Fang Wei relied on the little salary he earned from his part-time job to improve his family's life, he originally thought that he would borrow money to start a small business, and when he was about to put it into action, his mother suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized.

For this reason, Fang Wei was anxious, like a demon. It really responds to the two sentences in the "Xingshi Hengyan": "The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind." ”

Fang Wei sighed all day long, and his mood changed a lot, attracting the attention of a female colleague. This colleague's name is Wang Mei, who is two years younger than Fang Wei, about 1.6 meters old, white and clean, quite capable.

Wang Mei is usually quiet, always polite when she sees colleagues, never argues with others when she encounters things, speaks slowly and carefully, and looks a little childish, like a child who is not in the world.

Wang Mei is not like other colleagues, she likes to play and make trouble, and when she has nothing to do, she stays quietly and likes to read some books on accounting.

Wang Mei was born with a baby face, and her smile is always on her face, giving people a sense of intimacy. She is never defensive when she gets along with people, she looks at things relatively simply, and is not as sentimental as other female colleagues, which may be related to Wang Mei's age.

Fang Wei treats her as a little sister, and gives three points in everything, the two of them get along relatively well, and they get along quite well. Wang Mei is willing to communicate with Fang Wei, and she talks and chats in her free time, and she has a good impression of Fang Wei.

The two of them often talk and laugh together, and after a long time, there are always colleagues with good deeds, who joke with Fang Wei in private, saying that the two of them are a good match, and they are a natural pair, which makes Fang Wei cry and laugh.

Fang Wei had been worried about the deterioration of his mother's condition, so he sent a letter to his sister, but he couldn't get a reply for a long time, he was thinking about it all day long, and the pressure was getting bigger and bigger. I wake up at night, get up before dawn, wash up, walk to a roadside stall for breakfast, and walk to work.

Fang Wei's rented place is not too far from the factory, about three miles. Fang Wei was in a heavy mood and walked very slowly, as if he wanted to sprinkle all the grievances accumulated in his heart on this road to the factory.

Recently, Fang Wei's mood has become worse and worse, he doesn't ride a bicycle to and from work, walks on foot, and wants to be 'accompanied' by passers-by he doesn't know, so as not to interfere with his thoughts, so that he can calm down and think about how to get through the current predicament.

There are many people in the office, and colleagues talk loudly among themselves, Fang Wei has his own work to do, and he has no time to think about problems. He wanted to return to his rented place after work and put things in order in his hometown, but as soon as he stepped into the empty and deserted house, he felt desolate and depressed, and his thoughts froze all of a sudden.

One morning, Fang Wei was walking on the way to work, and heard someone calling his name behind him, and when he looked back, Wang Mei had already arrived in front of him.

"I shouted at you several times, but you didn't hear it, I just walked with my head down, what's on my mind?" Wang Mei got off the bicycle and stood in front of Fang Wei and said.

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear that." Fang Wei explained.

"I've been observing for a few days, and I see that you are preoccupied and don't talk much, what's wrong?" Wang Mei asked.

"It's nothing, just a little tired." Fang Wei said.

"I don't believe it, you're not usually like this, what's so difficult, can you tell me?" Wang Mei said.

Fang Wei didn't reply, looked at the ground with his eyes, and walked slowly. Wang Mei felt that Fang Wei had snubbed her, and said unhurriedly; "Don't say it, it seems that you don't treat me as a friend."

Fang Wei hesitated for a moment and said; "My mother is sick and hospitalized, I feel uncomfortable, my mood is a little bad, if there is anything inappropriate in my words, please forgive me."

"What disease did your mother have? Does it matter? Can I help? Wang Mei said in a concerned tone.

"Thank you for your kindness, no one can help you with this illness." Fang Wei said.

"The family didn't say how the condition was. Serious or not? Wang Mei said,

"The letter from the family didn't say anything. I've been writing to my sister for more than 10 days, and I haven't heard back yet. I don't know what's going on, it's killing people. Fang Wei said.

"Don't worry, wait and see, in a few days, you may receive the letter." Wang Mei said.

Several colleagues stood at the gate of the factory, saw Fang Wei and Wang Mei coming, smiled and prepared to joke with Fang Wei, and when they saw that his face was not good, they shut up and nodded.

