Chapter 150 Please Advise (Part 2)
"Wuning, let's go eat!" A girl with a ponytail came to Wuning. She was wearing a white sportswear.
This sportswear looks simple, but the collar and cuffs are specially designed. It is not as loose as other sportswear, and at the same time it is comfortable.
Wu Ning didn't know it in the past, but now she knows that this outfit looks very similar to hers, but is ten or even twenty times more expensive than hers.
"I brought some food."
"It's really hard for you to bring your own lunch every day. The food you bring needs to be heated up. Come with us to the cafeteria to eat." The girl advised again.
"No, no need, it's already heated up..." She lowered her head and took out her lunch box. The girl finally stopped talking, shook her head, and skipped away with the other classmates.
Soon, the classroom was empty. Wu Ning opened her lunchbox, revealing large chunks of beef. She carefully set them aside and slowly ate the rice and carrots beneath them.
This is a cram school for aristocrats - of course, the school is not called this name, but in Wu Ning's heart, it is definitely aristocratic.
The tuition fee was very expensive, which was beyond her imagination.
Bian Dong also had cram schools and cram schools. Although she had never attended, she knew the general situation: it cost around 10,000 yuan a year. This was already quite a lot, after all, the average salary for Bian Dong was only a little over 1,000 yuan.
Tutoring classes are cheaper, three times a week, six thousand a year.
She had originally thought that even if the tuition in the capital was a bit more expensive, it would be at most 20,000 or 30,000... not more! But she had no idea that it would cost 50,000! And only for half a semester!
After she knew this number, the first thing she thought of was not to pay the difference, but Yang Zheng had already paid the money.
"Don't worry, you can definitely earn 50,000 yuan!" Yang Zheng said this to her at the time, and she had no confidence at all.
But since Yang Zheng had made the decision, she couldn't object.
The students here are all very rich.
They can eat out every day without any scruples, drink milk tea and coffee, and they don't care about a cup of coffee costing 20 yuan!
In Bian Dong, twenty yuan can buy five meals! A bowl of noodles or rice noodles costs three yuan, and you can still buy mineral water for one yuan.
The cafeteria here is not that exaggerated, but a meal with both meat and vegetables still costs more than ten yuan, so as soon as Wu Ning knew about it, he decided to bring his own lunch.
She brought plain noodles on the first day.
Just cook the noodles, stir-fry them, and sprinkle some chopped green onions on them. After all, it is a bento, and it is not easy to carry soup with it. As a result, people saw it and said: "Is this all you eat?"
The other party had no ill intentions, but was full of surprise. In a panic, she could only quickly say that she had eaten too much last night and had no appetite.
The other party nodded in understanding.
The next day, she cut the braised beef into two pieces and brought them over.
Everyone knew that she was with Yang Zheng, and she couldn't lose face for Yang Zheng.
"I like to bring my own food, too." Suddenly, a man sat down next to her. He was a very handsome young man, and his surname seemed to be Li.
She wasn't too sure, after all, she had only been here a few days.
Hearing this, she smiled.
"You don't know my name yet, I'm Li Jiaxiang." The boy said, and took out a lunch box. When he opened it, there was just simple fried rice.
There were eggs, sausage, and corn kernels, but it was just fried rice.
Tuition fees are expensive, and there are reasons for that.
Their classroom also had a small kitchen with a water dispenser and a microwave. Li Jiaxiang took the rice to the kitchen, heated it in the microwave for a few minutes, and then brought it out.
"Would you like some tea?" he asked, placing a cup of brewed tea next to Wu Ning. Wu Ning was a little panicked, and felt a little at a loss as he thanked him.
"I see you never drink coffee, so I made you some tea. It's black tea, okay? It's not the time to drink green tea at this time of year, and most green tea these days is aged."
Wu Ning nodded, somewhat at a loss for words.
In fact, she was a little happy when she saw Li Jiaxiang's lunch box just now. Although it was a bit nonsensical, it gave her a feeling that she was not an outlier in this school. But now, she knows that they are still not from the same world.
She knew about black tea and green tea, but that was all. As for when these teas should be drunk, she had no idea, let alone aged tea.
Is old tea not good? It seems that all the tea they buy is old tea.
"Master Yang, do you like tea?"
Wu Ning was startled. Li Jiaxiang smiled and said, "I'm just asking casually. If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me."
Wu Ning lowered his head. Does Yang Zheng like drinking tea?
Yang Zheng seemed uncritical of everything. She praised everything she cooked. Pancakes were delicious, as were beef noodles, braised dishes, and even fried rice.
But, is it really delicious?
Do you really think it tastes good?
Yang Zheng, what haven't you eaten?
Yesterday, Yang Zheng attended a banquet that only important people would attend.
"St. John is here." This is what Yang Zheng said yesterday when he was lazily lying on the sofa after returning home.
