"Are you out of your mind?" Jiang Yizhou couldn't help but curse. "Aren't you tired? Isn't work exhausting? Can't you just wash up and go to sleep at home?"
Ding Zhengnan replied with righteous indignation, "Sorry, I'm very free!"
What about your sense of justice? Don't you feel ashamed living off your parents like this? Although I also rely on my parents a bit, I wouldn't go so far as to not work at all, right?
In the end, he still couldn't escape from this crazy woman. When he got home, he locked the yard gate, added an extra lock to his bicycle, and secured all the doors and windows tightly. Fortunately, it wasn't winter; he wouldn't die from carbon monoxide poisoning due to burning coal.
...
"Ding Zhengnan is back! Come, come, come, look at the works painted by Grandpa—Water Margin One Hundred and Eight Heroes. Once it's finished, I'll definitely have them send me a set!" Ding Zhantong proudly showed off his several pieces and pulled his granddaughter to admire them together.
Ding Zhengnan felt a bit depressed. As soon as the old man saw her expression, he immediately thought of something. "Is it something your dad did that made you unhappy again? Is it about arranging a job or a blind date?"
"No, I just ran into a weirdo," Ding Zhengnan said with a low mood. "Forget about that, Grandpa. Can I help you?"
Ding Zhantong frowned slightly. "It's already evening. I've worked all day; do you want me to keep working? You should just make me a meal instead."
"Sure!" Ding Zhengnan said as she headed to the kitchen, putting on an apron and quickly starting to cook.
Coming back was unfortunate. Ding Zhengnan originally planned to take the graduate entrance exam and thought she could probably pass. She had no intention of looking for a job at all. In the end, she missed the cutoff by just one point and didn't even get a chance to struggle. She also hastily completed her graduation thesis and received her diploma and degree certificate.
Meanwhile, her father kept pushing her to get a job and prepare to take over the family business while he planned outdoor activities with his friends—hiking, trekking through primeval forests! Although he hadn't retired yet, he still found time to play around. But how could that compare to being retired and relaxing without restraint?
Later on, she moved in with her grandfather, who was busy painting and gathering with old friends and students for discussions and exchanges. He hardly paid attention to her, so she simply became a homebody.
But justice must be upheld even as a homebody; that's what true happiness is!
Once again, when returning to work, Jiang Yizhou was unexpectedly told by Uncle that he didn't need to come back for lunch anymore. He felt a bit regretful and that it added another expense.
However, he found it even stranger to hear phrases like "the hall is made of gold" from Uncle. Could it be that he was deceived by those mutated impostors of Christian doctrine, which were actually false churches?
A hall made of gold—such a vulgar yet straightforward doctrine—he didn't think it was good at all; it was purely something meant to fool people.
"This can't be done like this, because..."
Suddenly feeling someone patting his shoulder from behind, Jiang Yizhou turned around to see his boss.
Following Sun Yuliang into the office, he asked, "Is there something you need, Brother Sun?"
"I remember you don't have any certificates, right? The next Computer certification exam is in September, and registration is from May to July. You should just register along with this batch of students!"
"Oh, I’ll remember that."
Jiang Yizhou's enthusiasm was low; having already found a job, he lacked the motivation.
"It's not just me," Sun Yuliang said, tapping on the glass surface of the tea table. "You should pay attention to these things; it's better to take all the exams you can. It will help you find a job more easily in the future."
Jiang Yizhou began to understand the implication and felt a bit embarrassed. "Brother Sun, are you trying to push me out?"
"I'm just suggesting you make long-term plans. I don't intend for this Training Class to expand too much. By the time your Sister-in-law returns, which should be in about three or four months, you'll need to look for other opportunities. I'm just giving you a heads-up."
Sun Yuliang also felt a bit awkward because he had been so busy during the recruitment process that he forgot about this matter. It only came to mind recently when he thought about hiring some college students.
“……” Jiang Yizhou's face darkened. After finally finding a job, the boss told him, "Sorry, but you'll be unemployed soon."
"But don't worry, I have all the materials for various exams here. If you take a few more certification tests, you should be able to find a better job. I can also reach out to a few classmates who are currently working in related companies. I'm sure they'll give you some opportunities because of me..."
Sun Yuliang felt uncertain about himself. A person without even a graduation certificate, although he had some skills, still seemed untrustworthy since it was all self-taught. Even if he obtained a few certificates, they wouldn't match the required academic qualifications.
But who could have predicted that his wife would suddenly change her mind and decide not to continue her studies or pursue a master's degree!
Plans never keep up with changes; this was exactly that kind of situation.
"Can I use the computer here in the future…"
"Feel free to use it, just be mindful of the time!"
"What about lunch in the future?"
"I'll give you a salary increase; consider it a meal allowance!"
Jiang Yizhou extended his hand, "Pleasure doing business!"
Sun Yuliang paused for a moment before also extending his hand, "Pleasure doing business!"
Ah, academic qualifications really are an insurmountable hurdle! Jiang Yizhou pinched the space between his eyes, wondering if he should spend time getting a degree.
At times, he indeed had this thought. Otherwise, what if he became successful in the future but didn't even have a diploma? Just thinking about it felt wrong!
But time was an issue; he really couldn't bear to think about wasting so much time on school after being reborn!
I don't want to do the same thing twice, like taking the college entrance exam, going to school, or facing death.
"Let's just get a few certificates for now! We can deal with the future when we have money!"
For Jiang Yizhou, who has no lofty ideals, most of his thoughts can be realized through money. Money is the most tangible; if money can't achieve something, then probably no other method can, like not wanting to die.
During the lunch break, he had a simple meal at a restaurant downstairs before returning to his computer in the office.
He checked the local packet from Beijing Western Point Station that he downloaded yesterday. Jiang Yizhou's desire to post again surged as he left comments on many emails—these are meeting emails that can be seen by many people and allow for discussion, just like a meeting—expressing some extremely arrogant opinions about the development of the Internet.
Then he sent out an introduction email for newcomers, introducing himself and, of course, mentioning his current situation and the challenges he was facing.
He dialed into the station, uploaded, downloaded, and disconnected from the internet all in one go—saving money!
...
"Why is there another spammer? And a newcomer at that, neship jiang? Who is this?" After work, Lin Jun, who manages the website, opened the profile while managing the site and sighed, "Looks like someone who really doesn't understand anything. I'll just send him a warning email!"
