Daily feeding of mermaids

Perhaps it was because Chu Yue's promotional words were too shocking, or maybe it was because of his own face, many girls came to ask Chu Yue to take the leaflets, which helped him a lot.

As time went by, people came and went on the commercial street. Chu Yue worked from 6 o'clock in the evening to 9 o'clock in the evening, and finally finished distributing the leaflets in her hand, and finally she was able to leave the station for a whole day The place.

Fortunately, Chu Yue's legs are now more and more used to walking on land. For him, after standing on the spot and handing out flyers for three hours, there was only a slight soreness on his legs. Some muscles get tired.

It seems that even if Chu Yue is a mermaid, he still has enough ability to do a temporary part-time job like handing out leaflets.

Successfully completed the work task, and it was done perfectly. Chu Yue stood at the same place, picked up the big black backpack that had been carrying the flyers before, turned around and wanted to leave, he planned to go straight back to the grilled fish shop, and was going to claim his 60 from the boss. Huge wages for a buck.

The girl who had been standing by the side staring at Chu Yue who was eager to try, saw that the little brother who had been distributing leaflets in the commercial street all night was about to leave, her face was a little anxious, and she rushed forward to stop Chu Yue. Don't let him go, I hope Chu Yue can leave a contact information.

Looking at the hopeful girl in front of her eyes, Chu Yue didn't know how to deal with it for a while. Even in the sea, the little mermaid had never encountered such a "blocking tiger". In society, no one has ever told him what to do when encountering such a thing.

Chu Yue's heart suddenly flustered, he scratched his curly hair helplessly, and grabbed his curly hair even more wildly. After thinking for a while, he said realistically, "Sorry, I don't have a mobile phone."

Passerby girl: "..."

Hearing this, the girl pouted and walked away: "If you don't want to give it, then don't give it. This kind of excuse is too bad, really..."

Chu Yue who really doesn't have a mobile phone: "..."

Looking at the back of the passer-by girl leaving resolutely, Chu Yue frowned, and whispered softly at a volume only she could hear: "What I said is clearly true. I do not have a mobile phone. This is a fact. I Not deceiving..."

…………

The night is already very intense, the street lamps on both sides of the road have all been turned on, and there are many shops on both sides of the commercial street, and there are all kinds of goods in it, making it dizzying to see.

Chu Yue was walking on the commercial street. Through the glass window outside, she could clearly see the people moving inside. People's voices and laughter interspersed with it, making the street that was originally silent in the night very noisy and peaceful. lively.

Under the dim yellow streetlights, Chu Yue's slightly curly hair was coated with a layer of brilliance, and that delicate and beautiful face seemed to be covered with a layer of tulle, making it look a little unreal.

In the eyes of countless passers-by, the handsome young man walked across the roads, streets and alleys in the face of the sudden "attention ceremony", and came to the grilled fish shop with a thriving business. He opened the door and walked away. go in.

The boss was busy in the shop trying to settle the accounts, but he only saw Chu Yue who had just entered the door with chestnut curly hair, and he immediately recognized it as the young man who helped him distribute leaflets tonight.

The boss squinted his eyes and smiled, and when he thought of the turnover of the grilled fish shop today, he laughed even more from ear to ear, so when he saw Chu Yue, he was overjoyed and said, "Little handsome guy, are you back?"

Chu Yue hummed softly. He looked at the boss with anticipation: "Boss, I've finished my work, uh... when can I be paid?"

"Okay, I'll send it to you now." Thinking that the sudden surge in business in the grilled fish shop today is all due to Chu Yue, and the boss paid the wages quite happily, he said with a smile in his tone, "About wages Well, whether it's cash, or WeChat and Alipay transfers, I can do it, um...what kind of payment method do you want, handsome boy?"

Chu Yue touched her nose: "Cash."

When the boss heard this, he glanced at Chu Yue in surprise. After all, in this smart age where everyone has a mobile phone, using mobile phones to make quick payments is the most convenient way. It is best for money to be able to complete transactions through WeChat and Alipay, because Carrying cash on your body is always a little inconvenient, it is better to carry your mobile phone directly.

However, the boss's surprise at Chu Yue came and went quickly, he just stood there for a while, and then he took 60 yuan from the cash register to Chu Yue, and said happily: "Here, a total of 60 yuan, you counting."

Chu Yue solemnly accepted the two banknotes handed to him by the boss. Although the banknotes were as light as a soft feather and could be blown away by a gust of wind, the little mermaid only felt that her hands seemed to be It was as heavy as a heavy stone, like getting a heavyweight golden treasure.

Finally got the 60 yuan that he had earned through hard work, when Chu Yue looked down at the colorful banknotes in his hand, his heart was filled with joy.

With trembling hands, he stuffed the money into his pocket, and finally pressed down the money in his pocket as if he had found a treasure, so as to prevent it from falling out of his pocket suddenly when he was walking.

Finally, he has money too, the little mermaid thought excitedly.

