Chapter 273 Are You That Jiang Yu From Seven Canteens?
Not long after, the 2015 graduation thesis defense meeting of the Department of Philosophy, School of Humanities, Jiangzhou University officially started.

The students sitting in the classroom next to the defense site also became nervous. It felt like going to the unit for an interview for the first time.

The difference is that if you fail the interview, you will not get a job, but if you fail the defense, you will not get a diploma.

Relatively speaking, the latter is much more serious.

"Sitting here is boring."

Hu Zhihai turned his head to look at Jiang Yu, and muttered in a low voice,
"If I had known that I would have to wait until the afternoon to defend, I should have brought this book to read. No matter how bad it was, I would have taken a glossary and memorized it."

"Tsk tsk, fat man, you are really impressive."

After Jiang Yu heard what he said, he couldn't help turning his head to look at him seriously, and said with a surprised face,

"I thought you were hiding in the study room of the library every day, sleeping with the air conditioner on. I didn't expect you to go to review."

"Nonsense, I told you a long time ago that I must pass the exam next year. Do you think I'm joking?"

Hu Zhihai glanced at Jiang Yu, and said arrogantly,

"Let me tell you, when I get serious, I'm even afraid of myself!"

As he spoke, he suddenly moved closer to Jiang Yu and asked in a low voice,

"Oh, by the way, I didn't expect that you actually want to invite the whole class to dinner. With so many people, are you busy?"

"It's okay, there are only about thirty of us, and it's enough to open three boxes."

Jiang Yu waved his hand and said with an indifferent expression,

"Anyway, it's a classmate. After this meal, we will go our separate ways. I hope everyone can make a name for themselves."

The two chatted quietly for a while, and after an unknown amount of time, they suddenly heard the teacher outside the door assisting in the defense shout:
"Number 6! Number 6 is ready!"

Hearing "No. 6" outside, Jiang Yu and Hu Zhihai stopped talking immediately.

"I'm going out first."

Jiang Yu said something in a low voice, then raised his head and glanced at the door, then took a deep breath, stood up from his seat, and walked out quickly.

In the corridor, several college teachers stood aside and chatted quietly. When they saw Jiang Yu coming out, their eyes lit up.

A middle-aged teacher who once taught Jiang Yu and his class "History of Western Philosophy" walked over slowly, and said with a smile:

"Jiang Yu, you are graduating today, do you have any thoughts?"

Jiang Yu is now the "treasure" of the school, and the pride of the School of Humanities. The attitude of the teachers in the school towards him is naturally different from that of other students.

"Hello Mr. Liu!"

Jiang Yu said hello to the teacher first, then said with a smile,

"I haven't left the school after graduation. How do I feel about it? It's a pity that I won't be able to attend Teacher Liu's class in the future."

"Hahaha! You kid, why didn't you find out that you can talk like this before?"

Teacher Liu just laughed a few times, and suddenly remembered that the defense was still going on in the conference room next door, so he quickly lowered his voice, smiled, and said,

"It's not easy if you want to listen to my lectures, don't you have to take postgraduate courses in the second half of the year?
It just so happened that there was a class that I took.

Let me remind you first, if you want to skip class, you have to bribe me, otherwise, you just wait to fail. "

Jiang Yu said, "No problem. It just so happens that I'm going to invite the whole class to dinner tonight. Why don't Teacher Liu come together?"

"Forget it, I won't go to join in the fun when your classmates are reunited, so as not to disappoint your interest."

Teacher Liu was a little moved at first, but after thinking about it, he waved his hand and said with a smile,

"However, in a few days, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are coming, and I have to ask you to reserve a box for me.

Our school is too remote, and the food around you is not bad, so I have to treat them to a good meal. "

"Okay, when Teacher Liu needs a box, call me in advance."

Jiang Yu nodded and said with a smile, "I promise to satisfy the two old people."

Teacher Liu nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Okay, then thank you first, Teacher."

After the two chatted for a few words, the door of the graduation defense conference room opened, and a female classmate walked out with her face blushing and her head bowed. She didn't know whether she was excited or nervous.

As soon as she came out of the door, she saw Jiang Yu standing outside.

The female classmate was stunned for a moment, then quickly squeezed out a smile, nodded to Jiang Yu, and walked aside with her head down without saying a word.

"go in."

Teacher Liu raised his hand and patted Jiang Yu's shoulder lightly, encouraging him,
"come on!"

"Well, thank you Teacher Liu!"

Jiang Yu looked at the open door, took a deep breath, then reached out and gently pushed the door open, and walked in.

In the conference room, on one side of the long conference table, there were five respondent teachers sitting, and only the front seat on the right had cups and books on it.

