Chapter Twenty-Eight: Change Yourself
That night, I was sitting on the bus home when I received a text message from Xiaolan.
At that time, I saw her name on the caller prompt, and I still felt very strange in my heart, and when I opened the text message, there were only a few short words: Sister Wei, I'm sorry.
I almost cried when I said this sorry, and I was very emotional.
I leaned back in the back seat of the bus and had a lot of thoughts.
I still remember Xiaolan's appearance when she first came to the company, thin and small, timid, completely like a college student who had just left school, I interviewed her with an assistant manager in the personnel department, and finally decided to keep her.
Later, at work, I also taught her hand-in-hand, so that she was familiar with a series of processes of advertising planning, to be honest, the last incident happened, how Sun Qigang was humiliated, how Zhao Bingyan was embarrassed, I didn't feel so painful, but only to Xiaolan opened her eyes and said blind words to me that made me stumble, my heart has been lingering, helpless, indignant, of course, more regretful.
I am a straightforward person, but also a person who values love and righteousness, what I value is the true feelings between people, Zhao Bingyan embarrassed me, probably out of some interests and feelings, I felt that I posed a threat to her; Sun Qigang embarrassed me, that is his dandy nature of a playboy, although I am not ashamed of these behaviors, but I can understand.
But I only can't understand Xiaolan's behavior, what is the reason for her to do such a thing that reverses right and wrong for a little girl who is not deeply involved in the world?
Now that she's gone, it could all be a mystery forever.
In the next two quarters, I got a high commission and bonus, and the money in hand was about tens of thousands of yuan, which can be regarded as a small amount.
At the same time, my position was promoted to the position of deputy manager of the planning department, before the appointment of this position, Mr. Wei had talked to me, he told me that this position is only temporary, as long as my performance is stable, I will be promoted to the manager of the planning department in the next step.
At that time, I subconsciously asked, "What about Manager Zhao?"
Hearing me mention Zhao Bingyan's name, a trace of complicated emotions flashed on Wei Dong's face, he thought to himself for a while, and then told me in a low voice: "Manager Zhao may be promoted to another vice president of the company at that time, and what he is responsible for will be determined by Mr. Zhou and the board of directors." ”
I let out a soft "oh".
Looking at my stunned expression, Mr. Wei said to me: "Sister Wei, do a good job, you are the character that Mr. Zhou has always been optimistic about, and it is also what he has always meant to bring you up, and it is precisely because he trusts you very much that he plans to hand over the most important department of the advertising company to you for management, I hope you will work steadily and steadily, and work with us to make Yiyou Advertising Company stronger and bigger." ”
Looking at Wei Zhao's trusting eyes, I was quite moved, and I said eagerly to Mr. Wei: "Mr. Wei, don't worry, I will definitely live up to the leader's expectations of me." ”
Mr. Wei looked at me and smiled, and nodded reassuringly.
I had a little money on hand, and the first thing I thought of was my baby daughter Jump, who armed her all over her body, took her to a few big shopping malls on Sunday, bought her a few sets of clothes and shoes she liked, and I also changed her to a color mobile phone suitable for children, and took her to visit the book city, bought a lot of books suitable for her, and was so happy that her little mouth couldn't close.
The rest of the money, in addition to sending back part of it to my mother's family, I saved the rest, and before saving, I also took out more than 1,000 yuan to buy some gifts and went to visit Xu Minghui's parents.
Although Xu Minghui betrayed me, his parents have always been good to me, and now they still help me take care of my daughter from time to time.
Seeing my arrival, the two old men of the Xu family were very happy, while praising me for being sensible, while scolding their son, in the end, the two old men were very emotional, holding my hand, hoping that I would give their son another chance to reunite with Xu Minghui.
In fact, since the divorce, because my daughter Hopping often goes to her grandparents' house, I have long wanted to visit the two old people, and the reason why I have delayed the future is that I am afraid that they will mention to me that I will remarry Xu Minghui, because I really don't have that mind now, since I divorced him, I no longer want to get back together with him.
My sister Hai Jing still talks to me on the phone every day, and when she is on annual leave, she comes to visit me in my city.
On Saturday, the two sisters sat in my bedroom in the house and talked.
Hearing me mention that I had recently made a small fortune, and that I had taken tens of thousands of yuan, and then looked at the few bottles of cheap cosmetics I bought from the supermarket on the dresser, and the clothes hanging in the closet that did not exceed five hundred yuan in ordinary styles, Hai Jing sighed.
