Chapter 9: Communication Barriers
On Monday morning, I woke up before the alarm went off. Wash your hair, wash and trim yourself, and look at yourself in the mirror.
"Well, it's okay, the spirit is good, and the clothes are good."
Looking down at the thief's dazzling leather shoes, he was very satisfied.
"I don't know if Xiaoyou will feel so bright when he sees it? Hey hey ......"
When they walked out of the bathroom, the two classmates had just woken up, and they were obviously stunned, and summed up four words: people look like dogs.
Hey, I'm more satisfied now.
On the bus, I deliberately did not sit, but stood straight holding on to the handrails, reminding myself from time to time to keep my back straight. The owner of the roadside breakfast stall boasted again, and I was so confident that I felt the urge to fly off the earth.
walked into the building where the company was located, stepped out of the elevator, and found that Xiao Chen had arrived, just waiting for the door to open.
"Are you so rare?" I said to Xiao Chen as I opened the door.
"That's a must. Hey, I knew you'd get there at about this point. ”
"Strange, what about Xiaoyu? Why is it usually early and late on Monday? ”
"How do I know, just you're here."
"Today is the official start of our work, will you be nervous?" As I walked into the company, I casually asked Xiao Chen.
"Nervous about what? The owner took us out, what was there to be nervous about. Just stand quietly and listen. Not a big problem. ”
"For the first time, I felt a little nervous."
"You'll get used to it later." Xiao Chen patted me on the shoulder.
"Well, but you don't look as good in a suit as I am."
"And~"
The two of us just walked to the desk and didn't sit down, Xiaoyou also walked into the company, looked at the two of us, looked at it hesitantly, I thought she would come to praise a few words, but I didn't speak, and turned my head straight in.
When I turned on the computer and was about to go to get the tea set to wash, I heard the boss and the expert walking in while discussing.
The boss looked at me holding the tea set and asked, "Is it washed?" ”
"Not yet, I'm about to take it and wash it."
"Then don't wash it today, you two come over first, and I'll explain something to you with the expert."
In this way, Xiao Chen and I listened carefully to the explanations of the boss and experts.
Xiaoyou is still doing her job, working hard alone.
At half past eight, the four of us set off, and before leaving, the boss ran to Xiao Youna to explain some things to her.
In the morning, the boss took us to three schools, there were no other companies, it was a little different from what I said before, but I didn't ask, it wasn't something I should ask. I listened honestly and carefully to what the experts had to say and quietly wrote it down.
When I went back, it was nearly twelve o'clock. The boss suggested that we go to a well-known beef shop near the company to eat. Xiao Chen and I must be a hundred willing, and even I have the urge to drool, I'm so hungry!
When I arrived at the beef shop, as soon as I sat down, the boss picked up the phone as if he remembered something, "Xiaoyou, you come down to the beef shop next to you downstairs for a meal." "It's okay, hurry down and eat, it's just a few people in our company, and no one else." "Pack up and get down. ”
Obviously, Xiao Yu may want to shirk it, but fails.
The table in the beef shop is square, and the four of us used to sit just right, but now we have to change to a longer table in the middle. The boss sat opposite the expert, and the two began to talk about what had just happened at the school. Xiao Chen sat next to the boss, I wanted to sit next to the expert, but after thinking about it, the table was so big, there was no need to squeeze into a ball, so I sat next to Xiao Chen.
"You sit so far away, wait for the food to be served, you can't even clamp it." Xiao Chen secretly reminded me of this.
"It's okay, I'm long."
After a while, the meal came, a bowl of salty rice per person, a bowl of larger beef soup, and no other dishes were seen. I guess you don't need to order food to eat this, I thought to myself. Looking out the door, why hasn't Xiaoyou come yet?
After waiting for a while, finally a dish came, a fried beef offal, a fried tofu, and a green vegetable, but fortunately, the dish was placed in front of Xiao Chen by the waiter, not very far.
I saw that a few of them had already moved their chopsticks, and just wanted to take a sip of soup, when I turned my head and saw Xiaoyou come in and put the soup down again.
The boss looked at Xiao You, who was about to sit down, "Xiao You is here, sit down, the food is ready for you." ”
Xiao You glanced at the food with a smile, chose to sit in front of me, and gently pulled the salty rice and beef soup in front of Xiao Chen in front of him.
From seeing her enter the door to sitting in front of me, I didn't dare to look up at her again, I was nervous, more nervous than in front of those bosses and leaders just now.
