The cafeteria of Wuzhou Middle School, excluding the damp area, the kitchen, and the food serving area on the first floor, is only about 400 to 500 square meters of actual dining space. In this 400 to 500 square meters of space, there are about 70 to 80 four-person dining tables.
If staggered meal times are not taken into account, the first floor of the cafeteria can only accommodate about 300 to 400 teachers and students dining at the same time.
Even if we exclude the teachers and students who live locally, there are still a considerable number of teachers and students who cannot eat during the peak meal times. This has led to the opening of several fast food or spicy hot pot, fried rice and fried noodles businesses outside the school to attract business.
This has also led to some teachers and students, as well as some other teachers and students, who are tired of eating in the cafeteria and want to change their taste, buying meals outside the school.
After leaving the gate of Wuzhou Middle School, walk north along the school wall until you reach the end, where there is a residential building. A windbreak was built outside the gate of the residential building, and inside the windbreak were several simple tables and chairs, which were already full of students who came to eat.
There were students coming in and out of the house. A middle-aged woman wearing an apron and holding a rag was cleaning up everywhere.
"Uncle Chen! Give me some fried rice!" A student walked in, went to a small window, and shouted to a middle-aged man in the kitchen.
"Okay! Got it!" Uncle Chen, who was busy in the kitchen, responded and brought a bowl of fried noodles to the window. "The fried noodles with egg and ham are ready! Come and serve it!"
"Hey, hello! Here I come!" A boy hurried forward, went to the window, took a serving of hot fried noodles with eggs and ham back to his seat, and began to enjoy it.
"Uncle Chen, when will my green pepper and shredded pork rice be ready?" a boy couldn't help but urge.
"Right away, right away, don't worry, there's another stir-fry ahead of you!"
"Don't forget my fried rice, Uncle Chen!"
"I can't forget it! I can't forget it! Wait a minute, there's no rush for you!"

...
The lively atmosphere in the outer room did not affect Li Yangyang, Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian in the inner room at all.
The three of them occupied a small table alone, on which was placed a plate of scrambled eggs with cucumbers, a plate of stir-fried green peppers, a plate of spicy and sour shredded potatoes, and a large bowl of seaweed egg soup.
"Come on! Let's have a drink together!" Li Yangyang took the lead in raising a cheap plastic cup filled with beer and said to Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian who were sitting across the table.
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian, who were concentrating on eating the food in their bowls, heard the suggestion of the leader Li Yangyang, and hurriedly put down their chopsticks, picked up the wine glasses beside the bowls, and shouted incoherently.
"Ha!!!!" A glass of beer at room temperature seemed a little too cold in December, and it stimulated the three people's stomachs to contract.
"It feels so good!!!" Pan Minqiang put down his empty glass, filled it up, and smiled flatteringly at Li Yangyang across from him, "It has to be my brother Yang again, this time..."
Pan Minqiang was about to speak, but immediately looked around vigilantly. He felt relieved when he found that the other students at the tables next to him were just concentrating on eating their meals and chatting with familiar classmates, and no one was paying attention to their table.
But Pan Minqiang finally lowered his voice and said with a smile, "This time it's all thanks to Brother Yang's good idea! I took a special look at the test paper handed out. Hey! It's exactly the same as the one we bought!"
Lu Qian swallowed the shredded potatoes he had just eaten and also laughed and said, "Hehe, that's right, we really had a good time this time! Not only were the answers reliable, but especially those two stupid invigilators, hehe, they didn't care about us at all and let us copy to our heart's content!"
"That's right, that's right!" Pan Minqiang continued to speak immediately after Lu Qian's words, "Those two stupid invigilators didn't care about us at all! It was so fucking great! It would have been great if they were the ones in the afternoon!"
"Hehe, that's because the answers I bought don't have essay examples, otherwise I think I could write better!"
"You've lost your mind!" Li Yangyang scolded Pan Minqiang, "There's no answer to the composition! Even if there is, do you dare to copy it? If you copy it, wouldn't it be telling others that we bought the answer?"
Pan Minqiang was not angry after being scolded by Li Yangyang. He smiled and said, "Hey, I'm just kidding, Brother Yang! My brain is not as good as you think!"
"That's right! Brother Yang has a good brain!" Lu Qian continued to chime in.
After being complimented by Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian, Li Yangyang looked very proud. He picked up the beer in the glass, took a sip and put it down. Then he slowly picked up the chopsticks and reached out to the plate of scrambled eggs with cucumber. He picked up a piece of the scrambled eggs with chopsticks and slowly chewed the egg.
"Tsk, scrambled eggs with cucumber. I've never eaten it before coming to Wuzhou Middle School. I used to think that cucumbers could be eaten directly or used as a cold dish," Li Yangyang did not talk about the topic between the two of them, but discussed the scrambled eggs with Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian.
"When I first saw this dish, I was stunned. I wondered if such a dark dish could be developed? It always gave me the illusion that 'Is it going to kill me?' However, after eating it a few more times, I actually felt that this dish was quite delicious."
Li Yangyang suddenly talked about the cucumber fried eggs in front of him for no apparent reason, which made Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian a little confused. But after hearing what their eldest brother said, Pan Minqiang and Lu Qian still agreed with a smile.
"Haha, indeed. I couldn't eat this dish well when I first came here! Later I got used to it, and hey! You know what, it tastes better and better the more I eat it!" After Lu Qian finished speaking, as if to confirm his statement to the other two, he deliberately picked up a piece of cucumber with chopsticks and began to chew it carefully.
"Haha, that's you, Old Lu. Oh yes, and Brother Yang! Hehe, I'm not used to eating this stuff! I'll just eat eggs!" Pan Minqiang picked up an egg with chopsticks and laughed.
Li Yangyang glanced at Pan Minqiang and then smiled, "It's not good to be picky about food, Old Pan. Eat more fruits and vegetables, it's good for your health!"
After saying that, Li Yangyang didn't wait for Pan Minqiang to reply, and changed the subject again, "There's nothing we can do about Chinese, it's really hard to copy. But math will be easier in the afternoon!"
"A dozen or so multiple-choice questions can be answered quickly, and a few big questions won't take much time to copy the answers!"
At this point, Li Yangyang warned the two younger brothers earnestly, "So for the math test this afternoon, you two must hand in your papers slowly. Don't just copy and paste quickly and hand them in. That will clearly tell the teacher that there is something wrong with our papers!"
Hearing this, Pan Minqiang patted his chest and said, "Brother Yang, don't worry! Do we look like the kind of people who are so heartless?"
