But Gao Xuewei is not unsocial. She knows several fellow villagers and goes out with them when she has nothing to do. She just hates spending a long time with strangers.
Xiang Baichuan finally managed to organize this team building. Everyone in his class knew how to have fun, and they came up with a travel route on their own without the need for the class monitor to plan.
Originally, several people in the class didn't want to go, but after hearing their route, they thought it would be fun, so in the end, the entire class went out.
Tian Tian didn't want to go out. To be honest, she spent a lot of money this month. She also thought that she should concentrate on studying at school. In fact, she just didn't want to go out and spend money.
As a class leader, she had to go and help other class committee members organize the students to prevent anyone from getting lost or walking too slowly.
They went out at 8am for the whole day, climbing mountains, rowing boats, visiting parks, and having picnics, and they never stopped to rest until they returned to the dormitory at around 5pm.
It was fun, and the trip made them more familiar with each other, but it was too tiring, and Tian Tian didn't want to do it again next time.
Liang Dongqing actually liked this kind of activity very much. After returning, she was still chattering and urging Tian Tian and Xiang Baichuan to ask when the next one would be organized.
"Please forgive me!" Tian Tian wailed.
"Can you give us a break? If it happens again, my life will be taken away by the King of Hell!" Tian Tian wailed. Liang Dongqing and the others could just go out and have fun, but Tian Tian and other class leaders had to check if anyone was missing or left behind. They also had to calculate the money they paid, so as not to underpay them.
"It would be good if we could do this kind of thing once a semester. It would be too tiring if we do it more often!" Chen Wanqing also agreed with what Tian Tian said. Although she had a lot of fun today, she was indeed very tired after walking all day.
Besides, it costs a lot of money to go out and play. It is okay to go out once a semester, but if she goes out to play every month, she will not have enough money.
Except for Liang Dongqing who is relatively active, the rest of the people in their dormitory are relatively introverted and quiet, and they all feel a little overwhelmed by today's schedule.
After hearing everyone say this, Liang Dongqing had no choice but to stop mentioning this matter.
In the following days, everyone attended classes and studied as usual, and occasionally participated in social activities. During this period, the school was not stable and many things happened. For example, it was revealed that some of the new students had replaced others to go to college.
There were also people who abandoned their husbands, wives, and children and came to the school to cause trouble. The school was overwhelmed just dealing with these incidents every day.
Tian Tian and the others would watch the fun at first, but later they became numb.
There are only so many people who have the courage to come to the school, and how many people do not have the courage and are kept in the dark.
How lucky are those who know that they have been replaced and can find their place? How many people don’t know that their lives have been stolen by others even when they are old.
It’s a pity that the current household registration system is imperfect and there is no way to conduct a large-scale investigation to determine how many people have been replaced.
But this kind of thing is not something they can solve. After hearing about this, everyone feels sorry for these people who are so unfortunate, but are also glad that this kind of thing has not happened to them, so they will not think too much about these things.
As time passed, the weather became colder and colder, and the stove started to burn in the dormitory.
Tian Tian and her friends had been looking forward to this day for a long time. On the first day after lighting the stove, they went to the market to buy some vegetables. Qin Yu also brought some seasonings from home and prepared to cook a meal on the stove.
They brought back some rice from the cafeteria in advance. Tian Tian prepared to make some mushroom and meat sauce fried rice, while the others prepared to make fried meat with chili peppers, braised rice with bacon, and fried potatoes.
Even Qin Yu was going to fry a fish, which she brought from home. In order to have this meal, she was even going to stay at school tonight.
As for the pot for cooking, they planned to use their own lunch boxes. The aluminum lunch boxes have good thermal conductivity and can barely be used as pots.
They started preparing for this meal in the afternoon.
Cooking inevitably produces fumes, so they opened all the windows in the dormitory in the middle of winter. Because the place was small, they could only cook one by one. They worked from noon to night and finally prepared a table of food.
The food here really brings together dishes from all over the world, including those from Hunan, Sichuan, Shandong, and even Liaoning.
"It smells so good! Let's eat quickly, I can't wait!" Tian Tian said impatiently.
"I can finally have a good bacon meal! The bacon I had before was always cut dry and tasted bad if it wasn't fried."
"I want to eat fried pork with chili peppers, but the chili peppers in our school are not spicy at all, they are sweet!"
"Eat quickly, or the food will get cold soon!" Gao Xuewei closed the window and urged everyone to eat quickly.
Everyone quickly cleaned up the house and went down to eat. The lunch boxes were used to hold fried rice and vegetables, so they could only use the lunch box lids to hold food.
"This fried rice is really delicious when fried with mushroom meat sauce. It's sweet and fresh!"
Tian Tian specially saved a portion of this mushroom meat sauce, waiting to use it to make fried rice when she is able to cook.
"If you like it, I'll ask my grandma to make some more when I get home and bring it to you next time," said Tian Tian.
"No need. Pork is not easy to prepare. It's rare for you to have some pork, so just keep it for yourselves." Chen Wanqing refused.
"Or we can exchange addresses, and when we get home I'll send you bacon, and you'll send me mushroom pork sauce?"
"That's fine, but I don't know how many pigs our team will kill this year. And the mushrooms are not freshly picked, but dried in the fall. The taste may be very different."
"That's okay! In fact, the mushroom sauce at my place is also very delicious. I'll go back and ask my mom if I can make it for you. I'll bring it over for you to try next time."
For example, Chen Wanqing and Liang Dongqing both prefer spicy food. Although Tian Tian’s sauce is fragrant, it is not really to their taste.
"This bacon is delicious after being fried. It turns out this is its taste. It is really different from eating it cold." Tian Tian took a bite of the bacon and was amazed by the taste.
She had always felt that bacon had a stinky smell and couldn't get used to it at all.
