Chapter 16 Ye Yuqing: Which university do you want to apply to?

Chapter 16 Ye Yuqing: Which university do you want to apply to?
"You took the train for three days and two nights?"

"It's so uncomfortable, does your butt hurt?"

Grandma Cai looked at her eldest grandson Liu Lang with heartache, "You have suffered a lot these years."

Liu Lang stared at the wide noodles on the table in a daze, "Grandma, do you have any hot sauce?"

Lin Meixia, Zhang Yiming and Guo Yixing couldn't eat the noodles because they were too bland.

There were only a few vegetables in the noodles, not even a fried egg.

This is far from the KFC they had for lunch.

The southwest has always been a region with heavy flavors, but for Shanghai flavor, not putting sugar in the noodles is considered good.

"We don't have any hot sauce at home right now. I'll go buy it for you tomorrow."

Liu Lang looked around the house for a long time. From the moment he stepped into the house, he was expecting someone to appear.
"Grandma, where is my dad? Why hasn't he come out to recognize me yet?"

Grandma Cai's face changed slightly, and she looked a little flustered, "Your father...he..."

Liu Jun came over in time and said, "Your father is on a business trip and will not be back for a while. Don't worry, your father will come back."

Liu Lang was smart since he was young, and he could see that his uncle and grandmother were just being perfunctory with him.

"Come and eat roast duck. Grandpa bought you a roast duck."

Liu Guangqing was worried that his grandson would come on the first day and see that where they lived was not as good as where he lived in his hometown, and the food was not as good as where he lived in his hometown.

I went out specifically to buy a spicy roast duck.

When the outspoken Guo Yixing saw that it was just roast duck, he started talking about the KFC they had for lunch.

After taking a bite, he said with a hint of disdain, "It's not as good as KFC."

Zhang Yiming kicked his foot and gave him a look.

When Guo Yixing saw Liu Guangqing's ugly face, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"It's okay. Let your uncle take you out to play tomorrow and eat KFC."

Then he asked about Lin Meixia and the other two, "What are your parents' names? Do you know where they are?"

……

"Lin Weihua? The name sounds familiar... Old lady, do you still remember the name Lin Weihua?"

"Lin Weihua? Isn't that our son's classmate? They are a group of educated youth who went to the countryside."

The old man suddenly realized, "I was wondering why this name sounded so familiar."

"Lin Weihua's grades were pretty good. I heard he was admitted to Shanghai Normal University after returning."

The old woman dug out her son's belongings from his youth from the grocery cabinet.

Found an old photo album that was gathering dust.

The first page shows Liu Bing.

"Well, this is your dad when he was young. He looks so much like you."

"The first time I saw you, it was like seeing my eldest brother when he was a child."

"My father was quite handsome when he was young. No wonder my mother fell in love with him."

Liu Lang said sarcastically.

"Little brat, what does your mother look like~"

Liu Lang was confused? What was he talking about?

Liu Guangqing saw his grandson's confusion and said, "Don't talk about Shanghai fines. My grandson doesn't understand."

Explain to Liu Lang: "Your grandma is asking, what does your mother look like?"

The Liu family had never seen what their eldest son’s ex-wife looked like, and they didn’t even know the existence of their grandson Liu Lang.

During the years when Liu Bing was an educated youth, he lost contact with his family, and later he suddenly came back.

I didn’t tell them about the situation in Xishuangbanna.

The family asked, but Liu Bing was unwilling to speak.

I just often secretly stare at an old portrait at night.

"Come and take a look. This is a photo of your father when he was an educated youth in Yunnan."

"Is my father up there?"

Lin Meixia came over and asked.

"Your dad is in the middle of the last row, the one wearing glasses."

Seeing the photos of Lin Weihua when he was young, Lin Meixia couldn't help but burst into tears, flowing down her face like a stream.

From the photo, she seemed to feel that Lin Weihua was also looking at him.

"Where is my father now?"

"Old man, where is Wei Hua now?"

Liu Guangqing put on his reading glasses and flipped through something in an old manual.

"Let me take a look. Wei Hua left behind an address book. It seems to have the phone number of Lin Wei Hua's workplace."

"Hey, this tall and handsome man looks like Brother Kang." "Where is Brother Kang? Let him come over and have a look."

Li Kang was having a great time chatting with Ye Yuqing outside.

The intellectual beauty admired Li Kang's knowledge.

……

"Shakespeare's influence on the Western literary world is like that of our great poet Du Fu. And Du Fu lived more than a thousand years ago."

“It’s a pity that such a great poet is unknown to the world.

The world only knows about Shakespeare, Dante's Divine Comedy, and Homer's epic poems.

We have inherited an excellent culture for thousands of years, but few people know about it.

Even we ourselves are almost forgetting it and running to learn other people's culture.

Our best professors and students are studying other people’s stuff.”

“This is the tragedy of the times.”

It is difficult for Ye Yuqing to resonate with others, after all, she does not have the experience that transcends the times like Li Kang.

"What good is there in feudal dregs?"

“From your mouth, it feels like you’ve been to America.”

Li Kang didn't respond to her, but hummed a cheerful English song.

'If you miss the train I'm on'

'You will know that I am gone'
'You can hear the whistle blow a hundred miles'
……

Ye Yuqing gradually became absorbed in listening and began to sway to the rhythm.

Li Kang sings so well, his voice is so delicate and melodious that it is hard to associate it with his normal speaking voice.

Ye Yuqing envied people who spoke fluent English and could sing English songs.

An unharmonious voice broke the atmosphere that Li Kang had worked so hard to create.

"Yuqing, have you eaten?"

"Aunt Gangdong? She's about to leave. She still has a few classes tomorrow."

There are not many classes in the Foreign Languages ​​Department, so she has time to work part-time.

Standing next to Aunt Gangdong was a slightly plump boy with acne on his face.

Acting a little shy.

"Yunfeng, this is the senior from Huashi that I told you about. Go and say hello to her."

As for the owner of the home field, Li Kang.

She just said hello briefly at the beginning and then ignored him.

He introduced his son to Ye Yuqing very enthusiastically.

Jiang Yunfeng had never spoken to a pretty girl like Ye Yuqing since he was a child.

What's more, she was a senior student and she stuttered a little in her first sentence.

"Hello, senior sister. I also applied to the School of Foreign Languages. Please take care of me in the future."

After saying that, she actually looked shy, which made Li Kang feel disgusted.

Ye Yuqing nodded politely in response to her junior.

So what if he’s a direct junior?
University is a small society, and senior students have no responsibility or obligation to take care of younger students.

Everyone is working hard for their own future.

Ye Yuqing glanced at the watch on her wrist, an Enicar women's watch.

"It's getting late. I have to go back to school."

Li Kang quickly followed, "I'll take you there."

Aunt Gangdong pushed her dull son and urged him to catch up.

"Senior, I'll see you off too."

Walking in the modern alleys of Shanghai, there was a beautiful senior schoolmate next to me.

Li Kang felt a sense of belonging to the times, "It seems pretty good."

"What are your plans for the future?" Ye Yuqing asked, "I feel that you are much more mature than me. What are your plans for the future?"

"As for me, I plan to go back to Yunnan before the end of summer vacation after meeting that cheap dad."

Li Kang seemed to have guessed Ye Yuqing's reaction and added:

"Take the exam and come back to Shanghai in a year."

Ye Yuqing immediately asked, "Which university in Shanghai do you want to apply to?", secretly hoping that Li Kang would be able to apply to their school.

"Emm, I haven't decided yet. Do you have any university recommendations?"
