lose face

Lao Wang works in the design institute, he is simple and low-key, a few half-new clothes, and then a bicycle, it is also it for work, and it is also for grocery shopping.

A few years ago, his wife died, and Lao Wang did not remarry, but only lived with his daughter.

After getting off work that day, Lao Wang was knocked to the ground by a Cadillac that changed lanes, and the surrounding pedestrians immediately dispersed and made a detour.

Lao Wang slowly got up from the ground, but fortunately he didn't feel uncomfortable, so he simply picked up the bicycle again, and the bike was fine.

The car window slowly fell, and a middle-aged man's head poked out: "Master, are you okay?" "

"It's okay! It's okay! Lao Wang is also a good talker, patting the dust on his body as he spoke.

The middle-aged man wanted to get out of the car to check, but was dragged by the young man sitting in the driver's seat.

"What for? Don't get out of the car, there are more people touching porcelain now! "

The middle-aged man broke free of his hand and just opened the car door, but he heard a "bang" and the car door was closed again.

"What are you doing! We also went to Golden Eagle to buy clothes, there are big things on a cloudy day! The young man was extremely impatient, "Doesn't he just want money?" I'll give! "

As he spoke, he took out a dozen hundred-dollar bills from his wallet and threw them out of the car window.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! This kid just got his driver's license, I'm sorry! …… The middle-aged man frequently apologized to Lao Wang, but was interrupted by the young man: "What are you doing?" When I saw him, I touched porcelain! Look at his wretchedness! What a shame! "

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man took out five more bills and threw them out of the car window: "Is it enough!" Tell you: All I have is money! "

The car slowly drove forward, only the middle-aged man stretched out his hand from the window and waved it at him a few times, and for a while, Lao Wang was stunned.

At night, Lao Wang was lying on the bed, and his daughter came in: "Dad! Look at the new clothes I bought you, you wear this on a cloudy day, how shameful you are wearing those torn clothes! "

The daughter thought for a while: "That boy's villa is so big, it's called 'house'!" "

Lao Wang turned over and faced the wall: "Child, the core of everything is people!" Dad hopes that you will live with people in the future, not marry a villa, marry a car...... Dad just wants you to be happy. "

Lao Wang thought about it, then got up: "I want to tell you that in the future...... Lao Wang didn't say anything, and he found that his daughter had left the room at some point.

The next day, Lao Wang accompanied his daughter to the Tianwaitian Crown Hotel in the city as promised, and her daughter complained again along the way: "Dad! Why are you in old clothes again? Shame on me! "

"What's wrong with the old clothes! Lao Wang retorted, "I think back then, we built railways in Pakistan, built buildings, and fought for the country!" What do you know? "

"Dad! I think your brain is broken! "

"Nonsense! Lao Wang felt uncomfortable, and blood gushed on his head. "You kid is going against your word, against the sky! If you want to rebel, you can't do it! Lao Wang wanted to say something again, and thought of the meeting between the parents of the two sides today, so he had to hold back his seizure.

The two walked into the hall, found a place to sit, and the girl ordered a cup of tea. The waiter put down the tea set and put down a glass of water, and Lao Wang suddenly felt thirsty and drank the whole glass of water in one go.

Several waiters next to him pursed their lips and snickered, with a look of disdain, but only Lao Wang himself was confused.

The daughter glanced at Lao Wang: "This cup of water is for washing tea sets, not for drinking." Alas, I'm really shameless...... "

"The teacup has been washed, what are you washing it for? That's what it is! I remember that in Pakistan, a glass of water was also good...... Lao Wang sighed.

At this time, the girl looked up and saw her boyfriend and his parents appear at the door, and immediately greeted him.

Lao Wang took a look at it and immediately recognized that the boy was actually the young man who threw money from the Cadillac yesterday.

He took out fifteen hundred dollars from his trouser pocket and handed it to the boy: "Give it back to you!" By the way, I will die poor in my life, and I will never touch porcelain, that is the real shame! "

The boy's expression was embarrassed, and he didn't know whether to reach out or not. Lao Wang put the banknote on the table and strode away.
