Boring 21st Century 7 Eat
"It's better to call Xie Yongqing too, you just moved in, let's get together." When he went out, Han Le suddenly proposed.
Of course, Qiao Yiyu has no reason to object.
Xie Yongqing was on the subway home when he answered the phone, and he was a little surprised by Han Le's suggestion - yesterday he swore that he would never get along with Qiao Yiyu, but he didn't expect that his attitude would change 180 degrees in 24 hours, it seems that in front of beautiful women, men's defense is negative.
Of course, he also welcomed this suggestion - he was worried that he had no excuse to approach Qiao Yiyu, so he made an appointment with a small restaurant where they often ate, Xie Yongqing estimated it, and said that he would arrive in about twenty minutes.
The restaurant is at the entrance of the community, and the two of them have already gone out when they call, so it didn't take long for the phone to be put down, it was already more than six o'clock in the evening, it was the meal, when the restaurant was busy, when Han Le and Qiao Yiyu went in, most of the tables inside were full, Han Le was hesitating whether to change the house, and the waiter came to greet him: "There is a seat upstairs, and the guests at the table have just left." ”
Han Le instinctively glanced at Qiao Yiyu, and saw that there was no dissatisfaction on her face, so he nodded, and the waiter took them upstairs and sat down at a small table.
"Whatever you like, you can eat." Han Le himself is not good at being polite, and he is not good at being polite to others, so he just said it so simply.
Qiao Yiyu still can't tell whether a sentence is a real "polite word", but she has basically given up the idea of discernment, if she has to think about everything completely and thoroughly, then she doesn't have to do anything, and she also understands that the more time other people spend with her, the more they will understand their behavior patterns, and after understanding enough, this superficial politeness will gradually disappear, she just advanced the process a little.
Qiao Yiyu basically doesn't know the name of the dish on the menu, and she doesn't remember it, but this is not a problem, because in this era, ordering is not facing the production line, she just needs to say to the waiter: "Just fry a few light vegetarian dishes." That's fine, the waiter here won't let her play a random little game to determine how much "whatever" is.
With the vegetarian dishes, Han Le ordered another sauerkraut fish, and added a pot meat that Xie Yongqing had always ordered - they were not tired of eating these two dishes here.
"Are you used to living here?" The two of them couldn't sit and wait face to face, they always had to say something, since Qiao Yiyu didn't speak, Han Le felt that he should take this responsibility.
"It's good," it was better than Qiao Yiyu expected before, "It's not cold if you don't turn on the air conditioner." ”
Han Le doesn't think so, if he doesn't turn on the electric blanket on this kind of day, he will definitely not be able to sleep at night, but when he sees that Qiao Yiyu is only wearing two layers of clothes along the way, he understands that the other party's physique is not at the same level as himself, and he doesn't think it's strange when he thinks of the first time he saw Qiao Yiyu on her horizontal bar.
In fact, when Han Le and Xie Yongqing usually go out to eat, although the two usually don't talk much, they can still talk a lot when they need to talk, but Qiao Yiyu and him are still strangers after all, and just like Xie Yongqing said, her beauty shrouds her with an invisible aura, Han Le shook his head and looked around, and after drinking two cups of tea, he felt a little uncomfortable sitting down, and he muttered every few dozen seconds: "Why hasn't Xie Yongqing arrived yet." "I don't know if Qiao Yiyu is annoyed, anyway, he is annoyed.
At first, Qiao Yiyu thought that Han Le was really anxious, and she couldn't understand why, but after observing it for a while, she felt that Han Le seemed to be a little nervous, which reminded her of some relevant descriptions of information flooding in historical materials: because of long-term and excessive exposure to information, the cerebral cortex has been in a state of tension for a long time, and once this continuous stimulation is lost, it will form a psychological gap, causing symptoms such as low mood and restlessness...... Before people realized the need for information regulation, information dependence affected humanity for almost centuries......
It is only the beginning of the 21st century, and the "information revolution" has only begun for a few decades, but judging from the many remarks Qiao Yiyu has seen on the Internet and the understanding in reality, many people have begun to realize that there are worries about their future...... Of course, they can't be conclusively determined, because this kind of distress also represents the progress of the whole society, after all, this is an era of rapid abundance of material and spiritual wealth, and science has allowed human beings to produce and consume so unscrupulously for the first time, just like a person who has been under the threat of hunger for a long time, and will naturally eat a little more when he sees a table full of food......
