Chapter 190 189. Someone!

The next morning after morning self-study, several girls in her dormitory went to the classroom cafeteria to have breakfast with Xiang Jin, even Zhang Xiaoxia was no exception.

It's just that Xiang Jin saw that their food was so simple, they all had a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun, and none of them was willing to buy steamed buns, let alone eggs.

Because Yang Hui was having dinner with others before, but he moved out from their place yesterday. Although they returned the food he had handed in there before, he didn't have the nerve to take it. After all, anyway, the two Nian also disturbed others, so it was just a little thank you, so he ate here this morning.

Because Xiang Jin has a monthly card, he automatically stamped his portion of the meal when he was cooking.

Because of the lessons learned from the meal yesterday morning, she and Yan Chen only had three bowls of porridge, three steamed buns, two steamed buns, and three boiled eggs for this morning's meal.

The girls in Xiang Jin's dormitory finished cooking, and seeing that there were still vacant seats for them, they wanted to come and sit with them.

Especially that Zhang Xiaoxia was the most active, she just passed them and they were about to sit down, but Yan Chen didn't give face, so she just said two words coldly:
"Someone!"

His voice was cold and cold, and there was an obvious sense of displeasure in rejecting others thousands of miles away.

Zhang Xiaoxia said, "You only have three bowls of rice. There are several seats here. Why can't I sit here?"

Yan Chen lazily raised his eyelids, and then gave her a sideways glance, "How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch, and for the same reason, I don't like strangers getting too close to me!"

"You? Yan Chen, are you too domineering?" Zhang Xiaoxia immediately became displeased, frowning and staring at Yan Chen, she said angrily.

Yan Chen said, "There are vacancies elsewhere, why don't you go elsewhere?"

"You?" Zhang Xiaoxia was stopped by the question, and seeing that everyone around her was looking in their direction, her face turned red immediately.

Yan Chen didn't bother to pay attention to her any more, he leaned back on the chair with his hands closed his eyes and regained his composure, but there was a cold aura of not getting close to strangers all over his body.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoxia stomped her feet, and while making a cold snort, twisted her body and angrily grabbed the lunch box and went elsewhere.

Several other girls witnessed the whole process of how Yan Chen rejected Zhang Xiaoxia, who would dare to come here again?Therefore, they all consciously turned elsewhere.

Yang Hui came later than them, and when he was about to line up with those people, Xiang Jin waved to him, "Hey, Yang Hui, here?!"

After hearing her shout, Yang Hui raised his head to search for her figure, then strode towards them, and then sat down beside them.

"I thought you guys haven't arrived yet to pick up the lunch box."

Xiang Jin said, "Wow, we brought the bowls, chopsticks and lunch boxes to the classroom before gathering on the playground in the morning."

Xiang Jin handed him the chopsticks, "Hey, I made you a bowl of porridge, a steamed bun, a steamed bun, and a hard-boiled egg. If you don't have enough, I'll go there and buy some later with my notebook." .”

Yang Hui said, "This much is not enough? You think too much of me, oh yes, how much is it, I will give it to you later?"

Xiang Jin glared at him, "Can we still be relatives? As for being out of touch like that? Yan Chen and I, the two of us won't see out! Right, Yan Chen?"

Yan Chen gave a faint "hmm".

Seeing this, Yang Hui nodded and said, "Okay, okay, I won't meet with you, and I'll cook for you when I have a chance."

"It's not too bad." Xiang Jin picked up a steamed bun and took a bite. By the way, he put another boiled egg in front of him, "Hurry up and eat, the steamed stuffed bun won't taste good when it gets cold."

"Oh!"

After eating a steamed bun, Yang Hui went to get the steamed buns. Seeing that there were only two steamed buns in the bowl, he went to take them with some embarrassment, then retracted his hand and peeled the eggs instead.

Xiang Jin explained to him, "I can't eat that much, so I didn't make steamed buns for myself. The steamed buns were originally made for you. I made a steamed bun yesterday morning and didn't eat it. There were still some leftovers."

"Oh well!"

Yan Chen picked up his steamed bun and asked Xiang Jin, "Do you want some?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "One point!"

"half?"

"Well, I can't eat that much, just a small piece, about one-fifth of it."

Then Yan Chen broke off about a quarter of it for her.

Xiang Jin took it, and then said, "Eat at noon, I won't eat it in the cafeteria, I will eat it on the street, and I will buy cotton wool to put it under there, the frame of the wooden bed is too deep, yesterday I slept on it for a long time at night without falling asleep, and I always felt uncomfortable."

Yan Chen said, "There is plenty of time at noon, even after you eat, it's not too late to go shopping on the street."

Xiang Jin said, "Don't I think it's troublesome? I have to wash the dishes after dinner, and I have to go back to the classroom, and then I go downstairs again. What a waste of time."

