Qiao Nan's wedding was not completed, and the family shifted their attention to Qiao Lu. Qiao Nan had already taken off a layer of skin when she was preparing for the wedding, and if Qiao Lu and they got married in the capital, they might have to take off ten layers of skin.

Xiaolin's work in Beijing is quite smooth, but with his and Qiao Lu's salary level, he will definitely not be able to afford a house. The two have discussed this issue more than once, and what Xiaolin means is that his parents have already saved some of the funds for him to buy a house, plus the savings of the two and the house purchase subsidy given by the company, he can make enough for a down payment to buy a smaller apartment in the fifth ring road.

"Lulu, let's take a long-term view. In five or six years, we will all become the backbone of the workplace, and wages will definitely explode. When the time comes, we will change to a better house. ”

It is indeed not easy for ordinary people to do happy events. When discussing marriage, Qiao Lu always saw Qiao Nan tightening her belt and desperately saving money. The hardships of her younger brother are still vivid, so Qiao Lu can better understand the pressure of her boyfriend. Fortunately, Xiao Lin's family is much more prosperous than Qiao's family, and Xiao Lin himself also has the ability to make money, so he is still much easier than Qiao Nan.

At that time, the campus network they commonly used had completely declined, and fewer and fewer people used it, and more people turned to Weibo and Moments. After Qiao Nan went to the UK, he should have changed to a new mobile phone, because his original mobile phone could not download WeChat, but not long after he went to the UK, he added his sister and sister's WeChat friends, and it was much more convenient to connect.

Later, they found out that it was Wen Jing who gave him a new mobile phone. Wen Jing said: "He is too economical, it's nothing in China, but he can't be too shabby in front of foreigners!"

Qiao Nan is often ridiculed by his sister as an old man, but he will soon become proficient in operating a smartphone. He doesn't post on Moments, but he still shares his daily life with his family.

After he went abroad, the whole person looked a lot sunny. One day in November, he sent his sister a picture of him standing in a leafy wood, carrying a gun, his eyes struck and full of strength, almost exactly like he had been years ago.

Qiao Lu liked to see her brother's radiant appearance, and she asked, "Aren't you going to do research?

"I played with the confrontation drills that their undergraduate exchange students participated in and served as a staff officer for them. ”

"Can your eyes do it?"

"It's good, out of the way. ”

Qiao Nan said this, and Qiao Lu stopped asking.

She told her brother that she planned to buy a house in Beijing and get married in the next year. She calculated with Xiaolin that the money for the down payment could still be scraped together, so that her younger brother didn't have to worry about money and just take care of himself outside.

Qiao Nan quipped: "Maybe we can have a wedding together next year!"

"Haha, I hope so. Pray for you and don't change the date of your marriage. ”

My sister is doing well, and Qiao Nan is also happy for her. After he "intimidated" Wang Chao once, she didn't do anything demonic. Qiao Nan didn't dare to take it lightly, and still paid close attention to her whereabouts. I heard that she left the well-known news outlet and turned to a fledgling Internet company.

Just like the people Qiao Lin met in the elevator, classmate Wang, who was once full of superiority, kept going downhill, how could her psychology not be distorted?

Maybe it was the unsatisfactory work that made her have no energy to harass Qiao Lu again, but this year, Qiao Lu has lived comfortably. The company of her boyfriend made her no longer lonely, and in her spare time, she also practiced yoga, learned to swim, and her complexion became better and better.

One day, she went back to the dormitory with Qiao Lin, there was a seller of fried chestnuts with sugar near the school, Qiao Lu bought two packs, and the uncle asked, "Girl, how old are you this year?"

Qiao Lu was stunned, not knowing how to answer, Qiao Lin was so happy that she couldn't straighten her waist and said, "My sister just went to graduate school this year!"

Of course, the sisters finally told the truth, the elder sister is a very young associate professor, and the younger sister is the one who has just entered graduate school. It was only then that Jolene discovered that her sister was in really good shape, young and energetic, like a college student.

My sister's college career should be very bleak. In her best years, she always held her breath. It wasn't until she was thirty years old that she stopped competing with herself and achieved reverse growth.

Thinking of this, Jolene hung on her sister's arm and was reluctant to come down. Such a sister is so likable!

Christmas is approaching, and Wen Jing has set off for the UK again. Although Wen Jing prepared a lot of delicious food for her boyfriend, Qiao Lu also carefully purchased and picked out a few traditional Beijing snacks, so that her brother, who loves sweets, could taste the taste of the motherland. In addition, he also bought a woolen sweater for Qiao Nan, for fear that he would be reluctant to spend money and starve and freeze outside.

Xiao Lin accompanied the whole process and said with a smile: "You, who are sisters, really have the heart to never finish." ”

"Qiao Nan was raised by me, even if he reaches the age of eighty, I still miss him. Qiao Lu also bought a woolen sweater for Xiao Lin, and joked: "You can't bully me, if Qiao Nan knows, he will fight with you." ”

"It's too late for me to feel sorry for you, how can I still bully you?"

