Snowflakes were floating in the Tisilan Mountains, and in the blink of an eye, winter had arrived.
Snowflakes like floating catkins fell silently, slowly piling up on the leaves in the forest. The broad leaves were gradually bent, and then the snow piled up and slid down. The leaves bounced slightly, raising bursts of white crystal mist.
Inside the cottage in Maple Leaf Courtyard, a large pot, or more accurately, a large vat, was simmering in the hall.
An orange-yellow flame burned at the bottom of the pot, and bubbles would occasionally emerge and then burst. White steam continued to rise from the ochre-colored pot. Loran Hill kept stirring with a long spoon, and a sweet smell filled the air.
As she stirred slowly, the liquid in the pot gradually became thicker and finally became a semi-solid and semi-liquid state.
It seems to be about the same.
The girl thought to herself, then picked up a large spoon and pressed the liquid in it. It was soft and seemed elastic. She took out the large baking tray prepared in advance and poured the semi-solid maple syrup onto the baking tray.
Then use a spatula to spread the syrup evenly on a half-meter wide baking tray, about an inch thick, and then cut it into small square pieces with a knife. The orange-yellow sugar pieces are like jelly, transparent in color, and exude a sweet aroma.
Loran Hill carefully picked up the baking tray and put it into his ceramic oven, then took out a plate from the cabinet and poured a layer of rich maple syrup on it.
The sap of the maple tree is rich in sugar and has good nutritional value and benefits. It was loved by many people in the previous life. Today, Loran Hill wants to try to make a batch of candy. On the one hand, candy is more convenient to carry, and on the other hand, when going out in the future, maple syrup will easily go bad if left for too long.
Then she placed all three cut baking trays into the primitive earthenware oven, closed the lid, and placed the oven on a rack inside the fireplace, keeping the flames baking.
After she cleaned up the traces in the hall, she sat by the fireplace and waited quietly.
Outside the window of the room, you can still see snowflakes falling. The sky is gradually getting darker. Some snow has accumulated on the window frame and the glass is covered with a layer of white frost, making it difficult to see the situation outside clearly. You can only hear the sound of the wind blowing.
The girl was wearing a white winter dress with fluffy collar, sleeves, and hems. A shawl covered the shoulders, creating a layered look and providing warmth to the shoulders, which are prone to catching cold. The dress was lined with soft, warm fleece, and although a bit thick, it fitted her perfectly.
Actually, this dress was acquired by the Lamia Chamber of Commerce. Before she left, Chelsea, the head maid, forced her to accept it because clothes might not fit someone else if given as a gift, and it would not be good to keep them in the warehouse.
Unexpectedly, it came in handy soon after returning to the Tisilan Mountains.
On the small table in front of the girl were many thick books and some notes next to them, which were prepared for future schooling.
Even with the recommendation letters, Emenas still has to do some tests, such as literacy, history, mathematics, etc. Otherwise, if the students admitted are illiterate, they won't be able to learn many things even if they want to, which will not only waste a lot of time but also put a lot of pressure on the students themselves.
At least you have to pass the test before the school will admit you. In addition, if your grades do not meet a certain standard, you will have to take extra classes in the first grade. It has to be said that mathematics is really a versatile subject. Even in the extraordinary world, this subject is very important.
Lan Lier had told me that to study under a magic instructor, one had to have an excellent math score or higher. Furthermore, each academy had different subject requirements. For example, the Angel academy required a good or higher score in Chinese, the Necromancer academy required an excellent or higher score in math, the War academy had requirements for codex scores, and the Nature academy had requirements for herbal medicine, and so on.
If you want to enter a college, you need to prepare in your first year. In your second year, you will be promoted to a separate college. If you fail to be promoted, you will have to repeat the year and wait until the next year. Many students from remote areas with weak foundations will be stuck at this stage, and some will have to complete two first years before being promoted to the second year.
Although the college has a five-year system, in fact, only a few people can complete their studies and graduate successfully within five years.
When Loran Hill left Hopeland, Lady Filia gave her some books so that she could read them and prepare in advance.
This brought back memories of her high school years, those intense and fulfilling years. If college life was fluffy, then high school was as compact as a rock.
Can you imagine that you have to finish a gel pen refill in 2-3 days? Even the three-minute wait before running in winter requires you to memorize words. The timetable given by the teacher is accurate to what you should do every 5 minutes. It is really all-round and makes every drop of time in life count.
Although some people criticize the rigidity of this system, sometimes it is precisely because of this rigidity that some fairness is maintained. After graduation and work, everyone will find that there are so many ways to play in this world, and one cannot help but sigh that there are all kinds of things in the world.
After collecting his thoughts for a while, Loran Hill picked up the book and took a look. There was basically no problem with the language and writing. As for the mathematics, it was probably about the same as in junior high and high school. After a little review, he could basically remember it.
The main difference between the name of the Natural Herbal Medicine course and Professor Trinasa's is that it's easy to learn once you're familiar with it. The Codex course is a little tricky to learn, as most of it is new information from the past few hundred years, and local customs vary. To fully grasp it, you'll need to study history books alongside it.
The warm firelight illuminated the book. With a soft blanket draped over his legs and leaning back in his chair, Loran Hill felt lazy and a little sleepy as he read the boring entries. Although he was a little bored, thanks to his extraordinary physique and good memory, he still memorized each regulation slowly.
