Memories of a Bowl of Snow Swallow
Su Qi finished reading the book, but only spent two hours reading it.
It must be said that after her intelligence improved, Su Qi's reading ability also improved significantly. While she could not read ten lines at a glance and remember everything she read, she could certainly read a page of a book in three to five seconds.
It has a similar effect to the popular right-brain development promotional pages from the previous two days.
After reading the book, Su Qi only wanted to see An Ning and then avenge herself, letting her know what a true master was.
Guh—
At this moment, my stomach started to protest again.
Su Qi found it strange. Even though she didn't need to go to the toilet, her stomach was still digesting food. It was truly amazing!
If this were discovered by the relevant personnel, I would probably be thoroughly investigated!
Getting out of bed and slipping into her pink duck slippers, Su Qi felt that her little feet looked even whiter and cleaner because of the pink color, like a beautiful piece of glass.
If her legs hadn't nearly buckled when she stepped on the ground, Su Qi felt she would be in a better mood now.
She slowly walked towards the coffee table with her knees together. Su Qi used to think this action was just a little cute.
Su Qi Qi's current movement is simply because it is the most energy-efficient way to move. Fortunately, she is the only one in the room. If she were discovered, she would probably die of shame.
Some people couldn't wait to open the takeout. Even with the outer packaging still on, they could smell the faint, pleasant aroma of the food. This stirred up Su Qi's stomach churning.
However, the shopkeeper had tied the bag in a knot that was impossible to open. Su Qi tried for a long time but couldn't get it open, and in frustration, Su Qi took her hands and tried to tear the plastic bag apart.
But this plastic bag was incredibly sturdy; even when Su Qi stretched it to its longest length, it didn't break. Instead, it left a red mark on Su Qi's hand.
Su Qi then tore at the other side, and it was torn into a long strip just like the first side, but it didn't break. The takeout box inside was too big to take out.
Not only was the takeout box unopened, but both her hands were also covered in red marks. The delicious takeout was right in front of her, but she couldn't eat it because of the white plastic bag. At that moment, Su Qi felt utterly pathetic.
Comforting herself that waiting a little longer would make the food taste even better, Su Qi then went to tear open the white packaging bag of the Chinese-made product. However, reality once again told Su Qi that she had overestimated her Strength Value and underestimated the quality of Chinese products!
After several attempts to tear open the packaging, her face flushed red, Su Qi finally couldn't take it anymore and stuck out her sharp little tiger teeth.
The packaging bag finally broke, and the food was taken out of the plastic bag.
Su Qi was amazed by the quality of the takeout bags nowadays. She was even more amazed by the packaging. Inside the bag were two boxes with the words "Real Fresh Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Abalone Rice" printed on them, which seemed to be the name of the shop.
However, the shop's name was indeed quite simple and direct. The combination of "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall" and "Abalone" immediately made Su Qi think that the price was exorbitant.
After placing them on the table, Su Qi took another look at the white plastic bag she had just struggled with.
There's a small note on it; it's the order.
Signature Single-Person Set Meal: Rice + Snow Swallow + Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Abalone + Spicy Prawns
Total: 158 yuan.
What surprised Su Qi the most was that An Ning didn't have any discount coupons.
Is this the world of the rich? They don't even care about takeout.
Su Qi, who had been poor for several years, strongly condemned An Ning Ning's extravagant behavior.
Upon opening the two exquisitely packaged items, Su Qi remarked that the 100+ yuan takeout was indeed extraordinary.
The rice bowls are not disposable, but rather small earthenware pots, so the rice bowls can be washed and reused.
The prawns were served with the heads and shells removed and were seasoned with spicy flavor. They looked extremely delicious and came with a tray.
The best one has to be Snow Swallow, which is served in a cup and even comes with a cup holder.
Su Qi thought this was much better than the cup in her dorm room!
Opening the lid revealed a generous amount of translucent, glistening Snow Swallow, perfect for nourishing the skin. Three goji berries were sprinkled on top as a garnish, and a faint sweet aroma of rock sugar wafted from it. Su Qi swallowed, finding it surprisingly delicious.
The moment the thought crossed Su Qi's mind, she found it somewhat amusing. How come her tastes seemed to have changed after becoming a girl?
I used to hate Snow Swallow the most! Even when my own mother was chasing after me to eat them, I wouldn't eat them! Thinking about this, I suddenly felt a little sore in the corner of my eye.
Looking at this bowl of Snow Swallow Su Qi, memories slowly resurface.
That was a few years ago, when I was still living with my parents and attending junior high school near my home.
The Su family has a military background; Su Qi's great-grandfather was a member of the Eighth Route Army, and the Su family continues to uphold military traditions. Su Qi Su Qi's grandfather and father were both qualified soldiers.
Soldiers take it upon themselves to accomplish their goals, Su Qi's father and his two brothers also respected military culture in educating their children.
The children in Su Qi's generation are named using numbers. From the firstborn Su Weiyi to the youngest Su Qi.
The three couples have a total of seven children, with Su Qi being the youngest.
Because she was born prematurely, Su Qi was always thin and weak, and due to her weak immune system, she would often get sick.
Su Lujun, a former soldier, wasn't particularly fond of Su Qi's sickly appearance. He believed boys should be lively and active, not effeminate. Su Qi understood this principle, but how could she control her illness?
What child doesn't want their parents to like them? Su Qi knew that she couldn't meet her parents' physical requirements, so she tried her best to study.
At this point, we have to Su Qi Qi's brothers. It can be said that strict teachers produce outstanding students, or that like father, like son! Su Qi has been an excellent student since she was born and raised by her six brothers.
Even though Su Qi ranked first in her grade, she still couldn't gain the approval of her father Su Lujun.
Although her mother, Lu Ran, always comforted herself, Su Qi, a boy, always wanted his father's approval.
Su Qi worked even harder, wanting to prove herself. In the second semester of her first year of junior high, she taught herself to skip the second semester of her second year of junior high and achieved a score of 29 in the second grade, which was truly remarkable.
After seeing the results, Su Lujun simply said, "Not even in the top ten! Not even as good as your fourth brother!"
These words were like a sword piercing Su Qi's chest.
This foreshadows Su Qi's later life as a boarding student in high school, her gradual rebelliousness, and her eventual disobedience to her father by secretly applying to Su University.
Su Qi remembered that before she went to university, her mother, Lu Ran, cooked her a bowl of Snow Swallow soup. At that time, she didn't have as much sweets as she does now, so she declined.
Looking back now, she regrets it. Su Qi still remembers the scene of pushing the bowl back and her mother Lu Ran's hesitant expression.
He was then ordered by his father to be kicked out of the house.
A lot of time has passed in the blink of an eye, although her parents have called a few times in between! Her mother always tries to persuade her to give in to her father, acting like a nice guy.
Although Su Qi was physically weak, she had learned a lot from Su Lujun, including his stubborn and unyielding personality. And so the situation remained tense.
As for phone calls with Su's father, aside from the one at the start of the semester, they usually ended after only a minute or two.
Looking at the bowl of glistening snow Snow Swallow, Su Qi felt a pang of longing for her mother and wished she could drink the Snow Swallow she had made herself again.
This time she'll definitely eat it all obediently!
