Chapter 414 Looking Back, Different Identity
After a winter vacation, Mu Zhengguang's weight exceeded 140 kilograms.
At the beginning of the new semester, Xu made a new weight loss plan for Mu Zhengguang: breakfast energy cannot be reduced, if it is reduced, he may be hungry during class. Lunch and dinner energy cannot be reduced either, because it is just the beginning of the school year, there are many classes, no time to cook, and it is difficult to accurately control the amount of food eaten in the cafeteria. So the only way is to reduce snacks. In addition, to increase the amount of exercise, walking alone is not enough, but running is also necessary.
When Mu Zhengguang was running, Xu always sat on the side and watched. Unless there were few people on the playground, Xu would not start running.
When Mu Zhengguang stopped running and started walking instead, Xu would naturally walk up to him, hand him water and paper, and walk side by side with him.
Mu Zhengguang could understand why Xu didn't want to run. If he were Xu, he wouldn't want to run in this environment. It wasn't because of any doubts or criticisms from the outside world, but because he was not used to it, and wanted to "prevent problems before they happen."
As various courses come to an end, the weekly class time gradually decreases. One of Mu Zhengguang and Xu will have no classes in the morning or afternoon and can cook and fry vegetables, and they don't have to eat out for the next two meals.
At night, if the weather is suitable, the two will find a park outside the school, or find a road with not too many people to walk together, at least 10,000 steps. At this time, if Mu Zhengguang is running, Xu will run with him.
In their sophomore year, Mu Zhengguang and Xu successively experienced metalworking internship and each made a hammer.
The internship organized by the school was short-lived and inefficient, and seemed like a formality. But this internship was also useful. When Xu decided to find a company for internship, he must not look for similar companies.
After all the courses and exams are over, Mu Zhengguang is faced with a big problem: How should I spend this summer vacation?
This summer vacation I definitely can't do nothing like last summer vacation, and stay at my parents' house to enjoy a leisurely life. However, I really like "doing nothing" and "leisurely days".
Sister Xu has already found a company and is about to go for an internship. Should I also look for a company for an internship? It doesn't matter if it's far from school, as long as I can find one.
When summer vacation came, Mu Zhengguang's weight dropped to 132 kilograms. This was the first good news. The second good news was that he also found a job. Since he found a job, he had to tell his parents that he would live next to the school this summer and would not go back for the time being. After that, there was something more important to tell them, that is, Xu also lived next to the school and the two were together.
To Mu Zhengguang's surprise, when he told his parents about these two things, they didn't ask any further questions, nor did they mention increasing living expenses. This was just right, his family didn't have to add burdens because of his choice, and he didn't have to feel guilty about the burdens.
From Monday to Friday, Mu Zhengguang and Xu went out early and came back late, and could only meet at night. This new lifestyle made them think of the same word, "living".
After a month-long internship, Xu decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination after careful consideration and repeated comparisons. It was not because she had suffered much injustice during the internship, but because she wanted to test her own limits.
Xu made a decision, and then returned to Qichuan City with Mu Zhengguang. Four years of college, four summer vacations, the next summer vacation, which is the third summer vacation, she has to study and review, and has no time to travel. In the fourth summer vacation, Mu Zhengguang has to work, and may not have time to travel. So, right now, take advantage of this summer vacation, take advantage of the last ten days, and take another look at the mountains and rivers of the world.
"Student Xiao Mu, let's go to Yongjie City and Hujiang City to have a look."
Xu planned to go to Yongjie City to see the mountains and to Hujiang City to see the lake. Part of the money earned from the internship will be used for travel, and part will be used to pay rent. As for which part is more and which part is less, and how big the difference is between the more and less parts, it doesn't matter. Even if there is no money left after the travel, her savings plus the living expenses for the new semester will be enough to pay the rent. "Okay." Xu invited him to travel, and Mu Zhengguang gladly accepted. Four years of college are already halfway through, and there are not many opportunities to travel to distant cities. The existing savings must be spent. After finding a job, this little savings will not play a role, but at this time, this money can be exchanged for real happiness.
The trip lasted seven days, five days and five nights in Yongjie City, and two days and one night in Hujiang City.
For this trip, Mu Zhengguang and Xu no longer set a budget, and they spent most of the money they earned during the summer vacation.
In the third year of university, the school organized production internships and familiarization internships. There were more internship projects and more content involved.
In their curriculum, there is a new thing, course design. Like internship, course design also takes up a whole week, such as week 1, week 1-2, week 1-3.
In their third year of university, Xu and Mu Zhengguang successively withdrew from clubs, departments and associations.
Xu did not hold an important position in any club or department, and she left such organizations in the first semester of her junior year.
Mu Zhengguang joined an organization similar to the Mental Health Association and was promoted to vice president in the first semester of his junior year in college. He quit the association later, but before his senior year.
The once exciting and colorful college life that I imagined seems to have disappeared just like that?
“Whether a life is vigorous and colorful does not depend on whether you join a large organization, make key decisions, achieve major achievements, or the opinions of others. Instead, it depends on whether you make more right choices and do more right things after a period of time, or whether you make more wrong choices and do more wrong things? After these things happen, are we closer to our life goals?”
Mu Zhengguang suddenly remembered Xu's words when he was washing dishes. At that time, he replied to Xu, "There are more correct things. It is closer to the goal of life."
This summer, Xiao Xu is preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. She has a plan for what to do at each time period of the day. Her self-discipline is enough to allow her to do things according to the plan.
However, after a day of study and after dinner, she needs someone to chat with her, talk to her, listen to her, or walk with her, so that she can relax and face tomorrow's study actively. It would be even better if this person can also take care of her three meals a day.
Grocery shopping, cooking, washing dishes, mopping the floor, these are all done by me. It seems that there are only three kinds of housework left for Sister Xu to do? Washing clothes, hanging clothes, and taking a bag of garbage with you before going downstairs.
Doing a lot of housework may be considered colorful, but can it be considered vigorous? I'm afraid not. However, I don't need to pursue the so-called vigorous. When Xu is busy preparing for the exam, I do more housework. This is to fulfill my responsibility and fulfill my responsibility as a partner. Moreover, it is a very happy thing to help Xu share the pressure of life.
During this holiday, Mu Zhengguang no longer went out for internship. He did simple part-time jobs online and earned some pocket money that satisfied him, just like the summer vacation during his freshman year in college.
During this holiday, Xu asked his family for two months' living expenses. Xu gave all the money to Mu Zhengguang as a token of his gratitude for his efforts.
