Chapter 93: Good Omen
Qi'er worked at home alone, and Jingzhi left the old apartment alone.
In order to adapt to the school environment in advance, Jingzhi walked into the school's largest cafeteria for breakfast. She came early, the cafeteria had just opened, and there were only two middle-aged women in it taking care of the business, one fat and one thin, the contrast was obvious. Speaking of guests, Jingzhi is the only one in the empty canteen.
“ay i help you?” (Can I help you?) )
“yes, please i’d like o saages, one fried egg, o piebsp; of bread, and a bsp; of hot ilk thank you" (Okay, please help. I want two grilled sausages, an omelette, two slices of bread, and a glass of hot milk. Thank you. )
"No Proble" (No problem.) With that, the thin woman fiddles with an empty plate in one hand and a long tong in the other, then puts two sausages and a freshly fried egg on the plate, and holds two slices of bread from Fluttershy, hands them to Jingzhi, and finally gives her a glass of hot milk.
Jingzhi leaned forward, nodded slightly, and said "thank you." )
The thin woman blinked her eyes and smiled and replied "y pleasure" (no thanks.) )
Jingzhi took a few steps forward with her plate, took out her wallet, and prepared to pay.
The chubby, curly-haired woman behind the cash register couldn't help but tease at Jingzhi, "You are the first ctor this teen today, and also the only one at the ont, I have to say" (You are the first customer of this canteen today, and the only one at this time, I have to say. )
Jingzhi shrugged as she pulled out a ten-pound note from her purse, and said, "It's good to be the 'first one', isn't it?" (Being "first" is good, isn't it?) )
"I agree with you." She handed Jingzhi the change she had recovered, "Here is your ge, y darlg." )
Jingzhi took a handful of change handed over by the fat woman, counted it, no more, no less, and thanked the fat woman with a smile, "Thank you!" (Thank you!) )
The fat woman's mouth turned up slightly and replied, "You're Wele" (You're welcome. )
Jingzhi put the change in her purse and said to the fat woman, "have a nibsp; day!” (Have a nice day!) )
“thanks! you too!” (Thanks!) You too! )
After the morning run, Jingzhi was very hungry and felt that the food brought to her mouth was particularly delicious. Since the entire cafeteria was empty, she was in no hurry to leave. When she had finished eating the contents of the plate and had almost drunk the milk, she took out her textbook from her bag and sat there quietly by herself, looking through it.
After about half an hour, the people in the cafeteria gradually increased, and there were already people queuing in front of the cash register. Although she was still unsatisfied, Jingzhi had to pack up her things and leave to make room for the short-haired girl next to her, who was looking around.
"I suppose you ay sit here" (I think you can sit here. Jingzhi stood up and said to the girl, "I' leavg" (I'm leaving.) )
“really?” The short-haired girl was a little overjoyed, "Thank you!" (Thank you!) )
After speaking, she immediately put the plate in her hand on the table in front of Jingzhi and breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're Wele" (you're welcome)
When Jingzhi left, the girl had already sat down and ate with relish.
Soon after, Jingzhi climbed the stairs, pushed open the door, and quickened her pace until she reached the front desk of the college's reception.
“good , eily!” (Good morning, eily!)
Elill didn't speak, just covered her mouth with her hands. It took two seconds before she took her hand down and whispered, "jgzhe! (Good morning, Jingcane!) )
Today Eli wore a light layer of pink lip gloss with sporadic silver powder on it, which is very playful and cute.
“what’s the atter with you?” Jingzhi asked puzzled. (What's wrong with you?) )
Elily couldn't help but laugh and say, "Tell , how's y pronunciation today?" a i right?” (Tell me, how is my pronunciation today?) Am I right? )
"......" Jingzhi was a little embarrassed by Eily's words, thought about it, and had to tell the truth, "not too bad but I' afraid it's not totally rrect" (not bad. But I'm afraid it's not quite right. )
“isn’t it jgzhe?” (Isn't it "Jing Cane"?) Elily repeated with gusto.
