Chapter 35 Changing Aunt's Fate Starts with Graduate School
"Auntie, do you want to go to graduate school?"
"I...I don't know. I kind of want to study, but I also want to work. I can't be almost 30 years old and have to spend family money."
"Wei Hong, you know the current situation at home. There is really no shortage of you. You should follow your heart and make your own choices. The Chinese New Year is coming up in the past few days, and there are a lot of things in my work unit.
After the Chinese New Year holiday, Xiaoyong and I will study carefully and see how to plan the use of family funds. If you want to go to school, your family must support you." Sun Weiguo, the head of the family, spoke.
"Auntie, you should go to graduate school. Can you change your major?"
"Change major? I am currently majoring in accounting, what major should I change to?"
"You are currently majoring in accounting. The majors you choose for your master's degree, as long as they are finance and economics, should be interchangeable. It's just a matter of taking a few more professional courses." Cao Yong, the person with the highest degree present, spoke more authoritatively.
"Auntie, your internship is at Hua Xia Bank. I see that you talk about banking business very clearly. Our family will definitely have a lot of banking business in the future. So, you might as well study a major related to banking work. In this way, our family will be better in the future.
If there is any banking business, you may not have to do it yourself, but at least we have a good background."
Cao Yong continued: "What Dahai said makes sense. You are a girl, and you are gentle and quiet. It is better to work in a bank. I am not sure about the majors set up by domestic universities, but it should be finance or international finance.
It is the most relevant major for banks."
"It's great to work in a bank. Think about it, you can't be blown by the wind, you can't be caught by the rain, and you can sit in the office all day. If you follow what Dahai said, you'd better study international finance and try to do international business in the future.
In the future, we will have many financial transactions with Xiangjiang." Li Cuifeng also hopes that Sun Weihong can work in a bank.
Sun Weihong was still a little hesitant, but Jiang Xiuping said, "There's no rush. You should think carefully first. It's still early before you need to make a decision."
"Okay, let me think about it in the next few days. When it suddenly came up that I should go to graduate school again, I was not mentally prepared at all. When the instructor mobilized me before going home, I didn't even think about it."
It was late at night, and everyone went back to their rooms to prepare for bed.
Sun Dahai grabbed Sun Weihong who was about to wash up, and the two of them whispered to each other.
"Auntie, are you worried about money, that's why you don't want to go to graduate school?"
"That's probably the reason. Your Aunt Xiaoyue and I didn't go directly from middle school to university. We worked for a few years between us. So, when I go back to school, I always feel like I'm just doing nothing."
"What you think is incomplete. If you study for a few more years now, your contribution to the family will be much greater in the future. Can it be the same if you graduate from graduate school and graduate from university? Besides, didn't my dad say that the family is now
We have public money so that we have no worries. You think, we use the name of Xiangjiang Company to invest in the pig breeding farm and pig farm in Qianjiachuan Village. Grandpa and the others will help keep an eye on it. If the scale grows in the future,
What? Or if we invest in something else in the future and no one helps us, what should we do?"
Sun Weihong thought about it and didn't know what to do.
"Then we either have our own people who can directly manage the investment, or we have people who understand finance and can control the use of funds. Think about it, who else can do this in our family besides you? My parents don't need to mention it.
My uncle and aunt are both soldiers. Unless they change careers, they won’t be able to do it. You are the only one left..."
"If I can do things for my family, of course I am willing. It's just..."
"Auntie, you go to school first and work in a bank after graduation. For our company, you only need to check the accounts regularly. The rest will be discussed later when the company develops. Didn't grandma say that the big yellow croaker will be given to us? I
I asked her, and she said she had to make her own arrangements and the family would not care. I want Uncle Xiaoyong to help me sell the money and open an account in Xiangjiang. If you have a chance, invest in something in Xiangjiang. If you don’t want to spend your family’s money, you can
You can be like me, let's be prepared. Let's see if there are any investment opportunities from Uncle Xiaoyong or Grandpa Huang."
