Siheyuan: Rebirth 54 years ago, neighbor is stupid

Malanlan's attitude towards the topic before and after has changed drastically.

So Li Zhenmin thought, with such a big mouth like Ma Lanlan, why did she only briefly mention the situation at home? Shouldn't she say everything she wanted to say?

If it is harmonious, it is harmonious; if it is not good, it is not good. Isn’t it just a way to show how difficult it is now by speaking it out?

Therefore, due to the change in attitude, Li Zhenmin always felt that Ma Lanlan's family seemed unusual, at least the family relationship was not so ordinary.

"Brother, I have always heard stories about you. You suffered a lot since childhood, and only started to show your talents in your twenties. First you worked as a chef, then you worked in a factory, and then..."

“It is no exaggeration to say that you are the most inspiring, smartest, and most capable person I have ever met or heard of!”

Malanlan’s compliment was not very sincere, but it felt natural and not at all strange, as if it had been rehearsed countless times.

Li Zhenmin didn't care about it. After all, it wasn't the first time he was told this. What surprised him was that after Ma Lanlan finished praising him, she changed the subject the next moment: "I respect and admire you from the bottom of my heart. I have always dreamed of meeting you to learn from you."

"I never thought that one day I would be able to sit down with you for dinner, and even call you brother. It feels like a dream now."

"As the saying goes, choice is more important than hard work. The most important thing for a person is to choose the right direction. Brother, with your experience and knowledge, can you help me analyze what a woman like me should do?"

Li Zhenmin was stunned, and then he found it funny.

It turns out that you have said so much and are waiting for me.

After performing for such a long time, he tried his best to show that he is eloquent and good at livening up the atmosphere. It turned out that he wanted to say that he is good at dealing with people and wanted to transfer to an office to deal with human relations.

Although she is still immature in many aspects, she is still young and has experienced so many twists and turns, so she is suitable for working in an office and dealing with social interactions.

In Li Zhenmin's opinion, Ma Lanlan is suitable for personnel management and diplomacy. As long as someone guides her, corrects some of the impatient details and stops being so self-righteous, she can accomplish something with this character and mentality.

But the problem is, perhaps because of my youth, I was too impatient and wanted to achieve everything in one go.

If I were Malanlan, I would not make such a suggestion at this time.

First, Ma Lanlan’s current job is pretty good. Being a broadcaster is also considered an office job. As long as she works diligently, learns some other skills in the field, and maintains good relationships with her superiors, promotion will be a natural thing once she has the qualifications. There is no need to use backdoors.

Second, Ma Lanlan does not understand the real reasons for quick promotion through backdoors. Some of them are either because one has the ability to bring benefits to the leader, or because one is so beautiful that the leader can take advantage of the situation, or because of family relationships.

You won't be promoted just for being able to liven up the atmosphere. At most, you're suitable to be a lackey doing odd jobs. Even with Ma Lanlan's ability, she's not even qualified to be a lackey now.

You are too young and cannot handle many details well. If you become a lackey for your leader, you may bring bad influence to your leader one day. After all, talking a lot does not mean you can speak well.

To put it bluntly, administrative work requires liveliness and the ability to think in a roundabout way, but it also requires caution and attentiveness, and even more so, it requires steadiness and not making mistakes.

It is obvious that Ma Lanlan is not that kind of person, or she is still very young and has not grown to that level yet.

Maybe if Li Zhenmin personally guides her and corrects some of her shortcomings, she may grow up quickly, but again, why? Just because you are Hu Yong's girlfriend?

They haven't even gotten married yet, and this is just the first time we've met, but he's already directly hinting at this kind of request. Considering Li Zhenmin's requirements, this is too stupid!

If it was an unintentional act, for example, He Yuzhu often acted stupidly in front of the leader, but the leader would not care. On the contrary, he would think that He Yuzhu was a real person who was just not good at hiding his thoughts. But Ma Lanlan planned it deliberately, which made her seem not simple, but stupid and hypocritical.

