It was summer vacation and there were only a few people scattered around the campus.
As the best university in Beijing, many parents and students come to visit. Even though the entrance fee is ten yuan, there are still many people flocking to visit.
The school would be happy to see this happen if it could earn some extra money.
Students at the University of Tokyo are also accustomed to seeing unfamiliar faces around them from time to time. When they saw such a beautiful girl like Li Xiujun coming up to ask about the location of the teaching office, they also kindly asked if they could help lead the way.
Li Xiujun smiled and refused.
Walking on Yuanpei Road, the intertwined branches on both sides stretch out with spots of light, the greenery grows, and they collide and rustle in the wind.
The rising sun fell through the gap, and the avenue that should have been shaded became wider. Fortunately, there was a breeze, and the scorching sun was softened.
Following the direction pointed by the students, she quickly found the Academic Affairs Office.
There were two knocks, and a sharp voice came from inside the door: "Come in."
Li Xiujun turned the handle and closed the door as she entered. She lowered her head in awe and said, "Hello, teacher. I'm Li Xiujun, here to register."
Most of the professors were on vacation, and Lin Xia was forced to stay in the office because she was busy supervising experiments with several doctoral students. Unexpectedly, the kid from the Gu family came to ask for a favor a few days ago.
Gu Qingming was considered the smartest student she had ever taught. Even after so many years of graduation, she still often mentioned this to undermine the self-confidence of those so-called top students.
It was rare to see him asking for help from others, so Lin Xia also felt fond of this girl.
His expression became particularly gentle, and he even brewed a cup of West Lake Longjing tea that had not been opened for a long time.
"Xiujun, right? That jerk Jian Guochao should have told you about the hours and salary, right? You'll be mainly responsible for sorting the returned books in the library. The school will receive another batch every week, and you can sort this batch when the library closes on Monday."
"Just help students find books and keep track of borrowing and returning books. Here are the library keys and registration book. Take them."
Li Xiujun took it with both hands in fear and began to read it.
If those doctoral students saw that the former Nun Miejue still had such a gentle face, they would probably be scared out of their wits.
Lin Xia was busy sorting out the information, so she didn't continue the small talk: "You go first. If you encounter any difficulties, you can always come and ask me."
"Yes, thank you, teacher."
Holding the things, Li Xiujun bowed and closed the door quietly.
Lin Xia glanced at her back and was extremely satisfied.
Such a pretty and polite girl, I don't know where Qingming found her. If anyone can learn half of it, he won't have to worry about it.
Holding the still somewhat warm keychain, Li Xiujun didn't expect things to go so smoothly. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. Her steps became lighter, and finally she simply trotted to the library.
The previous librarian was an old lady in her eighties. She had to give up this well-paid job because she had to take care of her grandchildren.
People are in high spirits when they have a happy event. Before leaving, he gave his successor Li Xiujun a bag of wedding candy.
They say that when you are in a good mood, everything goes smoothly.
It took her only two hours to figure out where the items in the Kyoto University Library were located and she immediately got down to work.
Many of those who stay in school are busy preparing for postgraduate and doctoral exams and spend every day in the library.
They suddenly discovered that the stern old lady had been replaced by a beautiful girl with a sweet voice and gentle personality.
Taking the opportunity of borrowing, returning or looking for books, I would line up and chat with people.
"Please help me find an introduction to piecewise linear topology. Yes, the authors are C.P. Rourke and B.J. Sanderson. What department are you in? I'm just asking casually."
"Junior, I'm here to return a book. Do you have a boyfriend? Oh, sorry. Can you find any of Teacher Zong Pu's novels? I need them all."
"Can you find some romantic novels? Junior, do you prefer romantic or platonic relationships? We can discuss this together if we have the chance."
“…”
This broke Li Xiujun's inherent idea that librarians have a very leisurely life.
There are just some questions. No matter how you listen to them, they don’t seem to have much to do with books, right?
At the end of the day, her face was almost stiff from smiling.
I sat down on the sofa and took a deep breath. As expected, there is no such thing as easy money in this world.
It never occurred to me that most of these painful passions came from my appearance.
Kyoto University is quite humane and you can go to the Ministry of Finance to settle your wages on the same day.
She happily started her journey home, feeling the thickness of her pockets bulging on both sides, and suddenly felt that she was doing well again!
This home naturally refers to the Gu family. Gu Qingbai was not seen during the day, and was afraid of further trouble, so he insisted that she come back after get off work every day to have dinner and sleep.
In fact, the environment of the faculty and staff dormitories at Kyoto University is also quite good. They are single-person dormitories and are close to each other.
It’s just that Third Uncle has helped me so much, there’s no need to disobey him over small matters.
Dinner was as sumptuous as usual, especially since Gu Ming was still in solitary confinement. Meals were delivered to his bedroom every day, and Li Xiujun ate them, and they were so delicious.
Gu Qingming was sulking. After waiting for a long time but seeing her not tell him what happened at Peking University today, he could no longer hold back.
Unexpectedly, his father got there first and said, "Xiujun, you've worked hard today. Here, I specially asked them to stew some old hen soup. Drink more soup to nourish yourself. You should also eat this big chicken drumstick."
Come on, there’s no point in asking. Can’t he just eat?
As soon as the chopsticks touched the spicy fried chicken gizzards, Mr. Gu snatched them away.
"This chicken gizzard is mixed with sour beans and eaten with rice. It's delicious!"
Encountering fish.
"Xiujun, I caught this by the river this afternoon. The taste of wild fish is definitely different from what you usually eat. Here, fish eyes are good for eyesight. Here you go."
He doesn't even get any meat dishes, so it's okay for him to just have some Chinese cabbage.
"You have to eat vegetables too, to supplement your vitamins. Look at you, you're so skinny that your back is sticking to your chest. You're not healthy at all. Eat, you have to eat everything..."
Gu Qingming had a conversation with his father in the afternoon, which made Old Man Gu promise to help keep it a secret, and at the same time, he felt more pity for this strong girl.
As Li Xiujun was eating, she caught a glimpse of her third uncle who had put down his chopsticks with a gloomy look and a look of grievance, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
The other party immediately cast an even more resentful look. Old Master Gu saw it and slammed his chopsticks on the table: "What are you looking at? Have you eaten your rice? Xiujun has worked so hard today, what's wrong with eating a little more?"
Who is your son after all?
Old Mr. Gu felt that everyone in the business world was a sly old fox, so shortly after Gu Qingming graduated, he put down his work and enjoyed his retirement.
This forced Gu Qingming to relearn a lot of financial knowledge that had nothing to do with his major from scratch, which almost made Lin Xia so angry that she beat her chest and stamped her feet, saying that such a good talent was wasted.
Sometimes I am so busy that I am like a spinning top, and it is normal to have one meal full and one meal hungry.
