Chapter 037.
After chatting with Mr. Huai Ming about going out to work, Zhen Zhen was excited and looking forward to it.
Of course, her heart is still very unsure, afraid that she is not competent, the pressure in the heart, then want to improve themselves faster, so the next few days, she did not think of anything else, put all the attention and energy on learning.
The more knowledge she mastered, the more solid she felt in her heart.
Wednesday evening.
When he was washing his hands and getting his chopsticks, he said to Zhen Zhen, “The job has been arranged.”
Hearing this, Zhen Zhen turned her head to look at him, “Really?”
Servant Huai Ming took the chopsticks and nodded at her, “Uh-huh.”
Zhen Zhen couldn’t hold back her excitement and couldn’t hide the happiness on her face, she turned around and headed out, her voice clear and crisp, “Eat.”
Whenever he saw her this happy, Squire Huai Ming could not help but smile along with her.
He took his chopsticks outside and sat down at the table with Zhen Zhen.
He reached out and handed the chopsticks to Zhen Zhen, then continued, “In the few days before Wen leaves, you can go over there to learn from her and get used to it. When she leaves next week, you can take over directly.”
Zhen Zhen looked at Servant Huai Ming and nodded seriously, “Okay.”
No matter what, she had to take this first step properly.
She believed that as long as she worked hard, she should be able to get this job down.
Of course, encouraging and cheering herself up did not make the tension and pressure in her heart subside.
After dinner, she immediately went next door to find Li Shuang.
Serving Huai Ming had nothing to do, so he went next door with her.
He Shuo opened the door and let them both in.
Li Shuang took Zhen Zhen to the room to talk, while Shi Huai Ming and He Shuo stayed outside.
They poured water and sat down on the sofa.
He Shuo said, “I feel like you’re like a follower now.”
Servant Huai Ming: “……”
He silently picked up a glass of water, and as he drank, his eyes accidentally swept over the photos hanging on the wall.
He Shuo looked at him and smiled, also picking up the cup to drink water.

In the room.
Li Shuang listens to Zhen Zhen finish her work, her eyes full of surprise, “So the person who is going to fill Wen’s gap is you?”
Zhen Zhen nodded at her, “It wasn’t finalized before, so I didn’t tell you guys.”
Li Shuang smiled and asked, “Was it Shui Huai Ming’s idea?”
Zhen Zhen shook her head, “It was my own idea, I wanted to go on my own so I let him do the favor.”
Li Shuang felt very happy, “You can do it, you are so thoughtful now.”
Zhen Zhen said, “I also want to go to society and create my own value.”
Li Shuang was impressed with her, “Your thoughts are different.”
Said and agreed, “That’s right, women and men alike, can go to society to create value.”
Zhen Zhen smiled, “In the future, I can go to work with you.”
Li Shuang: “We’ll go there together in the morning.”
Zhen Zhen: “Uh-huh!”

Jen was in a state of excitement all night.
Even as she lay in bed at night sleeping, her mind was full of all kinds of imagery of going to work.
She was excited and happy and nervous and stressed, so she was happy and happy for a while and encouraged herself for a while.
Thinking about it, she would also feel in a trance, feeling that she had come this far, just like a dream.
Nervous excitement without sleepiness, Jen tossed and turned until the middle of the night before barely falling asleep.
When she woke up in the morning, her eyes opened and she was instantly conscious, her spirit was a hundred times more than usual.
After washing up, she waited for Mr. Huai Ming to come back to eat.
Before Serving Huai Ming went to class, she carried her bag for Serving Huai Ming to see, nervously asking him, “Is it okay for me to dress like this?”
Servant Huai Ming nodded and encouraged her, “It’s okay, don’t be too nervous.”
Zhen Zhen looked at him and said, “But I can’t control it ……”
Serving Huai Ming looked at her and smiled, suddenly lowered his head and gently kissed her on the cheek, “Go for it.”
Zhen Zhen was kissed by him scored a moment of God, heartbeat slightly chaotic and nodded at him, “I will cheer.”
Watching Servant Huai Ming go out to go to class, Zhen Zhen retracted her gaze, covered her chest and took a few deep breaths.
