There were mostly girls in the Philosophy Department, and seven or eight well-dressed girls were gathering downstairs in the Faculty of Humanities, chatting and chatting, and from time to time there was a burst of laughter like silver bells.

On the other side, a few boys also gathered in a corner, chatting while swallowing clouds and spitting fog:

"It is said that after graduation, you will be unemployed, we didn't take it seriously before, but now we can be regarded as experiencing it! This little half a year is outside, it is a wall everywhere, and I haven't found a suitable unit until now, I knew this, I might as well grit my teeth and review the graduate school entrance examination! ”

"What you said seems to be easy to take the graduate school entrance examination, if it is really that simple, everyone can go to graduate school for further study?"

"If the young man doesn't work hard, the boss will be sad! If I had been serious when I first entered the school and didn't think about playing games and picking up girls all day long, maybe we would have been able to fight for a place to recommend a graduate student who is exempt from the examination, but now that I think about it, it will be too late to regret it! ”

"Hehe, you don't know, do you? In addition to the class leader and a few girls with excellent academic performance on weekdays, Jiang Yu also studied for the class! In the second half of the year, he will be a graduate student at Jiang University! ”

"He? His grades are not as good as mine! Why? ”

"It's just a good dish made by others, you don't really know it, do you? In the seven cafeterias he opened at school, how many people are hungry for food there every day? ”

"Let's be honest, the food cooked by Jiang Yu is so delicious! After returning to school yesterday, I ate dinner there, I still have a little bad appetite, I can't eat, but when I smell the fragrance of the food in the seven canteens, I am hungry, saliva is about to flow down, I ate half a catty of rice and five dishes at once! Hold me up ......."

"It's so delicious?! Eh, Lao Wang, you are in the same dormitory with Jiang Yu, why don't you wait for him to come in a while, tell him, how about he invite his classmates to dinner? Let's also taste what it tastes like! ”

"I don't have that face, I'm going to go by yourself!"

“……”

……

Seven canteens, in the kitchen on the first floor.

Although today is the graduation thesis defense, Jiang Yu did not rush to the School of Humanities, but came to the kitchen on the first floor early in the morning to help as usual on weekends.

During this time, more and more seniors came back, and the number of people who came here for breakfast also increased, so that like lunch and dinner, breakfast began to run out of sales.

Fortunately, this situation will only last for a short time, otherwise, the Seven Canteen will have to hire another chef.

It was busy until seven o'clock, and the canteen had already begun to open, so Jiang Yu sat down and was ready to rest for a while.

Seeing this, Lu Shuwu couldn't help but ask:

"Boss, didn't you say you were going to defend today? Why don't you go yet? ”

"The defense officially started at half past eight, why did you go there so early?"

Jiang Yu took a sip of water from the cup, let out a long breath, and said vigorously,

"It's not that you don't know, I'm very lazy, I went over so early, and I have to deal with so many people asking questions, I'm tired!"

"Hey, hey! Isn't that normal? ”

Lu Shuwu was holding a bowl of rice porridge, laughing while drinking, he said,

"If I were your classmate, I'd be curious! Others are unemployed after graduation, and you are at the peak of graduation, so you have to ask quickly, how did you rise? ”

"But come on, opening a small canteen is also called the peak?"

Jiang Yu pursed his lips and said with a nonchalant expression, "I'm at most a little trouble, just a mess." ”

The two were chatting, and Hu Zhihai's voice came from afar:

"Lao Jiang, have you had breakfast? If you eat, wait for me for a while, I'll have breakfast, and we'll go to the academy later! ”

Jiang Yu followed the sound and looked over there, only to see Hu Zhihai wearing a formal suit, dressed like a dog, and walking in from the door in a hurry.

He asked with a surprised face: "I said fat, isn't it just a graduation defense?" Are you guilty of dressing like this? ”

"Formal attire! It's formal wear! ”

Hu Zhihai walked in front of Jiang Yu in a few steps and said with a serious face,

"The graduation defense is a very formal occasion, and in order to show respect for the defense teachers, you must wear formal attire! Understand? ”

After saying this, he raised his head again, stretched out his hand to straighten the collar of his shirt, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

"How? Am I handsome? ”

Jiang Yu looked him up and down, and said slowly: "I don't know if you're handsome or not, but you're quite fat." ”

"Vulgar!" Hu Zhihai pursed his lips and added, "You are jealous!" ”

"Okay, let's stop talking, let's eat quickly."

Jiang Yu stood up from his seat, stretched for a while, smiled and said,

"When I eat, I have to go up and take a shower first and wash off the sweat on my body, so as not to stink others, which will not be good."

