Xin Zhai

A week later, Ye Li really got a call from Tong Yan.

When he arrived at Tong Yan's office at the appointed time, there was no one there.Ye Li stood waiting at the door, when he suddenly heard Tong Yan's voice faintly.He walked a few steps to the side, and saw Tong Yan standing with his back to the door in a room diagonally opposite, talking to a girl sitting in front of the computer.

"I don't have time, you check them one by one by yourself, you also want to ask me?"

"I've checked it dozens of times, and it's just an error. Can you help me check it?"

When Tong Yan heard this, he put his hands on his hips, raised his voice and said, "If you have any questions, please ask me. Don't come to me for things like bug checking."

After Tong Yan finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the door.The girl rolled her eyes at his back.Ye Li glanced at her and met Tong Yan's gaze.

"Come on, let's talk about it." Seeing him, Tong Yan turned around and walked out.Ye Li followed him into the office.

The two entered the house.Tong Yan said "sit", walked to the water dispenser with a water cup, and said while receiving water: "I went to ask a few places last week, and it is true that there is no part-time job suitable for you in a short period of time. Personally, but I want girls, so I recommended Liu Na."

"It's okay, I'll just go outside and look for it."

Tong Yan walked to the desk, collected the messy documents on it, held them in his hand and read them one by one, while reading, he said: "I applied for a project. I just applied for it the day before yesterday. I tested the performance of the latest chip on the market. It should be Can approve."

As he spoke, he tore up potentially useless documents and threw them into the trash can.

"It's mainly a test project, and some money can be approved." Tong Yan turned around and leaned halfway on the table, "If you come to help, I can send you some money every month."

Ye Li couldn't believe it, he was a freshman who didn't know anything, so he couldn't be called "helping" at all.This is not too different from Tong Xingxiang giving him money, not to mention a great opportunity to learn.He was so excited that he wondered if he had misunderstood Tong Yan's meaning. At this time, he heard Tong Yan ask: "Are you willing?"

Ye Li immediately replied: "Yes."

"Okay. Let me tell you first. First, there is not much money. Second, you have to work. You don't know too much now, so you have to learn by yourself."

"it is good."

"Well, I'll look for you when the time comes." Tong Yan nodded, stood up straight, and put his hands in his trouser pockets, "It's okay, let's go first."

Ye Li went out and walked on campus, his heart was still pounding with excitement, only then did he realize that he didn't even say "thank you" to Tong Yan.

It was just after five o'clock in the afternoon, and the second big class in the afternoon had just ended, and the students left the teaching building in groups.Cheers came one after another from the basketball court in the Eastern District.Ye Li turned his head and saw a banner hanging beside the court: University A's [-]th Winter Basketball Tournament.

At this moment, a somewhat familiar voice came from the horns on the telephone poles along the road.

"Hi everyone. Today is Tuesday, December 12. The semi-finals of the Fifth Basketball Tournament of University A is being held in the East Parade. The two sides of the competition are the Department of Electronics and the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Welcome everyone to come and cheer for the players."

Ye Li smiled, it was Liu Na.

As soon as the voice fell, a burst of rhythmic music sounded.

"

I run against the crowd on the street

Alley from both sides of the road

On the wall of an abandoned factory

graffiti childhood simple wish

"

Ye Li walked towards the dormitory stepping on the rhythm, and suddenly heard someone calling him from behind: "Ye Li!"

Ye Li turned his head and saw Shi Jingchen riding a bicycle, flying past him.Zhou Shi was sitting on the back seat of the bicycle, shaking his legs, and beckoning to him with a smile.

Ye Li also waved his hand, and stared at the basketball court next to him.He is a little envious, this is what college life should be, but unfortunately he can't play.

Maybe he should join a club he is interested in, Ye Li thought, seeing two groups of people surrounded by the playground.A sign was hung on one, which said "Mountain Association recruits newcomers", and another place pulled a white flag, which read "A Marathon Association recruits newcomers".

He approached the group of people from the Mountain Association and heard that they were introducing the association's activities to a girl who seemed to be a freshman, including camping and mountaineering, and they would go to the suburban mountains for activities on weekends.Because Ye Li still had a job to do, he didn't have a lot of time to go out, so he went to the Marathon Association next door.

Ye Li looked inside, and the girl who spoke in the middle was very familiar, she seemed to be the girl who talked to Tong Yan in the department hall just now.

He walked over and chatted with her for a while.The girl's name is Lin Li, she is a senior, and she will be working under Tong Yan this semester as a final project.So Ye Li called her Senior Sister.Lin Li enthusiastically introduced the Marathon Association to her.The main activity of the association is long-distance running, and there are two teams at [-] pm and [-] pm.Everyone can arrange according to their own time.Every year, the Horse Association will participate in the full marathon and half marathon events in Y City and several nearby cities.In the past two years, the number of horse associations in University A has grown rapidly, and a long team of people can be seen running in the school every day.

