What are true friends like?

There is no fixed answer. Let's explain it with a story I read. It feels quite consistent.

A man knows his companion in a long journey and an inn.

It is said that Lu Yao and Mary are good friends, Lu Yao's father is a wealthy businessman, and Mary's father is a servant of Lu Yao's family. Although it is a master-servant relationship, it is very good. They read and play together.

It's time to talk about marriage Lu Yao is rich and powerful, and he doesn't worry about not having a wife. Mary is poor, and no one wants to marry him. One day, the matchmaker proposed to Mary. Mary was overjoyed, but asked for an expensive bride price. Mary had to ask her classmate Lu Yao for help. Lu Yao said: You can borrow money, but I will cover for you three days before you get married. Ma Li was furious, but he was helpless. He can't be single all his life, so he has to agree. So I chose a good day to get married.

Mary has been suffering for three days, and it's his turn to get married on the fourth day. How annoyed!

As soon as it got dark, he plunged into the bridal chamber, pulled off his head and went to sleep. The bride asked, Husband, why did you stay up all night studying three nights ago, but today you fell asleep with your head covered? Mary realized that Lu Yao had played a big joke on him, and he was really happy and annoyed. Played by a rich friend. Swear to study hard and get ahead. Later, I was really admitted and became a big official in Beijing.

Lu Yao was bold and unrestrained, chivalrous and courageous, but in the end he sat on the mountain. Seeing that my family really can't make ends meet, I remembered my friend Ma Li who once supported me, so I discussed with my wife that I would go to Beijing to ask him for help.

Ma Li was very happy to see Lu Yao and gave him a warm reception. Lu Yao explained his purpose, but Ma Li said, drink! Drink it! There was no intention of helping him at all, and Lu Yao was very angry. A few days later, Ma Li said, Brother Lu, go home so that your wife won't worry! Lu Yao had to go home angry and depressed. I heard crying at home before I entered the house, so I hurried in. Seeing his wife and children crying in their coffins, the family was pleasantly surprised when Lu Yao came in. It turned out that Ma Li sent someone to send a coffin and said: After Lu Yao arrived in Beijing, he was seriously ill and died because of ineffective treatment. Lu Yao is even more angry. When he opened the coffin, he saw that it contained gold and silver, and there was a note that said: If you let my wife keep it for three days, I will let your wife cry bitterly.

Testimony: True friends are not just rhetoric, but empathy. Life is only a few decades, and how many friends do you know? But how many people can really understand your heart and really cherish it?

If you are lucky, you already have such a sincere friend, so cherish it!

Don't give up easily because of some trivial misunderstanding. A true friend is the most precious wealth in your life, so that you will not be lonely along the way.
