Chapter 53: Lin Yuxun's growth

There are several student apartments in this university, and there is also a cafeteria, and eating in the cafeteria is much cheaper than outside.
Of course, even if you eat cheaper than outside, it's not free, and universities are not public schools in poor communities.
In addition to eating in the cafeteria, you can also cook your own meals. The student apartments here are one for one. Each student apartment uses an area of ​​about 20 square meters. There is a room and a hall where you can make some simple meals. .
Lin Yuxun slept in Shi Wenzheng's foldable bed in the small living room all night. He got up early the next morning. He put his quilt in a closet and put it in a cabinet. Then he went back to the cafeteria to buy two breakfasts.
The breakfast in the cafeteria is much better than the free breakfast in public schools, but the type is similar, such as sandwich burgers. Obviously, the food company outside sends it to the school, and then sells it again at the school.
Schools here are basically doing this.
After having breakfast, Lin Yuxun proposed to go for a walk.
Shi Wenzheng wanted to accompany him, but Lin Yuxun refused. He didn't bother Shi Wenzheng too much.
Lin Yuxun spent a morning in the neighborhood to learn about the school and the situation around the school, and bought some ingredients. It was not early when he returned. He went to the cafeteria to buy another lunch.
When he went out, Cheng Hao gave him all their money, a total of 2,500 dollars.
He didn't want to spend all this money.
Cheng Hao fists to make money, he reads comfortably outside ... he can't do this, he will feel too horrible.
He wants to find a way to make money, and if he can't make money, he tries to save as much as possible, such as cooking, he can do it himself.
Basically, the ingredients purchased in the supermarket have undergone a simple treatment. It is fast to cook these foods. It will not take much time, but it can save a lot of money.
And Cheng Hao said that people ca n’t study all the time. They always have to take a break in the middle and exercise. He decided to go out to buy food as exercise and cook as a break.
When Lin Yuxun returned to Shi Wenzheng's apartment, Shi Wenzheng was still studying in the room. He put the set meals bought by the cafeteria on the table, and then took out the ingredients to cook.
Chicken wings are cheap here, so he bought a little chicken wings to stew potatoes, then fried a green vegetable, and made a tomato egg soup.
The latter two dishes were taught by Cheng Hao, and he often made them when he was at home.
When Lin Yuxun prepared the tomato soup and vegetables, the potato stewed chicken wings had scented.
Although no seasoning is added, the chicken soup is very delicious, and this pot is particularly fragrant.
"What's the smell? What did you buy?" Shi Wenzheng opened the bedroom and was excited when he saw the stir-fried vegetables on the table: "Fried vegetables!"
This kind of green vegetables bought by Lin Yuxun is just a kind of green vegetables, which Shi Wenzheng has never seen in China.
But even so, this is fried vegetables!
Not to mention that Lin Yuxun does not only make stir-fried vegetables, he also makes egg flower soup! Made potato stewed chicken!
Shi Wenzheng took a deep breath: "I didn't expect you to cook again! I haven't seen such home-cooked food for two years! Two years!"
Since going abroad, Shi Wenzheng has been eating foreign food.
He doesn't have the opportunity to eat meat in China, and he doesn't reject things like burgers, but he misses rice in China very much.
There are stir-fried dishes, egg flower soup ... He also moved these home-cooked dishes when he saw them.
"You like these? You can eat more," Lin Yu said. "But my cooking skills are not very good."
Lin Yuxun said, and served a plate of potato stewed chicken wings to Shi Wenzheng.
Shi Wenzheng doesn't have chopsticks here. He used a fork to put a piece of potatoes into his mouth. Although he was burnt, he still couldn't help slackening. "Why is your cooking skill bad? Your cooking skills are so good! It's so fragrant!"
Lin Yuxun's cooking skills are actually average. After all, he hasn't studied it. In the United States, he lacks all kinds of spices and can't find the ingredients that Cheng Hao wants.
For Cheng Hao, Lin Yuxun's food is really not so delicious.
But Shi Wenzheng is a man of this era. When he went out to study, domestic materials were very absent. Cheng Hao's various seasonings in modern times, before 1980, there were actually many in China that were not available.
At the time, many people had only three things: oil, salt and soy sauce.
At the same time, because the supplies are not abundant, they also make clear soups and are not delicious.
Shi Wenzheng's family is in good condition, but his mother can't bear to put too much oil in cooking, and it is rare to eat chicken stew.
Lin Yuxun's cooking is very good for Shi Wenzheng!
