honest, she couldn't understand why foreign countries were shouting about economic crisis every day, but so many foreigners came to China to travel every day. How could they have so much spare money?

But in fact, this is not difficult to understand. As the old saying goes, the bones of a wealthy family will freeze to death on the road to wine and meat. No matter which country or region it is, there will always be a gap between the rich and the poor.

Once upon a time, she also belonged to a wealthy family, and a very wealthy one at that. At that time, she also liked to travel everywhere. Before she was 17 years old, she had visited almost all the places of interest in the world.

At that time, whenever she was lonely or bored, she would buy a first-class ticket and fly to wherever she wanted to go. When she arrived, she would stay in the most expensive hotel, visit the best attractions, and buy whatever she wanted.

You don’t even have to look at the price tag for something, you can just swipe it with your gold card.

At that time, she didn't have any worries in life. To her, money was just a number and she had no concept. She could spend as much as she wanted.

But now, she has to be careful about every penny she spends. For example, the box of medicine in her hand costs 5.8 yuan if she goes to the hospital to get a prescription from a doctor, but it only costs 5.2 yuan if she goes to a personal pharmacy to buy it online.

If you buy it, it’s only 4 yuan 8.

Therefore, she always chooses to shop online, which can save one dollar compared to going to the hospital. One dollar is money, which is enough for her to take the bus once.

No, that's not right, she got a monthly card to take the bus, which cost less than one yuan each time.

In the past, she regarded buses as a scourge, but now she is filled with gratitude. Fortunately, there is such a means of transportation, otherwise she would have to break her legs every day.

She couldn't help laughing to herself.

Such a change should be like falling from heaven to hell. The princess no longer has a pumpkin carriage or glass slippers.

Her life was a fairy tale at the beginning, but it became a reality at the end. I wonder if it will turn into a tragedy in the future.

Her story is really more exciting than the novel. Unfortunately, the novel can be turned directly to the ending, but she doesn't know what her fate will be in the end. She can only live one day at a time.

And every day, we have to fight hard.

To be honest, she couldn't fight anymore, but she still had to persevere.

After holding the pill for a while, she adjusted her voice, then turned on the microphone and continued to organize the tourists.

This is a European tour group that has been in Xihai for five days. During these five days, when visiting the scenic spots, there were special local escorts with her. The local escort was responsible for explaining the scenic spots and historical sites, and she was responsible for the translation. However,

When picking them up from the airport, she was the only one responsible for them. Her work was not really over until they were put on the return plane.

"Attention everyone, we are now going to the airport hall to go through the formalities. The plane will take off in two hours. Before the security check, I will still be responsible for all your questions and answers. Do you have any questions?"

"Yes, there is a problem!" Someone raised his hand.

"Please tell me." She nodded.

"What is that?" A foreign tourist was very interested in the things in the souvenir shop not far away.

She glanced at it and replied, "Facial makeup."

"Oh?" The foreigner was confused.

In fact, she was also at a loss. Although she had done her homework before, Chinese civilization was too splendid, so how could she cover everything?

"It's the painting and makeup on the faces of Chinese opera actors." She had to explain simply.

When it came to makeup, the foreigner understood immediately, but the foreigner was really curious and asked her again, "Can you sing opera?"

She immediately had a bad feeling and shook her head apologetically, "No."

"Sing one!" Foreigners thought she was being modest.

She is miserable, she really doesn’t know how to do it!

But the tourists were unyielding. Customers were God, so she could only find a way to deal with them. But singing opera was really difficult for her, so she thought of a way instead.

"Singing opera is a very professional thing. I have never studied it, but I can tell you a story from opera..." She planned to tell foreigners about Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. Although Liang Zhu is a Shaoxing opera, it is different from Peking opera.

It's far away, but for foreigners, it's almost the same.

"who are they?"

"It's the Chinese version of Romeo and Juliet," she explained.

The expressions of the foreigners suddenly became extremely expectant.

She spoke eloquently, but originally she was just giving an explanation to the foreigners, but as she talked, her own heart became uncomfortable.

"It turned into a butterfly in the end?" the foreigners expressed surprise.

"Yes." She nodded sadly, and suddenly remembered a sentence: It's not that a butterfly cannot fly across the sea, but when the butterfly flies across the sea with great difficulty, it realizes that there is no longer waiting on the other side of the sea.

After the story was told, the plane was about to take off. She saw off the foreigners, but her heart could not calm down for a long time.

If you love someone persistently, you will end up hurting yourself and hurting others.

She found a chair and sat down. She was so tired, her body was tired, and her heart was even more tired.

She really wanted to stop and take a good rest, but she didn't have time to rest for too long.

Just five minutes after she sat down, her cell phone rang. It was related to her other job.

"Mint, please come to the Haidu Building at 7:30 in the evening. We have important guests tonight and we need talents like you."

