Chapter 245: Career Planning
Wang Kenan's parents made up their minds this time not to let him have the opportunity to contact Zhao Xiaozi, so it has been two days, and he didn't find a chance to get a phone card.
After Zhao Xiaozi turned off the phone, she regretted it a little, and did countless psychological construction for herself before turning it back on.
Without waiting for Wang Kenan's call, Zhao Xiaozi suddenly felt a little tired and tired. In fact, she has always had this feeling, as early as when she first returned to China, and even when she was still in the United States, she has always had an indescribable burnout.
When the two first confirmed their relationship three years ago, there was still a lot of freshness;When Zhao Xiaozi went to the United States, the two got together less and left more, and the intersection was not too much, but it was okay;This time when she came back, Su Qingqing's incident happened, and the tiredness in her mind overflowed uncontrollably.
That's why she didn't contact Wang Kenan before she was "abducted", so she didn't even take out a minute after she came back, and called Wang Kenan first.
She threw her phone aside irritably, and buried her head deep in the quilt, which smelled of Wang Kenan......
"Hey......" Zhao Xiaozi sighed: "Go home, go home, you can't stay here!"
Speaking of which, Zhao Xiaozi came back this time, Zhao's father and Zhao's mother didn't know, of course, she was thinking about coming back a month in advance to spend her honeymoon with Wang Kenan. For this, Zhao Mu is also very supportive.
So when Zhao Xiaozi came home in the dust, Zhao's mother was still a little unconvinced: "Didn't you say that you would come back at the end of this month, why did you come back in the middle of the month?"
Zhao Xiaozi pursed her lips and didn't want to say more, if she and Wang Kenan didn't have a cold war, then they should indeed come back at the end of the month.
originally thought that Zhao's mother would keep asking questions, but she didn't expect her to change her normal routine and didn't say anything, nor did she ask about Wang Kenan. You must know that after Zhao Xiaozi returned to China in previous years, Wang Kenan personally sent it back, and that's it, the two of them are still tired and crooked.
In this regard, Zhao Xiaozi breathed a sigh of relief, if Zhao's mother asked Wang Kenan, she really didn't know how to explain, she couldn't tell her about "being abducted", if she really said it, I was afraid that not only Zhao's mother, but even Zhao's father would be scared half to death.
This harmonious situation lasted until Zhao's father returned.
Seeing Zhao Xiaozi coming back alone, Zhao's father just sighed deeply: "Girl, you are good, with your appearance and ability, it is very simple to find a good man, Xiao Wang...... Xiao Wang is good, but his parents are there...... Forget it, our precious girl, I can't bear to let you be wronged. ”
Zhao Xiaozi's face was a little red, thinking that the little thing between herself and Wang Kenan might be known by her parents, and she was a little embarrassed, but when she heard Zhao's father mention Wang Kenan's parents, she was a little confused.
"Does it have anything to do with Wang Kenan's parents?"
Zhao's father and Zhao's mother glanced at each other, obviously not expecting Zhao Xiaozi to know what was going on, and his expression was a little complicated for a while.
Father Zhao sighed: "Xiao Wang is a good boy! I guess I was afraid that you would think too much, so I never told you."
His parents talked to us on the phone several times, once when you decided to come back after a PhD abroad after just a year abroad, and they said that Wang Kenan was not too young to wait for you. ”
Zhao Xiaozi nodded, as if when she came back that year, Zhao's father and Zhao's mother did not have a very good attitude towards Wang Kenan, it turned out that it was because of this reason.
"And what happened later?" Zhao Xiaozi then asked.
"Later, I saw that the relationship between you and Xiao Wang was not affected, I thought that Xiao Wang had already explained to his parents, and he still supported you. Unexpectedly, seeing that you were coming back soon, his parents called us again, saying that Gao Shan couldn't climb our house......"
Zhao Xiaozi raised her eyebrows: "Can't climb high? I remember that I was going abroad to study for graduate school, but they agreed very much, and promised me that they would look at Wang Kenan and would not let him feel sorry for me." ”
"Yes, they said it then, and we all heard it, but it was different then. At that time, you went abroad to study for graduate school, and you had a face when you talked about it, your son was a graduate student, and the daughter-in-law you were looking for was also a graduate student.
But now aren't you a doctor, her son is only a graduate student after all, and he is still working, how can they be happy if you crush their son. Zhao's mother explained.
Zhao Xiaozi shook her head, she still didn't understand, wouldn't it be more indicative that her son could marry a Harvard doctor as a daughter-in-law?
Mother Zhao stroked Zhao Xiaozi's hair lovingly: "It's okay, it's normal that you don't understand these now, it's because they have eyes and don't know gold and jade, our Xiaozi is so powerful, they don't want to be their loss." ”
"Let's eat, let's eat, Xiaozi is rarely back, let's not talk about this!" Zhao's father opened up to eat, and Zhao's mother tacitly stopped mentioning this topic.
Even if Zhao Xiaozi was full of questions and incomprehension, she had to put it down for the time being.
"What are your plans in the future?" Halfway through the meal, Zhao's father suddenly asked about Zhao Xiaozi's future career plan.
