Yesterday, an old classmate Zhao Xiaofen suddenly called, and the voice sounded much more enthusiastic than in the past. As soon as she opened her mouth, she said, "Hello, old classmate, how are you doing? I would like you to ask for a favor." ”
As soon as I heard this, I chuckled in my heart, and I felt that nothing good was going to happen. But he still replied politely: "Xiaofen, I haven't seen you for a long time, just say something about it." ”
Zhao Xiaofen smiled, with a little embarrassment in her voice: "That, can you help me bring 30 goose eggs back?" ”
I almost didn't laugh out loud when I heard this request. 30 goose eggs? Is this going to have a goose egg party? I asked suspiciously, "Xiaofen, what do you want so many goose eggs for?" I can't finish eating!"
Zhao Xiaofen explained: "Oh, it's not me who eats it myself, it's my mother-in-law who has a custom in their village to use goose eggs to do some ritual." I didn't have time to buy it, so I wondered if you could drop by and bring some back for me. ”
When I heard this, I felt a little uncomfortable. By the way, how can I have so many ways to stop? Besides, this is not an ordinary busy. I was about to refuse, but Zhao Xiaofen hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I won't let you be busy in vain, I will give you money, and invite you to dinner." ”
When I heard this, my heart became even more uncomfortable. I hesitated for a moment and said, "Xiaofen, it's not that I don't want to help you, I've been really busy these past two days, and I don't have time to buy goose eggs." ”
As soon as Zhao Xiaofen heard what I said, her tone changed: "Oh, why are you like this? You don't even want to help with this little favor, are we still old classmates?"
As soon as I heard this, the fire came up. I'm busy? How can I not be busy? But this thing is too outrageous! I couldn't help but retort: "Xiaofen, what you said is not right. It's not that I won't help you, it's that I really don't have time. Besides, you're asking too much, aren't you? 30 goose eggs, you and I run a supermarket?"
When Zhao Xiaofen heard this, she seemed to be even more angry: "How can you say that? Isn't there nothing I can do? If you don't want to, forget it, I won't force you." ”
With that, she hung up the phone. I listened to the beep on the phone, and I felt depressed. How did this old classmate become so unreasonable?
I thought that this matter would be over, but I didn't expect Zhao Xiaofen to call again the next day, and her tone was more enthusiastic than before: "Old classmate, are you still angry with me? Otherwise, I'll give you some extra money, and you can do me a favor. ”
As soon as I heard this, I felt even more that something was wrong. Why does this Zhao Xiaofen seem to be a different person? She wasn't like this before. I hesitated for a moment and said, "Xiaofen, I'm really not a problem with money. I've been really busy these two days, and I don't have time to buy goose eggs. If you really need it, you can buy it online or ask someone else to help you. ”
Zhao Xiaofen heard this, was silent for a while, and then said, "Okay, since you say so, then I won't force you." I'll figure it out myself. ”
With that, she hung up the phone again. I listened to the beep on the phone, and my heart felt relieved. This is finally over.
But what I didn't expect was that Zhao Xiaofen called again on the third day. This time, her tone was particularly anxious: "Old classmate, come and help me! I was deceived by the goose eggs I bought on the Internet, and now I can't find anyone at all." Can you help me go to the countryside and buy some back?
When I heard this, I was speechless. I sighed and said, "Xiaofen, I really can't help you with this." I've got a lot of things to do. You'd better ask someone else for help. ”
After saying this, I hung up the phone without hesitation. This time, I finally got rid of Zhao Xiaofen's entanglement.
Later, I learned that Zhao Xiaofen's mother-in-law didn't have that custom at all, and she wanted to get some goose eggs to do something business. As a result, she was deceived, and she was too embarrassed to tell me the truth, so she made up a reason to ask me to help her. This thing feels outrageous when you think about it, how did I, an old classmate, become so unreliable?
After this incident, I also understood a truth: although friendship is important, you can't help blindly. Sometimes, rejection is also a form of wisdom.
In the next few days, I occasionally remembered Zhao Xiaofen's phone call, and I had mixed feelings. That day, taking a walk in the park of the community, I happened to meet another old classmate, Li Ming. As soon as he saw me, he greeted me warmly: "Hi, old classmate, long time no see!"
I smiled and responded, "yes, time flies." Why are you here?"
Li Ming sat on the bench next to me, sighed and said, "Don't mention it, there have been a lot of things at home recently." Do you know Zhao Xiaofen? She recently asked me for help, saying that she wanted 30 goose eggs, don't you say it's strange?"
As soon as I heard this, I immediately became interested: "She is looking for you too? Didn't she tell you the reason?"
Li Ming shook his head: "No, just say that it is needed at home." I thought something was wrong at the time, but I didn't think much of it. Later, I heard from others that she seemed to have been deceived and bought fake goose eggs. ”
I smiled helplessly: "Yes, I know about this too." She also asked me for help, but I didn't do it. Why do you think this man is so fond of tossing?"
Li Ming sighed: "Who knows? It may be that life is stressful and I want to find something to do." But then again, we old classmates still have to help each other. But it also depends on what is going on, and you can't help blindly. ”
I nodded and said with deep feeling, "Yes, although friendship is important, you can't be blind. Sometimes, rejection is also a form of wisdom. ”
The two of us looked at each other and smiled, as if we had both learned something from this little episode. Life is always full of accidents and surprises, just like Zhao Xiaofen's phone call, although it gave me a headache, it also made me understand the true meaning of friendship better.
However, it also made me think deeply: in our busy lives, should we cherish the friendships that are really worth giving, and how to protect our time and energy while helping others? These questions may have answers in everyone's mind, or maybe they are topics that we need to discuss together.