The two of them talked and laughed, so they each took a bowl quickly, went to the front window to find Ma Guoqiang and asked for a cold salad respectively, and brought it to the box to eat.

After eating the noodles, Jiang Yu took a tissue to wipe his mouth, and said to Hu Zhihai:

"Let's not go over so early, eight o'clock is enough, you can sit here for a while when you're full, I'll go up and change my clothes first."

"Okay, go ahead, I haven't eaten yet."

Hu Zhihai answered, then ignored Jiang Yu and continued to eat.

Just a cold mix, how can he eat enough?

At least you have to have another basket of soup dumplings, plus a bowl of preserved egg and lean porridge!

Jiang Yucai didn't bother to care how much he ate, anyway, he couldn't persuade him, and after coming out of the box, he was about to walk through the dining area and go to the second floor to take a bath.

It's meal time, and the dining area is full and noisy, and even the aisles are crowded and rubbing shoulders, and it takes a little effort to get there.

Jiang Yu followed behind the crowd, moving forward step by step, and from time to time the sound of the students' discussions could be heard in his ears:

"Eh, I heard that this is the canteen opened by Jiang Yu of our philosophy department, I seem to have a little impression of this kid, he is tall and thin, and he looks very delicate, I never thought he would have this ability!"

"Maybe people used to be low-key? Besides, look at the canteen opened by others now, it's so popular, and I haven't seen how high-profile people are, right? If it was anyone else, he would have been warped a long time ago, and I wish the whole school knew about him! ”

"I used to go out with Jiang Yu to be a tutor, hey, I really didn't expect that the food cooked by this kid was so delicious!"

"As soon as I ate this meal, I regretted it, I knew that the school had such a delicious canteen, what kind of work did I go out to work this year? I'm sure I'll stay and study for graduate school, so I can eat such delicious meals every day! ”

“……”

Listening to the bursts of discussion in his ears, Jiang Yu knew that they were all students from the same class, and there might be several others he knew.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but smile, there was no wave in his heart, he still waited for the crowd to slowly move forward, and when he reached the staircase, he stepped on it, and went up to the second floor in a few steps.

As soon as he went upstairs, his ears suddenly became clear, and he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief and walked straight forward.

Today is Saturday, and it is the day of the No. 7 dining room, and the second floor is empty, deserted, and there is no one.

Most of the waiters upstairs choose to rest today and work shifts tomorrow, as for Du Guangning, Pei Guofu and others, because there have been more people in the canteen recently, they also took the initiative to come over to help.

Jiang Yu came to the rest area behind the kitchen, found a set of clean clothes from the cabinet in the room, and then came to the bathroom and took a quick shower.

After changing his clothes, he hesitated slightly, and finally took out a pair of leather shoes that he hadn't worn for a long time, took a rag and dipped it in some water, wiped the dust on the leather shoes, and then put them on his feet.

This pair of leather shoes was bought by her grandmother by picking up rags when she was just admitted to college, and Jiang Yu only wore them once on the day of the entrance report, and then they were hidden in the shoe box and were not willing to wear them.

Now that I'm graduating, I'm going to wear it again.

This is also a beginning and an end.

After changing his clothes, he thought about it, took a printout of his graduation thesis from a drawer, and went downstairs again.

It was not yet eight o'clock, and when Jiang Yu came to the box, he saw that Hu Zhihai was still eating, and he was so angry that he almost laughed:

"You are the reincarnation of Zhu Bajie, right? I've gone upstairs and come down from the shower, and you're still eating! ”

"I'm slow, can't I?"

Hu Zhihai pursed his lips and muttered, "It's okay for me to sit here, how boring is it to wait?" ”

As he spoke, he picked up another duck paw, put it in his mouth and nibbled on it deliciously.

"Just the way you eat, I see, you will soon have to run for three hundred catties."

Jiang Yu sat down on the sofa opposite, shook his head and said,

"When the time comes, I hope your parents don't blame me for making you fat."

"Don't worry, when I finish my graduate school and I exercise in the gym, this fat will be consumed."

As Hu Zhihai spoke, he suddenly remembered something, quickly changed the topic, and said,

"Lao Jiang, I forgot to tell you, last night on my way back from my evening self-study, I ran into Lao Wang and Lao He."

Jiang Yu glanced up at him and asked, "And then?" ”

"I chatted with them casually, and I don't know why, I feel that the two of them are weird."

Hu Zhihai stopped chewing, frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said,

"Originally, I wanted to mention the dormitory party to them, but seeing them like that, I couldn't help but say nothing."

"I thought there was something amazing."

Jiang Yu leaned back on the sofa, pouted and said,

"Hurry up and eat, it's almost eight o'clock, and if you are late for the defense in a while, you can wait and cry."

