Together Forever

Chapter 23: Wash your hands and make soup (section 1)

Views:

Since we have entered the exam week, most of the classes are over.

Tong Yan has been spending this week in the library. She and Gu Ping have a tacit understanding, and try not to have any obvious intersections in the school. It's awesome, she hasn't encountered it before, but she can imagine the consequences.

She had already turned over half of the entire civil procedure law, and it took six full hours before she stopped copying concepts and rubbed the knuckles of her fingers. Looked at the phone, six o'clock.

She poked the notebook lightly with the tip of the pen, and waited very slowly.

Many people passed by, some who wanted to rush to the cafeteria to have dinner, some who came to borrow books after class just now, and some who came to grab a seat while eating time...

The phone suddenly turned on, and a text message came in quietly:

Finished reviewing? TK

Six ten ten is the time when the two people agreed.

Every morning from 8 am to 11 am, and from 12 am to 6 am, she has to review books and stop text messages.

She picked up the phone, because of the concept of copying, her fingers were already out of effort.

Then press the keyboard very slowly like this: Well, I'm finished reading the book. what are you doing

I'm waiting for you to finish reading the book. TK

where are you

Behind you. TK

Tong Yan was stunned, and turned his head subconsciously, and saw that he was sitting at the end of the long table three rows behind, but he didn't look at her. Instead, he half-supported his head, looking at the book that the squad leader handed in front of him...

When she turned her head, the monitor first saw her and said something to Gu Pingsheng.

Then, he turned his head, looked at himself with a smile in his eyes, nodded to the monitor, and said something.

It was not until the two people came and sat down that Tong Yan understood that the squad leader was carrying out a great career: set questions. The monitor frequently winked at her since sitting down. The meaning was obvious. Tong Yan was asked to cooperate with him and get as many exam questions as possible from Gu Pingsheng’s words...

"Tong Yan," the monitor turned over the printed textbook on the Civil Procedure Law she was holding. "Tong Yan is not shy, don't look at the procedural law. The judicial examination is still far away. It's rare to meet Mr. Gu and ask more about the commercial affairs of this semester. arbitration."

Rarely run into? It is true that five days have passed, but the text messages have never been interrupted.

Tong Yan looked at Gu Pingsheng calmly, his right elbow was resting on the edge of the table, he was leaning there, and he glanced at her.

"Teacher Gu, I personally think this concept is extremely important." The monitor put down Tong Yan's teaching materials with a smile and continued the topic just now.

"It's very important." Gu Pingsheng also took the civil procedure law. Looking at Tong Yan's notes above, when the monitor was looking forward to it, he added another sentence, "Actually, if you review it carefully, you will find that everything is mine. What has been said is very important."

Tong Yan smiled secretly, looking at the monitor, he was very helpless to look at himself.

She can only pretend to be innocent and harmless, and she is embarrassed to smile at Gu Pingsheng: "I'm sorry, I haven't reviewed the commercial arbitration..." The monitor was completely depressed. Seeing that I had talked with Gu Pingsheng for so long and there was no useful information, I was very depressed. He said that he had dinner with the excuse, and left the two of them.

He put down the teaching materials and picked up her notebook casually.

"Preparing for the judicial exam?"

She hummed first, and then quickly nodded: "I didn't register this year, and I am preparing for the senior exam. After reviewing the four-day final exam, I want to change my mind today, so I took the civil complaint."

He continued to look at the various notes she had made.

She had been studying for a whole afternoon, her thinking had become a little slow, and she simply lay on the table, resting her head on her arm and looking at him.

"How many times do you need to read the general laws?" He pointed to the thick brick-like laws.

She held up a finger and proudly said, "Once again, I have a good memory. I just copy the complicated ones as I read them, and I won’t forget them for four to five years. If I encounter something very important, I can say it right away. Which book is it, and which page."

There was surprise in his eyes, and she smiled even more triumphantly.

This kind of pride is different from the competition of classmates. It's more like memorizing the nine-nine-nine multiplication table at a very young age, recite it to a few math teachers in grandma's elementary school, and then see the smile in her eyes.

If you want to be good, you just want to make the people closest to you proud of yourself.

"Natural liberal arts student." He made no secret of his approval.

Tong Yan smiled warmly, put his hand down, and secretly touched his hand on the edge of the table. It was a bit cold. It should have come in from the outside just now, and it hasn't heated up yet. Her finger touched the back of his hand just now, and he held it backhand in the palm of his hand, and quickly clenched it.

There are several boys reading books behind them.

This angle was blocked by the table. Although she couldn't see it, it still made her nervous... Gu Ping seemed to have nothing happened in her life, and continued to flip through the law with one hand.

"What month of the exam next year?"

"September," Tong Yan's heartbeat was a little chaotic, and he wanted to pull it away, but in vain, "have you never taken the test? The same time every year, shouldn't it be changed?"

He shook his head: "I haven't taken the exam, and I don't seem to need it."

That's right.

Tong Yan remembered that he was just a university teacher, and it seemed that he didn't have to ask for such a thing.

"I tested the licenses of three U.S. states, but when I returned to China, it was of little use," he said with a smile, thinking of something interesting, "Ordinary also tested the licenses of two U.S. states, but it was China The judicial examination is not passed once, it seems that I have passed it twice." Tong Yan tried hard to keep himself from smiling, but still couldn't hold back: "Do you want me to be nervous..."

He kept chatting, she quietly moved her finger, and she seemed to laugh when she saw him, but she didn't mean to let go.

Usually, there are very few people chatting in the library. Maybe it’s because of dinner time, near and far, some people are chatting and laughing in a low voice. She sits restlessly for a few minutes, and finally tells her, "Isn’t I eating? I’m hungry. ."

