Two roast ducks, sweet and sour spare ribs, chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised pork, steamed sea fish, scrambled eggs, fried potatoes and cabbage, steamed buns and rice.
“Too much, too much.”
Bai Lianshan and the others felt embarrassed when they saw such a sumptuous meal.
"Not much. We get eggs and sea fish every day here, and the mushrooms are brought back from the production team. If you come to Jing City, you must try the famous roast duck here, otherwise it's a wasted trip."
"Yes, in a few days, when Jianmin's child recovers and is discharged from the hospital, I will buy him a few to try. I hope he can apply for university and come to Beijing later."
"Uncle Shan, the mushrooms over here are still the best. The stewed chicken is very fragrant."
"We've really cost you a lot of money this time."
"What's the big deal? Huaiyuan and I have high salaries, so we can provide you with enough food for a month."
"Uncle Shan, our university is free and food is provided. Dabao and Xiaobao don't spend much money on their studies either. Don't worry, it won't cost much here."
"Yes, settle down and feel at ease. We are all family."
…
Worried that Bai Lianshan and the others would feel uncomfortable, the Su family members began to persuade them one by one. In fact, no one knew that the rice, flour, vegetables, eggs, and egg roots of the Su family did not cost any money, but all came from Qiao Jiuru's space.
Moreover, Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan each earn about one hundred to one hundred and forty yuan a month. One person's salary can support a whole family, making them a high-income earner in this era.
Su Ze and Zhou Wanwan's income was much higher, but it was still around one hundred to one hundred and ten yuan, which was more than twice that of an ordinary person.
The four members of the Su family received a total of about 410 yuan in salary each month for their classes. In fact, their monthly living expenses were less than 50 yuan, and the rest was saved.
When Bai Lianshan and the others learned that the salary of a university professor was so high, they were all shocked. Maybe only those who hold positions in the team can get such a salary?!
However, they breathed a sigh of relief after learning that their arrival really did not bring any trouble to the Su family.
After eating, he went to a nearby bathhouse under the leadership of Su Huaiyuan to take a bath, and was then brought back to rest.
When only the people from their production team were left in the house, everyone lay comfortably on their beds, feeling much more relaxed.
"Captain, it turns out we still have to have someone in Beijing to handle and think through everything for us."
"Yes, this place is much better than a guesthouse. It's big, clean, and safe."
"Yeah, this is the school cafeteria and the bathhouse. It's great to be able to work here."
"Nonsense, everyone knows that. After all, not everyone can be Professor 껗's teacher, especially professors and teachers in Jing City."
"When we go back, we must make sure our children study hard and get into Beijing, so that they can attend classes in the city in the future."
"If I hadn't come out for this trip, I wouldn't have thought the outside world was like this. No wonder those educated youth from the city in our production team were so desperate.
I want to go back to the city, but the city is nothing compared to our place."
"Of course not. You're not only a little bit better, you're much better."
"I dare not think about it. I really dare not think about it."
…
It was his first time in Beijing, his first time living in such a nice house, and also in the most famous university in the country. Not only Bai Lianshan couldn't sleep, but no one else could either.
They were all very excited. All their previous worries disappeared in the afternoon when the professors from Beijing City Hospital said that the disease could be cured. They were relieved.
"Okay, don't say that. Let's go to bed early and go get Su Ze and Bai Jianmin to replace them tomorrow."
Bai Lianshan was also very uneasy today. Being taken around by Su Huaiyuan and Qiao Jiuru for a whole day really made him realize how important knowledge and culture are.
He had met university professors, hospital directors, and medical professors all day, and just standing in front of them felt like being from two different worlds. Now living in the university's residential compound, Bai Lianshan was deeply shocked.
As the old saying goes, a phoenix in trouble is still a phoenix. Like the Su family who were sent down before, different is different.
