Seeing that Jiang Yue had almost eaten, Zhang Hong poured him another glass of watermelon juice, and the two chatted while drinking drinks.

"Jiang Yue, do you treat me as a friend?"

"Manager Zhang, why do you ask like this? You are so good to me, I not only regard you as a friend, but also treat you as a relative. ”

Zhang Hong heard Jiang Yue say this, and his heart warmed. Although she has been in contact with Jiang Yue for a short time, she knows that Jiang Yue is not the kind of person who flatters.

"Since you regard me as a friend, let's talk frankly, I'd like to know something. ”

"What do you want to know? Ask, whatever you can tell you. ”

"Do you like money?"

"I like it, but a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. I only like the money I earn according to my ability, and I don't covet other people's money. Jiang Yue said very seriously.

"Then you are very short of money?" Zhang Hong then asked again.

"Hmm. I'm short on money. My dad is not in good health and needs a few hundred dollars a month for medicine. My brother is in college and is in his sophomore year, so I have to save for his tuition and living expenses......"

"I have no relatives in this city, so I have to work my own. It also costs money to rent a house, three meals a day, and I don't earn much, so I can't take care of my dad and brother without saving. ”

Jiang Yue was very honest and told Zhang Hong the actual situation. He doesn't think it's ugly, it's an attitude of his own to life.

"I know, because I don't know your situation, I messed up your part-time job, I'm sorry. ”

Zhang Hong hurriedly apologized to Jiang Yue, she now understood why Jiang Yue would work desperately.

"Do you have a plan for your life?"

"Everyone envisions their own future and designs a beautiful blueprint. But times are changing so fast these days. Maybe when you take a nap, you will be surpassed by others and forgotten by the times. Jiang Yue said very seriously.

"I want to hear your planning, not your feelings. Zhang Hong pursed her lips and smiled.

"No one wants to send people under the fence, everyone wants to get ahead. I'm also a layman, and I'm not immune to clichés. My current plan is simple, I have a stable job so that I and my family can have enough food and clothing. At the same time, you can accumulate more work experience, enrich your life experience, and then set life goals. After all, I'm still young, I'm not in a hurry now, I have the drive, I have passion, and there are many opportunities. ”

"Hmm. You're down-to-earth, not like some young people who are too ambitious. It's a fast-paced life, and there are plenty of opportunities. But opportunities also need strength to support, otherwise opportunities become a trap. Zhang Hong recognized Jiang Yue's idea, and she admired Jiang Yue more and more.

"I graduated from college at the age of 22 and it took me three years to go from being an intern to where I am today. I consider myself lucky to have landed my current job as an assistant manager in the HR department. At the same time, I feel that my work experience is still lacking, I am not mature enough, and I need to continue to study hard. ”

"You're much better than me, at least you're working steadily now, and I'm still on probation after all. Jiang Yue smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Okay, let's not talk about this topic and ask you a question about your private life. ”

"If you ask, as long as it is convenient to answer, it will definitely answer you. ”

"Do you have a girlfriend?" Zhang Hong asked Jiang Yue again.

"Nope. Jiang Yue replied very simply, because in fact he just didn't.

"Then have you ever been in love?" Zhang Hong then asked.

"I can't tell if it's a relationship. Jiang Yue thought for a moment and replied.

"You don't know if you're in love, have you ever been in love, can you not know?" Zhang Hong couldn't help but sneer, Jiang Yue replied too cutely.

"I had a good relationship with a female classmate in high school, and I lost contact with her when I went to college. We met again by chance in my sophomore year, and we've been in touch again ever since. ”

"And then?"

"Then I got closer to her, texting and calling almost every day. If you don't contact for a day, you will feel lost. ”

"Huh. This is the charm of love, to describe it in one sentence: not seeing each other for a day is like three autumns. You don't hear from each other for a day, it's like a year. Zhang Hong quipped.

"Hmm. Later, her parents found out that she was dating me and stopped her. Because of my family's poor conditions, their family did not agree to her being with me, and then she rarely replied to my messages, and then she stopped contacting me at all. ”

"Then she is your first love. ”

"I don't know, because we haven't seen each other in that time. said that I was in love, I haven't seen her before, and I haven't pulled her hand, is this a relationship?"

"Giggle...... Mom, you're laughing at me. Your mind is too unhealthy, you have to hold hands, hug, and kiss in order to be considered in love?"

Zhang Hong smiled very unimaged, if it weren't for the fact that she was trying to control herself in public, maybe she would have laughed like her.

"If this is also a relationship, then I am not a loss. Jiang Yue felt that she was very aggrieved in this way.

"What do you want? You don't want to get people pregnant, do you? You're a hooligan. Zhang Hong hurriedly covered his mouth after speaking, which was a bit rude.

"Don't say it's really like this, my college friend summoned a son, and today I took my girlfriend home to meet my parents, my girlfriend is pregnant, and it is estimated that he will marry his son. ”

"They are too irresponsible to themselves, why are they in such a hurry to get married at such a young age? ”

"Eldest sister, is early marriage a psychopath? Besides, they have all reached the legal age of marriage. Some of my junior high school classmates have children who can carry a bottle and make soy sauce. ”

Jiang Yue was a little speechless, what kind of thinking logic is she?