Just after taking a deep breath, there was a knock on the door.
She went over to open the door, and it was Li Shuang who came to ask her to go to work with him.
Zhen Zhen adjusted her breathing and went out to follow Li Shuang to the food store.
Li Shuang is holding a bulging stomach and carrying a bag in her hand. She looked at Zhen Zhen for a while and asked with a smile, “Are you nervous?”
Zhen Zhen exhaled and said frankly, “Well, especially nervous.”
Li Shuang is still smiling, “There is no need to be so nervous, there is nothing difficult to sell things, what people want what you give on the line, not happy can not sell to him.”
Zhen Zhen laughed out loud.
Of course she knows that salesman is a very popular and enviable job, do not have to look at people’s faces.
The salesmen at the supply and marketing center in their village are all too powerful to be considered as salesmen.
Li Shuang told Zhen Zhen on the way a lot of work in the store will encounter the situation.
Zhen Zhen listened carefully and memorized it all.
When she arrived at the store, she followed Li Shuang inside.
Wen arrived early today and greeted Zhen Zhen with her usual greeting, “Cotton, here to buy something?”
The first thing she said was, “She’s here to take over your job.”
Shizuku was stunned, “Huh?”
Reacting, “So it’s you!”
Jen smiled at her and nodded, “I wasn’t sure before, so I didn’t tell you.”
The three were talking when the manager of the store came over.
The staff in the store all greeted the manager, so Zhen Zhen naturally followed suit and introduced herself slightly nervously, “Manager Liu, I’m Lin Zhen Zhen, here to report for work.”
Hearing Zhen Zhen’s name the manager knew.
He called on Zhen Zhen and then called on Wen, “Then you two come to the office with me for a moment.”
Jenny and Wen went with him to the manager’s office.
Manager Liu first told Ah Wen, “This comrade Lin Zhen Zhen, she is here to fill your vacancy, in the next three days you help to bring her along, so that she can adapt to the work as soon as possible.”
Ah Wen smiled and agreed, “Manager, leave it to me, no problem.”
Manager Liu then looked at Zhen Zhen and said, “You can follow Comrade Qin Ah Wen for the next three days, she won’t be coming in next week, so you’ll have to take charge of the counter by yourself then.”
Zhen Zhen also nodded, “Manager, don’t worry, I will study hard.”
After explaining what should be explained, Manager Liu let Zhen Zhen and Ah Wen go back to work in the store.
Coming out of the manager’s office, Zhen Zhen breathed a small sigh of relief and whispered in a trembling voice, “I’m dying of nervousness.”
She opened her hand and held it out for Shizuku to see, “My hand is sweaty.”
Wen smiled, from her pocket handkerchief, gave her a hand wipe said, “Do not worry, Liu manager is quite good, you follow me in the next few days, slowly learn slowly memorize, if you do not understand, ask me.”
Zhen Zhen nodded at her, and the two of them smiled and went to the store together.
Going behind the counter, no one came to buy anything for a while.
Wen picked up the scale on the counter and said to Jen, “I’ll teach you how to use the scale first.”
Weighing was something Jen was still familiar with, she didn’t need to be taught by Shizuku, “I can use a scale, I’ve sold things at home.”
“Yes?” Arwen turned her head to look at Jen, “That’s much easier.”
She then put the scale down and turned to Jen to introduce Jen to all the items they would be responsible for.
Remembering the items and their corresponding prices, being able to weigh pounds on the scale, and being able to do the math and find the money was pretty much all that was needed.
Jen followed Shizuku around and spent the first day mostly watching how Shizuku sold things and memorizing the items and corresponding prices herself.
On the second day, she helped Shizuku by weighing and delivering items or collecting money.
On the third day, Shizuku asked Jenny to take care of the counter while she helped her on the side.
The main purpose was to see if there was anything that Jenny could not remember and to remind her.
In the evening, towards the end of the day, as it was Shizuku’s last day with Jenny, and thinking that Shizuku wouldn’t be coming back next week, Jenny couldn’t help but feel a little nervous and asked Shizuku, “How am I doing now?”
Shizuku affirmed, “Very good, no problem, you can do it.”
Encouraged, Jen cheered herself up, “I’ll memorize it again at home.”
