Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 296
Xue Ling couldn't help but nodded and asked: "Isn't this important enough? Huh? You are marrying a person, not the other person's background and job. If you think too much and worry too much, can you still get married?"

Xiao Jiaxue was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, if you have to think about everything and think everything clearly, then there will not be a good one among the so-called young talents!

Xue Ling whispered: "I am a big-hearted person. I think as long as he is a good person and treats me well, then I am willing to suffer with him. Life will be hard at first, as long as he works hard with me Is it possible that we will continue to suffer from making money? Impossible! The year before last, he and I had nothing, just an adobe house in the countryside, and we had to rent a house in the city. But last year, he opened a store, and I did clothing wholesale. I have bought several apartments in the city, and my life is not tight. This is progress!"

"It doesn't matter if you are poor, but the main thing is to be kind to others, hard-working and hard-working. Such people will not be much worse in the future." Maybe it will be squandered in half a year. This is not difficult to understand!”

Xiao Jiaxue nodded slowly, thoughtfully.

"That's true. But... your family is very rich, so you are not afraid of not having any support."

Xue Ling asked back: "You have knowledge and a stable job. This is also your backing! Isn't it?"

Xiao Jiaxue bit her lower lip lightly and whispered: "I only earn more than 200 yuan a month, which is not a lot. In addition, I spend a lot and don't save much."

"That 200 yuan is enough for living expenses!" Xue Ling said: "Save some money, three meals a day, it is enough to take care of the family inside and outside. In addition, your knowledge and earning power will always be there, this is your backing, no doubt ah!"

"That's right." Xiao Jiaxue took a sip of coffee and explained: "Last year I also took a small commission from the publishing fee, seven to eight hundred."

Xue Ling smiled and whispered: "Then you don't have to be afraid. The job in the publishing house is stable and the money is good, which is enough for you to have the confidence to choose a good man. You don't have to worry about how much he earns or whether he has a good future. Can not guarantee."

"Yes." Xiao Jiaxue finally smiled and whispered: "Then I will choose someone first, and then take care of other things."

"Yes." Xue Ling explained: "If you are in love, you may not be able to think about anything. But you are on a blind date. If you can match the same family, have the same family, and the two of you are the same, that would be great. His person Goods, work, family, housing, etc., you can weigh these appropriately."

Xiao Jiaxue nodded: "I understand, thank you!"

After all, he is an experienced person who has been married before. He speaks eloquently and gives very pertinent opinions.

Xue Ling waved his hand and said: "You're welcome! You're welcome! I have something else to say to you and I'm sorry!"

Xiao Jiaxue raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you say that the translation has been completed? Why are you still sorry? The subsequent manuscripts have been lost?"

"No, Mediu." Xue Ling pulled out a large envelope from his bag, handed it to her, and explained: "The remaining 20 pages of translation are all here, not a single word is missing."

Xiao Jiaxue showed a satisfied smile and said: "You also gained a lot last year! The book from the year before last was published, and I read another one, which is bigger. I also gave birth to a fat son and bought a house. It can be said to be a fruitful harvest!”

Xue Ling stopped and explained: "After reading this book, I have to take a rest. My business is getting bigger and bigger now, and I plan to invest in something else this year. The child is still young, so I probably won't be able to spare time. Translated.”

"Is that so?" Xiao Jiaxue couldn't help but feel pity: "Your major is so good, and your foreign language skills have always been very good. If you fall behind, it will be difficult to pick up in the future."

Xue Ling shrugged and explained with a wry smile: "It's not that I want to give up, it's just that I really can't find the time now. However, I can't bear to give up foreign languages. After all, it's a major that I have studied for so many years, so I can't let it go!"

Xiao Jiaxue took out the manuscript and looked through it a few times. "You said you are getting more and more proficient, why are you willing to give up! How many opportunities do you have to be exposed to foreign languages ​​in a place like Rongcheng? If you don't use it for a few years, it will be immediately abandoned."

After all, a foreign language is a language, and language requires a language environment.

There is no environment, no books, and she is surrounded by people who speak dialects. Within a few years, she will forget all foreign languages.

She is also in this industry, so she is reluctant for Xue Ling to give up.

Xue Ling sighed and explained: "I can only read more books and listen to English channels more often. I hope I won't forget too much."

Xiao Jiaxue said boldly: "I have a lot of foreign language books over there. I will send you dozens of them later. But... if you just read and don't use your brain, your translation skills will not be good soon! Look at you, One book has been published. I talked to the editor before and said that this one is longer, but the translation level is obviously better than the previous one. The editor also said that the Chinese translation version is very popular now, and we should consider converting this book. One copy has also been published.”

Xue Ling still shook his head firmly and whispered: "I can't find the time."

"Okay!" Xiao Jiaxue said: "The translation of the entire book has come out. I will show it to the editor in two days. If he nods, then I will leave it to you to check and prepare for publication. At least I will get more publishing fees. , how great! If there is a second and third edition in the future, you will still be able to earn money in the future, why not!"

"That's no problem." Xue Ling said with a smile: "Seeing your name printed on the book is a very proud and happy thing!"

"Yes!" Xiao Jiaxue said: "You wait for my news. If it is finalized, this will be your second book. If you have some achievements in the translation industry in the future, there will be follow-up people who will ask you to translate."

"Not for the time being." Xue Ling explained: "There is too much work at hand and the children are still young. Let's take it easy for a while!"

Xiao Jiaxue thought for a while and asked, "Are you interested in translating jokes?"

"What?" Xue Ling asked, raising an eyebrow.

Xiao Jiaxue explained: "Recently, one or two joke books have come from the publishing house, and there is news from foreign language newspapers, saying that they hope to find someone to serialize joke translations, one short story a week, and the remuneration is calculated based on the number of words. The remuneration is quite considerable. .”

Xue Ling became interested and asked, "Is it a foreign language joke?"

"That's right!" Xiao Jiaxue said, "Didn't you like reading joke books the most before? I remember you devoured all the books in the library."

Xue Ling said quickly: "Explain to me quickly how to make money."

She explained: "The publishing house has a set of joke books. Two books came first, and then there are three books in another series, a total of five books. As you know, our publishing house and the foreign language newspaper are both from the same company. , connected together. The newspaper office has a weekly newspaper, one per week. Recently, the newspaper office has revised its edition and said that it hopes to make it more interesting and not to study a lot all day long. The editor-in-chief suggested that the set of joke books be serialized in it, It’s enough to carry it for three to five years.”

"One article a week?" Xue Ling asked.

"Yes! Just one article." Xiao Jiaxue said: "One article is very short, occasionally just two sentences of dialogue."
