Hu Yue almost understood why Li Dong had such an attitude towards Ren Yu.

What Li Dong hates most is the flattery.

As he gets richer, has a higher status, and becomes more powerful, there are more and more fawning people around him.

Even many classmates, who originally had a very pure relationship, began to flatter him.

And there are fewer and fewer people like Ren Yu who don't flatter him or fawn over him, but just treat him as an old classmate.

It seems to be cherished more and more.

In fact, Hu Yue could also see that the relationship between Li Dong and Ren Yu should not be too close.

Maybe the relationship between the two was normal when they were in school.

But just because Ren Yu doesn't flatter him like others, Li Dong now values ​​Ren Yu even more.

They all invited him to their homes.

The thoughtful Hu Yue made an excuse to go out while the two were chatting.

Li Dong didn't know what she was doing when she went out, so he didn't care.

Ren Yu sat here for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, he stood up and left.

Li Dong did not force him to stay this time, but made an agreement with him to visit several teachers' homes together every year to pay New Year's greetings.

Ren Yu readily agreed.

After coming downstairs and getting ready to get into the car, his cousin Zhou Quan followed Hu Yue's instructions and pushed over several boxes of wine and tea that had been prepared, plus a bunch of tonic gift boxes, and gave them to Ren Yu.

A whole small cart's worth of stuff.

Ren Yu was startled and quickly declined.

It was already rude to say that he came to the door empty-handed. How could he ask for their things again?

And there are so many more.

This doesn't look cheap.

He can't accept it.

Hu Yue smiled and said: "They are all sent by those who come to pay New Year's greetings. I can't even keep them at home. Anyway, they are free things. Just don't dislike them."

Li Dong also said: "We old classmates don't pay attention to those messy customs. If you don't want these things, they will have expired if they are left in my house. They are wasted in vain. Just take them. Follow me from now on. Don't

Be polite, you know I hate being polite."

Ren Yu smiled naively and said: "Okay, I won't be polite. Anyway, you are a big boss, and you are indeed good at this."

"That's what I like about you." Li Dong patted him on the shoulder.

After seeing off Ren Yu, Hu Yue asked about some of Ren Yu's situation: "I've never heard you talk about this Ren Yu before? Isn't the relationship between you two very good?"

"How should I put it? When we were in school, we had a fight."

"At that time, there was a girl in our class who had a crush on me, and Ren Yu had a crush on that girl. Then Ren Yu, a tough guy, came to me for a duel."

Li Dong just said a few words, and Hu Yue's expression gradually cooled down: "There is a girl in your class who has a crush on you? Who is it? What's her name? Does she just have a crush on you? What about you? Are you attracted? She must be attracted, right? Yes.

Otherwise, why would Ren Yu fight with you? How far have you developed? Have you done anything to feel sorry for me?"

Li Dong was speechless.

Hu Yue is good at everything, but she is too jealous.

Li Dong quickly told Hu Yue some of the things that happened between him and Xu Lili back then. After hearing this, Hu Yue snorted coldly: "That Xu Lili is so shameless."

"That's right. And do you know? Xu Lili had a boyfriend in Beijing before. Do you know who it is?" Li Dong said.

"How do I know?" Hu Yue didn't care who Xu Lili's boyfriend was.

Li Dong said: "It's Song Qian."

"Song Qian?" Hu Yue was stunned for a moment when she heard the name, and then her expression became strange.

Of course she knew about Song Qian, an ignorant bastard and a deceitful scumbag.

He pretends to be a man of five or six all day long, cheating here and there, and the little girls he deceives can form a reinforced company.

You don't need to think about it to know that Xu Lili must have been deceived by Song Qian.

"Yes, it's Song Qian, that famous bastard in the capital. That stupid Xu Lili thought Song Qian was a rich second generation. The year before last, she took Song Qian back to her hometown during the Chinese New Year, organized a class reunion, and showed off to us. As a result,

It just so happened that Yang Wensong went there and exposed Song Qian in person. Oh my, at that scene, if it had been me, I would have had to crawl directly into the cracks in the ground. But Xu Lili was so pitiful that she couldn't stand the stimulation and fainted."

When Li Dong thought of that scene, he felt a little gloating.

