Chapter 99 It’s nice to have fun
Traffic jams in the capital are almost universally known, and if they are not jammed for more than ten minutes, they are not called jams. Because of two traffic jams in succession, a full fifty minutes were wasted, and it was already past four o'clock when we returned to Qingdao University.
When they arrived at a convenient place, Chao drove the car to a supermarket and parked it. The two of them went shopping. There was no need to buy pots and pans. Because they didn’t know if they had prepared oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, cutting boards, and kitchen knives, they bought them first. For one portion, buy chicken and pork, a small bunch of cabbage, a large pepper, and a tender pumpkin.
Buy all the items, check out and leave.
The Youdao Gate of Qingdao University has become an antique building and cars are not allowed to pass through. Chao drove to the south gate to enter the school. The campus of Qingdao University covers a wide area. The campus and the school are like a small town. The structure is similar to the famous Oxford University in Country Y. .
Modern architecture and classical architecture coexist in Qingdao University campus, realizing the fusion of modern and ancient, the symbiosis of original flavor and fashion, the unity of humanity, and the unity of nature and man.
At this time, the new students have not reported yet, and the old students have not returned to school yet. Every street in the huge Qingdao University Campus is so calm and elegant. You can occasionally see cars and pedestrians, and they are also so leisurely.
The sun shines obliquely, and the shadows of some buildings and trees are cast obliquely on the ground. The shadows are mottled and broken, shaking out the local style, making time seem to become idle and slow.
The car is in the realm of harmony between man and nature, passing through high-rise buildings, ancient corridors and pavilions, leisure streets and long roads, Zhulou painted buildings, lakes, ponds, rockeries, waterside pavilions and trees, and along the winding road through the green grassland , arrived in front of an eight-story building.
The shape of the building is a traditional Chinese architectural style, exquisite and low-key, elegant and simple. The building is located among green grass and green trees, facing the rows of buildings in the distance. Its walls are covered with The high-profile three-character "Zhuangyuan Building".
Classmate Le did not see the words posted on the wall of the building. She was looking at the scenery and memorizing the roads. However, she saw the stone standing in front of the building, with "Zhuangyuan Building" engraved on it, as well as the date of signing and the date of construction.
"Number One Scholar Building, what the hell?" Le Yun couldn't help but mutter, is this Number One Scholar Building what she imagined?
"The Zhuangyuan Building is a dormitory for the best students from each department. It was prepared in 2009, started construction in 2010, and was put into use in the second half of 2011. Now it is home to the top students in various majors, and the top students in the college entrance examination come to Beijing in advance every year. When I came to Qingdao University, I was also arranged to live in the Zhuangyuan Building.”
Chao Yubo explained with a smile that the top student building of Qingda University is an apartment building specially built for the top students of each department. The conditions for moving in are that the students have excellent scores in all subjects and departments and have excellent overall scores. Then all the students with excellent scores in the school will compete together, and the fittest will survive. .
Therefore, as long as students of Qingdao University work hard enough, they will have the opportunity to live in the No. 1 Scholar Building. Although the competition is often fierce, it is understandable. Fierce competition is also one of the driving forces that encourages the top students of Qingdao University to continue to innovate.
"I see. In other words, I am also honored to live here?" It was pretty much what she had imagined. Le Yun was overjoyed. The treatment was good.
"Of course. If Xiao Lele had come to Beijing in June, he would have already become one of the residents of Zhuangyuan Building."
The delicate young man drove the car, carefully bypassing the stone carvings, turning a corner, and the car stopped in front of a staircase in the building. The two of them unbuckled their seat belts and got out of the car.
Zhuangyuan Building is a single-story building, facing north and south, with two stairwells. Since it has only eight floors and no elevator, it has two units on the first floor, making it simple and quiet.
In the capital, where land is at a premium, building a single-family building with one staircase and two households is simply a waste of land. From another perspective, it also highlights its preciousness.
Le Yun does not have particularly high requirements for accommodation. She just wants to have an independent space with good privacy, so whether it is a high-rise building or a single-family building, as long as she can have a single room, she feels it is the most perfect, so she is particularly interested in the new residence. expect.
Taking out the suitcase and the purchased items from the back seat and trunk, Le picked up the heavy box containing watermelon items and threw it over his shoulder. Then he gave the shopping bag to Brother Chao and let him hold the items. At that moment, he grabbed the other suitcase with one hand and carried it in his hand, grabbing the two suitcases and carrying them himself.
