113 New beginnings, new beginnings
When they arrived at the door, the group got out of the car, and the gate was already open! Little Lai's mother is busy in the kitchen!
"I'm back!" Xiao Lai says this every time!
"Xiao Lai, you two wash your faces and hurry up to eat!" Her mother was very happy this time, her child was finally settled, and she didn't dare to say anything unpleasant!
"Let's go, go up to my house!" Rai with su
Look at this, look at that!
"It's okay! You have such a big bookshelf, full of books! ”su
A little surprised, Xiao Lai, who is usually inconspicuous, will also love literature!
"Alas, this was given by others when I was a child, and there were also things that others didn't want, I kept them all and donated some of them!" Xiao Lai doesn't like to show off, she likes to keep a low profile! "This bookshelf was also built with the help of relatives later!"
"It looks very old!" su
I like antiques more, and when he sees the things that Xiao Lai collects, he appreciates this very much, which can be regarded as finding a common hobby between the two of them!
"When I went to your house, didn't your dad also like to collect antiques? He also showed me a handful of his collectibles at the time! "Xiao Lai refers to su
Those ancient coins of the house! "It's been years, and I'm not worth anything compared to your dad's stuff!" Xiao Lai is still very good at it, and he has some research on jade!
The two of them were talking, and Xiao Lai's mother came to knock on the door!
"Xiao Lai, hurry up and eat, it's cold!"
"Okay, got it!"
"In a moment, your uncle will come over!" Xiao Lai's mother is always like this, she likes to keep urging!
"yes, got it!" Xiao Lai was a little puzzled, "Why did he come, someone must have gone to his house this time."
There were all kinds of delicious food and drink prepared on the table, and Xiao Lai and the two of them didn't see each other so much, they were already hungry, and the food on the table was swept away.
Xiao Lai also knows very well that parents can't speak, and the questions they ask are all elementary school students' questions! She simply took su with her
Go to the yard to see the black chicken and the cloud pigeon!
"This is a vegetable garden, planted with a lot of long beans, autumn cucumbers, enzyme beans, tomatoes, peppers, and loofahs!"
"Wow, there's a vine here with grapes hanging all over it!"
"Well, it blooms twice a year and bears fruit twice! Rose type! ”
"You still plant jujube trees?"
"These two crooked-necked jujube trees were planted before I was born, and it's strange now, but I haven't seen any changes, and decades have passed!"
"Why is this chick black?" su
It's like an alien, and I've never seen anything!
"This is my mother's black chicken, its nutritional value is relatively high, and the yield is a bit low! It's all natural, without any additives! ”
"You've got pigeons, wow, it's not dozens, it's a big patch, look at that bird droppings, it's all over the roof!"
"The number is too large, so I put a roof on them, cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and their little life is not bad!"
"Yes, the environment is very good!"
Now, someone's coming! Rai noticed, and she pulled Su
went downstairs, "My uncle is here, I want to talk to you."
"Xiao Lai, it's back!" Uncle is very enthusiastic and likes to joke with people!
"Uncle, you're here! Sit in the West House, and my dad will go up to the cellar to get you some fruit! "In Xiao Lai's parents, the house will sit north and face south, and it is divided into the west house, the south house, the north house and the east house! Westinghouse generally refers to the living room, which is used to entertain guests! The others are used as bedrooms, and every household will have a special cold room, a cellar dug in the yard! Ya pears and snow pears are abundant here, and every household will plant a few pear trees and fruit trees! In winter, if you can't finish eating, you will hide in the cellar, and the cold will not spoil these varieties!
"Don't be busy, I'll have something to do later!" Although the uncle is not his maternal uncle, he is still more respected among the elders!
"It's been a long time, let's talk, you go again!" Xiao Lai is very willing to chat with people, maybe he is usually used to being silent, but now that he has met his relatives, the conversation box has opened up all of a sudden!
"Where are you from?" Uncle suddenly asked him!
"Uncle asks you where your hometown is!" Xiao Lai also has to act as a translator, after all, his hometown is too fast, like a machine gun! su
I'm dumbfounded! He couldn't pick it up at all!
"He doesn't understand what we're talking about! His family is from Anhui Town, and his parents are doing a little business! ”
"What is he doing now?"
"Still in school, graduating next year!" Xiao Lai answered for him himself! There are some questions that she can talk about better than him!
"We have a good young man here, how do you choose him?"
"We've got our certificates!" In other words, it is useless for the uncle to say more, because no one can be the master of Xiao Lai!
