322, looking for trouble where there is none.
Li Wei had spent a chaotic Spring Festival at home, but Da Luo still hadn't returned. With the start of the new semester and graduation and job assignments looming, Li Wei was getting quite anxious.
First, there was the internship, which was easy to solve. The school recommended a high school in the city, which is something most students wouldn't want to go to, because high school is not only tiring, but the students are also difficult to manage.
A better option is a college or vocational school, and the best option is to go directly to a school where you have already been assigned to an internship, so you can quickly get into the swing of things during your internship.
Even better options are to work in relevant foreign trade departments, such as Xiao Ning and Jiang Xiaoshi.
As for Li Wei, let the school decide.
Tang Ying's family is from out of town, and she doesn't have many connections to rely on. However, because she found a local boyfriend, she's likely to stay on. She's interning with Li Wei.
Tang Ying muttered to herself, "Sigh, my husband said he would find his uncle to stay in the city for me, but I don't know how it is. He went out for an internship, so it's not very convenient to ask him. I'm also afraid of putting too much pressure on him. It's really worrying."
Li Wei smiled and said, "It's good that you have a goal. Our major is in high demand right now, so don't worry, everything should be fine."
The two were eating noodles at a snack bar outside the high school where they were doing their internships. Tang Ying took a sip of her drink and looked at Li Wei: "I said, isn't your family very rich? Why don't you use your connections to stay in the provincial capital? I looked around, and almost everyone in the class has a place to stay. Your boyfriend is quite capable too, so what's going on? Don't you want you to stay?"
His words inevitably carried a hint of sourness and smugness.
Li Wei glanced at her. This was also a major reason why she hadn't gotten to know Tang Ying well despite being classmates for three or four years. This girl would occasionally act like a petty person, belittling the powerful and stepping on the weak, and her snobbish mentality was impossible to hide.
Li Wei ate slowly as she said, "My situation is a bit special. Let's talk about it in a few days. I still have a while before graduation. I guess I'll have to go to another city with him."
Tang Ying wanted to ask more questions, but Li Wei didn't say anything more. Tang Ying's curiosity wasn't satisfied, leaving her inevitably disappointed.
Compared to Tang Ying, Ye Zidi was much more welcomed upon her arrival.
I returned home from the high school where I was interning in the evening. My child had already been picked up on the way.
Now, Li Wei doesn't need to bring Aunt Gao or Sister Wei anymore when picking up the kids. After the kids get in the car, she locks the central locking system. And after this period of training, they can fasten their seatbelts by themselves. Basically, the three little rascals won't mess with the car doors anymore, ensuring their safety.
Usually, the little girl sits in the front passenger seat. Occasionally, Roy Rollo takes over. The mother and her four children get along well now.
When Li Wei returned home today, she saw Ye Zi sitting in the living room drinking tea and waiting for her. The three children greeted Ye Zi and then ran to the kitchen to ask Aunt Gao for food.
Ye Zi's belly is still not showing any signs of pregnancy. She is already over thirty years old, and her husband, her aunt, and others are extremely anxious. They have tried many methods, but to no avail.
As soon as Li Wei returned, Ye Zi put down the magazine in her hand: "I've been waiting for you for ages, how about we go out for dinner tonight?"
Li Wei knew that she must have something on her mind. Nowadays, Ye Zi usually consults her when she has something to say. Her relationship with her cousin Chen Juan is rather tense. So she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go upstairs and change my clothes. Wait for me for a while."
Li Wei didn't need to worry about the children. This was where the advantage of having more children became apparent. The three little ones could play games and listen to stories together, so they weren't lonely and wouldn't be as clingy as the only children in most families.
Moreover, with Sister Wei and Aunt Gao taking care of her, Li Wei was basically quite free to move around.
Ye Zi drove over, and Li Wei changed her clothes, greeted Aunt Gao, and then got into Ye Zi's car and drove off.
The two found a seafood restaurant, sat down, ordered a few dishes and drinks. While drinking, Ye Zi spoke first: "Li Wei, I can't hold on much longer. My mother-in-law has been harassing me a lot lately. You have a lot of children, why don't you give me one?" Ye Zi said with a mix of sadness and joking.
Li Wei almost spat out her juice. She coughed and said, "I'd like to, but I bet when my husband Da Luo comes back he'll fight me to the death, and then your husband will be in trouble."
After thinking for a moment, Li Wei said, "This is not something to rush. You should take good care of your health and stop eating all that weird stuff. Relax and see a good Western doctor. I think you and your husband are both in good health. It's probably a lingering problem from your previous miscarriage."
