The short two words have unusual weight.
It is easy for people to recognize the strong. For example, Xia Xiaolan is now going back to Dahe Village for a round, I am afraid that the long-tongued women who used to point fingers will come around and praise her.
No way, who told her to live better than everyone in Dahe Village, in front of the strong, all the rumors disappeared.
Recognizing people who are not as good as you really doesn't have a sense of accomplishment. You have to be recognized by people who are stronger than yourself... It feels really good, just like this moment.
Mr. Zhou has never hated Xia Xiaolan, and he knew that Xia Xiaolan was excellent when they first met.
The Zhou family doesn't need to rely on marriage to ascend the throne. It doesn't matter what family background Zhou Cheng's future wife is. The only concern of Mr. Zhou is that Xia Xiaolan is like a sharp sword, which is easy to break.
This is the only reason why he does not agree with Xia Xiaolan and Zhou Cheng being together.
But after the incident in the army, both Zhou Cheng and Xia Xiaolan were changing. They were reflecting on themselves and growing.
In the past, Xia Xiaolan might have kept a distance from the Zhou family, and her intimacy with the Zhou family seemed like a burden of distress to her.
Zhou Cheng in the past would not be as calm as he is now.
Before, Zhou Cheng was dissatisfied with the punishment given to him by the army, so he simply went home on vacation. This was a passive confrontation... Now that he has made merit but encountered isolation and censorship, Zhou Cheng did not make a fuss, he learned to wait patiently.
These two flames collided together, not being lawless, but converging for each other?
Mr. Zhou is happy to see such a change. He doesn't think "love" is ridiculous. Every boy becomes a man, and there is more or less a woman who will make a difference. Looking at it now, Xia Xiaolan means this to Zhou Cheng. chant.
Of course, the fact that the old man asked Xia Xiaolan to come to the house also has something to do with Xia Xiaolan winning the special prize in the competition.
"In this competition, I heard that the winner will go abroad as an exchange student?"
After dinner, the whole room was chatting, and the old man Zhou asked Xia Xiaolan. At first, Zhou Yi didn't know why he was called to eat today. Practice, the treatment is so high, Zhou Yi is very uncomfortable.
When Mr. Zhou spoke, did Zhou Yi know that he still won the award?
The English competition is not a concern of the whole people. Now the news is slowed down, and the programs recorded by the TV station are still being edited. Not everyone in the Zhou family knows that Xia Xiaolan has won the award.
A room full of people, it doesn't matter whether they understand the competition or not. Old Man Zhou mentioned it, and they should pay attention to it. They all looked at Xia Xiaolan, waiting for her to answer the old man.
"Yes, you heard it right. The Ministry of Education will send the winners of the finals to foreign universities as exchange students. The specific time has not yet been set. I don't know if it will be next year, and if so, how long it will take."
The exchange student Xia Xiaolan was definitely going, and she had another purpose, to go abroad to find a son for Grandma Yu.
The old man Zhou asked in public what this meant. Could it be that the old man didn't want her to go?
Xia Xiaolan was also anxious. The old man did not mention Wang Guangping at all, but Wang Guangping was transferred to the Party History Office. Is it possible to say that the old man did not contribute at all?
Wang Guangping is not the only incompetent cadre. The Department of Higher Education will definitely not deal with it so hard, nor will it be so fast.
Only when someone speaks from the top down and raises questions about Wang Guangping will this person be transferred to the Party History Office.
Wang Guangping still remains in the higher education department and has hope of turning over. He is not afraid to sit on the bench for a long time. When the current director is transferred or promoted, the new director will drag Wang Guangping out of the cold bench again?
It would be impossible to go to the Party History Office. After wasting time in the Party history materials, there are so many young reserve cadres, who still remembers a Wang Guangping? It's similar to being sent to a farm again, except that you don't have to work and your living conditions are better, but for a person who is obsessed with power, the Party History Office is really more desperate than the farm.
As far as Xia Xiaolan is concerned, the old man Zhou has just helped her out a lot, and she still has to listen to the old man's opinion.
Fortunately, the old man told her not to go without opening his mouth, as if he wanted to confirm the situation from her mouth.
Gu Siyan finally couldn't bear it any longer, "Sister Xia, what grandpa said was the National College English Contest, did you win the prize?"
Although Gu Zhengqing was not in the Department of Higher Education, he also mentioned this competition at home in order to make Gu Siyan pay more attention to English. The Ministry of Education launched this competition to prove that "English" will become more and more important. Now it is only a subject of the college entrance examination, and it will show its importance in other aspects in the future.
The keyword "exchange student" made Gu Siyan grasp the key point, and it must be related to the English competition!
Cheng Min, the daughter of aunt's family, also pressed on Tuesday, "Is the English competition mentioned in the newspaper?"
Xia Xiaolan hadn't answered yet, Grandma Zhou held back for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to show off: "It's this English competition. College students from all over the country will compete together. First, 200 college students will be selected to take the test together in Beijing, and then 20 students will be selected to continue the finals. Going to video... in a few years, you'll see the show on TV."
"Grandma, how do you know so well?"
"I went to the finals!"
Is the old lady being too eccentric?
Not only Zhou Yi thinks this way, but everyone else thinks the same way. When Zhou Yi went to school, the old lady didn't say that she went to school. Gu Siyan and Cheng Min didn't have the treatment. She was too caring for Xia Xiaolan as an outsider!
Zhou Yi's mother suddenly laughed, "So Xiaolan must have won a good place?"
Xia Xiaolan knew that Zhou Cheng's aunt was probably being careful again. She smiled reservedly and did not say anything about herself.
How good is his name. Grandma Zhou raised her voice, thinking of the day when Xia Xiaolan won the award, she was quite excited:
"Isn't it a good name? First prize! You say this girl is so smart and can speak the words of foreigners so well!"
The eldest aunt begged for benevolence and was beaten in the face.
Gu Zhengqing was already laughing: "That's to celebrate, Xiaolan, my uncle hasn't congratulated you yet! The special prize of this competition is not easy to win. I guess you are the only freshman in the finals?"
Gu Zhengqing immediately made a brief introduction to the English competition for others.
If she wants to win the first prize, Xia Xiaolan is not just overcoming five hurdles, she has to compete with college students all over the country—hehe, they even won. Except for Gu Zhengqing, the Zhou family is not particularly good at studying. A person who can be ranked first in the country in the college entrance examination and won the first prize in the English competition, can you blame Grandma Zhou for being biased?
It turned out to be so.
Zhou Yi saw several cousins and sisters pestering Xia Xiaolan to ask questions, and finally understood the purpose of the old man calling the family today.
The reunion dinner is not important, nor is it Xia Xiaolan's winter vacation to practice, it is for Xia Xiaolan to hold a show-off meeting, let the whole family know that Xia Xiaolan can't fault the old man's satisfaction... The old man has completely accepted Xia Xiaolan.
Zhou Yi felt that her chest was stuffy, and it was no surprise that Xia Xiaolan would be her sister-in-law in the future.
Looking at the current Zhou family, she has to rely on Zhou Cheng in the future, which means that if Zhou Yi wants to live a comfortable life, she has to have a good relationship with Xia Xiaolan - she was really killed by Tong Lili, who offended Xia Xiaolan before. So deep, is it still too late to pull down your face to get closer? ####Yes, I went to watch Avengers 3 yesterday. As a Marvel movie fan, I can't calm down for a long time. The update is finished...o(╥﹏╥)o
