It suddenly occurred to me that I haven't seen Lao Wu for a long time. Maybe I was ill or resigned.
? There are two doormen in the reception room, one is Lao Wu and the other is Lao Xu, who are sent by the property management company. The two men take turns on duty.
? After the merger of institutions the year before last, all the people in the original unit moved here to work. When I first came, everything was strange and I felt like a guest. I haven't found a sense of belonging for a long time.
? On a weekend duty, my hometown sent a lot of strawberries, which I couldn't finish for a while. Remembering that it is always good to go in and out of the unit at ordinary times and have a good relationship with the doorman, I packed a bag conveniently, and Lao Wu was on duty. He took the strawberry, his wrinkled face turned into a flower, and he kept saying thank you. Maybe it's the first time someone has given him something. After all, he is not an employee of our unit.
? Since then, Lao Wu has been particularly enthusiastic. At the door, he grabbed the express box for cooking in the morning and insisted on helping to deliver it. However, he had to disturb him. After receiving the courier, I carefully distributed the big goods and enthusiastically helped put them on the car. I know he doesn't want any strawberries, but he feels happy to be respected by others as a doorman.
? On duty again on weekends, bamboo shoots are growing wildly in the bamboo forest in the yard. I looked down for the tender bamboo shoots that had just emerged, hoping to have a taste. Lao Wu is cleaning the back of the building. When he saw it, he came over and whispered to me that the leader wouldn't let me dig bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, but they could grow to the grass. I'll get you a shovel. While digging bamboo shoots and chatting, I realized that Lao Wu was over 60 years old. As a native of Wuhou Village, Jiaolong Town, he is in poor health and the construction industry can't do anything. So he had to go to town to find an easy job as a doorman for all units. It costs 1500 a month, which is enough for the old couple, and he doesn't have to bother the children. He is very satisfied.
? The chances of a small bag of strawberries getting such a rich return are beyond my expectation. Perhaps, as the ancients said, good results come from planting good karma.
May Lao Wu be healthy.
