Extra 5
Han Juan is a few months younger than Ji Yanran. She was sent abroad to study at the age of sixteen. When she returned to China in her twenties, she had already become a senior laboratory technician.
When Song Shixia learned about Han Juan's identity, she felt deeply that she was worthy of being Professor Ji's relative. With such strong genes, it was no wonder that there were two professors in the same family.
Song Shixia was not aware of the grudge between Han Juan and Ji Yanran, and had a good impression of her. She thought it would be a good idea for graduate student Chai Shanjing to follow her.
Han Juan found out about her sister-in-law's situation. She was different from what she had imagined, but she was still a very good sister-in-law.
With both good looks and talent, it's no wonder that my cousin doesn't like her good friend. To be honest, Liu Rui has a higher education than my sister-in-law and is the youngest diplomat. Unfortunately, she is not as pretty as my sister-in-law. Just looking at my sister-in-law's appearance, you can tell that talent alone is useless, and you still have to look at the face.
Chai Shanjing was very disappointed when she was not accepted. She had made a lot of preparations in advance, but the result was counterproductive and her innovation backfired.
When Professor Ji refused, he recommended a new teacher to her school. She chose Associate Professor Han as the next best choice.
Although he was called an associate professor, he was actually just a senior laboratory technician, with the same status as an associate professor. She felt a little uneasy, and the main reason was that Professor Han was about the same age as her, which made her even less confident.
However, after getting to know her, she found that although Professor Han was young, he was very knowledgeable and could always point out her problems. Chai Shanjing went from feeling uneasy to gradually accepting that the teacher recommended by Professor Ji was indeed very good.
Han Juan was in a trance on the way back to the dormitory. She borrowed her cousin's laboratory today and found out that the laboratory that made her particularly satisfied was funded and built by her sister-in-law just to support her cousin's career.
She used to think there was a gap between her sister-in-law and her cousin, but now it seems that there is indeed a huge gap. How could her cousin marry her sister-in-law? Where can she find a partner like her sister-in-law? !
When Ji Yanran learned that Han Juan was in her sister-in-law's school, Uncle Jiang rushed to her brother's house. As expected, she saw Han Juan being attentive to her sister-in-law. New and old grudges surged in her heart, and her anger grew.
Ji Yanran strode forward and pulled her away, "This is my sister-in-law, why are you getting so close to her!"
Han Juan used to envy Ji Yanran for being favored, but now she envies her for having the best sister-in-law.
Han Juan pretended to be timid: "Sister-in-law, can't I stand next to you?"
Ji Yanran was so angry that she almost laughed. Han Juan was always like this. She said one thing in front of adults and another behind their backs.
She pushed Han Juan away and said, "Get out of here, this is my sister-in-law. You can pretend, but sooner or later you will be exposed."
Song Shixia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Han Juan usually acted very smart in front of her, but why did she start to act like a green tea bitch when she met Yanran?
Song Shixia acted as a peacemaker and prevented the two from having a quarrel. However, he suffered like the meat patty in the middle of a burger, being snatched away by the two little girls on either side.
Song Shixia couldn't stand it anymore: "That's enough, if you squeeze any more you two will hug each other."
Just hug her together. What's the point of always holding her back? She still has things to do.
Ji Yanran came over to flatter: "Sister-in-law, let me massage your shoulders."
Han Juan was unwilling to fall behind: "Sister-in-law, let me help you look at the thesis."
Ji Yanran was temporarily defeated, and Han Juan took the opportunity to fan the flames.
"You are so free today, why don't you go out on a date with your date?"
Ji Yanran glared at her and said, "If you are the one in charge, just take care of yourself."
Han Juan shook her head helplessly: "I really don't understand why a college student like you would like a rough guy. Don't you have any male classmates you like in your class?"
Ji Yanran knew that Han Juan would definitely find fault with her academic qualifications. Who could have made her an associate professor at such a young age?
Ji Yanran retorted: "You have been under strict control for so many years of studying, it's really pitiful, don't be too picky and fail to find a partner in the future."
Han Juan didn't have many male friends around her. She was anxious and angry.
"I prefer to be poor than to be poor. Even if I can't find someone, I won't find a rough guy."
Ji Yanran rolled her eyes.
Song Shixia really wanted to cover her ears and walk away. The two of them were too noisy. When they were together, it was like they were at the vegetable market.
Ji Yanran had a slight advantage: "Sister-in-law, accompany me to buy clothes. I have to report to the unit and don't know what to wear."
Ji Yanran started interning at a TV station during the summer vacation of her junior year. After graduation, she naturally joined the TV station of her dreams, although she was only a small assistant and had no chance to go on stage for the time being.
However, it is already amazing to be able to enter such a large unit. With her own excellent conditions, she will be able to appear on screen and host a program sooner or later.
"It's time to take you clothes shopping. Your current clothes are not formal enough. Your TV station is a more serious place."
Han Juan insisted on going together, so the two of them stopped arguing with each other.