She said to me bitterly: "Sister, it's not me talking about you, you have to change your concept, don't be like the previous way of living, you see that you have lived for more than 30 years, you are reluctant to eat and wear, and all good things are left to the surnamed Xu and Jumping, or you can save them." What will happen in the end? People don't say anything about cheating and betraying you, they also put the blame on you, saying that you are not attractive, that you are not attractive, that you cannot keep a man's heart, and that you are not thankless? Why bother?"
Listening to my sister's earnest persuasion, I let out a long sigh, she was not the first to say this to me, and I am afraid it will not be the last.
I looked at Hai Jing and asked her softly, "Then what do you think I should do?"
Hai Jing smiled helplessly, then pointed to my face and said to me slowly: "At least, your face should be maintained! You don't want to think about how old you are? Many people say that a woman's face was given by her parents before the age of twenty-five, and after the age of twenty-five, she gave it to herself." So theoretically speaking, women should strengthen maintenance after the age of twenty-five, such as basic makeup, sunscreen, and must use something with a good texture. Look at you, you make a lot of money, but you still use more than ten yuan of supermarket goods, cold and cold fall second, mainly to protect your skin, people say that a woman's face, how good you are to it, how good it is to you, look at you," said, Hai Jing approached my face, and said regretfully, "There are fine lines at the corners of my eyes, I have to use some good eye cream quickly." ”
I smiled and avoided her sharp eyes, and said, "Okay, I know, I know." ”
However, Hai Jing still refused to let me go, she dragged me to the front of the wardrobe by my hand, opened the door of the wardrobe, pointed to my ordinary dresses and whispered to me: "Sister, I'm not saying that these clothes are not good-looking, or that you can't wear these clothes, but I still have to say ......."
As she spoke, Hai Jing looked at me, her eyes became very serious, and for some reason, I wanted to laugh a little when I saw my own sister become so serious.
Hai Jing looked at me seriously and continued: "But I still have to say that some big brands of clothing can elevate people's temperament, you see that those clothes and skirt styles are very ordinary, but when worn on the body, they are different from those cheap small brands, if you don't believe it, you will know if you try it." ”
"How to try?" I asked Hai Jing with some trepidation.
Hai Jing pretended to sigh and said to me slowly: "This girl is ready to sacrifice her life to accompany the gentleman this time, waste my good vacation, and accompany you to improve your dressing standards!"
As soon as I heard her words, I knew that she was going to let me burn money, and as soon as I heard that I was burning money, I felt pain, so I hurriedly waved my hand at her, and said again and again: "No, no, you better rest at home, improve your dressing standards, or wait until I turn back and slowly figure it out......
Before I could finish my words, Hai Jing had already pulled the clothes I hung on the hanger, and urged me to say: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get dressed, this girl came to S City this time to teach you how to pack yourself." ”
I had no choice but to put on my clothes, and at this time, Hai Jing had already quickly put on her coat and kicked off her slippers, then changed into high heels, carried her small leather bag, and pulled me all the way out of the door.
While standing at the entrance of the community and waiting for the bus, I quietly observed my sister Haijing standing beside me.
My sister Hai Jing has black straight waist-length hair, even if it is not straightened and not messy, and the light is recognizable.
Unlike me, Hai Jing's skin is very fair and delicate, which she follows my mother and I follow my father, so her skin is darker. Haijing is the youngest in our family, so the whole family spoils her more, since she was a child, she has not suffered too much, so she is not like me to live a very tight life.
Like many post-80s, Hai Jing is a little girl who is more able to dress up and enjoy life, she graduated from a famous university, after graduation, after several setbacks, and finally worked for a world-renowned Fortune 500 company, is an out-and-out senior white-collar worker, her income is not low, and she uses nearly half of the money to package and dress herself, and keeps up with the trend of fashion in terms of dressing, so her dressing taste and makeup level are naturally not low.
Today she wore a beige tunic trench coat, a pair of black matte pointed heels, carrying a small black leather bag of LV brand, the stand-up collar and waist-pinching windbreaker style set off her towering breasts and slender waist flawlessly, a black hair gently fluttering in the wind, with her delicate facial features depicting delicate makeup, she looks really a stunning beauty, very pleasing to the eye.
