Helping his brother move his luggage to his new home and lay out the sheets, Xu Tongdao invited Xu Tonglu to come out for dinner. Although he, Xu Tonglin, and Ge Lianghua had already eaten first, he left some food for Xu Tonglu.
Sitting in the main room of his new home to eat, Xu Tonglu seemed a little silent.
In Xu Tongdao's opinion, Xu Tonglu talks less and less, and his personality becomes more and more similar to that of the original time and space.
This made him a little worried.
But Xu Tonglu's personality changed, and he didn't know what to do.
I can only try my best to find topics to talk to him.
"Linzi and Rooster's things have been moved here, but in a few days, Rooster will go to the city to help me, but cousin Liangcai will also move here tonight, so if you have anything to do, you can tell them
!If that doesn’t work, just page me.”
"Oh, I got it."
Xu Tonglu’s response was so concise.
Tongdao Xu was silent and then found another topic, "You went home last week, right? How are mom and Yuzhu? Nothing happened at home, right?"
Xu Tonglu shook his head, "Nothing happened, it's fine."
After a pause, Xu Tonglu looked up and said, "Brother, did you say hello to Xu Changsheng and ask him to take care of our family?"
Comrade Xu did not deny it, "Well, we were both not at home. I was a little worried, so I just said a few words to him. Who told you?"
"Mom said it, Yuzhu said it too."
"What did they say?"
"Mom said that Xu Changsheng went to the house every now and then to help carry water and chop firewood. Yuzhu said that Xu Changsheng came to her twice and asked if anyone was bullying her."
Comrade Xu smiled and nodded.
"By the way, how was your freshman class in high school? Was it difficult?"
"Just like that! You don't have to worry about this." Xu Tonglu said, lowering his head and taking the rice into his mouth.
Tongdao Xu looked at his taciturn look, with a hint of worry in his eyes, "Have you made any friends since you have been in No. 1 Middle School for so long?"
Xu Tonglu did not raise his head this time and said casually: "I don't need friends!"
"That girl today is your classmate, right? Does she like you?"
Comrade Xu changed the question.
Xu Tonglu still didn't look up, "Yes! But I don't have feelings for her."
Tongdao Xu frowned and was silent for a while before speaking again: "Xiaolu, studying is very important, but it is not the only important thing. I hope you get good grades, but I don't want you to just get good grades. How much should you pay?"
A friend’s.”
Xu Tonglu stopped his chopsticks, but still did not raise his head. After a few seconds, he said: "I will make friends in the future, but now... I don't want to make friends."
Comrade Xu was a little upset.
Subconsciously, he took out the cigarette case, lit one, took two puffs, frowned and said, "Xiaolu! If you continue like this, you will become a nerd. And do you think you will have a future as a nerd?"
Xu Tonglu was silent for a few more seconds. He raised his head silently, looked at Xu Tongdao, frowned and asked, "What kind of future do you want me to have?"
Seeing his reaction, Xu Tongdao frowned even more tightly, "The future is yours, you shouldn't ask me this question! You should be responsible for your own future! Responsible for your life! Not for me,
Do you get me?"
Xu Tonglu looked at Xu Tongdao in silence.
After ten seconds, he lowered his head to eat again.
After taking a few mouthfuls, he suddenly stopped and whispered: "Brother, I don't dare to make friends anymore, you know? Every time I see my classmates, no matter whether they are male or female, no matter what their attitude is towards me,
Whatever he said to me, the first thing I thought of was how they would laugh at me if one day they found out about our dad..."
Xu Tongdao: "..."
This time, Comrade Xu was silent for a little long.
Because he understands Xu Tonglu's mentality, because at his age in the original time and space, he has also experienced Xu Tonglu's mentality.
Comrade Xu can no longer worry about these things now.
He can be open-minded and face things calmly.
But Xu Tonglu... is only 17 years old after all. No matter how good his academic performance is, he is definitely not fully mature mentally.
It's normal for him to feel inferior because of these things.
Can……
Tongdao Xu didn't want him to continue to feel inferior like this.
After a long silence, Comrade Xu spoke again: "Xiaolu! Actually, I don't want to tell you any big truths, but I hope you understand that there are hundreds of millions of people in this world! But at most, everyone can only make friends with you in this life.
We have a few real friends, so for us, most people in our lives, whether they are classmates or colleagues, are not that important. You don’t need to care too much about what others think of you, because it doesn’t matter!”
After a pause, Comrade Xu added: "To make friends, you don't need to be good friends with everyone. Moreover, we not only need real friends in our lives, but sometimes we also need some superficial friends. Even if
You couldn't make a single true friend in the entire three years of high school... I, I also hope that you can at least learn how to have a good relationship with others! Don't be lonely! Because a lonely life is difficult to be wonderful!"
Xu Tonglu listened quietly.
After listening for a while, he nodded slightly and showed a faint smile, "Brother, I understand."
Xu Tongdao didn't know if he really listened.
But for the time being, he can only advise so much.
Let’s see the effect in the future!
…
That night, he took a taxi back to the city.
He was still worried about the new Internet cafe.
Three days later, he came to Ximen Road Internet Cafe No. 1 again. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a woman sitting at the cashier. Zheng Qing was sitting next to the woman with her legs crossed and smoking.
female?
Comrade Xu was stunned.
This woman is sitting at the cashier. She should be Zheng Qing's new cashier these days.
This was beyond his expectation. He originally thought that Zheng Qing would hire a man to be a cashier. After all, men are easy to deal with. If someone makes trouble in an Internet cafe, a male cashier is better.
What's more, his Internet cafe usually has someone staying overnight, so the cashier here has to sleep here at night. It's definitely not as convenient for a female cashier as a male cashier.
Therefore, Comrade Xu was surprised when Zheng Qing hired a female cashier.
He subconsciously looked at the woman more and more. He estimated that she was under thirty years old and had a neat ponytail. However, her ponytail was tied very high and she had no bangs. Her entire forehead was exposed.
With her long face, at first glance, she can be regarded as a 7-point beauty.
Tongdao Xu frowned and walked over. Zheng Qing saw him, smiled, stood up and walked out of the cashier, raising his chin, "Why are you here again today? Last time you didn't come for half a month.
"
Tongdao Xu gestured to the woman at the cashier with his eyes, "The new cashier?"
Zheng Qing nodded, and then said to the woman who was looking at Comrade Xu: "Sister Hou! Let me introduce to you, this is our boss! His surname is Xu!"
The woman was startled and quickly stood up and nodded, "Hello, boss! My name is Hou Ying!"
