30. The great miracle of the wedding dress
On Monday, a student cafeteria at Xiannan University of Technology.
In a long line of cooking, Yao Yayao was at the back. Every day at meal time, the restaurant is full of all kinds of winding long snake formations, and everything has to be queued.
Yao Yayao is holding a stainless steel lunch box in one hand and a mobile phone in the other. "Family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, everything is concerned." He has always liked to read all kinds of news reports, especially from various scientific circles.
Among the large number of students in line, there are many people like Yao Yayao who are staring at the screen of their mobile phones. But there are also many male and female students, who do not have mobile phones in their hands, but books in their hands. The books have one small feature in common, the outer shells are wrapped in colorful translucent plastic covers.
I was still reading a book when I was queuing up for food?! Yao Yayao felt a little fresh, and admired the diligence of those senior brothers and sisters in his heart, but he didn't feel anything.
The Long Serpent Formation is slowly advancing. The area of the restaurant is very large, covering thousands of square meters. The many dining tables are full of university students who cross the river. There was a slightly surprising vision that there were many students who were still reading books while eating. The shells of these books are also mostly wrapped in colorful translucent plastic covers
In the corner of a seating room in a remote cafeteria, two gray-haired elderly professors looked up with a slightly surprised look at the students who were reading while eating, and then talked in a low voice.
"Still reading while eating?? Lao Liu, how many years have you not seen this kind of scene?? This scene reminds me of the time when we were in school! This is a special scene that only appeared on campus 40 years ago. That's what we used to do back in the day. One of the old professors with thick eyebrows said slowly.
"A large number of students love to read books, and it only started last semester. For nearly a decade before that, those students would just go around with their phones. Perhaps, the atmosphere on our college campuses has started to improve a little since last year, right?! Professor Liu replied, looking slightly puzzled.
"The anti-intellectual slogan of 60 long live has been popular for many years, and the world is declining. Nowadays, many universities do not look like universities at all, but just assembly line factories for graduation diplomas. The big change in school spirit since last semester is too sudden, is there any deep mystery behind this, or other background factors?! I always felt that it was unlikely that those students would suddenly change their minds and become so eager to learn all of a sudden. The old professor with thick eyebrows said again.
"I noticed something very special. In my professional classes, most of them used to be in Cao Ying's mental distraction in Han, but recently they have been circulating some professional books on various disciplines to each other, and they have studied very seriously. By the way, those books have a striking feature, the covers are all colorful translucent plastic book covers. If I don't have time, I'll ask a few students to find out. Professor Liu said.
"You have to find out. Xiao Cheng, the administrator of the library, complained to me that since the first half of last year, the students who came to borrow books without stopping were overcrowded almost overnight, and the venue was also overcrowded. There has never been anything like this in the last decade or so. Now she has a lot of work every day, and she is much more tired than before. The old professor suddenly remembered something.
"You have to figure out why all of a sudden, the students are so hungry that they love to read. I always felt as if there was a mysterious force behind them, pulling them along. It shouldn't be that simple. The thick-eyed old professor said one more thing.
"Okay, I'll figure this out later." Professor Liu said.
When Yao Yayao returned to the dormitory after lunch, Huang Jie had already come back before him. However, Pang Zi was nowhere to be seen.
Yao Yayao didn't care, and climbed up to the top bunk to clean up the mosquito nets and fold the quilt. In the morning, I am usually in a hurry, and I don't have time to make the bed, which is usually done at noon.
Pang Zi is back. He seems to have a couple of magazines in his hand or something. As soon as he entered the door, he was furious, slammed the magazine in his hand on his bed, and shouted loudly:
"Whew! I have never seen such a shameless person in my life!! Lao Tzu actually stayed in the same dormitory with such a shameless person, it was simply shameless!! ”
While scolding angrily, he hurried to the desk of another roommate who had never appeared, classmate Li Xiaogang. He picked up a few of Li Xiaogang's private books and slammed them to the ground. Moreover, he lifted one foot vigorously and stepped on the top of the book a few times.
Although Li Xiaogang never appeared in this dormitory, he did leave some simple daily necessities, as well as some books and other things.
As if it wasn't enough to relieve his anger, Pang Zi continued to walk under Yao Yayao's upper bunk, that is, in front of Li Xiaogang's bed, and stretched out his hand to pull it vigorously. Suddenly, the tether broke, tearing off half of the white mosquito nets that had been tied.
"Such a sinister and despicable villain, Lao Tzu gets angry when he sees his things!!" Pang Zi continued to scold.
Yao Yayao, who was on the top bunk, and Huang Jie, who was playing a game, couldn't help but be stunned by Pang Zi's unexpected behavior.
"Fatty, why did our classmate Li Xiaogang you off?! Why are you so angry? Huang Jie stood up and asked with some confusion.
"Alas! I'm fighting for Yayao! Yayao originally got a great opportunity for the whole school to make a name for himself! It's good now, it's all given away in vain, and it has become someone else's wedding dress! That rich second generation is simply shameless, how can he openly rob others of credit for nothing?! Pang Zi said angrily.
"Ah, why did you get involved with me?!" Yao Yayao couldn't help but be very confused.
"You two, read the latest magazine reports at school for yourselves! As soon as you open it, you can see it. Pang Zi returned to his bed, picked up the magazine he had just brought in, and threw one to each of the other two.
This magazine is "Summer University of Technology", which is an internal campus semi-monthly magazine for all students of all grades in the school.
With some confusion, Yao Yayao reached out and grabbed the magazine that Pang Zi threw over. Before he opened the magazine, the color page cover on the magazine had already attracted his attention.
An extremely handsome, tall, sunny boy with curly hair was standing on a balcony looking out into the distance. His eyes were condensed and resolute, with the appearance of looking at the world. The background of the place where he stood was very familiar to Yao Yayao. Because, that's the cardboard and plastic water bottle air conditioner cooling device that the three of them tossed out!
This photo was apparently taken in the 216 dormitory where he is located. The boy in the photo is standing on the balcony, and someone is looking up from the downstairs of the dormitory building to the balcony above.
"It's not the balcony of our dorm room! Who is this person? I've never seen it before. When did he take pictures on our balcony? We don't know. Yao Yayao asked stupidly.
"Isn't this person Li Xiaogang! He's our roommate we've never met! Phew, Lao Tzu didn't recognize him as a roommate! I can't stay in this dormitory anymore, and I'm going to apply to move out of this dormitory. The one who is close to the ink is black, and I have to learn from Meng's mother to move three times. Pang Zi said angrily.
"Oh! That's him! This kid looks pretty handsome! The rich second generation is really well nourished, at least the appearance is much higher than the three of us. Yao Yayao was still giggling.
"Yayao, you can still laugh! Do you know why he's standing on the edge of the balcony? Hurry up and turn the first page to see! Pang Zi was reminding.