"Haha. Nowadays, whoever still makes soy sauce buys the whole bottle directly. Zhang Hong said humorously.

"Hey, hey. It's just a metaphor, a metaphor. Jiang Yue smirked.

"Do you support early marriage?" Zhang Hong asked.

"It's hard to say, everyone's circumstances are different, the conditions are different, and the relationship between men and women is also different. Juanzi really loves Zhaozi, and besides, she is pregnant. A woman is injured by an abortion, and she is responsible for having a child, so I support them to get married. ”

"Besides, this is not an early marriage, after all, they are both 22 years old. My parents introduced me to people when I was in college, but fortunately, our family conditions were not good, and no one wanted to marry me, otherwise I might have gotten married after graduation. ”

"Giggle...... Do you sleep every night dreaming that you are holding a woman in your arms?"

Zhang Hong is a girl who loves to laugh, Jiang Yue's words made her laugh uncontrollably, but fortunately there was no one else sitting next to her. They chatted very speculatively until almost ten o'clock.

"It's not early, go back and rest, and get up early tomorrow to work." Zhang Hong picked up the handbag and stood up, and Jiang Yue walked out with her.

"Is this far from where you live?" asked Zhang Hong.

"It's not far, it's three stops away. ”

"I'll send you back. ”

"No, I'll walk back. If you eat too much tonight, you should exercise and eat. ”

Jiang Yue declined Zhang Hong's kindness, then waved goodbye to her and walked back alone.

"You just went out to eat?" asked Aunt May back in the room.

"Yes, Aunt May, a colleague invited me to dinner. ”

"You should move around more with your colleagues, say that there are many friends and multiple roads, and if you don't have food on you, you can take the money from me. Aunt Mei said with a smile.

"Thank you, Aunt Mei, I'll talk to you if you need to. Jiang Yue was very grateful to her.

After lunch the next day, Zhang Hong called Jiang Yue to the office again, took out an envelope and handed it to Jiang Yue.

"What's in here?"

"Three thousand dollars. What do you think, love letters? If writing such a love letter can exhaust me to death. Zhang Hong laughed again after speaking.

"Manager Zhang, what do you mean by giving me three thousand yuan?" Jiang Yue was puzzled.

"It's not interesting, this is what I lent you, but it's not money to raise a little white face. Pay me back in half a year, understand?"

"No, Manager Zhang, I'm not short of money. Jiang Yue hurriedly put down the envelope, how could he take other people's money.

"Jiang Yue, you are obviously short of money but you have to say that you are not short of money, what is your hypocrisy? I always thought that you were a very real person, but your performance disappointed me. Zhang Hong pretended to be angry.

"No, Manager Zhang, these are two different things. Jiang Yue waved her hand anxiously.

"Are we friends, why do people make friends?"

"We are friends, and we would like to hear about it. Jiang Yue asked Zhang Hong.

"A friend is someone who can be anxious about what you are anxious about, can support each other, help each other, and work together. Since we are friends, if I don't help you when you are in trouble, am I not interesting enough? In fact, what supports the friendship between friends is righteousness. Helping a friend is righteousness, and accepting help is also righteousness, understand?"

"Understood. Jiang Yue nodded frequently.

"Now that you understand, take the money away, and remember to pay me back later. Zhang Hong smiled slyly.

"If you don't take me, you won't be angry, right?" Jiang Yue said with a wry smile.

"That's it. People who expose their difficulties to their friends, but refuse their help, are either hypocritical or villains. Zhang Hong Zhenzhen has words

"Why?"

"Because a friend sees that you need help, and he has the ability to help you. If you reject his kindness, it will be a disservice to him. Is the person who hurts friendship and feelings a villain?" Zhang Hong said with confidence.

"You always feel like you're indebted, but you're wrong. True friends don't need to say thank you, and there is no such thing as who owes a favor. This is a sentiment, a sentiment that does not want to be reciprocated. ”

"What you said seems to make sense, so I won't refuse to take it anymore. Jiang Yue put the envelope in her trouser pocket.

"That's right, be a good boy. Seeing Jiang Yue put the money away, Zhang Hong smiled.

She was very disappointed when she went back last night, and after listening to Jiang Yue's story, she was very sympathetic. She is a girl who values righteousness and affection, and she wants to help Jiang Yue get through the difficulties.

But she is also familiar with Jiang Yue's character, and she is thinking about how to help him without hurting his self-esteem and leaving him enough dignity as a man.

She couldn't sleep at this thought, she couldn't sleep at all, she didn't know why she thought about it so much.

After returning from work for dinner, Jiang Yue went to the bank to deposit the money into her brother's bank card using an ATM.

Of the 3,000 yuan, he deposited 2,800 yuan, and left 200 yuan for emergency.

It was only more than a thousand meters from the bank to his residence, and Jiang Yue walked for more than an hour, and he thought a lot about it along the way.