"Okay, okay, don't eat it."

Hu Zhihai picked up the preserved egg and lean porridge on the coffee table and poured it into his mouth, chewed it a few times quickly, swallowed it quickly, picked up the last duck paw, stood up from his seat, raised his chin to Chong Jiangyu, and said excitedly,

"Let's go! Let's participate in the graduation thesis defense, I can't wait! ”

Jiang Yu glanced at him, saw that he was holding a graduation thesis in his left hand and a braised duck palm in his right hand, and he was speechless, he shook his head helplessly, didn't say anything, opened the door of the box, and walked out quickly.

We have to get away from this fat man quickly, we can't afford to lose that person!

There was still a distance from the seventh canteen to the building of the College of Humanities, and the bright sun above their heads made people dizzy, so the two of them didn't talk much along the way, and walked all the way with their heads down, and arrived at the College of Humanities in less than ten minutes.

At this moment, less than 20 minutes before the official start of the defense, the students who had gathered upstairs to chat and laugh had already gone upstairs, and under the arrangement of the office teacher, they sat in an empty classroom next to the defense venue, waiting for the lottery to start in a while.

After that, the graduates will enter the defense meeting one by one in the order of drawing lots to defend their graduation thesis.

At this time, there is still a period of time before the official defense, and the defense teachers have not yet come, and everyone is still sitting in the classroom in twos and threes, chatting quietly.

After all, after the graduation thesis defense, everyone will have to go their separate ways, and they will have their own life circles in the future.

Take advantage of the fact that now, if you can talk a little more, you can talk a little more.

Everyone was chatting about the day, and two people suddenly appeared at the door of the classroom, and everyone couldn't help but look up:

Ooh! Isn't this the "little transparent" in the class, and now the "big celebrity" Jiang Yu!

The chubby, hanger-like one behind him, everyone is no stranger to this, except for Hu Zhihai, the "rich second generation", no one in the class is qualified to be cynical.

Jiang Yu still didn't say anything as before, smiled at everyone, and went straight to the back of the classroom, found a small corner by the window and sat down, and then spread out the graduation thesis he brought with him and looked at it.

That appearance is still the same "little transparent" as before, neither ostentatious, nor ostentatious, nor sensationalized in order to attract people's attention.

Hu Zhihai was completely different, hooked the corners of his mouth to show a smile, nodded towards this, said "long time no see", and beckoned to that one, saying "Let's talk later", in just a few steps, he walked for several minutes.

Finally, he also came to the back of the classroom and sat down next to Jiang Yu.

As soon as Jiang Yu and Hu Zhihai sat down, the girl who had said that when Jiang Yu came, he would invite him to a treat, so she secretly came over, sat in front of Jiang Yu, and stared Jiang Yu up and down for a while.

Jiang Yu had never seen this kind of scene, he was stared at all over, he sat back a little uncomfortably, lowered his head and glanced at his clothes, and couldn't help asking:

"Wang Jia, what are you looking at? There's nothing strange about me, right? ”

"I didn't say you had anything strange on you!"

Wang Jia's personality has always been very lively, and she was also the most active person in the class, laughing all day long, and she could chat with anyone.

However, Jiang Yu was busy working part-time to make money at that time, and even if he came to class, he came and went in a hurry, and he hardly participated in the activities organized by the class, so he didn't have much contact with Wang Jia.

She grinned and said, "I just want to see if you have anything else hidden besides your superb cooking skills, but it doesn't seem to be able to tell anything from it." ”

Jiang Yu: "......"

Before he could figure out how to reply, Wang Jia came up again and asked curiously:

"Jiang Yu, I heard that you once made a banquet, and in the end someone bought it at a high price of 100,000 yuan, is this true?"

Jiang Yu glanced at her and asked, "What do you say?" ”

"I said? If you want me to say, eighty percent is true, I have eaten all the meals in the Seven Canteen for the past two days, and the food is really delicious, much better than the restaurants in the hotel! ”

Wang Jiaba smacked her mouth, as if she was still reminiscing, she stared at Jiang Yu with a pair of big eyes, and said with a smile,

"Jiang Yu, we are also classmates, and now we are going to graduate, I don't know if we can meet again in the future, then, should you invite us to a meal?"

"No problem."

Jiang Yu grinned and smiled at her.

He knew that as long as he came, someone would definitely ask for a treat.

Of course, just one meal, he naturally won't be reluctant, not to mention that these people are still classmates who have been classmates for four years.

Even if there was no intersection in the class before.

After thinking about it, he said again, "It may be too late for noon, so why don't you invite everyone to dinner?" ”

"Really?"

