Jiang Xiaoyuan felt an unprecedented defeat.
Taking the internship technician exam is actually a small matter, but for Jiang Xiaoyuan at this moment, it's a bit like buying a big item.
She first needs to invest in the down payment - that is, courage and determination. Courage is relatively easy, but when stimulated by others, it automatically swells up, while determination is relatively difficult. It is the joint result of Qilian's external debt, grandmother's phone call, and the group of young people in the store running on her.
At present, she has gathered both of these and still has to go through a long mortgage repayment period.
When she didn't start learning, Jiang Xiaoyuan had no concept of what hairdressers needed to learn. She thought that as long as she had perseverance, she would be able to conquer everything. As she gradually began to understand something, that is, when she stepped into the water with one foot, she despairingly realized that the water was too deep to swim through.
Retreat, Jiang Xiaoyuan couldn't go back anymore. Walking in, she was barely alive and stuck in the middle of the water. Looking around, there was an endless expanse of water, and she couldn't see the shore at all. There was no one kind enough to guide her. She had the intention to swing her arms and paddle vigorously, but she didn't know where to swim.
That night, Jiang Xiaoyuan had her first insomnia. She hated and despised the job of a hairdresser from the bottom of her heart. Therefore, when she realized that she couldn't learn this job, she finally had to face the fact that she was useless.
Her pride and arrogance, which have always supported her, are like a pair of castles in the air, full of loopholes that can collapse with just a little scrutiny.
This feeling is too painful, even more unbearable than the feeling of being sick alone in a foreign land, because for a mediocre person like Jiang Xiaoyuan who is not very determined, her confidence fluctuates with the ups and downs of external things. Long lasting prosperity and flattery from others will blow up her confidence like a bubble - even though she subconsciously knows it is hollow inside - until the bubble hits a needle and "smashes" with a snap.
At the moment when my confidence swelled and my heart shattered, it was truly a mixture of emotions. It was like taking a sip of a cup of Lao Bai Gan mixed with oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, scallions, mustard, and cool oil. It was sour, bitter, painful, and spicy, not to mention.
The next day, Jiang Xiaoyuan dragged her sound body and broken spirit to the store, struggling to survive.
She thought her heart was as lifeless as ashes, so she didn't blindly follow Chen Fangzhou to steal a teacher, nor did she bring her sketchbook. She washed the heads of several guests half heartedly, and then picked up a travel magazine that had been neglected for a long time. After reading it for a long time, she couldn't lift her spirits and didn't turn a page for more than half an hour.
Just as she was wasting her time so recklessly, Chen Fangzhou walked over,
Boss Chen rudely reached out and tugged at her, "Hey, don't be lazy here
Jiang Xiaoyuan gave him a bewildered look.
Chen Fangzhou seemed completely oblivious to her listless state and asked, "Do you know how to blow your hair
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "Who doesn't know how to blow their hair
Chen Fangzhou reached out and grabbed Jiang Xiaoyuan's shoulder, lifting her up from her seat and saying, "You're shameless, you're just idle. Come and see how I blow
Jiang Xiaoyuan was uninterested and followed Chen Fangzhou with her head down and chest in her arms. Just as a guest came out after washing their head, Chen Fangzhou gave Jiang Xiaoyuan a warning with his eyes, urging her to correct her attitude. Then he pushed back the technician who was about to take over the hair dryer and personally blew the guest's hair.
Chen Fangzhou remained silent and did not explain to her, just doing his own work.
Jiang Xiaoyuan was initially careless, but after a moment, she was surprised to find that Chen Fangzhou's hair blowing sequence, techniques, and the switching of hot and cold air were all carefully crafted. Blowing hair for guests could not be done simply by drying it, as the hair produced was stylish and stylish.
For ordinary technicians, whoever cuts their head will be easily praised, but those who have become senior technicians do not do this. They have a lot of work to do every day, and this non-technical task is usually pushed to intern technicians.
Jiang Xiaoyuan only followed Chen Fangzhou from the beginning and never paid attention to these basic skills. It was not until then that she realized that it was not because she was incapable, but because she had misjudged the goal and attempted to climb to the sky overnight.
Chen Fangzhou bid farewell to the customer with a smile, and then called out to Jiang Xiaoyuan like a dog, "Do you understand
Jiang Xiaoyuan instinctively nodded, Chen Boss's eyes widened, and she quickly shook her head.
Chen Fangzhou stuffed a broom into her hand and said, "You're on duty today. If there are no guests, go sweep the floor and pour water. If there's anything you don't understand, ask me before closing.
Jiang Xiaoyuan's rusty mind suddenly became clever, which was rare in a hundred years. She heard that Chen Fangzhou meant for her to steal teachers everywhere, so she hurriedly picked up a broom and happily went to duty.
Princess Jiang, who doesn't like to interact with people, suddenly switched to sex. She usually only does her own job and never chats with colleagues, let alone chats with customers. However, on this day, she seemed to have been possessed by a flea fairy. She washed two three heads in total and spent the rest of the time jumping up and down, running around the venue - she would pour water for customers, fetch magazines for them, and pack a bucket of popcorn and give it away everywhere.
Sweeping the floor is even more proactive, as she cleans the ground even cleaner than her face.
Every day, Jiang Xiaoyuan finishes work faster than anyone else. However, on this day, she voluntarily stayed behind to tidy up her bra, procrastinating until everyone else had left before she ran to Chen Fangzhou.