Ye Zi nodded: "We both think so too. It's not that her mother is so fussy, but she's always trying to get Liu Shuo to go back to work at your Mingda. It's so annoying. Sigh, let's not talk about her. What are your plans? You're graduating soon. Aren't you going to stay here? If you want to stay, it should be easy. Now even Liu Shuo's mother is concerned about you. She's been nagging us, saying why don't you go to her? That old lady has so many connections; it would be easy for you to get into any department."
Li Wei called the waiter over, then moved slightly before looking up at Ye Zi: "I know my aunt can, but this depends on Da Luo. Besides, there's still time, it's not that urgent. But there is something I need to ask you. My classmate said that the TV station is going to record an English learning program and they are currently selecting people. It seems the competition is quite fierce. I found out about it relatively late. Since I have nothing to do during my internship, I thought I might as well give it a try. Didn't you say your classmate works at the TV station? Could you tell me to sign up? I won't use any other connections. It would be great if I could be selected, but it's okay if I don't. What do you think?"
Ye Zi picked up a piece of sea cucumber and put it on a small plate: "Is that all? If you want to be selected, I can help you. You can give me some sponsorship. With your qualifications, you can definitely do it."
Li Wei disagreed: "That's meaningless. I'd accept it if someone was willing to pay to go up there, but I won't. I just want to find a short-term job. This internship is meaningless. High school is too stressful for students. I feel suffocated just being there. If there's another job, I won't go. High school is truly unbearable to recall."
While eating, Ye Zi said to Li Wei, "Sometimes I really don't understand you two. You have the capital and opportunities to make money, the connections to become officials, and the resources to find work. Why do you always have to suffer? Just watching you makes me feel exhausted. As for me, Liu Shuo is in charge of making money, and I do odd jobs and then spend the money. Apart from lacking a troublesome little brat, I'm basically living a carefree life. You have all the necessary conditions, so why do you always like to cause trouble?"
Li Wei rested her chin on her hand and thought for a moment: "Haven't you noticed that there's actually more fun in doing things? It feels even better to enjoy the work after you're done. Most importantly, if you look back, the process is far more important than the result for many things. For example, right now, there's nothing wrong with experiencing many things properly. No amount of money can buy happiness, and you can't rise to a high position overnight. If you don't work hard and steadily, it's dangerous to even get promoted. To be honest, my husband and I are quite down-to-earth, haha."
Ye Zi was speechless: "Alright, I'm not as advanced as you guys, so stop praising yourself. It's rare that you want to find something to do, so I'll help you make some connections. But if someone else takes your place, don't blame me for not being clear."
Li Wei nodded: "Don't worry, don't worry, I know exactly what I want to do. You just need to register me."
Ye Zi was also very efficient. The next morning, while Li Wei was having breakfast, Ye Zi called Li Wei to say that the registration was done and that Li Wei should prepare the relevant procedures herself and then go directly to the TV station to find the relevant person in charge.
Li Wei simply asked the teacher in charge of her internship for leave. Anyway, she was just attending classes and there was nothing specific to do, so asking for leave wouldn't be criticized.
After collecting their identification documents and obtaining certificates from the school, they went straight to the TV station.
Li Wei took the organized documents and went directly to the director of the Science and Education Department, who was also Ye Zi's classmate. It was said that Ye Zi's family had some connections and that Ye Zi herself was also capable, which is why she became the director at such a young age.
Ye Zi's classmate was also a woman, but unlike Ye Zi's charming beauty, this classmate had the appearance of a shrewd and capable mature woman, and she warmly received Li Wei.
Li Wei thought the man looked familiar; it seemed he had hosted some kind of program before. Noticing Li Wei's confusion, Director Liu explained, "Ye Zi and I were roommates in college, we're quite close. Oh, I used to host a children's science and education competition. Here's the thing, we currently have three candidates, all exceptionally qualified, making it difficult for us to choose. The final selection is coming up later, so you can come along and watch. I can't make the decision myself; it depends on the opinions of the professionals and the production company. What do you think?"
Li Wei nodded: "Thank you. I just wanted to give it a try. It's a rare opportunity. If I'm not good enough, there's nothing to complain about."
Li Wei understood what the director meant. It seemed that everyone was on the same starting line, and it was up to each person to rely on their own abilities. Anyway, she was just looking for trouble, and she didn't feel any pressure.
When Li Wei saw three beautiful girls in the lounge, she was quite stunned, as she recognized two of them.
These two are from her school. One is in the same major as Li Wei but in a different class, and the other is a famous beauty who is a year younger than Li Wei. Li Wei has only met her a few times and does not know her name.
In short, they all looked familiar, but I didn't know them. I nodded to them as a greeting, but they ignored me.
No one would be happy to see another competitor enter the fray just when things are at the very last moment.
As for the other girl, she was also beautiful, but Li Wei felt that she wasn't from their school. This beautiful girl didn't ignore Li Wei, but just snorted at her.
Li Wei almost burst out laughing; this guy was much more straightforward and adorable.
