Yun Xia transmigrated into the body of a pitiful orphan in the 1980s, living in a den of wolves and constantly being bullied. Since she took over this body, she naturally had to avenge its original...
Chapter 177 Sending People to Jiangda University
“Brother, An’an has grown up and can protect Mom and Xia Xia. You should go to Rongda University; the educational resources there are excellent!”
Seeing the boy frowning and remaining silent, Yun Xia sighed and said, "Apply to Jiang University. Computer science is the future trend, and I firmly believe that as a top university, Jiang University will quickly introduce new technologies. One day in the future, it will definitely be more powerful than Rong University!"
"Hmm, Yunxia makes a good point, then... I'll apply to Jiang University!"
After saying that, she hugged the antique clock, slipped on her slippers, and walked back to her side bedroom.
Hiss, this guy already had the answer in his heart, but he just couldn't persuade his family. Now look what's happened, he's being stared at by several pairs of wolf-like eyes. Anyone who came here would feel their scalp tingle.
"Aunt Wu, big brother, Jiang An, Jiang University is really great. It's a key university in China, full of talented people. Even though the computer science major is newly established, it's still miles ahead of other ordinary universities!"
"The computer science program at Rongda University is truly top-tier in the country," a serious-looking husky murmured.
"Who can say what the next few years will bring? Jiang Chao was able to stand out in the city's high school with his perseverance and talent, which shows what kind of person he is. Why are you all worried about him now that he's an adult and in college?"
These words left the group speechless. The boy scratched the back of his head and looked up at the roof beam. Jiang An pouted, took the gifts, and went back into the house. Wu Lifang sighed first, then smiled and said, "Sigh, Xiaxia is right. We were worrying too much. It's good that Jiang Da is close to home. If you want to eat something, you can just come back. I can also take you out to play on weekends."
Once she accepted the situation, her mind would automatically make up for it. Yunxia took small steps forward and took the woman's arm. "Yes, Aunt Wu, there are so many advantages to living close to home. It's getting late, and you have to help out at the shop tomorrow. Go back to your room and get some sleep!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Lifang noticed that the clock had already struck 11 o'clock. She quickly urged the two of them back to their room, tidied up the living room herself, and then went back to her room to sleep.
Once the agreement was reached, the rest was easy. Within the stipulated time frame, they went to the school to fill out the application, and in early August, they received the admission notice, along with a 5,000 yuan bonus to cover tuition and textbook fees. After all, he was the top scorer in the city, which once again made the neighbors extremely envious.
Every time she passed by, she would hurl sarcastic remarks, frequently hurling insults like "unfilial," "broad-minded," and "selfish." Aunt Yang, with her hands on her hips, was a formidable fighter, scolding each of them one by one before finally stopping the gossipy women's sarcastic behavior.
The eldest son wasn't good at studying, but he was very healthy. After graduating from high school, he went straight into the army. The second son was in high school and his grades were average. The youngest son was very promising and always had top grades.
Her husband learned new technology and gained a foothold in the factory. The salary and benefits at the supermarket were good, and the Yang family's life became more and more prosperous. Therefore, Yang Zhaodi, who was grateful, cursed the gossipy women.
In early September, the school year began. Fortunately, Yunxia and Lichen were once again assigned to the same class and were still deskmates. The two smiled at each other, organized their books, and began their morning reading.
In the science class, there wasn't much to memorize; the focus was on understanding. Plus, the girl had a good memory, so she could memorize a text in just over ten minutes. With the remaining time, she would lie on the table and break down each paragraph.
Thump thump thump! Thump thump thump!
The head teacher, wearing reading glasses, stopped tapping the table when the girl looked over. "The year's plan starts in spring, and the day's plan starts in the morning. Getting into a top high school isn't easy, so don't slack off! Look what they're all doing!"
Upon hearing this, Yunxia turned her head to look around. Hiss! Before she knew it, everyone's reading voices had grown louder and louder, like cicadas in early autumn burning their last breaths and singing a loud song. After thinking for a while, she finally realized that it was probably because of the stern-faced old man in front of her.
She opened her textbook and, imitating them, began to read aloud. The head of the teaching department narrowed his eyes, put his hands behind his back, and walked away. Five minutes later, Yunxia, her throat parched, put down her textbook. While drinking water, she glanced out the window and was immediately met with a pair of sharp eyes. She was so startled that she choked on her water.
Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough!
"Xiaxia, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, just choked on some water. Who was that old man with the beer belly? Why was he secretly standing by the window trying to scare people?"
"Oh, that's our year's dean of students. He's notoriously grumpy. If you run into him, you have to act like a good student, or he'll have his eye on you for three years straight!"
Yunxia's lips twitched slightly. "Then... am I being targeted by him? Oh no, oh no! I chose the regular class precisely because I didn't want too much academic pressure. What am I going to do?"
"Don't worry, anyone with good grades is a good student in his eyes. You're already among the top students in your grade, so you don't need to worry about that at all. Here, I've got some new fruit candies for you."
His words reassured Yunxia a lot. She accepted the candy, smiled gratefully, and then... straightened her posture and pretended to read attentively.
In mid-September, the day of registration for the start of the semester at Jiangda University, Yunxia and An'an came to help. As for Feng Jingling, he had taken the train to Tianjin a few days earlier. Before leaving, he wiped his nose and hugged the girl tightly, refusing to let go. The boy, with a stern face, pulled her away and shoved her onto the train. The thud of the suitcase hitting the ground was mixed with a hint of personal grudge.
After completing all the registration procedures, I carried my bedding toward the boys' dormitory, but was stopped at the door.
"Girls are not allowed in the boys' dormitory!"
"Auntie, my brother brought a lot of things. Could you make an exception? I'll bring the things up and then come down. We can leave the work of making the bed and folding the blankets to them."
"No way, rules are rules. They can't be broken with just a few nice words. What's the point of having a dormitory manager then? Here's the list. It has the dormitory management regulations on it. If you dare to violate it, I'll report it to the school immediately and deduct your credits."
"Tch, what an old fogey, still the kind who makes a mountain out of a molehill," the girl sighed, her eyes filled with helplessness.
"If we can't take them all at once, we'll take them twice. Yunxia, you wait under the tree. An'an and I will go up first. The third floor will be quick!"
"That's all we can do!" After saying that, he stood under the big banyan tree at the entrance, carrying a large bag of luggage.
"Wow, this year's freshmen are really pretty. Look at their little faces, it's like you could squeeze water out of them if you just pinched them."
Judging from his flirtatious tone and his gaudy clothes, he didn't seem like a respectable person. Yun Xia shifted her body, turning her back to him, her unwillingness to talk to him was quite obvious.
"Oh, it's the chili pepper flavor again, I like it. Let me introduce myself, I'm Gong Yang, a freshman majoring in computer programming, class of '90, you can call me Lao Gong!"
A pun, huh, Lao Gong? Pshaw, more like a ram!
Just as he was about to retort, Jiang Chao, who exuded a gloomy aura, grabbed Gong Yang by the back of his collar and shoved him to the ground in a few quick movements. "Trying to be a pervert, huh? Don't you know whose sister she is!"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! It's just making friends, it's not as serious as you're making it out to be! Let go, hitting people is against the law! Auntie, dear dormitory supervisor, please come and save me!"
The dorm supervisor, munching on sunflower seeds: ...I don't want to save him, I'd rather kick him.
