The next day, after finishing the last batch of shipments, Jiang Shuya sent the photos of the fourth batch of winter clothes she had taken the day before to Software Avenue. Jiang Shuting told her that Chen Lin had been looking at houses recently, and the two of them were preparing to buy a house. They could no longer live in the apartment on Software Avenue because Jiang Shuting had resigned and was no longer entitled to rental benefits. She would also take time during the day to look at houses with Chen Lin. Hearing that they were going to buy a house, Jiang Shuya was very happy for them. Nowadays, even the more remote areas of Jinling City, such as Pukou District and Jiangning District, cost more than a million yuan. She was still very curious about how Chen Lin could come up with so much money.
Jiang Shuting said with a happy expression, "His parents will pay half of the down payment, the rest will be covered by a housing provident fund loan, and then there will be a commercial loan."
She paused and then said, "I reported my mother's card as lost. A few days ago, my mother came to my place and made a scene, saying that I hadn't kept my promise. I don't want to give them any more money, and besides, they don't lack money. Now that Chen Lin wants to buy a house, I want to save money to share the burden with him."
Jiang Shuya remembered that ever since her younger sister started working, Li Dalan had taken her salary card, demanding that she hand over all her money before her marriage, just like she had done to Jiang Shuya. She wanted to keep the money tightly in her hands and then use a few hundred yuan as a dowry to send her daughter away on her wedding day.
Thinking about her mother's actions, Jiang Shuya remained silent for a long while before asking, "What did you do?"
"She said she was going to sue me, and I agreed, telling her she could sue me anytime." Jiang Shuting said calmly.
Jiang Shuya knew that her younger sister was a woman of her word, and she was capable of doing such things; she was more decisive than herself.
She realized she had been too cowardly to be manipulated by her parents and lacked the courage to resist. Now that her father had given her 100,000 yuan to help her, she couldn't blame them anymore.
Upon hearing that the down payment for the house was provided by Chen Lin's parents, she asked again, "It seems his parents value your relationship very much."
"Yes, we plan to get our marriage certificate on February 14th after the Lunar New Year. His parents are coming to Nanjing in a few days to meet my parents to discuss this matter. The wedding date is planned for May Day next year."
Jiang Shuting returns
Seeing her sister's happy face, Jiang Shuya didn't want to say anything to spoil the mood. Since her rebirth, she could stop the fate of life and death, but she couldn't bear to interrupt that temporary happy time. If her sister didn't choose Chen Lin, would she choose a different life? What kind of path would that be? Would it be better than now? No one could answer that.
"Have you thought it through? Are you sure you want to spend your life with him?" Jiang Shuya wanted to clear up her doubts.
“Of course he’s not good to me, why would I be with him? I’ve known him for less than a week, and he’s already given me all his savings and income. She does all the housework, and he’s busy with his career, but he still doesn’t forget to buy me gifts. Look at this bracelet, he bought it for me a few days ago.” After saying that, he reached out and showed Jiang Shuya the carved gold bracelet.
As the two were looking at each other, Chen Lin returned, carrying a bag of fruit. He looked refined, and seemed to have gotten a bit darker. He adjusted his glasses and said, "Sister, you're here."
Jiang Shuya looked at him quietly, hesitating as she thought about how to start the conversation. Chen Lin put down the fruit and noticed something was wrong: "Sister, is something the matter?"
"It's nothing, just asking what educational background your company usually requires. Is Shanghai University acceptable?" Jiang Shuya asked somewhat nervously.
"There's no problem with the university. The company is planning to recruit talent from Shanghai and Wuhan. The branches in other provinces are already quite large, and a group of people have been transferred from the Nanjing headquarters. Now, the headquarters is short of a few positions."
Chen Lin made no attempt to hide his true feelings.
“I have a guy here who graduated from Shanghai University, also studied computer science. He’s my neighbor. I think he’s had a tough time. Take a look at his resume and give him an interview. If he doesn’t meet the requirements, don’t force him.”
Jiang Shuya remained calm.
Chen Lin suddenly became serious and remained silent for a while. This was the first time he had ever seen someone use connections like this, especially since it was his future sister-in-law. He was thinking about how to refuse.
Jiang Shuting noticed Chen Lin's concerns and said with a serious face, "My sister said that boy is not easy to get into. He should be able to endure hardship. It is not easy to get into Shanghai University. I think his level can not be too bad. In the computer science field, the best will be given priority. Companies will evaluate and assess candidates. If you are capable, you will stay; if you are not capable, you will be eliminated. What is there to hesitate about?"
Come to think of it, as long as I pose a difficult question during the interview, or present a case study from my work, it should be acceptable for him to try.
"Okay then! Send him my QQ number so he can send me his resume first, and I'll contact him for an interview later," Chen Lin replied.
Jiang Shuya immediately took out her phone and sent Chen Lin's QQ number to Sun Qi, telling him not to forget to send his resume to him.
I browsed through the pictures on the computer to make sure there were no problems before I returned to Jiangdao Island with peace of mind.
Sun Qi, who was busy at home at the time, only saw Jiang Shuya's message after she finished eating. The message was from Chen Lin. After clicking to accept, the screen showed: "Hello, I am Yi Yun Chen Lin".
He was stunned. His heart jumped into his throat. He never expected that Chen Lin from Yi Yun would look at his resume, especially the one he admired, Chen Lin, the core figure of Yi Yun, the data software team developer, and a leader in the computer field.
Recalling Jiang Shuya's casual remark yesterday, saying she was asking a friend, could Chen Lin be her friend? And thinking back to the grapes she sent to Yi Yun a few months ago, it wasn't surprising. It turned out they had known each other for a long time. He hadn't expected her to have such a powerful circle of friends, and his curiosity grew even stronger.
The next day, he waited for her at the bridge intersection in advance. He knew that this was the time she would return. With his mother-in-law's big mouth, everyone at the door now knew that her daughter-in-law was a clothing reseller, but they didn't know how much she could earn.
Upon seeing Sun Qi, Jiang Shuya looked at him questioningly: "What did Chen Lin say after looking at the resume?" Sun Qi pretended to be calm and said, "He told me to come for an interview next Monday."
"That's good, make the most of the opportunity!" Jiang Shuya said with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, are you very familiar with Chen Lin?" Sun Qi asked.
Jiang Shuya paused, then shook her head: "Not familiar with it."
“I checked his information; he’s the development director at YiYun. Headhunting firms can easily find him; talent information is publicly available,” Sun Qi emphasized.
Jiang Shuya smiled faintly: "Where he is from is none of my business. He is my brother-in-law."
So that's how it is. Jiang Shuya has a younger sister, just like he has a younger brother. Sun Qi smiled leisurely, looking much more relaxed, and even politely complimented, "Your sister-in-law's sister is really lucky."
“No, I don’t think so. Do you know why I asked you about your computer skills? Because my sister is an expert, the highest level. Her abilities surpass Chen Lin’s.” Jiang Shuya said with a disdainful look.
Sun Qi was shocked once again. As expected, they were from the same school and on the same path. There is always someone better than you. He knew that it was a sign of mutual appreciation, which was admirable. Only by joining forces could they make rapid progress.
