The person who was most shocked was Jiang Cong. He had never thought that their Qin Man could speak foreign languages.
After the shock, he was filled with pride and relief, and he felt that Qin Man seemed to be glowing just standing there.
She is smart, has many ideas, has a positive attitude towards life, and is multi-talented, just like a little sun.
"Of course you can!" Brother Liu smiled with relief, then showed her the English manuscript.
Qin Man took it and took a quick look at some foreign news reports.
"This is easy, is that all?"
Qin Man counted them and found that there were ten sheets of paper in total, all filled with densely written English.
"Well, that's all for now. Our newspaper has just tried to get in touch with this foreign newspaper!"
This place is not like the big cities. Some major foreign reports have dedicated people to translate them in newspapers, but it is very difficult for newspapers in small counties to get in touch with them.
"If you can translate it, I can reward you. If you translate all of this, I can pay you five dollars as a fee!" Brother Liu continued.
Qin Man raised her eyebrows, thinking that this deal was worthwhile! She could earn five dollars by translating some foreign languages, and five dollars was enough to rent a large single room for a month, so why not do it?
"Okay, I'll take the job and make sure it's translated perfectly for you!"
"Are you sure you can do this? Journalism is not like writing an article where you can just follow your own ideas. Not even a single word can be wrong!"
Xiao Yang standing by still had a skeptical look in her eyes. She was immediately outshined by the country girl and started to feel jealous.
Qin Man's face soon turned bad, and she said directly: "Then why don't you come?"
I thought, you actually installed it just to give you face?
Xiao Yang was so terrified that he was speechless, and his breath was stuck in his throat.
"Xiao Yang, go do your own thing!" Brother Liu spoke.
Now, I finally found someone who knows English, so I have to give it a try.
Xiao Yang bit her lip and looked at Jiang Cong unwillingly. Then Jiang Cong's eyes never left his little wife, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
"Hey, Xiao Jiang, what's your wife's name?"
"My last name is Qin, just call me Xiao Qin!" Qin Man answered first.
"Xiao Qin, right? Just give it a try! Just try to restore it as much as possible. It doesn't have to be word for word, but just don't deviate from the original idea!"
He didn't ask Qin Man to restore it 100%, just that the meaning was not misinterpreted.
"Don't worry, I can restore it 100%!" Qin Man waved the manuscript in her hand, then stuffed it into Jiang Cong's canvas bag.
There was a glow of confidence on her face and even on her body.
"That's good. I'll leave the manuscript to you!" Brother Liu now hoped that Qin Man could give her a surprise.
"Don't worry, just give it to me before the end of the month!"
"Not until the end of the month, I'll deliver it to you in five days!" Qin Man said.
With such a small amount of manuscript, it wouldn't take her half a month to finish it.
This time the couple came here, they took down a receipt for an income.
Jiang Cong could earn three yuan from writing that article, and she could earn five yuan, so she could make eight yuan in total, which is not bad.
The two walked back to the farmers' market, ate a bowl of dumplings each, picked up their food and prepared to go home.
I have to say, the food at this stall is delicious, authentic, tasty and generous in portion. The lady selling dumplings was really honest.
Qin Man passed by a small stall selling rubber bands and hairpins, which were all small gadgets for little girls to tie their hair.
The big red flower brought back a lot of memories for Qin Man. When she was in primary school, on Children's Day, the teacher gave two pigtails to each of the female students who participated in the dance competition. Then she pinned the big red flower on them and put on big blush like a monkey's butt.
Thinking back to when she was the center, she felt extremely proud. It makes me smile just thinking about it.
"Do you like these?" Jiang Cong looked at her and fell into deep thought.
Why does he think these are toys for little girls?
"How is that possible? Do I have such a bad taste? I just think Xiaoyu's hair is too long, and I want to buy some hair ties to braid her hair!"
Her aesthetic standards aren't that low, are they?
Jiang Cong imagined what Qin Manza looked like with the big red flower and couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" asked Qin Man who was choosing carefully.
"No, nothing..." Jiang Cong quickly denied guiltily.
Of course, Qin Man didn't take it too seriously and continued to choose.
She picked out a pair of daisy-shaped hairpins, a pair of bow-shaped hair ties, and a pair of not-too-exaggerated flower rubber bands, all of which were quite delicate.
But she did not forget Niuniu from her eldest sister-in-law's family, and also picked out a pair of flowery rubber bands and hairpins for her.
We are all living under the same roof, and will be sisters-in-law in the future. Even if we don't get along, we can't ruin the relationship between the children, right?
They are cousins, so they still need to maintain good relationships.
These things were not expensive, only a few cents in total. After buying them, the couple went to the supply and marketing cooperative to get the basket and rushed to the car.
