After marrying a scientific research tycoon, I retired early and won

"Where are you from?"

Ji Ning pointed at herself and said, "I am a native of Yuecheng."

Jiang Zhizhi was more outgoing. "I'm from Ningcheng, which is close to Yuecheng. Xiaohan is also from Yuecheng."

Luo Xiaohan was a shy girl, and she was a little embarrassed to ask, "Where did you come from?"

"One high."

"No. 1 High School, that's the best high school in Yuecheng." Luo Xiaohan pushed his glasses, his eyes became brighter and he talked more.

Ji Ning smiled, "You were able to get into Central South University from other schools, which proves that you are also very capable."

"I...I can't..." Luo Xiaohan hesitated, "I just happened to be lucky."

The little girl is at a lively age. She looks good in anything she wears and her face is so rosy that it looks even more tender than those of people in later generations who have had cosmetic injections.

Enthusiastic and kind, Ji Ning quickly became familiar with them.

Jiang Zhizhi stared at her lips and said something, "Your lips are so red, what are you using, lipstick?"

She once put her mother's rouge on her lips, but it didn't look this good.

Ji Ning smiled but said nothing.

"You must be hungry. Wait for you to clean up and we'll take you to the cafeteria. I came here three days earlier than you, and Xiaohan came here one day earlier than you. We already know the cafeteria inside and out."

Ji Ning nodded, "Okay."

Tasting the university cafeteria is also a part of her campus life.

Central South University has three canteens in total, which rank well among all the canteens in universities across the country, so it’s a good opportunity for her to study there.

Ji Ning was surrounded by them and was about to leave the dormitory and go to the cafeteria.

Luo Xiaohan and Jiang Zhizhi looked at each other, as if they had something to hide. After a pause, Jiang Zhizhi raised her bright voice and said, "Siying, do you want to go to the cafeteria with us?"

Ji Ning: “?”

After looking around, she realized that they were talking to the lower bunk next to her. She had been in there for such a long time, and the lower bunk next to her was quiet, without any sound at all. She thought there was no one there.

After a long while, a thin, small voice came out, "I...I won't go. You guys go."

"okay."

Luo Xiaohan and Jiang Zhizhi felt relieved. When they walked out of the dormitory door with Ji Ning, Ji Ning pointed and said, "That's our classmate too."

"Yes, she arrived half a day earlier than you. Her name is Liu Siying."

Ji Ning nodded, walked to the door, and greeted the auntie who was sitting there with her hair full of curlers, "Hello, auntie."

"Okay." Auntie smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.

Jiang Zhizhi was surprised. "I thought I was outgoing enough, Ji Ning, you have become friends with the dormitory manager so quickly."

Ji Ning smiled, with a cunning look in her eyes.

Of course not, she is very busy and sometimes comes back to the dormitory late. Doesn’t the dormitory manager have to be helpful and let her in?

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria, Ji Ning looked at the sign silently, "Liyuan Cafeteria."

It turned out that her mother-in-law also told her that among the three canteens, the food in Liyuan Canteen was the worst, and the auntie who served the food there was particularly stingy.

Jiang Zhizhi: "You didn't come here a few days ago. I'm telling you, the buns here are delicious, with thin skin and lots of meat. They're much cheaper than those sold outside."

When Luo Xiaohan mentioned food, her fair face flushed. "My aunt is from the north and loves to make pancakes for me. I have a northern stomach, and the pancakes here are crispy and moist, and taste better than those made by my aunt."

"The only downside is that there are so many students and not enough seats, so we have to stand while eating. But that's okay, at most we can just take the food back to the dormitory and eat it."

Ji Ning sighed silently in her heart. It seemed that these two students had never had a good meal. "Come on, I'll take you to another place."

They followed Ji Ning half-believingly, and then after many twists and turns, they finally passed through a long path and saw a building that looked a bit like a Roman arch.

“This…is this the teaching building?”

Ji Ning said firmly, "No, this is the cafeteria."

Her mother-in-law told her not to panic when she saw the gate, but to walk in boldly. If the faculty and staff were at school, they would eat inside. This was a real canteen.

Ji Ning pulled them in, and found a completely different world inside.

There are more than a dozen windows, like small stalls outside.

Jiang Zhizhi walked to a window and took a closer look. "This is five cents cheaper than the buns in Liyuan Canteen! And they are even bigger."

Luo Xiaohan also felt that there were too many varieties here. There were many kinds of cakes that she liked: thousand-layer cakes, sauce-flavored cakes, egg cakes, egg-filled cakes, multi-grain pancakes... and they were all large in quantity and filling.

An auntie packed so much for the student in front of her that she couldn't fit any more food in. She still asked in a friendly manner, "Child, is that enough?"

This is much kinder than the fierce, black-faced aunt in Li Yuan.

If you eat here, you can get more food allowance every month. [Note: In the 80s, you didn’t have to pay tuition, and you received food allowance from the government every month.]

They both looked at Ji Ning at the same time, "Student Ji Ning, isn't this your first time here today?"

Ji Ning touched her nose and said, "I also heard it from others."

The three of them each took their favorite food. Ji Ning hesitated for a while and finally chose a bowl of beef noodle soup.

A bowl of noodles is only 20 cents, which is indeed much cheaper than outside.

The three of them sat at the table and ate with relish. Since few people knew about this place, there were plenty of seats.

Jiang Zhizhi's compliments flowed out as if they were free, "Student Ji Ning, I'm lucky to have you."

Ji Ning was struggling with the bowl of chewy noodles in front of her. There was a light red oil and some chili floating on the surface, which was fresh, fragrant and spicy. After a while, sweat started to seep out of the tip of her nose.

But the spiciness of the food makes people want to eat it more and feel addicted to it.

After finishing a bowl, she still felt a little unsatisfied.

Ji Ning has always been a person who loves spicy food, but recently she seems to like it more and her appetite has increased a bit.

Luo Xiaohan and Jiang Zhizhi were not full either, so Ji Ning bought them another bowl each. "This is my treat, as a thank you."

"Thank us?"

Ji Ning smiled, "Yes, thank you for giving me the lower bunk."

It is more troublesome to get on and off the upper bunk.

Luo Xiaohan and Jiang Zhizhi were both very nice people, so they gave their lower bunk to her and another classmate.

Luo Xiaohan and Jiang Zhizhi scratched their heads and smiled a little embarrassedly.

In fact, they do this not for any reward, but they will compare unconsciously.

Of the two students who arrived late, Liu Siying said nothing when she came, and didn't even greet them.

Ji Ning was very open and could understand their intentions.

Who wouldn't want to be friends with such a beauty?

"By the way, the instructor said that there will be a class meeting tonight. Let's go together later."