Brother Chao is so weak, he must not be allowed to help carry heavy objects upstairs.
"Brother Chao, please walk slowly, don't be in a hurry." After snatching the suitcase, classmate Le ran straight up the stairs with a clanging clang. The little man's movements were like flowing water and his posture was graceful.
"!" The delicate young man's face was full of surprise. Lele is so strong. One second she was a cute, pure and innocent little lolita, and in the blink of an eye she transformed into a tomboy. She could freely switch between the two different auras. It was simply unbelievable. Like again.
The two suitcases were taken away by the owner. He couldn't help, so he had to follow behind and slowly go upstairs with a bag of items bought from the mall.
Classmate Le didn't feel the weight while carrying two suitcases. To her, carrying a suitcase felt similar to carrying a watermelon before turning on the plug-in. She climbed up to the fourth floor in one breath without even blushing. .
When she got to the fourth floor, she looked at the two doors facing each other. She was a little confused. Well, she only knew that her dormitory was on the fourth floor. She didn't know whether it was the east door or the west door. She couldn't figure out the way, so she put her luggage The box was placed on the landing, waiting for Brother Chao.
Soon the delicate young man went upstairs. Even though he was not lifting heavy objects, he was panting slightly from exhaustion. His fair face was dripping with sweat. Due to sweating and being tired, his cheeks were flushed, and his long and narrow eyes were speckled with water. He was especially Delicate.
Too weak!
Silently, Le Yun sighed in her heart. Brother Chao was born with a flaw. He had not been able to adjust after being raised for more than ten years. He was still so weak. It was really difficult for him.
"I've kept you waiting for a long time." After climbing to the fourth floor, Chao Yubo wiped his sweat sheepishly. His body was so unsatisfactory that he was out of breath even after climbing up the stairs with bare hands, which was embarrassing.
Turning around, the young man was happy again. Although he was lagging behind, today was better than before. At least he climbed from the first floor to the fourth floor in one breath. If it were changed in the past, he would never have been able to do it. At least in the middle Take one or two breaks.
"Brother Chao, which floor do you live on?"
"Second floor, on the other side of the stairs." Chao Yubo took out the key from his backpack and walked to the east door to unlock it.
"Wow, it's the room on the east side. How nice!" Le Yun almost jumped for joy when she saw Brother Chao opening the door.
There are two rooms in the dormitory building, but the two suites between the two stairs are connected and share a wall. Only the east or west room on the far side is on the side of the stairs, which is completely independent.
Chao Yubo smiled deeply, opened the door, and let the little girl, who was smiling so hard that her teeth couldn't see her eyes, go into the room and let her see her new residence.
Le Yun dragged two suitcases and rushed into the dormitory excitedly, dropped her things and looked around.
The dormitory is an apartment with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom. There is a small living room at the entrance. The north-facing side is the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen and living room are separated by a glass wall. The kitchen faces the window and has excellent lighting. The living room has a south view. It can also be lit from the north direction, making it bright and transparent.
The kitchen is about two square meters, with a door leading to the living balcony. The other half of the space next to the kitchen is the bathroom, and the door opens to the living room.
To the east is the bedroom, with a door leading to the balcony. The bedroom is lit from the north and south, with a double bed, two bedside tables, two double-door wardrobes, and a writing desk with a small bookshelf.
The living room also has a writing desk and a square wooden table with a table and four chairs. The kitchen is an apartment and is not decorated by myself, so there are no wall cabinets. There is a storage grid under the kitchen table, a glass sliding door, and a The grid is used to store items such as baskets, and the wall adjacent to the bathroom is equipped with a sink.
There are many wire pins available for use in the living room, bedroom and kitchen. There are radiators in the living room and bedroom, which provide unified heating in winter, and there is also air conditioning in the bedroom.
Overall, the apartment is very exquisite, about twenty square meters in total, the living room is about seven square meters, and the bedroom is about eight square meters. Although the place looks small, it is well-equipped.
The curtains are a very light orange, a very warm color. The double bed in the bedroom is covered with sheets, mats, and vanilla pillows for summer.
The light orange windows make the whole place feel like home. The windows are fully opened and the air circulates. The room is not stuffy and there is no need for air conditioning.
