Farmer's Struggle

Chapter 516 Embarrassment
This kind of thing is quite common in their industry. Some projects have been carried out for many years, but the researchers still have to continue to work on them without any results. Even if some projects have research results, they are not worth the final project. Still got chopped off.

Last semester, Qiao Jue worried a lot about the project funding. He applied again and again, but finally got the result he didn't want.

Probably already expected such a result, Qiao Jue didn't feel like the sky was falling.

Later, he went to talk to the leader, and told the leader that his mother was going back to China, and he wanted to ask for leave to accompany Fang Qingmei back to his father-in-law's house, so don't put him in someone else's project team this semester.After working for a while, he wants to find a project that suits him to do it, and work steadily for a few years to make some achievements.

The leader is also very worried about him.

If you want to have a degree, you need to be educated, you need to be knowledgeable, and you want to be a young man who just doesn't put all his mind on work. If he put his mind on work two years earlier, he will definitely have research results. The resume can also look better.

"Little Qiao, young people, especially men, have to pursue some pursuits in their careers. When you are done with your work, take it easy. You can either teach in a down-to-earth manner and train more professionals for the country, or seriously Seriously engage in research and make real achievements in the professional field to contribute to the country. No matter what, you can no longer go fishing for three days and posting on the net for two days!" The leader Beier said earnestly.

Qiao Jue understands the truth, but when the holidays come, his little thoughts start to jump around, and he wants to accompany his wife home without doing anything.

He probably isn't a very ambitious man. To put it more seriously, he puts too much emphasis on the ego and the big ego. He only cares about his children and love for his small family, and doesn't think about giving anything at all.

Is he wrong?
Of course it is.

This is his own choice, a choice that did not touch the legal and moral bottom line, what's wrong? !
After chatting with the leader, he fell into conflict again.

Although the leader didn't say it clearly, he still heard the implication.The leader hopes that he will choose one of teaching and scientific research. Choosing one does not mean giving up the other. It just needs to be focused, and don't try to do both well.People's time and energy are limited, and it is unrealistic to do a good job at both ends.

Qiao Jue didn't say anything to the leader right away, and after returning home, he seriously discussed with Ju Ling.

With Qiao Jue's ability, if he can devote himself to research, it is natural that scientific research can achieve greater value.But the key problem is that it is difficult for him to devote himself wholeheartedly, so it is hard to estimate how much value he will get in the end.

Of course, this is not the first consideration for young couples when making decisions.Ju Ling respects Qiao Jue's choice, he can do whatever he wants, even if he thinks working in school is boring and wants to resign, she has no objection.

Her trust and support gave Qiao Jue confidence and courage. She locked herself in her study for a whole night, and finally Qiao Jue decided to give up scientific research and focus on teaching in the future.

After listening to his decision, Ju Ling asked with a smile: "I heard that doing scientific research, writing papers and publishing articles is faster than purely teaching. You have worked so hard to teach all your life, and you may not have written Can you be reconciled to the high positions of colleagues who have written several papers?"

This is a very real problem.

In addition to completing teaching tasks, there are some additional requirements for job title evaluation in universities. If Qiao Jue doesn't do those things, he may not be promoted to a professor in his entire life.

"Do you care?" Qiao Jue asked her.

Ju Ling shrugged: "This is your job and not mine. I don't care about it, as long as you don't care."

Qiao Jue is a very free and easy person, which is quite similar to Fang Qingmei.Since his wife doesn't care, of course he has to follow his heart and do whatever he wants.

After making a decision, he went to talk to the leader again. The leader was sorry to hear that he wanted to focus his work on teaching, but he didn't persuade him much.

The leader has been working in education for decades, and has seen many strange people and strange things.The more talented people are, the more elusive they are, and the more eccentric they are, Qiao Jue is not bad.

"Xiao Qiao, don't think that concentrating on teaching is an easy job. It's easy to be a good teacher for a day, but it's not easy to be a good teacher for a lifetime. This is a boring job, but also a job full of hope. I look forward to seeing you The day when the world is full of peaches and plums," the leader said to Qiao Jue as if speaking at a school-wide teacher-student meeting.

Qiao Jue, who was originally quite calm, chatted with the leader for a while, and unexpectedly became emotional.

However, no matter how trendy he is, the teaching work has to be postponed for a while, because he has to ask for leave, a long vacation.

Fang Qingmei is also well-known in the academic world. She wants to return to China. As a son, Qiao Jue asks for leave to spend more time with his mother.

