Xiao Wang and I were college classmates and have been good friends since our freshman year. The two of us, one studying engineering and the other liberal arts, have very different personalities, but miraculously become confidants. In the four years of college, we were inseparable, and we had nothing to talk about, and we were selfless.
Last week, Xiao Wang suddenly called me to tell me that he was going to send me two boxes of hairy crabs and told me to receive them at home.
"Hey, Lao Liu, I'll send you two boxes of hairy crabs, and I'll be at your house on Thursday afternoon. Remember to receive it at home. ”
I was a little surprised, and quickly said, "Two boxes of hairy crabs? Don't be so polite, I can't afford to accept such a valuable gift. ”
Xiao Wang said with a smile: "The hairy crabs were sent by my colleague from his hometown, and he brought me two boxes, I can't eat so much by myself, so I just share some with you." Don't thank me, we're good brothers. ”
I hesitated for a moment, but said, "I really don't need it, two boxes are too much, and I can't eat so many crabs alone." ”
"Come on, it's my heart for you. You can take it, I have already paid for the shipping, and it will be at your house on Thursday afternoon. Xiao Wang said very persistently.
I looked at the phone in my hand, and I had mixed feelings. I've been having some difficulties lately, I haven't had a party with friends for more than a month, and even Xiao Wang's call has been deliberately avoided. Now Xiao Wang suddenly said that he wanted to give me such a valuable gift, and I felt very ashamed.
On Thursday, I was alone at home and couldn't get up the energy to do anything. The doorbell rang suddenly, and I looked at the monitor, it was the courier delivering to the door.
"Hello, these are two boxes of hairy crabs sent to Mr. Liu, please sign for it. "The courier put two large boxes at the door and asked me to sign for them.
I signed and moved two boxes of crabs into the house. Xiao Wang's message was also posted on the box, "Lao Liu, these two boxes of hairy crabs were airlifted from my hometown by my colleague, and they must be very fresh." You've got to eat it all before I get there!"
I smiled self-deprecatingly, these two boxes of hairy crabs were placed here, but I couldn't muster up the energy to eat them.
After a while, the doorbell rang again. I look at the surveillance, it is Xiao Wang himself standing outside the door!
I hurriedly turned off the doorbell and pretended I wasn't home. Xiao Wang didn't give up, kept ringing the doorbell and dialing my number.
"Lao Liu, I know you're at home, open the door quickly!" Xiao Wang shouted loudly outside the door.
I hesitated, but opened the door.
"Lao Liu, what's wrong with you lately? You don't answer my calls, and you always shirk when we meet. Are you in any trouble?" Xiao Wang looked at me worriedly.
I looked away, overwhelmed, and said, "No, it's just that I've been busy lately, and I have something to do at work." ”
"Come on, we've known each other for so many years, do you think I can't see that you're pretending to be sick? Xiao Wang pulled me over and sat on the sofa, with a posture that I wouldn't leave if you didn't make it clear.
I sighed, but decided to tell the truth: "Actually, it's because I've been in a little financial trouble recently, I haven't been to a party for more than a month, and I don't want to see my friends, I feel shameless." ”
"What?" Xiao Wang's eyes widened, "Just because of this? Why didn't you say it earlier, our brotherhood for many years is just such a thing? You don't take me too seriously!"
Xiao Wang saw that I looked depressed, and his tone softened: "Forget it, don't blame yourself." Actually, I can understand your difficulties. The most important thing for us to be friends is to trust each other, and if we have difficulties, we will speak out, so why hide them?"
I nodded and gave him a grateful look.
"Alright, I'm here today to see what's wrong with you. Now that we've talked about it, let's stop thinking about anything else, let's have a good meal!" Xiao Wang patted me on the shoulder and stood up.
"I'm here today to taste the authenticity of this hairy crab, so don't shirk it. I flew it in!" Xiao Wang's voice came from the kitchen.
Looking at his busy figure, my eyes suddenly moistened a little. I'm so lucky to have such a close friend.
We opened the red wine brought by Xiao Wang and chatted while peeling crabs. The haze of many days seems to have dissipated, replaced by a long-lost warmth.
"Lao Liu, in fact, there will always be ups and downs in life, and it is important to remain optimistic and courageous. As long as you have friends with you, any difficulties will pass. Xiao Wang raised his glass and touched it with me.
"yes, I was so autistic before, I alienated my most important friends. Thank you for supporting me as always. I raised my glass and clinked glasses with him.
The two of them were eating hairy crabs, chatting about the topic of Tiannan and Haibei, and gradually drank their wine glasses. In the dead of night, Xiao Wang got up to say goodbye.
I sent Xiao Wang to the door and apologized to him again.
"Xiao Wang, I'm really sorry, I've been too autistic and alienated my friends during this time. Thank you for your continued support. ”
"Okay, Lao Liu, don't keep saying I'm sorry. We have been brothers for so many years, this little thing is nothing, just tell me if there are any difficulties in the future. Xiao Wang patted me on the shoulder.
I nodded: "I know, I will tell you if I encounter any difficulties in the future, and I won't hide it by myself anymore." ”
"Yes, always remember that friends are there to help you get through this. You can talk to me more, don't always carry it alone. Xiao Wang's tone was full of concern.
"Okay, I will. In the future, we will gather more and disperse less, and cherish our friendship. I said solemnly.
"Long live friendship!" Xiao Wang smiled and high-fived me.
As I watched Xiao Wang leave, a sense of relief and warmth rose in my heart. This is the way friends should get along, trust each other, and talk about everything.
I decided to get back into my life and no longer hold back because of the difficulties. I began to reach out to old friends and have a good time with them, all of which revolved around the moments of our youth. With them, I felt like I was back to my carefree school days.
