Chapter 0777: Treat
“Alright, teacher’s treat at noon, it’s considered to be a reception for Xiao Zhuang, you all come along!”
To say that Professor Meng really wasn’t very good at being a good person, the moment he said this, it turned into a few other people who had all dipped into Zhuang Rui’s favor.
Although Zhuang Rui’s several elder brothers and sisters didn’t say anything, the expressions on their faces were already not very good. Zhuang Rui knew that the old man was very direct in his speech, but he didn’t expect that he would be so inhumane, so he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly in his heart.
Beijing University has a special cafeteria for faculty and staff, there are also boxes inside, the master chef’s craftsmanship and the outside is not much worse, just have a meal without wine, how can this atmosphere is not warm up, after eating, Zhuang Rui followed Professor Meng back to the Institute.
Confused teacher also forgot to help Zhuang Rui introduced the names of a few brothers, but with Zhuang Rui’s worldly knowledge, set a few people or no problem, a meal down, he also inquired clearly.
The older one is called Ren Chunqiang, who is studying for Professor Meng’s doctoral degree, and the other two, one is called Jiang Yi and the other is called Wu Zhao, just like Kan Yuhan, all four of them are also doctoral students of Professor Meng.
After knowing the degrees that several people are studying, Zhuang Rui realized that Professor Meng’s so-called meaning of not recruiting master’s degree students.
As for the two undergraduates Zhuang Rui met last year, have now graduated, although they have the intention of reading a master’s degree, but Professor Meng is not willing to take a master’s degree, the two can only leave Beijing to participate in the work.
After returning to the Institute, Prof. Meng let a few students came to the office, said: “Xiao Zhuang, your national science foundation is still relatively solid, but in the antique line of mixing for a long time, contact with more than some of the wild history. However, our archaeology, we have to pay attention to the rigor, to restore the real history, it is not possible to guess out of thin air, so later on, you take some more basic classes, you can also go to the side of the ancient Chinese history, to build the foundation firmly some.”
“I know, teacher.”
Zhuang Rui nodded his head and agreed, he himself went to this major, just want to learn more theoretical knowledge, in fact, who the tutor is is not very important to Zhuang Rui, it’s not like he needs the tutor to use his influence to help the students to publish articles and recommend jobs.
“En, recently I’m going to bring Xiao Ren and Jiang Yi and the three of them to do a project, if you have any questions you can ask Xiao Kan, if you can’t give me a call that’s fine too.”
Prof. Meng thought about it, but still added a sentence, said, “You learn some more knowledge of ancient scripts, like Jinwen these must be mastered some, for the identification of unearthed artifacts is still very helpful, Xiao-Kan attainments in this area is good, you more to her to ask for advice.”
“Okay, teacher, I will, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go get the books and course schedule.”
Zhuang Rui agreed, after studying to graduate and post-doctoral level, basically he is following the teacher to do the project, but Zhuang Rui doesn’t want to get in touch with the excavation type of work so soon, he is trying to familiarize himself with the campus life first, and learn a little bit more theoretical knowledge.
“Good, ask Xiao Kan to accompany you! You’re not familiar with this, don’t get lost again.”
Professor Meng smiled at his words, his care for Zhuang Rui made the other few students quite jealous, they were doctoral students! The prospects were mostly greater than Zhuang Rui, a master’s student, the teacher was really favoring one over the other.
Both Zhuang Rui and Kan Yu Han agreed and after saying goodbye to Professor Meng, they took Zhuang Rui out of the office, ready to go to the Registrar’s Office to collect Zhuang Rui’s course schedule and books.
“Yu Han, Xiao Zhuang, wait a moment.”
Just after walking out of the gate of the institute, that cheap senior brother of Zhuang Rui, Jiang Yi, rushed out from the back and said, “Xiao Zhuang, we will be the same disciple from now on, at night, senior brother will be the host, find a place to have a meal, you can’t drink with a teacher, Yu Han, at night, you will go together as well!”
“Evening? Alright! It’s better to let me be the host and invite a few people.”
Zhuang Rui slightly frowned, this Beijing city big and small restaurants he also ate a lot, always feel not mom’s cooking is delicious, plus daughter-in-law is still pregnant, if not to see in the Jiang Yi genuinely invited on the part of Zhuang Rui really do not really want to go.
To be honest, in addition to the more stable Ren Chunqiang, Zhuang Rui on the several brothers and sisters and not much good feeling, since the age than they are a few years older, let Zhuang Rui shouting brother, Zhuang Rui is really not called out.
More let Zhuang Rui heart a little disgusted is, this Jiang Yi in front of their own, but also a mouth a senior self-proclaimed, also do not know where to come from the sense of superiority, can not be because he is a master’s degree students, they are doctoral students?
“Of course it’s senior brother my treat, Yu Han, you must come too!”
When Jiang Yi saw Zhuang Rui agreed, he looked at Kan Yu Han, which made Zhuang Rui feel, how come it seems like Jiang Yi wants to invite Kan Yu Han is the real thing, and he is just an accompaniment ah?
