Reborn 1960之巧女当家

Chapter 247
The date agreed with Yan Yu will arrive soon.

In fact, Xia Nuan was quite uncertain, after all, she had no experience in doing "psychological counseling" for others.

And whether Yan Yu would resist her doing this, I don't know yet, so I can only start talking according to the reason I said when I called.

Yan Yu didn't take her daughter home from school today, because she wanted to have dinner with Xia Nuan, so she put her daughter at her grandparents' house, that is, Yan Yu's parents' house.

Yan Yu's parents didn't know that their husband and wife were getting divorced recently.

Fortunately, although Yan Yu's daughter was rebellious in adolescence, she still has a very good relationship with her grandparents.

After hastily instructing her parents, Yan Yu went to the appointment.

Xia Nuan had already been waiting in the restaurant that had been negotiated.Before going out today, Xia Nuan had agreed with Chu Tianling that she would have dinner with Yan Yu after get off work tonight, and she might come back later.

Chu Tianling also knows a thing or two about Yan Yu's matter, after all, he is also Xia Nuan's nobleman and has helped Xia Nuan a lot.

Of course, Chu Tianling supported Xia Nuan in doing so, and told her to be careful when she came back at night.

Xia Nuan and Yan Yuyue's small restaurant is not too far from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Sometimes there are group activities in their department, and everyone eats here when they have no time to eat.

The boss of this restaurant cooks meals that suit everyone's taste, and it is economical. The most important thing is that the store is decorated cleanly. Everyone feels at ease when they eat, so they often come to take care of business.

"Are you here so fast?" Yan Yu carried her handbag and sat on the seat opposite Xia Nuan without stopping.

Xia Nuan was still thinking about whether to order the food first, and Yan Yu came.

"I didn't come too early, that is, when I got off work." Xia Nuan replied after she realized it.

"I'm going to pick up my daughter from school, and I'll put her at my grandparents' house for dinner. Tomorrow is the weekend, so let her do her homework first."

It seems that when Yan Yu picked up the child, she had already made arrangements for her follow-up.

Xia Nuan sweated again, no one can bear such a mother.

After clearing her throat, Xia Nuan still dared to speak.

"Team Leader Yan, I haven't ordered food yet, do you think there is anything you want to eat?"

With that said, he handed the menu to Yan Yu.

"If we eat together, it won't be so empty, just make two side dishes and fry them."

With a wave of his hand, Yan Yu ordered a mapo tofu, a stir-fried seasonal vegetable, and finally added a braised pork rib.

Xia Nuan talked about it, and added another winter melon ball soup for her.

"You young people, it's a waste. If you say you can go to my house to eat, my craftsmanship is no worse than those outside." Yan Yu pretended to blame Xia Nuan.

Xia Nuan knew that Yan Yu wasn't really angry, so she let it go.

"I know you are good at crafting. Isn't it just that you come here occasionally to have a tooth-beating festival? You usually work so hard, and today we have an appointment outside, so we can talk easily."

Nothing else, Xia Nuan can still coax people.

Sure enough, after Xia Nuan finished speaking like this, Yan Yu's expression softened a lot.

It is indeed true that work is usually very busy, and every day after get off work, Yan Yu has to pick up her daughter from school and then do grocery shopping.

After picking up my daughter, I have to start washing vegetables and cooking. In short, there are a lot of things to do.

Yan Yu also has to do a lot of things that housewives have to do.

Yan Yu still has to do a lot of things that housewives don't do.

At work, Yan Yu is the leader. Not only should he set an example to do better, but he also has to assign work to the people under him and supervise them to do better.

In the family, Yan Yu is a wife and a mother. She has to help her daughter with homework, supervise her studies, and also wash and cook for her husband. It is indeed a lot of effort.

Thanks to Xia Nuan today, Yan Yu also had a reason to take a break.

While waiting for the food to be served, Xia Nuan and Yan Yu started chatting casually.

"You can take the initiative to talk to me about your future work direction. I still support you very much."

Yan Yu took a sip of the scented tea the boss poured for them, and spoke leisurely.

In fact, to be honest, apart from having more gray hair and looking haggard, Xia Nuan really can't imagine that there are so many "twists and turns" in Yan Yu's life now.

"What you're saying is that I'm now on the right track in my job, and my child is getting older. I'm no longer a child who couldn't live without people."

Putting aside the factor of being a little afraid of Yan Yu, Xia Nuan actually wanted to chat with Yan Yu.

This feeling is like, facing your relatives and teachers, you can open your heart and talk about your troubles without feeling any burden.

Although Xia Nuan's daily work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not as important and busy as Yan Yu's, the division of labor is different, and the daily work is also numerous and complicated.

Every day when I come home from work, I have to pick up the children, cook, and do housework.

Although she and Chu Tianling have a division of labor, there is nothing to worry about living at home.

It's finally the weekend, and everyone wants to have a good rest. Xia Nuan really has very little time to chat with friends.

"When I first met you in your school, what I liked most about you was your hard work, your hard work, and your humility."

