Kneeling in front of my wife’s tombstone and crying bitterly, I was reborn

Chapter 519 It’s really hard to choose

Shen Qiansan naturally heard what Tang Mingzhu said.

Originally, he just thought that Tang Mingzhu was a foodie in her previous life, so he cooked her a meal of her favorite dishes, just to try and see if the food could impress her and lay the groundwork for poaching her in the future. He never thought that he would trick her into coming to Qingwa City in one go.

After all, the thinking of this era is still very conservative, and people still attach great importance to work, especially jobs with a regular job in a newspaper, which is really a stable job, and people generally won't quit just like that.

But Tang Mingzhu's performance obviously exceeded his expectations.

Her pursuit of delicious food is far more important than her stable job.

Shen Qiansan didn't know why Tang Mingzhu resigned from the newspaper and went into business in her previous life, but he was sure that it was not because of the pursuit of delicious food.

"I still don't know her well enough!"

Shen Qiansan sighed silently in his heart, and his gaze towards Tang Mingzhu became even more passionate.

Since the original test received a positive response, he decided to change the plan and add fuel to the fire to advance the progress of digging Tang Mingzhu.

Shen Qiansan asked Tang Mingzhu: "Do you still remember your ideal on your first day of school?"

Tang Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but recall the scene on the first day of preschool. The teacher asked all the students, what kind of person do you want to be when you grow up?

There were all kinds of answers, some wanted to be doctors, some wanted to be teachers, some wanted to be scientists, some wanted to be soldiers to defend the motherland...

I believe that most people born in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s have experienced such scenes.

Tang Mingzhu also remembers it very clearly. Her answer was different from that of most other children. She said she wanted to contribute to the country's economic development.

Her answer is related to her background.

The reason why Shen Qiansan asked this question was that he had read the memoirs written by Tang Mingzhu later, which said that her mother was a red capitalist and she had been influenced by her mother since she was a child and believed that only when the country is rich can the people be strong.

At that time, her answer was criticized by the teacher. Because when she was in primary school, it was a special period. "Down with the capitalist roaders" was a slogan that resounded throughout the world. At that stage, who would talk about the economy? What people shouted every day was "Labor is glorious" and "Devote one's life to the cause".

Tang Mingzhu said in her memoirs that it was because of the criticism from her teacher that her later thoughts were affected. She finally chose journalism as her major when she was in college, and joined a daily newspaper after graduation, becoming a reporter known as the uncrowned king.

However, the so-called ideals of childhood did not even make a ripple in the tide of the times and just went with the flow.

When she was old and had become a successful entrepreneur, looking back on that period of time, she once said that if she had kept her original aspirations in mind and entered the business world earlier, she might have made greater contributions to the country's economic development.

Recalling this, although Tang Mingzhu didn't understand why Shen Qiansan asked this, she laughed at herself and said, "When I was a kid, I didn't understand what ideals were!"

But after laughing, he still said: "I remember that I said I wanted to contribute to the country's economic development."

Zhao Hanyu looked at Tang Mingzhu in surprise, and then said, "Isn't your ideal to be a good reporter?"

He clearly remembered that when they were in college, the two of them once talked about this topic, and Tang Mingzhu said this.

Why did it change again today?

Tang Mingzhu rolled her eyes at him and said, "That was my ideal when I was in college, or the choice I made after the college entrance examination."

"Third brother asked what I said on my first day of school."

"That's what I said at the time."

Although she now does not have the same insights as she did after becoming an entrepreneur in her previous life, and her tone of voice is very flat and without any emotion, she still clearly remembers what she said and says it seriously.

Zhao Hanyu nodded. On the first day of school, the teacher usually asks you what you want to do when you grow up.

He also had such experience.

After thinking for a while, he said, "It's hard for you to remember it. I don't remember what I said at that time."

"But I definitely didn't say I wanted to be a boss at that time. I probably meant to be a soldier."

After saying that, he smiled and said, "I have helped you realize your original dream. I am now contributing to the country's economic development."

Tang Mingzhu curled her lips and said, "Who needs you to help me realize my dream? I can realize it myself."

After saying that, he looked at Shen Qiansan and asked, "Third brother, why do you ask this?"

"No reason!" Shen Qiansan waved his hand and said, "I just heard you mumbling about what you were doing in Qingwa City, so I asked casually."

Is it really?

Tang Mingzhu looked at him with some disbelief.

Seeing this, Shen Qiansan smiled and said, "There is a saying that goes, if you don't forget your original intention, you will succeed. I can give it to you as a reference."

"Only by keeping your original aspiration in mind can you achieve your goal!" Tang Mingzhu murmured and repeated these words.

This sentence, which has struck many people in later generations, has not yet become popular among people today.

However, to Tang Mingzhu, it seemed as if there was a power that traveled through time and space, which had a shocking impact on her heart.

"That's so good!"

Tang Mingzhu nodded heavily, but a bitterness welled up in her heart. How many people in this world can remember their original aspirations?

Most of the time, ideals become dreams, and dreams become just dreams.

But dreams are eventually forgotten after waking up.

Thinking of this, Tang Mingzhu became more determined.

If she was only tempted by the delicious food before, then at this moment her true self was truly awakened by Shen Qiansan's words.

Leaving the newspaper doesn't seem to be a difficult thing.

What made her feel embarrassed now was whether she really had to come to Qingwa City after resigning from the newspaper.

Living in a wealthy family since childhood, her vision is destined to be much higher than that of ordinary people, and she deeply understands the importance of stage size.

To know how successful a person can be, ability is only one aspect, the size of the platform is more important.

Therefore, from an intuitive point of view, resigning and moving to Qingwa City is obviously not a good choice.

If you really want to get into the business world, the right choice would be to go to the developed cities on the coast or to the special economic zones in the south.

Even staying in the provincial capital Jiangcheng is much better than coming to a prefecture-level city like Qingwa.

But when she thought of this, her heart felt inexplicably empty.

It would be good to go to a developed coastal city or a special zone in the south, but it would still be the same as staying in Jiangcheng, far away from Qingwa City, and you would not be able to eat the food cooked by Shen Qiansan.

What a difficult choice!

Tang Mingzhu, who always did things in a hurry, couldn't help but become hesitant and unable to make up her mind.