"Huh? Is it? So does he get paid now? ”
"No, but the school has a subsidy, it's enough!" After the whole conversation, the uncle didn't say a word of blessing or congratulations at all, Xiao Lai had roughly guessed, after all, he didn't want Xiao Lai to live better than their children or grandchildren, this is also what other relatives think, they think that a family like Xiao Lai, such an unreliable parent, can educate what excellent children? So Xiao Lai knew the other party's intention from the beginning!
"Then you won't be coming back?"
"I'll come back when I have time!" The uncle is a smart man, and he didn't mention anything about his granddaughter again! Even if he mentions it, Xiao Lai won't care, after all, he doesn't care about the old man and uncle, how can he be embarrassed to mention conditions to Xiao Lai?
"Okay, then I'll rest assured!" Uncle also got up and prepared to go back!
After staying at home for the night, Xiao Lai returned the next morning! On this trip home, her uncle also saw that Xiao Lai was an extremely smart person, and when he talked to Xiao Lai, he couldn't find a single loophole! He should have realized that "Xiao Lai is not a simple person".
Xiao Lai's changes are really quiet, which has a lot to do with the books she has read, the experiences she has walked, and the world she has seen! No one would have predicted that in the future, Xiao Lai would be such a shrewd talent! Even an eighty-seven-year-old man like Uncle is sleek and sophisticated can't talk about her, it seems that Xiaolai's double business has broken through a certain boundary! Xiao Lai's maternal grandfather and uncle were quite business-minded, which is now called "financial business", and Xiao Lai can be said to have completely inherited this fine tradition of theirs!
Xiao Lai is also ready to change jobs! I went to apply for an editorial department, and I didn't wait long, Xiaolai received an interview notice from that family!
This was also very unexpected! This is too fast, Xiao Lai is a little puzzled!
"How much do you know about the editorial role?" The first sentence of the president of the editorial department was a little questionable about Xiao Lai's background and experience!
"From the perspective of the whole article structure, the topic selection, abstract, CLC number, Chinese and English, chapters, graphic and graphic design, content, and literature punctuation have all been systematically studied!" Xiao Lai is still very confident!
"What's the most important thing about a journal?"
"Impact Factor!"
"How much do you know about our journal?"
"It's about 0.38! It's just that I can't find it on the Internet, I don't know why? ”
"We're working on this, and we'll find out soon! How soon can you be hired? "The other party seems to be in a hurry!
"A week!" Xiao Lai also wants to think about it!
The next morning, the academic office of a language university called her!
"Hello, is it Rai? We are here in the Academic Affairs Office of the Language University, and I see your resume, which is very suitable for the position we are currently recruiting, I would like to ask, are you interested in us? ”
"What kind of content are you doing?"
"Some student archives, material distribution and other work, if you are interested, you can come for an interview!"
"Excuse me, how is the treatment of this position? Double rest or single day off? ”
"Single off, work on Saturday, rest on Sunday!"
"Oh, well! Then I won't think about it, thank you for the kindness of the teacher! ”
"Oh, it's okay, I need to call again!"
Single holiday, it's really a bit inappropriate! Xiao Lai is still willing to do paper editing, at least the work is right! Teaching affairs can be done by ordinary people, and there is not much room for promotion and skills!
A week later, Xiaolai successfully settled in this editorial department! When she asked the colleague who handled the onboarding process for her, she understood, "It turns out that she wants to leave as soon as possible, so she let Xiaolai join the company so quickly"!
"So you've already found a new position?"
"I've taught myself a lot of design software, and now there's a company that lets me join as soon as possible!"
"That's good!"
"This unit may not be as good as you think, but the work is relatively easy and the people are good!"
"Okay!"
After all, Xiao Lai has been working in the editing industry for many years, and he loves this industry very much, no matter how he changes to any other industry, Xiao Lai is really not interested!
This industry is like this, I have been doing paper editing for a long time, and the most high-end skills I have mastered are content design, table design, and further speaking, formula editing, but this is not the ultimate trend, only if you really master the essence of editing, you can write, organize, compile, come and go freely, this is considered to enter the highest realm! In addition to the experts in various disciplines, the editors can basically be said to be experts on the whole paper!
Although it is a science and engineering thesis, Xiao Lai adapts very quickly! She can even win the most difficult medical articles, and these science and engineering content is not so difficult!
There is a backlog of manuscripts received, and Xiaolai needs to work overtime to finish it! Some authors are in a hurry to use the manuscript, but they need to produce a clear sample, which is also a test for Xiaolai! She didn't learn i
desig
Designing software typesetting requires a lot of brain capacity to support!
The departing colleague had only taken her for a week, and many problems still needed to be dealt with little by little!
"This text needs to be redesigned!"
"There is also this paragraph that needs to be reset!"
