"Didn't you say that people are in good spirits on happy occasions, why do you look half-dead?" said Xiao Jiang unhappily.

"I've been reported. Ding Dong was also unhappy, "I didn't know that the hotel didn't allow a second job, so I have been working part-time, who knew that I was reported to the hotel and asked me to quit my part-time job." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Jiang was stunned, and then, she jumped up and shook her hand, "It's definitely not me, I didn't report you!"

"Hehe," Ding Dong sneered, "Maybe it's you, jealous that I snatched the man you like." ”

"Hey, you damn girl!" Xiao Jiang's eyes widened.

"Room 1403 guests need a razor. ”

The switchboard sent a service order.

"Roger. Ding Dong replied.

"Hey!" Seeing that Ding Dong ignored him, Xiao Jiang stretched out his legs angrily and kicked Ding Dong's feet.

Basically without force, Ding Dong didn't bother to pay attention to it, slowly stood up, and put the mobile phone and Xitang into his pocket.

"You brought sugar on the floor?" asked Xiao Jiang in surprise.

"As a woman who has been robbed of the man you like, your attention shifts so quickly. Ding Dong teased, and Xiao Jiang kicked her again.

"You didn't make it to supper, so you want to stuff a piece of candy when you're hungry, don't you? You idiot, I've got bread for you. Xiao Jiang said, opened the drawer, and took out the bread.

"Since you're so well-behaved, I'll be reluctant to make it difficult, and I'll come back and eat later. Ding Dong walked out of the office in Xiao Jiang's sentence of "Dese".

If there is anyone in this world who is really a knife-mouthed tofu heart, it is really Xiao Jiang. If Xiao Jiang is a whistleblower, Ding Dong will never believe it.

However, it is not the point who reported it, the point is that even if she gets the salary that Aunt Hong gave her, plus the overpayment of 500 yuan, it is far from enough to deliver the cost of the rehabilitation hospital.

"There are still more than 2,300 yuan left......"

After delivering the razor that the guests in room 1408 wanted, Ding Dong leaned against the door of the staff passage, looking at the ledger in his hand and muttering to himself.

A hand suddenly reached over and snatched Ding Dong's ledger.

"The deposit is 1716.96 yuan, and the restaurant salary is 1299 yuan......" Qiao Qiao read a string of numbers on the ledger, raised his head with a smile, and said to Ding Dong, "Isn't it?

"Employees are poor, and you customers are rich, right? Ding Dong said, and went to grab the account book, but Qiao Qiao took a step back to avoid Ding Dong and continued to look through the account book. It's a very ordinary.,It can even be called an old book.。 There are a lot of numbers densely written on it, and there are extremely detailed notes next to it.

"This guest, it's rude for you to do this. Ding Dong made a face, she had used this ledger for many years, recording all the expenses and records, as well as her powerless poverty and self-esteem that she carefully hidden.

"Give me back. Ding Dong was a little angry, and she stretched out her hand.

Jojo quickly glanced at the ledger a few times, then hid it behind him.

"The customer is God, that's the motto of your Hephais Hotel. Jojo smiled playfully and said, "If you want to go back, you can, unless you take money to ransom it." ”

"Hehe, I have such a little hard-earned money in total, and you can bear it?" Although she was annoyed, Qiaoqiao's reason really made her laugh, "All my belongings are enough for you to pay for two days, right?"

"When I say money, it's not principal, it's interest. Qiao Qiao tilted his head to look at Ding Dong and said, "You are in a hurry to use the money, right? I will lend you 1% interest, how about it?"

Ding Dong was stunned, and when she reacted, she couldn't help laughing: "What will happen if the hotel finds out that the staff borrows money privately from the guest? You don't want my money, you want my life, guest!"

"You're so uncreative, Ding Dong," Qiao Qiao said with a grin, "I'm a guest of the hotel, not yours." And I don't mind being your friend. ”

"Friend", these two words made Ding Dong's brain blank for a moment.

Friend, how long has it been since she'd heard those two words?

People say that college is the best time to open up social circles, make friends and fall in love, but he is as busy as Ding Dong, and he is always "on the way to work when he is not working". She doesn't have time for romance or energy to make friends.

Friends are an expensive luxury in this world, which requires you to constantly use your heart, time, energy and money to provide and maintain, but Ding Dong has none of these things.

She has been "running naked" for more than 20 years, so much so that now she suddenly hears the words "we are friends", which feels strange and unexpected.

Ding Dong took a moment to summarize the language, and then said to Qiao Qiao sincerely: "Thank you very much, Qiao Qiao. However, I can't borrow money from you. ”

She calls her "Jojo", not "guest", and is already clearly grateful to Jojo and doesn't mind being a little closer. But borrowing money is definitely not something Ding Dong would do.

As if guessing Ding Dong's mental activity, Qiao Qiao smiled: "Then who do you borrow money from? Do you have relatives or friends who can lend you money? Or, will you open up to your colleagues?"

