Forty has a hurdle

Chapter 18 The Magic of Home
Zhao Hongming did not expect that on the first day he came to report, he would work until twelve o'clock in the morning.

When he walked into the house with his already numb legs, it was already twelve thirty-five.

He tiptoed into the house, but saw light still shining through the crack of the bedroom door.

"Click."

"Old Zhao, you're back!" The bedroom door opened, and his wife Qin Yali came out in her pajamas, "Is this the first day of work?"

Originally, she thought that Qin Yuan took her husband to meet the hotel manager today to prepare for the job, but who knew that in the afternoon, she received a call from Zhao Hongming, saying that she would officially start work today and would not be back until later.

Qin Yali didn't think much about it, but was a little happy, after all, her husband's job was considered stable.

It's just that she didn't expect that her husband didn't come home until this time.

"Well, why haven't you slept yet? Didn't I tell you not to wait for me?" Zhao Hongming blamed.

紫艺酒店的门童是按三班倒来上班的，早上8点到下午4点为白班，下午4点到0点为中班，0点到上午8点为晚班。

Each of the three classes works for two days, and after the three shifts, they rest for two days and then continue to rotate. Today, it happens to be the same as the weekend weekend.

Today Zhao Hongming is in middle class.

"It's okay, I just finished preparing for class too.

Eh?What happened to your leg? "Qin Yali went to the water dispenser to pour water for her husband, turned around and saw Zhao Hongming limping, and immediately screamed.

"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't wake up Huanhuan. I'm fine, but I've been standing for a long time today, and my legs are a little bit unbearable."

Zhao Hongming quickly motioned his wife to lower her voice, and slowly sat down on the sofa.

"I'll get you a basin of water to soak your feet." Seeing her husband's exhausted appearance, Qin Yali was very distressed, so she hurriedly fetched a basin of hot water and put it at her husband's feet.

"Hiss, it's comfortable." Putting the sore soles of his feet into the hot water, the scalding water irritated his skin and instantly opened the pores on his body, and Zhao Hongming groaned comfortably.

"Look at you, you've only been working for a day, and you've become like this. You, you lack exercise." Seeing her husband's appearance, Qin Yali couldn't help laughing.

When Zhao Hongming was still working as an office clerk, he stayed in the company all day, did not go to exercise sooner or later, and couldn’t control his mouth, so his weight kept increasing. By the time he was unemployed, he was already close to 73 kg.

Qin Yali is different. She walks up and down in class every day, and her waist is sore and her legs are swollen after a day, but after more than ten or twenty years, she is used to it.

The number of exercise steps on WeChat often occupies the cover.

"Well, you don't know! This job is really hard to do. Think about it, you have to stand outside the door for eight hours a day, and it's the same for you." Zhao Hongming said weakly, slamming his mouth.

After all, Jiangcheng is a small town. Even a famous hotel like Ziyi Hotel cannot have a high occupancy rate every day.

Today, most of the guests in the hotel had already checked in at noon, and only a small number of them checked in during Zhao Hongming's working hours.

So most of the time today, it is his "little" master Jiang Xiaowei who is teaching him some basic knowledge of doormen.

During the period, I can take advantage of going to the toilet and rest for a while while drinking water. Except for the one-hour time when eating, I can alternately eat, and I have to stand at the door of the hotel for the rest of the time.

Zhao Hongming finally knew the reason why the boy's salary was four thousand.

With a salary of two to three thousand, I am afraid that most people will not be able to stick to it.

"I know, I know, but Lao Zhao, it's been hard to find a fairly stable job, you have to persevere, and you must not give up because of hard work."

Qin Yali found a small stool and sat down, reached into the water basin, took Zhao Hongming's feet, and gently kneaded them.

"No, wife, you've had a hard day too, go to sleep quickly, I'll just soak for a while." His wife's actions made Zhao Hongming's heart warm.

"It's okay, I just finished preparing for class, and my mind is too active now, so I definitely can't fall asleep. Let's talk with you." Qin Yali declined, and continued to pinch her husband's feet.

"How is Huanhuan? I'm not at home today, and you are at school again. I don't know what it's like for this guy to be alone at home."

Zhao Hongming sat up straight, and pulled his wife to sit on the sofa beside him.

"Fortunately, on Monday, you helped him apply for a bus card and a school meal card, otherwise I would have been caught off guard today."

When it comes to children, Qin Yali is also a little worried.

After Zhao Hongming decided to go to Ziyi Hotel to work, the bus card and school meal card were completed on Monday, and they were put on Zhao Huan at any time.

Zhao Hongming didn't come back this afternoon, so Qin Yali had no choice but to contact Zhao Huan's head teacher when school was about to leave, and asked the head teacher to keep Zhao Huan at school for dinner.

Qin Yali didn't finish her work until after self-study in the evening, went to school to pick up Zhao Huan, and helped Zhao Huan finish her homework.

"Actually, Huanhuan didn't go to bed until it was close to 11:30." Qin Yali simply lifted her feet onto the sofa and fell on Zhao Hongming's body. "Honey, I was hired by the school as the grade group leader."

Qin Yali's topic turned to another direction.

"Hey, that's a good thing! Congratulations, Team Leader Qin." Zhao Hongming smiled, stretched out his hands and gently pressed both sides of his wife's temples.

Qin Yali suffers from headaches, and has visited all major hospitals over the years, but has not found out the slightest cause.

Zhao Hongming often massages his wife's head.

"Congratulations for what!"

Feeling the warmth from her husband's hand, Qin Yali gently closed her eyes.

"It's too busy. The school has too many things to do now. The teaching tasks are already tight. The higher-ups are still conducting investigations like this and pressing the forms into the school. After the head teachers of each class have completed these tasks, they have to summarize them on the grade level. Now I'm doing it all."

Qin Yali complained.

I still remember that when I first started working, although the salary was not high, there were not so many chores. In addition to attending classes every day, it was just preparing lessons, so I could really concentrate on doing research.

It is different now, the social economy has developed, and the salary has also improved, but Qin Yali feels that compared with ten years ago, the work is much more tiring.

Colleagues in the school now jokingly call themselves "cousin" and "cousin".

It means brothers and sisters who make watches.

"At the beginning, I feel uncomfortable. It's not the same as me. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Let's work hard together." Zhao Hongming comforted.

The couple just sat on the sofa and didn't return to the bedroom until the water in the footbath became cold.

Home seems to have a special magic power, any fatigue will disappear without a trace as long as you arrive at home.
