The poor husband I picked up turned out to be from a wealthy family

Chapter 877 Qin Feng Looking for a Job

But he didn't give up completely. He remembered his secret vow to turn over a new leaf. He told himself that no matter how hard it got, he would persevere.

One day, he walked to a snack street and saw a faded recruitment notice posted on the door of a small restaurant called "Home Cooking Restaurant": "Recruiting a waiter, hardworking and willing to work. Food and accommodation provided."

Qin Feng hesitated for a moment. The restaurant didn't look big, but it seemed to be doing good business. He straightened his collar, took a deep breath, and walked in.

The shop was bustling with activity, the smell of cooking fumes mixed with the aroma of food. A middle-aged man wearing an apron, who looked like the boss, was counting the bills behind the bar. Qin Feng approached and asked somewhat cautiously, "Boss, please tell me...are you still hiring waiters?"

The boss looked up. She was a kind-looking middle-aged woman. When she saw Qin Feng, she looked him up and down and asked, "Have you done this before?"

Qin Feng shook his head: "No... I haven't done it specifically, but I can endure hardships and am willing to do any job." He was in a state of anxiety, preparing for another rejection, and had even thought about how to explain his situation.

The boss lady seemed to notice his nervousness and smiled, saying in a very easy-going tone: "The work here is hard and the salary is not high, but we provide food and accommodation. Are you willing?"

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect the other party to not immediately ask about his past. He nodded quickly: "Yes! Yes! I can do anything!"

The proprietress nodded: "Okay, then follow me."

She took Qin Feng to the kitchen and briefly introduced his job description: "It's mainly about serving dishes, wiping the table, clearing the bowls and chopsticks, and greeting guests when they come. Just be smart and quick."

Then, the boss lady asked casually, "You don't look like you've been out of work. What difficulties have you encountered before?"

Qin Feng's heart tightened. He lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Boss lady, I... I made mistakes before and was in jail. I just got out not long ago. Finding a job... has not been going well."

He was prepared for the boss's wife to change her mind.

The air was quiet for a few seconds. Qin Feng was so nervous that his palms were sweating.

The proprietress sighed and patted his shoulder: "Everyone has encountered difficulties. Who hasn't made mistakes in their life? The important thing is to know when you are wrong and to be able to correct it."

She paused, her tone becoming serious. "When you work for me, I don't care what you were like before. I only care whether you are willing to work hard now, whether you are clean and honest, and whether you treat customers well. As long as you work hard and behave well, I will give you a job."

Hearing this, Qin Feng's eyes suddenly turned red. The grievances, helplessness, and despair that had been pent up for many days seemed to have found an outlet at this moment. He held back his tears and nodded vigorously, his voice choking with a hint of sob: "Thank you, boss lady! Thank you! I will do my best! I will never cause you any trouble!"

The proprietress smiled and waved her hand. "Alright, don't thank me. Xiao Zhang," she called to the young waiter who was wiping the table, "take him to change into work clothes and get him familiar with the environment. We'll start trying it out this afternoon."

"Okay, Brother Feng, come with me!" Xiao Zhang responded enthusiastically and came over to pat Qin Feng's arm.

Wearing the slightly loose but clean waiter uniform, Qin Feng stood in front of the mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, who looked haggard but with a glimmer of light rekindled in his eyes, and took a deep breath.

Although it was just a job as a restaurant waiter with low salary and hard work, for Qin Feng, it was not just a job, but also a rare trust and an opportunity to start over.

He walked out of the kitchen, looked at the guests coming and going in the restaurant, listened to the clatter of pots and pans and the diners' laughter, and for the first time he felt as if he had really reintegrated into this world of fireworks.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, bathing him in warmth. He knew the road ahead was long and likely still full of challenges, but at least he now had a starting point, a place where he could stand up again with his own hands. He picked up the rag and began diligently wiping the newly vacated table, each movement filled with power.

at this time.

Qin Feng's cell phone suddenly rang.

Qin Feng glanced at the caller ID. It was the familiar intermediary number. His heart skipped a beat, and a premonition crept in. He took a deep breath and answered the call.

"Hello, is this Mr. Qin? Hello, hello, I'm Xiao Zhang!" The voice of the agent Xiao Zhang came from the other end of the phone, sounding slightly excited and a little cautious.

Qin Feng tried his best to make his voice sound calm, "What's the matter?"

"Great news! Mr. Qin, this is fantastic news!" Xiao Wang's voice suddenly rose a little, filled with uncontrollable joy. "That house of yours is the one listed here. A client just looked at the information and is very interested! We've had preliminary discussions about the price and other things, and he thinks it's a good fit. He wants to...he wants to go and see the house in person this afternoon. Is that convenient for you?"

"I...can I do it in the evening? I'm busy during the day."

He had just found a job and didn't want to delay, fearing that he would lose his job if he delayed.

"This... I'll discuss it with the other party and see if they agree."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

"You're welcome." The call was hung up.

A slight smile appeared on Qin Feng's face.

I am really lucky today. I found a job and the house is about to be sold.

This was the only thing he could hope to accomplish.

When the house was sold, he would give half of the money to Li Jingnan and Wu Jiao. At least he could feel somewhat at peace with himself.

It was all he could do now.

He has found a job, which is a good thing for someone like him.

From now on, he would be a good person and work hard to make money. He might not achieve anything great in the future, but when his own children needed help, being able to help a little was the only thing he could do.

Qin Feng lowered his head and continued to wipe the table.

He should cherish this job. He had gotten it with great difficulty.