I also started to work actively and try to earn money to pay off my debts. My colleagues in the office also encouraged me to regain my old spirit.
Everything is slowly getting back on track, and I'm rekindling hope for life. This is all thanks to Xiao Wang's support and encouragement to me. Some friends, through the test of time and difficulty, will become more valuable.
One day, Xiao Wang called again and said that he wanted to invite me to dinner.
"Lao Liu, I heard that you have been in good shape recently, it seems that my 'therapy' is very effective, isn't it?" Xiao Wang's tone was full of smiles.
"Haha, yes, it's all thanks to your hairy crab therapy, I'm refreshed now, and everything is getting better. I jokingly said.
"That's good, it seems that my hairy crab therapy is very reliable! Xiao Wang's tone was full of relief.
"Haha, I said it was your credit. I'm really grateful for your 'raid treatment' that day, which made me realize that I shouldn't be avoiding my friends because of difficulties. I say from the bottom of my heart.
"Okay bro, that's what I'm supposed to do. Don't always thank me, let's get together more often, this is the biggest reward for me. ”
In the future, we will meet often, talk about the old days, and make up for all the meetings that should be made up. "I solemnly promise.
"Great! I can't wait. By the way, I ordered your favorite grilled fish tonight, so let's celebrate!" Xiao Wang's tone was full of excitement.
"Grilled fish! I'm already drooling! Haha, I promise to go tonight. I said happily.
"Okay, I'll pick you up at seven o'clock that night, don't be late!"
"Got it, got it, I'm going to start preparing now. Hehe, thank you again, Lao Wang. ”
"Okay, don't thank me, that's how my brother should be. Hang up, see you in the evening!"
I got ready with joy, my heart filled with gratitude. Some friends, after the test of time and difficulty, the relationship will deepen. I am so lucky to have such a close friend as Xiao Wang.
In the evening, I put on my most formal clothes and waited at the door ten minutes earlier. Xiao Wang drove his new car to pick me up, and we happily went to the grilled fish restaurant we used to frequent.
The shop was bustling with activity, and the familiar smell made me feel like I was coming home. We ordered a variety of food and drinks, ate and chatted, and the topics all revolved around our friendship.
"Do you remember when we were sophomores, we climbed the hill behind the campus to see the sunrise? Xiao Wang talked about the past, and his eyes were full of nostalgia.
"Haha, I remember that we searched for the road all night but couldn't find it, and finally an old farmer at the bottom of the mountain pointed us in the direction, and we went down the mountain smoothly. "I also relished it.
"yes, we swore that we wouldn't do anything so recklessly. But in the blink of an eye, I went to climb the mountain a few more times, and each time I got lost. We just can't get rid of the problem of taking risks. When Xiao Wang said this, both of them laughed.
"But it was also a good memory, although the process was difficult, but every time I saw the sunrise, I felt extremely shocked and worthwhile. I said with emotion.
"Yes, I can still remember the view at sunrise every time, the golden sun shining through the clouds, the fog on the top of the mountain, we hugged each other and watched the sun rise, what a wonderful time. Xiao Wang also recalled intoxicated.
"Yes, I really miss that carefree time, and the greatest joy of every day is to adventure with you and explore the unknown world. Now that I think about it, it was the best time of my life. ”
"But people have to grow up and take on more responsibilities, don't they? But friendship lasts forever, and I will still support you when you encounter difficulties this time." Xiao Wang patted me on the shoulder.
"Yes, I am so grateful for your support to me. No matter what happens in the future, we will rely on each other tightly. I say sincerely.
"That's right, let's clink glasses again, and salute our eternal friendship!"
"Cheers!"
We laughed and clinked glasses and toasted the longevity of our friendship. This meal made me extremely warm and satisfied. With Xiao Wang, a close friend, I am no longer afraid of any difficulties in life.
After eating, Xiao Wang drove me home. I invited him upstairs to sit down, and we opened another bottle of red wine and continued to talk.
"Lao Liu, I'm really happy tonight. You've been avoiding me all this time, and I thought there was a rift in our friendship. Now it seems that it was just a small misunderstanding, which made me realize the value of friendship again. Xiao Wang's tone was full of emotion.
"I'm glad I was able to talk to you so much tonight. Thank you for your continued support, it's really important to me. I say from the bottom of my heart.
We chatted for a while, and Xiao Wang saw that the time was not early, and was ready to leave. Sending him to the door, I once again expressed my gratitude and promised to cherish our friendship and not let the difficulties of life block the connection between us again.
"Lao Liu, no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, don't carry it alone, tell me in time. Xiao Wang told again.
"In this way, I can rest assured! Gone Lao Liu, take care! There is time to continue to gather!" Xiao Wang beckoned and drove away.
As I watched his car disappear into the night, I exhaled with ease and felt like my life was finally back on track.
I smiled and gave a thumbs up in return. With such a dear friend as Xiao Wang, I feel that I am the luckiest person in the world.
Since then, Xiao Wang and I have started to keep in touch frequently, meeting at least once a week and talking about everything. I told him about my recent life and work, and I listened to him share all kinds of observations. The time I spent with Xiao Wang was the happiest for me.
At one party, Xiao Wang suddenly said to me mysteriously: "Lao Liu, I have a big plan, but I need your help." You have to keep it a secret!"
I guessed his plan: "Could it be that you're proposing?
Actually, I plan to start a business, open our own company, and realize our dreams!" Xiao Wang said excitedly.
"Entrepreneurship?" I was a little surprised, but immediately excited and proud of Xiao Wang, "This is a great idea! What do you need me to do, just ask!"
"I knew I could count on you! I'm going to start a travel startup and organize all kinds of adventure trips. When the time comes, you're going to join me and run the company with me!"
"Okay, I'll do my best!" We high-fived and celebrated, looking forward to a bright future.