Running into the dormitory, Le Yun went from the living room to the bedroom, then from the balcony to the kitchen, and ran to the bathroom to take a look. Looking back, she saw the beautiful boy Chao Gege sitting elegantly on the computer desk with a smile. She rushed over like a joy and hugged her thigh. : "Brother Chao, is this place really for me to live in?"
"Yes, Lele will live here from now on." The young man's phoenix eyes were raised, showing off and withering joy.
"Let me live alone?"
"Well, Lele lives alone."
"However, it does not mean that at least two people live in a room. It seems unreasonable to make a special exception for me."
"Most of this building has one living room and two bedrooms, and one room can accommodate two people. Due to the limited area of the building when the building was built, it was too crowded to have two bedrooms and one living room, so only the eastmost row has one bedroom and one living room. , the others are all one living room and two rooms.
Excluding some people who graduated this year, the total number of newcomers and top scorers in the college entrance examination are men's doubles and women's singles. The boys have not been singled out, and the girls have been singled out. The other girls have arranged their dormitories first. In June, Lele has no singles. When I entered Beijing, I fell behind, so I got a bargain and lived alone in a room. Lele, you have to work hard. If you can't keep your excellent grades in all subjects, you may be kicked out after a year, or someone new will come to take your place. ”
In the Zhuangyuan Building of Qingda University, except for the top student in the college entrance examination who chooses to study at Qingdao University in the college entrance examination, he will live in the Zhuangyuan Building when he enters the school. If the performance of other personnel declines and is overtaken by others, then he will have to give up his place and the place where he lives will be replaced by the new one. The top student and the god of learning took their place.
"Brother Chao, you have contributed a lot to this, right?" Le Yun hugged Brother Chao's pretty boy's arm, her eyes flashed and she smiled very cunningly.
"To put it bluntly, I didn't contribute anything. I just gave some brief suggestions to several leaders of the school. The leaders are wise and feel that Lele is a talent that can be created and I want to cultivate it carefully.
The bed, wardrobe, bedside table, desk, small table and chairs are all bulky equipment provided by the school. I will come here to eat and drink when I have time in the future, so I moved a desk to the living room. I bought the sheets, curtains and kitchen utensils myself. Do you have any? If you like it, change it another day. ”
"Brother Chao, how much did you pay for these furniture? I'll pay the tuition after I report tomorrow, and I'll pay it back to you when I get back." "Humph, who do you think Brother Chao is? I'm helping my sister buy some small things and I'll give it back to you." Money? ”
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, brother doesn't have to give money to buy things for my sister. Brother Chao is great. Brother Tuhao who has the president of the student union is different. Give me a hug for your thick thighs!"
"You're holding it."
"I have decided that I will cling to Brother Chao and hold on to Brother Chao's thick thighs and never let go."
"Okay. Oh, Xiao Lele, didn't you say you were going to hold my thigh and not let go, why did you let go again?"
"I'll pack my things first and then I'll hug Brother Chao's lap." Le Yun made a face at the handsome young man and skipped towards the suitcase.
Go to the suitcase, lay the trolley suitcase containing watermelons, cucumbers and tomatoes flat, open the combination lock, open the zipper, and throw the covered clothes and several packages of dry medicinal herbs on the floor.
When the little classmate threw away some things, the handsome boy wiped his forehead with sweat. There were three watermelons in the suitcase, as well as cucumbers and tomatoes. They were carried in mesh bags, so they could be seen clearly at a glance.
"Lele, do you think there are no watermelons in the capital?" Xiao Lele protected the suitcase all the way, which contained only some fruits. She brought half a box of fruits from Province E all the way, this...
He felt a little unable to accept it, and deeply felt that there was a generation gap.
"There is everything in the capital, but I can't find the watermelon I brought." Le Yun took out the net bag and placed it on the floor. She took out a watermelon and touched it. It was still cold, and it did not change due to the long time. It gets hot when placed in a box.
He took the watermelon to the small kitchen to wash it, then took a plate and a knife back to the small living room, put things on the table, killed the melon with the knife, cut it into pieces and put it on the plate, and the two of them sat down to eat.
The handsome boy ate watermelon like a gentleman, with graceful movements and a small bite, eh? His pair of long and narrow phoenix eyes were wide open, it tasted so beautiful!
