"Brother Xi, when were you discharged from the hospital? I don't even know. By the way, how is your recovery now? Look at you, you even came here to thank me. You should be resting at home now! Are you being polite to me?
What? Come on! Come in and sit down! Come on in!"
Comrade Xu walked toward the door of the store to greet Xi Dongyang and Xi Xiaoqian, while saying polite words.
Although he usually talks less, it doesn't mean he can't speak.
In comparison, today's play Dongyang is a bit unable to speak.
Seeing Comrade Xu's enthusiasm, Xi Dongyang squeezed out a stiff smile, and with the support of his sister Xi Xiaoqian, he walked into the store and whispered: "Yes, you helped our family during the most difficult time."
We, we should come and say thank you."
His sister Xi Xiaoqian was much more articulate. At this time, she looked at Comrade Xu with a grateful face and said, "That's right! You not only saved my brother, but also our grandfather. When my brother was hospitalized,
It was the most difficult time for our family. At that time, my grandfather was sick again and had to be hospitalized. Our relatives and friends had long been afraid of us. No one was willing to lend money to our family. If you hadn't lent us the money,
,The consequences...I really don't dare to think about it, really, so..."
At this point, she suddenly stopped and bowed to Xu Tongdao seriously. For some reason, Xu Tongdao's mind suddenly flashed into a certain plot of a TV series he had watched before.
——The heroine was forced by her boss to bow and apologize to the customer. The heroine was also amazing. After bowing, she bowed again, and after the second bow, she was even ready to bow a third time.
At that time, the customer's face turned green, and he hurriedly stepped aside before the heroine took her third bow.
Naturally Xiaoqian would not do this in front of her. Seeing her bowing, Comrade Xu quickly stepped forward to help her, "Xiaoqian! Xiaoqian! Don't be like this! We are all friends. You just don't treat me as a friend!"
Brother, what do you think?"
In the latter sentence, he was asking about playing in Dongyang.
In fact, it was already too late, because Xi Xiaoqian had already finished her bow.
She still looked at Comrade Xu with gratitude in her eyes, "Xiao Xu, of course you are our friend, but we are truly grateful to you. Don't worry! We will definitely pay you back the money we borrowed from you in the future!"
Xi Dongyang hummed, "Yes! I will definitely pay it back!"
Comrade Xu shook his head repeatedly, "No hurry, no hurry! Since you treat me as a friend, then don't say thank you in the future! Come! Sit down! Sit down!"
When Fuxi Dongyang sat down, Comrade Xu turned around and said, "Lin Zi! Go get some tea! What are you doing standing still?"
Xu Tonglin agreed and immediately got up and left.
…
Next, Xi Dongyang and Xi Xiaoqian said some words of thanks. They had no intention of drinking the tea brought by Xu Tonglin.
What surprised Tongdao Xu and others was that the brother and sister had already finished saying their thanks, but they had no intention of getting up and leaving.
Comrade Xu asked them if they had had dinner. He invited them to have a working meal together, but the brothers and sisters declined.
Then what are they doing here if they haven't said goodbye yet?
Do you just want to sit here for a while?
Tongdao Xu felt that it didn't look like much.
Because he noticed that Xi Dongyang hesitated to speak several times, and also noticed that Xi Xiaoqian winked at Xi Dongyang several times.
But Xi Dongyang couldn't open his mouth several times.
Do you still want to borrow money from me?
Thinking of this possibility, Xu Tongdao frowned secretly.
It's not that he is stingy, but he feels that the brother and sister are a little self-conscious.
He, Comrade Xu, was not related to the brothers and sisters, but they had cooperated in setting up a stall for a period of time. When something happened to their family, he had lent them a total of 3,000 yuan twice.
Three thousand yuan is not a small sum in this day and age.
In the countryside, many families would not be able to earn so much money in a year.
As for the new store that he, Tongdao Xu, just opened recently, even if the brother and sister don't know that he, Tongdao Xu, borrowed money to open the store, they can always see his two stores now, right?
They should be able to guess that he doesn't have much money now.
In this case, they still come to borrow money... are you embarrassed?
With these thoughts running through his mind, Tongdao Xu still smiled on the surface and asked: "Brother Xi, Xiaoqian, do you have anything else you want me to help with? If so, please just tell me! You're welcome to me.
Already."
As long as they dare to speak, he will immediately refuse.
Comrade Xu has a kind heart and can help them once or twice, but he cannot lend them money again and again.
Nor did his money come from strong winds.
The purpose of his efforts to make money is not to become a bad person.
Xi Dongyang opened his mouth, his pale face began to turn red, but he still couldn't speak.
Seeing him like this, Comrade Xu smiled and was about to say something else.
Xi Xiaoqian couldn't help but speak, "Xiao Xu, it's like this, we, we just want to ask you, do you still need anyone here? I can be a waiter, wash dishes, or do odd jobs! You can pay me the salary according to your needs.
That’s it, look... is it okay?”
Tongdao Xu frowned and looked at her.
This request came as a surprise to him.
"You don't study anymore?" Xu Tongdao remembered that she was in high school.
Does she want to follow Xu's example of dropping out of school to earn money to support her family?
Xi Xiaoqian smiled bitterly, "My family is like this, I..."
"No! Xiaoqian! What did you say before we came? Who asked you to make your own decision?"
Xi Dongyang, who had been hesitant to speak just now, suddenly became angry. He glared at Xi Xiaoqian and interrupted Xi Xiaoqian's next words in a deep voice.
Then before everyone could react, he stood up holding on to the table, stretched out his hand, and pulled his sister Xi Xiaoqian behind him. He faced Comrade Xu's half-closed eyes and squeezed out a smile, "Xiao Xu, don't
Listen to Xiaoqian’s nonsense! She’s not here to come
The job is me! We discussed it at home. We came here today. In addition to saying thank you, we also want to ask you if there is still a shortage of people here. I, I want to come to work for you and pay you.
You’ll hit the mark just by looking at it, do you think you’ll hit it?”
"Brother, your body still needs to recuperate..."
Xi Xiaoqian, who was standing behind Xi Dongyang, couldn't help but make a sound.
But he was once again interrupted by the angry Xi Dongyang who turned around and said, "Shut up! My body is completely healed!"
After scolding his sister, Xi Dongyang turned around and faced Comrade Xu again. The anger on his face immediately disappeared, he squeezed out a smile again, lowered his voice and said to Comrade Xu: "Xiao Xu, my health is really well.
, I no longer have the capital to set up a stall anymore, you, are you still short of people in your store? Can you, can you let me come to your place to work? Anything is fine."
"elder brother……"
Xi Xiaoqian wanted to persuade her again, but she no longer dared to speak louder.
Xi Dongyang turned back to glare at her again. Seeing that she shut her mouth, he forced a smile and looked at Xu Tongdao again, waiting for Xu Tongdao's reply.
At this time, Tongdao Xu no longer had a false smile on his face.
He squinted at the brother and sister, as if he had seen the dispute between himself and his brother Xu Tonglu a few months ago.
