Chapter 2412 (1)

The director and deputy director of the property management department of the company have been really good to the author for many years.

Sometimes, they are like uncles and aunts to their relatives' children, showing the kindness of elders and leaving a good impression. They are benefactors and kind people on the journey of life, and they are people you get along with for a long time.

Having worked at that company for so many years, the overall situation was stable. Although the monthly salary wasn't high, the shift work was simple, the work environment was acceptable, there weren't many conflicts with the other employees in the office, and I also received preferential treatment from my two supervisors. These were the main reasons why I stayed in that office building for so many years. In those years, I could have found a better job, but I stayed with my original company because I felt that stability and security were enough.

Comparatively speaking, my mother's maternal uncle, her own brother, has for many years held a negative view of his nephew, considering him an outsider, not a relative. He believes that only that person's child should receive the money, and that his sister's tendency to give money to her own child is problematic, implying that biological children wouldn't treat their parents well. His attitude towards his nephew was sometimes quite harsh, often using very hurtful and offensive language. After so many such instances, we've stopped having much contact with him.

The author's aunt, who is also his father's second sister, was very kind to her nephew when he was young. However, when his family faced financial difficulties, she not only did not help him but also criticized him and said hurtful things behind his back, saying that he was a failure, a disappointment, and had not brought any good to the family.

Some people only see things clearly and truly when they are in trouble.

Years ago, when we met, I told her my father was bad; he was always cursing and insulting people. My aunt didn't care; she said she didn't have time to listen to such things and was very annoyed that I talked about my family. Some outsiders will listen to your troubles, but some relatives hate to hear them. Relatives feel they have no obligation to treat you kindly, but some people without blood ties will treat you kindly—there are truly good connections.

When I was little, I visited my aunt's house dozens of times. The family there was quite harmonious; we played cards together, ate, drank, and had fun. But my grandmother would say that the family didn't like me, and I shouldn't go so often. The elders in the family said this dozens of times, but I didn't believe them. Only later did I finally see the truth. Most of the kindness I received as a child was because my nephew's family was wealthy. What kindness would they show me when they were no longer rich? It turned out that all the kindness was just an act; their true face was one of cold indifference. Eventually, I'll understand that some of the words of my closest relatives are the truth. Whether I believe it or not, the truth is the truth.

True goodness often endures for many years, remaining good until it is recognized.