It seems that these several senior brothers are deeply influenced by the teacher, but also not very good at being a person, that is, they want to borrow this matter to invite a beautiful woman to dinner, then don’t make it so obvious ah!
“Okay! But I don’t drink, you guys don’t drink too much either.”
Kan Yu Han glanced at Zhuang Rui and agreed, she also had some curiosity in her heart, Zhuang Rui was only a master’s degree student, why did the teacher think so highly of him? There was a hidden momentum of training him as a closed disciple.
You know, Ren Chunqiang as Professor Meng’s most capable doctoral assistant, did not get the treatment of the teacher invited to eat a big meal, at most in the excavation site to a boxed lunch.
However, Professor Meng for the research results down after the reward, or quite generous, he never deducted the students deserve a share, often they will also stick out a lot.
Let’s say for example, if you can complete a national scientific research project, and after the national audit, each as an assistant to the students, and ultimately can be divided into a more than 100,000, and Professor Meng sometimes take even less than the students.
This is better than those who are usually warm to the students, but do the work every day to send a 100 yuan subsidy, is to take the students as a labor mentor, do not know how many times stronger.
Professor Meng this kind of behavior, so that his students are to its heartfelt respect, as for the usual indifference, also do not think so.
It’s just that Prof. Meng teaches strictly and rarely praises them in front of his students, today when Zhuang Rui comes, he hasn’t even attended school for a day and makes his mentor look at him differently, which also makes a few doctoral students feel a bit unconvinced in their hearts.
“Good, good, Xiao Zhuang, this is my phone number, when I’m at five thirty, be sure to call me ah! Let’s meet at the school entrance.”
Seeing that Kan Yuhan also agreed, Jiang Yi was instantly filled with smiles and handed Zhuang Rui a business card before turning around and going back to the institute.
“Master …… Kan, every time Professor Meng has a new student, will they get together?”
Zhuang Rui really shouted out the word senior sister to this girl who was younger than himself, and eventually learned from Professor Meng and called out Little Kan.
Kan Yu Han was slightly surprised to look at Zhuang Rui, but also did not object to this name, as the saying goes, the sea of learning, the master is the master, they did not show some ability, why let others shout sister ah?
Kan Yuhan thought for a moment after, said: “We are all outsiders, can become a teacher’s students, this is also fate, and archaeological academic exchanges are more, in the future students will often contact, so that mutual promotion, for everyone to carry out their work, or very good.”
“Oh, it’s like this!”
Zhuang Rui nodded, he kind of understood, dare this is accumulating contacts.
Because the archaeology specialty is relatively cold, generally everywhere in the archaeology department, it is to be headed by professionals, if there are their classmates all over the country, it is indeed will be very helpful for the work.
According to say read to the doctorate, the eye will not be so narrow, but the archaeological profession is different, this professional want to do something else, that there is no common place, can only roll in this circle, so good relations between classmates, is also very necessary.
After receiving the books and course schedule, Kan Yuhan left Zhuang Rui to the museum, he left, she also has a subject to do, summer vacation are not idle, now even less time to accompany Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui was also happy to be idle, after calling home, he seriously read the stack of books he had just received, of which there were quite a lot of professional books, but there were also some chemistry and history subjects, without realizing it a few hours had passed.
“Aigoo, it’s almost six o’clock.”
Zhuang Rui looked at his watch and suddenly remembered that the appointment was at 5:30, he hurriedly packed up his books, carried them out of the library, took out his cell phone and dialed the phone number left by Jiang Yi.
“Xiao Zhuang, isn’t the appointment five thirty? We don’t have your cell phone, it’s been half a day waiting in front of the school.”
After the call was connected, Jiang Yi immediately complained when he heard that it was Zhuang Rui’s voice.
“Hey, I’m really sorry, just now I was reading in the library, I forgot the time for a moment, you guys wait a little bit, I’ll go out right away, well, I’ll treat this day, it’s kind of an indemnity for everyone.”
Zhuang Rui was talking on the phone while rushing towards the entrance of the campus of Beijing University, by the time he got to the entrance of the school, it was already more than six o’clock.
“Xiao Zhuang, get in the car! Xiao Jiang has booked a place.”
Seeing Zhuang Rui running out from the school covered in sweat, Jiang Yi grunted, but didn’t say anything, Ren Chunqiang smiled and waved his hand to greet Zhuang Rui on his car.
Zhuang Rui looked, these people have a car, but the best is Ren Chunqiang’s Guangben, can be worth a two hundred and seventy-eight million, as for the other three people’s car, are more than one hundred thousand general models.
Zhuang Rui to Ren Chunqiang’s impression is very good, but he does not want to eat after dinner, and then run back to drive home, sniffed and said: “Ren elder brother, you tell me what place on the line, my car parked over there, a moment I go over on the line, Beijing I am familiar with.”
Ren Chunqiang heard that Zhuang Rui has a car, said, “That’s fine, the Drunken Immortal Restaurant over there in the West City, you come quickly!”
