Chapter 654 A bunch of good role models
When Li Ye, Wen Leyu, and Fu Yiruo arrived at the University of California, they saw hundreds of international students, and there were people coming over in twos and threes from behind, and happily joined the crowd.
So he asked Zhen Rongrong: "Are there actually so many mainland students at UC?"
Zhen Rongrong pursed her lips and said, "Some of them came from other schools. Some of them have graduated but have not returned to China yet.”
“.”
Before Zhen Rongrong went abroad, she was angry because Li Ye asked her if she would come back. She felt that Li Ye was questioning the personality of Zhen Rongrong, a veteran D member.
But when she arrived at the lighthouse, she deeply understood why Li Ye questioned it.
Not to mention the material gap between skyscrapers and modern cities, just the fact that there were so many "pioneers" stranded in the lighthouse made a difference for Zhen Rongrong and others later. A good example of "walk high".
This thing is just like the cruel environment during World War II. If there is one informer among a hundred people, he is a traitor, but if there are twenty informants among a hundred people.
How high a moral bottom line do the other eighty people have?
Is it a hot and spicy flower girl, or a red heart chewing tree bark? This is a question that tests human nature. It may be more obvious than the effect of pepper water.
Just like the situation Zhen Rongrong is facing now, the idea of "if no one else is going back to China, then wouldn't I be a fool if I go back to China?" is definitely not an exception.
"Okay, don't think about what you have and what is gone, hurry up and help move things, otherwise it will be too late for the New Year's Eve dinner."
Li Ye saw Zhen Rongrong's loneliness and called out He asked her to help move things out of the pickup truck and add some dishes for the upcoming dinner.
"Li Ye, why did you buy so many things! You also bought so many vegetables, you are really...sigh."
"You can't just come with your mouth, right? We're not like that."
After Zhen Rongrong saw the meat and vegetables in the pickup truck, she really didn't know what to say about Li Ye.
Although it is definitely inappropriate to attend a dinner party empty-handed, Li Ye brought too many things.
Especially the relatively niche vegetables.
In the lighthouse, some vegetables are very cheap, such as potatoes, but some vegetables are extremely expensive, such as water spinach.
After many international students have lived here for a long time, the desire to eat a plate of green leafy vegetables is even stronger than the desire to eat.
"Wow, Rongrong, did you win the lottery? Why did you get so many vegetables? You can make dumplings filled with chives and eggs today!"
"My classmate brought it over. I'm too embarrassed to come here and eat for nothing."
"Hey, did your classmate join a big company? Is he so wealthy? I saw Xia Zhemin just now. Did you know that he joined Boeing? That’s 32,000 US dollars!”
“None of my classmates came to the Lighthouse for exchange and internship, and the internship company’s salary is good.”
"Then will he stay in the lighthouse after his internship?"
"Probably not. He will go back to the mainland."
"Ah! There is no future in that! Why not stay in the lighthouse? ?”
“.”
Zhen Rongrong smiled awkwardly and looked sideways at Li Ye.
In the end, Li Ye was not angry at all. Instead, he led Wen Leyu and Fu Yiruo to mix with the dumpling-making classmates, chopping the fillings and rolling out the dough.
Li Ye understands the principle that people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. Everyone has his own ambitions. If you think this is a higher place, then just go.
And when the window for overseas students was opened, the above had considered this situation. Even if two or three out of ten returned to the mainland, they would still make money.
People who are willing to work are welcome everywhere. After Li Ye took over the job of chopping stuffing from a boy whose arms were sore, everyone quickly became familiar with each other.
After Sister Zhen arrived, everyone became more lively.
"Hey, this classmate, can you kill a chicken?"
"What?"
Li Ye was waving two kitchen knives up and down! Suddenly a girl ran over with a red face and asked for help.
The girl said sheepishly: "Some overseas Chinese gave us some live chickens, but we can't kill them." Li Ye nodded and said: "I can kill chickens, but you guys are sure that those Dengtao classmates will not be able to kill them." Don’t you think we are too cruel?”
Today, overseas students from the mainland gathered together for a party, and some students from other countries also came to join in the fun.
Some lighthouse people don’t like killing, so if Li Ye performs bloodletting and hair ironing live, I wonder if it will cause some people’s psychological discomfort.
"No, no, no," the girl shook her head like a rattle and said, "We will kill it ourselves in the corner over there, but we have four chickens in total, and one of them has already flown away just now. "
Li Ye really couldn't refuse, so he had to follow the girl and saw three roosters with their claws tied up, as well as a few frowning classmates.
Looking at the hopeless expressions on their faces and the cocks holding their heads high, Li Ye could figure out what just happened.
This is not to blame these children. Although they may be able to cook at home, the work of killing chickens is usually done by the adults in the family, and children cannot get involved.
Li Ye works as a chef at Zaojun Temple. Killing chickens must be a piece of cake. He raised and lowered the knife with both hands, and the throats of two chickens were cut in succession and bled.
But just when he was about to kill the third one, he suddenly heard a high-decibel scream, and his hands trembled in shock.
“Ah~, how can you be so cruel?”
Who the hell is so mean?
Li Ye held the knife in one hand and grabbed the chicken with the other. He turned his head and looked over angrily.
Hey, he turned out to be an acquaintance. It was Miss Ruan Shujun who was weak after giving birth.
Before Li Ye said anything, Wen Leyu, who was helping on the side, said angrily: "If you think it's cruel, then don't eat it later. Li Ye almost cut his hand after being surprised. "
"But...but it is a life."
Ruan Shujun grabbed the corner of her clothes in aggrieved manner, as if she was about to shed tears at the next moment, she looked extremely weak. Image of the Virgin.
Sister Zhen stood up, looked at Ruan Shujun and said sarcastically: "Ruan Shujun, you can even pity the life of a chicken, but what about human life?"
"."
Ruan Shujun's Tears flowed down. A few days ago, she strangled the life of a human baby with her own hands.
"Tian Xizhen, why are you still so aggressive when you speak! Hahahaha, Xiao Ruan is soft-hearted and won't kill at all, so don't argue with him!"
A tall man, from Ruan Shujun's She came over from behind and called out Sister Zhen's name with a smile.
Sister Zhen narrowed her eyes and asked calmly: "Xia Zhemin, are you very busy at work now? It's eight hundred miles from Seattle to here, and you actually have time to come and join in the fun?"
My name is Xia Zhe Min's man spread his hands and said, "Thanks to Beacon's work system and convenient transportation, I only need to work five days a week, and flying here won't waste any time."
Li Ye narrowed his eyes. Eyes, I remembered the name Xia Zhemin.
Boeing is a big company now!
Xia Zhemin also noticed Li Ye's eyes and took the initiative to come over and extend his hand: "Hello, Xia Zhemin."
Li Ye raised the kitchen knife in his hand and said: "Li Ye, killing the chicken! It's not convenient."
"Hehehe~"
Xia Zhemin smiled and said: "You are Did you just come to study abroad this year? I studied at Tsinghua University in China, and I studied for a master's degree at UC, and now I'm studying at Boeing."
Li Ye said lightly: "I studied at Peking University in China. I might study for a master's degree, but if I work, it will definitely be in China."
"."
Xia Zhemin's eyelids twitched for no apparent reason.
Beijing University?
Are you trying to quarrel with me?
