Those years when I raised bosses

The fashionable man showed hesitation, but he still replied: "Just now I heard that you can speak German. I wonder if you can translate it?"

"What's the matter, sir? I can do some simple interpretation in German. If it's a special profession, such as law, medicine, mechanical equipment, chemicals and other industries, some professional vocabulary will be difficult for me." Tong Tong said More real.

I know 1000 characters in Chinese, and I can basically read all kinds of professional books. Even if I don’t know the pronunciation, I can guess the meaning by reading the radicals.Different from pictographic characters such as Chinese, those languages ​​that rely on alphabetic spelling to express meaning, such as English and German, require a large amount of vocabulary reserves, which are really interlaced like mountains, and each specialty of medical terms and legal terms has its own. Set of words, tens of thousands of words from all walks of life are still increasing every year.Many ordinary people may not have access to those industries for a lifetime, and they do not know those professional words and cannot understand the corresponding professional books.

Tong Tong has a lot of English vocabulary. When he was studying, he took the exam every year. When he graduated, he invested directly by looking at first-hand economic data from the UK and the United States, and discussed current affairs with friends on Wall Street in English without barriers.As for the application of German, Tong Tong is more on the level of social science philosophy, for example, read the original text of Das Kapital to cultivate his sentiment.Ordinary people are fine in communication, and there is a basis for professional article translation and dictionary lookup, but the requirements for interpretation are high, and it is easy to not guarantee it, so as not to delay other people's business.

"Really? That's great! Don't worry, it's not that kind of professional interpreter." The stylish man handed out a business card and said enthusiastically, "Hello, I'm Tian Feng, the manager of the Starlight Experimental Troupe. It is a rare opportunity to communicate with an art troupe in Germany. If it is English, someone in our troupe can understand it. But German is really not good. I just asked all over the nearby translation agencies, and they all said that the translation is no problem, and the interpretation is all right. The reason is that the requirements are high, and secondly, there are few teachers who can understand German, and the time for reading and reading in class may not be suitable.”

"What time do you need?" Tong Tong was a little moved. After all, the price of standard interpreting is definitely higher than that of written translation. The short-term service will be on-site for one or two hours, and you will leave with the money when you finish the job. You don't need to proofread carefully like written translation. Modification, the relative hourly income is very considerable.Compared with those teachers and students at school, Tong Tong only needs to go to C University at night to collect graduate sales items, and happens to be free during the day.

Not to mention the international exchange of the art troupe, if you can bring He Xiaolu with you, it will also open his eyes.You should know that in general formal theaters, the entrance height is above 1.2m~1.4m. Children who want to appreciate elegant art must work hard to grow taller.

"It's a 2-hour exchange time in the morning the day after tomorrow, in the small theater at the gate of Minzu University. My mobile phone number is on the business card, and what is the teacher's name?"

Tong Tong said frankly: "My name is He Liantian. I learned German from my elders when I was a child. I am not a formal student of German. I don't have a mobile phone. If you are sure to ask me for an interpreter, we will definitely arrive early. If you If you change your mind, please call this number... This is the phone number of my landlord, Ms. Liu, and she will tell me."

"So it's not a German major, so..." Tian Feng was really a little hesitant, and didn't say anything dead.

Of course Tong Tong understands other people's concerns. People like He Liantian who have no academic qualifications are at a disadvantage. Seeing Tian Feng's expression, he doesn't say any more, and it won't be too late to ask the price when they really can cooperate.

Tong Tong didn't care about this small gain or loss, and the price of interpreting for 2 hours was only a few hundred yuan, and he generously suggested: "C University is nearby, and the students are knowledgeable and talented. There are often foreign students coming and going. I saw you two days ago. I chatted with the German students. Why don't you go over there and ask to see if there is a more suitable candidate. "

After Tian Feng left, Tong Tong put away his business card, thinking that even if he didn't interpret for others, this would be considered a meeting of a fashionista.Looking for a chance in the future, taking He Xiaolu to see an art performance will be another way.