Jingzhi was delighted to hear Eily's pronunciation getting closer and closer, praising "You're Alost there It's Jgzhi" (You're almost. It is "Jingzhi". )
“let try it aga jg…… zhi……”
“exactly!” (That's right!) Jingzhi said with a little excitement, "You're perfectly right this ti!" (You're right this time!) )
“is that jgzhi?” (Is it "Jingzhi") eily repeats again, "jgzhi? (Jingzhi?) )
"yes, yes, you're right, that is jgzhi,y given na" (yes, yes, you're right, it's Jingzhi, my name. )
Hearing Jingzhi's very affirmative answer, eill was finally relieved and said, "actually, i've been learng chese nowadays to be ho, i've been practibsp; pronounbsp; your given na before you bsp; Here I was w whether i've got the right pronunciation anyway, at least I had a try" (In fact, I'm currently learning Chinese. Honestly, I was practicing reading your name before you came here. I doubt I read it right. Either way, at least I tried. )
After saying that, she smiled shyly.
"You did wisely." Jingzhi said in an encouraging tone, "i bsp; say that you’ve got the exabsp; pronunciation of y given na, that is, jgzhi as to learng chese, you should have ore urage, and practibsp; as ubsp; as possible" (I dare say you can already pronounce my name accurately, which is "Jingzhi"). As far as learning Chinese is concerned, you should have more courage and practice as much as you can. )
“thank you for your advibsp; i will practibsp; ore" (Thank you for the suggestion.) I'll practice more. As she spoke, Elily handed Jingzhi a folder, "This is for you you know, all you need today for teabsp; are side" (This is for you. You know, all the things you need to teach today are in it. )
Jingzhi took the folder, opened it to check, and found that it was the same as last time, the contents had not changed at all, and said happily, "Greatest!" everythg is here! thank you! (Yay!) Everything is here! Thank you! )
“you’re wele good ck!” (You're welcome.) Good luck! )
Jingzhi took the folder in her hand and said, "Thank you see you ter!" (Thank you.) See you later! )
“see you!” (See!) )
Jingzhi is very glad that the teacher who was grinding and delaying for several minutes to get out of class last time did not show up today. In the UK, where everyone likes to be punctual, most students have developed the habit of arriving at class a few minutes early. Jingzhi's students are no exception. Although there were still a few minutes before the official start of the class, everyone was already seated in the classroom.
“good !” (Good morning!) Jingzhi happily greeted everyone, "I thk it's ti for to rerd your attendanbsp; for y bsp; today uld you please take out your student cards? while if you haven't got your student cards with you, you ay sign your nas on this paper." Can you get your student card out? However, if you don't have your student ID card with you, you can sign your name on this piece of paper. )
Everyone was very cooperative. Jingzhi had already scanned everyone's student cards before the class bell rang. She mentally encouraged herself, "Complete a task ahead of schedule!" Good sign! Hope everything goes so well next! ”
After that, she quickly took out a wad of paper from her bag and said in a calm tone to all the students present, "I've prted out all the questions we will disbsp; ter today and those we’re gog to deal with week the follog, before deliverg sotions, i’d like you to tell your own opions on how to solve those probles therefore, please be prepared advanbsp; so that we uld run it quickly and effitly any questions about what i jt said?” (I've printed out all the issues we need to discuss later today, as well as those we'll be dealing with next week.) Next, before providing the answers, I want you guys to share with you your own insights on how to solve those problems. Therefore, please prepare in advance so that we can proceed quickly and efficiently. Do you have any questions about what I just said? )
The students looked at each other, but no one said anything. On the contrary, the bell outside the door rang vigorously, breaking the brief silence in the classroom.
"I'd better hurry up." )
After speaking, Jingzhi quickly handed out two pieces of paper to each student, one for today's topic and one for the next week.
The computer had already been turned on, and Jingzhi had already linked the USB flash drive to the computer when she first entered the door. The display showed her first slide for today's lesson, with just a few words on the light green background, the English abbreviation of Mutas University, and the Chinese pinyin of Jingzhi's name.
The students were somewhat nervous, unsure of what was going to happen next.
