Comrade Xu was still staring at the back of Li Xiaoshan who was getting further away. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "Let's go see him first!"
Zheng Qing followed his gaze and was surprised, "Look at him? Li Xiaoshan?"
"Um."
"Why are you looking at him? Haven't you seen enough of the excitement just now? Are you too curious? Haha."
Zheng Qing laughed.
Comrade Xu also laughed, "No! Let's see if he is worth inviting. Let's go! Follow him first and see."
Before he finished speaking, Comrade Xu had already strode forward and followed Li Xiaoshan at a distance, not in a hurry to catch up.
Zheng Qing was stunned, blinked, and looked a little confused, and quickly raised his heels.
"You want to dig him up to our place?"
After catching up with Xu Tongdao, Zheng Qing asked curiously.
Comrade Xu smiled and said, "Wrong! We can't say 'dig' him. He is already unemployed. At most, we can only hire him. As for whether to hire him, we still have to see how his character and skills are."
"This? I understand that you want to understand his craftsmanship and understand his character? You also saw the reason why this guy was fired just now. He is a victim! The boss's brother-in-law played with his girlfriend,
Do you still doubt his character?"
"What is the truth of the matter? We only took a look at the surface. On the surface, he is indeed the victim, but... have you ever thought about another possibility?"
"What's the possibility?"
Zheng Qing was a little confused and her curiosity was aroused.
Xu Tongdao: "I'm just saying, what if his girlfriend and the boss's brother-in-law... were hooking up and committing adultery? You also saw the shop owner's brother-in-law just now. Although he was oily and powdery, he looked unreliable.
But you can’t deny that such men are often very popular with young girls, and they are much more handsome than Li Xiaoshan in appearance. Don’t you deny this?”
Zheng Qing frowned when he heard this, "No way? If this is really the case, then Li Xiaoshan would be too miserable. Not only did the boss's brother-in-law play with his girlfriend... but also his girlfriend took the initiative to cuckold him?
"
Comrade Xu shook his head slightly, "This is just a possibility. As for what the truth is, neither of us knows, so don't speculate. I have no curiosity about the truth."
"Then you still want to know about Li Xiaoshan's character? Aren't you contradictory?" Zheng Qing felt that his brain was a bit out of use.
Comrade Xu said in a calm voice: "What's the contradiction? I just want to confirm what this person's temper is like, what his personality is like, and whether he is suitable for entrusting him with important tasks. If I must say curiosity, then I'm just curious about whether his girlfriend took the initiative.
She wants to leave him, and the reason why she wants to leave him is because she can't stand his personality, or... she simply feels that being with the boss's brother-in-law has a better future than being a head chef with him."
Zheng Qing frowned and thought for a while, scratched his head, glanced at Comrade Xu strangely, and laughed, "You are too thoughtful!"
Comrade Xu smiled and did not answer.
Li Xiaoshan in front was still not out of their sight.
Li Xiaoshan's pace was very fast, and he hurried forward with his head down. From his pace, you could see his bad mood at this time.
Tongdao Xu and the others had already followed him across the street, but still had no intention of catching up. They still stayed about twenty meters behind Li Xiaoshan.
Just walking and following Li Xiaoshan until he reached a small park with a small lake in the center.
After Li Xiaoshan walked into the park, his steps slowed down significantly and his shoulders slumped. He looked like a deflated ball. He walked limply to the steps by the lake, sat down, lowered his head and took something out of his trouser pocket.
Cigarettes and lighters, I lit a cigarette with a dull head, then slowly raised my head, staring blankly at a few waterbirds cruising on the lake.
From time to time, I would raise my eyes and look at the distant sky. I looked very lonely and lost.
Comrade Xu and Zheng Qing stood more than 20 meters away and watched for a while. Zheng Qing asked in a low voice: "Why don't we go over and have a chat with him?"
Comrade Xu was silent for a few seconds, shook his head slightly, "No hurry!"
As he said that, Comrade Xu glanced around and saw a bench in front of the bushes not far away, so he walked over and said, "Let's go over there and sit for a while."
Zheng Qing looked at him and laughed dumbly. He didn't understand what Xu Tongdao was thinking, but since Xu Tongdao said there was no rush, he didn't have any objection. Anyway, he came to Fog City this time just to accompany him, so he
He also slowed down his steps and walked over.
When he sat down on the bench, Xu Tongdao had already taken out his cigarette case and handed him a cigarette.
Okay! From this moment on, Li Xiaoshan was smoking by the lake, and Tongdao Xu and Zheng Qing were smoking more than ten meters away from Li Xiaoshan.
Li Xiaoshan was looking at the sky in a daze, while Xu Tongdao and Zheng Qing were looking at Li Xiaoshan.
It’s like what is written in a modern poem: People on the bridge are looking at the scenery, and people looking at the scenery are looking at you.
"When are we going to meet him?"
When the cigarette was almost finished, Zheng Qing couldn't help but ask Comrade Xu.
Tongdao Xu took a puff of cigarette and said calmly: "Just wait a few more hours!"
"How many hours?"
Zheng Qing was shocked, "Are we just going to look at him like this for a few hours? Isn't this too boring? Just look at him in a daze?"
Tongxu said: "He shouldn't be in a daze for a few hours."
"That's boring, right? Why do we have to wait for hours?"
Tongdao Xu puffed on his cigarette again, his tone still calm, "A person's character can generally be seen clearly in two different states."
Zheng Qing blinked, and her curiosity was aroused again, "Which two kinds?"
"When the spring breeze is proud, and when life is frustrated! When you are proud, you can see whether he is arrogant. When he is frustrated, you can see whether he is angry and frustrated, whether his mentality has collapsed, and if he collapses, then all the ugly things he will do when he collapses..."
Comrade Xu spoke very lightly.
Zheng Qing listened thoughtfully.
Then, I heard Comrade Xu say: "He has lost his job now, and he seems to have been cuckolded. He is definitely at a low point in his life. I want to see what he looks like in the next few hours. There is nothing better than the next few hours."
After a few hours, I can understand his character better."
Zheng Qing nodded slightly and sighed softly: "Xiaodao, you said you just graduated from junior high school and are not even 20 years old this year. How come you know so much? These should be all about human nature, right? You know it too
?”
Xu Tongdao laughed at himself.
Only he himself knows that he is only 19 years old on the surface, but in fact, he has lived almost two 19 years.
No matter how stupid a person is, after living for more than thirty years, he will have some understanding of life and human nature.
