Chapter 18: Six Degrees of Separation Theory
The barber shop where my mother works is a medium-sized store that is estimated to be 70 to 80 square meters. It is considered good in Hutai County. There are several mirrors corresponding to swivel chairs and a shampoo basin.
At this time, there are no high-end sofa lounge chairs beside the sink. People are also popular to cut their hair and blow their heads for styling. Most of the characters on the front of the hair salon are five yuan for men and ten yuan for women. Ten yuan.
This price is not much different from the price of some small barbershops in third-tier cities in later generations, but the facilities are far worse. The average barbershop stands and rinses the head after getting a haircut. This is what Yang Lichun is in. A barber shop.
In fact, the boss also earns a lot, but the staff earns very limited.
When Wei Sheng walked in, he saw his mother Yang Lichun was baking her hair, and the guest was an old lady in her sixties, her half-white hair was smeared with black cream, it seemed that she was going to dye her hair black.
"Mom." Wei Sheng entered the door with a smile, and saw two other women in the shop chatting vigorously. She had a vague impression of these two people. They were both apprentices in charge of helpers in the shop.
However, Yang Lichun is a simple person, and has never been able to spare himself, and even rushes to work if he has a job, but helpers are spared.
She remembered that the boss was a man and was not in the shop at this time.
"Xiao Sheng is here?" Because Wei Sheng used to come to the store to help his mother sweep the floor and wipe the table, it was not surprising that Yang Lichun had arrived.
"Oh! Why are you baking this! It's all on the roots of my ears!" The old lady called out suddenly, causing Yang Lichun to look back quickly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I will wipe it for you." Or it is not a big deal. It is more common for hair dye ointment to stick to the skin, but the old lady refuses to let go, "Oh my god, burn I'm dead, hurry up!"
Yang Lichun hurriedly wiped it with a rag. She knew that some people were allergic to the ointment and had a burning sensation on the skin, so she didn't dare to care.
Snapped! The old lady suddenly raised her hand and opened Yang Lichun's hand, and shouted sharply, "What did you do! Wipe my ears with a rag? Get your boss for me!"
Yang Lichun hurriedly apologized again, saying, "These towels are all clean..."
"Clean is all ointment on it? You fool you fools! I paid you to make hair and look at you for me!" She turned to look in the mirror again to look at her ears, "You see my ears are red !"
This old lady looked like a mean person, and she screamed at Yang Lichun, which was really a bit of a loss.
Yang Lichun apologized in addition to an apology, knowing that it would be useless to say anything else when he met an unreasonable old man.
Wei Sheng was angry, and he was about to speak, but Yang Lichun hurriedly stopped him and said, "You go home first!"
"I don't care! Just find your boss! I won't tell you." The old lady twisted her **** and sat on the chair.
The helper had already called, and the boss also stepped through the door anxiously. After entering the store, he didn’t understand the situation. He slapped Yang Lichun with a swear word, and then apologized to the old lady and said next time. Come and cut your hair for free.
Yang Lichun sighed and turned his head, and saw his daughter standing upright at the door, with complicated eyes and her lips pressed tightly, so she hurriedly stepped forward, "Xiao Sheng, you go home and wait for mom. Mom is here to work. "
Wei Sheng paused for a while, then nodded gently. She knew that she was a child now, and she was afraid that she would ruin her mother's job by going up to help her.
Although she doesn't care about this job, mother cares.
I have the ability to come forward to curse and even pull my mother away, but I don't have the ability to leave my mother ignorant afterwards.
Think about my mother's life. When she was young, she worked in a barber shop to get angry and sold her house to help her husband in business. The result was that her husband's business failed and committed suicide by jumping off the building.
For the sake of her daughter, she married a man who was alcoholic and domestic violence. Not only did she have to work and earn money, but she also had to take care of the housework. In the end, she was seriously ill and hospitalized without her daughter.
Wei Sheng clenched his fists and turned to leave.
In the next two days, many people came to look at the house, and my mother and my father who was visiting Chaonan City talked for a long time every night to discuss matters.
In addition to asking Li Qi to inquire about Hutaishan's racing situation, Wei Sheng spent almost all his time reviewing his homework.
What she wanted to review was the knowledge she had learned more than ten years ago, even if she didn't eat all of it, she would have forgotten about it.
Since it is difficult for her mother to lead a superior life in a short time, it is better to relieve her in another way.
My father went to Chaonan City as soon as he was on vacation on October 1st. He mainly took advantage of the holiday to investigate the local situation and contacted Chaonan's father for help.
He called back that night and said that he was going to be busy in Chaonan for two more days, meaning that he resigned after returning, and then went to Chaonan alone to take care of the previous affairs, rented a house to run the school, and picked up Wei Sheng's mother and daughter.
Of course, all of this will cost money. Wei Sheng can see that his parents are very anxious to sell the house. If he remembers a good deal, it will be done in these two days.
But unlike his previous life, Yang Lichun did not intend to take Wei Sheng to rent a temporary house this time, because his aunt Xu Huizhen offered to let their mother and daughter live in her house during this time.
There can be a fee left, Yang Lichun readily agreed.
Yang Lichun went out early that day to go through the house handover procedures with the buyer.
"Wei Sheng, you have a way for me to inquire!" Li Qi also knocked on Wei Sheng's door and said with joy.
Wei Sheng smiled, "Are you connected?"
"What you said, the separation theory is really useful. I was wondering where I could contact you about this matter. I didn't expect me to tell Li Linyi, hey! There is a door! Zishu, I told them that I went to the mountain to watch the game, and then Li Lin went to his brother, who found the bastard, and the **** contacted you if he asked a friend!" Li Qi proudly To say.
Wei Sheng smiled and said, "That is called the Six Degrees of Separation Theory, which was proposed by the Hungarian writer Frigyes Karinthy in 1929, which means..."
"It means you want to find anyone in the world, and there will be no more than six people in the middle!" Li Qi waved her hand to interrupt her, "You have said it all, what do you mean I can forget it? Good five yuan Where's the money?"
Originally, Wei Sheng asked her to ask her friends if anyone knew the drivers or organizers of Hutaishan who participated in the race. Li Qi found it incredible after hearing this. She was a middle school student who had never heard of such a thing, so how could she know this? people?
Then Wei Sheng told her about the theory and promised to give her five yuan, and then he dropped the dubious Li Qi and ignored it.