In the past three days, she had studied with Wen, she had taken a notebook and memorized all the products and prices at the counter by hand, and every day when she came home from work, she did nothing else but memorize the products and prices.
In fact, if she were in charge of a pork counter, she wouldn’t need to memorize so much.
But Wen was in charge of selling a wide variety of things, ranging from oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and other ingredients needed in the kitchen to toothpaste and soap needed in daily life.
Time to get off work.
When Li Shuang came over with his bag, Zhen Zhen and Ah Wen followed Li Shuang from work.
Leading the way out of the door of the food store, Li Shuang asked Zhen Zhen, “How’s the learning going? Is it okay?”
Zhen Zhen was confident, nodded her head and said, “It should be fine.”
Li Shuang looked at her and smiled a little, “Then it’s definitely okay.”
After talking about Jen Jen, she looks at Shizuku again and says, “Take care of yourself when you get to the new place.”
Shizuku, quite saddened in her heart, replies back, “You guys take care of yourselves too.”
Jen took her hand and squeezed it.
As they walked to the front door of the school, Li Shuang and Zhen Zhen gave Shizuku a few more instructions and watched her go.
When Shizuku was far away, Jen and Li Shuang headed for the school gates.
Being in the same Hee Town, they thought it was not much of a separation.
But over the next three years or so, they and Shizuku had only seen each other a handful of times.
***
Into the family home back to the house.
Zhen Zhen went in, put down her bag, and took her food stamps and lunch box out again, and went with Li Shuang to the cafeteria to get a meal.
Since going to work at the sub-food store, her days have been more like Li Shuang’s.
Every time Wu Dafeng saw Zhen Zhen and Li Shuang moving around the yard like this, she couldn’t help but shake her head and sigh.
She can’t help but feel anxious when she sees Zhen Zhen like this day after day, and she doesn’t understand why Zhen Zhen herself isn’t anxious.
She can’t understand why Zhen Zhen herself isn’t in a hurry. She tosses this and that, but she doesn’t toss having a baby.
If this were her own sister, she could have died of worry.
Zhen Zhen wasn’t worried about this now, especially in the last few days, her mind was fully focused on her work.
In order to do her job better and faster, she couldn’t think of anything else.
On Sunday she didn’t dare to relax, in the morning after waking up and washing up, she immediately took out the list of goods and memorized it.
After breakfast, she didn’t go out to play, but still memorized the list in her book over and over again.
Serving Huai Ming could see that she was nervous, and after lunch, he took the book and mentioned it to her again.
He said the brands and names of the items and asked Zhen Zhen to say the prices.
Zhen Zhen was able to say everything very quickly.
When he finished, he put the book away and looked at Zhen Zhen and said, “Just write it down, you don’t need to memorize it.”
Zhen Zhen said, “I’m afraid I’ll forget.”
Mr. Huai Ming said, “It doesn’t matter even if you forget, it’s not an exam, you can’t think of it, you just need to turn it over and look at it. When you sell more in the future, and come into contact with them every day, you will naturally memorize them all.”
Zhen Zhen thinks it makes sense and nods twice at him.
She couldn’t let her push herself to the point where she couldn’t breathe, she had to let her relax.
Servant Huai Ming looked at Zhen Zhen and added, “You’re a bit overly tense, that’s not good either, I’ll take you out to play.”
Zhen Zhen had no other thoughts in her head and asked him, “Where to play?”
Servant Huai Ming directly stood up, “Take you to take a picture.”
Taking pictures?
This was a new thing for Zhen Zhen.
She tilted her head and looked at Servant Huai Ming, “Going to a photo studio?”
Servant Huai Ming nodded, “Uh-huh.”
Zhen Zhen didn’t know why he suddenly thought of going to take pictures.
But she was indeed distracted because she had never taken a picture even when she was growing up.
She reacted for a moment and stood up, then cheered up again and said, “Then …… then I’ll go change into something pretty.”
After saying that she went back to her room.
Into the house to take out their own clothes, although not much also picked a long time.
Changed clothes and she looked in the mirror to re-braid her hair, her eyebrows and eyes smiling, each hair is stroked neatly.