For the first time, he didn't care about his image. After finishing a piece of melon, he took another piece, ate it cleanly, and then another piece until his stomach was full. He still looked at the melon on the plate reluctantly, and his eyes showed one thing: I still want it. What to do if you eat?
"Brother Chao, this kind of watermelon grows purely wild and is not polluted. You can eat it freely." Noticing the eager look in the young man's eyes, Le Yun very considerately supported him to eat without worry. Brother Chao was not in good health and had eaten it before Everything must be controlled in moderation. The space products she brings have the effect of detoxifying and nourishing the skin. Eating more only has advantages and no disadvantages.
"Okay, I'm starting." Chao Yubo was immediately elated. He gracefully stretched out his hands to hold the watermelon slices, and killed one piece, and then another piece after another. In the blink of an eye, a watermelon was chewed down to only the rind.
After killing a watermelon, the boy wiped the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, his eyes were smiling, and his expression was particularly comfortable and happy.
After a while, there was a growling sound in his stomach, and the beautiful young man's jade face turned crimson with embarrassment. He immediately ran to the bathroom as if he was running away, and immediately fell into a jelly-like state, and he had diarrhea. After one session, I thought I would be exhausted, but unexpectedly I felt refreshed and felt great.
At this time, Chao Yubo also noticed something unusual and was full of doubts. After cleaning the bathroom, he walked back to the small living room and found that Xiao Lele was picking the rough skin of the watermelon rind and the soft flesh of the melon soil. He couldn't help but ask the reason: "Lele, are watermelons and tomatoes the same thing?" Very special?”
"Yeah, Brother Chao has noticed. Brother Chao is so awesome!" Le Yun, who was sitting and waiting, saw the refreshing look on her young brother's face and immediately smiled and arched her eyebrows: "Brother Chao, watermelons, tomatoes and cucumbers are both very special products. It has detoxification function, so I brought it all the way from Province E to the capital, and Brother Chao ate some of it every day to cleanse his intestines.”
"Okay." Chao Yubo was startled at first, and then nodded heavily. Xiao Lele worked hard for his poor body and brought some fruits from all the way. Not to mention that they were edible, just with Lele's heart, Even if it is maggots, he will eat them without fail.
"Brother Chao, are you okay tonight? If you don't have anything, I'll cook later. If something happens, I'll make food early."
"At six fifty in the evening, the student union will meet."
"Then I have to prepare dinner."
Le Yun grabbed the backpack she had thrown aside, took a look at her phone, and saw that it was five o'clock. She quickly sent a message to her father, took the purchased items into the kitchen, and took out the meat and vegetables.
The kitchen is basically complete, including an induction cooker, a rice cooker, a flat-bottomed wok, an electric kettle, six plates, six large bowls for eating noodles or making soup, six small bowls, and chopsticks. Six pairs, two forks and spoons, two baskets for washing vegetables, small basins, trash cans, etc.
There is a space under the kitchen counter where a trash can can be placed for draining water or sold vegetables. There are hooks on the wall for hanging pots. There is also a basket for draining water and a place for hanging pots and brushes by the sink.
The small kitchen is fully functional and has all the preparations.
After classmate Le washed the rice in the kitchen, he boldly fetched water from the space and put it in the pot to cook. He also secretly replaced the pumpkin and cabbage he bought. He happily washed the meat, threw the chicken into the pot, added ingredients, and made soup.
While making soup, peel the watermelon.
Classmate Chao couldn't help, so he moved a chair and sat down, watching Xiao Lele busy, with a smile on her pink face all the time, which made him feel at ease.
While classmate Le was busy preparing dinner, Dad Le, Zhou Qiufeng, and Boss Wu finally returned to Jiudao. They could have arrived at four o'clock, but they encountered a small accident on the highway and were stuck in traffic for a while. A bit late.
Dad Le received three text messages on the way, all from Little Cotton Jacket. The first time told him that the high-speed train had arrived in Beijing and had a safe journey. Brother Chao was picking up the train at the station. The second time Little Cotton Jacket said that it was safe to go to school. The third time Speaking of the dormitory, the accommodation conditions are very good. I will buy a new card tomorrow and show them the dormitory via video.
The girl arrived in Beijing safely, which reassured Dad Le. Good people are rewarded. Little Cotton Jacket helped Chao Handsome once a few years ago. Now that Little Cotton Jacket comes to Beijing and has Chao Handsome taking care of him, it also gives him reassurance.