Wang Jia's eyes lit up suddenly, she was already very lively, seeing that Jiang Yu nodded again, she suddenly stood up with a happy face, and said to everyone,

"Students, Jiang Yu said, invite us to dinner in the evening!

This may be the last time so many of our classmates have eaten together, so remember to come then! ”

As soon as these words were finished, the students who were still whispering to each other turned their heads one after another, looked at Wang Jia in surprise, and then looked at Jiang Yu, and after a moment of silence, there was a "boom" in the classroom:

】

"Ouch, Wang Jia is really amazing, he said that he wanted to let Jiang Yu have a treat, and he really let Jiang Yu have a treat!"

"When I was interning in the field, I heard that the food cooked by Jiang Yu was so delicious that even the CEO of our company was hungry, and he was ready to book a box every week, but unfortunately he grabbed it once!"

"Jiang Yu, you can't let the students go to the cafeteria to eat, I heard that you have a private room on the second floor!"

“……”

As soon as they heard that Jiang Yu was going to invite guests to dinner, the students, who were originally a little nervous about the upcoming graduation thesis defense, suddenly became excited, and they chattered non-stop.

Some people are excited, and naturally some people are depressed.

For example, Wang Xueyi and He Tao, who were in Jiang Yu's bedroom, although they were also smiling on their faces, they felt a little bad in their hearts.

The two of them have been in the same bedroom with Jiang Yu for four years, and I haven't seen Jiang Yu say that he wants to invite the two of them to have a meal alone, like other men's bedrooms, everyone has a bedroom party or something.

Wang Xueyi and He Tao glanced at each other, and they both saw the depression in each other's eyes.

"He's having a treat at night, are you going?"

After thinking about it, Wang Xueyi came to He Tao's side and whispered,

"I'm going back in the afternoon, I still have some things at home, and when the family affairs are dealt with, I still have to go to rent a house near Beijing University and prepare for the postgraduate examination."

After a pause, he seemed to grit his teeth a little, and said again, "Even if I just lose a piece of meat, I have to be admitted to the graduate school of Beijing University this time!" ”

"Uh...... I, I'm not going to go, am I? ”

Hearing him say this, He Tao's eyes flickered a little, he hesitated for a moment, and also whispered,

"I still asked the TV station for leave, and I have to rush back to work."

The two of them put their heads together and talked for a while, no one knowing what they were talking about.

Jiang Yucai didn't bother to care who went and who didn't, he turned his head and said to Hu Zhihai:

"Fatty, you go out to see if the counselor is there, if he is, tell him too, come together at night."

"Oh oh, good!"

Hu Zhihai nodded repeatedly, got up from his seat, strode out of the classroom, and went to find a counselor.

After a while, he came back, grinned at Jiang Yu, and said happily,

"I told Lao Chen, Lao Chen was so happy, he thought he was dreaming."

Lao Chen is the counselor of their class, a senior brother of this college who graduated from graduate school two years ago, and he is not a few years older than them.

A group of people talked noisily for a while, and soon a female teacher came to the college office, knocked on the table and said to everyone:

"The defense teacher is already here, don't chatter, if you leave a bad impression on the teacher, you won't be able to finish your studies by then, don't cry!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone instantly shut up, and the classroom fell silent all of a sudden.

Seeing that they are about to graduate, many people have even found a job, if something goes wrong at this time and they can't get a graduation certificate, isn't it going to kill people?

"Now the draw begins."

The female teacher said, placing a clear plastic box for the lottery on the table, and continued,

"When the defense meeting begins, there will be teachers calling one by one, and whichever number is called, which student will go in to participate in the thesis defense.

The dissertation defense is generally 8-10 minutes over, so don't waste time by saying a bunch of nonsense during the defense, which will only affect your successful defense.

Alright, now let's come up and draw lots one by one! ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone sitting in the classroom got up one after another and stepped forward one by one to start the lottery.

"Hold the grass! What a bad luck I have...... I'm actually number 1! The first appearance of the dissertation defense! ”

"Hehe, fortunately, I'm number 8, this is my lucky number, this time the defense is stable!"

“……”

After the lottery was completed, the classroom began to squirm again, Hu Zhihai opened the lottery paper he had drawn and looked at it, and frowned:

"I'm rubbing! I actually drew the 28th, isn't it that I have to wait until the afternoon to participate in the defense?! ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to the signing paper in Jiang Yu's hand and asked, "Lao Jiang, what are you?" ”

Jiang Yu slowly opened the signing paper in his hand, glanced at it and smiled:

"No. 6, after participating in the defense, I can rush back to help Xiao Wu fry a few dishes."