He looked at her amused: "Stop making trouble?"

"Stop making trouble..."

She raised the white flag and surrendered, regardless of her inner strength and thin skin.

The two went to a place far away from the school. When they were almost finished eating, she said the equivalent wish of studying hard for a week: "I have been reviewing this week, and there should be nothing wrong with tomorrow."

I haven't seen him for a whole week, and I can take a rest on Saturday and be with him.

What exactly do you do? She didn't think about it.

In the end, everything was counted, but it was just another place to study.

Gu Pingsheng was absolutely deliberate. She sat in his study and rarely asked him a few questions or just a few words during a break. He never spoke Chinese...

He has underfloor heating in his house, and the room is very warm, which makes people want to sleep.

Tong Yan copied a concept three times, not a single word was bad, but in the end he didn't even remember it. She subconsciously turned the pen between a few fingers and quietly turned her head to look at him. After a while, he seemed to be aware of it and put down the book to look at her.

"Say okay first," she stretched out her hand, making a forbidden gesture, "let me rest and stop speaking English... I have finished the sixth grade of this semester."

"Did you finish?" He finally returned to normal.

She nodded. I read the book for a week, the legal concept case, the case concept legal clause... I'm almost silly.

Fortunately, he also noticed that she was deeply tortured, and finally gave up the idea of continuing to supervise.

She stood up and walked to the balcony to look at the gray sky outside.

Is it going to rain? Will it still snow

She suddenly remembered that when she first came to Shanghai, she was often laughed at by three people in the dormitory: "At that time, when I went to class in winter, I felt so miserable. They all laughed at me as a northerner and so afraid of the cold." It’s almost impossible to tell them how I collapsed when I was wearing a down jacket for the first time while holding an umbrella... Ever since I was a child, I only knew that it would snow in winter, but I didn’t know that there would be heavy rain in winter."

He peeled off a piece of toffee, put on a candy wrapper, and fed her the milky white candy: "If you are not used to it, it is better to go home directly after graduation." She bit the candy and put it in her mouth: "I must go back, otherwise No one takes care of my grandma."

In the past two years, she has regretted it because she wanted to leave the terrible environment, but she forgot that there was an old man who was getting older and needed care and company.

After the two talked for a while, it really started to snow.

Tong Yan hadn't been excited for ten minutes before it turned into rain. After all, it is the south, and the cold cannot hold up a snow.

"After dinner in the evening, I will send you back to school." He seemed to see Tong Yan eating very happily. He also peeled a piece of toffee and ate it in his mouth. He said after a while, "It's very delicious. "

She glanced at the candy paper in his hand: "What does it taste like?"

"It seems to be red beans." He pulled the sugar paper away and glanced at the name. "Ordinary people have liked to eat big white rabbits since they were young. I remember they are all white, but I didn't expect that there are also red now."

She is also from snacks.

But I have never tasted the red bean flavor... She turned around and looked for it in the glass plate on the desk for a long time before looking at him sadly: "You have eaten the last piece. There is yogurt and original flavor here. There are no red beans."

He smiled and leaned against the desk: "It's okay, there's me."

After speaking, he pulled her over, circled her in her arms, and began to bow her head seriously and fragrant her mouth...

Both of them have just finished eating toffee, their lips and teeth are sweet and greasy, where can they taste it. It's not like a movie theater. There are no confusing scene lights, no heartbeats that are rushing to break the chest... Two people just like this, you take a bite and I take a bite, and you close your eyes or open your eyes. He is the only one who is full of eyes.

The sky was getting dark, and the whole room was darkened.

She pursed her lips and smiled and turned her head away: "I think it's time to go."

"I bought a lot of ingredients last night, we will eat it at home, and then I will send you back."

Tong Yan was surprised: "Who did it?"

He smiled and asked: "You won't?"

"It will be... but it's not delicious," is there anyone who attacked suddenly like this

"It's okay, it should be better than ordinary cooking," he added, "I have a very good chopping technique."

Who knows how to cut vegetables

When she saw potato shreds with exactly the same width, thickness and length on the chopping board, and exactly the same shredded pork, she finally understood what he meant by "good technique"... "I used to use my left hand. I used to do it to practice the sensitivity of my right hand. Some deliberate practice," he took a slender knife and began to peel the loofah very quickly. "Twenty potatoes are shredded every day, so that both hands can be operated at the same time during the operation."

His hand was extremely fast, Tong Yan thought of the loofah he had shaved, it was always pitted, but the pale green loofah in his hand was evenly peeled off, just right and flawless.

He prepared a lot of dishes, and the last two fry only a few.

Tong Yan secretly experimented with asking him a few questions, only to find that he could only chop vegetables, but he was not omnipotent enough to cook rice and stir-fry vegetables. According to him, when I really wanted to eat Chinese food, I would buy some hot sauce or something, and cook it with the vegetables, even if it was dinner... But sometimes I came across Mexican chili, but it was much more spicy than what you eat in Chinese restaurants:" At that time, all the flavor was gone, only spicy, and there were many hot sauces with pepper extract to increase the heat..."

She listened, not knowing why, she felt that he needed to be taken care of...

However, there are obviously so many advantages.

He is not a wasteful person, and finally eats all the dishes before putting down his chopsticks. Tong Yan pretended to be very careless while cleaning up the dishes, looking at him and said: "Every Saturday from now on, I will cook for you."

He was about to pour her hot water, and when he saw her say this, he suddenly stopped.

"But I want to buy my own vegetables," although he couldn't hear him, Tong Yan's voice still lowered unconsciously, "you bought everything I'm not good at..."
