It turned out that at noon today, a table of old customers came to the store, they were poker friends from the nearby chess and card room. As usual, the four of them ordered two plates of grilled fish and a bottle of white wine, and ate with satisfaction.
Xu Yin asked Dad Xu to give them lemon chicken feet and duck feet.
The original intention was to promote the new dishes in the store. Unexpectedly, I became addicted to the food. The small portion I tried was not enough, so I ordered two more portions. Before leaving, each person packed up a portion and said they would take it back to their wives and children to try.
Even Xu’s father could not have imagined that the braised snacks made by his daughter who helped him clear out the freezer would sell so well.
If not for the limited quantity, the sales volume in a single day would have surpassed that of grilled fish and stir-fried vegetables.
Seeing Xu's father happily sharing his flowing water with her, Xu Yin's heart moved:
"Dad, when you go shopping tomorrow, buy a few more packs of chicken feet and duck feet. Taking advantage of the good business these two days, won't the sales volume after the new year be basically there? When the weather gets hot, stir-fried vegetables won't be sold anymore. It’s also good to sell these braised dishes and cold dishes.”
Father Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this: This is a good idea!
In previous years, every summer, the cooking business would be much slower.
Fortunately, he learned how to fry crayfish, and with crayfish, grilled fish and beer, he opened a late-night snack stall in midsummer.
Otherwise, the daily turnover and the salary to pay Fat Sister-in-law and Xiao Wu may not be enough.
Father Xu agreed immediately.
The next day, he went to wholesale several large packages of chicken feet and duck feet. When he came back, the owner of the wholesale shop gave him a large package of duck intestines as usual.
The main ingredients of the three cold dishes were all ready, and Xu Yin started cooking with ease.
Father Xu was heartbroken when he saw her deboning chicken and duck feet or threading bamboo sticks while memorizing English words and reading landscape design books:
"Yinyin, why don't you teach Dad and Dad will do it? You can just read on your own."
"Dad, you have to learn, otherwise I will start school next semester and no one will do it. But you are too busy now, so leave it to me during the winter vacation. During the New Year, I will teach you at home. This is the marinated bun. The recipe for the sauce and sauce is a little complicated, but the rest is very easy, you can figure it out at a glance."
"Would that delay your reading?"
"No." Xu Yin said with a smile, "I just took this book because I felt it was a bit boring to just do this. It wasn't because I was in a hurry."
"That's good." Father Xu went to work in the kitchen with confidence.
Xu Yin continued to lower her head and memorize the words to string duck intestines.
In the past few days, she has picked up the vocabulary of Level 6 by memorizing it. When she has time, she plays level-breaking games in scene simulations. She has almost all the vocabulary, sentence patterns, and grammar she has mastered before. She will try to pass Level 6 in one go next semester. class.
"Xu Yin, the results are out, have you checked? How did you do in the exam?"
At this time, Qian Mingyue called, his tone full of excitement and excitement.
"I haven't checked yet." Xu Yin said.
If Qian Mingyue didn't call, she would forget about it. Mainly because she did well in the exam and was confident of getting full grades, but she didn't care much about her ranking.
"Check it quickly! I think you must have done very well in the exam. I, Lulu and Wenyi have been reviewing with you for a month, and their rankings have improved a lot compared to last semester. My mother is so happy, not only did someone come here just now When I foster a pet, everyone tells me that I am self-conscious about my studies, that I managed to get into the top five in college despite no one caring about me, and that they want to celebrate me, hehe..."
While Qian Mingyue was chirping to express her joy, Xu Yin logged into the campus network and entered her student ID and password.
The password has been changed to her usual one through her mobile phone number. After successfully logging in, she clicked on the final grades of this semester. As expected, she saw——
There are thirteen courses this semester, whether they are questionnaires, essays or closed-book exams, all of them have full grades, and they all end with perfect scores or close to full scores!
Class rank: 1
Ranking of the whole series: 1
Not only did he achieve full results, he also won two first places.
Xu Yin expressed that she was very satisfied.
However, this is only the first step in the learning plan.
Starting next semester, applying for a second minor major is the stage goal of striving to achieve full grades.
"What? You want to take credits in landscape design?"
Qian Mingyue was so surprised that her jaw almost dropped to the ground: "The design major in our school requires students to have art skills. At least they must have learned sketching, otherwise it may not be so easy to pass."
Art skills? Sketching basics?
She has!
"Can I apply if I have art skills?"
"That's what I say, but if you haven't learned sketching before and don't have enough art literacy, it will be difficult to improve in a short time, right?"
Hearing what Qian Mingyue said, Xu Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
This request is nothing to her.
"Xu Yin, why do you suddenly want to major in a second major? And you also chose landscape design, which has too many requirements and heavy homework tasks? You don't know, I have a high school classmate who majored in this major. I complained, saying that professional teachers leave more homework than high school students. They often have to stay up late to catch up on homework, and they are almost catching up with medical students. Why are you so stubborn? If you want to study a second major, you can definitely choose something easier... Ah! I understand, are you... well, what, do you also like He Shi? If you want to get closer to the terrace, you have to get the moon first? "
Xu Yin: "..."
Sisters, you think too much!
anyway--
"Is He Shi from our school?"
"Ah! You don't know? It's impossible! When the freshman year just started, we had a special night meeting to discuss him."
Xu Yin: "..."
that's not me.
"...He majored in landscape architecture. I heard that many girls from other departments want to apply to change majors or take a second major in order to be closer to him, but how many of them can meet the requirements? Besides, , he doesn’t show up very often and only shows up during exam weeks. Even if he’s in the same college or not in the same class, even if he transfers there, he won’t be able to see anyone, so it’s better to watch his business online like us.”
As Qian Mingyue was talking, something suddenly occurred to her, and her voice was filled with disbelief: "Xu Yin, you just said you wanted to minor in a second major. Did you get full grade points for your grades this semester?"
University A has two rigid rules for minoring in the second major - 1. No failing courses; 2. The students must have full grades in any semester.
These two conditions are indispensable.
Xu Yin's grades in her freshman year were similar to hers. Although she didn't fail the class, she was far from a full grade.
So, she got full grades this semester?
Xu Yin: "Yeah."
"!!!"
A moment later, Qian Mingyue's disbelieving scream came from the other end of the phone: "Ah ah ah! Xu Yin, you are so awesome! You actually got full grades in every course? There are some very difficult professional courses this semester. I Thank God if you passed, you actually got a score of 90 or above? Is it true or not? Ahhh! I can’t be shocked alone, I have to tell Lulu and the others to go!"
Before Xu Yin could say anything, Qian Mingyue hung up the phone and went to find someone else to share this amazing news.
Xu Yin: "..."
He shook his head with a smile and continued to skewer her duck intestines.
After a while, the counselor made a voice call and asked her straight to the point: "Do you want to minor in a second major?"
Xu Yin: "..."
How many people did Qian Mingyue, a big talker, tell in just a few minutes?
