Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Yi Zhonghai had already gone to work a few days ago. As he expected, the steel rolling mill did not pursue the matter, but there were quite a few people gossiping behind his back.

There was nothing he could do about it, so he could only choose to keep a low profile and wait for everyone to forget about it over time.

Since Yi Zhonghai's misfortune, He Daqing has also calmed down and is living a pretty good life. Although he has only been back for a short time, he has already received two banquet invitations.

One time, Sha Zhu hosted the banquet, and another time he hosted it himself. The host was very satisfied with his cooking skills and gave him a generous red envelope. He even picked up his lunchbox again, which was quite enviable.

As for the other two old men in the courtyard, they now address Sun Dajiang differently. They no longer call him Dajiang directly, but now they all call him "Uncle Yi".

Even Sun Zhengguo sometimes lamented that Yi Zhonghai, the so-called "Moral Heavenly Ruler," has now lost his morality, stepped down, and is now infamous.

The biggest cancer in the compound, the necromancer Jia Zhangshi, went to jail for stealing meat, and the Jia family was finished.

He Daqing, a widow enthusiast, has "returned in glory," but his reputation is now so bad that he can't even find anyone to fawn over.

Because of these changes, the courtyard houses have become much quieter and more peaceful. The courtyard houses of today can be called harmonious courtyard houses.

However, Sun Zhengguo didn't have time to pay attention to these things, because he had to go to school to register the next day.

"Zhengguo, Zhengan, is everything ready? We need to report for duty tomorrow, so don't forget to bring it."

The two children will be starting school tomorrow, Lin Wencui gave them instructions after dinner.

"Don't worry, Mom, everything is taken care of."

“I’m not worried about your brother, since he doesn’t live on campus anyway. I’m worried about you. You need to take good care of yourself after you start living on campus.”

Looking at her second son, Lin Wencui said with concern.

"Oh my goodness! Don't worry! The school has everything you need, and there are even subsidies. Don't overthink it."

Sun Zhengguo, who was standing to the side, nodded in agreement, indicating that the country now attaches great importance to highly educated talents.

Take his university education as an example. Not only did he not have to pay any tuition fees, but he also received a monthly subsidy of 21.6 yuan. Can you imagine this happening in later generations?

"You're so glib. Learn from your older brother and be more composed in your actions. Stop showing off your cleverness all the time."

Hehehe!

Sun Zhenghong chuckled to himself.

"Mom, my second brother's mouth isn't all bad either; he even has a girlfriend now."

After firing a follow-up shot, Sun Zhenghong quickly hid behind Lin Wencui.

"Sun Zhenghong, I will never let you get away with this."

Sun Zheng'an pretended to be angry and shouted, but in his heart he was overjoyed. He thought to himself, "I found my girlfriend through my own abilities. You can't be envious of me."

Seeing her children bickering and playing, Lin Wencui felt a pang of emotion. In the blink of an eye, her children had all grown up and become successful, while she herself was slowly getting old.

It's true that the new generation replaces the old, and time doesn't stop for anyone.

...

The next morning, Sun Zheng'an packed his things, got on his bicycle alone, and went to school to register.

Since it was along the same route as his older brother, Sun Zhenghong has started going to school with him again.

After dropping off his sister, Sun Zhengguo rode his bicycle alone to Tsinghua University.

Upon arriving at the university, you can see Tsinghua University's famous arched gate from afar, and a sense of historical vicissitude washes over you.

Sun Zhengguo stopped the car, pushed open the gate, and slowly admired the scenery inside the school.

Walking along the tree-lined avenues of the school, you can see students everywhere carrying their bags, their faces beaming with enthusiastic smiles as they step into university full of hope.

The campus is picturesque, with ancient buildings and modern teaching buildings complementing each other, creating a simple and elegant atmosphere that exudes a strong cultural ambiance.

The large lawn in the center of the campus is lush and green, and the flowers beside it are colorful and vying for attention, emitting a refreshing fragrance. Some older students are taking a leisurely stroll and enjoying the beauty of nature.

Gazing at the beautiful scenery, Sun Zhengguo was completely mesmerized. In his previous life, he had dropped out of school after finishing junior high and had never been to university, let alone such a prestigious institution of higher learning. It all felt like a dream.

Before he knew it, Sun Zhengguo had arrived at the freshman registration area. The senior students at the registration area immediately came to greet him when they saw the new student.

"Hello! May I ask what your major is?"

When asked by his senior, Sun Zhengguo immediately took out his admission notice from his bag and handed it to him.

"I'm a mechanical manufacturing major in the engineering college, but I don't know where to register."

The senior student took the admission notice, glanced at it, and was very envious. Those who could get into the mechanical manufacturing major were all outstanding people. But then he thought that he was not bad either, and his mood instantly improved.

"Student, come with me, I'll take you to register."

"Thank you, senior."

After going through a series of complicated procedures, receiving new books, and getting meal tickets, the two finally completed their enrollment procedures.

The senior student then pointed out the location of the class to Sun Zhengguo, and the two parted ways amidst Sun Zhengguo's repeated expressions of gratitude.

After saying goodbye to his senior, Sun Zhengguo went to the classroom alone. He saw that some classmates had already arrived, nodded to them, and then randomly found a seat and sat down.

Before long, several more new classmates arrived. Just as Sun Daguo was getting bored, another new classmate arrived. Upon seeing this classmate, Sun Daguo was overjoyed.

"Haha! Zheng Wenhua, you're late this time."

Hearing someone shout, Zheng Wenhua turned around and saw that it was none other than Sun Zhengguo.

"Damn it! Sun Zhengguo, you're everywhere!"

Although he said no, Zheng Wenhua still strode over. The two best buddies were full of passion when they met. If there hadn't been so many people, they would have almost hugged each other.

Upon arriving next to Sun Zhengguo, Zheng Wenhua didn't bother looking for a seat and simply sat down next to him.

"Jung-guk, I never expected this! We're actually in the same class again. Don't you think this is fate?"

"No, no, no! Don't you realize your tone is a bit too cheesy? It's giving me goosebumps."

Sun Zhengguo pretended to look disgusted and said exaggeratedly.

"Get lost! If you like men, don't drag me into it. I still prefer my junior from elementary school, she's so sweet and gentle."

"Ha ha!"

"What a pity! Your junior is still in high school, she can't discourage me. Maybe she's with someone else right now?"

Sun Zhengguo fabricated a story out of thin air to retaliate against Zheng Wenhua.

"You're just jealous. If you're so capable, find one yourself. Anyone can make sarcastic remarks."

Zheng Wenhua retorted.

"Uh! Okay! You win, I'm completely defeated by you, but I'm just telling the truth, believe it or not is up to you."

And so, the two best buddies started bickering as soon as they met, undermining each other, one saying one thing and the other another, neither willing to give in. Several classmates nearby all pricked up their ears, eavesdropping on their conversation.

They couldn't understand why the two, who were just being incredibly affectionate, were now at odds. They wondered if they were going to start a fight!

They don't realize that if their high school classmates were there, they would definitely tell them, "Don't mind them, they're really close! What you're seeing is just the surface; their relationship is abnormally close."

The two were unaware that their very first day of registration had caused a misunderstanding among their classmates, and they were still gleefully and tirelessly trying to ruin his reputation.