But when I think about Xu Lili’s experience, I feel a little sad.

By the way, I haven’t heard from Xu Lili in the past two years. I wonder how she is doing now.

Bah, bah, bah, it's none of her business.

Hu Yue looked at him quietly and said, "Are you gloating?"

"ah?"

Li Dong was stunned for a moment.

Why doesn't Hu Yue look very happy?

How could he show sympathy if he didn't show gloating?

Hu Yue continued: "The fact that you are gloating about others' misfortune means that you still hate Xu Lili in your heart, and hatred means that you are still thinking about her, right?"

Li Dong suddenly didn't know what to say.

He looked at Hu Yue blankly, with a look of injustice on his face.

Hu Yue rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, don't look aggrieved. I'm just reminding you. I'm not that kind of petty woman."

Li Dong was very melancholy.

I even want to slap myself.

Why did you mention Xu Lili when you said it was nothing?

You should have a longer memory in the future and never mention other women in front of Hu Yue.

By the way, Hu Yue has been with me for such a long time, and has been nurtured by me for so long, and yet she is still so petty and not as generous as herself.

It seems that we have to work harder in the future to guide Hu Yue to the correct values ​​and not be so narrow-minded.

Hu Yue did not mention Xu Lili again, but asked: "Isn't it because you have this relationship with Ren Yu that you are so close to him?"

Li Dong almost spit out his blood.

What kind of man would get close to his love rival? What a broad mind he must have.

Li Dong didn't even know what to say.

It was Hu Yue who said: "Okay, I'm just joking with you. I don't know you well yet. If you were really a love rival with Ren Yu, you wouldn't be so close to him."

Li Dong felt better now and said, "It's good that you know."

"Then what's going on between you and Ren Yu? You are so indifferent to other classmates, why are you so enthusiastic about this Ren Yu? Is it because Ren Yu is not as flattering as others to please you?" Hu Yue still said

Quite curious.

Li Dong sighed softly and said, "What should I say about this? Ren Yu, as you can see, is a bit stupid."

"When he was in school, he didn't study well. He was scolded by the teacher all day long and called his parents."

"Teacher Pan Xuming, who we went to pay New Year's greetings to today, really punished Ren Yu a lot back then. He beat and kicked Ren Yu and called his parents. He even kicked Ren Yu out of the classroom and made him stand at every turn."

"After graduation, Ren Yu will just deliver express delivery here in his hometown. There is no big future."

"But there is a person like this who was not favored by the teachers when he was in school and has no future in the eyes of others, but he goes to pay New Year's greetings to several teachers every year."

"Every year."

"And what about the other promising people? None of them went to pay New Year's greetings to the teacher."

"Including me."

"So I am very emotional."

"I just feel like I'm really not as good as Ren Yu."

After hearing this, Hu Yue nodded and said, "It seems that this Ren Yu is really a... good person."

Li Dong said: "He is indeed a good person. There are not many good people like him these days."

Hu Yue said: "But often such good people are regarded as fools in the eyes of others, and are not very popular in society."

Li Dongshen agreed and said: "Yeah, let's just say that we are going to pay New Year's greetings to Pan Xuming today. Ren Yu went in first, and Pan Xuming was sitting there without even getting up. He didn't even greet Ren Yu. As soon as I entered, Pan Xuming

He came running straight over and held my hand with both hands. It was so enthusiastic. Ren Yu went to greet him every year, but he ignored me. This was the first time I greeted him, and he was so excited.

Ah, it’s really ironic when you think about it.”

"This is human nature, to follow the crowd." Hu Yue said.

"I know it's human nature, but I just find it ironic." Li Dong said.

Hu Yue smiled and said: "Stop lamenting that these are useless. This Ren Yu, from what you said, he is indeed a pretty good person. What do you think, are you going to give him a hand?"

Li Dong pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said: "He is delivering takeaways now. Although it is a bit hard, it is not bad overall. It costs five to six thousand yuan a month. On good days, it can exceed 10,000 yuan. It is already good."

.As he said himself, he has no ability, so he just earns hard money, and he can feel at ease with this money. If we really arrange a job that makes more money for him, I'm afraid he won't feel so at ease yet."

