When Liang Shuang got up early the next morning, her hands were swollen and the pain was unbearable.
She couldn't stand it anymore, so she called the factory and asked for two days off.
My colleague was surprised: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay. I was injured a little and needed a few stitches. The wound hurts a lot."
The colleague asked again what happened.
Liang Shuang only said that he was not careful.
"The salary has been paid, and business is slow in the spring, so there is nothing to do. You should take good care of yourself."
said a colleague.
Liang Shuang thanked him.
She rested at home in the morning, wrote a letter at her desk, and sent it to Xi Changan.
She thanked him in the letter.
Giving is as important as receiving.
If the person Liang Shuang once cared about was now poor and she was rich, she would also want to help.
It is very unbearable to see friends having a hard time.
"This is not to take advantage of him."
Liang Shuang told himself again and again.
It is only polite to accept his kindness and not let him down.
She will remember, be grateful and repay.
Liang Shuang said in the letter that her boss was treating her unfairly. Her ability was no worse than that of her male colleagues, but she received less salary. This was because her boss was discriminating against her.
She has no financial resources and needs to support her family, so she has no choice but to accept the exploitation of her boss.
"With your money, we won't have to worry about making ends meet for a year.
If there is a good opportunity, I will change to another factory.
Now I also have some connections, and my friends will introduce me there when they change jobs."
she wrote again.
She also said, "Maybe in a few days when the opportunity is right, I will talk to my boss and strive for a salary equal to that of my colleagues.
If he doesn't agree, I will give up my fantasy and look for a new factory as soon as possible."
At the end of the letter, she thanked her again and said: "The money won't be repaid in a short time, but I will remember it.
If you entrust me with something in the future, just ask, and I will do my best to repay you."
As for feelings...
Liang Shuang finished writing the letter, took her little daughter out for a walk, and mailed the letter on the way.
Maybe Xi Changan will receive this letter the day after tomorrow.
In the afternoon, Liang Shuang went to the bank again, changed the gold bars into cash, deposited half into the account, and brought the other half back and put it under the bed.
A floor tile at the foot of her bed was loose, so she dug a small hole in it to accommodate a small box.
Dayang was put in, the floor tiles were re-covered, and the foot of the bed was used to hold it down, without anyone noticing.
After working hard, Liang Shuang finally took two days of rest and gave himself a holiday, which made him feel much better.
Xi Changan did not go again, fearing that she would be angry about the gold bars.
Unexpectedly, I received such a letter.
The corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he was in a good mood.
On the eve of Xi Zun's wedding, Xi Changan went to the new house to report some official business to his master.
The weather is clear and sunny, with a bit of early spring warmth.
Yun Qiao endorsed books under the eaves, Xi Lanting sunbathed in a wicker chair, and a cat and a leopard lay at his feet.
When Xi Changan came in, Yun Qiao just finished carrying it, stretched out, and said with a smile: "Brother Changan, are you happy?
You seem to be in a good mood."
That kind of thin joy was lingering around him.
"No, ma'am."
Xi Changan smiled and said, "Maybe it's spring, the air is good, and my mood is very good."
Yun Qiao: "...you are coaxing the child.
Are you in love?"
Xi Changan: "..."
Later, Xi Changan simply told Yun Qiao about Liang Shuang's letter.
"It's been the first time since she's been back that I can feel it. I've pried open the shell of the stone."
Xi Changan said, "This is the first time she has accepted my kindness and expressed her gratitude."
Rather than being forced into helplessness.
She said, thank him.
If a person can accept the kindness of others, it means that she is slowly opening her heart.
Sooner or later she will accept him again, this is a beginning.
Like a spring breeze blowing through the branches of a tree overnight.
Although there is no change in appearance, the young leaves are growing quietly.