One thing is missing now: "What about rice?"
Potato soup with chicken and stew in rice, he can eat three bowls in one breath! Wen Zhibin's Shi Wenzheng now has an appetite.
"Rice?" Lin Yu looked for a moment. "I didn't buy rice. I will eat potatoes today."
To Shi Wenzheng, potato stewed chicken is a dish, in fact Lin Yuxun used it as a staple food.
For him, this is a food that is easy to make, tastes good, and puts the staple and meat together, no different from a burger.
He held his plate of potato stew and ate it.
Shi Wenzheng: "..." Shi Wenzheng could only eat vegetables for a meal.
He missed rice even more.
Lin Yuxun had eaten a meal, so he borrowed a book with Shi Wenzheng to read.
Being in a strange environment and getting along with a stranger like Shi Wenzheng, he was actually a bit accustomed to it, but when he started reading, he forgot everything around him.
When he knew he could use Shi Wenzheng's library card to borrow books from the library, he was even more happy.
It's a pity that the library hasn't opened these days.
On the first day, Lin Yuxun did nothing except to adapt to the environment, but the next day ... Lin Yuxun knocked on the door of other students in the apartment building, introduced himself, and said that he would be in the morning every morning. Go to the supermarket to buy things. If they have something to bring, he can help them bring it.
This school is one of the top schools in the United States. The vast majority of students here are American students, but there are also international students from other countries. Most of the students living in this apartment are international students.
Although it is a holiday period, most of the international students do not go home and live here.
It was freezing cold, and many people were unwilling to go out. When they heard that Lin Yuxun was willing to help them bring things, many people were very excited, and even some people immediately said that they wanted Lin Yuxun to bring things.
Lin Yuxun wrote it down and took it for them.
He told Shi Wenzheng about this.
"Do you want to have a good relationship with them?" Shi Wenzheng said, "In fact, this is not necessary."
"I want to have a good relationship with them, maybe there is a tip." Lin Yu seeks.
Cheng Hao said that knowledge is important in college, but network is equally important.
He is not a formal student now, and no one will take the initiative to deal with him.
As for tipping ... the people here are actually not short of money. They pay him more for the things they buy, and they do n’t charge for them.
Of course, he values ​​money and hopes to get his own living expenses in this way, but he will not only focus on this money. Relatively speaking, it is definitely more important that people are connected.
At the same time, if he really meets arrogance, he will not deal with others.
Cheng Hao said that they are equal, and dignity is very important.
What Lin Yuxun said was not humble or overbearing, Shi Wenzheng looked at him, suddenly a little admired.
The following days, Lin Yuxun was very busy.
He would go out twice a day to buy things and cook at home, and the rest of the time he used to read books.
He even took a special book and wrote down some key points in the book, and then when he went out to buy things, he would take a look on the road.
Shi Wenzheng is not an introvert, but when he went abroad, he faced a large group of people with different skin colors, and he still did n’t communicate very much. Most of the people who lived in the same apartment building did not know him.
However, it took only a few days for Lin Yu to come here, and he was able to call out the names of most of the people he met on the road. Those who could not call them were just because he hadn't communicated with each other yet.
Not only that, Shi Wenzheng also found that the people here really liked Lin Yuxun, even with them, some people who were not familiar with him now would greet him.
Gradually, Shi Wenzheng didn't look at Lin Yuxun as a child: "When I first saw you, Cheng Hao was talking all the time. You didn't say much. I thought you were a shy person. Thinking of you so lively. "
"I'm not lively at all," Lin Yuxun said. He was actually afraid of communicating with others, and even dared not to talk to others. He preferred to live in Shi Wenzheng's apartment every day to read a book.
But he can't do that, he needs to grow.
So, with a little utilitarianism, he took the initiative to contact the people in this apartment.
But he kept his heart, never greedy for cheap, and maintained this feeling.
Shi Wenzheng only said that Lin Yuxun was playing. He didn't take it seriously, and Lin Yuxun didn't explain anything.
He went to the bank to open an account for himself, and after the library opened, he spent most of his time in the library.
He is a yellow man. In this university, he is not the only one, but also the only one. He is conspicuous enough to make people impressive ... Lin Yuxun reads various books and observes people in the library. Take up the courage and ask the professors in the school various questions.
Cheng Hao said that if you want to apply for a chance, you want to apply for a university, and you just send an e-mail. People may put it aside, but find people a few times to make people have an impression on you. They may accept it. is you.
Among many similar people, they must choose the one they know well.
He worked hard and he did very well.
