At 11:30 in the morning, as the college entrance examination bell rang, Xu Youyu let out a soothing breath.
There were sounds of many students putting down their pens around, but Xu Youyu had already finished writing his composition as early as eleven o'clock, and he was busy checking for omissions and filling in the gaps, so his hands were empty.
After hearing the bell, she leaned back, took her hands off the table, put them on her thighs, and looked at the invigilator on the podium.
As the invigilator announced that the exam was over and asked everyone to stay quietly in their seats and wait for the papers to be collected, Xu Youyu looked out the window.
Her examination room was on the fourth floor of the high school teaching building, by the window. When she turned around, she could catch a glimpse of the grand scene at the school gate in the distance.
A huge crowd of parents came to pick up their children, filling the area in front of the school gate. They were barely stopped outside by a yellow line drawn by security guards and police officers on duty.
If you look closely, you can see several reporters and photographers squatting outside.
Xu Youyu couldn't see clearly who was coming to pick her up and leave the examination room. She just waited quietly for the teacher to take away the examination papers.
When the papers were collected and the invigilator announced that the exam was over, Xu Youyu was not in a hurry and cleared the table slowly.
After everyone in the classroom was almost gone, she slowly left from the back door of the classroom, walked down the stairs, and landed at the back of the large group.
At this time, most of the students had been picked up at the school gate, and Xu Youyu could see the person who came to pick him up at a glance.
"Dad, are you the only one?" Xu Youyu walked under the tree and looked at Xu Rongsheng who came to pick him up. He looked around curiously and found that Xu Rongsheng was the only one here.
"It's only a few steps away, how many people do you want to pick you up?" Xu Rongsheng laughed and said, "Or do you want someone else to pick you up instead of me?"
"No way~" Xu Youyu chuckled, hugged his father's arm and said coquettishly, "Then it must be best for dad to come pick him up."
"Huh." Xu Rongsheng saw his daughter's duplicity at a glance, and didn't bother to expose her, so he asked instead, "What is the Chinese composition?"
In the college entrance examination every year, Chinese composition is the most popular test topic.
After all, it would be a bit embarrassing if you ask the public to read the last big question in mathematics, or to read the full volume of English, or the questions in science.
But although not everyone can write a Chinese composition, everyone can discuss a few sentences.
"Virtuality and reality." Xu Youyu said concisely and comprehensively, "As the Internet develops, should we embrace virtuality or keep reality conservative?"
"How did you answer?" Xu Rongsheng asked.
"I definitely want them all." Xu Youyu pouted, "It's a cliché to talk about this kind of thing. It's just that it must be based on reality to have virtuality. Only with virtuality can reality be enriched."
As the saying goes, the combination of yin and yang creates the great road.
Or you can solve the problem from the perspective of contradiction and unity, which is the same principle.
If we approach the topic purely from the perspective of supporting virtuality or supporting reality, there will be inherent shortcomings.
Unless the answer is amazing, the score ceiling will naturally be weaker.
This is also related to the greater emphasis on the golden mean in China, and problems cannot be dealt with in black and white.
Judging from the selection of college entrance examination essay topics, domestic education still focuses more on ideological cultivation in this area and does not want students to go to extremes.
Of course, this sounds rather empty.
Xu Youyu didn't pay much attention to it. After all, the essay topic this time was relatively simple. After the Chinese language test, Xu Youyu was confident and already had an estimate of his results this time.
After listening to her ideas for solving the essay, Xu Rongsheng nodded, relieved, and led Xu Youyu towards the direction of Bihailanting.
"Where are Li Luo and the others?" Halfway through, Xu Youyu still couldn't hold back and asked this question.
Logically speaking, after his first college entrance examination was over, Li Luo had to come and pick him up.
Xu Youyu made a note for him in his mind. He groaned and wanted to see why this guy didn't come to pick him up.
Could it be that she was embarrassed in front of her parents?
You're usually such a smart person, why can't you follow me just by making some excuses?
She originally thought she would see someone as soon as she left the examination room, but she only saw her father's face. She felt a little disappointed at that time, but she didn't show it.
Xu Rongsheng glanced at his daughter. Although nothing could be seen on the surface, Xu Rongsheng had seen many students in school and knew exactly what Xu Youyu was thinking.
So he just smiled and said, "You'll know when you get back."
Being betrayed by his father, Xu Youyu puffed up his lips and walked a little faster.
Xu Rongsheng followed leisurely, and during the process he answered a call from Cui Suling, and then said to Xu Youyu: "Don't go into the community first, go to the supermarket to buy a bottle of vinegar, the kitchen is almost running out."
"I'm a college entrance examination student, you still want me to be jealous?" Xu Youyu said with wide eyes.
