Astronaut Jiang Xinlin's parents politely refused to be free of charge from the hotel: We have to pay for this meal!
Ladies and gentlemen, today let's talk about a news that is both heartwarming and a little humorous. It is said that when astronaut Jiang Xinlin's parents were dining in a restaurant, the restaurant decided to give them a free order out of respect and gratitude. And guess what? The second elder refused the kindness and insisted on paying the bill himself. As soon as this matter spread, it immediately caused heated discussions on the Internet.
Let's talk about this Jiang Xinlin astronaut first, that is the pride of our country, flying into space again and again, and making great contributions to the motherland's aerospace industry. His parents, as the astronaut's family members, are naturally also in the spotlight. This time, the two elders went to the restaurant for dinner, and when the restaurant took a look, they said, "Oh, isn't this the astronaut's parents?" So they decided to give them a free order to express their respect and gratitude.
However, the second elder is not the kind of person who takes advantage of small advantages. As soon as they heard that the store wanted to be exempted, they immediately became anxious and said, "This is unacceptable, we have to pay for dinner, and we can't eat your food for nothing." The shopkeeper persuaded him again and again, but the second elder just refused to let go. In the end, the store had no choice but to charge the original price.
After this matter was spread on the Internet, netizens praised it one after another. Someone said: "These two elders are really principled and backbone, and they are worthy of being the family members of astronauts." Someone else said: "This store is also well-intentioned, but the second elder's approach is even more admirable." ”
In fact, although this thing seems to be a bit of a fuss, it reflects the positive energy of our society behind it. Astronaut Jiang Xinlin has won glory for the country, and his parents have also transmitted positive energy with their actions. Although they are old, they are young in mind, open-minded, and do not take advantage of others or be greedy for small advantages. This spirit is worth learning and inheriting from each and every one of us.
Finally, I would like to say that although the cost of this meal is not much, the second elder's insistence on paying the bill by himself shows us their quality and dignity. This quality and dignity cannot be bought by money, and it is something we should learn and pursue. Let's give a thumbs up to astronaut Jiang Xinlin and his parents!