"St. John" She felt a little regretful. They had learned a little about Western history, and this St. John seemed to be a very remarkable person.
"He's just a grandmaster, but you insist on adding the word saint. What? Are you going to become an immortal?" Yang Zheng's tone was very impolite. She couldn't respond and felt empty.
Yang Zheng didn't think much of St. John, she...
No, no, no, she shouldn't think like that, and Yang Zheng wouldn't think like that either! But, she is actually a burden to Yang Zheng.
“Don’t you like beef?”
Suddenly, she heard another voice in her ear. When she came to her senses, she saw Li Jiaxiang looking at her with a puzzled expression. She quickly shook her head: "No, no."
As she said this, she took a bite of beef. The weather was not hot now, and she had wanted to keep the beef for another day so that there would still be beef when she opened her lunch box tomorrow, but since someone had told her about it, she couldn't help but eat it.
"I thought you weren't going to eat it, and I was wondering why the nanny prepared this for you if you weren't going to eat it..."
Wu Ning responded vaguely.
The students here all have nannies!
For lunch, Wu Ning ate both pieces of beef.
I still study in the afternoon.
The cram school didn't have evening self-study classes; classes ended at six, which was different from what Wu Ning knew. Perhaps Bian Dong's students were just used to staying up late every day. A classmate invited her to dinner, but she declined again. Yang Zheng gave her some money, telling her to buy things for the family, but she knew it was just pocket money.
But she was obviously unable to move.
On the way back, she wanted to take the bus. The bus in the capital was not expensive. It only cost one yuan to travel half of the city. The half of the city here was almost equivalent to traveling from Biandong to the provincial capital.
Yang Zheng's home wasn't far from the cram school, but it was still two stops away. In Biandong, two stops wouldn't be more than two kilometers, but here, it was almost five kilometers, which was still considered close.
It takes less than 20 minutes by bus and less than half an hour by bike, which is considered a short distance by many people who come here to work. However, it still takes her 40 minutes to walk.
In the past she would take the bus, but here, she doesn't, she's afraid of being seen.
She had no money, but she was redundant at home. She was able to live her current life because of Yang Zheng's sympathy. She couldn't... couldn't lose face!
"I noticed two days ago that you were walking this way too."
A familiar voice sounded, and she turned around and saw Li Jiaxiang: "Do you live in Wancheng too?"
She was startled and wanted to deny it, but she couldn't deny it, so she nodded. Li Jiaxiang laughed again: "That's a coincidence, it's the same in our family! How did you get here?"
"I, I'll walk..."
Li Jiaxiang nodded: "I'm riding a bicycle, how about I take you?"
Wu Ning knew he rode a bicycle without him having to tell him—he was pushing one at the moment. In this respect, there seemed to be no difference between Didu and Bian Dong, but the difference was still significant.
In Bian Dong, many of her classmates' bicycles were discarded by their parents or relatives. Her first bicycle was given to her by her second aunt as a replacement. She had a classmate, a girl who was not even as tall as her, but she rode a bicycle that her father didn't want anymore.
Of course, there were also those that were bought specifically for this purpose, but they were only worth two or three hundred yuan at most. But here, these bikes were beyond her imagination. She hadn't known this before, but only learned yesterday from listening to a classmate chatting next to her that a single bike, a bicycle, could cost over a hundred thousand yuan!
She could never imagine how a bicycle could cost over 100,000 yuan, but it seemed like that was the case!
She couldn't bring shame to Yang Zheng.
"Wuning" Li Jiaxiang spoke again, and she shook her head, "No, no need."
Li Jiaxiang looked at her, and she said again: "Really, there's no need."
"Okay then." Li Jiaxiang smiled and got on his bicycle. "Then I'll be leaving first."
He said, waving his hand, and she quickly waved back.
It was already seven o'clock when Wu Ning walked home, and Yang Zheng had not returned yet. She knew that Yang Zheng had said that some Western group had come, and she had not been very free recently.
She put down her schoolbag and went to the kitchen. She originally wanted to wash the dishes, but when she got to the sink, she realized there was a dishwasher.
dishwasher!
It was the first time she knew there were things specifically for washing dishes.
All the dishes she put in that morning had been washed. She took them out one by one and put them in the disinfection cabinet - these were provided by the house itself. She didn't know whether they were provided by the people in Zhongzhou Province or if the house itself came with these. They were all there when they moved in.
There is also a water dispenser and a coffee machine.
She made herself a cup of coffee - which Yang Zheng bought.
"You've been studying hard lately and you might need this to refresh yourself. I happen to have a coffee machine at home." She had never drunk coffee before and had never been very interested in it, but today, she made herself a cup.
She didn't turn on the lights, but the outside was brightly lit. Yang Zheng's house had a very good view. Below was the community's own garden, outside was a city park, and outside was the main road. She could see the outside world at a glance.
It was a completely different world, just like where she was now, it didn't belong to her.
