Chapter 197 Ask for Advice
Besides, the design sketches that Lan Xin gave her contained many novel designs, layouts, and decorations.
Li Jia's eyes lit up and a bunch of inspirations burst out in her mind, making her eager to go back to the dormitory and draw them all.
Besides, Lan Xin already had ideas about the design of the hotel and had drawn it out. She was at most a small worker, helping her find the missing parts and put it together.
Even so, Li Jia still felt embarrassed to collect fifty yuan from Lan Xin.
On the other hand, she should learn from Lan Xin and become an apprentice without charging a penny.
Seeing through Li Jia's embarrassment, she smiled and said, "I'll give you a hundred yuan. You have to hurry up and help me finish the painting. You need to go to the site for a field survey and make changes based on the environment."
Looking at Li Jia who kept nodding with excitement, Lan Xin felt guilty. Was she trying to lower the price?
Later in her life, she also bought a house and asked someone to design and renovate it. The price was a few percentage points higher than the house price. She only gave Li Jia a hundred yuan and asked her to draw so many things. Lan Xin felt so sorry in her heart.
However, Li Jia was so excited that he wanted to go back to the dormitory and start painting immediately.
Lan Xin also gave her a deposit of 20 yuan and would give her the rest after the painting was finished.
After making an agreement with Li Jia that she would go to Sanqing Mountain for a field trip the next weekend and giving her the specific address and how to take the bus, Li Jia quickly returned to the dormitory with the scroll in her arms.
Even for dinner, they only bought a few steamed buns. Lan Xin quickly added a few big meat buns for her. She couldn't let her work on an empty stomach.
After finishing their work, Lan Yi and Yang Zhengxin also managed to find the cafeteria. Yueyue saw them immediately.
"Aunt, uncle-in-law is here!"
After a group of people gathered, Lan Xin handed the child to Lan Yi's care and went to the canteen to queue up for food. She said she would talk about anything after she finished her meal.
Lan Xin pointed a little here and a little there, and finally filled several lunch boxes. She couldn't hold them all with her hands, so she had to ask Yang Zhengxin and others to come and get them.
"Oh, why did you buy so many vegetables?"
Lan Yi opened her mouth wide when she saw the dishes Lan Xin bought, including braised pork, steamed fish, and mushroom chicken.
"Hurry up and try it, everyone is hungry."
After hearing this, everyone kept silent and started eating.
Yueyue took a mouthful of the fragrant braised pork and squinted her eyes in enjoyment. "Mom, this braised pork is so delicious. I must go to this university in the future."
Lan Xin looked at Yueyue's little appearance and couldn't help but want to tease her, "So you won't be a police officer in the future?"
When Yueyue just came back from Shanghai, she took photos and played with a group of police officers in uniform. She decided to become a police officer after she came back, but now she probably has forgotten it.
Look, Yueyue widened her eyes and opened her mouth in surprise, not knowing what to do for a moment, but soon she came up with the answer.
"I can be a police officer first and then go to college!"
"Puchi. Hahaha." Lan Xin was really amused by this little clever boy. Lan Yi and Yang Zhengxin on the side also looked at Yueyue with smiles, which made her feel embarrassed and she hid behind her sister.
After laughing enough, Lan Xin nodded seriously, "This is a good idea, but it's the other way around. You have to go to college first and then become a policeman."
"Okay, I'll go to college first, and then become a policeman!"
Hearing her mother's praise, Yueyue suddenly stood up again, immediately stood up straight and began to set ambitious goals.
The students and teachers of Nanjing University who were still in the cafeteria immediately began to applaud after hearing Yueyue's ambitious words.
"What aspiration!"
Yueyue's face immediately turned red with shyness and she sat down.
"Then Yingying, what do you want to do?" Lan Xin did not forget Yingying who was sitting next to her. She looked up and tilted her head as if she couldn't think of anything. Finally, she shook her head and looked at Lan Xin with an apologetic look.
"Mom, I don't know yet."
"It's okay, it's okay. Our Yingying still has plenty of time. Maybe in the future, you will know what kind of person you want to be. As long as you don't do bad things or harm the country and others, mom will support you." Lan Xin comforted softly.
I gave each of the two children a piece of fragrant braised pork.
Lan Yi and Yang Zhengxin on the side looked at each other and were shocked. They didn't expect that Lan Xin taught and encouraged children in this way. Besides, Yingying and Yueyue were also very obedient and sensible. Who knows, Lan Xin might be able to teach a college student in the future.
Lan Yi showed relief on her face. Humph, when Yingying and Yueyue became college students, she would see how Zhou Sheng and the Zhou family would regret it.
After dinner, Lan Yi talked about their achievements this afternoon. "We didn't find any students raising chickens."
There are quite a few students in the Department of Agriculture, some of whom raise pigs and sheep, but I have never seen any students raising chickens.
In fact, seeing Lan Yi and Yang Zhengxin's worried faces, taking two chickens and a basket of eggs, but coming back with so many things, Lan Xin knew that they were not doing well. Now, after hearing what she said, she couldn't help but persuade them:
"Maybe it's because the students who raise chickens are not in school. Their homes are nearby, so they all went home."
Lan Xin's words comforted Lan Yi a lot. She nodded and said, "The students from the Animal Husbandry Department we met said that we could go find their professors. Professors know a lot and will definitely be more helpful to us than students."
"Then let's go visit the professor tomorrow. Have you asked where the professor will be?" This was a pleasant surprise, Lan Xin said quickly.
According to Lan Yi and the others' current situation, it would definitely be better to seek guidance from a professor rather than students. After all, chickens are living creatures and their lifeblood, and they cannot withstand any experiments. It would be best if they could get it done in one step.
Lan Yi nodded, "The classmate said that Professor Zhang lives in the school's teacher dormitory and is usually at home on weekends. He also told us which floor he lives on."
She hesitated a little, "It's not a good idea for us to go to their house like this."
To be honest, Lan Yi feels guilty towards her own son's teachers in elementary school, let alone those professors who teach at university and have great knowledge. This is probably a common problem among all poor students.
Lan Xin lowered her eyes and thought, and finally decided, "Let's buy some fruits and go over to their house to test the waters and see what's going on. You can't come here for nothing and go back empty-handed... No, should we carry these things back with us?"
The fare for this trip to the provincial capital is quite high, not to mention staying overnight. Lan Yi calculated it in her mind, gritted her teeth and nodded.
"Let's go. We must ask him for advice. We can't come here in vain!"
