The rich-flavored milky white chocolate lies quietly in the palm of your hand, and its sweet taste penetrates your nose.
"You, how come you don't know what modesty is, woman?!" The woman with peach blossom eyes held the chocolate in her palm, her hand shaking as if she was holding a bomb.
In the dim light in the corridor, Hua Jin noticed that the other person's cheeks and ears were a little red. She had only said a few words, and her face and ears were red with anger? It's not good for an adult to lose his temper like this.
Fearing that the other party might suddenly attack and hurt someone, Hua Jin leaned his upper body back, and while the other party had not yet reacted, he took a few quick steps downwards and was about to walk out of the safety passage.
"etc!"
Hua Jin hesitated for a second between the two options of continuing to walk or turning back, then turned her head to look at the peach blossom eyes that called her: "Excuse me, is there anything else?"
"Is the chocolate expired?" The man with peach blossom eyes turned his head and looked at the wall. Standing against the light, he looked a bit like an aristocrat in an oil painting, handsome and exquisite but out of tune with ordinary people.
Hua Jin blinked: "Newly bought, not expired."
He stared at her with his peach blossom eyes for a long while, took a bite and put it in his mouth, with a look of disgust on his face: "It's sweet and greasy, it tastes bad."
After saying that, he was ready to throw it away, but he turned around and looked for a long time, but he couldn't find the trash can, and his face suddenly became ugly. He looked at Hua Jin dimly, and Hua Jin continued to move towards the exit.
Be careful when flirting, as being naughty can easily get you into trouble.
It was all because the other person was too good-looking, which made her make the same mistake that many people make.
"Mr. Pei, why are you here?" A slightly fat man stood at the second-floor emergency passage. Even in March or April, his forehead was covered in sweat. When he saw the peach blossom eyes standing at the door, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately you are not in the elevator. There was a problem with the elevator on the second floor just now. Mr. Yang Shao was trapped in the elevator and the staff are urgently repairing it." The slightly fat man saw that Mr. Pei looked unhappy and thought that he had taken the wrong way in the hospital, so he was in a bad mood, so he said: "Mr. Chen's ward is on the eighth floor, please follow me."
"Do you have tissues?" Pei Yan asked.
"Ah?" The slightly fat man was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, I was in a hurry to get down here just now and forgot to bring it with me."
"Forget it." Mr. Pei took out a handkerchief from his suit pocket, wrapped the chocolate in his hand, and put it in his pocket.
"What are you doing?" The slightly fat man looked at all this in confusion. Was the chocolate left over after eating just now wrapped in a handkerchief? It was said that Mr. Pei spent money like water, and many people liked to find him to invest. In the past two years, many people privately liked to call him a sucker. Who knew that this man was so lucky that more than half of the things he invested in made money, which surprised many people.
I didn't expect that Mr. Pei, who was rumored to spend money like water, was such a frugal person that he even wrapped up the leftover chocolate. It turns out that the richer people are, the more stingy they are. He couldn't even bear to throw away half a piece of chocolate.
"Let's go." Mr. Pei turned his head to look at Hua Jin who was standing below, smiled and waved at him slightly, then slipped out of the passage.
"Mr. Pei?" The slightly plump man took a few steps and found that the other person was not catching up with him. He wondered if he had done something wrong, so he stopped and looked at the other person uneasily.
"You said... a woman who was walking by the lake with a melancholy expression, red eyes and looked like she was going to commit suicide, why did she suddenly come to the hospital?" Mr. Pei suddenly asked.
"Maybe he got seriously ill and had financial difficulties?" The slightly fat man thought for a moment and added, "Life is stressful nowadays, there's nothing we can do about it."
Mr. Pei thought that since the woman was still in the mood to tease him, she should not be so desperate as to commit suicide.
"A few years ago, a colleague of mine committed suicide without warning. He looked cheerful and normal. After he passed away, we found out that his parents had passed away, and his wife also died in an accident not long after." He shook his head and sighed, and extended his hand to invite Mr. Pei into the elevator. "No one could see that he had encountered so many unfortunate things. If we could have discovered it earlier and cared more about him, maybe it wouldn't have come to that."
After saying this, the slightly plump man realized that he had said too much. He turned around and saw that Mr. Pei did not look strange, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Hua Jin did not go to the store, but went home to sleep for the whole afternoon. When she woke up, it was already dark outside. She got up and made herself a bowl of noodles. She opened her phone and just browsed the web for a while when she received a transfer from Yang Lin.
The transfer amount was 1200. After staring at the number for a while, she smiled and said thank you to the other party.
Yang Lin: You’re welcome. I found out today that I’m pregnant, so I’m sending you a red envelope to celebrate the occasion.
Hua Jin smiled silently and replied: Thank you.
Yang Lin: I remember that you seemed to like to take advantage of the good fortune back then. Once, a newlywed couple held a wedding banquet and gave us waiters a wedding hall. You happily ate all the candy, saying that this would allow you to share in the good fortune.