Ye Li didn't know much about technical sports when he was in middle school, and if he was good at it, he was good at long-distance running.No one reported the [-] for the sports meeting, so he was allowed to participate every time.He feels that the biggest advantage of long-distance running is that it is cheap, and you can run with a pair of shoes, unlike other sports that require a lot of equipment.

So he filled out a registration form and left his contact information.Lin Li told him that he could run with the school today.He chose a night run at [-] o'clock in the evening, and the location was at the playground in the North District.

Walking from the playground to the cafeteria, Ye Li received a call from his mother.He told her that he was working as a tutor before, but he didn't mention that he went to the supermarket to work the night shift.

Mother asked him if it was cold there, if he was tired from studying, and then complained about his aunt taking advantage of her, either by taking the coal she bought, or sharing the electricity bill with her unfairly and other trivial matters.Ye Li has a younger uncle who lives in the same yard with his family.My aunt likes to take advantage of others.Mother usually likes to talk to him about this.He would comfort her a few words at first, and then responded with a humming haha.Ye Li felt that those were trivial matters, and he didn't want to ruin the relationship for this little money.But no matter how much he tried to persuade, my mother still did the same.He thought that maybe his mother had nothing to say, so he just treated him as a trash can and dumped all bad moods to him.

"If it's easy for you to find a tutor, you can do more. Xiao Qi lives on campus now, so he has to pay a lot of accommodation fees." After chanting, the mother talked about tuition fees again.

"Understood." Ye Li said, "Check to see if there are any children at home who need a teacher to help with their homework during the winter vacation. If there are, then I will do it, and I will go back and do it."

Ye Li's family lives in a small town, and they all know each other well.His grades are good, and there should be many children looking for him when he goes back.

He thought of this, and heard his mother say: "Xiao Qi always said that he wanted to buy a mobile phone, but I didn't agree."

"I'll buy him one, you don't have to worry about it."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Li went back to the dormitory.Shi Jingchen watched a movie alone in the room.He thought that Shi Jingchen was very familiar with these electronic products, why not ask him to buy one online and give him money.I didn't think so when I was studying at home before, but now that Yeli came here, I found that most people are buying things online.Even the remote places in my hometown can be delivered by express delivery.It's just that I don't usually use bank cards very much, just like an old antique.

"Okay, what's the budget?" Shi Jingchen asked.

"600."

"Isn't that only old phones?" Shi Jingchen said while using his mobile phone to help him.

"Look at this one. It's 899. If you add another 300 to the budget, the CPU, camera, and storage capacity can all be upgraded by one level."

Ye Li was hesitant. He himself used a mobile phone that he bought for 500 yuan two years ago, and he thought it was quite good.Originally, I wanted to buy Ye Qi a mobile phone to make calls more conveniently.

"Oh, you listen to me, just buy this, it's absolutely worth it."

"What?" Pu Liang heard Shi Jingchen's excited voice before entering the door.

"Mobile phone, the current mobile phone really changes every day."

"So you're changing again?"

"Not yet, have you written the homework for the big stuff?"

"No, I just went to a film association event with Xiaoqian, and it was quite cool to show a movie in the new auditorium."

"Xiaoqian, look at your homework."

Ye Li thought about it, it's better to buy a better one, it will last for three years, and he will buy a new one when he goes to college.So he said to Shi Jingchen: "Then buy this for me."

"Okay, then I'll place an order, give me the address."

Ye Li wrote him the address, looked at the only 700 yuan in the drawer, and asked, "Should I give you 700 yuan first? I'll give you the remaining 200 yuan on Sunday."

Shi Jingchen fiddled with the phone with his head down, and said "OK".

At nine o'clock in the evening, Ye Li arrived at the playground in the North District on time.The North Playground is in a relatively quiet corner of the school.The freshman Ye Li had their physical education class in the East District, so he seldom came here.After entering the fence gate outside, he was startled.The Beijing Exercise at nine o'clock is very lively.The big class just ended at nine o'clock in the evening, and this is the time when the "night life" of college students is the most abundant.

Many people come here to run first on the way back to the dormitory, and some people go for a couple of laps before going to the water room with a thermos to fetch water.There are couples jogging around the playground, groups of threes and fours running to the side for stretching, and one person running with earphones.In contrast, the Horse Association's team is very spectacular, there are about a dozen people.At this time, they were doing warm-up before the run, and it was Lin Li who led the team.

Ye Li greeted her and followed her to do exercises at the end.After ten minutes, the team started running around the playground.Seeing him coming for the first time, Lin Li kept running side by side with him, occasionally saying a few words.After three laps, Ye Li began to sweat.After running to the fourth lap, it was a bit difficult to follow.He said to Lin Li, "Senior sister, you go first, and I will follow behind."

Ye Li gradually fell to the end of the team, but he still tried his best to follow.The heart and lungs are a little uncomfortable, but it is still within the tolerable range.

The cold air in the sky enters the nasal cavity, and when it is exhaled, it becomes warm and humid.Bring out a small cloud of white mist, and slowly dissipate in the air under the illumination of the lights above the side of the playground.
