"I heard you say that when people help you, you always treat them to dinner in return?"

Xu Rong shoveled a shovel of soil from the truck, put it into the recess in front of the door, and patted it with the shovel a few times. If it hadn't been put on the ground, water would accumulate if it rained, and it might be inconvenient for Grandpa to go out.

Hearing his grandfather's words, he picked up the shovel, smoothed his sleeves, looked at his grandfather's kind face, and nodded with satisfaction. Outside, he would definitely not show such an expression, but at home, in front of the old man, he

There is no need to hide your inner thoughts.

But grandpa shook his head and said earnestly: "That's wrong. If you invite someone to dinner, you should do so. But don't think that inviting someone to dinner is repaying a favor. How can a favor be repaid with a meal?"

Seeing Xu Rong's puzzled expression, the old man continued: "People deal with people, not just buy things. If you give me one dollar, I will give you four steamed buns, two clear. Besides, what kind of money do you need?"

A meal or your little gift?"

Xu Rong frowned in confusion. For the first time, he was confused about interpersonal communication. This was a bit different from his past understanding.

The old man trampled the earth on the porcelain and continued: "No matter how good the meal is, everyone can afford it. It's not less than your one or two meals. When people help you, they think that you can help them later."

If you want to eat, you have to repay the favor, and you have to pay it back to the bigger one. If someone helps you, you have to pay back two points. Owing people a favor is not a bad thing. You can't think about it, hey, I finally paid back the favor.

Yes, it’s just a worry, it’s wrong, and you can’t make friends.”

"People are willing to help you because they have taken a fancy to you. The person who helps you will never help you just because he wants to eat from you. Asking for help is actually the beginning of a relationship. This time he helped you.

If you give him two points next time, you think he owes you a favor, but that’s not the case. It comes and goes, because next time, he will help you three points."

"Just like the last time you went to Hunan Province to ask for help, you called me and told me that you felt embarrassed, but in fact I felt very good. Face is not saved, but earned. The same is true for favors.

, you don’t owe favors, and people don’t owe you favors, so you won’t be able to deal with them. The more favors you owe, the wider the path will be.”

Seeing that Xu Rongruo had realized something, the old man smiled and said, "I didn't tell you this before because you didn't understand and there was no need. But what you did recently is wrong. You can't do it the way you did before. You have to change it."

Xu Rong seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand very well. He had to think about it carefully. This statement seemed a bit profound.

His residence was moved from the main room to the three newly built east rooms, and the main room was left to two old people.

All the furniture was newly purchased, and it was obvious that the second grandfather and his family had put a lot of thought into it.

During the five days at home, he was not idle. He could see it. The old man had been frugal all his life. Even though he was now more prosperous, he was still reluctant to spend money. The food was still the same as before, noodles and some vegetables.

With the pickles you pickled yourself, it's a meal.

He added a refrigerator and a large color TV, bought some supplements and a basket of eggs.

The elderly love to watch the news, especially at seven o'clock in the evening, every day.

As for the refrigerator, he bought it because he was worried that the old man wouldn't be able to finish the eggs in a short while and would spoil them over time.

"Brother, I heard someone said that going to college doesn't have to be as hard as high school?" Xu Xing looked at Xu Rong, still feeling dreamy.

A few days ago, within half an hour of Xu Rong's arrival, a group of reporters came to the house. I heard that there was also a county leader who was with him. Unlike the rumors, this cousin was not swollen or swollen as the outside rumors said.

Well, probably because the reporters in his hometown asked relatively mild questions, he answered them all with a smile, and in the end he even invited them to have a meal at home.

Xu Rong picked up the eggs into the refrigerator, glanced at Xu Xing who was helping, and said, "It depends on yourself. If you want to study, it's not much more leisurely than high school. Which school did you apply for?"

He was still not used to this little sister suddenly popping out from the corner of the corner.

He had heard his grandfather mention it before that although Xu Xing was only half a year younger than him, he had just taken the college entrance examination this year, but he was not interested in it, so he didn't ask much.

Xu Xing smiled, puffed up his chest, and said, "I'm in the same school as you."

"It's pretty awesome. What's your major?"

"Same as you." Xu Xing handed the box to Xu Rong and said, "Brother, do you really have to call me senior brother when you get to school? It feels so weird?"

Xu Rong completely understood the reason now. No wonder, he was waiting here, but he hadn't brought Xiao Zhang with him yet. Not to mention that this sister is not a close sister, she is a biological sister... It's hard to say, after all, she is a younger sister.

, on one side is a girlfriend.

He took the box, put it away, picked up the eggs again, and said, "No, that's just what the outside world says, just call me senior."

The two old men listened to their chat and only smiled but said nothing.