"Dahai, do you think this can be done?"
"I think it's okay. Uncle Xiaoyong and Grandpa Huang will not harm us."
"Okay, Dahai, Auntie will listen to you this time."
…
On Saturday evening, Sun Dahai carried a large multi-layered insulator, followed by the round Sun Yuanyuan, and walked into the senior cadre ward of the Capital Military Region General Hospital.
"Grandpa, we are here." After hearing Sun Dahai call Mr. Huang "grandpa", Sun Yuanyuan also omitted the word "huang" and directly called him "grandpa". Not only did Mr. Huang not object, but he enjoyed it.
"Yuanyuan, why are you here by yourself?" Mr. Huang didn't see Sun Dahai and couldn't help but be a little confused.
"Brother went to Gao Gan's cafeteria to prepare dishes for you. I asked him what we were having for dinner, but he didn't tell me and said he wanted to keep it a secret."
"This kid has to work hard to cook a lot of dishes every time. I've gained weight recently."
"Brother said that you have to work, and even if I want to cook for you in the future, you may not be able to eat. So I have to cook more now. Grandpa, I learned a new dance this week, let me dance it for you...
…”
After a while, Sun Dahai pushed a food delivery cart into the ward.
"Hello grandpa. Hey, where is your secretary?"
"When I went to the ministry to report yesterday, the ministry had assigned me a secretary. Today is the weekend. I gave him a day off and asked him to go back and wait until Monday. Dahai, I will be discharged from the hospital on Monday morning."
"You will be discharged from the hospital on Monday? Deputy Director Jin said you are fine?"
"I have a chronic disease that cannot be cured. After these days of treatment, I have gotten much better. Monday is February 2nd, and the Spring Festival is on the 5th. I can't spend the New Year in the hospital."
"Grandpa, you promised me that you would go to my house to celebrate the New Year this year."
"And me, and me, grandpa, you also promised me." Yuanyuan is a little drama queen.
"Okay, I will spend the Spring Festival at your house this year."
"Grandpa, let's eat first. The food will be cold soon." Sun Dahai placed the dishes in the food truck on the table.
"Wow, it's so rich!" Sun Yuanyuan looked over and her mouth watered.
"Wash your hands, little greedy cat." Sun Dahai slapped away Sun Yuanyuan's secretly stretched out paw.
"Let me see what's there. Yuanyuan is so greedy." Mr. Huang got down from the hospital bed.
White meat with garlic paste, peanuts with vinegar, braised lion's head, liver tips, hot kohlrabi, vinegar cabbage, and then a small pot of sauerkraut stewed with blood sausage.
Mr. Huang was surprised: "The sea is so rich. Isn't it a bit much?"
"I thought your new driver and new secretary would be here. No, I made it for four people. You and us brothers and sisters, let's count the three for two people."
Mr. Huang patted Sun Dahai on the head: "Good boy, you are serious."
Sun Yuanyuan asked: "Brother, you prepared these dishes so quickly?"
"Silly sister, I make the cold dishes at home and mix them freshly here. The braised blood sausage with sauerkraut is also made, just heat it up. The lion's head has to be made in advance. When you go to the cafeteria, you only need to thicken the sauce and add it.
The fried liver tip is what I made just now."
"Oh. Brother, are there two more dishes?"
"That was made by the master chef of the cafeteria. I brought it over by the way. There is also this bowl of rice, which is also from the cafeteria. I can't make it all at home. I don't cook it at home if it is available in these cafeterias."
"I said, why do these two dishes look so familiar? It turns out they are made here. I have been eating these two dishes these days."
"In this winter, it would be great to have green vegetables to eat. You are in a senior cadre ward here, so you can eat fresh green vegetables. Most people can only rely on the cabbage stored at the beginning of winter to survive the winter."
"Yes, so we must speed up the pace of reform and opening up to make the people rich as soon as possible. Dahai, you asked me last time about your family's investment. How is it going now? After dinner, tell me."
