Anyway, the meal was over. Qiao Nan put her arms around her chest and looked at Qiao Zijin, her eyes full of indifference: "What are you discussing?"
"I remember Dad said your English is very good. If you don't have that ability, it will be difficult even if someone teaches you, right? How about this, I'll take these materials to translate first, and you can help me revise the ones that are wrong or can't be translated. Then, we can split the money in half, what do you think?"
Ding Jiayi moved her lips, very dissatisfied with Qiao Zijin's words.
Since the content of the materials was translated by Zijin, Qiao Nan just helped to revise it, and of course all the wages earned belong to Zijin. Qiao Nan has the nerve to take half?
But today, Ding Jiayi was really beaten up by Qiao Dongliang. When she thought about Qiao Dongliang saying that he wanted a "divorce", Ding Jiayi's mouth was as tight as a cannon, but she didn't dare to say another word.
Qiao Nan could guess what Ding Jiayi would think with her toes, so Qiao Nan didn't look at Ding Jiayi, but only at Qiao Dongliang.
When Qiao Nan saw Qiao Dongliang's calm face and his expression without any idea, she breathed a sigh of relief. Didn't she say it in vain?
If it were in the past, her father would have agreed to it for her, and would have told her to get along well with Qiao Zijin and help Qiao Zijin more.
After all, what Qiao Zijin said was a manifestation of "progress".
"Nannan, what do you think?" Qiao Zijin looked at Qiao Nan with a smile, her tone as gentle as spring rain, making people feel comfortable, but Qiao Nan felt the chill hidden under the spring rain.
"No." Qiao Nan took a sip of water: "It's not that I look down on you, you can't do this job."
Qiao Zijin hated English. The reason why she took out this information was just to hope that Qiao Zijin would give up. Who knew that Qiao Zijin became more shameless instead.
If she was really only sixteen years old, she might not understand Qiao Zijin's calculations, but she was almost "forty-six", how could she not understand the trap set in Qiao Zijin's words.
"Why can't I do it, Nan Nan, don't look down on me!" Qiao Zijin was not convinced. It wasn't that she couldn't do it, it was that Qiao Nan didn't want to help her, didn't want to see her make this money, and let her father know that she was also capable, no worse than Qiao Nan!
To put it bluntly, Qiao Nan just couldn't stand the fact that she was better than her! Qiao
Nan didn't get angry either, she calmly took a pen and gave it to Qiao Zijin: "You said you can do it, then, you translate the content of this document for me first."
Qiao Zijin gritted her teeth, Qiao Nan wouldn't do it on purpose, right?
"Wait for me, I'll go into the house to get an English dictionary." She didn't believe it, she couldn't compare to Qiao Nan.
"Okay, our whole family is waiting for you." Qiao Dongliang also drank tea. He wanted to see whether Zijin said this because she really wanted to understand and admit her mistakes, or...
"Zijin, don't worry, there is plenty of time. Take your time to flip through the dictionary. It's not an exam. There is no time limit." Ding Jiayi didn't dare to scold Qiao Nan, but she could encourage Qiao Zijin and cheer her up.
"Mom, I know." Qiao Zijin exhaled. Mom was right. This was not an exam. There was a time limit. She could take her time. No matter what, she had to try to pass this level, and then she could justifiably share half of Qiao Nan's salary.
Qiao Zijin showed an unprecedented serious attitude and concentration, flipping through the dictionary quickly, and then writing down what she found.
For a whole hour, Qiao Zijin didn't move her buttocks at all, and her eyes were fixed on the dictionary or the original document. For a whole hour, Qiao Zijin didn't change her movements.
"Sister, it's eight o'clock now. Okay, you don't have to finish flipping through all the pages, just flip through as many pages as you can, let me see." Qiao Nan yawned and calmly took the document from Qiao Zijin's hand.
"Hey..." Qiao Zijin's face turned pale, but she watched Qiao Nan take the document back with disdain, and she didn't even have a chance to snatch it back.
Although Qiao Zijin struggled for a whole hour and wrote a lot of words, she didn't translate much useful information.
Qiao Nan silently took out a red pen and annotated the little "dry stuff" that Qiao Zijin had written with great difficulty.
Qiao Nan crossed out a small sentence and then wrote the correct translation. Then, he directly crossed out a large paragraph, not even bothering to correct it.
In the end, Qiao Nan had no choice but to start drawing circles again.
It took Qiao Zijin more than an hour to write, but Qiao Nan finished reading it in less than three minutes: "Sister, please read it yourself. In the part you translated, except for the circled content, all other content has problems. You don't even have a complete and correct translation. Do you think you can do this job? You also said that I will help you correct the mistakes after you translate it for the first time, and then we will split the money in half? Sister, are you sure you will hand it to me after you finish the translation? I will just make a small correction for you, not translate it again yourself, right?"
Qiao Zijin was so serious and attentive, but she didn't even translate one sentence correctly, and she still wanted to take the translation job?
The most important thing is that Qiao Nan knew that Qiao Zijin took such a serious attitude and translated for more than an hour in front of the whole family today in order to fight for this job. When Qiao Zijin really gets this job, her attitude will be completely different.
By then, Qiao Zijin probably won't even touch a dictionary, and will just pick up a book and copy a sentence from the article and throw it to her.
Qiao Zijin doesn't want to work to make money at all, Qiao Zijin is thinking about how to be lazy and get money!
In the end, she had to give half of her hard-earned money to Qiao Zijin even though she did the translation by herself!
Ding Jiayi took the document in disbelief and saw that there were very few circles on it, only crosses: "Your sister really didn't translate a single sentence correctly, are you sure you didn't mark it wrong?"
How is that possible? Zijin is at least one grade higher than Qiao Nan. It doesn't make sense that Zijin can't do what Qiao Nan can do, and he is so far behind: "How about this, you know how to do it, right? You just say it, and your sister writes it down. This way the work is half and half, and it's easier for you, you just need to move your mouth, and then you can get half of the salary."
"Mom, do you think it's enough to just translate with your mouth? The most important thing is to use your brain. I can write these few words by myself without my sister's help." Qiao Nan immediately refused.
