Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 574: Old friend

Views:

Li Wei had been in the capital for nearly twenty days and had gone through several interviews. Finally, the radio station offered Li Wei an olive branch, but the column assigned to him was a late-night column. The salary during the probation period is less than a quarter of what it was before.

Faced with the invitation from the radio station, Li Wei did not give an answer immediately, but just said that he would think about it before making a decision.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the time she and Jian Bo had agreed to meet. The restaurant where they agreed to meet was booked by Jianbo. Instead of asking Qiu Kai to take him there, he chose to take a taxi.

But when she arrived, Jian Bo was nowhere to be seen. Li Wei didn't pursue Jian Bo's lateness, and waited for about twenty minutes before seeing Jian Bo arrive.

Li Jianbo wore a dark blue suit and a silver-gray twill tie today.

When Li Wei saw his attire, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Did the second brother attend any activities today? Why are you dressed like this?"

“I attended an academic conference and I came right over.”

"No wonder that's the case."

Jian Bo asked his sister if she had ordered anything. Li Wei shook her head, and she waved to the waiter to ask for her order.

Jianbo has eaten at this restaurant several times before. He thinks their food tastes good, the prices are fair, and the environment is naturally good, so he has been thinking about inviting his sister to come and try it.

Jianbo ordered their signature dish, and when it was time to serve it, the brother and sister started chatting.

Jianbo became concerned about Li Wei's life here.

"Are you used to living here? If not, why not move to my place?"

Facing the second brother's warm invitation, Li Wei waved his hand and said, "Why bother bothering the second brother again? I'm used to it here. Besides, I have Sister-in-law He to help me with everything."

"Zhao Qian is still busy, right? He hasn't come back to see you?"

"Yeah, the filming isn't over yet."

Is this marriage a wrong choice? There seems to be no change in my sister before and after marriage. That sister Zhao Qian did not take care of.

"By the way, I heard you were looking for a job a while ago, so how's the job going?"

"It's not that good. I went to several job fairs in succession and received interviews from several companies one after another. It's just that not a few of them matched each other. However, there is a radio station that wants me to attend a program. I'm still hesitant. Well, I didn’t give them a clear answer.”

"A radio station?"

Li Wei nodded.

"Tell me what the specific situation is, and I'll help you analyze it to see if it's worth going."

The second brother was always reliable at critical moments. Li Wei was hesitant and told him all his doubts.

After listening to his sister's story, Li Jianbo frowned and said decisively: "What's the point of such a job? Your qualifications are enough. This kind of job is not worth your struggle. I think it's better to forget it."

The salary is low, the work schedule is irregular, and it's late at night. It's not the best choice for a woman.

"Weiwei, you are past the age where you have to rush to prove yourself. As the saying goes, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. If you want to change jobs, you must choose a better place. I advise you to give up."

Facing her second brother's suggestion, Li Wei also listened. She said, "Well, I won't go. But at my age, and being married but not pregnant, it seems really difficult to find a job."

Speaking later, Li Wei was filled with helplessness. Jian Bo took the opportunity to say: "Then how about you solve the fertility issues first. Besides, you are not young and have missed the best childbearing age. It will be very slow to recover in a few years." many."

Li Jianbo advised Li Wei from the perspective of eugenics and education.

Li Wei smiled bitterly and said: "Second brother, I can't give birth to a child by myself. Besides, the current situation is not suitable for raising children."

Of course Jian Bo understood his sister's difficulties. He smiled and said: "Things are not as bad as you feared. Just take it one step at a time. If you have any difficulties, just ask and I will help you."

Li Wei understood that there were some things that even her second brother couldn't help her with.

When the ordered dishes were served, Li Jianbo tried his best to introduce various dishes to his sister.

Li Wei is still very interested in eating and drinking. The brother and sister talked while eating, and Li Wei put aside those unpleasant things for the time being.

The meal took a little longer. When Li Jianbo saw that his sister had finished eating, he went to the front desk to pay. Li Wei took the opportunity to go to the bathroom.

After she came out, she saw a well-dressed lady holding on to the sink and vomiting. The lady was alone and unaccompanied.

She had been in this situation before, so she couldn't help feeling a little pity and stepped forward to hand a stack of tissues to the lady.

"Thank you!" The lady took the tissue and thanked Li Wei. Before she could finish her words, she vomited.

Li Wei hesitated for two seconds, then went over and patted the lady's back gently.

After a while, she finally calmed down. The lady straightened up and glanced in the mirror. She was dumbfounded when she saw the person behind her who was helping her. This face looked a bit familiar.

The lady turned around and stopped Li Wei who was about to leave.

"please wait!"

When Li Wei heard this, he turned around and said, "You still need me..." Before he could say the word help, Li Wei was already petrified there.

The person standing in front of her was no one else, but an old friend she hadn't seen for many years.

"Tang...Tang Shiyun...is it you?"

Tang Shiyun walked over and gave Li Wei a big hug. Li Wei seemed very excited. He really didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here.

"Li Wei, when did you come to the capital? How come I didn't know?"

Li smiled and said, "It's been a while."

At this time, the phone rang. Seeing that it was her second brother urging her, Li Wei asked Tang Shiyun, "Do you want to go over to socialize?"

Tang Shiyun waved his hand and said, "I'll go with you. We just have a reason to get away. Please wait for me for a while."

Li Wei and Tang Shiyun left the bathroom together, and she waited at the door for Tang Shiyun to come out.

"Second brother, I met a good friend today who I haven't seen for many years. You will meet him soon too."

"Oh? You can meet acquaintances here, what a fate."

"Who says it's not?" Li Wei looked really happy with a smile on her face.

A few minutes later, Tang Shiyun came out as expected. Li Wei generously introduced the two of them.

Li Jianbo's impression of Tang Shiyun still rested on the time when he competed with his sister many years ago. He said gently: "It's because of Anchor Tang that Weiwei won second place."

Tang Shiyun said with some embarrassment: "That happened many years ago. I didn't expect that Mr. Li would still be worried about it."

Li Wei asked Tang Shiyun: "Did you drive here?"

"No, I came by taxi."

Li Wei said: "Then let's go together. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we have to have a good chat."
