I opened my mouth and smiled: "This is not a matter of treating or not treating at all, Sister Pingping is my good friend, it is normal for me to invite her to dinner, and you don't need to pay." I mean, don't you like Sister Pingping? Why else do you pay so much attention to her? You can even remember what she likes to eat?"

I was just asking casually, but I didn't expect it to be like discovering a new continent.

Because I saw that Huazi's face actually turned red.

Is this really what I said?

Is Huazi really interested in Li Pingping?

He knows Li Pingping's profession.

Although I don't have any prejudice against Li Pingping's profession, from a man's point of view, almost no man will accept that his woman is doing this, right?

Although Huazi's career is also not glorious.

But this should be the general psychology of men, right?

"Do you really like Li Pingping? No kidding? you make it clear?" I asked again.

Huazi bowed his head weakly.

whispered: "Little Qiao, don't tell Pingping, she doesn't know." ”

I took a sip of water: "Why? Why do you like Sister Pingping? You know she is ......?"

I was only halfway through what I said, and I didn't go on.

But I believe that Huazi should understand what I mean.

"Hehe, I know what you mean, but how much better am I than Pingping? Where am I qualified to dislike her? And I also know that Pingping is actually a very kind, very simple woman, she is forced by life to do this. It's like when I was a kid and was forced to pick up coins from a pan...... What others see is Li Pingping's heavy makeup, bold and spicy, but what I see is that she is very hardworking, very capable, very good at caring about others, knife mouth, tofu heart, it is not easy to work hard in the city alone, and she still takes care of her sister......"

Sure enough, it was a lover's eye out of the way.

In Huazi's eyes, Li Pingping seems to be full of advantages.

I sighed.

I said to Huazi: "If you haven't confessed yet, you can bear with it, because being tempted by a woman does not mean that you really love this woman." Even if you really love this woman, it doesn't mean that you can marry her and be responsible for her. Especially a woman like Sister Pingping is extremely sensitive, you don't want to give her the illusion of love, and then hurt her hard, she can't stand it. You'd hurt her. ”

I'm serious about what I say.

I can't put it into words, though.

I can't tell Huazi that Niuniu is not Li Pingping's sister, but her daughter.

I can't tell Huazi either, in fact, Li Pingping has been in love before, and she has been hurt by love.

So it's hard for her to fall in love with someone easily anymore.

And once she fell in love, she couldn't help but be hurt again.

That would really ruin Li Pingping.

Besides, Li Pingping still has a child, so she can't help but toss.

Maybe I'm biased.

I don't think Huazi is a person who can be relied on, a person who can bring happiness to Li Pingping.

He can be a friend, but he is not a good husband or father.

So it's best that his confession only exists in his heart, don't say it, and bring any trouble to Li Pingping.

As for Li Pingping?

Maybe she will leave the city with her children in a few years and go to a completely unfamiliar place before she can start a new life.

......

Hanako didn't know what was going on in my heart.

But he nodded: "You let me confess, I don't dare, Pingping is so spicy, I'm afraid that I will confess, in exchange for her scolding." ”

As he was talking, Li Pingping came.

On the jump.

After sitting down and saying hello to the two of us, it was time to feast.

Because I ate too fast, I choked a little.

Huazi was on the side, and hurriedly brought water to Li Pingping very intimately.

"Thank you. ”

Li Pingping gulped down the water, and then stuffed another piece of ribs into her mouth.

The oil was hanging on his lips.

Li Pingping wiped her mouth with her hand.

Seeing Li Pingping's appearance, I am very sure.

Li Pingping should have no meaning for Huazi in terms of men and women.

Because a woman will definitely not be so disrespectful of image in front of her sweetheart.

For example, I actually love to eat melon seeds, and I like to spit melon seed skins all over the ground.

But if Wen Shaonian was in front of me, I would definitely not do this.

Such a discovery made Huazi disappointed, but it made me feel gratified.

......

"Where did Rong Rong travel, did she spend a lot of money?" I asked.

