MTL - Back To the Past To Fall In Love-Chapter 11 canteen
After Qiu Yurou finished speaking, she pushed the English book over to Xu Ziran to read.
Only then did Xu Ziran realize that a bunch of words were densely written on the inside of each other's pages.
She said: "I write the words I haven't learned here. If I think I know the content of the teacher's class, I will recite the words in my heart."
Xu Ziran: "..." Too, too exaggerated.
Why didn't I find Qiu Yurou to study every minute and every second like this? Except for the final college entrance examination, the other party's usual grades were not so outstanding.
But if you think about it carefully, if Qiu Yurou was in the mediocre state of high school, it would be as if he had been reborn or transmigrated to the sky, but if Qiu Yurou had been hiding his clumsiness all the time, but if he stopped covering it up later, it would seem Makes more sense.
For the first time, Xu Ziran discovered that she didn't know Qiu Yurou at all.
Qiu Yurou is not only not what she looked like ten years later, but also completely different from ordinary high school girls today.
Probably because Xu Ziran's eyes were too shocked, Qiu Yurou felt embarrassed first.
She lowered her head and took the book back, her ears faintly red.
Xu Ziran quickly reached out and held down the book. She didn't ask Qiu Yurou how she usually studied, but said, "But now the words are in your book, so I can't read them either."
Qiu Yurou seemed to have found someone to communicate with, her eyes flashed with excitement, she fumbled around on the desk, and found a stack of paper the size of a slap.
This piece of paper Xu Ziran looked familiar. She relied on this palm-sized cheat sheet for many exams in college.
But now Qiu Yurou took this out, not for a cheat sheet. She handed the stack of small pieces of paper to Xu Ziran as if she was offering it as a treasure.
If it were an ordinary person, I might not be able to see that Qiu Yurou, who was just smiling, was complacent, but Xu Ziran and Qiu Yurou were good friends in the future. Although Qiu Yurou had changed a lot, her complacent expression was exactly the same as before.
Xu Ziran took it and saw the dense number of words and phrases.
Qiu Yu's brows danced brightly, "If you put this in the page, the teacher will definitely not be able to see it. You can take it out and carry it when you're outside. Isn't it particularly useful?"
Xu Ziran nodded with difficulty.
She admits that she may not be able to achieve this state of learning anytime, anywhere, but it does not prevent her from admiring Qiu Yurou when she finds out that Qiu Yurou in high school is such a person.
To use the popular words of later generations, Qiu Yurou must be a scholar!
The teacher started the class very soon, Xu Ziran couldn't bear to disappoint Qiu Yurou's kindness, and took a few sheets and put them in the pages of the book.
Because she remembered that when the system was in love mode, she could not surpass Qiu Yurou by 100 meters.
It's usually nothing. After all, they are all students. Most of the time, they study in the classroom. Even if the other party occasionally goes out to buy a snack or something, it will not exceed the 30 minutes set by the system.
But what about lunch?
During the two-hour lunch break, most people would eat in the cafeteria, but the cafeteria was so big that it was hard to say where Qiu Yurou would go.
Xu Ziran summed up one class, because it was the last class, and when the bell rang, the whole class was ready to move. Xu Ziran squeezed the time and asked at the last minute, "Qiu Yurou, let's have lunch together at noon."
Qiu Yurou didn't speak, she sat motionless in her seat, and only glanced at Xu Ziran with her eyes.
After about ten seconds later, the bell finally rang for the end of get out of class, and Qiu Yurou said, "No, I made an appointment to eat with others."
Xu Ziran already thought that Qiu Yurou would refuse first, but didn't expect that the reason for the rejection was this. In a daze, Qiu Yurou had already run out of the classroom, and Tian Jiaqi came over to pull her and said, "What are you doing, hurry up and grab a meal."
Canteen robbing can be tragic at any stage of life.
Compared to a class whose last class was a physical education class or an activity class, a class like them that normally ended classes had already lost on the starting line. When Xu Ziran was dragged to the cafeteria by Tian Jiaqi and Meng Shitao, the place to get the dishes was already crowded.
Several cafeterias in Xu Ziran High School do not serve dishes according to the window, but are similar to fast food restaurants. There is an aisle from the entrance to the exit. Students enter from the entrance.
This caused everyone to crowd into a ball for delicious dishes at the most crowded time, which was very scary.
Xu Ziran had a headache at a glance, and when the system reminded her that the 30-minute countdown had already started because she was more than 100 meters away from the target person, she suddenly lost her appetite for food.
She now knows that stats are really useful, so why would she be willing to let it be deducted.
She looked around to see where Qiu Yurou was, and at the same time said to Tian Jiaqi, "Forget it, just wait a while, and buy it when there are fewer people."
Tian Jiaqi was unwilling: "When there are fewer people, all the dishes will be robbed."
She said this, but instead of crowding into the crowd, she looked outside the aisle, her eyes suddenly lit up, and said, "Ye Licheng Ye Licheng, buy me some cauliflower and hot and sour shredded potatoes, and I'll give you the money when I turn around. ."
