Chapter 82 The sunset is brilliant (Readers, stop raising money, you are going to die soon)

On his first night at the construction site, Lin Qingdu meditated on the bed board.

Just after dawn, there was movement on the construction site. The contractor kicked open the door and shouted: "It's time for breakfast. Get up quickly. If you're late, you'll be gone!"

The three of them got up immediately, washed briefly, and then went to eat. By the way, Lin Qingdu didn't have a toothbrush or toothpaste, so he just rinsed his mouth with water.

When the three of them arrived below, they saw a group of workers wearing yellow safety helmets squatting on the ground picking up lunch boxes. People lined up next to them to distribute them.

Lin Qingdu came to the front of the line and received the box lunch. Following suit, he also squatted on the ridge and began to eat.

Not to mention the lunch box at the construction site, it was very boring. After eating, he had to work. He was assigned to a downstairs that was being built, given a small cart, and began to transport materials.

There are many things to be transported, sometimes bricks, sometimes cement, sometimes just simple building materials, and the working location is not fixed. Basically, as long as you shout, Lin Qingdu will pull the cart there.

Meng Changlin and Wang Qiang were also assigned similar tasks. The three of them were scattered around the construction site, and they could only meet and chat during meals.

Lin Qingdu still thought that the work on the construction site was too easy. After only two days of working, his body felt exhausted. Firstly, the food was too poor and he was not nutritious. Secondly, the veteran at the construction site saw Lin Qingdu. He is tender-faced, willing to work hard, and he is diligent. He can't help but call him around. Not to mention a little Taoist priest who builds the foundation, he can't stand even the three big green bulls.

Many workers went to restaurants nearby because their packed lunches were poor. Lin Qingdu thought the restaurants were too expensive, so he didn't go there.

Lin Qingdu didn't know that several young workers had already started betting privately on how many days he could last.

It was noon and the sun was just right. Even though it was already late autumn and winter was about to begin, the construction site was still a steamy scene. Lin Qingdu had just pulled a cart of materials and was sitting on the railing wiping sweat with a towel hanging around his neck. Someone not far away called him again and asked him to come over and help.

Just as Lin Qingdu was about to go over, he was stopped by an old man who was working with him. The old man turned his face and cursed: "You bitch, do your own work!"

Lin Qingdu smiled and said: "It's okay, I still have the strength, it's good to go over and help."

"You coward, you've done so much work today, you're lying if you're not tired, just rest here!"

Lin Qingdu had no choice but to follow the old man's wishes and sit down to rest.

This old man is also a strange person. Even though he has a lean and thin figure, and is dark and small, he can be unambiguous when working. Every time he pulls a cart, he doesn't care whether it's cold or not. He takes off his coat and exposes his roots. He has clear ribs. In his words, don’t ruin your coat. You will definitely sweat a lot when you work anyway.

He pulled the rope on the trolley to his shoulders, and used his two slender legs to push forward and back. The veins on his neck popped out, and the muscles on his body were immediately exposed. In this way, he could do it every time Miraculously, he pulled the carts piled up like a hill.

Moreover, the old man didn't want others to instigate Lin Qingdu to do what he did, so the most he said was to tell him to take a rest. When the two got acquainted and chatted, Lin Qingdu realized that the reason why the old man was so kind to him was that Because his grandson is about the same age as him, every time the old man talks about his grandson, he can't hide the pride on his face.

The old man's son and daughter-in-law died in a car accident early in his life, leaving an old man and a young child to depend on each other. The young man managed to do well in his own studies and was admitted to university and even got a master's degree!

That was a master's degree student, who was even better than a college student. The reason why the old man still worked out at such an old age was to subsidize his grandson's living expenses. He did it secretly without telling his grandson.

Lin Qingdu would also show admiration at the appropriate time to satisfy the old man's vanity. Every time after chatting, the old man would pat his shoulder with sincerity and say: "Xiao Lin, you are still young. You have earned a lot of money." For money, you still need to study, at least finish high school. You can’t do this job on a construction site for a long time. If you don’t work for a long time, it will be useless!”

Lin Qingdu asked: "Hasn't that guy been doing this for half his life?"

"I'm different from you, different!"

The old man just waved his hand, but didn't say what the difference was!

Today, the red sun slowly sank on the edge of the city, the sunset was particularly gorgeous, and the fire clouds lit up half of the sky. The sky is half light and half dark, and it is getting late.

When Lin Qingdu was getting his lunch box, he found Meng Changlin and Wang Qiang, who were reluctant to spend money to go out to restaurants.

"I'll take you somewhere!"

"Where are we going to eat?"

"You'll know once you go there."

Wang Qiang didn't want to go at first, but Lin Qingdu half pulled and half pushed him and forced him to go.

The three of them took their lunch boxes and took the elevator directly to the roof of the building.

A thick metal beam extended outside. Lin Qingdu pointed at the beam with his chin, "Look at your courage, do you dare to go over?"

Ordinary people would be frightened to the point of weakening their legs just by looking at the tens of thousands of feet below. These two people indeed looked normal and walked up directly.

"Oh, be careful!"

Lin Qingdu spoke hurriedly, and the two of them walked quite smoothly until they reached the middle of the beam and sat down.

As soon as they sat down, Lin Qingdu also came over. The three of them sat side by side on the tall building, watching the sunset on the horizon.

The light of dusk is golden and distant, and the setting sun seems to be flowing in front of you, intersecting with the clear blue sky in the distance. The figures below are as small as black dots, feeling transparent and illusory.

The orange rays of sunlight shone on the faces of the three of them, and Lin Qing's laughter was particularly clear, "How is it here? The scenery is great!"

"It's really good!" Meng Changlin praised.

Wang Qiang didn't speak, just lowered his head and ate his lunch.

If noon is the wind and dragonflies in the long key, then dusk is the puff of smoke in the minor key. Memories return with the breath. The air between the three people is silent for a moment. They all quietly look at the scenery in front of them, each falling into some kind of memory.

Lin Qingdu coughed and said, "I've seen you all depressed these past few days. Is there something on your mind?"

"We are so old, there will always be some troubles, don't you?"

Lin Qingdu thought about it, and it was right. He was on the mountain, worrying every day about whether this month's subsidy would come down, and whether the rice would be enough to eat. After coming down from the mountain, he was looking forward to the time when his salary would be paid.

"That's right!"

"If we don't ask you, don't you need to ask us?"

"Don't ask, don't ask. I just want you to have fun while eating, smell the wind, look at the color of the sunset, and listen to the sound of the clouds."

When Wang Qiang heard this, he rarely twitched the corner of his mouth. He didn't know if he was laughing. Lin Qingdu took out an old radio from his arms and said, "I borrowed this from someone else. It should be good." "Yes." He adjusted the radio and made a rustling sound. Suddenly, he adjusted the channel and the music started.

"Promise" The past life makes me more and more depressed, and the love that is lost is sweeter. Sometimes dreamers always wake up, don't wake me up, I am not dreaming

How many years have passed, three lifetimes of drunken dreams, half a bottle of cool autumn, the sunset is especially gentle, everything is romantic at this moment.

The three of them faced the sunset side by side, listening to music and eating box lunches.

The lunch box seemed to be mixed with the flavor of sunset, making it delicious.

While the three of them were eating their lunch, they heard a noise coming from below. Looking down, they saw a group of workers surrounding the foreman, who was beating one person with a wooden stick.

Lin Qingdu raised his eyes and looked down.

The one who was beaten was the old man!