Talent?

She gave a faint wry smile.

It's just a chat, it's just relatively simple, that's why it seems "noble".

With the development of the economy and the progress of society, people's occupations have become increasingly diverse. Today's nightclubs in Xihai City have become very different from the past. Many stores no longer rely on feasting and entertainment to attract customers.

High-end routes, such as this "Haidu".

In fact, the predecessor of "Haidu" is "Mingdu" nightclub. After changing to a new owner, the business philosophy and style have also changed, focusing on cultural and intellectual lines.

The proprietress of "Haidu" specially hires some educated girls to serve as chat companions. They are the kind who only talk. They don't even need to sell wine. These girls specialize in talking to customers and listen to them talk about their career pressures and family problems.

worry, or discuss fashion with them, share ideals and visions... it is truly a gentle place for men.

Of course, if the girl is willing, she can also appear with the guests. The landlady will not interfere with this, nor will she take a commission. Everyone has their own ambitions, and as long as the girl is willing, there will be no problem.

Of course she is the type who does not appear, so she has no extra income, but "Haidu" takes a high-end route, and the guests spend a lot of money. The boss lady pays them a lot of money. After chatting for one night, they can spend several days with her.

Income from group tours is similar.

So this job is very important to her.

Ten years ago, my father died in an accident, my mother was imprisoned, her home was ransacked, and all her belongings were turned over. She has since been labeled a "corruption offender's daughter."

In the past, everyone envied her for being the daughter of a wealthy family, but since then, everyone has avoided her.

Kinder people sympathize with her, but that's just sympathy, while unkind people add insult to injury and wish to rub salt into her wounds.

She was forced to drop out of school because she was pregnant, and later she never had the chance to repeat her studies. Therefore, her academic qualifications were not high, and it was difficult for her to find a job, so she could only work odd jobs.

But she had been pampered since she was a child, and she didn't learn to do housework in the days after she got married, so that no one even asked her to wash dishes in the restaurant. The only thing she was good at was knowing a few foreign languages, so she found someone to help her in this regard.

I have done various jobs, such as tutoring children, and working with tour groups.

She had never had any experience before, so of course she was not used to it at first, but she had to adapt even if she was not used to it, because she needed money, so much!

At that time, my mother misappropriated public funds, and all 3.5 billion was lost and could not be recovered. Such a large amount was enough to be sentenced to death. My mother was a strong-willed person, how could she be willing to suffer that kind of humiliation? So during the interrogation, she committed suicide out of fear of guilt. Fortunately, she was discovered by the prison guards in time.

, she managed to save her life, but after the suicide attempt, she never woke up again and is still lying in the prison hospital.

After my mother's accident, my grandmother suffered a major blow and became seriously ill. Later, my grandmother sold all her property and her life's paintings, returned all the money to the shareholders, and even forced her uncle and second aunt to

She also used money to pay off the debt together, and almost caused a "family revolution". She knew that her grandmother did all this for her, and because the money could not be repaid, she would always bear the label of "the daughter of a corrupt criminal."

After several years of hard work, the principal was finally repaid, and only the interest was left to be repaid slowly. However, my grandmother also collapsed and passed away not long after.

After my mother was taken away by the police, she was inevitably taken for interrogation. Her passport and visa were all confiscated and she could not go anywhere. The situation remains the same to this day.

She still has interest to pay off, so she has to work hard to make money to "cleanse" herself, and she also needs to live. In addition, she has to be responsible for her mother's medical expenses.

She doesn't even know how she got through these years, because she doesn't have time to think, so she spends all her time doing one thing - making money, making money, making money!

After Mint received the call from the proprietress of "Haidu", she blinked her eyes hard, held back the fragile tears, stood up with force, and rushed to the "Haidu" building without stopping.

"Mint, hurry up, go change clothes!" When she arrived, the landlady urged her, "Don't put on too much makeup, be sensible!"

"I know." She is no longer a newcomer and knows how to measure.

Because of her skill, it only took her ten minutes to tidy herself up. The waiter had already made tea. The top-quality Wuyi Dahongpao cost tens of thousands of yuan per gram.

Although this tea is very expensive, the wine here is not cheap either. The key is that many people will spend 10,000 yuan on drinking wine, but few people will spend 10,000 yuan on drinking tea.

"Tonight's guests are very different. They are professionals. Drinking alcohol is harmful to the body, but drinking tea can soothe the throat." The landlady explained.

She nodded, took the tea tray, and walked to the box.

She was going to the best private room in the store, which used to be the "Rose Date". Although the decoration has been completely changed, she still has a special affection for this place, which is where she and Guan Shouheng met.

place.

As soon as the box door opened, the whole world became fantasy.

Their eyes met, and their heartbeat suddenly stopped.
