It was Sunday.
Early in the morning, I used to drive my motorcycle to the foot of Mt. Mangi and park it for morning exercise. I had a fear of heights and didn't dare to climb the stone steps, so I had to take a detour. Deep along the trail, the sky is cloudy and foggy, and the leaves are scattered with the cold wind, and there is no trace on the road, which may be because the weather is too cold.
I went around the mountain, returned to the original point, stood next to the motorcycle, the dusty motorcycle was so conspicuous, thinking that I would go to work tomorrow, so I simply found a place to wash the car. Facing the cold wind, except for the vehicles coming and going, there are almost no pedestrians on the road, it is really cold!Will the car wash be open?
I drove to the place where the car wash fee is very cheap, and it is also the place I often go to - next to the Leli Forest Farm on the new highway in Tianlin County. The car wash store is open, and the couple in the store with Zhou Zhuang's accent are busy with business. He was greeted by a ten-year-old young man, perhaps the shopkeeper's son. looked at me, smiled, and greeted: "Wash the car." I was worried and asked, "Do you want to wash your car today?""Wash. The words reveal fortitude. I parked the car, found a stool and sat down, took out my phone, and tried to pass the time. As soon as I sat down, the cold wind stabbed my fingers, and my fingers were stiff, so I didn't want to look at it anymore, so I simply wrapped my clothes tightly, stood up, and paced beside me, thinking: It's so cold, the car wash fee should be on the price.
After the young man washed my motorcycle, he charged me ten yuan, and I smiled and asked, "Your parents often charge me six yuan, why do you charge me ten yuan today?"The shoplady heard it and said, "Son, he often comes here to wash the car and charges six yuan." At this moment, I suddenly felt a guilt in my heart: the young man who was so thinly dressed, despite the raging cold wind, was scrubbing the car for me with his cold red hands. I usually don't negotiate the price of eating, drinking, and dressing, and I have to ...... to wash a car
I accepted the four yuan I returned, and I felt guilty in my heart. Looking at the car wash family who are plainly dressed and full of kindness and are not afraid of hardship, I can't give people six yuan for car washing. I walked up to the female boss, took out the four yuan I had just made up, and said embarrassedly, "I'm ......."I ......It was just a joke, you can take it back", she replied with a smile: "We must adhere to the integrity of our small business, don't worry too much, we will not ask for your four yuan back." "I couldn't help it, and with guilt, I rode a motorcycle, and the family of the car wash watched me drive away with a smile. At this time, I no longer have the cold of waiting for the car wash, and I am no longer afraid of the ......cold wind
When I got home, thinking about the car wash family, I was deep thinking: what kind of life are we going to live?I remember reading such a passage in a book: If you can't achieve great things, use great methods to do small things;Kindness emanating from the depths of the heart is a valuable asset, a silent but important force. Just like the car washing family, a simple and simple life can also create a warm world.