After lunch, Tong Tong took He Xiaolu and opened an account at a nearby bank with his ID card, and deposited 5000 in it.In this era, there is no such thing as Alipay, and it is easy to attract thieves if you have too much cash on you when you are out of the house.In the end, I only took [-] yuan in cash and [-] yuan in change, got on the bus, and went directly to Qin Xue's place.

Riding in the car along the way, with nothing to do, Tong Tong explained to He Xiaolu the novel terms such as art troupe.He Xiaolu, who hasn't even watched much TV, finally has a relatively reliable perception of acting.

Chen Ying's friend, Qin Xue, was a little sister she met when she was working in a garment factory in Dongyuan in the south.

Qin Xue came from a remote mountainous area. Her family was looking for her elder sister. In order to have sons, her parents gave birth to three daughters in one go.Finally, a boy was born. Previously, these sisters left the eldest who was already able to work, and the second and third were given to others.If the first child with rural household registration is a girl, they can have another child.So because Qin Xue was the boss, she barely managed to get her household registration and had an ID card. It is said that the second and third children are still black households.

Qin Xue has an ID card. When she was ten years old, she went south with her fellow countrymen to work. Almost all the money she earned at the beginning was sent home to support her younger brother. She ate bran and swallowed vegetables and slept in the factory dormitory. poor.Chen Ying's conditions are a bit better. It is said that her parents are dead, at least no one in the family asks her for money, so she always takes care of Qin Xue one or two.

Later, I heard that Qin Xue's younger brother got some kind of disease and needed a lot of money. It was impossible for Qin Xue to earn money by working part-time. The little sisters were all poor. As soon as she gritted her teeth, she followed an older one. She had a wife who just died. wealthy businessman.Later, when the rich businessman went to the imperial capital to develop, he brought Qin Xue over and bought a high-end apartment in the city to raise him. He didn't even mention marriage, he just fell in love with her.The rich businessman still flies all over the country all year round, and maybe he is also dating other people. Qin Xue never cares about these things. As long as the rich businessman gives her pocket money, she doesn't feel that she is at a disadvantage if she keeps getting along like this.

Chen Ying was doing part-time cleaning in a beauty salon in the imperial capital, and occasionally recognized Qin Xue who came here for consumption.

At that time, Chen Ying was working hard with a big belly, but when she asked, she came to the capital alone, and the child’s father was nowhere to be seen. Qin Xue was very sympathetic, and gave Chen Ying all the cash she brought with her, and helped Zhang Luo to make Chen Ying a private family. The baby was born in the hospital.Back and forth, human favors plus the cost of giving birth in the hospital cost far more than 5000 yuan, but Qin Xue insisted that it was only to repay the friendship back then.And Qin Xue has repeatedly stated that she has pocket money every month, and she is not in a hurry to ask Chen Ying to pay back the money.

Tong Tong hugged He Xiaolu into the high-end residential area where Qin Xue lived, and saw an old man dressed in sloppy and rustic clothes came out with two security guards in his arms. The accent is so heavy that I can't make out what I'm saying.This old man was out of tune with the elegant environment of the entire community, and those passers-by wearing famous brands all looked sideways and avoided him when they saw this.

Tong Tong secretly rejoiced that both he and He Xiaolu had changed into new clothes, and with He Liantian's good looks, the father and son would not be disgusted by the people in this community.

Ringing the doorbell, announcing her name, and entering Qin Xue's apartment, Tong Tong noticed that there were still tears on Qin Xue's exquisite makeup. It was obvious that she had just cried and hadn't had time to clean up.

"What happened to Miss Qin?" Tong Tong asked.

Qin Xue hastily wiped away her tears and stabilized her mood by serving tea and water. Obviously she didn't want to mention this matter, she just said: "It's nothing, it's all a family matter and has nothing to do with you. Xiao He, why did you come to see me today? is it? But is there any difficulty?"

Tong Tong didn't ask any more if he didn't tell the truth, and took out 5000 yuan in cash, put it on the coffee table, and said politely: "This is the salary I got from working on the construction site some time ago. It's been almost three years since I owed you this money, and even though she's gone, the debt must be paid back, so that she won't feel at ease in Jiuquan."