"Have you ordered the food?" Xie Yongqing walked over from the staircase with a notebook shoulder bag and said to Han Le, Han Le was almost relieved, "Order, you have to feel that it is not enough to order again." ”
Xie Yongqing and Han Le sat down side by side, nodded to Qiao Yiyu and said, "By the way, you stayed up late last night, I see that your dark circles haven't disappeared." "Actually, no, Xie Yongqing is a new pick-up trick for colleagues to ask.
Qiao Yiyu didn't even know what dark circles were, and the auxiliary program was not omnipotent, so it was not written in the database he brought, so he could only guess the approximate meaning based on the context: "Fortunately, I don't feel sleepy." ”
"Girls still have to go to bed early," Xie Yongqing said with a picture of a passer-by, and then changed the conversation, "I see that you wrote a night yesterday, are you writing a novel?" ”
"I'm just practicing calligraphy," Qiao Yiyu said a little embarrassed, "My handwriting is too bad." ”
"Who's good writing now," Xie Yongqing took the initiative to excuse Qiao Yiyu, "all typing on the computer...... Han Le and I are not good at words, he is a crab body, and I am a dog * reptile body...... When I was a child, my dad also forced me to practice and made me write a large sheet every day, but I used three ballpoint pens to write and was almost beaten. Xie Yongqing said with a smile while simulating the movements with three chopsticks.
Today's Xie Yongqing is a little deliberately active, but Han Le doesn't think it's strange, in fact, he is also a little deliberately inactive.
Fortunately, Qiao Yiyu reacted relatively quickly, and smiled cooperatively after realizing that this was a joke, so he didn't let Xie Yongqing's efforts go in vain, and the dishes came up after a while, the main dish was sauerkraut fish first, and the three of them were almost filled with a small basin, which made people very appetizing.
It's not for nothing that Huaxia people like to chat at the dinner table, and after eating, the performance of the two began to normalize, although Qiao Yiyu said very little, but she listened very seriously.
"Journalists?" When Han Le mentioned that Qiao Yiyu wanted to be a reporter, Xie Yongqing became interested, "This is very hard, running around...... A few days ago, our boss gave an interview, and it was in the newspaper, and it was blown ......"
Qiao Yiyu took what he had just read on the Internet, and now he is learning and selling: "What kind of work you do, you can't endure hardship." ”
"That's right, but there's still a difference," Xie Yongqing nodded, and then began to complain, "Tell you, you may not believe it, I sometimes really envy the cleaning aunt in our laboratory building, sweeping the floor and wiping tiles every day, the amount is not large, it is not annoying, and the salary is not low...... I'm a master's student, and I help my boss die countless brain cells in the laboratory all day long, but the money is not as much as she gets, so it's really a free labor force......"
Han Le had heard similar words from Xie Yongqing's mouth countless times, and for a while it was almost to the point that he had to scold the boss every day when he came back, and Han Le comforted him as before: "I still envy you...... You still have a hope in the future, and you will be a doctor when you come out, I ...... If it weren't for these two houses, I don't know what it would have been. ”
"Doctor's top P use...... If the doctor can change houses, I don't want a line like Shenhai, just in my hometown Belvedere...... I don't say a word, I'm tired and ......."
Xie Yongqing's words reminded Qiao Yiyu of Zhou Hai's impressive words - "Desperately make money", it seems that this is not all an exaggeration.
Fortunately, Xie Yongqing's complaint did not last forever, after all, there is still something to be proud of in his work, and then he talked to Han Leyang about how many years the domestic genome sequencing technology has lagged behind foreign countries, and what new progress has been made in the world recently, he saw that Qiao Yiyu listened very seriously, and took out a new joke he learned: "Qiao Yiyu, you should be mixed-race, right?" ”
"Half-blood?" After Qiao Yiyu understood the meaning of this word, she admitted it in her heart, but she still said, "I don't know." ”
"Your pupils are a little pale in color, slightly blue, and your face is a little three-dimensional," Xie Yongqing said as he tugged, "Why don't you contribute a hair to me, and I'll test you to see where your ancestors are?" ”
Qiao Yiyu is not very skeptical of the technology of this era, but what she is puzzled is: "There doesn't seem to be DNA in the hair." ”
Xie Yongqing was stunned for a moment, then reacted and sarcastically said to Han Le: "Look at people...... You still dare to call yourself a sci-fi fan, and all the creatures in high school are returned to the teacher. ”
When Xie Yongqing used this trick to tease Han Le for the first time, Han Le didn't realize what was wrong, but he didn't understand it until he checked it on the Internet.