Hua Jin put down her phone, ate up the noodles that were already a little mushy, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. This house was too old, and if the used dishes were not washed immediately, they would easily attract bugs.
After cleaning up the house, she posted a few photos of her finished embroidery on Weibo. She doesn't have many fans on Weibo, and occasionally one or two people will like or comment on her posts, but most of the time she just entertains herself.
Two days later, when Hua Jin finished the embroidery of the carp, she received a text message.
"Thank you, Miss Hua Jin. My relative passed away today. She really liked the quilt you embroidered. Thank you."
Seeing this message, Hua Jin felt a little uncomfortable in her throat. She stood up and poured a glass of water. She took a few gulps to suppress the feeling. Through the transparent window, she looked at the passers-by outside the store and took a few deep breaths.
"Wow, I didn't expect embroidered bags could be so beautiful."
Hua Jin looked at the door, and a man and a woman walked in. The girl who was talking was wearing a corset skirt and a scarf around her neck. When she smiled, the corners of her eyes curved slightly, and she looked pretty and playful.
She saw Hua Jin and pointed to the bag on the shelf: "Can you show me this bag?"
"Sure." Hua Jin took the bag off and handed it to the female customer.
The female customer held the bag in her hand and looked at herself in the mirror several times: "This bag is so beautiful. What's the pattern on it? It's so gorgeously embroidered yet not tacky at all. It's really rare."
"The patterns on it are mainly peach, lotus, and bat patterns. The full name of the embroidery is "Fu Shou Lian Nian". It not only has a good meaning, but is also very beautiful and gorgeous." Hua Jin glanced at the other person's fair skin. "But for a beauty like you with fair skin and bright looks, any bag you carry can only be regarded as an embellishment."
The female customer was very happy to hear this, and couldn't help but pick out a shawl and a lacquered jewelry box in the store before leaving with a smile on her face. Before leaving, she heard that Hua Jin could also make other embroidery products, and took the initiative to add her WeChat.
No one can resist beautiful things, it is nature.
The man used the dragon and phoenix quilt that his wife had gently touched when she was alive to gently wrap the urn. Countless people told him that even if he went to a hospital in a big city, it would just be a waste of money, and even his wife herself didn't want to come.
If you come for treatment, there is still a glimmer of hope. If you don’t come, you can only wait to die.
He has been married to his wife for more than 20 years, and it is already incompetent that he has never let her enjoy any good things. How can he let her endure the pain day and night and wait for death just to save money?
At least there were painkillers and pain-relieving injections in the hospital, at least she was allowed to visit the most prosperous city, and there was also the dragon and phoenix quilt he had promised her for many years.
"Brother, please accept my condolences." The young man who sent him to the station claimed to be someone from the Internet. He heard from somewhere that his wife was ill and insisted on donating money. After seeing that he refused to accept the money, he came to visit him frequently. This time, he even helped him buy a high-speed train ticket using his mobile phone.
The man shook his head and hugged the box tightly in his arms: "It's good this way, she doesn't have to suffer anymore."
The young man looked at the man's weathered face, his expression full of emotion: "Can I tell other people the story of you and your wife?"
"What stories can people like us have?" The man's face was tired and sad, but his eyes were bright. Bringing his wife home was the only thing that kept him going.
"You have spent all your family wealth on your wife, and you only eat steamed buns and drink boiled water every day. If other people knew about this, many people would be moved."
"What's so touching about this? We are husband and wife, shouldn't we take care of each other?" The man gently wiped the surface of the box, even though it was spotlessly clean. "We are a couple, and we will spend our lives together. What's there to say about being good to your own people?"
"Although the hospitalization costs a bit more, the medical insurance can still reimburse part of it. If I work for a few more years, I can pay off the debt. The house at home has not been sold yet, so it can't be said that I have exhausted my family's wealth."
The man left with his wife's ashes. The young man looked at his slightly hunched back with mixed feelings.
That night, he went home, wrote down the story, and posted it on Weibo.
When he wrote this story, he told it in a straightforward manner, without any sensationalism or deliberate exaggeration, because the whole story itself is a kind of emotion.
In real life, he is a fairly successful white-collar worker, and on the Internet he is an emotional blogger with hundreds of thousands of fans. After this Weibo post was posted, it attracted a lot of reposts and discussions.
Every character in this story is cute and warm.
The poor man who spent all his money on his wife, the husband who had no money left but felt that he could not take money for free, the doctors and nurses who took care of the couple, the blogger who wanted to help the couple, and the embroidery shop owner who stayed up late to embroider dragon and phoenix quilts but did not charge much.
Some netizens said that this is not a love story, but a somewhat sad and touching story of human warmth.
The author has something to say: Mr. Pei’s class is open: Children are not allowed to litter~
