(The storyline is completely fictional, the official must not sit in the right seat, if there is any similarity, it is purely a coincidence)

The second landlord, Mr. Chen, was packing his things and was going to move back to the house where they lived. When it comes to the reason why he moved back, it's a long story.

When Mr. Chen was born, it was the second half of the year, but unlike many people called Zhang* and Wang*, with the imprint of time, he has a good name, called Chen Shengshi, probably with his parents' expectations for the times.

Mr. Chan Seng Shi Chan is the second landlord of the house at 28 Hedri Road. Mrs. Chan, a postdoctoral fellow in biochemistry at the University of Oxford, does not live at 28 Highry Road, but in a large garden house in a nearby suburb, which he bought with a loan two years ago.

Oxford City, *picturesque. On this day, Mr. Chen was free, tidying up the flowers and plants in his bungalow, when he heard the postman knocking on the door, he threw a letter through the letter slot on the door, he picked it up and opened it to see that it was a notice from the British Immigration Department: In two months, the couple will be able to apply for permanent residency, and he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

Mr. Chen and his wife have lived in the UK for nearly 10 years, experienced a lot of hardships, and gradually lived a comfortable and stable life, Mr. Chen is very satisfied, although Mrs. Chen has been studying and doing research, only subsidies, no fixed income, but now he has a monthly income of more than 3,000 pounds (at that time, the pound was expensive, more than 30,000 yuan), the two have also lived in this garden house, Mr. Chen is very economical, driving a 3700 pounds bought second-hand old BMW car (an old car with occasional small problems), The young couple enjoy the idyllic scenery and pleasant environment of England every day, and with Mr. Chen's personality, they can be said to be complacent, and if they win the permanent residence, it will almost be the pinnacle of life.

That night, Mr. Chen happily took the letter to tell Mrs. Chen the good news, and wanted to sell a pass, tease her, and ask her to guess what the content was: "What do you think the notice will be from the immigration bureau?" ”

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chen, a postdoctoral fellow, took advantage of his unpreparedness, drew the letter and read it quickly, returned it to Mr. Chen with an expressionless face, and said: "If you want me to say, sell the garden house and return to China with me to start a business......

Mr. Chen was stunned, angry and anxious, she didn't take such an important notice from the immigration bureau seriously at all! Moreover, I didn't discuss it at all, why do you have to go back to China!

"What nerves do you have?" Mr. Chen held back for a while before he spoke softly.

Mrs. Chen said, "I'm seriously discussing with you, not just joking. ”

The honest and diligent Mr. Chen is not highly educated, and originally everything was "women singing and husbands with them", but this time he couldn't accept Mrs. Chen's idea at all.

Mr. Chen said: "Li Tianying, I am 42 and you are 39, we have already discussed, as soon as your postdoctoral fellowship is over, you will go to the university to teach or go to work in the company that gave you an offer in London, and then the most important thing is to have a child as soon as possible." You are suddenly going back to China now, which brain is wrong? What nerves do you have? ”

Mrs. Chen Li Tianying said: "You, look at the general direction of things, and you can't look at the eyes!" ”

Mr. Chen said, "Am I a rat again? It's obviously all discussed, why did it suddenly change again? Back then, in China, you quit your high-paying job, lost your job in my country, and finally made up your mind to come to the UK, stayed for ten years, worked hard for ten years, had everything, and now you want to return to China? What are you going to do back? ”

Mrs. Chen said: "I am not impulsive, Shengshi, you should also step out of the 'comfort zone', learn more about China, and think about the future." ”

Mr. Chen smiled bitterly: "Li Tianying, you are understated, how much hard work we have paid in exchange for today, why do we have to toss back?" Go back and start from scratch, you thought it was that easy? ”

10 years ago, when she insisted on pulling Mr. Chen out of her homeland and coming to England, she also said "to find dreams, spread your wings, and embrace ideals", in the blink of an eye 10 years, time has passed, the rapid development of the country and the huge space make her tempted, Mrs. Chen made up her mind to return to China to find opportunities, to go back to fulfill her "Chinese dream", that posture, I can't wait to be a female Ma Yun.