In Ding Dong's mind, several faces appeared along with Qiao Qiao's words.

Her relatives, her limited relatives.

Her mother's illness made the once young Ding Dong at a loss, she didn't know how to deal with it, and she couldn't think of any other way except to ask the elders for help. But as time passed, she found more and more that there were fewer and fewer relatives around her. They gave her fewer and fewer smiles, more and more faces, and even when Ding Dong carried gifts to thank the other party for taking care of her during the New Year, they no longer opened the door for her.

When Ding Dong was leaving his relative's house, he accidentally heard the other party's complaint from the open window at the back of the house. It turned out that the relatives were not at home, but they just didn't want to open the door and didn't want to be close to her anymore, so they deliberately did it.

"Speaking of which, it's all to blame that guy for being too ruthless, he walked refreshed and clean, leaving his wife and children at home......"

"Everyone has their own life, and we have a limited ability to help here. ”

That was the first time Ding Dong realized what "boundaries" were, and that her home was not the same thing as a relative's home. I am grateful enough to be able to support her for so long, everyone has their own difficulties that need to be faced, Ding Dong can't and shouldn't bother and drag her back.

She knew that the friendship at a low place only increased the burden of others, so she no longer bothered the lives of her relatives. She studied hard and worked hard, yearning for a better tomorrow, but a self-sufficient today.

Therefore, not borrowing money from anyone is the minimum she asks of herself, and it is also her way of maintaining her dignity.

- She will not borrow money from relatives and colleagues.

From Ding Dong's expression at the moment, Qiao Qiao had already guessed the answer, she checked Ding Dong's account book, and said with a smile: "I borrow money from you, you repay my interest, you solve the urgent need, I don't lose money, it's a matter of benefiting two by two." ”

As he spoke, Qiao Qiao handed the account book to Ding Dong: "Favor and interest, which one do you choose?"

Ding Dong looked at Qiao Qiao and finally took over the ledger.

"I'll write you an IOU. She said.

Jojo burst out laughing, as if she had heard the funniest joke of the century, and she leaned back and laughed.

"I didn't expect you to be such a character, Ding Dong, you are so funny. But you don't need an IOU, you can just take something to me, and it will be an IOU. ”

Whatever?

Ding Dong touched her pocket, except for the ledger and mobile phone, she only had a bag of sugar.

Hi sugar.

*****

Qiao Qiao gave Ding Dong a bank card and asked her to withdraw the money by herself.

"You can't transfer money on WeChat, Alipay can do it too." ”

"There's no such thing, you go get the money now. ”

This seemingly trendy young girl doesn't even have WeChat and Alipay?

And......

"You trust me so much and give me all the bank cards and passwords?" Ding Dong looked at Qiao Qiao in disbelief, as if he was looking at a living visitor from outside the world.

"Don't be suspicious of employing people, don't use suspicious people, go quickly. ”

Ding Dong wanted to say that he would borrow himself when Qiao Qiao got the money tomorrow, but in view of what Qiao Qiao said, she would have to check out early tomorrow morning, so Ding Dong had to ask for leave and go to a nearby ATM overnight to withdraw the money.

The password was written by Qiao Qiao on the paper torn from the ledger, Ding Dong entered the withdrawal page according to the number written on the note, she directly clicked the withdrawal button, and did not check the balance.

After taking out 2,300 yuan from the cash outlet, she printed out the voucher and returned it to Qiaoqiao along with the bank card and password note.

"I didn't look at the balance in the card, it's a slip and an IOU. Ding Dong said.

"I already have the IOU. Qiao Qiao raised the candy bag in his hand and said with a smile.

"Okay, it's good if you're happy," Ding Dong was quite helpless at the childish Qiao Qiao, "Anyway, thank you." ”

"I should thank you. Qiao Qiao said, the expression on his face suddenly became evil, "I also earn interest, 1% a day." ”

"Are you the devil?!" Ding Dong cried.

"Of course I'm the devil," Qiao Qiao, who is 160CM tall, stood on tiptoe and approached Ding Dong, who was nearly 10 centimeters taller than her, and said word by word, "Welcome to the darkness, lovely Ding Dong." ”

After that, she didn't wait for Ding Dong to react, so she laughed out loud, and then laughed out loud.

"Childish. Ding Dong rolled his oversized eyes.

Ding Dong is indeed very grateful to Qiao Qiao, as she said, this money is really enough for Ding Dong to solve his urgent needs.

As soon as the salary is paid on the 10th, Ding Dong will immediately return the money to Qiao Qiao, along with interest.

Two hundred and thirty dollars of interest, breakfast for two days at the Hephais Grand Hotel.

Ding Dong knew very well that this was Qiao Qiao helping herself, in a way that fulfilled her self-esteem, she accepted her kindness, and hoped that one day she could give back in a more decent way.

There will come a time.

Ding Dong said to himself.
