I was so speechless that I invited my relatives to dinner, but I didn't expect her to bring 10 strangers and order 12 of the most expensive dishes.
This time I feel like I'm doing the right thing.
My cousin is 10 years older than me, she went to Shenzhen to work five years ago, and she has been there for five years, and she has not come back once in five years.
When I was a child, I loved to play with her, and I ran behind her every day.
But as we get older, we no longer have the simple friendship that we had when we were children. The older we get, the less we have a common language, and she often says: You are really too naïve and ignorant.
5 years ago, after she went to Shenzhen, we had less contact, only occasionally like it in the circle of friends.
A few days before New Year's Day, she suddenly sent me a message: Little sister, I'm going back on New Year's Day, and you have to invite me to dinner then.
It's just a meal, no problem, after all, it's a cousin who hasn't seen each other for so many years.
So, I said yes very simply.
I learned that it was a Tuesday for her to come home, so I asked her to meet the two of us on Thursday.
On Thursday, I called early in the morning and booked a more upscale restaurant in advance to ask them to reserve two seats for me.
The food in this restaurant is very good, and the price is reasonable, which is the best way I can welcome my cousin.
I arrived at the hotel at 5 p.m. and sent her the location.
But what I didn't expect was that she brought 10, 4 boys, 6 girls, and I didn't know any of them.
My cousin was like a host, she asked the waiter to change a private room, the private room could only seat 10 people, and we had 13 people, and she asked the waiter to add three benches to one side.
After sitting down, my cousin began to introduce me and said: Little sister, these are my classmates, we just came out of KTV, I brought them with me, don't you mind?
Me: It's okay, since it's your friend and my friend, multiple friends and multiple paths.
I replied to her with a smile but no smile.
Cousin: Don't mind, let's start ordering.
My cousin asked the waiter to bring her the menu, but she didn't expect her to ask each of her 10 classmates to order one, and they all ordered the most expensive dishes in the restaurant.
My cousin hasn't ordered it yet, so let me order it first, and I ordered a 12 yuan vegetarian dish.
Then she ordered two of them herself.
Her classmates laughed at me, saying that I was an old-fashioned profuse, and I would order vegetables and leaves to eat when I came out to eat.
I went in and out of my left ear and out of my right ear, laughing and not saying a word, because I don't like to talk to people for a while.
After more than half an hour, the dishes were all served, and the table was full of good dishes, and I didn't have a chopstick.
They're eating big.
I asked the waiter for a bowl of rice and ate it with the same plate of vegetarian dishes I ordered.
I divided five by two, and in less than 10 minutes, I ate not a single grain of rice.
As soon as the dishes and chopsticks were put down, I stood up with a "rub": I'm sorry, everyone, please enjoy your food, I still have some urgent matters to deal with, I will pay for the dishes I ordered before leaving, and the rest of you please deal with it yourself.
When my cousin heard what I said, she immediately retorted: What do you mean, this is just the beginning of eating? If you want to leave, you have to buy the order before you leave.
Me: I asked you, but I don't know who they are, I'm just honest, but I'm not stupid.
I carried my bag and strode out of the private room, I found the waiter and asked her to help me buy the vegetarian dishes I ordered.
So I told the waiter that the people in the private room asked me to add 5 dishes, and the more expensive the better. I will find a yellow head (my cousin has yellow hair) and send that girl to pay.
When I walked outside the hotel, I felt more relaxed than ever.
There is a saying that suffering is a blessing, but I will not swallow this dumb loss.
Today is obviously my treat, according to the rules, guests can not bring guests, let alone dominate.
I didn't expect my cousin to take both.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, my cousin called, I hung up, she sent a message, saying that I was not authentic, I gave her a pit, I really regretted letting me invite her to dinner, and I wanted me to compensate her for more than 1,800 yuan for the meal.
I clenched my hands and almost pulled her into the blacklist, and left the phone aside and ignored it.
Do you think I'm doing the right thing?
