Chu Ye scratched his head and told what happened before. After hearing this, the three people in the dormitory were amazed and sighed that they were lucky not to be in the same dormitory with this person.
At noon, the four of them took their bowls and chopsticks to the cafeteria. The cafeteria was a large flat floor. After entering, there were rows of square tables. At this time, many people were already eating.
Chu Ye and the other four walked forward to the place where they were serving meals and saw two lines of people queuing up. There were small blackboards hanging on the two windows with today's meals written on them.
On the left is rice with side dishes including eggplant, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried vegetables, and a braised pork dish. On the right is noodles with toppings, with prices marked on them.
Originally, there was no tuition fee for attending technical secondary schools, and the school would also provide students with living allowances every semester. However, the school has just started and it will take a few days for the subsidies to come out, so now students have to pay for their own meals.
Chu Ye looked around. She didn't want to eat noodles on such a hot day, so she took her rice bowl and stood in the rice queue.
When the four of them sat back at the same dining table, Chu Ye's bowl was filled with eggplant and green vegetables. Although the other three had different dishes, they all had braised pork.
Chu Ye didn't look uncomfortable at all. If she felt inferior because others could eat meat but she didn't have the money to buy meat, then she would have been so inferior to Mu Jiajun that she couldn't hold her head up.
The other three people were expressionless. When they saw Chu Ye for the first time yesterday, they knew that she was not a very wealthy person.
At this moment, Zhao Yue smiled and took out a glass jar from her bag. Inside was silver-white radish strips cut into finger-thick pieces, dotted with red pepper rings.
As soon as they opened it, a sour and spicy smell hit the four people's noses, making their mouths water. Suddenly, they felt that the original braised pork was not so fragrant.
Zhao Yue had a sincere smile on her round face. She held up the glass jar and handed it to several people one by one, vowing to let them all have a taste. "My mother is very good at pickling. You guys have a try, but It’s delicious. My mother made this specially for me because she was afraid that I would be homesick at school!”
Chu Ye took a piece and put it in his mouth to chew. Initially, a sour taste rushed into his tongue, followed by the spiciness of chopped pepper. When he gently bit the radish strip, the crisp taste mixed with the burst of water vapor rushed into his mouth, and then he was clear The sweet taste balances out the sour and spicy taste, which only makes me feel appetizing.
Chu Ye finished the meal in one gulp, then hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of rice. He looked up and saw the eyes of the other two people were full of surprise.
In response to this reaction, Zhao Yue smiled heartily, "I'm not wrong, my mother's pickled food is delicious. Come on, you can eat more."
Zhao Yue simply placed the jar in the middle of the table. The three of them didn't want to take it anymore, but they were really attracted by the delicious food. After thanking them, they exchanged the food in the bowls. In the end, even Chu Ye's bowl had a few more pieces of meat. .
After dinner, they returned to the dormitory together. Chu Ye changed his clothes and planned to clean them, so he went to the water room with the basin in his arms.
At the end of each floor of their dormitory is the toilet and water room, two opposite rooms, with paint marks on the wooden doors.
On the right hand side of the water room when entering the water room is a row of wash basins. Above the sink are more than a dozen faucets. There is another door on the left. When you open it, there is a public bath room with two newly installed shower heads and a large Bath.
After Chu Ye finished washing his clothes, he took a short rest in the dormitory. The sun outside the house moved to the west, and the hot fire gradually penetrated into the ground. Melodious music came from the school's loudspeaker, beating on everyone's heart.
Chu Ye packed up her things and let Zhao Yue pull her, Qin Manwen, and Leng Zhuojun who followed behind, to the east of the teaching building.
There was originally a flag-raising platform here, a square surrounded by steel, with an opening for two people to pass through in the front. At this time, a silver-white rectangular curtain was placed in front, and four long thick ropes were pulled up from the four corners of the curtain, pulling the The cloth stretches.
There are already students who have come early, reserved seats in advance, sat together with familiar people, or chatted and laughed together with food, waiting for the wonderful scenes to be performed on the curtain after nightfall.
Zhao Yue has already asked a classmate she just met to find out the title of the film to be shown, which is the famous anti-Japanese drama - "Yellow River Boy".
Chu Ye and Zhao Yue had not seen it. Although the other two had seen it, they thought that they would have nothing to do if they went back to the dormitory, so they might as well stay here and have fun, so the four of them walked back to the classroom to move the benches. When they returned to the original place, Chu Ye thought of something again, told the three of them, and turned towards the dormitory building.
When she came back, she had a handkerchief in her hand, and inside it was the dried prunes brought to her by Brother Jianwen. When she sat down, she kindly shared them with the other three people.
Qin Manwen and Leng Zhuojun were a little embarrassed. They didn't bring anything to eat at the beginning of the school year. At this time, they reached out to take it, and they felt bad about it.
However, Zhao Yue on the side was completely unaware of the mental activities of the two people. He thanked him carelessly, then picked up the dried plum and took a bite. Then his eyes widened and he said, "Yeah! This is delicious, sour and sweet, and chewy." .”
Then she turned her head and looked at Qin Manwen and Leng Zhuojun, "You should try it quickly, it tastes really good!"
Seeing Zhao Yue eating happily and seeing Chu Ye's eager eyes, the two people urged them to accept the prunes. They simply stopped refusing and took them after thanking them. After tasting the taste, they unconsciously praised the delicious taste.
