When Xu Zhian came back from get off work, he was not as excited as expected when he heard this. He glanced around at the three people, and finally laid his eyes on Xu Cheng, and asked uneasily:
"Dad, do you really think I can do it? I'm afraid that I can't do it well. If I don't do it well, I will embarrass my sister and brother-in-law. Then you will definitely scold me again."
Xu Zhiyi felt a pang in her heart. Like her, she was afraid of being scolded since she was a child. She would always doubt before doing anything.
Fortunately, she now has Octavia's encouragement and dares to try many things.
Xu Cheng frowned, "You haven't done it yet, why can't you do it? Dad thinks you can do it. I asked your leaders about your performance in the unit. They all said that you have a flexible mind, quick hands and feet, and you are not afraid of hardship. Among young people, It’s rare. With these advantages, what can’t you do?”
Xu Zhian tilted his chin slightly, snorted with a little pride, "Huh, Dad, haven't you always called me and my sister stupid? Why do you believe others when they say I have a smart mind?"
Xu Cheng didn't expect that even if he praised him, he would be criticized. He opened his mouth slightly and was speechless for a moment.
Li Zijuan and Xu Zhiyi looked at each other, knowing each other tacitly, holding back their laughter as they watched the excitement between the father and son.
Xu Zhian became more energetic and continued to accuse:
"I have been a father and son with you for twenty-three years, and I have learned a bloody lesson. In front of you, do less and make less mistakes, and do not do better. Forget it, I still keep doing my job well. I am such an adult. After all, I am the team leader of four people in the funeral home, and I don’t want to be scolded by me again, which is embarrassing.”
Xu Zhiyi knew him well and had long seen that he was teasing Xu Cheng and wanted to take the opportunity to save some face after being scolded for so many years.
Xu Cheng clicked his tongue and said seriously:
"Young man, why don't you have any enterprising spirit? Don't think that with your brother-in-law here, opportunities will always be left to you. It's not such a good thing.
Besides, how can I accuse you of being stupid in everything? Except for studying, you can do anything good. I think you can do this job well. Don't give me a job here, just be happy. Can you do it? If he didn't do it, he pushed it away. "
Xu Cheng thought about it. If Xu Zhian was unwilling to do this, he would not let Su Jianguo and Xu Wei intervene.
He understands his son's character and can trust him. It's hard to tell if no one is keeping an eye on those two people.
Xu Zhian gave up when he saw the opportunity, and laughed playfully, "Do it, of course I will do it. My dad has praised me so much. If I don't do it, wouldn't it mean that I don't know how to appreciate it? But..."
Having said this, he looked solemn and expressed his thoughts.
Su Jianguo and Xu Wei had been working in the construction industry for many years and knew everything about them. He had no objection to letting them take charge.
Compared to him, they need this opportunity more, and being able to take the opportunity to help them is the best of both worlds.
But he was young after all, and those two were his elders. It would take some trouble to ask them to obey him.
Of course, it is both a difficulty and a challenge. If he can win both of them, who else will be unable to win in the future?
Now, he needs some help.
"Dad, you have to be of the same mind as me. No matter what I do right or wrong in the future, you have to support me unconditionally. You can't scold me in front of my second uncle, brother-in-law, and other elders. If they don't listen to me, You have to support me and suppress their arrogance."
Xu Zhiyi and Li Zijuan nodded repeatedly.
Xu Cheng said without hesitation:
"You are Dad's biological son. Dad must be of the same mind as you. You need to establish prestige in front of them. How can you establish it if they scold you?
Don't worry, dad can figure this out.
If they dare to act recklessly, tell dad and he will take care of them.
However, if you really do something wrong, behind closed doors, your dad will still criticize you when he should. "
Xu Zhian smiled and said:
"No problem! It's not like I haven't been scolded before. I've already developed an indestructible body when it comes to resisting scolding. Dad, just go ahead and scold me and let the storm come more violently."
"Hahaha, you kid!"
Everyone was very amused by him.
Later, Xu Zhian said:
"Dad, I don't want to just let my second uncle and my brother-in-law guide me. I also need a professional in this field to guide me. This way I can learn comprehensively and be able to check and balance my second uncle and brother-in-law to prevent them from playing tricks on me." , I still don’t know like a blind man.”
When Xu Zhiyi heard this, he was surprised and said:
"Xiao An, it's okay. This method is effective and thoughtful. I'm most afraid that they will fool you because you don't know. With a third knowledgeable person here, no one can try to deceive anyone. I'll tell your brother-in-law about this. No, I’ll tell my mother-in-law directly, it should be fine.”
She actually wanted to take the opportunity to get in touch with Zhou Landuo to enhance mutual understanding.
After all, this contact is inevitable, and we have to move forward.
The family of four discussed some details and finally settled on the matter.
After saying this, Xu Cheng reminded Xu Zhiyi that the transfer of rural teachers in the city would begin in late July, and asked her to prepare early.
Transfers within the establishment are organized and decided by the Municipal Education Bureau. Every year, transfer quotas are determined through interviews, that is, lectures, and based on performance.
Xu Zhiyi just completed the "Master's Program" this year and obtained a master's degree in education. According to regulations, he cannot be directly transferred to an urban school.
However, Xu Cheng had already planned for her.
This year Xu Zhiyi will first be transferred to a suburban middle school not far from the city to teach. After she gives birth to her child and completes her maternity leave, just in time for next year's transfer, she can go directly to an urban school.
According to regulations, she now has a master's degree and can teach in urban high schools.
But Xu Cheng didn't want her to enter high school.
High school teachers work so hard that they can't take care of their families and children.
Even if she teaches art, it is much easier than being a cultural teacher. She still has the tasks and pressure of the college entrance examination, as well as a bunch of non-teaching tasks in high school, which are non-stop.
What he thought was that a girl could have a stable job and be able to support herself. There was no need to work so hard.
It's better to live a more relaxed life.
Look at the female teachers at Aicheng Middle School. When they first arrived, their faces were as tender as flowers. After working for a few years, they all turned into yellow-faced women.
It’s strange that high school teachers don’t age quickly because they worry so much.
Fortunately, Xu Zhiyi was obedient and didn't twist him.
Nowadays, the selection of employees is very transparent. The judges are not locals. They are people from other cities randomly selected from the talent pool and selected strictly according to the regulations.
According to Xu Zhiyi himself, there is no problem in entering that middle school in the suburbs this year.
She has been teaching for three years, and Xu Cheng has personally taught her classes. Her teaching level is very high, which is not comparable to that of ordinary teachers.
Besides, since she now has a master's degree, the advantage of entering high school is not obvious. If she enters junior high school, she will still have an advantage.
After being reminded by Xu Cheng, Xu Zhiyi did not dare to take it lightly. He found the old textbooks and teachers' books, carried them back to the Ming family, and decided to start preparations early.
When she returned to the Ming family, the four elders happened to be there, so she directly told Zhou Lan the decision that the family had discussed.
Zhou Lan agreed without saying a word.
The elders were curious when they saw her holding the book in her hand and asked her what she was doing.
Xu Zhiyi said with a smile: "I will participate in the teacher selection organized by the Education Bureau at the end of July and strive to be transferred to Pingyue Middle School in the suburbs."
Unexpectedly, just this sentence completely caused the four people to explode.
