Chapter 230: Mr. Ruan, can you wait for me to finish speaking?



"Wow, you can even guess this? What's wrong with your brains? Am I the dumbest one in the dormitory?"

Li Yuqin widened her eyes, feeling incredible.

"Don't worry, I'm here with you!" Xu Erfeng comforted her.

"That's good. I'd be embarrassed if I were the only fool."

Li Yuqin breathed a sigh of relief and continued to talk about her family: "My brother is now a dancer in the city's song and dance troupe. He dances very well and has even performed abroad. There are only two boys in my family, and neither of them listens to my father. In the end, I had no choice.

My dad could only pass on his skills to me, and he always looked down on me, saying I was not good at this or that. I got angry at him and said if he kept saying I was not good enough, I would not learn this crap anymore. My dad never said anything to me again after that."

Li Yuqin was very proud when she said this, but you can tell that she really loves the job of electrician, otherwise she wouldn't have passed the Level 4 certificate at such a young age, and she wouldn't have been recommended by the factory to go to university.

"You're amazing! You're a level 4 electrician!"

Xu Erfeng gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely.

"It's just average. I just have decent talent. Plus, my master is my father, so if I don't understand something, I have someone to ask." Li Yuqin said modestly.

"That depends on how good you are. Can I ask you if I don't understand something in my studies in the future?" Xu Erfeng asked.

"Okay, let's discuss it together. Actually, I know a little bit about practice, but not theoretical knowledge."

Li Yuqin had a very good personality. She did not look down on Xu Erfeng for being a country girl and was very easy-going.

At around three or four in the afternoon, the other two people from the dormitory also arrived.

He Aihong, a native of Zhucheng, was wearing a green uniform, a leather belt around her waist, and had short hair cut to her ears, looking particularly energetic.

The way she dressed and her hyperthyroid temperament immediately reminded Ruan Qiqi of the people in the Tail-Cutting Society. Sure enough, when He Aihong introduced herself, she said that she was a member of the Tail-Cutting Society.

Xu Erfeng and the others were silent and smiled politely.

Even Li Yuqin, who loves making friends, has no intention of making friends with He Aihong, and her attitude is clearly keeping her distance.

The other person who lived on the upper bunk of He Aihong was called Shangguan Qing. He was tall and thin, dressed in a military uniform, and looked heroic but a little cold. After introducing himself, he started making the bed without saying another word.

Shangguan Qing's powerful aura made Xu Erfeng and Li Yuqin afraid to approach him. They didn't even dare to chat with him. The dormitory suddenly became very quiet.

By the time Shangguan Qing made the bed, it was almost five o'clock. Xu Erfeng and Li Yuqin prepared to go to the cafeteria for dinner, and they also called Ruan Qiqi and Zheng Jingyun. He Aihong and Shangguan Qing did not dare to call them.

"Wait a minute, it's still early for dinner, I have something to deal with first!"

He Aihong called them and her words had a strong sense of officialdom.

"What's up?"

Xu Erfeng and Li Yuqin both walked to the door and had to go back.

He Aihong was very satisfied with their obedience, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Ruan Qiqi also got out of bed and took out the meal ticket from the drawer.

"It is a rare fate that we can get together to study together. It is also a test given to us by the organization. We will live together for two years in the future. Two years is not a short time. There is no order without rules. Although our dormitory is small, it is also a collective. As a collective, there must be someone to manage it, otherwise it will be a mess..."

He Aihong must like giving speeches very much. All she said were empty words and she waved her fist after every sentence, which moved her so much.

Xu Erfeng and Li Yuqin listened patiently and did not dare to interrupt.

Ruan Qiqi interrupted He Aihong with a lunch box and meal ticket, "You want to elect a dormitory leader, right?"

He Aihong had just raised her fist and was feeling very emotional, but before she could finish what she had prepared to say, she was interrupted. Her emotions were stuck in the middle, neither going up nor down, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, Ruan, can you wait for me to finish?"

He Aihong accused unhappily.

"Then can you wait until we finish eating? You are wasting our precious meal time. Man is made of iron and food is made of steel. The Quotations from Confucius also say that the body is the capital of revolution. Food is the most important thing in the world, so we have to go eat now!"

