I am doing well in the Siheyuan

"Oh, it's so lively!"

Seeing Ye Ming coming in, Han Chunming stood up quickly like a mouse seeing a cat and stood aside obediently.

Among the young people in the Beixinqiao area of ​​​​the old city, everyone behaved like this when facing Ye Ming.

"Speaking of the devil, here comes the devil. Hey, it's Maotai! Chunming, what are you standing there for? Make room for someone else's seat!"

Although he was not very happy about it, Han Chunming still obeyed Uncle Guan's words.

After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even though Ye Ming is in a difficult situation now, he is not someone he can afford to provoke easily.

"Why are you free to come here today?"

Hou Polan took over the conversation and filled Ye Ming's glass with wine as usual.

"The higher-ups saw how hard I've worked, so they gave me a few days off. It's a rare opportunity to have some free time, so of course I have to go have a drink with you guys."

In Ye Ming's view, suspension pending investigation is the same as taking a vacation.

In this regard, Uncle Guan and Marquis Polan could only shake their heads helplessly, wondering if he was pretending to be relaxed or if he was truly fearless.

"No kidding, are you really being targeted by someone? Will anything happen to you?"

Everyone knows that Ye Ming is now on the edge of a cliff, and a document may make him unable to recover for the rest of his life.

At this moment, Uncle Guan asked with a serious expression.

Ye Ming just smiled and didn't take it seriously at all.

"What are you saying? I haven't done anything wrong. Am I afraid that others will find fault with me?"

"It's not that simple. You really have done nothing wrong, but who can prove it? Those treasures you have protected over the years are all stolen goods in the eyes of outsiders; and those guys you dealt with and sent to labor camps have become victims in the blink of an eye.

Let’s not talk about the distant past, just take Liu Sihai for example, there are still people who are speaking up for him!”

Hou Polan was very emotional and was venting his complaints as if he had eaten gunpowder.

They all knew what Ye Ming had done, but Han Chunming next to him was completely confused.

"Why bother about their opinions? I act in a high-profile manner, so it's normal for people to scold me. If I have to care about every word, how can I live? Drink, drink."

Ye Ming is open-minded about these things.

It is quite difficult to clarify oneself.

Even if the authorities intervene, it is difficult to change the public's preconceived ideas, and their attitude towards Ye Ming remains ambiguous.

"Why do I feel more and more confused the more I listen to what you say? Lord Pauper, you said that the treasures he protected were all stolen goods in the eyes of others. What do you mean?"

Han Chunming mustered up the courage to ask.

"Hey, you still have a lot to learn. You don't know right from wrong and you always act so self-righteous."

Hou Polan's words were full of earnestness, and these words were not only directed at Han Chunming, but more of an expression of his emotion about the misunderstanding of Ye Ming by most people today.

If it weren't for Uncle Guan's unique vision, Hou Polan would probably have misunderstood Ye Ming just like Han Chunming.

"What do you mean by that?"

Han Chunming frowned and asked. He knew what kind of people Uncle Guan and Hou Polan were. There was no doubt that they hated evil and hated evil.

However, how could these two people be drinking and chatting happily with Ye Ming?

"People should have their own opinions and not just follow the crowd."

Just as Uncle Guan wanted to continue explaining, Ye Ming interrupted him with a smile.

"It's pointless to dwell on this. Uncle Guan, I seemed to hear you mention the food factory when I first came in?"

"Chunming just came back from the countryside. I used my connections to find him a job at the Yili Food Factory."

Just like a few years ago, factory jobs are still considered as stable jobs, especially food factories, which are places where countless people are scrambling to get in.

Not only is the salary good, but more importantly, you can fill your stomach there.

Ye Ming knew very well that the tide of the times was changing and the wind direction had shifted.

“Times are changing. I suggest you stop being obsessed with factory jobs.”

"Not going to the factory? What else can I do?" Han Chunming was confused.

From a young age, whether it was the teachings of his elders or the general concept of the outside world, he was instilled with a concept: only by working in a factory can he be considered promising! Other options are considered to be not doing a serious job.

Ye Ming was aware of Han Chunming's family situation.

If it weren't for the disputes in the past, the two families wouldn't have reached the point where they have no contact with each other now.

Putting himself in Chunming's mother's shoes, Ye Ming understood that she would also choose to keep her distance from him.

After all, there is no blood relationship between us, nor is there a friendship like that between Uncle Guan and Marquis Polan. Why should I trust you unconditionally?

Uncle Guan knew that Ye Ming would not speak out of thin air, and he must have his own reasons for saying so.

"Do you have any inside information?"

“Because the college entrance examination will be resumed soon.”

"Resume the college entrance examination?" Upon hearing the news, everyone was confused and puzzled.

Han Chunming disagrees with this.

He had no great interest in academics, except for a passing knowledge of history.

Even if the college entrance examination is really restored, even if you are lucky enough to go to college, the job you find after graduation, in terms of benefits or social status, may not be better than that of a factory worker.

In the past, his idea might not have been a problem, but the situation is different now.

In order to accelerate the pace of national construction, high-end talents will become an important pillar of the country's rapid development for a long time to come.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that going to college is the only way out, but at least it is much better than working in a factory.

Most of the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination will be assigned to various government agencies to be trained as reserve cadres.

Su Meng and Cheng Jianjun are living examples. Their starting point is undoubtedly much higher than that of their peers.

If Han Chunming did not have the aura of the protagonist, he might never be able to reach the heights reached by these two people in his entire life.

"Listen to Ye Ming and go take the college entrance examination." Although he didn't quite understand, Uncle Guan knew Ye Ming's background and foresight very well, so there must be a reason for what he said.

Han Chunming looked embarrassed and said, "Master, I will listen to you on other matters, but I really can't do this job.

Let’s not talk about whether the college entrance examination can really be restored. Even if it is restored, graduating from university is not necessarily better than working in a factory.”

Ye Ming only made suggestions. The final decision is still in Han Chunming's hands. It is up to him to listen or not.

"Short-sighted!" Uncle Guan cursed with a dark face and ignored him.

Han Chunming had no choice but to stand aside quietly.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this.

You can't go to university just because you want to. Uncle Guan, the lazy cat hasn't been back for a long time. When will this little girl be able to come back?"

"It will probably take another two years. A letter from abroad said that Little Lazy Cat is studying at university, and seems to be majoring in management. I don't quite understand. My unfilial son even said that he would wait until Little Lazy Cat graduates before letting her return home."
