A pair of men and women who have not seen each other in 20 years meet unexpectedly on the street, they say a few words of greeting, and the woman points to a restaurant and asks the man, can you invite her to dinner? He couldn't afford that restaurant, but he could send it next

A pair of men and women who have not seen each other in 20 years meet unexpectedly on the street, they say a few words of greeting, and the woman points to a restaurant and asks the man, can you invite her to dinner? He couldn't afford that restaurant, but what happened next made him break out in a cold sweat...

Men and women met on the street, had not seen each other for more than twenty years, and although they were just ordinary friends, they still recognized each other.

It was the meal, and after a few small talks, the woman unceremoniously pointed to a restaurant on the side of the road and asked if the man could invite her to lunch?

It is reasonable to say that it is right to invite each other to a meal after a long time of reunion, but the man is very embarrassed because he is shy, and this restaurant is not something he can afford.

The broken silver in his pocket was only enough to support the expenses before the end of the month, but he could not open his mouth of refusal no matter what, so where would his face be? He hardened his scalp and entered the restaurant.

In the face of the menu, he was shocked and bitter, and the price of the dishes was not generally expensive, completely beyond his financial ability.

But a sentence from the woman made him breathe a sigh of relief: "I eat very little at noon, I only eat one dish, is there salmon?" ”

It seems that it is not the season for salmon, and there is no such dish on the menu, but the man or gentleman asks the waiter if he has this dish?

The waiter said that it was too coincidental, their restaurant purchased a good salmon for the first time this year, and waited for its relatives, and the man generously ordered a copy for the woman.

While waiting for the dish, the waiter saw them sitting dry and asked if they wanted to eat something else first.

Without waiting for the man to speak, the woman smiled and said that she would only eat one dish at noon, unless there was caviar in the restaurant, which she could not resist.

The man's heart "clucked", without looking at the menu, he also knew that the price of caviar was not cheap, he also loved to eat, but he usually did not dare to think, the matter has come to this point, can only pretend to be relaxed to order a woman, he ordered himself a cheapest steak.

The woman looked at his steak and said, "You have eaten such a greasy thing and the stomach burden is too heavy, how can you work in the afternoon?"

At this time, the annoying waiter came over and asked for something to drink? The woman said she never drank at lunch, and the man was so relieved that he said he didn't drink either.

"Oh, yes, I don't mind drinking a little white wine, you see you eat a little greasy, French white wine helps digestion." The woman said something carelessly.

The man's palms began to sweat, but he still punched the swollen face and filled the fat, called the woman wine, lied that the doctor told him to avoid wine, and asked for a glass of white water.

Women eat caviar, salmon, with white wine, eyebrows flying and dancing with men to talk about literature and music, and the man has been deaf, barely squeezed out a bitter smile to cope, he tastes the same chewing wax, thinking about how much this meal will cost?

The steak ordered by the man was brought to the table, and the woman pointed to the man and said: "I see that you are used to eating more and greasy at noon, you should learn from me, only eat one dish, less and fine, eat only a little, so that it is good for your health." I couldn't eat anything, except for the big dragon whisker dish, and if I didn't taste it, this trip to Paris would leave me with regrets. ”

The man heard his heartbroken voice, had not eaten pork, and had not seen a pig run? He knew it was mouth-watering and expensive, but he hadn't been willing to eat it once.

His heart turned upside down, but he pretended to be indifferent and asked the waiter if he had any dragon whiskers? He wished the waiter said no and saved him the money.

As a result, the waiter happily said that they had just eaten some large and tender dragon's whiskers. His forehead began to sweat, now it is not a matter of how much money he can leave after this meal to support the next month's salary, but the list of this meal, can he buy it in the end?

The woman asked him if he wanted to come with a dragon's whisker dish as well? He lied that he was allergic to eating dragon's whiskers. The woman said that maybe his diet was consistently greasy and spoiled his stomach.

While waiting for the dish, he was restless, and there was not enough money to do it? Saying that nothing can make a woman see her embarrassment, let alone turn to her, such a shameful thing, he can't do it.

When he didn't pay the bill, he touched his pocket, and then he was shocked and said, it's over, the wallet was stolen by the thief, but this is too fake, right? Such an embarrassing thing, killing him can't do it.

If there is no way, you can only mortgage your watch in the restaurant, pay a salary and redeem it.

Just thinking, the dragon's whisker dish was on the table, and the creamy aroma on the dish burrowed into the man's nostrils, and he swallowed the saliva and watched the woman eat regardless of the image.

After the woman finished eating. The man politely asked her, do you want a cup of coffee? The woman said ok, ice cream plus coffee. The man cursed himself in his heart.

While sipping coffee, the woman said: When a person eats, he must only eat eight points full.

The man asked bloodlessly if she was still hungry?

"Don't be hungry, you see I eat very little at noon, and I only eat one dish at most for lunch. You shouldn't eat too much in the future. ”

The British novelist Maugham, with his ironic humor, depicts for us an insatiable woman and a man who wants to face the guilt, because of a meal, the two kinds of humanity are vividly displayed.

Twenty years of general friendship, women have seized a wronged head to pay for their own appetites, and men are reluctant to hold on for the sake of insignificant face.

Greedy, cheeky women, and men who are disrespectful and fat, in them, we will also see our own shadow in life.

Grasp the sense of boundaries between good people and people, do not go greedy, greedy and cheap to eat big losses, for those useless social, know how to refuse, do not waste their time and money, is the way smart people deal with people.

Che Guevara said: "When you know that face is the least important thing, you really grow up." Li Ka-shing has a saying: When you put down your face and make money, it means that you have understood things. When you use money to earn back face, it means that you have succeeded. When you can make money with face, it means that you are already a character.
