202 1.7. 17 Scene 23, Zhu Naichen tells her story.
The following contents are arranged according to JuneChen's sharing in the Canadian Women Writers Association.
Through the introduction of friends in Suzhou, I got to know Lang Gege, and learned about her wonderful and tortuous life track from "Lang Gege sells a house". There are great differences in our personalities between the north and the south, but it doesn't affect our communication at all! Thank her for introducing me to the Women Writers Association, an elite female team! But what makes me feel deeply guilty and uneasy is that I am still far from the title of female writer. Compared with the real writers and sisters who have created hundreds of thousands of words in our group, I really feel ashamed! Anyway, I would like to be a small sapling and thrive in the garden of the Women Writers Association! I used to use Chinese to enter the workplace of foreign companies, but now I use English writing style to regain literary writing! Thanks to the sisters of the Women Writers Association for giving me the opportunity to tell my story.
1 Ciyan is from Jiangnan, and the town is full of atmosphere.
I compare life to a trip! Along the way, I met not only the scenery along the way, but also some people and things, so I had one story after another. After a long journey, some stories gradually blurred, and some only close-ups will be reflected in my mind at a specific time.
The story I want to tell takes place in a small town called Jiangnan Paradise, a typical Suzhou family with wells, mulberry trees and impatiens. This is the place where I was born. Ciyan, this is the name given by my mother. It sounds good, but there are too many strokes. It is not easy to write beautifully. My parents also gave me a kind heart. In my memory, my father is a bookworm who only reads sage books and has no housework ability at all, so my mother has a hard time, and she has to do housework besides work. In my memory, I haven't been to kindergarten for several days. Whenever my mother wants to send me there, I will hug my grandmother's thigh. My mother had to rush to work, so I stayed at home with my grandmother with asthma, so I inherited her habit of listening to pingtan, Shaoxing opera, drinking tea and tasting almond cakes.
When I was a child, I looked forward to summer, the fruitful mulberries on the trees and the blooming impatiens in the corner! In that era when things were scarce and everything depended on tickets, mulberry was a delicious fruit. I remember that once my teeth turned purple, so that mulberry is the most romantic color I can think of so far. The childhood in my memory is a quiet but fun quadrangle, and the soft-spoken Suzhou pingtan sound of Wu Nong! Gradually, I reached my grandmother's waist, and it was time to go out to primary school. But I'm afraid of the world outside the patio. My mother asked my father to cancel the registered school, so I studied one year later than normal children.
Fly to Brazil and dream back to youth.
Continuing my story, the camera is pulled to 2007, and I experienced the longest and farthest flight in my life. Telling the story of the journey, the mood is still a bit one after another. I try to describe it here, just for the sake of Do not forget your initiative mind, and never forget my previous career! The plane will take off soon, because it will take a long 27 hours to reach Brazil, so I began to sleep after boarding the plane. I flew 12 hours and slept for 8 hours. I really admire my ability to sleep on the plane!
It was seven o'clock in the evening in Frankfurt, Germany, and the whole arrival hall was quiet, which was in sharp contrast with the bustling Shanghai Pudong Airport when boarding. There are still four hours waiting time before the next flight, so I found a coffee bar, ordered a cup of coffee, turned on a small and exquisite laptop with a little purple, and waited for my connecting flight in Sao Paulo. Germany at this time is in the middle of winter. Through the glass window, there is light rain in the sky, which falls silently on the empty tarmac! The rare quiet and leisurely atmosphere made my thoughts wander, as if I had returned to the small courtyard in Suzhou, which used to bear my childhood. The Suzhou girl who dared not face the outside world began to appear in front of me!
After graduating from middle school that year, I went to a large state-owned chemical enterprise. After training, I became a chemical analyst. Wearing a white coat every day, dealing with some bottles and jars, doing acid-base titration. Before leaving work, I filled out one test report after another.
The days passed slowly, day after day. Like most girls, I started to fall in love and get married, and then I had a son, Xinger. That year's love and marriage were pure and simple. I have read almost all Jin Yong's martial arts novels with the father of the child, especially the father of the child, who is obsessed with it. Chivalrous Man is my last novel to bid farewell to Jin Yong's Jianghu, because I was sent abroad to learn computer operation. In the early 1990s, computers were not popular. I remember that the computer I used for the exam was 286 memory, Dos operating system and WPS word processing! Then I was transferred to the factory office as a clerk! Thousands of pairs of eyes in the whole factory are looking at me, wondering what strong background and relationship this is! To tell you the truth, I feel quite strange and sudden myself. A female factory director whom I admire very much directed a large state-owned enterprise and transferred me directly from the laboratory to the factory office building. I guess I have never seen the world but have chivalrous temperament to start my journey!
3. Chivalrous women began to introspect and become beautiful women in the workplace.
By chance, I found a new girl in the laboratory where I used to work. She had a thick book in her hand and read it carefully. That's a tutorial for the advanced Chinese self-study exam. It turns out that she applied for the Chinese language major of Nanjing Normal University! By the way, is it difficult to take the exam? The little girl said: not bad, it takes time and effort, and the pass rate is 30%! I said, what if I failed in the exam? She explained that she could take the exam next year!