Han Juan is a teacher at a university, where the dress code is not strict. Ji Yanran works for a state-owned enterprise, so there are very strict requirements for dress code.
Song Shixia helped her pick out a few women's suits, with options for matching hip-wrapped knee-length skirts and trousers. This is a popular style on the coast, and it is said to be the favorite outfit of career women.
Ji Yanran was worried that the outfit would look old-fashioned, but Han Juan stood by and watched their interaction with envy. Her sister-in-law was just like Ji Yanran's biological sister. It would be nice if she had a sister.
I thought that putting on a suit would make me look ten years older, but I didn't expect that it actually made me look so impressive, as if I had been working in the company for several years. I didn't feel old at all, but instead, I felt that I was mature and stable.
Han Juan squeezed in: "I want this one too, I'll buy the same one as you!"
Ji Yanran was so angry that she went crazy: "You are such a smart imitator!"
Han Juan didn't care, she wanted her sister-in-law to help her choose.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Song Shixia quickly asked the clerk to help pretend.
She paid for the two girls, but Han Juan felt embarrassed. If she had known that her sister-in-law would pay, she would not have refused.
"You two have just started working, so consider this as a gift to celebrate your entry into the workplace."
Ji Yanran happily hugged the clothes, fantasizing about becoming a news anchor so that the whole family could see her on TV.
Han Juan wanted to secretly give the money to her sister-in-law, but Song Shixia saw through her plan.
"Why are you being so polite? We are all family. Your brother said you must be unfamiliar with the place since you just came back, so he asked me to show you around."
This is certainly not what Professor Ji said, but he couldn't let his cousin watch him buy clothes for his sister. It would only cost a few dozen dollars more anyway.
After Han Juan left, Ji Yanran complained to her sister-in-law.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have me in your heart anymore. Han Juan is so annoying. I tell you, she is very scheming..."
Song Shixia didn't expect that their relationship was so irreconcilable.
She consoled Yanran earnestly, "In terms of kinship, we are the closest. You are definitely more important to me than she is. But she is younger than me and calls me sister-in-law. I can't just ignore her. She also likes the clothes I picked for you today. I can't just buy them for you and let her pay for them. You two can't afford to buy clothes worth a few dozen yuan. Her mother and our mother are sisters. Do you think it's okay to ignore her?"
Ji Yanran's mind was filled with the first sentence: sister-in-law said she was the most important!
She held her sister-in-law's arm and smiled foolishly: "My sister-in-law and I are a family. I can openly ask my sister-in-law to make delicious food for me and buy me new clothes. She is just a by-product!"
Song Shixia touched her head lovingly: "As long as you are happy."
Many of her beautiful dresses were bought for her by her sister-in-law. Sooner or later, she will show them off in front of Han Juan!
As time goes by, everything is on track and developing in the expected direction. The products of Yu Meiren Company have branched out from pharmaceutical cosmetics to female health supplements. There is nothing that R&D personnel cannot do, only customers cannot think of it.
From the simple lactation-boosting soup at the beginning to the current nourishing bird's nest, donkey-hide gelatin, ancient secret brown sugar, beauty-enhancing flower tea, etc., as long as there is market demand, different types of nourishing products will continue to be produced.
The medical cosmetics series ranges from lotions and facial creams to lipsticks, shampoos, shower gels, toothpastes, sanitary napkins, etc., covering all daily necessities.
Nowadays, it is popular to give Yu Meiren toiletries or a full set of cosmetics as gifts, which is the first choice for ordinary people. The target audience of female supplements is wealthy wives and female stars. They are high-end products with unfriendly prices and limited purchases. They can only be purchased at the official headquarters. In short, they are just a gimmick.
Song Shixia is preparing her graduate thesis. She is not planning to pursue a doctorate and wants to graduate as soon as possible and enter retirement life early.
Her life was so comfortable that she could spend her free time reading books and doing product research and development. She didn't have to take care of the company herself as there was a dedicated person in charge of the other technology company in which she held shares. She only needed to take time to look at the contracts and the accounts. With Professor Ji as an external aid, she could get feedback on any internal problems at the first time.
She gave all her cash to her brother to invest in the company, and now the dividends alone can make her a lifelong beggar. She can make medicinal wine and tea cakes based on her mood, because people are begging to buy them anyway. The last thing she lacks is money. She wants to invest as long as she has cash in hand, and she doesn't feel bad even if she loses.
She relied on her intuition to invest in five companies, two of which were preparing to do Internet business. They were even her rivals. However, to her, both companies had the qualifications to become potential stocks, and she would make a steady profit no matter which one won.
Under her influence, her brother and sister also invested in the Internet and held 2% of the shares. They did not dare to invest more for fear of losing their money.
Song Shixia's investments all start with 10% of the shares, and some small companies are eager to be chosen by her for investment. She is generous and never interferes with the company's affairs. Who doesn't like such an investor?
Although I didn't get a good rest, days of money and leisure were beckoning to me, just waiting for graduation from graduate school.
She lay in a rocking chair, basking in the sun, peeling an orange, with the mini radio beside her playing the noon news broadcast. The news announcer was Yanran, and she was one step closer to her dream.