On the wall behind the defense teachers, there was a red banner with the words "2015 Graduation Thesis Defense Meeting of the Department of Philosophy, School of Humanities".

On the front wall of the conference room, the projection screen has been lowered, and a young female teacher is operating something on a laptop beside her.

After a while, the screen on the curtain flashed, showing the topic of Jiang Yu's graduation thesis.

Afterwards, the young female teacher walked down, returned to the seat on the right side of the conference table and sat down again.

Jiang Yu walked a few steps to the front of the conference room, bowed slightly to the defense teachers, smiled again, and then said:
"Good morning, teachers! My name is Jiang Yu. I am a student in the Department of Philosophy, Class of 2015. The title of my thesis is..."

Just finished the opening introduction, when Jiang Yu was about to continue discussing his graduation thesis, a teacher who looked very strange suddenly interrupted him:

"Are you Jiang Yu? The Jiang Yu from Jiang Daqi canteen?"

After saying this, he raised his head and looked at Jiang Yu with great interest.

This teacher is about fifty years old, with short gray hair, under two thick eyebrows, a pair of small eyes are piercing, and looks quite energetic.

Jiang Yu didn't seem to have seen him before, and it was estimated that he was a professor from another school invited by the college to be the chief respondent.

After listening to his question, Jiang Yu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded quickly, and replied:
"Yes, teacher, I am Jiang Yu."

"Oh, really young."

The teacher nodded, and then realized that it was inappropriate to say this on this occasion. He smiled apologetically at the teachers around him, then raised his head and said to Jiang Yu with a smile,

"Okay, Xiao Jiang, you can continue."

Although Jiang Yu was a little baffled, he was not affected by the sudden accident, and continued to introduce his thesis according to the previous rhythm.

To be honest, although Jiang Yu's graduation thesis is not very innovative, the arguments and relevant materials are solid.

After all, he wrote it word by word, unlike some students nowadays, who copy and paste a few times, and then make a little change, and a paper comes out.

Therefore, when Jiang Yu briefly described his graduation thesis, he hardly looked at the PPT. It only took two or three minutes to briefly introduce the focus of the thesis in an orderly manner.

In the end, Jiang Yu said: "Because of my limited ability, there are still many problems in the discussion process. I would like to ask the responding teacher to provide valuable opinions. The presentation is over, thank you!"

Next, it is the questioning session of the responding teacher.

This part is the focus of the graduation thesis defense meeting. Whether you can graduate smoothly depends on whether you can withstand the soul torture of the responding teacher.

When it came to the questioning session, the other defense teachers were all from the college, and they all knew that Jiang Yu had already secured a graduate degree and was going to study for a master's degree in the second half of the year, so they naturally wouldn't make things difficult for him, so they just asked a few small questions and it was over. .

But the principal responding teacher didn't know what was going on, and not only asked several questions, but all of them were very tricky, which made the teachers of the college sitting on the side sweat for Jiang Yu.

Fortunately, Jiang Yu answered all of them in the end. Although the answers were not necessarily correct, at least he didn't answer the teacher's questions and was speechless.

As long as you don't get caught by the responding teacher's question, you will win!

"Xiao Jiang, it can be seen that you have put a lot of thought into this graduation thesis, which is very good. This shows that you have acquired knowledge in the past four years, and you are not wasting your time."

After Jiang Yu finished answering the last question, Teacher Nongmei nodded towards Jiang Yu, and said approvingly,

"You can start your own business while you are studying, and make a school cafeteria impressive. It is indeed very capable. I hope you can continue to work hard in the future, apply what you have learned, and make greater achievements."

After a pause, he smiled at Jiang Yu again, waved his hand and said,

"Okay, your defense is over, let's go back and have a rest."

"Thank you teachers!"

Hearing that the defense was over, Jiang Yu couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, bowed slightly to the defense teachers in the audience, and walked out of the graduation thesis defense conference room quickly.

As soon as he left the meeting room, Jiang Yu looked up and saw Wang Xueyi. He was taken aback, but before he could say hello, Wang Xueyi didn't even look at him, opened the door expressionlessly, and walked into the meeting room.

Only then did Jiang Yu walk over. This Wang Xueyi should have drawn the "No. 7" lottery, so he was ranked behind him.

However, Jiang Yu was still a little puzzled. He didn't seem to have offended him before. When he moved out of the dormitory to rent a house, he was busy for most of the day helping him carry his luggage and buy daily necessities.

At that time, Wang Xueyi patted himself on the shoulder and said with a smile, when he was admitted to the graduate school of Beijing University, please treat yourself to a good meal.

After that, the two never met again, until today, this is the first time they have met in the past year.

