When passing through Chinatown, Zhou Yi was overjoyed.
In a foreign country, seeing many compatriots with yellow skin and black eyes, the sense of solidity is indescribable.
"There are so many Chinese here!"
"Yes, but you don't go out at night in New York, and don't go to secluded places during the day. I stuffed a safety manual in your bag. It was sent to us when we went abroad in February. It should be useful to you."
Zhou Yi's expression was not right, Xia Xiaolan added:
"Because I am very busy as an intern at the gmp office, I can only tell you what to pay attention to. You usually live in the school dormitory, and there are not many opportunities for us to meet. When I finish my internship at gmp this month and return to Isa It¡¯s even more difficult to meet up after the card, because it takes five or six hours to get to Ithaca from New York by bus.¡±
These words were even more unexpected to Zhou Yi.
She thought that Xia Xiaolan would take her all the way when she arrived in the United States¡ªbut according to Xia Xiaolan, she wanted to leave her in New York to learn languages? !
Zhou Yi resisted this arrangement very much, but kept silent, refusing to show timidity in front of Xia Xiaolan.
Do you want her to beg Xia Xiaolan not to leave?
It's too embarrassing, she won't say it even if she is killed!
Xia Xiaolan sent Zhou Yi to the entrance examination, where listening, grammar, speaking and writing were all tested.
Unsurprisingly, Zhou Yi's test results were horrible. If there were grades below 101, the teacher would assign her to a lower class. Difficult, it is basically a blank sheet of paper waiting for the language school teacher to teach from scratch.
So Zhou Wenbang refused to let her be sent abroad by the public. It was really too low level, and it was too heartless to spend the country's money!
Xia Xiaolan actually didn't mean to be sarcastic, but Zhou Yi was too embarrassed to show her the test voucher.
Xia Xiaolan coughed twice:
"Level 101 is fine, lay a solid foundation from scratch, and apply for a better school in the future."
Zhou Yi herself has no confidence at all.
She now has no hope of returning to China in a year and a half that Zhou Wenbang said.
Can you finish this ghost language school in one year?
Can I return to China in two and a half years?
Everything is unknown!
"I see, are you still going to work today?"
Xia Xiaolan nodded, "I asked the office for half a day off. If you still need help, I will ask for an extra half day."
Zhou Yi didn't have a clue in her heart, Xia Xiaolan wanted to leave her in this strange place, what should she do?
But he pretended to be sensible, "No need, you are also an intern in another company, and you can't make the decision. If you don't go to work, others will definitely have opinions. Xiaolan, thank you, you picked me up yesterday, and sent me to the exam today, you Hurry up and go back¡ª"
Zhou Yi pretended to be sensible, but Xia Xiaolan thought she was really sensible:
"I'll just tell my uncle, sister Zhou Yi has a strong learning ability, and she has seen the world since she was a child, so there is nothing to be afraid of going out of the country. Then I will go to work. If you feel uncomfortable, please call me. Take a look at the safety manual I stuffed in your bag!"
Call when you feel uncomfortable.
Just stay by yourself if you don't feel uncomfortable, does Xia Xiaolan mean that?
Zhou Yi felt a dull pain from the incision in her lower abdomen. When Xia Xiaolan was around, she wanted to save face, but she didn't know what to do when she really left.
Parents as cruel as her parents are rare. They sent her abroad just one month and a few days after the caesarean section. Xia Xiaolan, who is unfamiliar with her place of life and only knows her cousin in New York Xia Xiaolan looks so busy!
Zhou Yi muttered, "Are you so busy, aren't you just an intern?"
After thinking about it, interns are also at the apprentice level, so they must obediently listen to other people's arrangements.
Xia Xiaolan was so bad in China, she didn't expect to start from scratch in the United States, Zhou Yi looked around in a daze, not knowing when she would be able to reach level 109 or above.
Wait, it's almost time for lunch. Just now, the language school teacher introduced the cafeteria, and Xia Xiaolan pointed her in the direction. Which way are you going?
Zhou Yi walked around, and in the end she was so hungry that she couldn't take it anymore, so she could only bite the bullet and ask others how to get to the cafeteria.
She didn't know how to say this sentence, she only remembered one word "food", and she only asked where it was by gesturing.
There were not many people in the cafeteria, and Zhou Yi didn't know how to order.
Yes, she also has a book of English daily sentences!
Stumbling and reading according to the book, she finally got food and drinks for herself, Zhou Yi was already hot and sweating profusely.
Xia Xiaolan called Zhou Wenbang only after returning to the apartment.
Of course she lied to Zhou Yi. GMP is busy, but it is not impossible to take a day off.
She said that on purpose, because she didn't want to leave Zhou Yi as a mother. Zhou Wenbang and Jiang Hong repeatedly emphasized that if Zhou Yi was to be independent, Xia Xiaolan would naturally follow suit.
The microwave heated up something for lunch, and Xia Xiaolan called Zhou Wenbang late in the afternoon. It was still morning in China at this time, and Zhou Wenbang probably hadn't gone to work yet.
Zhou Wenbang and Jiang Hong had been waiting for Xia Xiaolan's call for a long time.
The phone rang, and Zhou Wenbang connected it immediately:
"Hello, is this Xiaolan?"
"Hey, uncle, it's me! I've already sent Sister Zhou Yi to a language school"
Xia Xiaolan said, "It shouldn't matter if she is left alone at school. School is safer. I also talked to the teacher at the language school. If she doesn't attend class on time, she will notify me. As long as she can go to class, she is fine. Seriously."
Xia Xiaolan helped find this language school, and for this reason, she asked word of mouth among international students in New York.
In the past, some Huaguo students who studied abroad at their own expense successfully applied to universities after graduating from the language school. The language school is still very good.
Zhou Wenbang was very emotional: "Your aunt and I don't know how to thank you, don't delay your own affairs for Zhou Yi, let her suffer more, and then realize that life is not as simple as she thought!"
Zhou Wenbang didn't even bother to ask Zhou Yi what level he got in the entrance test.
With Zhou Yi's poor level, what level can he be assigned?
Definitely the worst level.
In fact, Zhou¡¯s family¡¯s conditions allowed, and according to the conventional method, Zhou Yi should be found in China with a 1-on-1 foreign language teacher to teach for a few months first, and then come to the United States to attend a language school with a certain foundation. Then it will be like what Zhou Wenbang said, you will be able to apply for university in the last two or three months But the longer Zhou Yi stays, the more irritable Zhou Wenbang and Jiang Hong are, and they want to send her abroad as soon as possible to separate from Yuan Han .
The tuition fees of language schools are not so expensive compared with American universities.
When Zhou Yi went abroad, Zhou Wenbang and Jiang Hong expected to spend about US$10,000 on her.
This already includes the tuition fees of the language school and the university in the future. Zhou Wenbang and Jiang Hong will not be able to spend any more money. If they ask for money from other members of the Zhou family, they can make up 20,000 US dollars. Zhou Wenbang is determined not to, It is to make Zhou Yi suffer.
As for the remaining gap, how will Zhou Yi solve it?
Others can go to a Chinese restaurant to wash dishes, so can Zhou Yi!
Zhou Yi didn't know yet, after using up the $1,000 cash she carried with her, she would have to earn living expenses by herself.
For other self-financed students studying abroad, this kind of thing is common, but for Miss Zhou I guess she will have to shed a few layers of skin. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
