Chapter 1278 - Wholeheartedly
In just half a day, "Xu Tao repaying the money" has become a national hot event. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The speed of "heat" can be so fast, not only because Youzhi Weibo is pushing it all out behind the scenes, but also because this incident itself has the power to make people feel warm.
In the matter of "Xu Tao repaying the money", different people see different keywords, such as "gratitude", such as "integrity", such as "self-respect", such as "dignity".
The reason why I saw "dignity" was because Xu Tao gave interest at the same time as repayment.
The interest rate of 5% is not high, but a recent college graduate, in the case of his own limited income, still meticulously repays the loan with interest, and repays the donations that others do not expect him to return, his courage is pure, and his belief is strong, so that those who hear about his behavior are admired.
Especially with the powerful netizen "human flesh" out of Xu Tao's work unit and recent life, it was found that Xu Tao, who had just graduated for more than a year, did not have a high salary, he rented a partition room, and almost never bought new clothes after working for a year, completely relying on frugality to pay back.
After netizens posted the information about "human flesh" on Weibo, people's evaluation of Xu Tao was raised by one level.
Think of those old scoundrels who spend other people's money to live their own chic lives; think of those bosses who maliciously default on the wages of migrant workers; think of those who drive luxury cars and wear famous watches to apply for low-rent housing and affordable housing; and then think of those who have their own houses to live in, second suites to rent and cars to drive, but turn to the society for help and treatment...... The pattern of life is high and judgmental.
As a result, the quality of messages on the Internet began to upgrade.
-- I have always felt that it is enough to bless others with peace and joy, but today I want to bless this young man named Xu Tao to get ahead, sincerely, I hope he can go wider and flatter in this real world!
-- Kindness and integrity, let this impetuous world become warm, so that more people can see and feel the nobility of the human heart, this is the best Weibo I have seen during this time, thank you for this platform, bless Xu Tao!
Soon, well-known big Vs also joined in-
-- Honesty is the first chapter of the book of wisdom, and Xu Tao's life book will be wonderful.
-- Even if the economic conditions are difficult, we will still stick to the bottom line of value, and even if there are no external constraints, we will still abide by the laws of morality. What Xu Tao shows is a person's high self-esteem, a sense of dignity from the heart, and with this belief, even if he is not successful in his life, he must be upright.
It reminds people that those who donate do not have to expect a return, but those who benefit must have a sense of gratitude, and if this concept is more popular, gratitude and helping others will form a virtuous circle, so that we will have more confidence in the future of society.

February 14, Valentine's Day.
On the Internet and in the newspapers, a positive news of "giving roses to people has a lingering fragrance" comprehensively overwhelmed roses and became the hottest news hotspot of the day.
Among all the media, Youth Daily has the highest reprint rate.
Because Xu Tao himself didn't want to receive too much attention, he politely refused interviews with many media outlets, but accepted an interview with a reporter from the "Youth Daily" who helped him when he asked for help online.
Compared with other media outlets who have learned about Xu Tao from former donors, mothers, teachers, classmates, and neighbors, people see a more "real" Xu Tao in the report of Youth Daily.
In the report of "Youth Daily", Xu Tao mainly said five points:
First, he feels that other people's money is also hard-earned, and no one has the right to get it for nothing.
Second, he believes that honesty and commitment are the basic principles of life, regardless of whether the commitment is subject to external forces.
Third, he said that he repaid the money, mainly because he promised to pay it back, and at the same time he repaid the money, hoping that well-wishers would continue and pass on their love and continue to help those in need around him.
Fourth, he mainly told the story of Zigong's redemption.
The state of Lu issued a proclamation that if the people of Lu saw their compatriots in a foreign country suffering misfortune and become slaves, as long as they ransomed these people, they could receive compensation and rewards from the state. Zigong, a disciple of Confucius, ransomed the Lu people from foreign countries, but did not ask for anything in return. Confucius said that Zigong did something wrong, so that if he saved a slave and received a bounty, he would be ridiculed, and if he did not receive the bounty, he would suffer a loss.
Fifth, he said that he did not want his behavior of repaying the money to make well-wishers expect other embarrassed donors to repay the money, and did not want his behavior to put pressure on other people in need.
As soon as the report came out, many people fell into thought.
People unexpectedly found that Xu Tao was not only a great trustworthy young man, but also an empathetic gentleman.
People unexpectedly found that Xu Tao's behavior was not only to achieve his own gentlemanly virtue, but also to his way of thinking for the sake of others.
If other people were to say such a high-sounding thing, people might have doubted his motives, but Xu Tao is different, Xu Tao is a person who has experienced misfortune (Xu's father is seriously ill and has passed away), and he has the psychological conditions to think about the situation of other unfortunate people.
Such a person deserves a higher evaluation than a trustworthy person.
A higher evaluation soon appeared, from a Weibo that is too big to be big - Zhiwei Boss Bian Xuedao's Weibo!
At 10 o'clock in the morning on February 14, Bian Xuedao's Weibo posted a paragraph that he didn't have anyone, but everyone could see who he was talking about.
The Weibo content is like this: There was a kind of person in ancient China called "shi". Scholars, relatives are filial, gentlemen are loyal, friends are faithful, and hometown is cowardly. Poverty does not lose righteousness, and it does not deviate from the way. There is no constant production but perseverance. No matter what kind of situation you are in, you have the backbone, faithfulness, integrity, and always. The spiritual aristocracy is for the scholars.
Seeing this Weibo, some people pointed out that they quoted the words in "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn - Correct Name" and "Mencius-Wholeheartedly";
Someone followed behind and patted the sycophants, "The male god must love to read";
Some people immediately realized that Xu Tao, who was so highly rated by Debian Xuedao, was afraid that he was going to have good luck.
It's normal to think so.
With the prestige and resources of today's Bian Xuedao, it is easy to control the fate of one or two ordinary people.
However......
Some people's fates can be manipulated, and some people's fates are forbidden to God.
After arriving in Europe, Xia Ning and Tong Chao went to three of the most authoritative cancer medical institutions in Europe under the leadership of Youdao Group staff.
As a result, Tong Chao's last hope was also dashed.
At 4:20 a.m. Greek time on February 14, the sky over Santorini was filled with stars.
Tong Chao and Xia Ning sat on the terrace near the sea around a thick blanket, snuggling and talking softly.
The Aegean Sea was a dream of Xia Ning, so Tong Chao brought her here.
The sea in front of the two is windless and waveless, calm as a mirror, looking into the distance, there are faint sparse and sporadic lights, in the contrast of the bright stars in the sky, it seems extremely lonely.
Leaning on Tong Chao's arms, Xia Ning looked at the sky and said, "The starry sky we see now is actually a distant projection of many, many years ago. After countless years of traveling, the stars arrived at this moment and became a part of this bright starry sky, falling into our eyes, and the stars themselves may no longer be there. β
Tong Chao was silent.
He was very afraid that Xia Ning would say such things, because every time he heard Xia Ning say something similar, he would feel distressed, very painful, very painful.
But he didn't want Xia Ning to endure it, in this last time, as long as Xia Ning liked it, he was willing to do anything, and he could endure anything.
"One person, one life, don't feel sorry for me. Xia Ning then said leisurely: "I am willing to live here and die quietly on a starry night." β
"I know it's cruel to you to say that, but I can't help it, I'm always afraid that I won't have a chance to say it in the next second......"
"After I leave, I hope there will be a better person to accompany you, staggering and holding you, watching the trees and flowers burn out and the sunset burn out and the sky full of stars...... I hope that your life is flat and meaningful, not necessarily vigorous, but respected and recognized, hello, I will be happy wherever I am. β
