Similar questions were heard in the cafeteria of Luming Academy. The lady who was cooking was confused: "Why do you all want to eat eggs today? Hens only lay so many eggs in total. I can't help you asking for them one by one. They have been sold for a long time."
It’s over!”
Most of the vegetables and meat in the cafeteria are prepared by the academy. There is a school field in the back hill of the academy. The ladies in the cafeteria not only help in the cafeteria, but also farm in the back hill on weekdays, raising chickens and so on. Except for some meat, the cafeteria is full of food.
Self-produced and sold.
Later students also knew about the situation in the academy, so they could only shake their heads regretfully and suggested: "Madam, the cafeteria should prepare more eggs in the future. I'm afraid there will be a lot of people buying them in the future."
Why?
Not only was the lady in the cafeteria puzzled, but the students in other classes were also puzzled. Someone next to them asked curiously: "Why do you want to buy eggs? Did the master assign some strange tasks again?"
This guess is very reliable, because the masters at Luming Academy don't like to take the ordinary path, and sometimes the assignments assigned are all kinds of strange, so it is normal for them to have such doubts.
A classmate from Class A nodded with a wry smile: "You guessed it right, this is Master Ye's homework requirement. The basic introductory skills of Xumi painting require drawing eggs. You will find out when you go to class."
"Master Ye's request?"
Everyone knew that Class A had a Xumi painting class today, and they immediately gathered around curiously: "How did you feel about the Xumi painting class today? How much did you learn? Is it difficult? Is Mr. Ye strict?"
The old classmate said on the ground: "Master Ye is really capable. As for the specifics, I can only understand it but cannot explain it. You will know it when you come to class."
This story sold well, and everyone was tempted. Some even wanted to peek at them doing their homework, but those people in Class A were very bad and would not let them watch, so everyone became more and more curious.
At this moment, a group of little beans came outside the cafeteria. They were all plump and noble. Although one of the boys was young, he was obviously the center of the small group. His companions around him seemed to be very convinced of him.
, all vying to talk to him.
This son's identity is no longer a secret. He is the eldest son of the magistrate and Mrs. Ning Guo. He is currently studying in Class A of the Men's School, and he can be regarded as a new and influential figure.
The university students have very mixed feelings about these little kids. It’s okay to say they don’t like them. Many of them are old enough to be fathers. They really can’t dislike these kids, but if they welcome them, they can’t.
It's not very welcoming. It's really awkward for a well-established university to suddenly have a bunch of brats break into it.
It's a pity that they can't influence the decision of the mountain leader. The status of these little bean sprouts is extraordinary, and they are not someone they can provoke. They can only hold their noses and accept this fact. They usually avoid it to avoid accidentally provoking these children.
Yes, we are in big trouble.
Children, especially pampered children, are in great trouble.
However, some people happened to do the opposite. Not only did they not get rid of them as troubles, they also went out of their way to get in touch with them, and established friendship with Cui Zhiduan and others despite the contempt of many classmates.
This person was none other than the scholar surnamed Zhao who had praised Mrs. Ning Guo at the gate of the academy that day.
The scholar surnamed Zhao was named Shi Ke. He loved Xumi paintings and highly admired Mrs. Ning Guo. Cui Zhiduan heard his conversation with his companions at the gate of the academy and had a very favorable impression of this eldest brother who protected his mother, so he went to
I didn’t refuse when I came to make friends, and we naturally became friends across age groups.
Zhao Shike came early today. When he saw Cui Zhiduan coming, he waved his hand enthusiastically: "Brother Zhiduan, this way! This way! I've got a seat for you."
It is lunch time now, and there are many students coming to eat. It is really difficult not to occupy a seat. Zhao Shike takes the initiative to help occupy a seat every time. This is why Cui Zhidian and the others are willing to take this big brother to play with them.
one--
They are small and weak, so they really can't compete with the adults in occupying positions.
Cui Zhiduan and others came over to sit down after finishing their meal. Zhao Shike glanced at their plates and secretly muttered in his heart that the ladies serving the meal were so unfair!
It seems that shaking hands is a traditional skill of ladies. Slowly, half a spoonful of rice can be shaken off. After it is put on the dinner plate, there is not much left. Although everyone can eat enough and the price is not expensive, everyone
I always feel dissatisfied.
It wasn't until these little beans came to the cafeteria to have a meal that everyone knew what partiality was.
Facing these little bean sprouts, the ladies in the cafeteria no longer have sore waists or leg pain. They greet them with smiles when they see them. Even their ancestral hand shaking skills are selectively cured, and they can steadily fill a big spoonful every time.
Spoon, so every time these little bean sprouts have sharp points on their plates.
The difference in treatment is too obvious!
Zhao Shike burst into tears with envy, and finally couldn't help but said: "Little friend Zhi Duan, have your parents given more money to the academy? Why do you always have more food than us?"
The scholars sitting next to him also stretched their ears to listen. This was also the question in their minds.
Cui Zhiduan was just about to eat when he heard this and put down his spoon and tilted his head in confusion: "I have never heard my mother mention this, but Aunt Li and the others often say that we are still young and growing, so we need to eat more meals to be able to bear the burden."
We were hungry, so we packed a lot of food every time."
In fact, he was a little troubled. The food in the cafeteria was not as good as the food at home. He didn't like eating it very much, but his parents had taught him not to waste food, so he ate the food obediently every time.
It's just that the ladies in the cafeteria are too enthusiastic and hit him a lot every time. He has a small appetite and can't eat much, so he is always full at lunch.
He accidentally said this sentence, and found that the big brother opposite looked at him very strangely. Not only him, but also the big brothers next to him looked at him very strangely.
Did he say the wrong thing?
"You're right, they are envious of us."
One of the companions, a chubby boy, was sober and spoke to the point: "There have been many times when Brother Zhao's eyes glowed green when he saw our food, and he wished he could eat it for us."
Zhao Shike: "..."
Cui Zhiduan: "..."
Is that so?
Cui Zhiduan looked at Zhao Shike suspiciously and asked, "Brother, aren't you full? If not, I can share some food with you."
How could Zhao Shike snatch the children's food? He took a lonely sip of the soup, which made him feel even more sad: "I'm not full, I'm just a little aggrieved."
As for what the grievances are, everyone knows everything that needs to be understood.
Compared with those ignorant children, the students at the university were really understanding. They felt sad at the scene and all felt for themselves. They drank a glass of soup instead of wine, feeling quite frustrated.
Of course, if this wasn't a canteen and what they were serving wasn't soup, it would be even more lamentable.