Yan Yu continued to talk, pointing out the advantages of Xia Nuan without hesitation, and Xia Nuan was a little embarrassed to praise her.

But Yan Yu continued talking.

"But Xia Nuan, you know, to become a successful diplomat like you think, these things alone are not enough."

"You have to be smart. Smartness is the talent you need to be a diplomat in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for several years, ten years, or even decades."

It was the first time for Xia Nuan to hear the importance of being "smart" so clearly.

"This kind of cleverness is what we call cleverness, cleverness, and sometimes even the wisdom of foolishness."

"But it's definitely not what we call being clever and opportunistic." After hearing this, Xia Nuan gradually understood.

Working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is no different than working in a workshop or factory building. First of all, those who can work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are people with high education, at least people who are very talented in language.

In terms of these, it's not as simple as Xia Nuanguang can deny other people's achievements by relying on the system.

Secondly, those who set up major events in ancient times have a keenness and a clear understanding of the current situation that are different from ordinary people.

As the saying goes, "Time makes heroes". In this era of rapid development, who can be sure which node is not the moment to change destiny?
Only those who have these big-picture concepts, and only those who always have the country in mind, can "dance with the sleeves" in the diplomatic arena, demonstrate the highest strength of the country to the greatest extent, and maximize the benefits.This is what Yan Yu said was smart.

This gradually has the taste of "self-cultivation, family governance, country and world peace", but it has not yet reached the point where it needs to be so magnificent.

The food was gradually served, and Xia Nuan listened carefully to what Yan Yu said, and the experience she had summed up in the workplace over the years.

Yan Yu's daughter is still young, and because of her personality, she rarely makes friends at work.

So although Xia Nuan was regarded as his own student, the two of them were more like friends who had forgotten each other.

I can't talk about this with my daughter now, I can only talk to Xia Nuan.

As the two of them talked, they gradually became more active in their conversation.

Yan Yu added a bowl of winter melon soup to Xia Nuan, and said with emotion.

"You don't know, I don't have time to study every day now, what a motivated person I was before I got married."

Xia Nuan took the soup bowl and nodded frantically in approval.

"Yes, yes, I feel the same way!"

"Before I gave birth to buns, my daily life consisted of eating and studying. Through my own efforts, I walked out of our village and entered university."

"Since you have a child, you have finished his daily life, and after he goes to bed, you should go to bed too."

"I used to read half a foreign language original book every day, and I still had time to find a few translations for myself to practice. Now it's good, I have to start cooking when I get home from work."

Others don't know about the fact that I have less time to study, but she and her system are the most clear.

The most straightforward reaction is that her system has not been upgraded for a long time.

Even Xia Nuan now doubts whether the learning system is still there.

It's not that Yan Yu and Xia Nuan love to study. It's mainly because of their jobs, occupations, and majors of study. It's best for them to maintain the habit of lifelong learning.

It's like financial managers need to watch the financial trend every day.

If diplomats stop learning, they may not be able to keep up with the times and will be easily eliminated.

Yan Yu patted Xia Nuan on the shoulder, she had figured this out long before she gave birth to a child.

"Actually, you don't need to be too anxious. After all, getting married, having children, and starting a family are the necessary journeys in everyone's life."

"It may just be that our female compatriots are indeed a little more hindered than male compatriots."

Yan Yu looked very open.

Xia Nuan ate a mouthful of pork ribs and seemed to be listening attentively, but in fact, all she thought in her heart was "Is it coming, is it coming?"

Sure enough, I heard Yan Yu say naturally, "Like me, my daughter is rebellious in adolescence, and I think I'm hurting her by caring about her. Now, my nose is not my nose, and my face is not my face."

"As for my husband, bullshit is useless. It's okay to never help with family affairs before, and I don't say anything. Now I just don't go home."

Xia Nuan didn't dare to say anything directly, so she smoothed things over, "Maybe my brother-in-law just wants to hide, men sometimes do this."

"What is he hiding from? Don't think I don't know. There's some 'confidante' out there who hates me. I wish I didn't see him!"

While talking, Yan Yu became angry, and Xia Nuan hurriedly comforted her.

"Group leader Yan, although I haven't met my brother-in-law, the person who can marry you must not be a bad person."

"You and your brother-in-law have been married for so many years, you must know better than me what your brother-in-law is like."

"Team Leader Yan, I know you must have worked hard recently, but for my brother-in-law, I think the most important thing is communication."

What Xia Nuan said was appropriate and meticulous, not only inadvertently praised Yan Yu's vision back then, but also persuaded Yan Yu not to be "obsessed with the authorities".

What a smart woman Yan Yu is, how could she not know what Xia Nuan said.

It's just because this is her own husband, she subconsciously chose to believe in the result that can protect herself the most.

She didn't think about the problems she and her husband had encountered in their common life over the years.

That's why today's situation has been brought about. One has no heart to speak, and the other has no patience to listen at all.

Marriage should be something that two people work hard together.
