Chapter 182.
When Xiang Jin returned to the dormitory, everyone was still eating, but after seeing the rice bowl and lunch box in her hand, a girl named He Guizhi said, "Xiang Jin, are you going to steam the rice?"

Xiang Jin shook his head, "No, I just think it's better to use your own bowls and chopsticks when eating out."

Luo Qiuyan took a mouthful of rice and said, "That's right, no matter how clean the outside is, it's still useless for your own safety."

Xiang Jin said, "Why are you guys eating now? It seems a little late?" She had finished eating on the street, and then went to the supply and marketing agency before returning, but seeing how many of them It seems that the amount of consumption in the lunch box has only just started to eat?

Zhao Xiaomei said, "Oh, don't talk about it, today the rice cooker overslept because of his afternoon nap, and then the dinner was late, so we were delayed for about 10 minutes before the meal came out."

Then Xiang Jin asked again, "Then have you steamed tomorrow morning?"

Some people nodded, some shook their heads. Those who nodded always had two rice steaming boxes, and those who shook their heads generally only had one rice steaming box, so they had to wash the box after eating and then use it to steam rice.

Xiang Jin nodded, "Then you eat. I'll go to the cafeteria to get some boiling water and come back to scald the bowls and chopsticks. Does anyone of you want to boil the water? I'll bring it back for you?"

Then Liu Ying hurriedly said, "I, I, I, please bring me a pot for me, thank you?" Then she handed her water bottle and a dime to Xiang Jin.

Does this mean fetching water for money?A dime a pot, right?
Then Xiang Jin said, "Wait a minute," she still wants to look for it, to see if she has a dime?

She just glanced in the direction of the student cafeteria from a distance before, and then saw a classmate go there with a kettle, and then someone came out with a kettle, but she herself had never been there Hit the water.

Then she took out the money from her pocket, one, two, five, ten, and it seemed that she hadn't gotten a ticket yet. After seeing it, the classmates in the same dormitory were a little surprised, and He Guizhi said , "Xiang Jin, your mother is really willing to give you so much pocket money at one time?" Then add up, at least thirty or forty, right?

Xiang Jin chuckled twice, her mother never gave her any money, it was all her own money, in fact, whether it was tuition and miscellaneous fees, or the things she bought recently, it was all her own money .

Not only that, since their family built the house, except for the materials used to build the house, she paid for all the living expenses of the family, and she even gave back the Phellinus japonica money. Mom two thousand.

She puts small bills and small bills in this pocket, like the 51 ones, she put them in another pocket and didn't take them out. If she took them out, wouldn't it scare them a lot Jump, then don't know how much they say her mother dotes on her?
Xiang Jin just smiled and said nothing when she saw Luo Qiuyan saying, "Xiang Jin didn't steam the rice, so her mother wants to give her some extra pocket money, or she'll be hungry?"

Then a few people nodded, and then Zhao Xiaomei asked, "Oh, by the way, Xiang Jin, why don't you steam the rice? How cost-effective is it?"

Xiang Jin lied and said, "I had a serious illness during the summer vacation, and then I felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach. Now the weather is still a little hot, and my mother is afraid that if I eat that kind of bad food again in the morning, I will have a stomachache, and then I will call him I don’t want to steam the rice, just eat fresh ones outside.”

"Oh, so it's like this?" Several people suddenly nodded.

Then He Guizhi still couldn't help but enviously said, "But your mother really loves you. If my mother is reluctant, she will give me five yuan a week for pocket money, and I won't do anything more."

Several other people also said that their parents were like that too.

Xiang Jin said, "Okay, I'm going to fetch water."

She went out with two kettles, Luo Qiuyan ran over and handed her a dime, "Bring your own change, the old man who put the water is a bit weird, he doesn't give change."

Oh, there is such a thing?Xiang Jin said with a smile, "Thank you, I will borrow it from you, and I will pay you back at that time!"

"Oh, no, no, it's only a dime," Luo Qiuyan waved her hand very generously.

Xiang Jin went to fetch water, there were a lot of people fetching water, she waited in line for a long time to get the water, but she saw a sign there, which said decisively: fetch water and bring change, sorry No compensation!

Oh, it really is!Fortunately, Luo Qiuyan lent her ten cents, otherwise she would have lost ninety cents.

