Chapter 83: Backdoor
Wen Qingchuan stood there for a long time, and only reacted after a sour feeling came from his nose.
Shen Sangyu is always like this, inadvertently, a word, a phrase, a sentence, makes him lose his temper.
Suppressing the sourness in his heart, Wen Qingchuan lowered his eyes and said seriously: "Okay."
Shen Sangyu didn't want the atmosphere to become so solemn, and hurried to liven up the atmosphere: "You don't have to be so moved, anyway, it's your money!"
Wen Qingchuan laughed: "Okay, then I will work hard to make money in the future."
The atmosphere became lively, and Shen Sangyu stopped talking.
They came early, and Shen Sangyu didn't eat breakfast, so Wen Qingchuan simply took her to a street food stall to eat a small bowl of wontons.
The thin wonton skin was filled with minced meat, and there were shrimps floating on the soup. White mist was rising. Shen Sangyu immediately smelled a fragrance. She turned the spoon down and saw seaweed rolling in the soup.
Shen Sangyu ate half full and stopped eating.
It was almost noon, and the two came to the door of the hotel and happened to meet the Wen family who were walking.
After all, it was an important occasion. Except for the old lady and the old man of the Wen family, everyone came.
Wen Chunyan snorted after seeing Shen Sangyu and entered the hotel first.
The wedding of the two families had been discussed long ago, and they would hold the wedding in this hotel in a few days. The Zhuang family paid attention to the pomp and circumstance and spent a lot of money on the wedding.
In order to marry a daughter-in-law, the Wen family is not as indifferent as they treated Shen Sangyu. Even if they feel sorry for the money, they can only grit their teeth and swallow it.
The Zhuang family's parents are much more enthusiastic than Shen Sangyu imagined.
When Wen Qingchuan arrived, Zhuang's father recognized him immediately - after all, Wen Qingchuan is very outstanding even if he stands in a crowd.
Because the Zhuang family's parents are too kind to Wen Qingchuan, it seems that other people in the Wen family are neglected.
As the head of the family, Wen's father was a little unhappy at once, but he knew in his heart that this dinner was for Wen Qingchuan, and he could only bear it for his youngest son to get married.
Everyone sat down, but the dishes were not served yet.
Wen Chunyan, who was standing aside, had never seen such a good meal. It was even richer than the banquets in the village.
At this time, Zhuang's father poured a glass of wine for Wen Qingchuan. It was not proper for an elder to pour wine for a younger person, but Wen Qingchuan was so powerful that no one thought it was wrong.
"Qingchuan, you are really giving us face by coming back to attend Xiuhong and Wen Chao's wedding this time."
The Zhuang family had good conditions in the city, but there were still many families with better conditions than them.
Wen Qingchuan's salary might not be too high, but his future was limitless. Money was not a problem, and if you had power, money would come naturally.
Wen Qingchuan didn't know what Zhuang's father was thinking, and his face showed no expression: "I don't drink, so it's my duty to come back to attend the wedding."
Zhuang's father smiled awkwardly, and Wen Qingchuan didn't pour wine into the glass when he said he didn't drink.
Wen Qingchuan doesn't talk much. If no one specifically asks him, he can remain silent.
It's not that he doesn't speak all the time. After all, he keeps his head down and whispers to Shen Sangyu. He just doesn't participate in topics other than Shen Sangyu's.
"Sangyu, I heard that you are a translator in Sijiu City, and the salary seems to be not bad."
Shen Sangyu was whispering to Wen Qingchuan, and who knew that a strange voice called her.
Shen Sangyu didn't recognize it, so she raised her head subconsciously. The
person who spoke was Zhuang's mother.
Zhuang's mother looked very young. Today she was wearing a red knitted long skirt, her hair was styled, and her lips were covered with lipstick.
Shen Sangyu was obviously stunned when she raised her head.
Zhuang's mother thought Shen Sangyu didn't hear clearly, so she repeated it again.
Shen Sangyu: "...I was doing translation, but I quit some time ago."
Zhuang's mother was a little surprised: "You quit like that? That was a stable job, paying more than 100 yuan a month, why did you quit?"
Shen Sangyu didn't know where Zhuang's mother heard about her salary, she lowered her head and said nothing, obviously not wanting to answer.
Li Shuhua was also surprised, her tone even more excited than Zhuang's mother. She didn't care that they were at the dinner table and asked loudly: "Why did you quit? You quit such a good job? After the wedding, you should find your job at the translation agency as soon as possible, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
Shen Sangyu laughed: "How can you be rude to me?"
For a moment, the atmosphere in the box became extremely cold.
Finally, seeing that something was not right, Zhuang's father came out to practice Tai Chi: "It must be that the work intensity is too high. The salary is so high, it's okay to take a break for a while."
Before he finished speaking, Zhuang's father asked: "Sang Yu, is the translation agency still short of people? Next year, Wen Chao and Xiuhong will also go to Sijiu City. Xiuhong will graduate from high school, and there will be no problem finding a job in the translation agency. Uncle would like to ask you to find a job for our Xiuhong. After all, we are family. I feel more at ease with my family than asking outsiders to find a job."
After hearing this, Li Shuhua calmed down a little and said, "By the way, there is your brother. You are doing so well in the army. You can use your connections to get your brother in as well. It would be best if he is under your command. I would feel more at ease if you can look after him."
Before all the dishes were served, the true colors of both parties had been revealed.
Shen Sangyu just wanted to laugh after hearing this. The job in the translation agency was not that difficult. For example, at the end of the year, academic qualifications were not considered. Those with ability were given the upper hand. As for what Li Shuhua said, Wen Qingchuan simply did not want to listen.
Sure enough, Wen Qingchuan's voice rang out: "Isn't Wen Chao working in the commune? But he can't join the army at his age. As for the job of my brother and sister-in-law, Sangyu can't decide."
Without waiting for Li Shuhua to get angry, Shen Sangyu asked: "Xiuhong, do you know what the translation agency does?"
Zhuang Xiuhong was stunned for a moment when she was suddenly asked, and then said nonchalantly: "Isn't it just translating a manuscript? I took English classes in high school."
"Taking English classes doesn't necessarily mean you can translate works. I don't know about other translation agencies, but the one I worked for before was very strict. And translation is not as simple as you think. Foreign English is very straightforward. To translate it into Chinese, the translator needs a strong imagination and knowledge reserve capacity. Different types have different translation styles. Fairy tales should be translated with childlike fun, essays should be relaxed and self-centered, and classics should be translated with storytelling. And you may be sent out to do oral translation at any time. By the way, do you speak English?"
Zhuang Xiuhong was hit by a long string of words and turned around.
Isn't it just a job? Why is it so difficult?
She had good grades in high school and was the representative of the English class. She even got the highest score in the class during the exam.
But when she thought of her poor English, Zhuang Xiuhong's face suddenly turned red.
Who knew that after hearing what Shen Sangyu said, Zhuang's mother nodded and said, "My daughter can speak English! She is very good at English. When you go back, talk to your boss and let Xiuhong go to work."
That's a salary of hundreds of yuan!
Zhuang's mother thought that she must not miss this opportunity.
Zhuang Xiuhong was still a little unconfident at first, but after hearing what her mother said, she nodded heavily and said, "I can do it!"