Hu Yue thought for a while and said: "That's true. I can also see that Ren Yu doesn't like asking for help. If you really arrange a job for him, he may not accept it."

Li Dong said: "Let's just say it. Anyway, let's do this for now. If Ren Yu really encounters any difficulties in the future, I will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. My friend, isn't that the case?"

…………

By the way, when Ren Yu returned home and unloaded the large number of things that Li Dong gave him from the car, his parents were shocked.

"Xiaoyu, where did you get these things? Did you buy them yourself?"

His father looked at these gift boxes one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more frightened he became.

There are white wine, red wine, tea, health products, dried fruits, eggs, etc.

I counted more than twenty boxes of gifts in total.

A rough estimate is that these things cost upwards of 10,000 yuan at least.

If his son Ren Yu bought all these things himself, why did this little brat spend so much money? Isn't this a waste of money?

Besides, who should I give it to as a gift after buying it?

Everything that needs to be given has been given.

Even if it is a gift, there is no need for his family to give such expensive gifts to others.

Although Father Ren Yu didn't know the price of most of the gifts, several boxes of wine and health products were advertised on TV all day long. He had also seen them in supermarkets in town, and each box cost hundreds of dollars.

thousand.

Given his family's conditions, do his relatives need to give him such good things?

But if he hadn’t bought them himself, then who would have given them so many expensive gifts?

Ren Yu chuckled and said, "How can I be willing to buy these things? My classmates gave them to me."

"Your classmate? Which classmate? Why did I give you so many things?" Father Ren Yu was even more confused.

Ren Yu had very little contact with his classmates, and only occasionally contacted Murakami and the others. But those classmates' families were all in average condition, so who would give him so many things?

"You should have heard of his family, Li Dong from Lijia Village. His uncle is Zhang Fanglu who raises shrimps in the north." Ren Yu said.

When it comes to Zhang Fanglu, Ren Yu’s parents will know.

There are really not many people in the whole town, or even in Haizhou, who don't know about Zhang Fanglu and Zhang Fancai.

"His house? Why did he give you so many things? These are not cheap, are they?" Father Ren Yu was still a little puzzled.

My son has almost no contact with that Li Dong.

Why did you suddenly give him so many things?

This person who has no merit and no reward cannot accept gifts from others in vain?

Ren Yu said: "Why don't I go to the city today to pay New Year's greetings to some teachers? Li Dong happened to be there too, and the teacher even stayed with us to have a meal. After we came back from the meal and passed by Li Dong's house, Li Dong asked me to go in and sit down.

After a while, when I was leaving, he stuffed so many things for me. I said I didn’t want it, but he insisted on stuffing it for me, saying that these were given to him by others, and he didn’t care about them, and they were all expired even if I left them.

Just let me take it. So I took it."

Ren Yu's father and mother looked at each other, and the father said slightly seriously: "Why are you so ignorant? It's their business if they don't care. If you say you go to their house and sit there,

Is it ridiculous to take so many things from others when you leave? These things cost at least 18,000 yuan, right? It’s too expensive, we can’t afford it.”

Ren Yu smiled and said: "Okay, Mom and Dad, please don't worry about it. My classmate Li Dong is a very loyal person. If I don't take it, he won't be happy. And he is rich, so these

Things, people really don’t pay attention to them.”

Ren Yu's parents felt a little relieved.

My mother asked a little excitedly: "You have a pretty good relationship with Li Dong? Why haven't I heard you talk about it before? If you have time someday, please invite someone to come and sit at home."

Although their family is not the kind of family that likes to cling to others, it may be a very honorable thing to be closer to Li Dong's family.

People, aren’t they just trying to save face most of the time?

"The relationship is not bad, we are all old classmates. It's just that his family is rich and powerful now, why do I keep mentioning him when I have nothing to do? It seems like I want to curry favor with him," Ren Yu said.

Father Ren Yu said: "What I'm saying is that a good relationship will lead to a good relationship, but we don't need to curry favor with others, we can just live our own lives well."

Ren Yu's mother said: "I just said it casually, and I didn't ask you to curry favor with others. You two have such a temper."

A family of three was talking here when a man came in from outside.

The neighbor's aunt.