"Did you do this yourself?" Zhao Yue pulled Chu Ye to sit on the bench. Now the four of them sat in a row. The sun was sinking to the west, and the orange-red sunset was evenly sprinkled on the earth and the earth. On everyone's face.
Chu Ye answered Zhao Yue's question with a smile. The other two people leaned closer, nodding and interjecting occasionally. After finishing this topic, they naturally talked about the next topic. The atmosphere between the four of them became more and more harmonious. When the sun set clearly in the west, the stars gradually appeared through the clouds. At some point, a bright moon quietly unveiled its veil and shed its milky white light.
The street lights on the campus also turned on at this time, and countless white moths circled around the lights. A sudden wind blew, making the surrounding leaves rustle.
The curtain lit up at this moment, and the crowd who were still chatting noisily fell silent in unison. They opened their eyes wide and stretched their necks to watch the colorful lights and shadows play on the curtain.
Chu Ye straightened his back and stared straight ahead, as if he wanted to imprint everything he saw into his mind.
Since she can remember, there have only been two outdoor movie watching scenes like this. In the past, each village in the town took turns to play the movie. When it was their village's turn, they would set up a curtain in the open space at the entrance of the village, and then people would rush forward. They went to take a seat in fear. For several days after watching the scene, the villagers were still discussing it eagerly and reminiscing about the plot they had seen.
The screen was playing a scene of the protagonist dealing with the enemy. There was a deafening sound in her ears, and Zhao Yue was exclaiming in a low voice. She was already immersed in it, worried about whether the protagonist could escape.
The bright moon is high in the sky and the stars are twinkling, indicating that tomorrow will be a good day.
——
Early the next morning, the four of them went to the classroom after dinner and sat in the same position as yesterday. The eight o'clock bell rang and the head teacher came in. He first said some messages to the students for the new semester, and then told the students about the importance of the position of teacher. I hope that everyone will work diligently in school and contribute to the country’s education after graduation.
The students were very excited after these words, and then the head teacher asked everyone to come on stage one by one to introduce themselves and talk about their dreams.
The head teacher pointed a finger and asked the boy sitting next to the door to stand on the podium first. Suddenly the eyes of everyone in the classroom fell on him.
The boy looked honest and shy. It was probably the first time he faced such a moment of public attention. His face and neck instantly turned red. He lowered his head in embarrassment and walked slowly onto the podium.
The class teacher looked kind and had an encouraging smile. He stood next to the boy and put his hand on the boy's shoulder, as if to convey strength to him.
The head teacher looked at everyone in the audience with soft eyes, as if looking at the new green buds in spring, "You have now embarked on the road of education, and generations of students in the future will thrive under your hands."
< br>
"As teachers, you must not only have sufficient knowledge reserves, but also be able to solve various conflicts encountered during teaching. The most important thing is that you must adapt to the podium. If you are not afraid of the many eyes in the audience, the podium is your battlefield. .”
The head teacher's words were like a spring breeze, blowing into everyone's hearts and sweeping away the timidity in many people's hearts. The boy even clenched his fists and mustered up the courage to introduce himself.
When he finished speaking, there was a round of applause from the podium. The boy bowed deeply and returned to his seat. Then the girl sitting behind him stood up, walked onto the podium, and introduced her name, hobbies and dreams in a smooth and elegant manner.
People in the class came on stage one by one in an "S" shape according to their seating order. The four people from Chu Ye were seated near the window. When it was their turn, only a handful of people in the class had not yet taken the stage.
As the first person in the dormitory to take the stage, Chu Ye didn't feel too nervous at the moment. Instead, Zhao Yue gently said "Come on" when she stood up. Chu Ye walked up to the podium and subconsciously looked in the direction of the three people in the dormitory. Everyone encouraged themselves with bright eyes. Even Leng Zhuojun, who was not so enthusiastic, clenched his fists and gave a cheering gesture.
Chu Ye felt warm in his heart, stood on the podium, smiled generously, and began to briefly introduce himself.
The class ended quickly. After the break, other teachers came. The teacher also introduced himself first, and then began to briefly explain the course content. The morning passed quickly like this.
At noon, a group of people went to the cafeteria to eat. When they sat down with their rice bowls, they saw Qiao Mingzhu from the dormitory sitting near them, and they could hear them talking while eating.
I don’t know who is flattering Qiao Mingzhu, praising her magnanimity when she takes the stage and her great dreams.
But she obeyed and snorted slightly. Qiao Mingzhu's eyes that were already raised were filled with disdain now, "You just believe what this means? My dream is not to become an excellent teacher, that's all just a joke. ”
Seeing Qiao Mingzhu put down the chopsticks in her hand, her tone was full of arrogance, "Only you would think this way. I am a teacher, but I have to rely on my status to marry a rich man and live a good life, unlike you."
< br>
She glanced around and said proudly, "I'm so good-looking, so of course I can't be the same as you."
The people around her looked like their family background was not as good as Qiao Mingzhu's. After hearing such words, although they felt unhappy, they did not say anything more because of the conflict.
Chu Ye at the table understood these words clearly. The four of them looked at each other briefly, and then immersed themselves in eating. However, Zhao Yue leaned on the edge of the bowl and said in a voice that only a few people could hear, "I see that girl, She’s not as good-looking as Manwen, and most people can’t stand her temperament. How blind and rich does it take to fall in love with her?”
She curled her lips, and the three of them chuckled slightly.