"Hair roots...... To complete the hair. Xie Yongqing and Han Le said, in fact, hair is not the key, the key is the cost, the average hospital will not do a DNA paternity test at most more than 10,000, but if you compare the genes retroactively...... That's often done as a research topic, and it's not that simple.
But apparently Qiao Yiyu doesn't know so deeply, she only has a general impression of the biotechnology of this era - the human genome project should have just started, and the sequencing has not been completed, let alone judge the function of each gene on this basis - the reason why she remembers these is entirely because the teacher of the "history of scientific development" said a related sentence, he said that people in the 21st century know far less about themselves than about the outside world......
Of course she won't give Xie Yongqing this opportunity, if he really analyzes the past, he was scared out of something good or a trivial matter, if this discovery is made public, the entire human society will be shaken by this, she is only here for the purpose of evacuation, by the way to satisfy her historical hobby, not to be a prophet.
"Forget it," Qiao Yiyu took off his hat and showed off his short hair that had just grown, "There aren't many ...... in total."
"You're so pretty, why don't you have long hair." Xie Yongqing said with some regret, short hair is probably Qiao Yiyu's only shortcoming, which makes her look more neutral and less feminine, but this is more consistent with Qiao Yiyu's personality so far.
"If you think your head is long* bright, why don't you keep it." Qiao Yiyu asked rhetorically.
"Who said I didn't keep ......" Xie Yongqing smiled proudly, took out his mobile phone and found a photo to show her, in the photo, Xie Yongqing has shoulder-length hair, and braided into many thin pigtails, holding a guitar in his hand, a standard wandering decadent art style, "How about it, it's not bad." ”
"Then why don't you keep ...... all the time?"
"The school doesn't let ......" is mainly because the family doesn't let it, and this style almost didn't let his father beat him out when he returned home.
"How well do you play the guitar?" Qiao Yiyu is still a little interested in this, and it is rare to see a few familiar things in this world.
"I've been studying for more than a year and can play a few pop songs...... also sold art with Han Le on the flyover. Of course, Han Le only collects money and takes the lead in applauding, although Xie Yongqing is really not very good at singing, that level can fool his first girlfriend.
"I've also studied for a while," Qiao Yiyu said, "but I haven't touched it for a long time, I'm afraid it's rusty." ”
"It's a good thing to see...... I'll play it when I go back. Xie Yongqing was energetic, it was not easy to have a common language with a beautiful woman, and then turned his head and asked Han Le, "Qin, you didn't throw it away as garbage, did you?" After graduating from his senior year, Xie Yongqing threw a lot of "processed products" at Han Le.
"No, I've used it a few times......" Han Le also thought about learning a musical instrument, but maybe it was because his motivation was not as strong as Xie Yongqing's, he just thought the guitar was good, so naturally he didn't have the energy that Xie Yongqing had back then......
"By the way," Xie Yongqing thought of an idea, "Can you let Qiao Yiyu teach you." ”
Han Le glanced at Qiao Yiyu and instinctively refused: "Forget it, it's not this material." ”
The more you eat the less and less the dishes, but the more the topic is talked, especially Han Le and Xie Yongqing, the two of them have the same smell, coupled with the existence of Qiao Yiyu, they are even more unconscious, when checking out, the two rushed to perform, Qiao Yiyu still doesn't know how to distribute the responsibility for this meal, and just revealed a little meaning that they can pay, the two of them desperately blocked back: "How can there be a reason to make a woman pay for dinner." ”
The so-called following the local customs, since they insisted, Qiao Yiyu didn't say anything.
On the way back, Xie Yongqing talked about work again, and Han Le suddenly asked, "Do you think I should go out and find a job?" ”
Xie Yongqing looked at him for a while: "I remember you said this several times...... Shenhai is so big, I really want to find it, go to the talent market and throw more resumes...... Don't keep talking at home. Xie Yongqing has also seen it in the past few years that Han Le is a standard gentleman in life - he only talks but doesn't do anything.
