Chapter 219: The Rules
Chapter 219
Xiao Qi's attitude was very positive, and she was not affected by the Chairman's words at all, and did not feel wronged or anything.
On the contrary, she felt that the Chairman was really good, she was not very smart, but she could still feel other people's kindness.
She conscientiously bathed the two horses that needed a bath today, and then rode a few laps on the horse by herself.
She did not choose a horse first, but decided to get to know them all.
There were a total of 8 horses in the horse farm, 6 adults and 1 foal, Little Coral, and 1 small pony with very soft hair like a little lion, it was really short, it felt as tall as Xiao Bao'er, probably bought by the Chairman for Xiao Bao'er to play with.
The horses were expensive, several hundred thousand, tens of thousands, and the cheapest was tens of thousands.
After taking care of the horses, she was also satisfied riding, both physically and mentally relaxed, then went to take a bath and eat.
After finishing, unexpectedly the Chairman still gave her 500 yuan.
Xiao Qi thought about it and still took the money.
The Chairman probably didn't want to fuss over such a small amount, and she didn't either.
The weekend passed very quickly.
Before she knew it, it was Monday again.
Xiao Qi got up at 5:30 in the morning, washed up briefly, then practiced calligraphy.
Compared to weekends, Xiao Qi still preferred the regular Monday to Friday, feeling that time was arranged better.
On weekends there were always a lot of things that could not be learned regularly.
Every day without practicing calligraphy on time, Xiao Qi felt uneasy. She liked a regular life.
Meng City brightened early.
In the dim light, breathing the air outside the window was very comfortable.
Practicing calligraphy at this time also felt particularly wonderful. Xiao Qi felt that when she wrote the Heart Sutra at the Calligraphy and Painting Society last time, she seemed to have gained another kind of insight, the feeling of one go, which was different from usual, and felt she had improved again.
Practicing calligraphy now also seemed to have an extra smooth and effortless feeling.
After practicing brush calligraphy for half an hour, Xiao Qi went downstairs to jog.
Jogging for an hour, while jogging she also learned English and Japanese, feeling very effective.
Xiao Qi could clearly feel her English level improve, especially spoken language. Because she spent almost the whole weekend with Jin Zaiyan, speaking English for two days, for language the best way to learn is to use it more, speak more, just like teaching a child to speak, speak more, babble more, and it will naturally come, very naturally fluent, completely different from the hard study and recitation in class.
This was one of Enhua's advantages, Xiao Qi felt learning languages was really convenient.
Japanese was still a bit difficult, after all Teacher Yamamoto looked too serious, although after every class, Mr. Yamamoto also seemed like a game NPC, very easy to satisfy, as long as students studied hard, he was actually happy, but he looked really hard to approach. Xiao Qi felt she didn't even dare to chat casually, so it was relatively difficult to practice speaking Japanese.
But with her current language sense buff, not using it felt like quite a waste.
There was also the Korean Jin Zaiyan was teaching her, just barely started, a sentence here and there, she learned how to say eating, shopping, greetings, Xiao Qi was wondering whether to learn Korean, if she wanted to learn it, she should start systematically, otherwise it would be a waste.
Her English foundation now felt very good, Xiao Qi did so many past CET-4 test papers she lost count, she had basically gone through a round of test papers from previous years, and felt relatively confident there should be no problem, she had now started doing CET-6 test papers.
But she couldn't take CET-6 directly, she could only take CET-4 first.
She was mainly doing CET-6 test papers now, and when the exam approached, she would take out the CET-4 test papers and go over them again.
Xiao Qi finished jogging and returned to the dorm. Mi'er had just woken up, Wei Cheng went to the rooftop to study, Yunshu had washed up and was slowly grooming her flowers.
Of the roommates, Yunshu seemed to be the best at enjoying life, she just seemed to take life very slowly, living her 18 year old life like she was 68, retired early.
The one who loved to sleep in the most was Mi'er. She was always very excited at night and couldn't get up in the day. Every day Xiao Qi had to shout to wake her up, it had become a task.
After finally getting Mi'er up, the four roommates went to eat together.
Xiao Qi had eaten the noodles and congee of Meng City, in comparison, the light meals at the school cafeteria were also very good without adding too much stuff.
After breakfast, they went to class together.
It was still early, Teacher Wei had arrived and also brought the homework from last class, giving it to Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi had her roommates help hand it out, seat numbers corresponding to student IDs was easy to manage, whether people had arrived or not, just put it on their seat.
Getting her own homework notebook, Xiao Qi found the teacher had graded very carefully, pointing out any small issues, and finally giving an excellent.
Mi'er got a good+, she was a little careless and got a word wrong.
Compared to the first class, the students were all much more experienced, though there were still some empty seats in the classroom, some students skipping class, in terms of skill at skipping class, college students probably maxed that out already, knowing Teacher Wei was not one to take attendance, so they simply didn't show up. Of course if they were unlucky enough to run into the teacher suddenly taking attendance, they could still get their roommate to shout for them to come running back in time.
Teacher Wei had a very good temper, as long as it wasn't too noisy he basically didn't care.
Of course there were also very serious teachers, like Teacher Shi for Marketing, who would definitely take attendance, once at the start of class, once at the end, forcing everyone not to skip class, after all attendance was a large part of the usual grades, frequently missing class when called on, directly losing those points, then just testing average, would mean failing the course directly.
Xiao Qi didn't really understand the mentality of students skipping class, because for her getting to university had been very difficult, receiving the admission notice, she felt she might have to drop out. When she really shouldered her bag and got on the high speed rail, it still felt like a dream.
In the dorm Wei Cheng also had the same feeling, she had older siblings who had supported her family, the burden was too much.
Not daring to skip class or waste time.
Besides, the content of the English for Academic Purposes class was quite a lot and difficult, different from normal English, it was professional English, Xiao Qi hadn't memorized many of the vocab words before, learning more meant knowing more. With her memory buff in effect, she was even more unwilling to waste any time, able to memorize more then she memorized more.
She had set her phone to vibrate, during class when it buzzed she ignored it.
Because if she was distracted to check her phone, she might miss what the teacher was saying.
Not until after class did Xiao Qi take her phone out.
Unexpectedly it was a message from the chairman of the Calligraphy and Painting Society. Previously the chairman had sent her a form to fill out, it seemed to be an application to join the Meng City Calligraphy Association. She had properly filled it out and sent it back to the chairman. Now the chairman was telling her there was a result, asking her to go to the society in the afternoon.
