Chapter 9 Expired Milk The median annual median household income in the United States in 1994 was $51,000.In 1994, the average tuition fee for the top 30 universities in the United States was $2, and the combined cost would be more than $4 a year when miscellaneous fees, books, room and board, and other expenses.Catherine, on the other hand, wants to go to college, ideally with a full scholarship, or she can only try to apply for Pell Grants, supplemented by federal student loans, and the extra money is made up by private lenders.Otherwise, you have to go to a public university in the state with cheap tuition.The ceiling of women's volleyball is obviously not as good as that of rugby, and it is not easy for Catherine to get a full scholarship with this.If there is a choice, Ethan does not want Catherine to apply for student loans, this year is the peak of the interest rate hike cycle, the average mortgage interest rate is 8.38%, and the average student loan interest rate is also 7.81%, which may have to accumulate to pay off $40-50 in debt (25 years) in order to go to college."
When the time comes, I'll get together with Mia and try to get you to college without taking out a loan."
Ethan said suddenly.Looking at Ethan's serious appearance, Catherine burst out laughing: "Do you really think you can pay for college by selling some medicine?"
It's better to keep it for yourself, and not only me, but also yourself.I've got to figure out a way to make money right away. ”"Guess where I got the money for the checkout?"
Ethan thought back to her act of paying the bill, and her mind suddenly chuckled.He hurriedly grabbed Catherine's shoulder: "Promise me, don't go astray!"
”That's probably the last thing Ethan wants.Catherine was stunned for a moment, then explained with a smile: "What do you think, when I was packing, I brought out some of your dad's treasured vinyl records, including some jazz out-of-print from the 60s, and one can sell for nearly $200, which adds up to about $3,000." ”Ethan breathed a sigh of relief."
Do you know you're worried about me?
I didn't hurt you in vain. ”Catherine leaned closer."
It's not just you, it's Mia, William, we've got to get over this, and everything will be fine."
Ethan Road."
Of course, but that's not what you want to think about, you just need to study hard, play well, and we'll take care of the rest, you're going to play next week, and I'll take you to Century City on the weekend to buy a pair of professional rugby shoes."
Catherine put her hand on Ethan's shoulder."
I trained all afternoon today, so tired, lend me a shoulder.""
Do you want to go back with you?"
Ethan suddenly proposed.Catherine patted Ethan on the head."
I'm too heavy, and I'll crush you."
Catherine twisted her head to the other side, unable to see her expression.Compared to girls of the same age, Catherine is indeed considered heavy, but it is more due to her height and participation in sports.Not only does she not have fat on her belly, but she has a looming abdominal muscle line.She is a full 25 centimeters taller than the average woman in the United States, taller than a fashion model, and surpasses many boys, only slightly lower than Ethan.It is precisely because of this height that the vast majority of boys are discouraged.In addition, there are two dazzling existences, Sarah Gayla and Jennifer Hewitt, which cause her to be discussed a lot less."
Rest early, I'll wake you up tomorrow morning."
Catherine said as they parted in the motel hallway.Ethan turned around and heard the sound of Catherine pushing the door open, Mia's questioning of Catherine, and the crackling of a mechanical typewriter.Early the next morning, while Ethan was still asleep, the quilt was lifted.
“F**kyou！”
Catherine quickly turned around, and then threw the pants on the back of the chair on Ethan's head.
“Surprise！”
Ethan dodged the flying pants.I thought it was time to learn to knock on the door.Catherine had already walked out of the room.Because they got up early, the two of them ate breakfast in Ethan's room without hurrying, and Catherine fried two extra eggs and opened a large carton of milk.Ethan tried to take a sip and found that something didn't taste right, and checked the factory date only to find that it had expired for a day."
It's only been one day, and the expiring milk is cheaper, except for some differences in taste, it still has nutritional value."
Catherine held her chin in her hands and looked at Ethan.She belongs to the "offering personality" and feels an extra sense of satisfaction when she sees others being cared for by herself.Speaking of which, after such a woman gets married, she often becomes a virtuous wife......
In addition, Catherine is also a good cook, and after some processing by her, Ethan feels that it is better than last night.lt; divcss=ot; ntentadvot; gt; There were so many people on the bus today, and with passengers rubbing shoulders one after another, Ethan naturally stood behind Catherine, grabbing the railing with his arms and "wrapping" her.After arriving on campus to separate from Catherine, Ethan went to his locker to check out today's class schedule."
Look, it's him.""
That's right, it's all in the school newspaper.""
New members of the rugby team!"
Ethan turned his head and found that it was the two girls next to him who were looking at him and talking in a low voice.Noticing Ethan's eyes, the two of them looked a little embarrassed, and then put on a smile at Ethan."
Hello, my name is Naomi."
The girl with straight blond hair greeted Ethan very generously."
What's your class going to?"
I remember seeing you in Spanish class?
”The girl next to her with short black hair and a complexion that looked like a mixed-race child asked."
That's right, it's a Spanish class, so we're classmates."
Ethan looked at their short skirts."
How did you both do in Spanish?"
Ethan asked suddenly.The most difficult thing for him now is the awkward Spanish class, and he has no foundation in this language at all."
Amy's mother is from Venezuela, and Spanish is her mother tongue."
Naomi introduced with a smile."
What a coincidence, the three of us can sit together later, can't we?"
Ethan nodded.The two girls looked at each other and replied in unison, "Who says it's not." ”“Porfavor，paseellibrodetextoapga105，hoyvaosaaprendereltiepoenespaol.”
An elderly Spanish teacher walks past Ethan.The girls on Ethan's left and right couldn't help but look at Ethan, looking at his delicate facial features, heroic eyebrows, jewel-like eyes, and broad chest, and couldn't help but feel overjoyed.That's one of the benefits of rugby players, and the girls in the school tend to focus on these people, and the gossip they usually talk about is only about the athletes in the school.Coupled with Ethan's appearance, this extra attention could turn into ......
Like.And when Ethan asked the two of them about some points they didn't understand just now, of course the two would readily agree.Ethan believes that with the selfless help of the two female students, his Spanish scores will improve rapidly.At noon, the three of them got together for lunch, and the lunch time in high school was only half an hour, and there was almost no spare time, and the students ate some simple food.Compared to the love bento prepared by the mothers of Asian students, which had a staple food and side dishes, white students were more casual in eating.Ethan had two bacon sandwiches prepared by Catherine, Naomi was eating a box of Japanese sushi, and Amy even ate only some cut fruit at noon, and it was almost no sugar like kiwi dragon fruit and tomatoes.These high school girls began to pay attention to their bodies at this time, listened to the chat between the two, and went for a run together at night."

Do you also exercise at night?
We can be together. ”Naomi offered to extend an invitation to Ethan."
I'm ......"
Ethan actually wanted to go to their room in the evening to learn Spanish, thinking about how to answer.I only felt a sharp pain in my abdomen, as if my stomach was twisted into a ball by a hand that had been invisible all along.Seeing that Ethan didn't answer, he frowned slightly."
Ethan doesn't like the two of us, he likes big stars."
Seeing this, Amy suddenly said with some grief.She remembered that in the introduction of Ethan in "Highlights", Ethan's sweetheart was specifically mentioned, which was Sarah Gayla in the cheerleading squad.It's not what you think!
But now it's too late to explain."
Wait a minute, ladies and gentlemen, please give me some time."
Ethan stiffened his feet and looked for the restrooms on campus.After reading it, remember to bookmark it for next time!