Ruan Qiqi's golden quotes left He Aihong speechless. She couldn't refute a single word and could only watch Ruan Qiqi leave.

“Eat first!”

Shangguan Qing said lightly, holding the lunch box and following Ruan Qiqi.

Xu Erfeng and Li Yuqin exchanged glances and followed him out, followed by Zheng Jingyun, who reminded He Aihong: "If you go too late, the delicious food in the cafeteria will be gone."

He Aihong gritted her teeth, took her lunch box and went to eat.

But she was determined to become the dormitory head, and she also wanted to be a class leader.

The food in the cafeteria is divided into four grades: A, B, C, and D. Grade A dishes cost 1.2 cents per portion, and are hard dishes like braised pork. Grade B dishes cost 8 cents per portion, and are very oily and contain meat, such as fried meatballs and stuffed tofu.

Dish C only costs five cents, it is stewed meat slices with cabbage, there is more vegetables than meat, the taste is not good, but there is meat.

2 cents for diced vegetables, stir-fried cabbage and stir-fried shredded potatoes are the most popular dishes among poor students.

The cafeteria also provides free soup, usually seaweed egg drop soup. Some poor students cannot even afford vegetables, so they just have 4 taels of rice and some soup to make do with their meal.

Ruan Qiqi ordered a portion of braised pork, a portion of vegetables, and three taels of rice.

Shangguan Qing and Li Yuqin also ordered first-class dishes, and Xu Erfeng ordered a second-class dish, Mapo Tofu, which had meat and a lot of oil in it and went very well with rice.

The four of them sat at the same table. Zheng Jingyun and He Aihong sat next to them. They sat facing each other and neither of them spoke.

“The braised pork is delicious.”

Ruan Qiqi ate a piece of braised pork, which was top-quality pork belly, fatty but not greasy, and tasted better than the one in a small pot.

She always felt that braised pork tasted better when cooked in a big pot, and the braised pork made at home was not as delicious as the one in the cafeteria.

"It tastes better than what I cook. My husband said even pigs wouldn't eat the food I cook." Jin Yuqin said with a smile.

"You're married too?"

Xu Erfeng was a little surprised. Li Yuqin was so cheerful and lively. She thought she was not married.

"I'm 25 now, I have two children, and my eldest is in kindergarten."

Li Yuqin took a big bite of the braised pork, and her expression softened a lot when she talked about her children.

"Now that you're at school, who's going to take care of the kids?"

"My parents-in-law and my parents help, and we all live in the same building, which is quite convenient."

Li Yuqin talked about the story of her and her husband. Her husband was a technician in the factory. The parents of both parties knew each other, and they grew up together, lived in the same building, were classmates in elementary school and middle school, and when they grew up they worked in the same company, so it was natural for them to be together.

"You two are childhood sweethearts!" Xu Erfeng said enviously.

"What do you mean childhood sweethearts? We have been sworn enemies since we were little. When I was little, I never dreamed that I would marry him in the future. I hated him so much when I was little. He always pulled my hair in class. It was so annoying."

"That's because he wants to get your attention. He has liked you since he was a kid."

Ruan Qiqi couldn't help but say that Li Yuqin looked like an unmarried girl even after getting married and having children, and it was obvious that her husband loved her very much.

"That's what he said too. Qiqi, you're really smart. You know everything."

Li Yuqin admired her even more and felt that there was nothing she didn't know.

Ruan Qiqi smiled reservedly, feeling very pleased.

Shangguan Qing didn't say a word the whole time. She had a big appetite and ordered six taels of rice and two servings of braised pork. She ate very quickly. Ruan Qiqi and the others had only eaten half of them when she finished.

She didn't leave either. She still sat there listening to Ruan Qiqi and the others talking. After they finished eating, they went to wash the dishes together.

Because before coming to school, her leader told her that she should get along well with her classmates and not keep to herself.

She actually doesn't like to be sociable, but her leader threatens her that if she doesn't get along well with her classmates, she will not be allowed to carry out tasks. Damn, he uses this to threaten her, and it always works!