Boss Wu and Zhou Qiufeng were really relieved to know that Lele arrived safely. Even though they knew that Lele was a good boy who worked independently, they still felt uneasy about letting such a young child go to Beijing alone. My heart dropped to the ground.
Boss Wu sent the couple to the open-air parking lot in Jiudao Township, and then drove back to his residence; Dad Le and Zhou Qiufeng took the tricycle they parked on the street yesterday to return to Meicun.
Grandma Zhou was helping look after the house at Le's house, and she was very happy to see the girl and her son-in-law back. She originally wanted to go home, but Le's father and Zhou Qiufeng left her to have dinner at Le's house, and she happily agreed.
Classmate Le peeled the watermelon, washed the cabbage and pumpkin, cut the meat, chopped the condiments, and added dried mushrooms to the soup. When the rice was cooked and the soup was almost done, pour out the soup and stir-fry.
There is a smoker installed in the small kitchen of the apartment, so the smell of oily smoke will not linger.
Classmate Le fried a pumpkin, a cabbage, a cold watermelon rind slice, a chicken soup, three vegetables and one soup. It was simple and luxurious, and the rich fragrance filled the room with fragrance.
Before eating, the pretty young man was salivating at the smell. When the food was brought to the table, the young man's eyes were bright and his expression was particularly cute.
After setting out the chopsticks and soup bowls, the rice was served. The older one and the younger two sat down. Chao Yubo tasted the rice cooked by Lele for the first time. He waited for the host to open the chopsticks before starting. He ate some mushrooms first and immediately felt refreshed. It was delicious. ! I can’t tell you what it tastes like, but in one sentence, it’s delicious!
He often eats matsutake mushrooms because they can increase immunity. For his sake, his family buys matsutake mushrooms every year to make soup and cook. However, the taste he has eaten is definitely not as good as Lele’s. The dishes Lele makes are crispy and delicious. Fragrant and sweet, not the sweetness added by seasonings, but the natural sweet aroma.
They are all matsutake mushrooms, so why do they taste different?
After eating two slices of mushrooms, the young man felt very happy and said, "Lele, this is incredible, the food you make is so delicious, you will spoil me."
"It's okay if you get spoiled. At worst, Brother Chao will be pickier about what he eats in the future. Anyway, Brother Chao's family has a big business and can afford to raise a little princess."
"Hmph, you despise me again."
"No way, I'm telling the truth."
"My heart is broken into pieces, and I can't even pick them up."
"Crush it, break it. Once it's broken, I'll buy 502 to help you glue it together."
"..."
The two of them ate while talking. They didn't talk about what to eat. They had already forgotten about it. Chao Yubo ate with a smile on his face. He ate a bowl and a half of rice and a bowl of soup in one go. The result of his greed was that he was full.
The boy ate too much. He leaned against the wall and wiped his mouth with a tissue. His eyes were narrowed with joy. It was great that Lele came. He would never be lonely again and could eat and drink openly. Thinking about it, he felt happiness.
The two of them finished the four dishes and one soup, leaving only rice to spare. Classmate Le put away the dishes and took them to the kitchen to clean, then went back to wash the cucumbers and cut them into slices, and put them on the table for after-dinner fruit. They talked about it while chatting. Buy a mini refrigerator.
The weather in the capital is sweltering. If there is no refrigerator, the vegetables you buy will become suffocated overnight or for a day unless you eat them on the same day. In the hottest season, meat will go bad if left for an hour or two; cooked food cannot be eaten in one meal. When finished, even if there is no refrigerator to store, throw it all away.
The young man raised his eyebrows and was beaming with joy. He had only remembered to help buy kitchen supplies before, but he had forgotten about the small refrigerator. Fortunately, it was not too late now, he would just buy one and bring it back tomorrow.
After eating the fruit, it was almost 6:20, and the boy was getting ready to go to work. Classmate Le gave him two tomatoes and asked him to drink them when he was thirsty.
The delicate and beautiful young man carried his small cross-shoulder bag, said goodbye with a smile, and went downstairs in high spirits to rush to the office for a meeting.
Cute beauties, a certain lovesickness has come back from the countryside. I wish you all a prosperous new year and all the best!