Yang Hui said, "No, when you have dinner, I'll wash the dishes for you, and you can just go to the street."

Xiang Jin said, "Okay, what did you say?"

Yang Hui nodded, "Well, I said so!"

Well, it seems that it is pretty good to have a cousin, and he can still be used at critical times!
After lunch at noon, Xiang Jin pushed the bowls and chopsticks to Yang Hui to wash, just about to turn around and go to the street, but saw Yan Chen pushed his own bowls and chopsticks to Yang Hui, "Help me wash it too. , I'll go to the street too."

"okay!"

While walking on the road, Xiang Jin asked, "What are you doing on the street?"

Yan Chen said, "I'll go and give you a key."

"Oh, this is it!" Xiang Jin suddenly remembered, "You reminded me, the key to my dormitory hasn't been handed over to them yet."

Yan Chen said, "Then you'd better hand it over earlier, otherwise you won't be able to tell what was lost in the dormitory!"

Xiang Jin nodded vigorously, "Yeah, I'll leave it to them when I go back later."

After a while, the two arrived on the street, and then Yan Chen said, "Go to the supply and marketing agency to buy cotton wool, and I'll find the one with the key."

"okay!"

So the two separated.

In about ten minutes, Xiang Jin had just come out of the supply and marketing cooperative with a few beds of thick cotton wool in his arms, and before he had walked far, he ran into Yan Chen who came back to look for her.

Seeing her holding the cotton that was taller than her, Yan Chen frowned, and then took two beds from her, "Why did you buy so much?"

"Oh, that's great." Seeing him, Xiang Jin immediately relaxed, "I bought a bed for you and Yang Hui, and I guess you guys can't sleep well."

Yan Chen's brows furrowed even deeper, "I don't need it, I'm used to sleeping on a hard berth."

Xiang Jin said, "Then put it there and use it when you head in winter. I told you that it will be very cold when you head in winter, but if you want to use it as a quilt, you'd better put it on first." It is packed under the pad and then taken out to cover it, so that the cotton inside it will not fall off."

She heard from Aunt Liao that there is frost and snow here in winter, and it is common to freeze. Every morning when you get up, the door is pushed, and the house, the road, and the vegetable field are all covered with white bars. It's frost, big frost!

"Ok!"

"Have you got your keys ready?" Xiang Jin then asked about the situation on his side.

Yan Chen said, "Not so fast, he told me to pick it up after school in the afternoon."

"Oh," she became a little flustered immediately, "It's over, then you left him the mother key, what about my cotton wool? I put it back in the bedroom?"

Yan Chen said, "No, I asked him to print a mold and brought back the mother key."

"Oh, that's good, that's good," Xiang Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked again, "Hey, can he match the key just by leaving a mold?"

Yan Chen nodded slightly, "He said yes, but it doesn't matter, and then it will be corrected according to the mother key."

Xiang Jin nodded, and then asked, "Then I'll call you back to the dormitory for dinner?"

"can!"

"Then you have to come back early, the cafeteria is for noodles in the evening, I'll try to let them cook for you later."

"it is good!"

Xiang Jin glanced at his watch and saw that there was still enough time, so he said to Yan Chen, "I'll go back to the girls' dormitory to return the keys later, help me take all these cotton wool back."

"Well," Yan Chen nodded, and glanced at her wrist, "Did you buy a watch?"

Xiang Jin glanced at his wrist, nodded and said, "I thought your watch was high-end, so I didn't want to wear it. I just wanted to wear it when I grew up and started working! At that time Don’t be afraid to get the cover of the watch scratched, now, just bring a watch to check the time.”

Yan Chen just laughed, "Then you have to put it away, don't lose it!"

Xiang Jin was stunned, "No way, that watch is really valuable?"

Yan Chen said, "It's not very valuable, but generally valuable."

Because of the unpleasant experience of the two of them last time, Xiang Jin didn't ask him how much the watch was worth, but nodded half-seriously and half-jokingly, "It seems that I have to Put it away, otherwise it would be a pity to lose it!"

Yan Chen just smiled and remained silent!
Back at school, Xiang Jin put the bed of cotton wool in Yan Chen's hands directly, and she turned around and went to the girls' dormitory.

However, in the aisle, she saw an old woman selling soup with a bucket, and several girls in their dormitory were also queuing up there to make soup.

"Xiang Jin, are you back?" Seeing her, several familiar girls waved to her.

Xiang Jin nodded to them, then walked over and jokingly said to them, "Why is it so late today? The rice cooker dozed off again?"

Several people shook their heads, and then Liu Ying said, "I heard that there is something wrong with the rice steaming boiler, so there was a delay."

Xiang Jin nodded, and then asked them, "What kind of soup did you make?"

They said that they hadn't made it yet, but it looked like pickled cabbage soup with cucumber slices.