Why did you look at him just now, as if you owed him 800 million?

Jiang Yu shook his head, and didn't bother to think about these things. Anyway, the two of them won't have any interaction after today. What does it have to do with Wang Xueyigao being unhappy?
Anyway, just be happy with yourself.

After the dissertation defense was over, Jiang Yu had nothing to do, and he didn't stay in the corridor too long, so he went straight downstairs.

When he got downstairs, he discovered that several students who had just finished their defense were standing at the entrance of the college and chatting, and there was a burst of happy laughter from time to time.

Seeing Jiang Yu approaching, one of the girls' eyes lit up, and she greeted her with a smile and said:
"Jiang Yu, you said you invited us to dinner at night, is it true?"

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Of course it's true, you should remember to come when the time comes."

"That's for sure, how many people want to eat Jiang Yu's food and you can't eat it. We are lucky this time."

Another girl also came over. She blinked at Jiang Yu and asked curiously,

"Jiang Yu, we're classmates, can you tell me how you learned your cooking skills? You're even better than those chefs who have been cooking for decades!"

"Don't say that, those chefs are much better than me."

When Jiang Yu heard this, he waved his hands again and again, and said with a smile,

"The main reason is that the food tastes in several cafeterias in the school are not very good, so it seems that the food I cook is better.

After all, it's nothing more than "pulling out the general from the dwarf". "

"Tsk tsk, Jiang Yu, you can talk a lot now than before."

After the first girl heard Jiang Yu's words, she couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing. She seemed to sigh, and continued,

"If you were so eloquent when you were in class together, why would anyone else have anything to do?"

Before Jiang Yu could react, she quickly changed the subject again.
"By the way, I heard people say that you will enter our college for graduate study in the second half of the year?"

"Hehe, it was pure accident."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yu was really a little embarrassed, because according to his usual grades, he was not qualified for the postgraduate insurance, but who made his food so delicious and managed the Seven Canteens so well? what?
"There is no accident, this is the result of your own hard work."

The girl shook her head and said with a look of emotion on her face,

"Otherwise, why wouldn't this accident happen to us?"

After chatting with a few classmates downstairs, Jiang Yu found a random reason, got rid of their curious "questioning", and rushed straight towards the Seventh Canteen.

It was still early, and there were only students in twos and threes in the hall of the No. [-] cafeteria. They were sitting on the seats in the dining area, blowing on the air conditioner, while reading books, playing with mobile phones, and chatting.

Jiang Yu is no stranger to this kind of scene. When the weather was hot last year, some students had already used the canteen as a "study room".

Should I say it or not, their brains are really good.

Reading in the cafeteria hall, with the air conditioner blowing and no one disturbing, is very spacious, which is much more comfortable than reviewing homework in the crowded library study room.

The most important thing is that when the cafeteria is about to open, they can still grab a favorable position and queue up to the front.

Jiang Yu walked into the gate of the cafeteria, only glanced at the dining area, and stopped paying attention to them. There are not many people reading at the moment. In a few days, it will probably be like a study room. There were no seats left.

As long as these students who came to read books did not affect the work of the cafeteria, Jiang Yu didn't bother to take care of them.

In the kitchen on the first floor, Lu Shuwu, Qian Liwei and the others had already started cooking. The clinking of pots, pans and pans, the "buzzing" of the blower, and various other sounds from the kitchen were mixed in. Together, it is like playing a kitchen symphony.

Naturally, Jiang Yu was not idle either. He came to the side dish room, took out a large bag of dried fern root vermicelli from the food cabinet beside him, and soaked it in warm water.

Immediately afterwards, he washed the tender cucumbers, shallots, garlic and chili peppers, then shredded the cucumbers, cut the shallots into sections, diced the garlic, and cut the chili peppers into small pieces.

He had just finished cutting these side dishes when Ma Guoqiang, who was cutting meat beside him, asked:
"Boss, how was your graduation thesis defense? It must have gone well, right?"

"It's okay. I don't know the details. It depends on how the defense team scores."

Jiang Yu responded casually, then packed all the cut side dishes, picked up the fern root powder that had been soaked for a while and packed them up, and went out of the side dish room.

Taking all the ingredients in his hand to the stove, Jiang Yu poured an appropriate amount of water into the pot and boiled it, then put the fern root powder into the boiling water and boiled it for a few minutes, then turned off the heat, covered the pot, Let the fern root powder simmer in the pot for a while.

Lu Shuwu had just cooked a dish at the moment, and while he was busy getting out of the pot and putting it on the plate, he glanced at Jiang Yu quickly, and said "huh" in his mouth:
"Boss, when did you come back? By the way, what are you cooking?"

"Not long after I got back."