He is very happy to ask for leave, and Ju Ling is also very happy.

She first explained the situation to the supervisor, and the supervisor said that she had asked for too many days of leave, and she had to ask the dean of the department for leave, so she went to the dean again.

The director knew Qiao Jue and Fang Qingmei. He heard that Ju Ling asked for leave to accompany her mother-in-law. The director was very happy to approve the leave, but he didn't let Ju Ling go after the leave, but wentssip with her about Fang Qingmei's situation .

It's very weird.

The director, a middle-aged man in his fifties, was no more reserved than the ordinary people in the village who had nothing to do when gossiping. Ju Ling felt uncomfortable with his gossiping eyes.

Of course Ju Ling wouldn't gossip about her mother-in-law with outsiders, no matter what the director asked, she would go over happily and vaguely, and the director felt disappointed and waved her away.

Both of them asked for good leave, and continued to work and go to school nervously at their respective schools. A few days later, Fang Qingmei and her little boyfriend landed at the Kyoto airport, and Qiao Jue drove Ju Ling to pick them up for a few games.

Fang Qingmei gave Ju Ling a big hug before they met, and her enthusiasm caught Ju Ling by surprise.

Fang Qingmei's little boyfriend is more enthusiastic than her, and after a while, he hooks up with Qiao Jue and calls him a brother.

The little boyfriend is Ian, 26 years old, younger than Qiao Jue!

He can speak a little Chinese, and Qiao Jue and Ju Ling don't need to speak foreign languages ​​to him during the communication, as long as Yin En speaks a little slower and more popular, Yin En can understand.

To Ju Ling's surprise, Ian has already finished his Ph.D. at a young age, and now works in a technology company. He is an absolute top technology talent.Unfortunately, it is foreign scientific and technological talents.

Fang Qingmei and Ian are good at chatting, so Ju Ling doesn't feel awkward being with them.

Originally, both Qiao Jue and Ju Ling had packed up their house and wanted them to live at home, but Fang Qingmei felt that it was inconvenient. She didn't want to disturb the lives of her son and daughter-in-law, and she didn't want them to feel that their private sphere was being violated. People occupied, so they booked a hotel before returning home.

Qiao Jue drove them to the hotel and asked them to overcome the jet lag first, and wait for their mental state to be better before doing anything.

After sending him to the hotel, Qiao Jue drove Ju Ling home again.

"How are you, are you not nervous?" Qiao Jue asked Ju Ling with a smile.

Ju Ling was really nervous before the meeting, but she was no longer nervous after the meeting.

"Your mother takes good care of herself. She looks like she's in her early thirties. I hope I can be in this state when I'm 50," Ju Ling said sincerely.

Qiao Jue smiled, and didn't answer her words, but said with a little worry: "Yin En is too young, will it be wrong for my mother to take him home? I'm not worried about anything else, I'm just afraid that people in the village will gossip Parents feel uncomfortable."

Fang Qingmei is more than 20 years older than Ian, this age difference is too big, not to mention being an old wife and young husband, even if it is an old couple and young wife, people will inevitably be talked about.People like Ju Wenqi and Zhang Yongmei who care so much about other people's opinions will definitely feel uncomfortable if they are said because of their in-laws' relationship problems.

Qiao Jue also had this worry before, but this feeling was not so strong without seeing Ian himself. After meeting Ian, he felt that he was a big child, and Qiao Jue became even more worried.

On the contrary, Ju Ling did not worry about this.

She said: "It's okay, my parents will definitely not care about this. My in-laws can take care of themselves so well at this age, and they can find such a young, good-looking and capable partner. My parents will definitely be very proud, absolutely not Afraid of being told by others."

One of the main reasons for not being afraid to talk about it is that they are far away. They may not see Fang Qingmei once for many years. It has passed, and it will not cause trouble to Ju Wenqi and his wife at all.

Qiao Jue was relieved when Ju Ling said this.

When Fang Qingmei and Yin En had almost rested and called them, the four of them reunited to eat and play around.

Fang Qingmei hasn't returned to China for a long time, and she feels emotional when she sees everything.

"The changes are too great. Many places are different from before. Thanks to your company, otherwise I will definitely get lost," Fang Qingmei said sincerely.

Not only to sigh, she and Yin En also like to take pictures, wherever they go, take pictures wherever they go. In Fang Qingmei's words, she doesn't know when she will return to China next time, so she needs to take more photos and record videos. You can use these to comfort your homesickness in the long years.

