Chapter 305: Preparing to Return Home
Chapter 305
Although Cheng Jie's daughter is the same age as Zhang Zhang, Zhang Zhang's education since childhood is different, because she knew that she was going to go abroad, so Chen Xin would teach him foreign languages in advance at home, and then stayed abroad for two or three years, so she didn't have to worry about language at all. But the little girl came over differently, she had to take an extra year of language courses, and it was impossible to be at the same level as Zhang Zhang.
"Okay, you hurry up and pack your things, Uncle Han has prepared a room for you, you have to send all your things over today, you have to go to learn chess with the teacher before school starts, and you will rely on yourself after I leave." ”
Chen Xin sat cross-legged on the ground, cleaned up the clothes he didn't wear, and later sent them to the waste clothes disposal point, where they would be uniformly disinfected and then distributed to those in need.
These old clothes are all good, most of them are Zhang Zhang's can't wear them, and there are new clothes that don't match his aesthetics. Before studying here, many of Chen Xin's classmates and compatriots liked to give clothes as gifts, especially Chinese classmates, basically Zhang Zhang's clothes were worn in the first year. In the past two years, there have been relatively few, and occasionally there is a new product, and a good relationship will send him one.
In addition, last year, Chen Xin and Zhang Zhang did a period of graphic promotion for a newly established small brand of clothing and bags, and the merchant contracted 24 sets of clothes for each of them a year and a new backpack every season, which is also the benefit promised in the commercial contract.
The brand owner originally wanted to continue, but Chen Xin politely refused, saying that he was going to return to China this year and had no way to complete the contract. As a continuation of the friendly relationship, Chen Xin took over a series of brand promotion from their network soft broadcasting, and although the money earned was not much, it was enough for Zhang Zhang's living expenses for a year.
As for tuition fees, Zhang Zhang is very confident that he will receive this year's scholarship.
Their school is not bad for money, but it is bad for honor. Therefore, as long as the student can win a domestic award for the school, he can enroll for free, if he can get an intercontinental award, the scholarship is appropriate, if it is an international award, it is simply the school to cover all your expenses and give pocket money.
But this award is not a random chicken feather competition award, it has to be a regular, traditional competition, or a high-tech award. This threshold restricts a lot of means of swiping prizes.
The chess that Zhang Zhang participated in belongs to the category of traditional competitions, and he is a cross-level competition, which has a higher gold content.
Chen Xin knows that Zhang Zhang has this talent, and usually pays attention to giving him more encouragement and trust, and Senior Brother Han himself likes to play chess, although he is good at Go, but he also has some understanding of chess, after watching Zhang Zhang's games, he has always suggested that Zhang Zhang take the professional path.
Zhang Zhang can enter this private school so easily, and his honor is also a very important capital.
"Okay, auntie, don't chatter, I know how to take care of myself, didn't I live well when I went to the training camp last year?"
This kid's personality doesn't know who he looks like, he's just a self-acquaintance, and he can talk to anyone. The temperament that Chen Xin has painstakingly cultivated has also given him a lot of points, at least now I haven't heard of anyone who particularly hates him.
Of course, it is a mediocre talent not to attract envy, but in this country that discriminates against skin color, Zhang Zhang has not been maliciously bullied, which is relatively rare. Most Chinese Americans will have some trouble in this regard, so it is inevitable that this private school, which is home to most Asian Americans and students of other colors, will be difficult to enter.
Chen Xin spent the whole day packing everything, sending away what should be sent away, and packing what should be packed.
This apartment is rented, and you have to contact the landlord to get it out. In addition, she also prepared a small gift for the landlady, which was a thank you gift for her usual care of Zhang Zhang.
"Madame Eileen, you're here, we're all packed. ”
Hearing the doorbell, Zhang Zhang ran to open the door and asked the landlord, Mrs. Elien, to come in and check the integrity of the furniture and objects.
"Mrs. Eileen, we are in a hurry tomorrow, and this is the cleaning fee for you to have someone come and clean it. Originally, they were supposed to clean all the rooms, but Chen Xin still had to go to the company, the time was uncertain, and she would return to China the day after tomorrow, so she was worried that it would be too late, so she could only use this method to ask the landlady to find someone to clean it.
Mrs. Eileen didn't refuse, she happily accepted the cleaning fee and handed out the biscuits and apple pie she baked.
"Knowing that you are leaving and will not be coming back, this is a little gift from me, lovely child, and I wish you success. ”
The chubby Mrs. Eileen is very good and makes good snacks, Chen Xin has learned a lot from her, and the blueberry pie she has recently learned to make is very popular.
In the evening, the aunt and nephew moved to Senior Brother Han's apartment in Dongcheng. This is an old building, with a history of more than 200 years, and the stone carvings on the balcony have witnessed the changes of the years.
Located on the third floor, the apartment is a small apartment with five bedrooms and two study rooms, as well as a basement and attached wine cellar.
Senior Brother Han usually lives here, and hires a housekeeper to take care of his three meals a day and tidy up his room. Chen Xin and Zhang Zhang have also been here before, and they have met the housekeeper's wife a few times, although the other party is a little unsmiling, but he is so meticulous and thoughtful that people can't find any fault.
The housekeeper's wife has a very general attitude towards Chen Xin, and even a little scrutiny, but she is rare and gentle towards Zhang Zhang, a sunny little boy, even Zhang Zhang's room is arranged by herself, and the other rooms are in charge of part-time workers.
Chen Xin knew that Mrs. Housekeeper was worried that she would worship money like those girls pestering Senior Brother Han, this thing really couldn't be explained, but next time she should be married, and Mrs. Housekeeper wouldn't be so defensive of her at that time.
turned an inspirational essay into a romance essay for the boss, and Chen Xin also felt very helpless.
She didn't spend the night here, but went to the company to re-edit the last episode of the last show with her colleagues from the project team. Originally, it wasn't her job, but she was a writer, and the effect of editing was a little different from the copy she wrote, so the director studied with the producer for a night, and finally decided to re-edit. But I don't know if the meaning she wants to express is too vague, and several versions of the editing are not perfect, so I asked Chen Xin to help refer to it.
Chen Xin doesn't know anything about editing, saying that it is a reference, and she can only use painting and language to present her ideas to the editor as much as possible, and then edit after the editor understands what she wants to express.
There is a lounge in the company, and I don't know what time it will be tonight, Chen Xin has to hurry up, and after sending Zhang Zhang, she picked up the cookies and pies made by Mrs. Eileen and left.