"Then you go up first and I'll buy it?"
"Forget it, let's go buy it together." Xu Youyu quickly took his father to the supermarket. While buying a bottle of vinegar, he also picked up some snacks.
After finishing the shopping, Xu Youyu finally returned home with the bag, and he smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen.
"It smells so good~" Xu Youyu had just finished taking the exam and had done some mental exercise. He was still hungry, so he was immediately aroused by the smell.
She hurriedly changed her slippers, took out the bottle of vinegar from the bag, glanced at the living room, and came to the kitchen door without seeing Li Luo and the others.
"Mom, here's the vinegar!" Xu Youyu opened the sliding door of the kitchen and handed the vinegar bottle in, thinking of going to Li Luo's room for a hug to replenish himself with energy for the exam.
As soon as the door opened, Li Luo, who was near the door, reached out and took the vinegar bottle, leaving Xu Youyu stunned.
"Why are you cooking?" Xu Youyu looked confused, but then became excited again, "What did you do?"
Li Luo took the vinegar bottle, put it aside, and then responded while cooking: "Anyway, there is something you like to eat."
Counting Cui Suling and Xu Rongsheng who came here today, there are six people in the family. Li Luo prepared eight dishes and one soup, among which mapo tofu and green pepper shredded pork are Xu Youyu's favorites.
After spending so much time together, Li Luo knew the tastes of Cui Suling and Xu Rongsheng very well, and he also cooked a few of their favorite dishes.
In addition, Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng were naturally not ignored by him.
But today's protagonist is Xu Youyu, and Li Luo must give priority to the college entrance examination candidates this time. Not only Mapo tofu and green pepper shredded pork, but also other dishes are basically Xu Youyu's favorite, and then he will consider other people's tastes.
This led to the fact that Xu Youyu felt like he was being seduced just by standing at the door of the kitchen and smelling the fragrance, even without Li Luo's words.
Narrowing his eyes and twitching his nose, Xu Youyu walked into the kitchen and followed the scent to the countertop. He saw a plate of green pepper shredded pork that was still hot. He couldn't help but reach out and pinch a piece of shredded pork, and stuffed it in one gulp.
Mouth, face full of intoxication.
Cui Suling on the side saw this scene and immediately nudged her daughter in disgust: "It will be fine soon. Why did you eat secretly? You didn't wash your hands when you came back. Are you dirty?"
"Just take a bite." Xu Youyu muttered and quickly hid on the left side of Li Luo, blocking his mother's view.
Li Luo continued cooking with a smile, while Cui Suling became more and more satisfied as she looked at Li Luo. Looking at Xu Youyu, a greedy little cat, she felt that this girl was ignorant and didn't know how to behave in front of Li Luo.
"The soup is almost ready." Li Luo opened the lid of the casserole next to him and took a look, then sprinkled some salt into it, picked up a spoon, scooped out a spoonful, blew it to cool and then handed it to Xu Youyu's mouth, "Try it.
Salty."
"What soup?"
“Corn, winter melon and pork ribs soup.”
"Oh." Xu Youyu lowered his head and took a sip, "It's a bit lighter."
"Then I'll add some salt." Li Luo added a little more salt to the pot, then picked up a soup bowl and poured the cooked corn, winter melon and pork ribs soup into it.
Soon, eight dishes and one soup were brought to the table outside.
Li Luo took off his apron and hung it on the wall, breathing a long sigh of relief.
It’s been a long time since I’ve cooked for a table like this, so I’m really a bit unskilled.
However, with the Memory Palace around me, there is no room for deterioration in my cooking skills, and my performance is still perfect.
He called Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng who were in the bedroom to come out, and the six of them sat in a circle to eat.
After tasting the food cooked by Li Luo, Cui Suling and Xu Rongsheng were both a little surprised and couldn't help but look at each other.
The error-free version is being read! This is the first novel.
As for Xu Youyu and the other three girls, they were not surprised, but now it was rare to taste Li Luo's cooking skills. They still cherished it and chewed it carefully and tasted it slowly.
"Okay, Li Luo, you made this dish." Cui Suling couldn't help but praise, "It tastes really good."
"Indeed." Xu Rongsheng tasted it, nodded and commented, "It feels like the taste in a restaurant, it's delicious."
"That's for sure." Xu Youyu scooped up a few spoonfuls of Mapo Tofu happily, poured it directly on his rice, took a bite happily, and showed a happy expression, "This Mapo Tofu is much better than you, Mom.
"
"Heh." Cui Suling rolled her eyes and said, "Li Luo is better at cooking than me. Can you let him cook for you from now on?"
"That's not possible. Cooking is so tiring." Xu Youyu shook his head and actually felt distressed, "Once in a while is good."
