Chapter 2929 Education of Children
Zheng Ren sent another WeChat message to Xiao Shitou, and after seeing dozens of unread messages on his phone, he found Director Pan and clicked on the video call.
"Director." Zheng Ren put his phone aside and said to Director Pan while washing up.
Director Pan was sitting in the office, as if he was busy with something.
"Zheng Ren, what time is the award presentation today?" Director Pan asked.
"Director, it's too late for the awards, so don't watch it." Zheng Ren said with a smile, "Enter at 4:00 p.m., and the music doesn't start until 4:30 p.m. At that time, it's already 11:30 p.m. on our side."
"Well, why are you talking so much, kid? There will be a live broadcast tonight."
"There should be." Zheng Ren said, "Director, let's go back sometime on the weekend."
"Come back for a drink, this time you have to drink a bottle of beer for whatever you say, let's have a good celebration!" Old Director Pan said obviously quite happily.
"Okay." Zheng Ren didn't disappoint, a bottle of beer, although the hangover was hard, but this kind of thing must not dampen the interest of the old director.
"Director, how are you doing recently?"
"Why do you ask me this every time? You asked me the night before yesterday." Mr. Pan frowned and tapped his finger on the "Guan Zhu Pian" next to him, "It's okay, I'm very tough, don't worry about it. Don't worry if you won the Nobel Prize Proud, you are still young and have a long way to go."
"Understood Director." Zheng Ren said to Director Pan while brushing his teeth. Although it was not formal, he was not so formal when talking to Director Pan.
"You just woke up?"
"I didn't sleep all night. Today is Yiren's birthday. I squatted downstairs to watch in the middle of the night." Zheng Ren smiled, "I just came back."
"When will I be able to hold my grandson!" Old Director Pan suddenly asked something he shouldn't have asked.
With the toothbrush in his mouth, Zheng Ren froze for a moment, looking at the phone screen, "Director, if I propose marriage, when do you think it would be good?"
"Whatever, it's all formality, it doesn't matter." Director Pan waved his hand, "It's serious to keep a baby. If you don't have time, I'll bring it for you. This side is already on the right track. I estimate the distance I will retire soon."
Zheng Ren thought for a while, scratched his head, and continued to brush his teeth. Brush, brush, this question is so difficult.
Let the old director Pan take care of the child, won't he spoil the child, and besides, the old director's grandson is already going to college, so do you want to take another wave?
Can the body handle it?
Thinking of getting married, having children, and a brand new little life waiting to be taught, Zheng Ren was a little confused about the future.
This is a world beyond his control, Zheng Ren immediately thought of what to do if the child is disobedient.
"What are you thinking?" Old Director Pan asked seeing that Zheng Ren had been silent for a long time.
"Director, what do you say if the child is disobedient? The child of Director Zhou's family in the imperial capital pretended to drink pesticides, and I frightened him to be honest."
"Is it true that my child won't let me go? It's okay. There are so many doctors in our hospital." Old Director Pan said indifferently.
"..." Zheng Ren felt that Director Pan had misunderstood, so he quickly rinsed his mouth, and then explained, "No, I'm worried about education."
"Can you tell me something, get married first!" Director Pan reprimanded, "You start thinking about children's education before you get married? Can you be more unreliable!"
"..."
Zheng Ren thought about it too, and laughed. There are often news that couples talk about what to do after winning the lottery at home, and they get divorced after chatting. I didn't expect that I would make this mistake too.
I think a little too much, maybe I got used to it in the hospital. After picking up the patient, you have to consider various things, including admission examination, surgery, complications...all the way to discharge.
"Director, if you can't stand it at night, don't watch the live broadcast. It's the same for watching the recorded broadcast tomorrow." Zheng Ren urged, "I'll go up to receive an award, and I guess I'll only show up for a few minutes."
"Isn't there still a speech?" Director Pan asked.
"I don't talk when the awards are presented, I only talk at the dinner party. I want to have an operation in the city hall, but it's not possible." Zheng Ren talked a lot in front of Director Pan.
"That's not okay, the dinner is also a speech, so hurry up and think about it today." Director Pan said seriously, "You are representing our country and people."
"It's great to win the award, and we don't need them to admit it. It doesn't matter if the strong are self-improving."
Although Zheng Ren said so, at the insistence of Director Pan, he still agreed to think carefully about what to say when he delivered the speech.
After hanging up the video, Zheng Ren hid the idea of getting married and having children in his heart, and things had to be done step by step. First, let's fool around with today's awards ceremony.
To be honest, I was really tired. Zheng Ren started to have a headache when he thought of the crowds in the Stockholm City Hall, and when he thought of asking him to formally walk to his seat to play Mozart.
There are too many people, and my energy is consumed too much, and I don't know if I can handle it.
As for the dinner party...just fool around and see if I can sneak away when I get a chance. For Zheng Ren, "talking and laughing" with countless mosaics at the dinner party is definitely not as happy as holding Yi Ren's hand and walking on the thick snow on the streets of Stockholm.
Just make it through, Zheng Ren encouraged himself.
After breakfast, Yi Ren came to change Zheng Ren into the white shirt and suit required for the ceremony. After carefully looking at it for a long time, Yi Cai clapped her hands happily.
We don't have time to be together during the day today. Zheng Ren still has a few academic associations here. If he wants to meet the giants of the academic world, Dr. Charles will also fly over to meet before.
A busy day just passed, and Zheng Ren arrived at the city hall on time at 3:50 pm.
Stockholm City Hall is a typical Swedish-style three-story courtyard building, oriented north-south, facing the frozen Lake Mälaren in the south. It is a tradition that the Nobel Prize Ceremony is held here every year.
Fountains, sculptures, flowers and trees, and green spaces are cleverly placed on the long square in front of the hall. It's just that it's winter now, and everywhere you see it is a vast expanse of white snow, which looks a little boring.
To the east of the city hall is the old city island where the Nobel Museum is located, to the north is the small river, and to the west is the bustling business district.
The overall shape of this century-old building is like a huge ship. A 106-meter-high bell tower stands on the east bow, implying sailing to the sun.
There are three golden crowns on the top of the tower, representing the Swedish royal family and the Norwegian royal family and the Danish royal family under their control. The white snow and red bricks made Zheng Ren feel like he was in Sijiu City, the old imperial capital.
The open south gate is a row of high arched holes, and inside is a wide courtyard, which can be freely entered and exited. Turn left and go up a few steps to the gate of the Town Hall.
The guests who were watching the ceremony could already be seen passing through the security check and passing through the wide foyer to the inner hall.
