Ouyang Jing and Gu Xinwu, two girls with very different personalities, have become high school table mates for three years because of fate.
Ouyang Jing was quiet and introverted, and never spoke loudly, giving people a feeling of indifference to the flower of the snowy mountain. In fact, she is very enthusiastic in her heart, but she is not good at expressing it.
Gu Xinwu is lively and cheerful, optimistic and enthusiastic, very good at dealing with people, and is deeply loved by his classmates.
Although the two have been at the same table for three years, they rarely have in-depth communication, until a small episode in the third year of high school made their relationship change subtly.
It was the first semester of my senior year of high school, and it was a rainy Monday morning.
Ouyang Jing came to the classroom as usual, only to find that Gu Xinwu's seat was empty.
This is very abnormal, Gu Xinwu has always been a good student who is most disciplined.
Why hasn't Heart Dance come yet? Ouyang Jing muttered to herself.
At this time, the Chinese teacher walked in.
After class, the teacher was taking the name and found that Gu Xinwu had not arrived.
Xinwu took a leave of absence today. The student sitting next to him whispered to the teacher.
When Ouyang Jing heard the news, she faintly felt that something was wrong.
She knew that Gu Xinwu's family was not good, her parents were disabled, and she was struggling to survive on a little ** subsidy.
Xinwu is usually very frugal, wearing clothes and shoes for several years, and relying on her own odd jobs to make money for her living expenses.
At the end of the day, Ouyang Jing always felt unsettled.
After school, she plucked up the courage to go to her homeroom teacher, Ms. Wang.
Teacher Wang, I would like to ask, Xinwu asked for personal leave today, is there something wrong at home? Ouyang Jing asked cautiously.
Teacher Wang sighed and said, "Yes, Xinwu may be dropping out of school." I just went to visit her family, and the situation is very not optimistic. ”
It turned out that Gu Xinwu's father had a serious illness, and the family owed a huge amount of medical expenses, and Xinwu dropped out of school to work to share the family's income.
But she has a great hope of being admitted to college, and it's a pity to drop out like this. Ouyang Jing said.
I also think so, and I have already applied for a tuition waiver for her at school, but I am afraid that I will not be able to make up the money. Teacher Wang said anxiously, "Xinwu, this child is very good, I really can't bear to let her drop out of school halfway." ”
Ouyang Jing was silent, she knew Gu Xinwu's temper and would never accept charity from others easily.
Can I help too? My family's situation is okay, and I want to donate some money to the school anonymously, specifically for the tuition of Heart Dance. Ouyang Jing finally spoke.
Teacher Wang looked at the quiet girl in front of him and was very moved. "That's a good idea, and I'm behind you. Xinwu's self-esteem is very strong, and if she doesn't know that the money was donated by you, she can accept it peacefully. ”、
Ouyang Jing nodded, and immediately decided to hand over the money to Teacher Wang the next day.
That night, Ouyang Jing dug out his small money jar, which contained the pocket money he had accumulated over the years, adding up to 2,000 yuan. She put the money in an envelope and wrote the words "anonymous donation" on it.
The next morning, she was the first to arrive at school and quietly put the envelope in Teacher Wang's drawer.
Later, with the efforts of Mr. Wang and the school, Gu Xinwu continued to return to school, successfully completed high school, and was admitted to a key university as she wished.
Before graduation, Mr. Wang talked to Ouyang Jing alone and thanked her for her kindness.
Ouyang Jing, your original 2,000 yuan changed Xinwu's life. I thank you for her. ”
Mr. Wang, this is what I should do. Xinwu doesn't know the best, I don't want her to feel like she owes me a favor. Ouyang Jing said shyly.
Teacher Wang nodded and didn't say anything more.
After graduating from high school, the two went north and south, drifting apart in the sea of people.
In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.
Ouyang Jing has become a Chinese teacher in a key middle school, and her life is stable and orderly.
One day, she suddenly received a strange call.
Hey, is it Teacher Ouyang Jing? "* There was an unfamiliar female voice on the other end.
I am, may I ask who you are? ”
Teacher Ou, I'm Gu Xinwu! ”
Gu Xindan? Ouyang Jing struggled to search for the name in her mind, "Our high school classmates? ”
That's right! Gu Xinwu said excitedly, "Teacher Ouyang Jing, you still remember me, it's great!" ”
The two exclaimed in unison.
I haven't seen each other for ten years, they have their own careers and lives, and it's really nice to be able to talk again.
Ouyang Jing, let's meet. I'm in your city right now, not far from you, and I want to thank you in person. Gu Xinwu said.
Okay. Ouyang Jing readily agreed.
On the day of the appointment, Ouyang Jing took a seat in the café early.
After a while, a tall woman with outstanding temperament pushed the door in.
Ouyang Jing, I'm here! ”
Ouyang Jing looked at it, and the woman in front of her was the lively and cheerful Gu Xinwu back then, but now she is more decent and elegant.
Xinwu, you've changed a lot. Ouyang Jing praised sincerely.
Ouyang Jing is too, becoming more and more calm and calm. Gu Xinwu said with a smile.
The two recounted the past. Gu Xinwu is now working as a manager in a foreign company, and her life is happy.
Thanks to your help, I was able to successfully complete my studies and change my destiny. I'll never forget your kindness. Gu Xinwu said.
You are too humble and rely on your own efforts. I was just a handful. Ouyang Jing said humbly.
No, Ouyang Jing, I know that 2,000 yuan is a lot for you. I've been obsessed with looking for an opportunity to repay you. ”
Xinwu, we are classmates, you don't have to be so polite. I just did what I was supposed to do. ”
Ouyang Jing, please accept this, let me feel better. Gu Xinwu said, taking out an envelope from her bag.
Ouyang Jing took a look, and there were stacks of renminbi inside, adding up to 200,000 yuan.
Heart dance, it's too much, I can't ask for it. Ouyang Jing panicked.
Ouyang Jing, I am happy now, and it all depends on your help back then. 200,000 is not much for me, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it, don't make me sad. Gu Xinwu said earnestly.
Ouyang Jing looked at Gu Xinwu's determined eyes, knowing that she would never take back this intention.
Xinwu, I understand your kindness and appreciate it. But I insisted that I only charge you 2,000 yuan for the tuition fee of that year. Our friendship shouldn't be based on money, and I hope we can go back to that innocent and selfless relationship. If you must express your gratitude, we will keep in touch more in the future and be good friends. ”
Ouyang Jing, I understand what you mean. You are right, our friendship is the most precious. Gu Xinwu finally nodded in agreement.
So she took out 2,000 yuan from the envelope and returned it to Ouyang Jing, and the two agreed to contact more in the future and cherish this rare friendship.
On the road of life, if someone is warm and someone is tolerant, our destiny will be rewritten, and the world will change as a result. The story of Ouyang Jing and Gu Xinwu may be the best footnote.