"Together with her classmates, she said that she was going to several cities, and it would take half a month to come and go, and each person was 3,500. In addition, I gave her some more points for her to spend on the road. Li Pingping replied.

I endured it, but I still couldn't hold back.

"Sister Pingping, you should talk about Rong Rong, she is not a child of a rich family, don't spend money lavishly, and don't be too vain, it's not easy for you to make money, you can't always be so willful. ”

I'm telling the truth.

Although I haven't met Li Rongrong's real person, I've heard the sisters call several times.

Now Li Rongrong is attending university in the provincial capital.

I don't know if my academic performance is good or not.

But the quality of life, that's absolutely good.

Food and clothing are very particular, not famous brands are not used.

From Li Pingping's mobile phone, I saw Li Rongrong's circle of friends.

There are all kinds of selfies, all kinds of show-offs, whether it's drinking coffee at Starbucks, playing tennis on the tennis court, or going to various high-end clubs to check in.

A living petty bourgeois girl.

I don't know, I thought her family was not very rich, but she had a very good background.

But to be fair, Li Rongrong is far less good-looking than Li Pingping, and the two sisters don't look alike.

So Li Rongrong deliberately dressed up and dressed herself with various brand-name cosmetics, but she didn't have Li Pingping's perfunctory heavy makeup.

It can be said that Li Rongrong's quality of life completely exceeds the material conditions of the Li family.

Because the Li family still owes a lot of foreign debts, and her mother's health is also very bad.

Li Rongrong's tuition and living expenses are all provided by Li Pingping.

How did Li Pingping earn her money?

That was bought with sweat, tears, and dignity.

That's real hard-earned money.

Li Rongrong took the money to enjoy such a luxurious and comfortable life, which was simply too unfair to Li Pingping.

I'm not worth it for Li Pingping.

Li Pingping smiled: "Rong Rong is still young, it is normal for girls to be arrogant, and when they graduate from college in the future and find a job by themselves, it will be good to know that it is not easy to make money." ”

She had a smile on her face when she spoke, obviously doting on this sister.

I don't feel that my hard-earned money has been spent by my sister like this, and there is no dissatisfaction and grievance.

What a good sister.

I don't have a sister, but I'm pretty sure I want to have a sister like Li Pingping too.

And not the brother of the beast.

"Hey, they say that the children of the poor are in charge of the family early, but your sister is spoiled by you too much, and she doesn't know the difficulties of society at all, so it is not necessarily a good thing for her. I commented.

Li Pingping's family, because his father died after failing in business, so the family fell into the middle.

This huge change, the burden of the family, basically fell on Li Pingping.

Li Pingping gave up the opportunity to go to college and went to the city to work, and after experiencing unforgettable encounters, she can only do this kind of work now.

And Li Rongrong doesn't seem to be affected.

Going to college, learning the lifestyle of the people in the city, carefree.

"Yes, Rong Rong has been squeamish since she was a child, and my mother and I have spoiled her...... Also, she didn't know what I was doing now, she always thought I was working in a beauty salon. If you see Rong Rong in the future, you have to help me keep it secret, don't say it. "Li Pingping told me and Huazi.

As an older sister, she definitely doesn't want her sister to know that she is doing such an unbearable job.

Huazi and I nodded understandingly.

There are some words, the more you are to your relatives, the more you can't speak.

No matter how hard it is, you have to pretend to be relaxed in the face of your loved ones.

......

A few of us were talking.

There was a commotion outside the streets.

Soon a crowd of onlookers gathered.

Because our eating place is leaning against the window, if you listen carefully, you can also hear the sound outside.

What's more, the sound outside is still very loud.

I heard a female voice crying: "Oh, my God! How can this make people live! I can't even give us poor people a way to live! Everyone will give me a comment! Wow, wow, wow!"

I couldn't see anyone, and I could hear who it was.

It was the mother who was crying.

What are you crying about?

Cry and lose money.

