Chapter 443: The car grows grass
In March, spring flowers bloom.
The plague emergency response in Lianhai City has just ended, and the lives of citizens are slowly beginning to return to normal.
The number of vehicles and pedestrians on the road is gradually increasing.
Major wet markets have also begun to be crowded, and roadside shops have removed signs from the epidemic prevention period and labeled them as normal for business.
People who had stayed at home during the pandemic and had their meals delivered through takeout also took to the streets.
Wet markets around residential areas are also bustling.
Schools, kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools, and universities, which have been closed for more than two months since the Spring Festival, have also begun to resume normal teaching order.
There are several canteens in the university town of Dongcheng District, Lianhai City, which are responsible for serving the food of more than 20,000 teachers and students in the university.
On the first day of school in the university town, in addition to the teachers busy teaching the students, the major privately contracted canteens began to prepare the raw materials for the second day's meals as early as the day before.
All kinds of fruits and vegetables are transported to the kitchens of major canteens.
At noon, students came out of their classrooms and flocked to the cafeterias.
The cafeteria hall was bustling, and after nearly three months of long winter vacation, the students ate familiar meals from the cafeteria.
The time of eating in the cafeteria is arranged according to the time when the students start and leave class, and there is about two hours of meal time at noon.
From the influx of students to the bustling departure of the students, it was almost 1:30 p.m.
In the corner of the cafeteria hall sat four female students, one of whom was Gu Yanan's cousin Li Xinran, who is a sophomore at the University City College of Economics and Trade this year.
The 4 girls came to the cafeteria late, because after the 4 of them got out of class, they first went to the commercial street near the university town to buy some daily chemicals for the girls, and then went back to the dormitory to put down their things before coming to the cafeteria.
Now everyone orders their favorite meal and gathers around a table to gossip.
Roommate Lin Ling took a bite of the potato stewed chicken nuggets on his plate, and asked Li Xinran beside him while eating, "Xinran, your cousin works at our Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, have you asked her about the epidemic has really passed?" Is it okay to get together for dinner like we do?
Actually, I like to eat together, but I'm worried that something will go wrong, and I'm almost stuffy for three months at home.
You know it was my dad who drove me to school yesterday, and you know what I saw before I went out?
A small piece of grass grew in the gap in front of the windshield of my car, and it was a real weed.
I haven't been out for three months, and the grass grows in my car. ”
Li Xinran has been losing weight lately, and she only has one broccoli, a little rice, and a potato and leek soup on her plate.
Li Xinran ate a piece of broccoli, shook his head and replied: "There is no grass growing in my car, but I am about to grow mushrooms when I stay at home." Compared with those of us idlers, my cousin is usually very busy, and I heard my aunt say that my cousin has not taken a vacation for nearly three months.
I rarely ask her about her work. For the understanding of the news of this epidemic, we can go through many channels, and their official account of the CDC has a detailed introduction, the emergency response has ended, there should be no big problem, but I see that the CDC on the official account recommends that we try not to have dinners, even in the canteen, we must implement a separate meal system. ”
Roommate Jingjing looked at the respective dinner plates of the four people, and nodded cutely, "Individual eats individual, this can be regarded as a meal." ”
Roommate Lin Ling sandwiched a piece of chicken from his plate into Li Xinran's plate, and said with a wicked smile, "This doesn't count as a meal, right?" ”
Li Xinran frowned, learning from his cousin Gu Yanan's appearance and tone, "Don't pick up vegetables for others, it's not good, it will spread many diseases." ”
Roommate Lin Ling pouted, "You dislike me?" ”
Li Xinran was just about to speak, but was preempted by her roommate Jingjing, "Lin Ling, Xinran doesn't dislike you, she is educating you, don't you notice that Xinran's tone of voice is sometimes very similar to her cousin?" Just like the last time we were caught by her cousin at the bar, I was really impressed by the instructive tone. ”
Li Xinran: "What Jingjing said is right, I was learning my cousin's tone just now." ”
Roommate Lin Ling remembered what happened in Meow Meow Bar last year, and still had palpitations, "The last time it was thanks to Xinran's cousin, otherwise we would have been eaten by those few people who smoked zombie bath salts, I feel creepy when I think about it, people are sometimes more terrible than the zombies in the movie." ”
Roommate Lin Ling touched his arm as he spoke, as if he had goosebumps on his body.
Lin Ling is relatively small and thin, but the amount of food is not small at all, there are two meat and one vegetable dishes on the plate, and a large bowl of rice, most of which she has eaten.
Li Xinran glanced at it and pushed his potato and leek soup in front of Lin Ling, "Potato and leek soup, I haven't drunk it, if you don't dislike it, this bowl of soup will be given to you." ”
"I don't dislike it, but you just eat a little bit? Don't even drink soup? ”
Lin Ling thought to himself that his roommate had worked hard to lose weight, and he was starving and thin.
Li Xinran shook his head, "I didn't exercise much at home during the epidemic this time, I have gained five or six pounds, I must lose it from today, and I am easy to gain weight, drinking some cold water will grow meat, let alone drinking soup." The point is that the place where the meat should grow is not long, and the place where the meat should not be grown is running upward, you look at my little belly, I won't be able to wear a skirt for another month. You helped me drink the soup, which can be regarded as a favor for me. ”
"I don't want to drink soup, why do you still want to make a serving?"
"This potato and leek soup isn't free, I originally wanted to eat a little rice and drink a soup, but I thought about it again, and the canteen also made money, so I made another broccoli."
Roommate Xiaoyu accosted, "The canteen is not bad for your money, I heard that their privately contracted canteen earns hundreds of thousands of dollars every young man."
You see, the food in our cafeteria is not very good, and the price is still so expensive.
Look at Lin Ling's potato and chicken nuggets, there are no chicken nuggets, they are all potatoes, and this shredded potato meat is also all potatoes, no meat.
My winter melon burns sea rice, and there are few sea rice that are all winter melons.
Jingjing's roast beef with Chinese cabbage is also a few pieces of beef, all of which are Chinese cabbage.
Happily, in the future, you can only drink free soup, skip meals and dishes, and donate the money you save to poor mountainous areas. ”
"Next time, you can consider ...... Actually, we can consider changing the canteen, and I heard that the canteen in the west is better than here. ”
"Isn't this cafeteria close to where we have classes and the dormitory, and it takes nearly half an hour to walk to the west cafeteria."
The four of them chatted while eating, and after eating for nearly half an hour, seeing that it was almost time for the afternoon class, they hurriedly collected the food plate and went to the sink and began to walk to the classroom.
On the way, roommate Lin Ling suddenly felt uncomfortable, and held Li Xinran beside him, his voice trembled, "Xinran, I don't feel very good." ”
"What's wrong?" Li Xinran asked worriedly, and at the same time found that his roommate Lin Ling's hands and feet were a little trembling, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his lips were blue.
"My throat is itchy, and it hurts a little, my tongue and mouth are numb, and my stomach hurts......"
Before her roommate Lin Ling finished speaking, she suddenly covered her stomach, leaned over, and threw up on the ground.
Several little girls were panicked, and their roommates vomited, this was sick, Li Xinran tried to calm down on the side, and commanded everyone, "Don't panic, let's send Lin Ling to the infirmary." ”
