Wu Wei drew her gun and pointed it at Old Zheng, attracting the attention of passersby on the street.
Several young men, caught up in the excitement, surrounded Old Zheng and shouted that they were going to catch enemy agents, causing a commotion that drew crowds of people from all over the street to come and arrest him.
Old Zheng, both amused and exasperated, raised his hand to explain: "Please don't misunderstand, everyone!"
This is the occupancy certificate I just obtained from the neighborhood office. I'm not an enemy agent; I just want to take this girl as my apprentice.
"Oh, it really is one of our neighbors. Sorry, we've offended you." After seeing Mr. Zheng's identification, the young men apologized and left.
The crowd quickly dispersed, leaving Wu Wei embarrassed as she said, "I'm sorry, sir, I misunderstood you just now. I apologize."
"Girl, you seem to be in a state of mental and physical disarray. What happened to you?"
If you're unhappy with your job, why not try a different path in life? Old Zheng has seen so many people and things, he could tell at a glance that Wu Wei was facing a difficult situation.
He looked lost and dejected, his eyes filled with confusion and emptiness; he must have encountered a major decision he was struggling to make.
This situation is mostly related to work.
If it's an emotional shock, one either goes crazy or lies down to heal oneself.
Instead of walking down the street looking for something?
Going out to search is about finding kindred spirits, finding like-minded people, and finding something that allows your soul to find peace and freedom. Only then can you say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and rediscover yourself.
Wu Wei put away her gun and walked back. She felt Old Zheng following her and shook her head, saying, "Old man, don't follow me."
"I can't possibly learn your craft from you; it would be a waste of all my years of hard work..."
"Girl, you're an intellectual, how can your thinking be so narrow-minded?"
Isn't the current advocacy for a division of labor in the revolution, regardless of social status?
"You've worked hard for years without success, so do you have to keep going and keep hitting yourself until you're battered and bruised? Can't you try a different approach, a different way of life?" Old Zheng felt it was worth a try.
Those who handle guns are either police officers or security personnel.
People who do these two types of work are also prone to breakdowns when faced with major events.
In Professor Zheng's view, these two types of work are not very academically demanding at this stage, so there's nothing to be reluctant about.
Wu Wei walked slowly down the street, carefully considering the meaning behind his words, but still couldn't let go. She smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, please don't try to persuade me anymore."
I can give up my years of hard work, but I cannot give up the will and hope that my adoptive mother taught me.
If I give up, what kind of person will I become?
"Oh, what you're saying sounds contradictory to me."
I'd like to hear your story. It'll make you feel better if you talk about it, and I can help you analyze it.
"If you don't mind, please tell me about it." Old Zheng really cared about her; it was so rare to meet someone with such a kind heart.
If you don't try, you'll definitely regret it.
Wu Wei did not refuse, and told him about her life experiences, revealing another major problem.
The Wu family has severed ties with her.
It looks like there's nothing wrong.
However, a descendant raised by the Wu family has already been labeled as a member of the Wu family.
Once someone becomes a stain on the Wu family and is expelled, it's equivalent to destroying all the connections and efforts they've built up.
She managed to keep her job, but her colleagues quietly distanced themselves from her and ostracized those who disagreed with them, causing her immense pressure.
In this situation, there is almost no room for her to develop or improve.
If you are applying for a transfer, you must find a receiving unit in advance before you can apply for a transfer.
But for someone as ambitious as her, what difference would it make if she changed jobs?
Rebuilding her network of contacts is not only difficult, but also potentially risky. Given the influence of the Wu family, her career advancement may be limited, and she may even face suppression.
This situation effectively ruined her career.
More than a decade of hard work and the hopes of his adoptive mother's devoted teaching were all destroyed in one fell swoop.
This made her feel ashamed and unable to face her adoptive mother, which caused her great distress.
At a crossroads in her life, Wu Wei felt lost and confused, unsure of which path to choose.
After hearing her story, Old Zheng and the two of them returned to Zheng Ya's house. Old Zheng tried to invite her, "Girl, come with me to Little Zheng's house for dinner."
"A meal can help you temporarily forget your troubles, shall we go?"
"Ah, you know perfectly well about me and him..."
"It's alright. In my opinion, Xiao Zheng just doesn't like your original work attitude and personal biases. But this is the first step for you to start over. Be brave, face the difficulties, and let's go."
"Oh, well, alright then!" Wu Wei was also a person who refused to admit defeat. After being provoked by him, she followed Old Zheng into Zheng Ya's house.
Zheng Ya was playing with Bao'er, a newly made golden nanmu wood puzzle toy, to develop Bao'er's intelligence.
After Xu Qi finished cooking, Old Zheng led Wu Wei through the door: "Little Zheng, I've brought back a guest. You don't mind, do you?"
"Haha, I object. You've brought people home too. Am I supposed to chase them away with a stick?" Zheng Ya gets angry whenever he sees Wu Wei. He doesn't like her, but he's not intolerant either.
Old Zheng chuckled and shrugged. Wu Wei, understanding the situation, said, "I apologize for the intrusion!"
I wanted to change my way of life, so I listened to Mr. Zheng's advice, faced the difficulties bravely, and overcame them. Thank you for giving me this opportunity.
"I won't give you any chance to overcome your own mental burdens; you have to cultivate and work hard to get those opportunities yourself."
See? My baby is using Mr. Zheng's signature skill, which is very educational.
"You're a bit smarter than Bao'er, yet you still want to play with this kind of toy?" Zheng Ya didn't hold back in criticizing her, wanting to see how much courage and willpower Wu Wei had.
There's a saying that failure is the mother of success.
If a person does not experience hardship and trials, he will eventually fail to achieve great things.
Upon hearing this, Wu Wei was so angry that she gasped for breath, clenched her fists, and wanted to rush up and punch the person. What kind of person was he?
How can you compare an adult like me to a child?
Little did he know that Old Zheng laughed and said, "Girl, don't be angry. If you're not convinced, you can try those toys."
Of course, unless you're afraid of losing to a child and don't dare to try...
"Who's afraid? Bao'er, can you give it a try?" Wu Wei couldn't stand being provoked, especially by Zheng Ya, so she immediately stepped forward and asked Bao'er for the Luban lock.
A complete set of Luban lock puzzle pieces, a puzzle toy.
This is not a simple puzzle toy; it uses jigsaw puzzle pieces to form a snare module that makes up a model mechanism box.
It's essentially another version of the Lu Ban Heritage Box.
To reduce complexity and difficulty, Zheng Ya divided this extremely intricate Lu Ban inheritance box into five sections, turning it into a game-like educational toy.
Wu Wei was completely captivated as soon as she touched it, her mind mesmerized by the exquisite craftsmanship of the Lu Ban Heritage Box.
Old Zheng gave Zheng Ya a look of gratitude; what a lucky accident!
As long as Wu Wei pays attention to the ingenious design of the Lu Ban inheritance box, this apprenticeship is secure.
Don't think that inheriting Lu Ban's legacy is just about learning carpentry skills; that would be a desecration of Lu Ban's secret teachings.
There are countless mechanical devices in the world that are not as exquisite as the secret manuals passed down by Lu Ban, and many are even products derived from Lu Ban's academic knowledge.
Isn't the wooden flowing horse a unique kind of modern mechanical device?