She said: "Don't just focus on your second landlord, how old is a UK?" There are only 60 million people in total, less than the population of one of our provinces! What can you do by staying here? ”

Mr. Chen replied, "So what? Isn't it just pure when there are few people? ”

Mrs. Chen said, "When we go back, we have the opportunity to do something, do something big." ”

Mr. Chen was very dissatisfied: "There are 1.4 billion people in China, not one more of you, and no less of you, and people are waiting for you to go back and do big things?" You, unrealistic, full of fantasy, it's not that I don't love my homeland or don't love my country, but you are really too tossed, it was like this when you came to England, and now when you plan to go back, it's like this again! Tossing back and forth, what's the science? Blind toss! You're still a postdoc in biology, and doing things doesn't conform to the laws of biology at all! You're about to turn forty, and when we reach middle age, we should stabilize and settle down! ”

Li Tianying said: "Don't vent your emotions, let's analyze it carefully, whether we should go back or not." ”

Mr. Chen got angry and said, "You analyze it yourself, I know that how you analyze it is just to convince me, I think you are just beating dreams all day long!" Beat the dream and beat the brain! ”

Mr. Chen is a native of Shandong, his hometown is in Jiaodong, and his parents said that cooking is "beating rice", so dreaming, of course, is "beating dreams".

After that, the two kept talking and quarreling about this, Mr. Chen really couldn't help it, of course he couldn't resist the knowledgeable Mrs. Chen, debated her, after a fierce ideological struggle, a week later, he reluctantly agreed to her return to China for two years to try, sell the house himself, plus most of the savings in the past ten years, all support Mrs. Chen to return to China to start a business, but if the two years of entrepreneurship is not successful, Mrs. Chen must go back to the UK and continue to live a "small life" with him, and there is an additional condition - whether the business is successful or not within two years, Mrs. Chan has to plan to have a child as soon as possible. Mrs. Chen readily agreed, and was so excited that she kissed Mr. Chen's head.

After the two compromised with each other, Mr. Chen gritted his teeth with tears in his eyes, sold his beloved garden house as quickly as possible, and went to London's Heathrow Airport to send his wife back to China to start a business, and he had to move back to the small house he ran as a second landlord - 28 Hedri Road, where Jing Hao, Li Ruoshi and visiting scholar Mr. and Mrs. Bai lived. There was still a serious room in the house, and Mr. Chen thought that even if he had a new tenant in the future, he could live in the storage room or sleep in the living room.

After Mrs. Chen returned to China, she was full of vigor and devoted herself to the organic planting base project work of domestic collaborators, but the work was not as simple as she imagined, there were a lot of things messed up every day, and she needed to deal with all kinds of people, Mrs. Chen was actually a bookish person in her bones, and lived in the simple environment of Oxford for more than ten years, and experienced all kinds of troublesome people and things after returning to China, and soon felt the difficulty of starting a business...... If nothing else, just when she came to the office at seven o'clock in the morning, there were already several people waiting in line to talk to her, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and even Saturday and Sunday, someone called her early in the morning...... And everyone who comes to talk about things almost always comes to her with thorny problems to solve, but Mrs. Chen is very powerful, she always maintains a high-spirited state, no matter what problems she encounters, she will say to the other party: "Everything is solved!" ”

Mr. Chen called her and asked, "How is it?" Tired, right? ”

Every time, Mrs. Chen bragged: "It's not too tired, everything goes well, and there are always noble people to help." Putting down the phone, it was actually "a mess".

Mr. Chen guessed that it would not be easy on her side, after all, it was just beginning. But Mr. Chen didn't break her on the phone, she said everything over there, he just listened and said, "It's good, it's good." You also take care of yourself and don't get too busy......"

Mr. Chen actually hoped that she would mess up soon and go back to Oxford as soon as possible.