Before Xu Ziran remembered who Ye Licheng was, he heard Tian Jiaqi say to another person, "Shu Hongwei Shu Hongwei, buy me some plain chicken and fried noodles, and I'll give you the money back."
Then again: "Cheng and Tong Cheng and Tong, help us make three bowls of rice, please, come back and give you the money."
Having said that, the lunch was all over, Tian Jiaqi smiled brightly, grabbed the chopsticks and spoons, and went to occupy the seat first.
Seeing this, Xu Ziran couldn't help but said: "Everyone is lining up, we are all asking others to buy it, it's not good."
Tian Jiaqi smiled and said, "It's not that I don't give them money, it doesn't matter."
Xu Ziran thought for a while: "Well, after all, people have paid for the value of labor."
Tian Jiaqi then said, "They are not unwilling, Cumin, why are you talking so much now?"
Xu Ziran didn't really want to be Rory's long-winded person, not to mention that because she didn't find Qiu Yurou, she felt very low because her ability points were about to be deducted.
At this moment, her eyes lit up, and she saw Qiu Yurou squeezed out of the exit, lining up at the place where the meal card was swiped.
She said quickly, "Jiaqi, sit down first, I, I'll go see if there are any dishes I like."
Tian Jiaqi didn't find it strange: "Oh, okay, but remember not to buy pork."
Xu Ziran didn't think deeply because he was in a hurry to go to Qiu Yurou's side. When he got to Qiu Yurou's side, he thought: Why not pork? Can't remember who among the people they get along with doesn't eat pork?
But she didn't have time to think too much, because Qiu Yurou had already seen her, and then her face suddenly blushed.
The flushed cheeks made it almost as if she saw the object of her crush, but Qiu Yurou's eyes were not the kind of nervousness and shyness that she saw when she saw the object of her crush, but a kind of escapism that she wished she didn't see Xu Ziran.
Xu Ziran was a little puzzled, but he greeted him warmly, and then went to Qiu Yurou's side and said, "What a coincidence, why don't you invite your companions to eat with us."
Qiu Yurou lowered her head and said nothing, not even looking at her.
Xu Zi then realized it, and suddenly thought: "Isn't it possible, that so-called fan friend doesn't exist at all, right?"
Qiu Yurou simply planned to eat alone, and only said that she had a companion to reject her. Now that the lie was broken, she was naturally embarrassed.
Sure enough, after buying the meal, Qiu Yurou looked for a seat by herself, and there was no one with her at all.
Xu Ziran sighed inwardly that this kind of thing was broken, and anyone would feel ashamed, let alone a thin-skinned person like Qiu Yurou.
She stayed on the spot for a while, and finally gritted her teeth, she just kept doing it, grabbed Qiu Yurou's arm and said, "Come to our side, we have a place here."
Qiu Yurou struggled a little, but was restricted by the plate in her hand, so she couldn't move too much, and was pulled to Tian Jiaqi's table.
Tian Jiaqi watched Xu Ziran pull Qiu Yurou over, without saying anything or expressing anything, but Meng Shitao had a hellish expression on her face.
The food has already been served, and the four of them are gathered together, all eating silently, and no one speaks.
Xu Ziran was naturally embarrassed.
But after thinking about it for a long time, she didn't understand why she was so embarrassed. Even if Qiu Yurou and the others were not familiar with them, they shouldn't be in such a state of not saying a word.
After thinking about it, she decided to open up the topic, and she said, "Cough, by the way, Jiaqi, why didn't you let me buy pork just now? Speaking of which, why are you all vegetarian today?"
Tian Jiaqi did not speak.
Xu Ziran could see that the other party should be angry because she pulled Qiu Yurou over.
But how could it be, Tian Jiaqi was not such a stingy person before.
Fortunately, there was still someone to talk to, Meng Shitao answered in order to ease the atmosphere: "SARS, didn't you tell us not to eat pork?"
As soon as Meng Shitao said this, Xu Ziran suddenly realized.
The spring of 2003 was indeed the time when SARS was raging.
Xu Ziran still remembers that the epidemic was like a slap in the face of a triumphant human being by nature. Although there was a cure in just a few months, the kind of pervasiveness that pervaded the human body in those few months. The powerlessness of the whole world is a sense of despair, even if I think about it ten years later, it is still fresh in my memory.
It's February now, and SARS has not yet broken out. At least for this small eastern city where Xu Ziran lives, although the disease sounds scary enough, it's still something on TV and newspapers.
But soon, with the discovery of the first suspected case in the city, the entire city will fall into a panic.
At that time, even a small cold would end up being quarantined. Xu Ziran still remembered that there was a class in the second year of high school where the whole class was quarantined because one person caught a cold.
However, the reborn Xu Ziran will never panic, because she knows that they won't die because of SARS at all, and everyone is scaring themselves.