People are like this, if there is anything unpleasant, it will always be seen on the face, and it will also affect the emotions of others, and people will unconsciously obey you. Bad mood is like a plague, it will infect every acquaintance, and everyone will be unhappy together.

A few days later, one Sunday morning, Fang Wei came back from grocery shopping, and when he was about to get home, he saw Wang Mei standing at his door, he walked over briskly and asked; "How did you get to me? Is there something wrong? ”

"If you're not welcome, I'll leave at once." Wang Mei said with a smile.

"Whatever you say, welcome to the Humble House." Fang Wei opened the door and said.

"I went out to do something today, and I happened to pass by you, so I turned around and had a look." Wang Mei said.

Fang Wei opened the door, let Wang Mei into the house, took the stool with his hand, wiped it clean with a towel, and said; "It's a mess in the house, and it makes you laugh. The first time you come to me, don't stand, sit down and talk. ”

Wang Mei sat on the stool, Fang Wei saw her turn around and look at the room, he quickly folded the messy futon on the bed, put the dishes and chopsticks that were not washed last night into the pot, and kicked the dirty clothes on the ground under the bed with his foot.

Fang Wei put away the mess, hid his embarrassment, and said; "I was in a hurry to go out in the morning, and I forgot to clean up my room, which made you smile."

"You men are like this, very sloppy, no one will laugh at you." Wang Mei said with a smile.

The two chatted for a while, Wang Mei got up and stood up, and said; "I have other things to do, I have to go back quickly, so I won't sit down."

After Wang Mei finished speaking, she took out a bag of things from her satchel, put it on the table, turned around and left, Fang Wei hurriedly called out to her; "Wait a minute, what are you putting on the table?"

Wang Mei said; "A thousand dollars for your mother's treatment. Look at your sullen appearance all day long, guess that you have something on your mind, and it's not good to tell others. However, I estimate that eight or nine are not far from ten, and if you are worried about your mother's condition, you must also be worried about money. ”

Fang Wei hurriedly said; "No, this is not good, a thousand yuan is not a decimal number, I will find a way, I can't use your money."

Wang Mei said; "This is the money I saved, and it was not stolen, the money is clean, what are you afraid of?"

Fang Wei said; "I don't mean anything else, it's not easy for you, and your family is not rich, the money is given to me, what can you do? Let's take it back. ”

Wang Mei said; "You don't know about the situation in our family, but it's okay on the whole. Both parents have salaries, and they don't depend on me financially. I sent all my monthly wages back. I don't feel at ease when I put the money on me, mainly because the place I rent is mixed with people, unsafe, and afraid of being stolen. Besides, I don't spend money indiscriminately, and there aren't many places to use it. ”

Fang Wei said; "That's not good, how can I afford so much money? I've been indebted to you, and I can't get enough of it. ”

Wang Mei said; "Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry to use it, when you have the money, when will you pay it back, it's always okay."

After Wang Mei finished speaking, she turned around and walked out of the door, Fang Wei hurriedly chased her out and stuffed the money into her hand. After pulling for a long time, she just didn't answer, and shook off her arm hard, because Fang Wei's hand was too tight, she shook it a few times and didn't shake it off, Wang Mei took a breath, saw a few people standing not far away, and whispered; "Stop pulling and pulling, there are so many people standing over there, so people can see how unbelievable."

Fang Wei turned his head and glanced at several passers-by looking at them, he was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly let go of Wang Mei's arm. Wang Mei took the opportunity to straighten her wrinkled sleeves and left with a red face.

Fang Wei looked at the back of Wang Mei leaving, with indescribable gratitude and shame in his heart, he was a little uneasy, and stood for a while until he couldn't see Wang Mei's figure.

Fang Wei only really felt now that he was like the young man on the train who had no money to buy a ticket, accepting the help of others, what was the feeling in his heart, was it sour? Is it sweet? Is it bitter? Is it spicy? He couldn't tell clearly, Fang Wei's 'sense of taste' seemed to be covered by Wang Mei's pity.

Fang Wei was trapped in helplessness and entanglement, asking himself; Is it so unbearable? Need someone else's sympathy? Need the mercy of others? Need help?

Fang Wei hated only himself, how incompetent, how pitiful, he felt that he was a lot shorter than others all of a sudden, and he was not worthy of walking in this world.

