Chapter 11 On How to Interview
Xu Yongyi and Xie were both moved.
"Sister Xi'er......" Xie didn't know what to say.
Xu Xi was not used to facing this, so he quickly changed the topic and said to Xu Yongyi: "Uncle, then we will go to the county tomorrow for the exam." ”
She remembered a question: "Is it possible to stay in a girls' college?" ”
Xu Yongyi was stunned for a moment: "I didn't expect this, so I didn't ask." ”
"Let's ask tomorrow." Xu Xidao.
She thought about it, beckoned the couple into the hall and sat down, then looked at the two of them and said, "If Xu Xue and I both enter the school, and there is no place to stay in the school, what are my uncles and aunts going to do?" ”
Both frowned and pondered.
Xu Xi didn't wait for the two to talk, and said, "It's better for us to move into the city and live, just live in my house." ”
Xie wanted to speak when he heard this, but Xu Xi hurriedly stopped: "Auntie, don't refuse first, listen to me." ”
"You see, my brother is also studying in the county, Xiaoxue and I are also studying in the county, and my uncle is also running to the county all day long, which means that four of the five members of the family are in the county. Wouldn't it be more convenient for us to move to the city? What's more, it's too hard for my uncle to walk the streets and alleys like this, so it's better to do a small business in the city. ”
She looked at Xie: "I know that my aunt is reluctant to give up the pigs and chickens at home. But in fact, raising pigs and chickens is hard work and the income is not much. It's better for the aunt to do a little business casually in the city, and the income is not less than raising pigs and chickens at home, and she can take care of Brother Chongwen and Sister Xiaoxue without being tired. ”
Before Xie Shi could speak, Xu Yongyi smiled bitterly: "But how can small business be so easy to do?" It is necessary to have capital, good vision, and accurate entry into the industry. ”
He had been pondering this for a long time.
He is not a pedantic person, although he will not occupy the house in the city, but he will not refuse to borrow it to make a living. After earning money, he gave Xu Xi a dowry; What's more, if their family is good, Xu Xi will be able to find a better family, and he will be able to support Xu Xi more in the future.
But after thinking about it, he didn't think of anything that could make money, have little investment, and have little risk.
People like them have no capital and can't afford the loss of investment failure. So I didn't dare to borrow money to do business at all.
Xu Xi said: "Let me think about it these days. Or what inspiration can be given to the uncle to think of a good livelihood. ”
It's not like she can't give advice. It's just that she's just arrived, and she can't figure out what the situation is, and she has to do some research to find out what deals can be done.
One thing is fortunate that the original owner is a cowardly little pitiful and stupid person in the plot. The novel does not write why she became like this, but Xu Xi feels that she should have become like this after returning to the Hou Mansion due to various environmental influences.
What was the character before entering the Hou Mansion, the novel was not written. But Xu Xi pulled it in the memory of the original owner, and found that the original owner grew up in the city since he was a child, and he was the daughter of Xiucai, who knew how to read and had some knowledge, in front of the villagers of Xiaorong Village and Xu Yongyi's family, he was actually quite confident, and his style of speaking and doing things was not too different from Xu Xi.
Xu Xi has the memory of the original owner, and a slight change in the original owner's style of acting, coupled with the influence of the Hou Mansion to take over this factor, the change in her personality will not arouse the suspicion of Xu Yongyi's family.
In addition, although the two families are relatives and have been moving around all year round, they don't get along day and night after all. Xu Xiucai Xu Yongzeng only has such a daughter, and he is very dedicated to his daughter's education. What skills he taught Xu Xi, Xu Yongyi's family didn't know.
The Xu family and his wife died one after another, which was a great blow to the original owner. She was silent for a long time, often shutting herself in the door to read and write, ignoring the world. In the past six months, I have gradually improved, but I still can't recover the liveliness and ability of my parents. In order not to cause Xu Xi's mood fluctuations, Xu Yongyi's family did not dare to mention what happened in the city before in front of her.
Therefore, what Xu Xi's real temperament is, and what his own ability is, the second room of the Xu family does not understand.
This gives Xu Xi a lot of room to play, so as not to collapse the character.
Xu Yongyi's heart was relieved, and he smiled: "Okay, then uncle is looking forward to you." "He doesn't have to make decisions now, he doesn't have that much pressure.
When Xu Xue heard that she would have the opportunity to enter the school, she was so excited that she didn't sleep all night. The next day, I followed my father, brother and Xu Xi into the carriage.
Before leaving, Xu Xi pulled Xie Shi and muttered a good advice.
It was a person from Xujia Village who drove the car, and Xu Yongyi asked him to send a few boys to the school first, and then turned around and went to the girls' academy.
The women's academy is not remote, it is a few dozen meters behind the county office, and a spacious alley enters.
They arrived early, but at this time there were many horse-drawn carts and mule carts parked at the entrance of the alley, and they were almost blocking the alley from getting in and out. In addition to this, many people poured here, blocking an alley. Some of them are obviously sent by the family to the girls in the family to take the entrance examination.
The mule cart in Xiaorong Village had to stop at a great distance from the academy.
"Get out of the car, we'll have to walk through." Xu Yongyi said.
He really didn't expect so many people to come.
Xu Xi looked at the many people and cars coming from all directions behind him, and saw that some of them were rich and noble, and some were ordinary people, but even ordinary people were decently clean like them, and there was no such yellow-skinned and ragged clothes. She couldn't help frowning.
It seems that there are many people like her who understand that the women's academy is the way to advancement. With so many people coming to take the exam, the number of places is limited, which shows that the competition is fierce.
"There are so many people, only fifty people are recruited, so the exam is not very strict? We...... Is there hope for us? Xu Xue saw so many people, and she completely lost confidence.
Xu Xi said: "When you go in for a while, don't look around, don't laugh with people casually; When someone talks to you or asks you something, you answer softly, with a kind face, and don't speak in a wordy way, just be concise and shocking. Be polite to people, even if someone is offended, don't argue with others, but don't be too weak, just pay tribute to the past. ”
Seeing that Xu Xue and Xu Yongyi both looked at her in surprise, Xu Xi didn't care, and continued: "In addition, when the female master says something, you must listen carefully and do what she asks; Don't care about any unusual behavior of others, just do your best. ”
Xu Xi asked Xu Xue according to the interview situation in his previous life.
In her mind, the enrollment of this women's academy must not only look at talent and talent. Otherwise, it would not be called a college, but a talent competition.
Since it is a college, it must first look at morality, IQ, emotional intelligence and other aspects.
Those who have good conduct and high IQ and EQ are good seedlings, and they will be very good if they are cultivated in the academy.
On the contrary, some people are bad at the root, and the little time spent in class in the academy and the little energy that the husband separated, and the success rate of wanting to completely correct a person's behavior is extremely low; A person who is as stupid as a pig can't learn anything, and it is difficult to become a talent after ten years of study; With low emotional intelligence, one mouth will offend people, and such a student will inevitably ruin the reputation of the college when he goes out.
Therefore, the women's academy must select good seedlings to cultivate.
And how to choose good seedlings? In Xu Xi's opinion, in addition to the exam, it is very likely that there are other tricks, which are all inadvertent, and they are carried out without everyone's defense.
Therefore, as soon as you enter the academy, you must pay attention to your words and deeds.