Li Zhenmin was unlikely to have a good impression of this kind of person, not to mention that some of the previous words did not make him have a good impression. The only time he had a good impression of him was when he was not talkative at the beginning when he greeted him.

In short, Malanlan has no great wisdom but a lot of cleverness. Even if she is lucky, she will not achieve much in the future.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with managing the household after marriage.

However, Li Zhenmin felt that there was something wrong with Ma Lanlan's family situation. Considering their hasty attitude during their previous meeting, he began to doubt the marriage.

"You are more outgoing than the average person and like to interact with people. You are suitable for work in purchasing. In addition, your current job is also a good choice and it suits you very well. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. This is our first meeting, and only you know the specific situation."

Li Zhenmin replied with a smile.

Ma Lanlan thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you think it's possible for me to go to the logistics department to do purchasing?"

Li Zhenmin thought to himself, good fellow, you just went straight to the topic, didn’t you think that the relationship between you two is not that close yet?

So I replied: "I just said that your personality is suitable, but it is still difficult for you to transfer directly. If you want to develop in the direction of purchasing in the future, you can learn some accounting knowledge appropriately. The same is true for other positions. You need to learn some knowledge in related fields."

Obviously, Ma Lanlan was not satisfied with this answer. Dissatisfaction flashed across her face, but she did not dare to say it out loud. So she quickly put on a smile and said, "Thank you for your advice, brother. I will go back and learn more about it."

As if knowing Li Zhenmin's attitude, Ma Lanlan no longer mentioned work matters at the subsequent dinner and spoke less. Hu Yong was even more of a talkative person. Li Zhenmin didn't say much either and just ate by himself, so the atmosphere gradually became cold.

The dinner was over and the three of them went their separate ways.

Li Zhenmin went home, while Hu Yong and Ma Lanlan rode away on their bikes.

After they separated, on the way to send Ma Lanlan home, Hu Yong couldn't help but say: "Lanlan, do you also want to change your job? Don't worry about it. My brother also said that once you learn some knowledge in related fields, everything will be fine."

Suddenly, Hu Yong remembered something and said, "By the way, since you also want to study, let's supervise each other when we are free in the future."

Ma Lanlan had completely lost the expression she had at the dinner party and directly retorted, "What study? Can't you hear that your elder brother is rejecting me? He almost told me to get lost!"

Hu Yong frowned and said, "It's not that exaggerated."

Ma Lanlan said angrily, "What do you mean it's not that exaggerated? Are you stupid? Learning some knowledge is useful, but it's not his words that decide your job position. Since he can just transfer you to another position, why do I have to learn when it's my turn? Isn't this a refusal?"

Hu Yong: “…”

Ma Lanlan: "How I'm doing at the radio station, doesn't he know? We're getting married, and our relationship is already clear, so why did he refuse? He just wants me to stay at home and take care of the kids after we get married, and not work!"

Hu Yong: "Isn't it good to take care of children?"

Ma Lanlan: "Hu Yong, you...is that how you see me? Do you think of me as a reproductive tool? And does having a child conflict with work? Isn't Liang Ladi living a good life?"

"Liang Ladi was brought up by your eldest brother, and Liang Ladi had no relationship with your eldest brother at the beginning, right?"

"I am closer to Liang Ladi than she is, and I am more educated than her. Your elder brother rejected me because he thinks I am just a reproductive tool for your family, right? This is prejudice!"

Hu Yong: “…”

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Maybe big brother doesn't mean it like that?"

"What else could it mean other than this?"

"I think you misunderstood. Big Brother is not that kind of person. I will talk to him later. Big Brother is very easy to talk to."

After getting Hu Yong's guarantee, Ma Lanlan snorted coldly and said nothing more, which was considered as her agreement.

An idea suddenly came to Hu Yong's mind. He thought that Ma Lanlan was so angry and said so much, could she be waiting for him to say this?