I couldn't sleep that night, and my grandmother's words lingered in my ears: it's been thirty years since you spent four years. If you have to make up the exam, it's too late! On the last day of applying for the second half of the course, I still showed up at the registration office of the test center. My knee is a little uncomfortable and my heart is full of doubts, but I just want to try!
I'm glad I didn't deviate from the route and was not submerged in an area that made me feel comfortable! That book is as thick as bricks, such as ancient Chinese, modern Chinese, logic, ... I have passed a compulsory course and another elective course! As the saying goes, I spend all other people's coffee time reading. I understand that there is no lost and found office in the world to find the lost years. The process during this period is unforgettable wherever you go! Finally, when my son went to kindergarten, I got the diploma of Nanjing Normal University as I wished. At that time, foreign companies were stationed in the newly developed industrial park in Suzhou. In order to earn milk powder money for my star, I will go to a good school in the future. I took my college diploma and took those languages with me to a foreign company, and then stepped into my Jianghu workplace.
In the departure hall, a group of Brazilian middle school students came back to Sao Paulo. Their laughter pulled me back from the past time tunnel. So I put away my computer and thoughts. When they boarded the flight to Sao Paulo together, the Brazilian dealer was waiting for me to discuss the specific matters of product import!
In 2008, a writer friend described it in one of his books, which basically met my characteristics! "Swallow gave me a deep realistic impression, her civilized upbringing. This can't be reflected by one person in a year or two. It's not that she wants to stay away from this world. Swallows fly around the world, showing their life value to the fullest. It is enough to see whether a person is educated, her manners and her eyes are pure and kind. Many artificial illusions can't stand scrutiny, and noise and turmoil can't stand the polishing of the world years. Brother Yan Fei is undoubtedly a well-educated female executive in the workplace! "
From fear of the outside world to seeing the world clearly, the process is accidental, but the final discovery is inevitable! Ci Yan is destined to fly, although she almost lost her innate ability to fly. A kind heart is full of gratitude: those nobles who gave me opportunities, help and encouragement along the way!
Fly against the wind and immigrate to Vancouver
Since you have chosen the road ahead, let's continue to fly against the wind! When I was middle-aged, I embarked on an immigration journey for my star. In the autumn of 20 1 1, I landed at Vancouver airport with my son who just finished the college entrance examination, another paradise-like city, but so strange! Looking back suddenly, Vancouver and Suzhou have come and gone for ten years. The change in this decade seems to be faster than ever before. Too many stories seem to have happened yesterday!
I clearly remember that day, when I was driving on a stormy road, I was stuck at the intersection of traffic lights. Through the windshield, the sky is overcast, and the pouring cold rain is the only gift in winter morning. I felt lost, but I still signed up for ESL class in adult teaching center. I remember I started from ESL level 4. The terrible thing is that I forgot everything I learned before, and I passed the last level. When I come back from Suzhou, I will give it back to the teacher completely! Especially in Canada, there is no fixed textbook, and it depends entirely on the teacher's own preferences. ?
So I learned to forget, and then took the time to study again. The more I learn, the more I forget ... I am constantly challenging myself, especially when I enter English in Grade 3 12, and I have to read Shakespeare's sonnets. I have studied Chinese language and literature, but I have never used it. When I study English poetry, it comes in handy, because I find that English poetry is also flat, even, neat and rhetorical. I first went to school to learn English. Unexpectedly, I finally passed all the courses taught in senior high schools in BC province. Before the epidemic came, I got a Canadian high school diploma at the age of 52! I don't have the courage to invite anyone to my graduation ceremony, but my heart is still very excited and happy. Vancouver is a beautiful city with charming scenery, but the teachers I met here are also beautiful scenery. Without their encouragement, tolerance and patience, how could there be such an unforgettable story And the support of Tsinghua, old boys and my son! Tell yourself to keep working hard so that I can go anywhere I want!
As time goes by, everyone is the protagonist in his own story.
Lin has a good saying: "life is a cycle, it comes and goes, but all the results are related to childhood!" " "My autistic childhood affected the progress of my journey, but perseverance balanced my personality defects! My journey tells me that everyone is the protagonist in his own story, interpreting the ups and downs in life! Don't worry about getting lost on the road, the lost share in life is somewhere, and your efforts will make you have it again and then walk into a new story with you!
Beautiful Woods, soft air,
Fangcao is saying to me;
The wind at the top of the mountain, the thundering sky
The rolling waves are talking to me;
Bright stars, sunny morning,
The petals stained with dew are saying to me;
My heart flies against the wind!

Li Lang: Your story is like a beautiful prose poem, with the delicate feelings of Jiangnan women, euphemistic melody and brilliant aura! I admire your inner explosive power as a petite and beautiful woman! I remember when I first met you, I always regarded you as a Miss Jiao who had never touched the spring water in Jiangnan. I wondered how this highly successful customer could be your friend and specifically told me to get along with you. After getting along for a long time, I found myself a chivalrous and soft-hearted woman with rich experience, profound knowledge and sincere and kind treatment. Later, I found that you are particularly tenacious and full of gas. The poems written in English are particularly emotional, and the English class in the twelfth grade is not easy. You have aura and solid literary accomplishment. I believe you will write more and better works, especially looking forward to your English creation. Come on!
