Yun Qiao smiled helplessly, "Why are you so stingy with these ten dollars?"
Feng Juan said, "It's not about the ten yuan. We don't need it. It's more about the fact that I feel uncomfortable."
Yun Qiao joked, "Then Tingjun and I will hold another one in the capital? And you can collect the money?"
Feng Juan blushed: "That's not the case."
If they really did that, they would definitely be scolded. This family is obsessed with money.
She can't afford to lose face.
Feng Juan put down the invitation in her hand, turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue preparing lunch. Yun Qiao returned to the room, combed her half-dry hair, changed into clothes suitable for going out, and then packed up the books she brought back home and put them into her schoolbag.
After she finished her work, she heard Feng Juan calling her to have lunch outside.
In order not to delay Yun Qiao's afternoon classes, Feng Juan cooked very well today. It was only half past eleven when Yun Qiao sat at the table and started eating, and it was just after twelve o'clock when he finished eating.
Yun Qiao’s first class in the afternoon is at 2:10, so there is still plenty of time.
Feng Juan was worried that the food in the school cafeteria was not good and that Yun Qiao had no appetite at school, so she stuffed a jar of hot and sour cucumber strips that she had just pickled in the past two days into her schoolbag.
She marinated the cucumber strips with pickled peppers and vinegar, and packed them in glass jars of canned cucumbers. They have a crisp texture, and the sour and spicy taste is very appetizing, especially suitable for eating in the hot summer when your appetite is poor.
Yun Qiao liked the taste very much, so he didn't refuse.
It’s just a jar of pickles anyway, and it doesn’t taste like anything when you open it. It shouldn’t affect others if you bring it to the dormitory.
When I say 'others', it's actually just Su Yao.
She is very spoiled and has a lot of complaints in the dormitory.
Gao Pin has a slight body odor, especially after exercise, when the volatile sweat smell is more obvious. Others will not bring it up for the sake of face among roommates. Even if they do mention it, they will remind her in a very tactful way to take a shower frequently.
But Su Yao is not tactful.
She and Gao Pin still have a bit of an old grudge. Every time Gao Pin takes off his clothes or shoes, as soon as she smells something, she will pinch her nose in an exaggerated manner and complain loudly: "Gao Pin, can you please not take off your shoes in the dormitory? They stink, can't you smell it? Can't you have some manners? Your feet are so smelly that I'm almost fainting."
She spoke bluntly and directly said that Gaopin's feet smelled. Gaopin's face turned redder and redder, and he almost fought with her.
In fact, it is far less exaggerated than she said.
Not only did she complain about her roommate's body odor, but she also had an issue with other people bringing food into the dormitory.
Either she dislikes this smell, or that smell is too greasy and makes her feel nauseous.
In short, he can find reason even if there is nothing wrong.
So now everyone eats directly in the cafeteria before returning to the dorms, and tries not to bring food to the dorms to eat, to avoid being ridiculed by her again: "You can eat something mixed with the smell of high-quality stinky feet, how dirty."
Yun Qiao didn't have a good impression of Su Yao and didn't want to get along with her, so even though school had started three or four months ago, the words she spoke to Su Yao were still very limited.
The two of them were not familiar with each other, and Yun Qiao did not intend to attract her attention. When the time came, she would leave the things in the dormitory and not open them. It would not be too late to open and eat them in the cafeteria when it was time to eat.
Yun Qiao left home at 12:30 and waited for the bus smoothly. He changed buses twice and didn't have to wait much. He arrived at school at 1:15.
There was still an hour before class started, so Yun Qiao went back to the dormitory first.
Only Lucy Liu and Chang Xiaofang were in the dormitory.
Chang Xiaofang was lying on the bed with her back to the aisle, curled up into a ball, as if she was taking a nap.
Lucy Liu was sitting at the desk by the window, reading a book.
Yun Qiao glanced at the cover and saw that it was Chinese Medicine Processing.
The atmosphere in the dormitory was not good, with small groups forming cliques and factions. Yun Qiao did not belong to any of the small groups, so his interactions with everyone were indifferent. After taking a five-day leave, he only asked Fan Yijin about the situation. When the others returned to the dormitory, he acted as if nothing had happened and did not ask any more questions.
Yun Qiao didn't care. She borrowed notes from a classmate she knew in the next dormitory. She planned to take a look at them and quickly jot down some notes before class, so that she wouldn't be unable to understand what the teacher was saying when he started lecturing.
After an entire afternoon of classes, Yun Qiao was barely able to keep up. He planned to go to the library after class to study more, trying to learn as much knowledge as possible so that he could integrate it in the future.
After school, she went to the cafeteria to eat first. When she arrived at the library, she happened to meet Zhang Rui, her roommate from the next dormitory who had lent her notes.
There happened to be an empty seat next to Zhang Rui. Yun Qiao didn't know if she had made plans to study with others. When she was hesitating whether to go over and ask, Zhang Rui took the initiative to wave at her, "Yun Qiao, here."
"Come here." She pointed to the empty seat next to her, and the enthusiasm in her eyes didn't seem fake.
Yun Qiao walked over, put down his schoolbag, and sat down next to her.
Everyone in the library was studying and couldn't make loud noises, so Yun Qiao lowered his voice and asked her, "Are you here alone?"
"I came here with my roommate. We both reserved seats in advance, but she was called away by the club members to help out, so one seat was left empty."
"Thank you." Yun Qiao smiled and said, "I got lucky. If I had known there would be so many people in the library, I should have come here first to grab a seat. If I had eaten in the cafeteria and then came here, I wouldn't have been able to find a seat."
"The final exams are just over a month away, and everyone is very nervous. In order to do well on the exams, they have to go to the library to study hard and pretend to do well," Zhang Rui commented.
"Well said." Zhang Rui smiled and said, "Next time, don't go to the cafeteria to eat first. Come early to reserve a seat. It's not too late to go back to the cafeteria to eat after you reserve a seat. After all, you won't be so lucky to find an empty seat every time."
Yun Qiao nodded: "I understand, thank you for the reminder."
"You're welcome." Zhang Rui waved her hand, chuckled twice, and rubbed her hands awkwardly: "Actually, I also have something I want to ask you."
"What is it?" Yun Qiao asked her.
Zhang Rui leaned close to Yun Qiao's ear and whispered, "Did you know that our school is going to have a student exchange program with foreign countries? If you're selected, you can go abroad."
"International exchange?" Yun Qiao looked confused and shook his head, saying, "I don't know. I've been on leave these days and haven't been in school."
“Are you sure it’s true?” she asked.
"Really? The whole school has heard about it. You'll find out if you go out and ask around." Zhang Rui lowered her voice and said, "I heard that Su Yao from your dormitory was chosen."