Qiao Jue called her hypocritical unceremoniously, and even pointed it out: "You can put it down, if you are really homesick, then come back if you want to come back. To put it bluntly, you still don't want to come back that much."

Fang Qingmei is not annoyed by her son, she will always find a suitable topic to divert everyone's attention.

After playing in the capital, Fang Qingmei started to contact friends and former colleagues, and took her little boyfriend to the dinner party for several days to meet friends. Qiao Jue and Ju Ling did not participate.

After emotional contact, the next step is to go to Ju's house.

What Qiao Jue meant was to take the plane to save time, to go to the provincial capital and then transfer to the train to take the train directly to Yunhe. At that time, both Peng Yan and Yin Kaixuan can go to Yunhe to pick them up, which is convenient.

However, Ian was very interested in domestic sleeper trains, and suggested to go there by train. Fang Qingmei also supported him, so Qiao Jue had no choice but to obediently buy a train ticket.

Yin En regards taking the train as if he were going on a field trip. The big suitcase is full of food except for the toiletries and the camera. He starts to eat and drink as soon as he gets on the train. The car is amazing.

Behind Yin Enqiaojue's back, he complained to Ju Ling: "If I knew he was so energetic, I shouldn't have bought him a sleeper berth. I could just buy a hard seat. Anyway, I just sit there and watch the scenery, eat and drink, and save money."

Saving money is impossible to save money, the word saving money does not exist in the dictionary of Yin En and Fang Qingmei.

They got off at Binjiang, and the two of them had to spend a day in Binjiang. On this day, they spent a lot of money.

Binjiang is a small city that barely reaches the first and third tiers, and there are not too many high-consumption places. I don’t know if it’s because of their good eyesight or what.

Fang Qingmei bought a mink coat, and Yin En bought a mink hat. Not counting that, Fang Qingmei also bought additional mink coats for Ju Wenqi and Zhang Yongmei.

When they bought it, Qiao Jue and Ju Ling bought them drinks downstairs, and they had already paid for the drinks when they went upstairs. It's April, and the weather is getting hotter, so there's no chance to wear these, and it's too impractical for you to give gifts."

"What do you know, I'm sending you my heart." Fang Qingmei was quite unconvinced, and refused to return the mink coat anyway.

If you can't persuade them, let them go.

Stayed in Binjiang for one day and took a bus to Yunhe the next day. Peng Yan and Yin Kaixuan picked them up at the gate of the bus station, and the bus drove smoothly to the village.

Get out of the car and meet Ju Wenqi and his wife, and everyone sits together lively and greets each other.To be honest, it is actually very embarrassing to force a topic without a topic, but no one can break this embarrassment in a short time, so we can only bite the bullet and be embarrassed.

Ju Ling was sitting in the corner and digging at the wall in embarrassment, Qiao Jue promptly proposed to take Yin En out to play, and Ju Ling was rescued by the way.

The obedient Yin En in the house seemed to be a different person as soon as he came out, jumping up and down excitedly like a big horse monkey with a camera in his arms. He wanted to take pictures of these graffiti in the village next to each other. The exaggerated yelling caused everyone in the village to come out to see him.

Seeing the foreigner, everyone in the village felt strange, would ask him some questions and tease him with things he had never seen before, Ju Ling looked embarrassed, but Yin En didn't think so, he thought the villagers were very enthusiastic, Be nice to him.

All right, as long as he feels good, nothing else matters.

That night, Brother Long used his housekeeping skills to entertain guests with a large table of special dishes.

After eating and drinking, the atmosphere was finally not so embarrassing.

Ju Ling and Qiao Jue breathed a sigh of relief, but their relief was too early.

Two days later, the grandparents, grandparents, aunts and uncles who got the news, as well as Zhang Lichun and Zhang Liyang, all came.

They thought they didn’t know, but they just came and took a look, and it was unreasonable not to come to see a guest after knowing, it seemed that they didn’t regard other people as relatives, and they were afraid that they would have opinions.

In fact, if they don't come, no one will have any objections. It's embarrassing when they come.

Rao Fang Qingmei, who can chat and socialize, can't find a suitable topic when they meet grandma and grandpa. The whole meeting process is basically just other people chatting and Fang Qingmei listening cheerfully.

What Ju Lingjue did was really not an option, Fang Qingmei was uncomfortable, Ju Wenqi and Zhang Yongmei were also uncomfortable, everyone was uncomfortable.

then what should we do?

Ju Jing thought of a good way to solve this big trouble for Ju Ling and Qiao Jue!