Xiang Jin nodded, then turned his head and looked in the direction of the old woman.

The old woman was leaning towards the bucket to make soup for others, and then Xiang Jin saw that the soup in the bucket was indeed pickled cabbage soup with cucumber slices.

It's just a few cucumber slices and some sauerkraut shreds floating around, scooped up with a spoon, just five or six cucumber slices and a few sporadic pieces of sauerkraut, as well as stirred chili powder, even a little bit of oil Huahua and green onion were not available, and then she saw a girl gave her a total of [-] cents for two spoonfuls.

Then Xiang Jin asked her classmates in a low voice, "Isn't it a dime a scoop?"

Luo Qiuyan curled her lips and said, "The price has increased, and it's because her spoon is too big."

"Oh," it was still like this, Xiang Jin felt that the canteen owner's vegetable soup was really a conscience price.

For example, at noon today, they had sauerkraut vermicelli soup for lunch today, and the boss even picked up chopsticks vermicelli for each of them. There were a few small pieces of fat embedded in the sauerkraut vermicelli soup, and chopped green onions were also sprinkled .

Their [-] cents at noon today is more worthwhile than the [-] cents of the girl just now. She saw that girl just now. Two spoonfuls of soup in the lunch box probably didn’t even cost ten cucumber slices. , is purely two spoonfuls of water.

Soon it was the turn of the girls in their dormitory, and each of them went to fetch a spoon and came back. Xiang Jin saw that there were only three slices of cucumber in He Guizhi's bowl. Feeling embarrassed, so after giving her that spoonful of soup, he scooped up another half spoonful of soup to seal He Guizhi's mouth, so that she could not express her dissatisfaction.

Xiang Jin shook her head helplessly for them in her heart, and then they all went back to the dormitory together, and then everyone asked her if she came back to see them?

Xiang Jin said, "Yes, but it's not all. I have one more thing to do when I come back, and that is to hand over the key to the dormitory to you. Let's see which one of you takes over." After speaking, Xiang Jin took the key from his Take it out of the keychain.

Zhao Xiaomei stretched out her hand, "Leave it to me. I'm the head of the dormitory. If someone comes in next time, I'll leave it to her."

"Oh, good," Xiang Jin handed her the key, and she hung it directly into her own keychain.

Then He Guizhi asked Xiang Jin, "Xiang Jin, did you also eat in the teacher's cafeteria at noon? I want to ask, is your lunch expensive?"

Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, we have two dishes and one soup for lunch, and the total cost is about two yuan."

"Ah? So expensive? One meal will eat up half a week's pocket money? Can't afford it, can't afford it!" Liu Ying shook her head in shock.

It's hard for Xiang Jin to continue talking to them. After all, everyone's living standard is generally like this at this time. If she says that she is not expensive, then maybe they will say that she is showing that their family is rich?
She didn't want to say it, but Luo Qiuyan and He Guizhi kept asking, which made it hard for her not to answer.

"Xiang Jin, how do you distribute the food expenses at noon? For example, how much is the soup and how much is the dish?"

It was Luo Qiuyan who asked the question.

Xiang Jin answered them in a straightforward manner, and then He Guizhi asked again, "Then do you have to order two dishes and one soup for lunch? Or can you choose what you want? For example, Say I only want one dish, or one soup, is that okay?"

Xiang Jin just shook his head, "I don't know about this yet. We all came here as a package, and we haven't done it alone. Why, do you want to go there to make vegetables and soup alone in the future?"

Then He Guizhi nodded, "Well, you also saw it today, we just need [-] cents for a spoonful of soup and water, and [-] cents for two spoonfuls, instead of [-] cents for two spoonfuls of water, There’s nothing in it, so I might as well take the [-] cents and go to the cafeteria to make soup.”

Everyone else nodded and said that what she said made sense.

So Xiang Jin said, "Okay, then I'll ask for you when I cook lunch in the afternoon."

A few people nodded, and then Zhao Xiaomei asked again, "Well, have you finished eating the packaged meals at noon every day?"

Xiang Jin nodded and said, "Are you finished?" Of course, except for the oil and water left over from the cooking.

Then Zhao Xiaomei said to herself, "That doesn't seem like much."

The enthusiasm on the faces of the others also faded.

It's not easy for Xiang Jin to say that, because for the three of them, the amount is still enough, but if it is not even, it is enough for others. If she tells others that the amount of food is okay, then others will go there What should I do if I eat and then feel disappointed?
Maybe it turned out that she was to blame for luring them over and being cheated, she would not take the blame for it!She has always been a person who doesn't like to be nosy, and doesn't like to cause trouble for herself, so let's forget it.

How they want to eat, where to eat, and whether the food is good or bad are all their own business, so she will not participate in that, Xiang Jin stayed there for a while and then left directly to go back to the classroom.