Qin Xue hastily declined: "It's not easy for you to earn money with a child alone, and I'm not in a hurry. Besides, it's Chen Ying's business. She left in a hurry, and I couldn't go to condole. I'm sorry She's gone. I absolutely don't intend to ask for this arrears. "

"Since I am married to Chen Ying, the debt she owes is my business. I promised her to repay the money together with her when she was here. During this time, I have also earned some money one after another, and my money is more abundant. , please accept this kindness. Without you back then, Chen Ying and the others would not have been safe for their mother and child."

Seeing He Xiaolu snuggling close to He Liantian's side, cute and trusting, Qin Xue knew that He Liantian really raised this child as his own.I can't help but sigh in my heart that Chen Ying is really lucky. In this life, I am lucky to meet such a good man as He Liantian.Not to mention handsome, hard-working and good-natured, although he has no education and no money, he has ambition and integrity.

"In this case, I can collect the money, but... the debt is settled, and the favor is still there. Although I have lived in the imperial capital for a few years, I have few real friends. Xiao He, if you think highly of me, let's continue to be friends, okay?" During the holidays, bring Xiaolu to see me." Qin Xue said sincerely.

"Of course. It's just that your family doesn't come to reunite during the New Year's Eve? If poor friends like us come at that time, wouldn't it be annoying?"

Qin Xue smiled sadly, and finally let out all the things that were pent up in her heart and had no place to confide:

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. My parents have always regarded me as a cash machine. They have always thought of using various excuses to squeeze money from me. They really thought that I married a rich man and could support them for the rest of their lives. Hehe , my younger brother is too lazy to work. He graduated from junior high school and didn’t even pass the technical secondary school.

They actually wanted me to pay another 20 yuan for my brother to marry a wife.My money didn't come from the wind. After buying the house, I didn't have much money left, so they said that if I didn't pay, they would marry my sisters to the blind and lame in exchange for money.After I heard about it, I quietly helped my two younger sisters escape from the house.Naturally, there was a quarrel at home, and my father even came to the imperial capital to force me to give money.

I told the truth just now that I was acting as a mistress for an old man. There are many women in all over the world. If you are happy, come to my place to play and reward some money. If you are unhappy, you will not see anyone for a year or so.My father immediately turned his back on him, saying that my ancestors would lose all face by doing such a dirty job.He has the nerve to say that?I don't like my money dirty, and I don't want to give it to them anymore.Apart from making troubles and spending their coffin books, has his precious son honored them for a penny since he was born?

I was so angry that I asked the community security to drive him away.The ID card is in my hand, and from now on I will cut off all contact with them.My hometown is my household registration, so I don't care about it.I heard that the household registration book is only used when getting married. It is impossible for a person like me to marry seriously, and they can't handle me. "

Tong Tong agreed with Qin Xue's decision from the bottom of his heart.There are many patriarchal native families who dislike their daughters for being useless and rely on their daughters to support the family.Qin Xue finally saw this clearly, she has the courage and has worked hard to get rid of this kind of entanglement, which is really admirable.

Seeing that He Liantian also had a face of approval, Qin Xue became more confident and said: "Chen Ying persuaded me back then, and I took this road because my family didn't listen to Chen Ying's words. Now I don’t want to live like this anymore. I should do something more meaningful when my youth is short. The rich businessman made an agreement with me that if one day I don’t want to be with him, I will break up peacefully. He will compensate me for the loss of my youth, and I will no longer Keep pestering him, let's get together and get away."

"So you..." Tong Tong vaguely guessed Qin Xue's plan.

"That's right, I have already proposed to break up with the rich businessman, and he agreed. He has given me pocket money every month these years, and the breakup fee is probably not too much. I will move out when I rent a house in a few days. I want to be self-reliant and do some serious business, but I really don’t know what I can do.”

With a thought in mind, Tong Tong comforted her first, then changed the subject: "Speaking of doing business, I happen to have an idea, maybe it's suitable for you."