Jiang Yu glanced at him and said calmly,

"It's too hot, so make a hot and sour fern root powder, I think those students who don't have much appetite will like it."

When Lu Shuwu heard it, the halazi was about to flow out, so he said quickly:

"Boss, don't say that, don't say that students with no appetite will like it, students with appetite will like it more, and, I like it too!"

Jiang Yu curled his lips: "It's not difficult to make hot and sour fern root powder. If you want to eat it, don't you know how to make it yourself?"

Lu Shuwu smiled "hehe": "Of course I can do it, but what I make must not be as delicious as yours!"

Jiang Yu didn't bother to pay attention to him, lifted the lid of the pot, picked up the fern root powder with chopsticks, and found that the fern root powder could be easily broken without a hard core in the middle, so he fished them all out, put them aside and prepared them earlier Soak in good cold boiled water.

In order to make the fern root powder taste more refreshing, Jiang Yu even put several ice cubes in the cold boiled water.

Afterwards, Jiang Yu began to prepare the sauce again.

He first fetched a large soup bowl, put minced garlic, red pepper segments, vinegar, chili oil, and appropriate amount of water into the bowl one by one, and added a few tablespoons of the secret sauce prepared in advance, and stirred evenly. Just tune it.

Afterwards, Jiang Yu picked up the fern root powder soaked in ice water, spread them on two large trays, poured the seasoning sauce evenly, and spread a layer of finely chopped fern root powder on top of the fern root powder. Cucumber shreds, sprinkle with chives and coriander leaves.

At this point, the hot and sour fern root powder is ready.

"Wow! It looks so appetizing!"

Lu Shuwu looked at the fern root powder soaked in red oil sauce one by one, showing a shiny dark brown color, the cucumber shreds covered on it were uniform, as thin as hair, and emerald green coriander leaves dotted among them, couldn't help it My saliva is about to flow out.

Without further ado, he took the bowls and chopsticks, picked up a bowl of fern root powder from the corner of the tray, and squatted in the corner of the kitchen to eat "sloppily".

Before Jiang Yu had time to deliver the fern root powder to the sales room, Lu Shuwu had already finished a bowl.

"Boss, this hot and sour fern root powder is really delicious!"

Lu Shuwu licked his lips, and looked at the fern root powder in the tray with an unfinished look, as if he wanted to eat up the whole tray.

However, he caught a glimpse of Jiang Yu standing aside, and was somewhat embarrassed, so he scratched his head, leaned over and said with a smile,

"This fern root powder is smooth, hot and sour, and appetizing. Have you soaked it in ice water in advance?

It tastes a bit cold, and it's so refreshing to have a bowl of this in summer! "

Jiang Yu turned his head and glanced at him, and said with a smile: "You talk about it, after talking so much, I only hear three words."

Lu Shuwu was taken aback: "Which three words?"

"you want to eat."

Jiang Yu reached out and patted Lu Shuwu who hadn't reacted yet, and said to him,

"Okay, I'll keep this tray for a while and our cafeteria staff will finish their lunch.

Don't steal it anymore, when you eat it, other people will be gone before they taste it. "

As he spoke, Jiang Yu picked up another tray of fern root powder and walked straight to the sales room.

It wasn't until Jiang Yu walked away that Lu Shuwu came back to his senses. He couldn't help curling his lips and muttering in a low voice:
"This fern root powder is really delicious. I said so much because I praised this cold dish. Although I really want to eat it, my praise is very sincere.

Well, yes, I've always been sincere! "

In a blink of an eye, the cafeteria was open for business. The students who rushed over under the sun, first took a glass of free iced sour plum soup, and when they were about to order, they suddenly found that there was cold fern root powder on the side!
Immediately, everyone was overjoyed. They didn't even want rice, so they directly ordered a large portion of hot and sour fern root powder, and ran to the side of the dining table to eat happily.

The happiest ones are those girls who are getting fatter and fatter by the food in the Seventh Canteen. They want to go on a diet to lose weight, but they can’t help but be greedy. The food in the Seventh Canteen is really delicious, let alone dieting. If you take a bite less, you will feel uncomfortable all over.

Now seeing hot and sour fern root powder in the cafeteria, I was overjoyed. This fern root powder is a fat-reducing food, and the calories are not high, but it is the best food for weight loss lovers.

What's more, Brother Jiang personally made this hot and sour fern root powder, which is delicious and fat-reducing, which girl would not love it?
As a result, after the tray of fern root powder was served, it didn't even last for half an hour, and it was all sold out.

Even the soup was poured into the rice by a student. After stirring it with chopsticks, he took a big mouthful of rice into his mouth.

The taste was so good that his eyes narrowed into a line!