I thought right, so I listened to my mother continue to cry: "Oh, we have no money, just a few hundred yuan, and we have been stolen by someone who doesn't know which! We don't even have the money to go home! Look at how pitiful we are, our old couple is helpless, and our son is still a fool, and now it is really called the heavens and the earth and the earth are not spiritual! This world really does not allow honest people to live! Who can help us! Please, everyone! We are all honest people, and we should not be treated like this!"

The mother's cry attracted more and more people.

I saw hundreds of people watching.

Even many diners in the restaurant went out to watch the excitement.

"Oh, is this a loss of money? Who did it, it's too lacking in morality. Li Pingping commented.

Then he looked at Huazi on the side: "Which of your peers did it again? You should really teach them, if you have the ability to steal those big money, don't always have trouble with the countrymen." A few hundred dollars is nothing to you, but it is the lifeblood of rural people. ”

Huazi said: "It's not my peers, it's me who did it." ”

Li Pingping looked surprised and unhappy: "Huazi, what about your rules, why have you forgotten?"

"Sister Pingping, this has nothing to do with Huazi, I asked Huazi to do it, because it was my parents who lost money outside. I explained.

Of course, Li Pingping knows my background.

Because I used to tell her.

So as soon as I heard my introduction, I immediately understood why I did it.

She slapped the table heavily: "Huazi, well done! It turns out that the strange parents outside are happy with the patriarchal pair, who will clean up if they don't clean up?"

Huazi was so praised by her sweetheart that she seemed very excited.

Although he didn't drink, his face was red.

"Let's go, let's go out and see the excitement. Li Pingping greeted me and Huazi.

We followed Li Pingping out of the hotel and came to the outside of the crowd.

Through the crowd, I saw what was inside.

The father squatted on the ground, smoking a cigarette.

The elder brother was lying on the ground, but he was already asleep, and his saliva was flowing for a long time.

The mother sat on the ground, weeping and wiping away tears.

is crying about what happened to him.

The onlookers were whispering.

Obviously, in the eyes of these people now, fathers, mothers, and older brothers are all weak people.

belongs to the old, weak, sick and disabled, and they are all objects that should be pitied and sympathized.

In particular, the little money on his body was stolen, and he had no money to buy a ticket when he went home.

It makes people feel that their experience is bumpy.

"Who did it? It's too much!"

"These damn thieves!"

"Did you report it? Let the patrol come and investigate. ”

"It's useless to look for patrols, do you know how many people are stolen from this bus station every day? If the number is not very large, the patrol is just a registration and the matter is over. ”

"This aunt is crying so much that my heart is broken, and I want to help her. ”

"Yes, my parents are about the same age, and seeing them crying like this reminds me of my parents. ”

"Auntie, don't cry, give you 100. ”

"I'm out of 50. ”

"I don't have cash, can I scan the QR code?"

"Just kidding, this looks like it's from the countryside, where can there be that thing?"

"Aunt and Uncle have you eaten, I have bread and water here. ”

Many passers-by reached out separately.

Some give money, some give things.

Others took out their phones and called the newspaper, hoping to get media attention.

I saw that my mother had more money in her hand.

In just a few minutes, there were four or five hundred dollars.

Therefore, although the world is really cold, there is still no shortage of enthusiastic people.

It's just that today, the kindness of these zealous people is used in the wrong place.

The people they want to help, although they are vulnerable, are not good people.

Although in people's general consciousness, they feel that the elderly are kind and respectable.

But there are indeed some old people who are disrespectful to the old, although they are old, they still do a lot of things that lack morality.

For example, touching porcelain on the road.

For example, there are also peeks at the bottom of a girl's skirt on the subway.

For example, some people sit on the lap of a woman who refuses to give up their seat.

So in the newspaper, I read a very philosophical sentence.

It's not that the old man has become bad, but that the bad man has become old.

......

My hands were shaking.

Every time these onlookers put a dollar in my mother's hand, it was like a slap in the face.