"Talent market?" Qiao Yiyu said with concern, "Isn't it possible to submit resumes online?" ”
"You heard Han Le say this, he said this because he was afraid of going out," Xie Yongqing said, "It's not impossible to find it on the Internet, but people still have to interview, many times it's 7 out of 10 that you go in to take a look, either he doesn't look down on you, or you don't look down on him, the efficiency of the talent market is much higher, and if you chat a few words in person, you probably know if you have a show...... The most important one is the attitude, the online resume is not sincere to cast a net everywhere, and the company is not sincere to accept all the orders, anyway, it doesn't cost money, and the talent market will be larger, after all, both sides have to spend more costs......"
Xie Yongqing made another tirade, neither of them had the right to speak against it, so they could only listen quietly, Qiao Yiyu felt that what he said was right, especially when he learned that the talent market was almost full of people, and he felt that he had to go once - unlike the ordinary market, that is where the "job opportunities" are traded, and people are the cells that make up history.
Seeing that Qiao Yiyu had plans to go, Han Le also felt that it was time for him to change his current lifestyle, so he agreed to go back and help check the time of the recent talent market activities - by the way, he also put together his resume that was still in the computer and had not been touched for several years.
"Han Le, it's really hard for me to imagine what it's like for you to go to work," when he got home, Xie Yongqing, who was walking in front, teased him when he opened the door, and said, "What type are you going to look for?" I remember your major was software? ”
"I'm just looking for a job to pass the time," Han Le said honestly, "I've been at home for a long time, and I feel like I'm really getting moldy...... As for majors, if you don't mention it, I'm afraid I won't be able to think of any majors......"
"Guitar, quick, get the guitar!" When he entered the door, Xie Yongqing immediately reminded him.
The guitar hasn't moved for several months, and the two big men are not diligent people, and they have accumulated a thin layer of ash, but everything else is okay, the tone is accurate, and the strings are not rusty, Xie Yongqing picked up the guitar, changed the chords a few times not very skillfully, and then sighed: "The fingers are stiff, all of them are harmed by the test tube and pen." ”
After speaking, he handed the guitar to Qiao Yiyu: "You try it, and let us appreciate it." ”
Xie Yongqing didn't have a lot of hope for Qiao Yiyu's level, after all, his first impression of Qiao Yiyu was a solo gymnastics girl, but even if Qiao Yiyu was just a beginner and played some classic pop songs, he wouldn't feel strange, anyway, he just said yes. But Han Le is different, seeing Qiao Yiyu holding the piano and adjusting his posture, he seriously found a chair and sat down - I believe that anyone who has read the soft copy like Han Le will behave like the current Han Le.
Qiao Yiyu tried a few notes, and then started, when the first few notes came out, Xie Yongqing secretly recalled similar song titles, but after thinking about it for a long time, it was fruitless - he was only an amateur after all, but even if he was born in a professional class, it was impossible to hear it, and it was really hellish to be able to hear it - it was the music of Qiao Yiyu's era.
The sound of the piano is sometimes gentle, sometimes rapid, it belongs to the kind of music with a dazzling and changeable style, which may not be very acceptable aesthetically, but one thing is for sure - Qiao Yiyu's guitar level is definitely stronger than theirs, and that is enough.
After the song ended, the two naturally praised each other, but they didn't know what to say after praising it, if they talked about music, it was estimated that they would only be despised, and after the atmosphere cooled down, Han Le and Xie Yongqing went back to their rooms, leaving only Qiao Yiyu to surf the Internet in the living room.
But it was only a few minutes later, Xie Yongqing came to the living room with his notebook and tome to "check the information", Han Le because he slept very little yesterday, he felt a little sleepy just now when he listened to music, and he was going to play with the computer but now he was too lazy to turn it on, and after washing, he climbed into bed and prepared to sleep, and when he closed his eyes, he suddenly remembered one thing - he was woken up by the alarm clock at 5.30 this morning, did he adjust the alarm clock time backwards?
But he didn't do it, because he knew that from today onwards, his early waking would no longer be a problem.