Chen Fangzhou asked again, "Do you know how to blow your hair
Jiang Xiaoyuan quickly shook her head humbly.
Chen Fangzhou shook his head and said, "You can't even blow your hair. Why do you always follow me? Do you know the difference between me and you
Jiang Xiaoyuan asked for help from him. Those who understand the current situation are heroes, so she quickly flattered him, saying, "The difference between clouds and mud, the difference between heaven and earth
Chen Fangzhou: "Don't be so literary, just keep it simple
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "... Rookie and master
Chen Fangzhou sighed and looked at her with the same eyes as he did at Rotten Wood. He said earnestly, "The difference between me and you is that I am the homeowner, and you can only live in the warehouse inside the store. You can't even afford to be a tenant. There are two classes in between, understand
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "..."
Chen Fangzhou: "Come here, let me tell you
He pulled over a plastic model and handed over the hair dryer that hadn't been unplugged yet: "First of all, you need to know why the hair dryer needs to be divided into cold and hot air. Do you know what the hot air dries and the cold air does... Okay, you have some common sense. Yes, the cold air is usually used for styling
Chen Fangzhou's lecture did not take a long time. Since Jiang Xiaoyuan realized that it was not her fault, she looked around the store all day and gained a lot of experience. She learned twice the result with half the effort.
She was excited to discover that she still had some cleverness, so she struggled to regain her shattered confidence bit by bit.
You can try it on your own head when you go back, or you can hold this model, "Chen Fangzhou said. Suddenly, he turned around and stretched out a finger, almost poking Jiang Xiaoyuan's chin." But there's one, after secretly practicing, you have to send it back intact. You're not allowed to damage it with scissors. Do you hear me
Jiang Xiaoyuan felt guilty when she thought she had ruined the plastic model.
Before she could fully explain, she heard Chen Fangzhou lowering his voice with a serious tone: "Let me tell you, these heads are actually a plum blossom formation, which controls the morale of the shop. After you go back, you must be sober every morning and not disrespect the head god. The Patriarch is watching over you from behind, be careful that he won't give you this bowl of food to eat
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "..."
The Patriarch, with this big white face without facial features, has really worked hard.
Jiang Xiaoyuan respectfully held the plastic model and gave a gentle farewell order to Mr. Chen, who was brainless, saying, "Mr. Chen, you go first. I'll turn off the lights and lock the door
Chen Fangzhou responded with a nod and tied cotton knee pads around his legs while casually saying to Jiang Xiaoyuan, "Your handwriting is so good and you have some culture. It's a pity to be here for the rest of your life. Have you ever thought about what you're going to do in the future
Jiang Xiaoyuan stroked the dog headed hand of the "Patriarch" for a moment and said, "I've thought about it, but I can't figure it out
Chen Fangzhou didn't laugh at her and nodded in agreement, "Normal. When I was your age, I couldn't think of it. Do good things first, and then take it slow - oh, by the way, where did you learn to draw? You draw really well
This sentence reminded Jiang Xiaoyuan of her childhood. In the first grade of elementary school, there was a time when the teacher was particularly willing to let the children stand up and talk about their dreams one by one. If the children didn't understand, they would say anything when they stood up. When it was her turn, Jiang Xiaoyuan said she wanted to become an artist.
She actually didn't understand what an "artist" was, she just happened to see a particularly beautiful woman in her mother's magazine. Little girls love beauty, so she went to ask her mother who she was. The answer she got from adults was "artist". From then on, in her young mind, "artist" was equal to "beauty".
Her parents found out about her career vision, and soon after, they hired a teacher to teach her art. She studied children's painting for a year, passed the entrance exam, and later learned sketching and coloring... Jiang Xiaoyuan's painting skills were laid down at that time, but unfortunately, she later discovered that even when she picked up her paintbrush, she did not immediately become a beautiful woman. Her pursuit of art faded, and she turned to pursuing food, drink, and entertainment.
It wasn't until many years later, when she was about to study abroad and choose a major, that her once small hobby subtly brushed off her presence, ultimately leading her to pursue a disappointing art major.
Looking back now, these seem like things from a previous life.
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "When I was a child, I wanted to be an artist
After hearing this, Chen Fangzhou nodded with emotion and said, "It's all the same. I was also similar when I was a child
Jiang Xiaoyuan was very surprised and said, "What? Mr. Chen, did you also want to be an artist when you were a child
Chen Fangzhou: "That's not true. When I was a child, I wanted to be a savior
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "..."
The second illness of the store manager cannot be cured.
Chen Fangzhou shamelessly confessed his foolish side, stood up as if nothing had happened, stretched his muscles and put on gloves, and said to Jiang Xiaoyuan, "The beginning of everything is difficult, especially they don't want to take you. Let me teach you a trick. If you don't know where to start, just pretend you don't know anything and start learning from the basics
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "I didn't know anything from the beginning, not even blowing my hair
I'm talking about the most basic, "Chen Fangzhou interrupted her." The most basic is not those techniques, but to show you how others adjust the gear of the hair dryer, how much distance they leave between the air outlet and the head, and how their hands move when they blow their hair. If you understand all of these, then you can see if others blow curly hair or texture. When you can't go fast, you have to slow down
Jiang Xiaoyuan: "But I'm afraid I won't make it to the assessment
I'm afraid I'll let you catch up? "Chen Fangzhou pushed the door open without looking back." It's really funny - you learn as much as you want. Are you planning to usurp my position as store manager? You've really turned against me
