Tang Xiaoxiao got up early in the morning and started translating the materials she brought back. Ten thousand words a week was too easy for her and could probably be finished in two days. She wanted to become a senior translator as soon as possible so that she could earn more and strive to become a senior translator before giving birth.
Lu Wanwan has been busy recently. I don’t know if it’s because of the publicity from those people, but more and more people come to order clothes. However, there are only two or three people a day, and my sister-in-law can handle it for the time being.
"Gu Feng, I want to go see how Xiaoxiao is doing at work. I'll go out for a while, and you can go out when I come back."
"You go? I'll wait for you to come back."
Seeing Lu Wanwan coming, Tang Xiaoxiao was extremely happy.
"Wanwan, this is thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to find a job like this."
"I wanted to see how you were doing, worried that people would be disappointed if they didn't need you, but I didn't expect you to have already started."
"I didn't think I could bring it home, but Gu Lang would have to go to the city twice a week. I really don't want him to run back and forth."
"If he doesn't run, then you have to run. My cousin is a caring person and he definitely won't let you run away."
"For now, we can only let him work harder."
"It seems that our cousin's wife also loves her husband."
"Wanwan, please stop making fun of me."
"Then you translate it. I'll go back first. I have something to do here."
"Just go about your business. There's no need to come and see me."
After seeing Lu Wanwan off, Tang Xiaoxiao continued to do her work seriously.
Lu Wanwan has been very busy recently and basically needs someone to help her. People come to order clothes every day, and she can't just leave it to her sister-in-law, so she can't go see Xiaoxiao recently.
By Thursday night, Tang Xiaoxiao had already translated all the information and checked for typos.
"Gu Feng, you have to deliver the information tomorrow."
"I remember. I'll deliver it tomorrow afternoon, don't worry."
"Gu Feng, I didn't expect that I would have to give you tasks just to make money. You run twice a week?"
"It's nothing, I'll go there when I have time. Don't overthink it. This home belongs to both of us, don't overthink it."
""Can you please bring back the documents you need translated next time when you deliver them? That way you can save yourself a trip.""
The next day, Gu Lang went to deliver the information, and Tang Xiaoxiao was restless at home. She was worried that her translation was not good enough.
When the newspaper office saw Gu Lang coming, they were very enthusiastic towards him. He was the man who solved their big problem.
The director looked at the information in Gu Lang's hand. The meaning was clear and the wording was accurate, as if this sentence had already been written.
"The translation is excellent. We are very satisfied. I will apply for an intermediate translation position."
"Excuse me, Director. Can we take the translation back with us when we deliver the materials?"
"Okay, this way you can save yourself a trip."
"Thank you, Director."
Gu Lang took the materials that needed to be translated next week and went home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Tang Xiaoxiao looking around.
"What? Xiaoxiao, you still don't trust me?"
"Brother Gu Lang, you clearly know that's not what I meant. I'm just afraid that I won't pass."
"Don't worry, the director is very satisfied. This is the information that needs to be translated next week."
"When the director agreed to send it, he took next week's back."
"Of course, he also said he's applying for an intermediate translation certificate for you."
"I'm so happy. Why am I afraid I won't be able to pass the test?"
"Xiaoxiao, you should be more confident. If you can't pass it, then no one else can."
Gu Lang said this not to comfort Xiaoxiao, it was the truth. There were probably few people here who knew foreign languages, let alone being able to translate them accurately.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Wanwan also ushered in her first crazy Saturday and Sunday. She originally thought that there would be only a few people hanging out every day, but she didn't expect a crazy shopping spree on the weekend.
In just two days, Lu Wanwan received orders for forty sets of products. Her sister-in-law couldn't handle it all by herself. If she wanted to finish them in a week, six sets a day was simply unrealistic.
"Gu Feng, we received 40 orders in two days. My sister-in-law must be too busy to handle it. I wonder if my aunt can do it quickly."
"Why don't you let your eldest sister-in-law make the pattern and cut it, and let your mother use the sewing machine. That way it will be faster, and then you can send the rest to your aunt. If your aunt can't finish it, you'll have to let your mother and sister-in-law work overtime."
"Our mother can also use a sewing machine?"
"Most villagers know how to use it, but they don't know how to dress it up or cut it."
"Let's call Mom and sister-in-law to discuss it together. If it doesn't work, we have to find someone else."
"Of course I can. In this kind of situation, I will definitely prioritize my family first."
"Mom, sister-in-law, it's like this. We have orders for 40 sets in the past two days. Sister-in-law definitely can't finish them all by herself. I don't know if Aunt can do it quickly. 20 sets per person is a bit stressful. We thought sister-in-law would make the patterns and cut them, and Mom would do it. This way it would be faster."
"I'm fine," said Mrs. Gu.
The eldest sister-in-law also continued, "I am really too busy to handle it. I think I will be busy with just 20 sets."
"Then we'll keep 25 sets and send the rest to Auntie. 15 sets a week should be enough."
"It should be no problem to have an extra class at night."
"Mom, let my sister-in-law give you one dollar for every set you make."
Mother Gu said, "We are all family, why should we divide the money?"
"Mom, this is going to be a long-term thing, not just one or two days, otherwise my sister-in-law won't dare to use you."
"OK."
"Gu Feng, please send the blueprints and fabric measurements to Auntie later."
Gu Feng took a few pieces of cloth, put the drawing dimensions in his pocket and went out.
When Gu Lang saw Gu Feng holding something, he knew what was going on.
"Mom, Gu Feng is looking for you."