I took a few bites of salty rice, drank a mouthful of soup, and wanted to eat some green vegetables.
With his spare eyes, he looked at the chopsticks on the opposite side picking the coriander and chopped green onions in the beef broth. I couldn't help but look up at Xiaoyou, she was still picking, very seriously, and didn't notice that I was looking at her.
I turned my head to look at Xiao Chen, who was only concerned with cooking, and at the boss and experts who were talking.
Taking a deep breath, he mustered up a lot of courage and asked Xiao You on the other side softly, "Is coriander hard to eat?" You pick so clean. ”
"No, I just think it smells." Xiao Yu stopped and glanced up at me.
"I think it's delicious and fragrant."
"Then you eat, I didn't tell you not to eat."
When I said this, I smiled awkwardly.
When I was thinking about how to save the situation, Xiao Chen's sudden words startled me, "Many girls don't eat things like green onions, ginger and garlic." "This guy knows again.
"Isn't the green onion, ginger and garlic used as a condiment because of the fragrant taste?" I'm also entangled, isn't that a contradiction?
"You ask Xiaoyou, why don't you eat it." Thinking about Xiao Chen, he couldn't understand this, and he knew it instead of understanding, so he proposed to ask Xiao You again.
"If you don't like to eat, you don't like to eat, is there so many reasons?" Xiao You also pouted helplessly.
"Well, yes, what the beauty says is what it is, no reason." Xiao Chen smiled lightly, said to me, and told me such a simple truth again.
I wanted to continue the topic, but seeing that she was still picking, the words came to her mouth, and she swallowed them back, so let's eat her own food.
The three of us didn't speak until we finished eating. The owner sent the expert to the hotel and the three of us had to walk back.
"It's better than our downstairs, you say?" As soon as the boss left, Xiao Chen asked me unsatisfied.
I was still thinking about the onions, ginger and garlic, and when I heard Xiao Chen ask, I had to reply to him, "Well, it's delicious." ”
"Xiaoyou, I see you haven't finished eating, there are so many left." Xiao Chen felt dispensable with my reply, and turned to ask Xiao You behind us.
"There are so many bowls of two, where can I finish it."
"Will it? I added half a bowl of soup to get enough to eat. ”
"That's why you're so fat, you see that the suit is like you putting on and taking off."
"That's no way, I can get fat by eating anything, it's like you two are too slim."
"I see that Xiao He eats quite a lot, why is he still so thin, the man is too thin, not good-looking." Xiao You didn't answer Xiao Chen's words. Instead, it led the topic to me, which made me, a serious listener, also stunned.
"Hehe, no way, since I have memory, it has always been like this, there is a long one, there is no meat, I can't help it." I honestly replied to Xiaoyu's words.
"Wow, then you should be the envy of many people, right? Including me! Xiao Chen took my words.
"Well, there is a little envy of people who don't eat fat." Xiao You also looked a little worried.
"yes, I don't know. I don't think it's good to eat without getting fat, and it's better to grow a little meat. "Listening to them say this, I can't help but tell the truth.
"Today's girls, which one will love to grow fat and gain weight." Xiao You is obviously a little afraid of gaining weight.
"What about this...... I don't know, I don't know much about women's thoughts. "I don't know how to get to this topic anymore.
"You don't talk to the girls in your class, don't you chat?" Xiao You didn't speak, but Xiao Chen was obviously interested in this topic.
"Talk. It's rarely, in the past few years of college, I basically didn't have any communication with the female classmates in the class, and I didn't even remember what they were called. I said helplessly. Xiao You silently became a listener again, listening to my chat with Xiao Chen as he walked.
"Really, are you so introverted?"
"Is this introverted? That's how it should be. ”
"I can believe that you haven't been in love, but you make me believe that you don't talk to female classmates, and I don't believe you beat me to death."
"Is that hard to understand? Nothing, why should I run to chat with female classmates, what to talk about? ”
"You're not an introvert anymore, I feel like you might be sick. Right, Xiaoyu, do you think what he said is true? Xiao Chen was afraid that he really couldn't understand this, so he could only ask Xiao You again.
"I don't know, but I feel like he's not able to speak."
"I'm pretty good at talking, I don't feel that I can't speak, heterosexual dysphoria?"
Xiao Yoo smiled and said nothing. I was depressed and silent. After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Chen didn't say anything. The atmosphere was awkward because of me.
My ears were full of the sound of Xiao You's walking, and my head was empty.