Qiao Lu is not only good to her family, but also in the domestic academic circle, her personality is also very commendable. Not long ago, Peking University held a society, and the participants came from all over the country. There is a young lecturer from a well-known 211 university in the south, who is an admirer of Qiao Lu. After the meeting, he offered to visit Qiao Lu's laboratory, and Qiao Lu readily agreed.

Although there are still many gaps between the current experimental conditions and her laboratory in the United States, there are all that should be available, and they can still meet her needs for experiments. There is a cardboard box at the door of the laboratory, and some experimental equipment is placed in it. Qiao Lu said casually: "I said it was going to be scrapped last week, why haven't I thrown it away?"

Hearing that these were all equipment to be scrapped, the young lecturer blurted out: "If it is to be scrapped, can I take it with me?"

The man's expression was earnest, with a hint of embarrassment.

But Qiao Lu didn't laugh at him, he was not the first to pick up rags in a high-end laboratory, and he wouldn't be the last. Some of the PhDs she knew had also brought back the equipment that had been discarded from the laboratory back to China to meet their own needs for experiments.

Are the experimental conditions really that bad? Maybe!

For example, when Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, what the girls and wives were accustomed to or couldn't look at, Grandma Liu would treat as a baby.

Qiao Lu hurriedly squatted down, picking through the pile of equipment, and finding some that were not faulty, and he could take them away if he needed them. She also quipped: "Back then, laboratories in the United States often threw things away, and I also felt that it was a waste, so why didn't I think about bringing them back?"

Qiao Lu is not very old, but her qualifications should not be underestimated. When reviewing papers, the checks are very strict, and when writing suggestions, they will be considered and considered, and they must not hurt people too much if they are clear. Gradually, her high emotional intelligence also became popular in academic circles like her warm-heartedness.

The work is smooth, the love is sweet, Qiao Lu and Xiaolin are also a pair who envy others. Xiao Lin taught her to play stocks and invest in some financial products. Qiaolu, a financial management Xiaobai, is always timid, for fear of losing all her money, but Xiaolin's calm and relaxed appearance makes her feel that it is still worth a try.

After earning money, she was as happy as a little girl, but she still didn't know how she earned it ==

Well, there will always be some shortcomings. Qiao Nan, who is brave and resourceful, is emotionally straightforward like a fool; Qiao Lu is a scientific research achievement production machine, but after working for so long, the composition of the salary is still not clear.

Xiao Lin likes her ignorant state, and still patiently guides her which products to buy. Qiao Lu was puzzled: "Since you can make so much money, why don't you buy it yourself?"

"I'm a financial practitioner. Xiao Lin said: "There are rules, we can't open an account." ”

Oh, I see, Qiao Nan can't open an account, so the job of investing and making money can only fall to two girls.

After hearing about their "rules", Qiao Lu repeatedly told him not to cross the line, and Xiao Lin said: "Since I have stepped into this industry, I have a sense of proportion." I know what to do and what not to do. ”

Qiao Lu trusts him very much, and her colleagues gradually know that her boyfriend is a financial talent, and now he is a senior white-collar worker, but in time, he will inevitably become a gold collar in the future, so her colleagues are very envious of Qiao Lu. There are also old shareholders who ask her to find out some inside information, but Qiao Lu herself can't figure out those jargons, and she herself admits that she is just a puppet manipulated by her boyfriend.

......

This kind of ridicule can also be regarded as another show of affection!

Before Christmas, Qiao Lu received an email from the bearded Chris, who was coming to Beijing on a business trip, hoping to meet Qiao Lu.

Qiao Lu was quite embarrassed. If it was a reception, the bearded man had expressed a crush on her, and although she didn't respond, there was always a past. She is now talking about marriage with her boyfriend, and it is not good to see him alone, and if she does not receive her, the family has taken care of her in the United States for several years, and this kind of favor will always have to be repaid.

She asked Kobayashi to accompany her, but he had to go on a business trip and couldn't come back on weekends. He didn't care at all about this little thing: "People come from afar, it doesn't hurt if you receive it, and I won't think nonsense." ”

"My classmates are foolish, you can't stand it, this foreigner once chased me, aren't you afraid that he will confess to me again?"

Xiao Lin raised his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "I still think my charm is greater. ”

Jokes aside, he finally suggested that Jolene go with him, so that nothing would go wrong.

At the end, Xiao Lin said: "Professor Qiao, we still have to show our mind and welcome an international friend from afar. Go with peace of mind and don't be afraid. ”

The day the bearded man came, it was the rumored end of the world. After thinking about it, Qiao Lin still wanted to spend it with Sun Ruiyang. Qiao Lu couldn't understand her brain circuit, why did she care about those trivial rumors?

"And what if the rumors come true?"

Qiao Lu gradually lost patience: "What if...... In case that happens, we'll be done together!"

"That's going to be the end with the most important people. ”

“...... It turns out that your most important person is Sun Ruiyang!" Qiao Lu made fun of her sister, and her heart was a little astringent: "Then what are we?"

In Jolene's heart, family has the same weight as lovers. But when the disaster came, the scale in her heart was biased towards Sun Ruiyang.

Qiao Lu stopped teasing her and asked, "Then you have been with Sun Ruiyang all day today?"

"Hmmm......"

"What about at night?"

Jolene swallowed and said, "It depends!"