Fang Wei's original bit of self-confidence was shattered in an instant, and the only remaining bit of clarity was like a flood that burst the embankment, pouring thousands of miles and disappearing without a trace.

Qian was like a huge python, entangled Fang Wei's body, making him unable to move, but he still had to struggle to survive. Fang Wei knew in his heart that the days when there was no money had never been distributed at all.

Fang Wei was like a hungry lion, looking for prey everywhere on the vast prairie. Seeing the raging and wide river, blocking the way, on the opposite side of the river, there was a lot of food, but there was no way to cross it, so I could only look up to the sky and howl.

Fang Wei was in pain and suffering, commuting to and from work as always, often on the way home, listlessly walking with steps that were about to be immovable.

At this time, a car parked on the side of the road, the door suddenly opened, Fang Wei, who was unprepared, was startled, and hurriedly flashed to the side, he was about to get angry, a familiar voice came into his ears; "I've been waiting for you for a long time, why did you get off work?"

Fang Wei walked to the front of the car, and Xiaoli was sitting in the driver's seat, smiling and waving to him, signaling to sit in the car. Fang Wei saw Xiaoli's smiling appearance, he was a little angry, he sat in the car, closed the door with his hand, and said in a reproachful tone; "You don't notice if anyone is walking on the side of the road, and suddenly you open the car door, in case you hit someone, you are going to get into trouble."

Xiaoli said; "What's wrong? Who messed with you? Makes you so angry. ”

Fang Wei said; "You suddenly opened the car door and startled me. It was really dangerous just now, if the old man and the old lady came over, they would have to knock them down. Fang Wei said.

Xiaoli said with a smile; "I saw you coming in the mirror, and I just opened the door. A big man, so timid, embarrassed to speak. ”

"How long has it been since I came back, I didn't even have a phone call, and I didn't hear from me, and the work of the unit was done? Have time to come to me? Fang Wei said.

Xiaoli heard what Fang Wei said, and ignored him. She pulled the car into a clearing and said; "What the hell is wrong with you today? With a bitter face and a thorny face. ”

Fang Wei heard the meaning of Xiaoli's words with anger, came back to his senses, and said casually; "I'm in a bad mood when I get into a little trouble at work."

When Xiaoli saw Fang Wei for the first time, she felt that he was in a bad state of mind and had a lot of worries, she was a little worried, and when she heard that he was in a bad mood and there was no big deal, she was relieved and said; "I see, it's not a big deal, right?"

Fang Wei replied; "It's not a big deal, there's no need to make a fuss, it's just a small problem that happens normally at work."

Xiaoli listened to Fang Wei's answer, she turned her words to the main topic and said; "Since there is nothing major, let's get down to business, you called me that day, what's the matter?"

Fang Wei thought that his mother was sick and needed money urgently, so he couldn't open his mouth to Xiaoli, so he could only say vaguely; "It's nothing, I just ask you, when did you come back from a business trip, what are you busy with?"

Xiaoli thought, Fang Wei seemed to have something to say on the phone, but he couldn't say it now, he was a little unhappy in his heart, and he couldn't say it too clearly, so he was entangled for a while and said. "That day, I was so anxious to call, as if I had something to say, and today I said that it was okay, and I was shocked, which made my second monk scratch my head."

Fang Wei couldn't answer Xiaoli, so he could only turn his face and look into the distance without saying a word. Xiaoli was a little anxious, pushed Fang Wei hard, and said; "Usually when you encounter difficulties, it's not like today, what's wrong with you? Tell me, have you encountered a hurdle that you can't overcome? ”

Xiaoli stared at Fang Wei anxiously, as if asking him to say the words hidden in his heart, he also felt it, and hesitated for a long time before speaking; "I was planning to use my break time to start a small business, and I would like to ask you for help. Now my mother suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized, and she was very upset, so she had to put the small business on hold. ”

Xiaoli complained; "Your mother is sick and hospitalized, why don't you tell me about such a big matter, it's been kept secret, you treat me as an outsider, right?"

Fang Wei lowered his head and was silent, his heart was already annoyed, coupled with Xiaoli's chattering questions, he unconsciously said a sentence casually, which made Xiaoli furious, and the two of them almost turned their faces, what did Fang Wei say?
