Chapter 26 Applying for a Translation Job



"Little sister, what kind of job are you looking for?"

Lin Qingxue was riding a bike. There were not many people on the road, so she sped up and rode at the same speed as her husband.

"Sister-in-law, although I graduated from junior high school, I have been teaching myself English and Russian. My eldest brother knows this. Over the years, my second brother has found many foreign language books for me from the garbage station."

Su Miantang said confidently that when she was taking care of Jiang Yang just now, she glanced around the room.

At the innermost part of the original body's bookcase, there were several foreign books wrapped in fake leather and old newspapers.

And a diary.

She flipped through a few pages and discovered that the original author had actually recorded the girl's thoughts in English and Russian.

The original body has a good sense of language and talent.

Although there are some words and grammatical errors, the overall meaning is expressed without any major problems.

This is the original body's hobby. I have never shown it in front of my family before, but that doesn't mean that my family doesn't know about it.

Sure enough, after she said that, except for the eldest sister-in-law who was a little surprised and happy, the eldest brother was very calm.

"Little sister, do you really know English and Russian?"

Lin Qingxue said in surprise, with admiration on her face.

Their high school teacher also taught them a few sentences of this English, but it was too difficult!

Su Miantang thought for a moment and said playfully:

"Thank you sister-in-law."

Lin Qingxue looked confused and said, "Thank you, I understand. What does the rest mean?"

When Su Mu heard his younger sister speak standard English, he was stunned for a moment, then he was ecstatic.

"Little sister, say one more word."

“Thank you, brother~”

Su Miantang fulfilled his elder brother's request, simple!

Su Mu stopped pedaling, parked the car on the side of the road, and said to his sister seriously:

"Little sister, I have a job you can try."

Su Miantang tilted his head, held onto the seat, and asked:

"What?"

"Translation manuscripts, our magazine's president is looking for translators, but no one has applied in half a month. Our president is so anxious that his mouth is bubbling..."

Su Mu's eyes were full of smiles. If he had known that his younger sister was good at English, he would have introduced her to him!

Of course, it’s not too late now.

If I can really get this translation job, not only can I get paid, but I can also leave a good impression on the president.

"Brother, I want to apply for the job. If I succeed, I can get paid, and it will also benefit you, right?"

Su Miantang thought for a moment, a cunning look on his face.

Su Mu reached out and gently tapped his younger sister's forehead, then asked:

"Yes, it will benefit me too. So, are you willing to help me?"

"Yes, I'd love to!"

Su Miantang failed to hide and was hit.

But I had a feeling in my heart that I could finally repay my elder brother.

Lin Qingxue heard it clearly and knew what it meant.

My husband's position in the newspaper is a bit awkward now, because he is young and has been promoted. Many of the people there are very experienced and like to make things difficult for him.

If my husband could show up in front of the president, there would be fewer obstacles and the road ahead would be smoother!

Oh, it’s right to love your little sister, pamper her!

Just pamper your sister, she can save the day at the critical moment!

"Qingxue, ride slowly. Send Lingxiao home first. I'll take my younger sister to the newspaper office."

"Okay, you should ride slower too, don't let me fall."

Lin Qingxue naturally knew that her husband was going to take her younger sister to apply for a job. This was a big deal, and she supported it!

After Su Mu calmed down and explained everything to his wife, he couldn't wait to ride his bike to take his girlfriend to the newspaper office...

Su Miantang estimated the time and came back from the newspaper office. The supply and marketing cooperative was still open, so he could still buy things.

But I can’t go back tonight, my dear, will you understand me?

I am laying the foundation for our future happy life.

Hanshan Village——

After eating the eggs and the lunch left by the eldest son's wife, Song Yue became emo.

Feed the chickens.

Feed the pigs.

They are all ready-made "feed".

I am bored.

Very boring.

An unknown flower grew in the corner of the wall. She picked one and broke off the petals.

My dear, will you come back in the afternoon?

Two pieces, my dear, won’t you be back in the afternoon?

.....

At the entrance of the newspaper office, after completing the registration, Su Miantang followed his elder brother in.

It looks old and small from the outside, but the interior is decorated in a scholarly style.

Su Miantang noticed that many eyes were looking past her elder brother and falling on her.

These gazes are filled with admiration and jealousy, as well as curiosity and greed.

In short, she felt that her elder brother had a hard time, and it was really enough for him to work in such an environment.

"Editor Su, didn't you take a day off today? Why are you back? Who is this?"

Before they even went up to the second floor, they were stopped by someone. The man on the other end was a middle-aged man with a greasy hair and big ears, his brows full of scrutiny and interest.

Su Mu frowned, protecting his younger sister behind him, and said in a cold tone:

"Thank you for your concern, Editor-in-Chief Li. This is just a personal matter, so please don't worry about it. Instead of chatting with me about personal matters, why don't you think about the manuscript for the next issue of your group's main magazine?"

"Goodbye."

After saying that, not bothering to look at Chief Editor Li’s pale face, he took his younger sister’s hand and went upstairs.

A middle-aged woman saw this scene and was stunned. Then she smiled calculatingly...

Second floor, president's office.

After Su Mu whispered to the president's secretary, the other party was very surprised. Then, out of trust in Su Mu, he knocked on the door of the president's office.

After a moment, he came out again and signaled Su Mu's sister to go in alone.

"Brother, I'm going in."

Su Miantang was neither afraid nor guilty.

After giving his elder brother a reassuring look, he walked into the president's office with his head held high.

Unexpectedly, she thought that the person who could become the president must be at least in his fifties or sixties, but she didn't expect that the other party was a young man who looked about the same age as her elder brother.

"Su Zhizhi, are you surprised?"

The man took off his silver-rimmed glasses, and a gentle and easy-going smile appeared on his gentle face.

Su Miantang nodded. It was true that the guy opposite her was handsome, but she was a married woman. She stuck to her principles and was not a fangirl.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. I just didn't expect the newspaper's president to be so young."

"Ignorance is not a crime. Secretary Long told me that you are Editor-in-Chief Su's biological sister. Editor-in-Chief Su recommended you for the translation job, is that correct?"

The man felt a little happier. He was really in a good mood when the pretty girl praised his youth.

However, what worries him now is the difficulty in finding a translator. At this time, he hopes that Editor-in-Chief Su will not find someone to fool him.

“Yes.”

At this moment, Su Miantang put away his lazy smile and began to apply for the job.

In the following interview process, she answered the other party's questions in fluent English.

Also, ask the other party if there are any Russian manuscripts that need to be translated besides the English manuscripts?