The mini lithium battery radio is a gadget invented by He Jianjun. They made some improved products and sold them, which are doing well.
This radio is only eight inches in size and five centimeters thick. It can be used to insert tapes and also has an antenna to receive programs. It can be considered the granddaddy of walkmans.
Mini radios became all the rage when they first came out. They were affordable, small in size and could be carried around. Young people on the streets would carry radios around their waists, playing pop songs wherever they went.
He Jianjun gave her one when it was first made. She usually uses it to help her sleep while taking a nap or listening to news channels.
Ji Yang and his brother rode their bicycles into the yard. The bicycles were birthday gifts from Dean Liang. She only found out later that the two bicycles were designed by Dean Liang himself. She thought that Dean Liang had a very high level of aesthetics.
These two bicycles are completely different from the bicycles on the market. They are like the later mountain bikes. They look cool when boys ride them, but it’s a pity that they can’t carry passengers on the back.
"Mom, we're done with school!"
After they learned to ride bicycles, they would go home for lunch every day. The food in the cafeteria was not enough for the two children with such voracious appetites that she had raised.
She raised her hand lazily and said, "The rice is in the rice cooker, and the vegetables can be heated in the microwave for one minute. Go ahead."
Ji Yuan came over and asked for two orange slices, which were so sour that his facial features wrinkled.
“So sour, so sour.”
Song Shixia was eating well.
"You are unlucky. You got the sourest one."
Ji Yang took the last two orange slices, took a bite and immediately closed his eyes.
Song Shixia's face was full of question marks: "Is it really that sour?"
"Sour, very sour."
Song Shixia couldn't figure out the reason: "Maybe it's not suitable for you to eat oranges today, so hurry up and eat."
She got up from the recliner. She could bask in the sunlight after eleven o'clock, but the sunlight at twelve o'clock would burn her skin.
The two children helped themselves to rice and hot dishes while she leaned against the door.
"You two brothers Xuemin and Xueren are going to enlist in the army this weekend. Let's go to the station to see you off."
Ji Yang sat down with his bowl in hand: "Didn't my cousin finish secondary school?"
Song Shixia did not hide it from the children: "Yes, having a diploma will be an advantage when you join the army and get promoted."
Chen Xuemin and Chen Xueren were two naughty kids when they were young. After receiving education from her and witnessing a bad kid being sentenced to jail for extortion, they immediately became honest. Although they are still naughty, they grew up peacefully and even went to technical secondary school.
Time flies! Chen Xueyan is already a freshman in college.
Ji Yuan whispered: "My cousin is too bad to be a soldier. My uncle is the best soldier!"
Song Shixia patiently explained to them: "Since they are willing to join the army, they will definitely accept the transformation into soldiers who protect their country."
The shadow left by childhood was too deep. The boys would only see their cousin during the Chinese New Year, and even then they would go around him. Song Shixia never interfered with their wishes.
The two brothers washed their own bowls and plates after dinner. The whole family knew that their mother didn't like washing dishes. Usually, the nanny and father did the dishes. Since they were able to control the faucet, they washed their own bowls.
The school is only a fifteen-minute walk from home, or a few minutes by bike. As soon as the children left, Aunt Feng rushed over.
"Thank you for catching a big fish, you are in for a treat."
Song Shixia couldn't help but feel nauseous when she saw the fish in the plastic bucket. Aunt Feng was reminiscing about the grilled fish she had eaten last time.
"The grilled fish you made last time was delicious. This big fish is enough for your whole family."
Song Shixia ran to the bathroom and vomited for a while, and Aunt Feng quickly put down the bucket.
"What's wrong with you? Are you cold?"
Song Shixia rinsed her mouth and came out.
"Maybe I caught a cold. I've been feeling listless lately and always want to lie down and rest. I'll take an amoxicillin."
"You should exercise more. Your professor Ji runs every morning. I see you stay at home except for classes. You catch a cold every time the season changes. You're like a child."
Song Shixia looked around with a guilty conscience.
"I have too much to do at home. I will start exercising tomorrow."
Feng Lian said earnestly: "You are so young, don't waste your time. Try to take less medicine. Medicine is poisonous."
Song Shixia pointed at herself and laughed: "Auntie, have you forgotten that I'm a Chinese medicine doctor?"
Feng Lian laughed unhappily and said, "They say that doctors don't treat themselves. Doctors also have to go to the hospital to see patients."
"Who said that? It's just a cold. Let me take your pulse." Song Shixia said as he put his hand on his own pulse.
Her expression became more and more strange. Seeing her serious look, Feng Lian even breathed more slowly.
Oh no, Song Shixia was in a complicated mood. If nothing unexpected happened, an accident must have happened.
The number of words is a bit small, but don't worry, by the time you wake up, this chapter will have become 3,000 words.
I checked a lot of information, and found that young professors, academicians, etc. all refer to each other's age, so it is not an exaggeration. The real big guys are so powerful that it is unimaginable!
