"Other fresh graduates can only dream of getting into Fenghua Group, Shaohua was lucky to get in. It’s only right for her to endure some hardships," Ma Jinghong, Ye’s mother, waved her hand dismissively.
Upon hearing this sentence, Fei Xiaoxiao’s brows furrowed.
She was always used to having things go her way and simply couldn’t understand the mentality of someone like Ma Jinghong, who was from the lower classes.
She was also aware of Ye Shaohua’s situation; the state of affairs at Fenghua Company was clearly oppressive for newcomers. If someone at the top was suppressing her, no matter how long she worked at Fenghua Company, there would essentially be no chance for advancement.
Unfortunately, even though she had tried to persuade her aunt, Ma Jinghong was otherwise weak on many fronts, yet she was particularly stubborn on this point regarding Ye Shaohua.
"Auntie, I’m going to say something you won’t like. Despite Shaohua doing quite well at Imperial University, she’s actually far behind those returnees with real master’s degrees," said Fei Xiaoxiao bluntly, "I’ve looked at her graduation thesis. Although it’s the dissertation of an excellent graduate, in my eyes it’s complete nonsense. She has no future at Fenghua; she’d be better off finding a small workspace where she might have a chance to stand out."
However, Fei Xiaoxiao hadn’t considered that, although the original owner had graduated from a prestigious university, these days such graduates were a dime a dozen. Without any personal connections at home, being able to get a job at Fenghua Group was already a remarkably outstanding achievement among graduates.
The hope for promotion was slim, but having some work experience with a large corporation would mean plenty of companies would be waiting for her to choose from should she truly decide to quit one day.
If she resigned now, she wouldn’t gain any work experience, and those smaller workspaces might not even consider her.
Resigning would be a loss not worth the cost.
Ma Chunhong wasn’t a parent with outdated thoughts; she knew exactly what her daughter was capable of and had no objections to Fei Xiaoxiao’s words.
She knew Fei Xiaoxiao was a bit harsh with her words but believed it was all for Ye Shaohua’s best interest: "Your uncle Ye and I are both quite simple and haven’t passed much intelligence on to her, but we’ve never hoped for her to achieve anything great. Xiaoxiao, Shaohua is different from you; you’ve been smarter than the average person since you were young, and Xiaozhe is very much like you."
Hearing Ma Chunhong speak without ambition, Fei Xiaoxiao couldn’t be bothered to say anything.
Ye Shaohua, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but cover her face with the book in her hands.
Sighing behind the cover of the book.
Fei Xiaoxiao saw the book that Ye Shaohua had covered her face with—
"PHP Core Technology and Best Practices."
This was not a mandatory book for computer science students, but an advanced PHP technology expansion book. For the average graduate, mastering this book would be difficult, and the original owner had been struggling with it recently.
Indeed, the original owner’s college major was computer technology. At the time of her college entrance exams, there was an IT technology craze, and she chose this major following her parents’ advice.
But she hadn’t expected the field to have so few women—less than 5%. Ye Shaohua admired the original owner’s success in entering Fenghua Group amidst such stiff competition.
"Cousin, are you still studying?" Since last month, Fei Xiaoxiao had seen Ye Shaohua constantly poring over this book; a whole month had passed, and she was still on it, "How is it going?"
Fei Xiaoxiao paused; she was satisfied with merely four thousand eight hundred a month? A year’s salary wouldn’t even match the money she made from a single order.
Unaware of Fei Xiaoxiao’s inner thoughts, Ma Chunhong suddenly said, "Xiaoxiao, you don’t know; people in the village envy Shaohua for getting into Imperial University and finding a stable job. She’s not getting any younger, and I’m thinking of arranging a blind date for her. By the way, Xiaoxiao, do you know any young men?" ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Her worries throughout the year were only about the two children she raised.
In earlier years, Ma Chunhong had also been concerned about Fei Xiaoxiao’s marriage but didn’t expect Fei Xiaoxiao would have a child out of wedlock. Ma Chunhong had introduced several prospects to her, none of which Fei Xiaoxiao was satisfied with.
In the end, Fei Xiaoxiao told Ma Chunhong to stop meddling in her affairs.
Since Fei Xiaoxiao wasn’t her biological child, when Ma Chunhong saw that she was sincerely upset, she didn’t say anything more, just visiting Fei Xiaoxiao and her son from time to time, especially feeling sorry for Fei Zhe, a child who had been single-parented since birth.
"I do know a few outstanding individuals," Fei Xiaoxiao said with a complex expression on her face.
Ma Chunhong’s eyes lit up, "Do you have..."
"However, my cousin isn’t suitable for them," Fei Xiaoxiao knew what Ma Chunhong was hinting at and directly refused.
The people she knew were somewhat famous hackers in the country; they were in a different circle from Ye Shaohua and wouldn’t even consider looking at an outdated book like PHP anymore.
Could Ye Shaohua be a match for them?
