Far away in Moscow

Chapter 105 Xiang Nan's Future

Xiang Nan stared at the wall of the room in a daze for a while.Just like Hu Yi and most of her peers back then, she didn't know much about the world outside of family and classroom, and she had no idea about such a big event as going abroad to study.

"I think...it should be okay." After thinking for a while, Xiang Nan nodded vigorously with a childish face: "I'm not afraid of hardship. And...with Brother Hu Yi, I will definitely not be in danger."

"Haha, that's right!" Hu Yi Renjun couldn't help but said, "However, you can't always count on others when you go out, sometimes you have to rely on yourself."

"Oh." Xiang Nan agreed blankly, and couldn't help but sneak a glance at his brother.

"Your brother Hu Yi is right. We used to take you to play, but we couldn't take care of you forever. Now that you have grown up, you must learn to face society independently as soon as possible." Xiang Dong's words contained three points of comfort, Seven points to teach.Then he said to Hu Yi: "But she is a girl after all. If she really goes out in the future, you should teach her more, so that she won't suffer."

"Of course!" Hu Yi agreed without hesitation: "Do you still need to tell me about this matter? Nan Nan is like my own sister, what are you worried about?"

"Don't worry, I don't worry! I knew that Brother Yi must be reliable." Xiang Dong blinked excitedly: "Actually, before you returned to China, my parents asked an intermediary to inquire about Minsk in Belarus and Kiev in Ukraine. There are some Gele from your place, but I am always worried that Nan Nan will go abroad alone. After much deliberation, it is better to go to Moscow, after all, you are there, and you can help her if something big happens. Bundle."

"This is a bit out of line, do we still need to be polite?" Hu Yi pondered for a while, nodded and smiled: "Since uncles and aunts have made plans, I will pick up a few key points and talk about them. You two go back and talk to them Discuss and discuss, if you think there is no problem, let's talk about the next thing."

"Okay, tell me!" Xiang Dong cheered up, and nodded to Xiang Nan: "Nan Nan, listen carefully!"

"Going to school in Russia is different from going to the United Kingdom and the United States. You don't need to take IELTS or TOEFL. What major are you studying?"

"Well... I haven't thought about it yet." Xiang Nan pursed her lips: "Anyway, I'm very bad in mathematics, physics and chemistry. The teacher said that I don't have that brain, so I can only study liberal arts."

"Then you are in the same situation as me." Hu Yi laughed happily: "Your family members should study this matter carefully, and you must choose carefully. At the beginning, I chose the wrong major by accident, and it ended up being delayed for a whole year. .”

Xiang Dong nodded again and again: "Yes, you must be cautious."

"Then there is the question of money. Different majors have different tuition fees, and the first year of preparatory courses will be cheaper. From the perspective of my current school and major, the total cost of one year is about... [-] US dollars is almost enough. But if If you want Nannan to live comfortably, and considering the round-trip travel expenses to return home during the holidays, then you'd better prepare more. And it will take at least five years from preparatory school to graduation, so uncles and aunts have to make long-term plans."

"Of course, that's not a problem." Xiang Dong straightened his back and patted his chest: "I can make some money now, and I'll make up for her if the family doesn't have enough!"

"Okay, what a good brother." Hu Yi smiled slightly, and then straightened his face: "The following question is very important. The 'danger' I mentioned just now does exist. It is no exaggeration to say that there The law and order situation in China is completely different from what you can imagine in China."

"I also know something about it. There are terrorists over there." Xiang Dong interjected: "Our family has been paying attention to the news related to Moscow recently. It seems that hundreds of hostages were kidnapped in a theater last year. It sounds very intrusive. of."

"That's right, there are quite a lot of terrorist activities over there. There are also bombs... um... something."

"Bomb?" Xiang Nan asked with wide eyes: "Brother Hu Yi, have you encountered it?"

"Me? I haven't experienced it myself, but sometimes I hear about it." Hu Yi tilted his head and recalled: "This kind of thing was more frequent in the past, but it seems to be relatively peaceful in the past two years."

"That's good." The brothers and sisters looked at each other, nodded in unison, and looked at Hu Yi together: "What else?"

Hu Yi pondered for a while, and planned to mention the Russian skinheads, but thought that skinheads rarely attack women, and they are rare in the vicinity of Youda. The threat to Xiang Nan is almost negligible, so there is no need to speak out to scare them. So skip this question:
"The last point, Nannan, you need to take care of yourself. Your parents sent you abroad to study, but you have never left home since you were a child, and now you have just graduated from high school and went to live in a strange environment. All kinds of incompatibility. You have to be fully mentally prepared, work hard to overcome difficulties, and persist in completing your studies. Of course, I will try my best to help you, but the key lies in yourself.”

"Well, I remember."

"The most important thing to adapt to the environment is language communication skills. Russian is difficult to learn, and this is the biggest difficulty you will face." Hu Yi recalled all the troubles caused by the language barrier when he and a group of classmates first arrived in Moscow. He couldn't stop but said earnestly: "If you finally decide to go to school in Russia, you must learn some basic Russian language in advance, so as not to be caught off guard."

"I see." Xiang Nan agreed earnestly and tenderly: "I will study hard."

"En." Hu Yi pondered for a while. After all, every word he said now may affect the decision made by Xiang Nan's family, and then directly affect Xiang Nan's future whereabouts and future. He couldn't help but treat it cautiously.

It wasn't until he felt that he had clarified all the issues that needed to be discussed, that Hu Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's about all that needs attention, go home and discuss with your uncles and aunts, and call me if you have any questions. "

"Okay! Let's discuss it immediately when we get back tonight." Xiang Dong spread his five fingers and crossed his messy hair casually. Only then did he realize that he had chatted for too long, and hurriedly picked up his chopsticks and pointed to the table with an apology. Qi's five or six dishes: "Oh, I'm too busy talking, the dishes are getting cold! Eat, eat!"

After returning home that day, the siblings told their parents what Hu Yi said truthfully. The whole family discussed together for a long time and agreed that sending Xiang Nan to study in Russia was the best choice at present.

Of course, just having two kids talking in the middle is not enough to reassure parents.A few days later, they invited Hu Yi to their home, intending to finalize the details.
