EP 1284. Pepper: I want to go back to work

Children who study abroad will inevitably receive text messages from their parents every year during the holidays, asking if they will go home during the holidays.

Maybe there is not enough time, or there are things to do and cannot get away, or maybe you just want to take advantage of the holidays to take a vacation and stay in the dormitory for a good rest, and are too lazy to waste energy on the way to and from your hometown. Children who receive inquiries from their parents may not truly understand how they miss their parents, nor may they choose to go home for reunion.

So, will repeated failures make parents give up this habit that is basically unlikely to get feedback?

the answer is negative.

No matter how ignorant the children are, parents will never trust their love for their children.

The same is true for the relationship between the motherland and overseas Chinese.

Take Shi Xiaolei as an example.

In fact, every time when the Spring Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and other traditional festivals are approaching, he will receive greetings from China. Sometimes it’s one or two letters, and sometimes I get three or five letters. Basically every time I receive greetings, I receive varying numbers of invitations to return to my hometown.

Either it is sent directly from China, or it is conveyed by acquaintances at the consulate. Although the form is not fixed, sometimes it is more solemn, sometimes it is more casual, but the sincerity in every invitation , but there is no difference at all.

It doesn’t mean that if you don’t donate much this year, you won’t be taken seriously and won’t get an invitation. In fact, since Shi Xiaolei was invited back to China for the first time, he has not been left out. On average, he receives more than a dozen invitations from official agencies and departments at all levels every year. If you include those sent by non-governmental organizations or charities, there will be even more.

The reason why he didn't return to his country frequently was because of Shi Xiaolei's own choice.

It's not that he was too lazy to move, or that he didn't like the invitations sent by those prefecture-level units, so he didn't respond. In fact, every time he received an invitation, whether he replied or not, Shi Xiaolei would take the time to write a reply by hand and send it back to the other party.

Although his cultural level is not high and the words and sentences in the letter are very straightforward, when it comes to etiquette, Shi Xiaolei really doesn't make any omissions and is quite thoughtful.

The reason why Shi Xiaolei was so polite was because he had some scruples in his heart - after all, he was an extraordinary person with special abilities. Although he never took the initiative to cause trouble, he might still attract the covetousness of some people with evil intentions. If he returns to his country often and brings back the troubles surrounding him...

To say how high the consciousness is, it is actually impossible to say. Shi Xiaolei just didn't want to bring down his compatriots in the country and cause them unnecessary trouble because of himself.

Of course, Shi Xiaolei had always only thought about this idea in his heart and had not revealed it to his family or friends.

After all, he lives in the United States now. If this idea is exposed, even a best friend like Stark will inevitably protest and complain that he has double standards.

Normally I don't resist arguing with my friends, but it depends on the topic.

Not liking to talk too much about topics related to his position in daily interactions, Shi Xiaolei simply stopped the possibility of talking about such topics in one step.

That's a bit far gone.

All in all, Shi Xiaolei often receives invitations from China, but he doesn't always respond because of his scruples.

But this time, the reason why he decided to respond to the invitation and take advantage of the Spring Festival to return to China was because he had an additional key reason that he didn't usually have.

Do you still remember what happened just after the National Day?

At that time, Shi Xiaolei took Yixian and 2b back to China.

He just wanted to go back to China to buy some traditional musical instruments, and rent a house on the way to prepare some conveniences for the children at home who want to learn to play traditional musical instruments. But what he didn't expect was that when he was looking for a house, Department Z took the initiative and offered various resources for him to choose from in the name of a return gift.

Moreover, in order for him to accept this return gift without any scruples, the other party also listed a lot of data, proving in great detail how much contribution he had made to the country before.

The kindness was hard to refuse and Shi Xiaolei finally had to accept this gift.

And now, only two or three months have passed since I received the big gift...

The excitement about this matter has not subsided yet. Facing another invitation from China, Shi Xiaolei was really embarrassed to refuse it as usual.

In addition, after more than two months of overtime work, the decoration of the building that was previously taken over is almost complete.

From Shi Xiaolei's point of view, it was inevitable that he would feel a little itchy in his heart, and he couldn't help but want to go over and take a look.

In this way, Shi Xiaolei made the decision to go back to China to spend the Spring Festival this year.

As for the Stark family of three...

First, because his name was mentioned in the invitation letter sent to Shi Xiaolei, and he was also invited to visit the country as a guest.

Secondly, it was also because Stark himself wanted to take advantage of the holiday to have some fun, and by the way, let the newborn Morgan feel what the New Year atmosphere was like in his godfather's hometown.

"Okay, since you said so." Seeing Stark's firm attitude, Pepper could only smile helplessly.

One look at Pepper's expression and you knew what she was thinking about now.

After nudging little Morgan in his arms, which made the little girl giggle, Stark took a few steps to the sofa and sat down. He nudged Pepper gently with his shoulder: "Don't worry, we're setting off." In the past, I would have arranged everything in the company. Even if something happens temporarily and I need to deal with it, with Locke and Bayonetta here, I don’t have to worry about missing the opportunity. "

At worst, let Bayonetta open a portal, or let Shi Xiaolei come back with teleportation.

"That's right." Pepper then smiled: "With remote video conferencing, there shouldn't be any problems."

"That's right." He laughed, and Stark made a face at the little girl in his arms: "And, why don't we think about the good things? It's just a week or two. It's not a long time, it happens to be during this period The probability of internal problems... Haha, I don't think the possibility is high anyway, so we don't need to worry about it and cause trouble for ourselves. Anyway, just relax and enjoy this holiday..."

"After this year...Tony, do you still remember what you promised before?" Interrupting Stark's rambling, a bright light flashed in Pepper's eyes.

"What are you talking about? Uh... I don't have a good memory, so I'll give you a hint."

"After the New Year, I want to go back to work."

"Oh, so that's what you were talking about." Shaking his head with a grimace, Stark sighed: "Okay, I remembered it."
