Chapter 342 Someone is coming
Seeing that Elder Qi's expression had become serious, Lin Siqiao no longer refused and took the red seal with both hands, "Elder Qi, please tell me what you want to say."
Mr. Qi didn't keep the secret, "Xiao Lin, have you decided which university you want to go to for further studies?"
"If you plan to go to China or abroad, your aunt Qi and I have some old professors we are familiar with. We can write you a letter of recommendation when the time comes."
The decision on recommending students to Tsinghua University this time was made by Professor Qi.
Like the president of Kyoto University, he has been very worried these days.
It's not that Mr. Qi wants to boost others' morale and destroy his own prestige. He has been out there and knows how fierce the competition is out there.
The people selected now can only be regarded as the tallest among the short ones. Compared with the international students sent here from abroad, they are far inferior.
What made Mr. Qi happy was that when the working group of the Ministry of Education went to Tsinghua University yesterday, they happily mentioned that Lin Siqiao was on the recommendation list of Peking University.
After returning home in the evening, Mr. Qi told his wife about this.
After discussing it, the couple decided to use the two-month summer vacation to help these students with their studies.
Mrs. Qi also reminded Mr. Qi that she should write a few letters of introduction for him to take with them before they set off.
Even if those people were unwilling to teach sincerely, they would not make things difficult for these children because of their past friendship.
This is all the couple can offer at this stage.
After listening to what Mr. Qi said, Lin Siqiao was overwhelmed with emotions.
She didn't know how to tell them that she had decided to give up going abroad.
"Mr. Qi, I..."
Lu Jianchuan interrupted Lin Siqiao at this moment, gave her a reassuring look, and said.
"Mr. Qi, Xiao Qiao was feeling unwell yesterday, and we haven't had time to discuss which school to send her to. Once we have discussed it, I will really trouble you."
Lin Siqiao was so surprised that he was speechless. When did they discuss it? We clearly agreed not to go!
Old Qi laughed happily and said "it's not a big deal" several times.
After finishing the tea in the cup, Mr. Qi and Mrs. Qi said goodbye.
After seeing them off, Lin Siqiao reached out and held Lu Jianchuan's hand.
There was no blame in her tone, and she asked calmly why he said that. Didn't they already discuss it last night?
Lu Jianchuan sighed softly, "Wife, I can't bear to let you go abroad alone, and I'm worried about you. This is what I really think."
"You can't bear it, so you want to push me out?" Lin Siqiao glared at him unhappily.
Lu Jianchuan pushed her down on the sofa and said helplessly, "If you were pregnant now, I would not let you go even if the king of heaven came."
The environment abroad is complicated, and Lu Jianchuan could not accept that she was living alone abroad with a big belly.
However, the result of the inspection was no.
The moment he learned that she was not pregnant, Lu Jianchuan felt no regret or loss, but relief instead.
Stroking her hands, Lu Jianchuan said seriously, "Wife, you said before that no matter how much you like me, you will not give up your job and career for me."
"Similarly, I don't want you to make these compromises because of me and the child, and I don't want you to regret it in the future."
"I've calculated that minus the winter and summer vacations, it's only a few months a year. With our current income, we can still afford the round-trip airfare."
"But..." Lin Siqiao wanted to say something.
Lu Jianchuan said, "Wife, you will be a diplomat in the future. This is not the first time you will be sent abroad, and it will not be the last time."
The choice is mutual. She can accept her identity as a soldier and support her choice.
There was no reason for Lu Jianchuan to be a stumbling block for her in this matter.
Moreover, this opportunity is rare, which is why Lu Jianchuan was willing to let go and support her to go.
After hearing what he said, Lin Siqiao pursed her lips and didn't know what to say for a moment.
In fact, what Lu Jianchuan considered was correct. She chose this path, and in essence, she was doing the same kind of work as Lu Jianchuan.
She can refuse this time, but what about next time?
Just as Lin Siqiao lowered his head in thought, there was another knock on the door.
After the two looked at each other, they both understood a message from each other's eyes: it was really lively at home today.
This time it was Lu Jianchuan who opened the door. The moment Lin Siqiao saw his senior brother coming in, he was quite surprised.
She has moved here for so long, but this is the first time that the senior brother has taken the initiative to come to her house.
Could it be that he is here to select international students?
As soon as Lin Siqiao had this thought, she heard Minister Wu say, "Junior sister, have you decided which university to choose?"
“…”
Lin Siqiao shook his head and thought, will Senior Brother say later that he will also write a letter of recommendation for me?
Minister Wu did want to, but he had no experience studying abroad and could not provide any help to Lin Siqiao in this regard.
Moreover, he felt that given his junior sister's current situation, she didn't need help from anyone else. On the contrary, he had something to ask Lin Siqiao today.
Minister Wu said: "Junior sister, if you haven't made up your mind yet, can you try to consider the universities in this country?"
In addition to European countries, other countries have also extended olive branches to China in this selection of international students.
Together, these countries have a total of 22 universities.
Among them are world-renowned universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, Stanford, Yale, and Waseda.
Of course, the more famous the university is, the more they will assess the international students they select.
You have to pass the simplest language test. Otherwise, when you go abroad, you won’t even understand the lessons. How can you keep up with the progress then?
But Minister Wu knew that these were no big deal for the junior sister.
Lin Siqiao originally wanted to confess to her senior brother, but she had not yet decided whether to go.
But when he saw the expression on his senior brother's face, he changed his mind about the words that were on his lips.
"Big Brother, why do you have to choose this side of the country?"
"You'll know after you look at this."
Minister Wu took out an urgent confidential letter from his briefcase and handed it over.
"This is an urgent telegram from the Xinhua News Agency's Gangcheng Branch. They received an unsigned letter a few days ago."
Lin Siqiao quickly opened it and took a look. As she expected, the letter was indeed sent by Ding Dakang's cousin.
