A foreign city, dear you

There is finally a chill along the city, because time has come to December.

But unlike my hometown in the mainland, the trees here do not lose their leaves in winter and remain lush and green, as if I cannot feel the change of seasons.

Cao Xueqian and Ye Lian lived every day step by step.

Now that they have two monthly wages, their money is no longer so tight. Ye Lian also bought a beautiful red Samsung flip phone. The dilemma caused by being robbed of three hundred yuan by a motorcycle has become a thing of the past.

The last time Ye Lian suffered from hypoglycemia because she didn't eat breakfast, Cao Xueqian felt distressed and blamed himself. In order to stop Ye Lian from saving, he immediately asked Jia Liwen to lend Ye Lian another two hundred yuan and told her to eat enough. Well, don’t save money foolishly anymore.

As soon as Cao Xueqian's salary was paid in the second month, he paid back the two hundred yuan and gave the rest to Ye Lian.

Cao Xueqian felt that it was natural to hand over his salary to Ye Lian for safekeeping. When he needed money, he would ask Ye Lian to get it. Besides, he didn't need much money in life.

Since being reinstated as an assistant engineer, Cao Xueqian has been relatively successful at work. But now the factory is receiving more and more orders, and the products are becoming more and more complex. Cao Xueqian is under increasing pressure. He needs to work overtime until very late every day to barely cope.

It's hard work, but his potential is constantly being stimulated under extreme pressure, and his technical abilities are also improving day by day unknowingly.

Ye Lian's teaching work was also normal, and her body did not suffer from hypoglycemia again.

She didn't put the salary that Cao Xueqian gave her in a secret place. Whether it was cash or salary card, she put it in a place that both she and Cao Xueqian knew.

She knew that Cao Xueqian wanted to pamper her and give her a sense of security, but she also wanted Cao Xueqian to have the freedom of money.

Ye Lian is very contented. She feels that her life with Qian is slowly becoming dull and beautiful. It would be better if her son can be by her side.

But two days later, Ye Lian received a special task, which troubled her quite a bit.

Here's the thing.

New Year's Day is coming soon, and the He'ao Village Committee wants to hold a party and asks Meiying School to arrange some interesting programs.

After research, school leaders identified several singing and dancing programs, as well as two or three language programs, including cross talk and sketches.

However, school leaders felt that the number of programs was not enough and the categories should be more diverse, so they decided to schedule one more English program.

I don’t know what they were thinking, but they finally gave this task to Ye Lian.

Ye Lian was not happy with this task.

In terms of teaching, the new class will end soon, and then the intense review will begin.

It was hard enough for her to cross grades and stages, but now she has to face the multiple tasks of teaching, class management and rehearsing programs, which makes her feel even more stressed.

Moreover, when it comes to arranging the program, she is still a bride getting on the sedan chair - for the first time, what kind of program will be arranged? How to arrange? She was completely blind.

Ye Lian reluctantly accepted the task, feeling that there was a heavy burden on her shoulders.

If she messes up the show, where will her face go? What will colleagues and leaders think of her?

How to do?

The task has been put down, and we can only move forward with the load.

Ye Lian then thought about this program every day.

After a period of consideration and preparation, Ye Lian finally decided on an English sketch program called "The Fox and the Rooster"

Human potential is really forced out.

Ye Lian was first forced to become a "screenwriter". She had to write a script first.

Then she was forced to become a "director."

She first selected two young actors in her class, and then guided them on how to perform while thinking about it on her own.

Fortunately, there is a little girl named Lin Yunxiang who has good English skills, strong comprehension and expressive skills, which makes Ye Lian much easier.

Another little boy named He Yongmin is relatively poor in terms of vocabulary, pronunciation, sentence structure and expressiveness, so Ye Lian has to spend more time.

In rehearsals, Ye Lian can only make use of every opportunity. She sometimes uses a certain break time, but most of the time she uses a short period of time after school.

Of course, other people's programs will sometimes be rehearsed after school, but the rehearsal end time will be different.

Therefore, Ye Lian often feels that the office after school is hers alone.

She has to rehearse.

After rehearsals she had many other jobs.

She was not in a hurry to return to the rental house, she was focused on her work. Because Cao Xueqian often works overtime, she is alone when she returns home.

But one thing is strange. As long as she rehearses the program after school, every time she returns to the office after rehearsing in the classroom, she will always find some snacks on her desk.

Sometimes it's a few candies, sometimes it's a few cookies.

Press a small note under the candy or biscuit. There are a few words scrawled on the note: Don't starve yourself.

Ye Lian is very confused, who could it be?

Ye Lian didn't eat either. She put all the snacks in the drawer and turned the note over and over, but she couldn't tell whose handwriting it was.

She put the note in a notebook, and felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart.

No matter who this person was, this silent love touched her and gave her tired body and mind an instant strength.

During this time, in addition to being busy with school matters, Ye Lian was also paying attention to another thing, that is, she wanted to rent another house.

In my busy life, another year will pass in a flash, and the Chinese New Year will be in just over two months.

Ye Lian and Cao Xueqian discussed that they would not go back to their hometown during the Chinese New Year and let their parents-in-law bring their son to Yancheng.

This not only allows the two old people to come out and see the outside world, but also saves Ye Lian and Cao Xueqian the pain of rushing around in the mighty army returning home, and it is also more cost-effective economically.

The two old men agreed after hearing their suggestion. They had never been out of the small mountain nest and they also wanted to see what the big city was like.

In this way, if three people come in at once, the current rental house will be too small. Ye Lian thought that since money was no longer so tight, she would rent a one-bedroom and one-living house. No matter how big it was, she still couldn't afford it.

The matter of renting a house is on the agenda, but I am not in a hurry because the half-year deadline for the house I currently live in is still more than one month away.

It's best to go out with Cao Xueqian on the weekends.

Two people holding hands looking for a house can be regarded as a kind of romance...

……

After two weeks of rehearsals, the English skit turned out to be somewhat decent.

Lin Yunxiang's fluent English, vivid expressions and appropriate body movements vividly show the rooster's vigilance when he starts to be wary of the fox to his triumph when he finally catches the fox;

And He Yongmin has made rapid progress through his hard training. He also performed the fox's cunning when waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack and his anger when being pranked by the rooster in a way that makes people laugh.

Thinking about it, Ye Lian was still worried about the program at the beginning, but now she is becoming more and more confident.

On this day, it was another rehearsal program after school.

Because she was thinking about that strange thing, Ye Lian deliberately didn't rehearse for that long and let the two young actors leave relatively early.

Ye Lian hurried to the office to see if there was anyone in the office. Who put the snacks on her desk?

This question had been lingering in her mind for a long time, and she wanted to find out and find out the answer.