Xiang Jin walked back with two jugs of water, and then heard someone not far away calling him, "Xiang Jin?"

She followed the sound, and then saw a black-faced boy not far away by the flower bed looking at her and smiling. He had a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was probably only a little taller than herself.

The boy saw her looking at him, and then ran over with a thump.

Xiang Jin looked at him with puzzled eyes, "What's the matter?"

The boy said, "Are you fetching water?"

Xiang Jin nodded, and then saw that he was holding a lunch box in his hand. There were drops of water on the lunch box, which must have been used to steam rice.

Seeing that she didn't speak, the boy said, "Wait a minute, I'll pick it up for you later," he turned around after speaking, and ran away again.

Xiang Jin felt baffled, then turned around and left, also carrying the water bottle.

When Song Kaiyan came back after putting away the lunch box, he saw that Xiang Jin was gone, he was a little frustrated, and after a moment of daze, he chased after Xiang Jin.

Xiang Jin used to walk, he used to run, and she caught up with Xiang Jin after a while.

"Xiang Jin, can I lift it for you?" He held out his hand to Xiang Jin.

Xiang Jin refused, "No, thank you." She didn't know him well, so why should she owe him a favor?

"Give it to me, the two bottles of water are still quite heavy." He reached out to snatch the water bottle from Xiang Jin's hand, but Xiang Jin dodged it, "It's really not necessary!"

When Yan Chen came down from the teachers' dormitory, he happened to see this scene. He frowned slightly, and then walked quickly towards the two of them.

"Why do you fetch two jugs of water?" He stretched out his hand and took a bottle from her hand. His movements were casual and leisurely, and he also carried a sense of dignity.

Xiang Jin said, "I brought a pot for someone."

The moment he saw Yan Chen, Song Kaiyan immediately felt a little bad, and he just frowned and looked at him blankly.

After Yan Chen nodded slightly at him, he said to Xiang Jin, "When you run out of boiling water, just bring the kettle to me, and I'll bring it down for you, so there's no need to mention such a long journey."

Xiang Jin was surprised, "Where can you boil water?"

Yan Chen glanced at her angrily, "Just kidding, I live at home, so of course I can boil water! Not only can I boil water, but I can also cook."

"Is that so? That's fine. From then on, you will pack my boiled water for me. Let me tell you, we have to pay for fetching water from the cafeteria. It's nothing, not much anyway. , It’s only ten cents, the key is to bring your own change, I almost lost ninety cents today.”

"Oh? How do you say that?" Yan Chen asked.

Xiang Jin clattered to him, and then Yan Chen nodded, "Okay, then I will pack all your water for you in the future, but it's only for you, not for others?"

Xiang Jin nodded, then rolled his eyes towards the sky angrily, "Got it, got it, don't worry, I won't trouble you, stingy!"

Yan Chen laughed and said, "It's not that I'm stingy, but I still live in someone else's house. When we gave him money back then, he didn't want it, so I don't want to cause too much trouble for him."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Understood, then should I give you that dime?"

Yan Chen glanced at her angrily.

She immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes, and then Yan Chen reminded her, "Leave?!"

"Oh oh oh," Xiang Jin followed and left with him alone carrying a water bottle. She ignored Song Kaiyan from the beginning to the end, and Yan Chen walked in front, the corners of her mouth curled up involuntarily.

Then Xiang Jin caught up with him and continued to ask, "Oh, I really don't need to give you that dime?"

Yan Chen gave her a sideways glance, "Am I the one short of that dime?"

Xiang Jin said, "Isn't this where you still live in someone else's house? Then the water will be used too much, and it won't be good, right?"

Yan Chen stood still and said, "Don't worry, when Director Zhao gave me the house key, I also asked him for a utility card, and I will charge it myself when I run out."

"Oh, oh, that's good. Well, then why were you so fussy about me just now?" Xiang Jin nodded and asked again.

Yan Chen said, "I'm not fussing with you, but I'm afraid you'll agree to bring water for others when the time comes. I'm not familiar with them, and I don't plan to be familiar with them. Why should I bear other people's water costs?" ?”

"Okay," Xiang Jin pouted half a step behind him, cruel boy? !
Yan Chen sent her downstairs to the girls' dormitory, and then handed her the water bottle, "Be careful."

"I know!"

Seeing her going upstairs, Yan Chen turned around and walked towards the teaching building.