The boss who stood by and watched the whole process of Chu Yue receiving her wages: "..."

It's just 60 yuan. What's there to be excited about? What's the excitement?

The boss observed a look of excitement and excitement on Chu Yue's face, and they intertwined to form a more complex expression. However, this complex expression fell into the eyes of the boss, but it revealed A sense of social sadness.

The boss standing behind the cashier couldn't help but sigh in his heart, life is really not easy, let's see how excited the little handsome guy is.

Chu Yue didn't know anything about the boss's rich psychological activities, and she didn't even know that her image was shaped by the human beings in front of her as a hard-working, poor and sad social animal.

Suddenly, Chu Yue's finger moved and touched the big black backpack on his back, and an idea appeared in his mind.

"Boss, how much is your backpack? Can you sell it to me?" Chu Yue said surprisingly.

"You...you want to buy this backpack from me?" The boss' tone suddenly became a little strange, and he looked at Chu Yue incredulously, "Why? It's just an old backpack."

Could it be that the little handsome guy's life is so difficult that he won't let go of such an old backpack?

Chu Yue and the boss looked at each other, and said calmly, "Because it's easy to use." Stuffed his large plastic bag into the backpack, there was more than enough space.

boss:"……"

Chu Yue's simple and brutal reason made him completely unable to refute, and the boss felt that he was speechless.

The boss looked at Chu Yue, and there was a hint of unbearable expression in his eyes. He clicked his tongue and waved his hands repeatedly: "Forget it, I don't want your money for this backpack. If you want it, you can just give it to me." is you."

This backpack was actually given by the boss when he bought a mobile phone on Taobao Double Eleven last year. It was actually a gift. Moreover, the surface of the backpack was even stamped with the big LOGO of the mobile phone, which was conspicuous and rude. He wanted to take it out and use it. I'm ashamed, afraid of being laughed at by others, since Chu Yue wants this backpack so much, it doesn't matter if I give it to him.

"Really?" Chu Yue's eyes lit up, "Thank you boss."

The boss laughed and said loudly, "Thank you? It's just a backpack."

In the middle of speaking, he suddenly remembered something, took out a disposable plastic lunch box from the cash register, stuffed it into Chu Yue's hand, and changed the subject: "Oh, handsome guy, look at my poor memory, I almost Just forget, this is for you, thank you for bringing so many customers to our ultimate grilled fish restaurant tonight, the publicity effect is very good, this box of fried fish is given to you, free of charge."

The heat of the fried fish was transmitted directly to Chu Yue's palm through a thin layer of plastic lunch box. Without even thinking about it, she knew that the fried fish in the box had just been deep-fried and was still hot just after taking it out of the pan.

Chu Yue's nose moved, and he sniffed the box carefully, and it did smell like fish.

Chu Yue took the lunch box without saying a word, her beautiful eyes became brighter, and he thanked the owner of the grilled fish shop again.

Not only do you get wages, but you also have fried fish to eat. This kind of work is also very loving.

……

It was already 09:30 in the evening when I left the grilled fish shop. Chu Yue, a mermaid who has a semi-social fear of human society, originally came to the bustling commercial street just to look for Gu Fengting, although no one was found in the end. , but as a mermaid, it was also a rare experience for him to experience working in human society.

The only thing Chu Yue didn't expect was that in the end, his harvest would be so rich.

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

Chu Yue put his big backpack on his back, which contained all his belongings, and he walked slowly along the long coastline. Because the little mermaid was in a happy mood now, his steps couldn't help but lighten up a bit.

The sea breeze at night was very cool, and there was a hint of salty seawater smell in the wind. The sea breeze lifted Chu Yue's bangs, revealing a large smooth forehead.

The moonlight was shining brightly, covering the canals on both sides like a silver veil, and the sea not far away was shimmering under the bright moonlight. Relying on the faint light of the moon, Chu Yue groped back to a bridge hole in the dark.

I heard that people living in human society have their own houses. On the same day, after a day of study, or a day of hard work, human beings will return to their houses to rest after sunset and spend a long time. In the dark night, until the dawn of the next day, the human city will completely wake up, they will leave the house again, and continue to study and work the next day.

Day after day, week after week.

Chu Yue has no money, and cannot afford to buy a human house. Since he has decided to survive in human society, it is not an option for him to sleep in the sea all the time, so he has no choice but to find a bridge hole near the Sunshine Coast as a bridge. Temporary house.

This bridge hole is dry and windproof, and there is a layer of haystacks inside. It is barely clean, and it is suitable for Chu Yue to live in for the time being.

Moreover, the important point is that the bridge hole is not far from the sea, as long as Chu Yue raises her head, she can see the sea not far away.

The sea is the mother of the mermaid. Even if Chu Yue is standing on the human land, as long as he can see his "mother" when he looks up, Chu Yue will always feel a little more secure in his heart.

If Qiaodong can be regarded as a home, then he has a home now.