Makes me angry.

Hateful.

It's just that I understand that I can't blame these well-meaning passers-by.

Because they didn't do anything wrong.

They don't know what I've been through, what my relatives have done to me.

But I can't just watch my father and mother get this money from these people.

In that case, what was my previous plan?

What is the hardship I have endured and the grievances I have suffered?

I want to take revenge, how to calm down!

At the same time, I am also sure that if these passers-by find out what their parents did, they will regret it.

So I wanted to squeeze through the crowd and rush in.

Tell all the people, do you know who they are?

Do you know what's going on with them?

Let me tell you!

Tell you, the true face of this old man who is ignorant, shameless, despicable, and feudal!

Tell you how ruthless they are to their daughters!

I tell you that they have now fallen into such a field, and they have brought their own blame upon themselves.

Just then, a warm hand grabbed me and calmed me down.

I calmed down.

I know I can't rush out at this point.

As soon as my father and mother saw that I was here, they would haunt me.

Let me be responsible for them, be responsible for my stupid brother, or go find a door-to-door son-in-law.

Will count every penny of me.

They even moved into my rental house and made me sleep on the streets.

Of course I won't give in, of course I won't agree, I'll fight.

But I also knew that was going to be a big, big problem.

It takes up my time and energy.

I can't get enough of it.

How else do I make money?

How else can I live my life?

So I can't get out of it!

But can't you stand out and watch your mother win sympathy with tears?

I turned my head and saw that it was Li Pingping who was holding my hand.

Li Pingping nodded at me and showed a reassuring smile.

"Don't be impulsive, let my sister help you. She whispered to me.

Then Li Pingping squeezed through the crowd and walked in.

Li Pingping came to her mother.

Suddenly said excitedly, "Aunt Qiao, why are you?"

Mother didn't expect that there would be people here who knew her.

I was a little stunned.

She looked at Li Pingping: "Girl, are you?"

Li Pingping said: "Aunt Qiao, don't you remember me? Now that you're working in a provincial town, what's going on with you? Why is there such a big fuss?"

Li Pingping was certainly not my primary school classmate.

But my mother obviously couldn't remember which of my elementary school classmates I was.

But since it's my classmate, it's counted as a fellow countryman.

Now that they are downtrodden in the provincial capital, they are naturally happy to meet acquaintances.

Hope for help and benefits.

So her mother took Li Pingping's hand, wiped her tears and said, "Hey, our money was stolen, and now we can't even go back home, and your brother is injured again, our family is really difficult." By the way, you and Huanxi are elementary school classmates, do you know where she is now? There is such a big thing in the family, this girl doesn't care, we really raised her for nothing!"

Li Pingping made a very distressed look: "Auntie, you said that you were in trouble in the provincial capital, why didn't you come to me? Huanxi and I have been friends since childhood, and we have the best relationship." As for Huanxi, I can't get in touch with her now, I don't know where she is. ”

The mother thought that Li Pingping was really helping, so she looked forward to it: "You just don't have any money! Your eldest brother was hospitalized before, and he owes tens of thousands of yuan, and we still can't go up, and the hospital asks us to sell the land in our house to pay it back. You said that you are working in the provincial capital now, and you should earn a lot, right? Can you lend your aunt some money? Don't worry, Huanxi will pay you back in the future, you go to her. ”

Li Pingping asked: "I have money in my hand, how much do you owe?"

At this time, my father spoke: "20,000 ......"

Before my father finished speaking, my mother had already snatched the words: "How can 20,000 yuan be enough? I have to live when I go back, how can I get 50,000 yuan." ”

I sneered outside.

Mother, have you finally found a fat sheep, so you still want to make a fortune?

20,000 is not satisfied.

I actually want 50,000.

It's so beautiful to think about!

Those onlookers around saw that they had met acquaintances.

So many of them showed expressions of relief.

"It's good to have met friends. ”

"Someone is helping now. ”

"This girl is good, benevolent!"