"Professor Peter from Harvard asked me to stay in the United States, but I refused; Professor Xing told me to go back to J University to be a teacher when he knew I was coming back, and I said I wanted to consider it; and there was a counseling agency that asked me to be their hypnosis trainer, and I was still thinking about it. ”
"Why don't you stay in the United States? Professor Peter doesn't value you very much?" Zhao's mother seemed to be a little sorry that Zhao Xiaozi did not stay in the United States.
Professor Peter said that he would let me stay in the United States, and he also said that he would help me apply for a green card and take you all over when the time came. But I'm afraid that you won't be used to it, and besides, I'm not interested in that country that claims to be free and practical, but has a clear hierarchy, so it's better to come back. ”
"Yes, yes, it's good to come back, what do you want here, we two old ones can still help you, I really went to the United States, we can't help you, don't talk about it, we have to drag you back." "Father Zhao said everything after drinking.
"Also, I think it's good to be a teacher at J University, you graduated there, you are familiar with it, and it is easy to get started. What's more, the work of a university teacher is decent and easy, and I think this is good.
In the future, we can still visit you at any time, help you wash your clothes, cook or something, and know how you are doing...... Hey...... Look at me and I'm far away......"
Zhao Xiaozi couldn't help but feel a little sad when she heard the words of Zhao's father and Zhao's mother.
In fact, she wanted to go to that consulting agency to be a hypnosis trainer rather than staying at J University to teach, on the one hand, because the conditions they offered were quite good, and on the other hand, because her field of expertise could be fully developed.
However, J University is close to home, and it takes only an hour or two to take the high-speed train, so you can come back at any time; although the psychological counseling agency is a national chain, its headquarters is in Beijing, and if you go there to work, I am afraid you will have to stay in Beijing.
"What is a drag or not, you are my parents, how can you be considered a drag! I can also earn money now, and I will support you in the future!" Zhao Xiaozi showed a rare coquettish look, shaking Zhao's father's arm.
"Okay, good, good! Our family Xiaozi has grown up, and she can raise us!" Zhao's father was relieved.
"That's right, I brought you a lot of good things back, all of which were bought with my scholarships and research grants, all of which are luxury goods~~~" Luxury goods in the United States are much cheaper than those in China, and Zhao Xiaozi bought a lot of them with US dollars.
"Really? Did you bring back the lipstick you said last time?"
"Bring, brought, mother's personal speech, where do you dare not bring it!"
……
It was already afternoon after distributing the gifts, Zhao's mother asked Zhao Xiaozi to sleep and rest, and she went out to buy vegetables with Zhao's father, who naturally skipped work.
Zhao Xiaozi returned to the room and tossed for a while, but she couldn't sleep at all, so she thought about going grocery shopping with her parents, and when she came to the bedroom door, she found that Zhao's father and Zhao's mother were talking at this time.
Xu thought that Zhao Xiaozi had already slept, the door was ajar, and their voices were not deliberately lowered.
"Hey, I thought that Xiao Wang could persist like last time, but I didn't expect that this time only Xiaozi came back alone, and she didn't mention Xiao Wang a word......" Mother Zhao sighed, and there was an indescribable heaviness in her voice.
"It's not easy for Xiao Wang, sandwiched between his parents and Xiaozi, and these two children have no fate. Besides, Xiaozi is now a doctor, and his parents' worries are also reasonable, it can only be said that God is not beautiful!" Zhao's father's words were also indescribably regretful.
"Let me really say, when Xiaozi was still in high school, I was worried that she would not be able to marry in the future when she patronized her studies, and now it seems that this is not the case!
"Look at what you said, although Xiao Wang is a good match, he is not a good match, and now his parents have this attitude, even if Xiaozi marries, he will not be able to live a good life, so it is better to find another one.
Besides, if she goes to J University to become a teacher, it's not impossible to find a man who is a doctor like her, so don't worry too much. Zhao's father comforted Zhao's mother.
"How can you not be worried! I know Xiaozi's temper too well, she has always been blind, and finally she has the right eye, but the other party still dislikes her for her high education, you look at it, if she can't figure this out, maybe she won't find a boyfriend in the future. ”
"Can't you...... Where can I not find a boyfriend, she is only 26 now, give her a little more time for her to recuperate, and it will be fine slowly. ”
"Hey...... You don't understand, a woman's youth is only a few years, she has been focused on studying, and now she is afraid that she will not be able to get out of it. No, I have to go talk to Xiaozi and let her be a teacher at J University.
Although the scale of that psychological counseling agency is also very large, but the headquarters is in the capital, if she works in the capital, we are so far away, we can't care about her, I am afraid that she will drag on like this and become a leftover woman......"
"But Xiaozi likes hypnosis, it's more suitable for her to develop ......"
……
Zhao Xiaozi didn't want to listen to it anymore, but felt very heavy. It turns out that even if he is already a Ph.D. from Harvard, he can gain a foothold in society. In their opinion, they are still children, and they still have the heart to......
It's just why, he breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that his parents were no longer optimistic about himself and Wang Kenan......