As for matchmaking, he didn't even think about it. The old man heard Xu Rong say that he had a girlfriend at school. He knew that he was independent and knew what he wanted, so he didn't ask about it.

Moreover, the old man could also see that the two of them were not suitable for each other. Their personalities were too similar, which was not good for them.

No matter how harmonious they get along, Tu Qiongdagger will eventually appear. At Xu Rong's last lunch before leaving home, grandpa finally spoke: "You are out here alone, can you take care of yourself?"

As soon as the words came out, although Second Grandpa and Xu Xing also lowered their heads, their movements immediately became extremely slight, as if they were standing on a balance beam, even breathing softly.

Xu Rong paused while eating, raised her head, and looked at each other with her grandfather, and they both laughed at the same time.

He understood what the old man meant, and he had some specific ideas in mind.

The words have to be said after all, otherwise people wouldn't come here to build houses and maintain relationships. But if it was said by an old man, there is still room for change.

Xu Rong lowered his head and thought for a while, then glanced at the second grandfather's faint smile and said, "I'm already a grown man, so why can't I take care of myself?"

Seeing the second grandfather, he wanted to talk, and he added: "But speaking of it, there is really a lack of someone close to me. I am alone outside, and I am not familiar with the place after all."

At this point, he stopped talking.

The second grandfather slowly put down his chopsticks, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped his mouth. He took over the conversation and said with a smile: "Isn't that good? Let your sister follow you, and so will your grandpa and I."

Don’t worry, they are all family members, and there is someone taking care of them outside.”

Xu Rong smiled and glanced at Xu Xing, who was secretly looking at him. His face became more serious and said: "Second Grandpa, I won't hide it from you. In fact, even though I am a reporter and a leader, in fact I am not that capable right now.

, I can’t arrange anything, but speaking of which, I happen to be short of an assistant right now.”

Seeing that the two old men looked puzzled, he explained: "It can be understood that taking care of my work, of course, is also very tiring in life. My previous assistant got up at around four o'clock every day and went to bed after twelve o'clock at night.

After two months, I was as tired as a panda, and I also lost a lot of weight."

Seeing the obvious disappointment on Xu Xing's face, Xu Rong smiled and lowered his head and continued eating.

There is no free lunch in this world.

Moreover, the most difficult thing to overcome is desire. He could indeed owe her a favor once, but he would not cherish what was easily obtained.

Furthermore, as Chen Dong said at the beginning, why?

The two old men were silent at the same time. The grandfather looked indifferent and lowered his head to eat. Only the second grandfather thought for a while and then said: "Xu Xing has never experienced this at home..."

"I do."

Xu Rong sucked a piece of slender stick into his mouth, swallowed it, then gently raised his head and looked at this sister carefully.

Xu Xingneng was admitted to Nortel. Needless to say, he looks good. He has an oval face and eyes very similar to Aunt Xu’s. Both have double eyelids. The bridge of his nose is high and very three-dimensional.

But these are not what he cares about, what he cares about is her determination. Since Xu Xing was admitted to Nortel, he naturally knows nothing about the assistant industry.

But being able to make a decision in just a few seconds shows the determination of this girl.

From her clothes, Xu Rong could tell that her family background must be quite good. A girl who has been pampered since she was a child can be ruthless enough to work as an assistant. She is not an ordinary person.

In most people's understanding, being an assistant is a job that involves a lot of work, little money, and a lot of noise.

But in fact it is not that simple. In the process of helping artists deal with relationships, she will get to know many people, especially directors, producers, and businessmen. For their sake, it is no problem to become familiar with them. Many people

Brokers are all from this industry.

As for the follow-up, it all depends on her performance. If she is down-to-earth and diligent, he won't mind helping her win a few roles, but if it's just impulsive, it will be difficult to achieve anything even after graduation.

But he didn't want Assistant Xu Xing to regret running away after working for two days, so he turned around and asked: "You have to think carefully, assistant work is not an easy job, and it will also delay your studies."

"I've thought about it, I'll be your assistant." Seeing his grandfather's unhappy expression, Xu Xing nodded heavily, then suddenly smiled and said: "Brother, don't you still have me studying? I heard that you get a scholarship every year.

of."

Xu Rong nodded and said, "Okay, I'll clean up later and come with me."

"Ah, you're leaving soon?" Xu Xing opened his mouth, but he didn't react much. Was it too fast?

Xu Rongdao: "Yes, I will join the group in two days. I will be busy until the end of the year. School has started. I will just go and register and get the books."

He can take care of school affairs, and those questions are not in vain. Although at school, the teachers rush to see him faster than the other, but during the New Year's Day, he will sit down one by one with gifts.

sit.
