245 books
After more than half a month of getting to know each other, Li Wei gradually got to know many of her classmates, but she always sat with Tang Ying.
There were significantly more female students than male students in the major. Looking at her female classmates, Li Wei couldn't help but sigh, no wonder Zou Yulong liked to go to the Teachers' College, there were just so many beautiful girls.
Besides Da Luo's school and the Teachers' College, this street also houses the Academy of Fine Arts, the Textile Institute, and the Finance Institute, making it a true academic street.
However, female students from teachers' colleges and art colleges are the most sought after, simply because there are many beautiful girls there.
Li Wei observed that their class had a total of twenty to thirty girls. The least attractive among them was of average appearance, while several were exceptionally beautiful. Their clothing and style were also much more fashionable than those of other departments.
Because the teachers' college recruits students from all over the country, there are students from all provinces in the class. For example, Tang Ying is from Henan.
Li Wei had a natural interest in observing beautiful women, but since they were all classmates, there wasn't much to say. The only person she felt close to was her English speaking teacher.
This is a male teacher in his thirties. Putting aside his appearance, his fluent London-accented English exudes a gentle and refined air that makes people feel at ease and comfortable.
His appearance was undeniably handsome; of medium to tall stature, with tanned skin, he typically wore cotton plaid shirts and jeans, looking every bit the refined and elegant scholar—the kind of guy a vixen would seduce.
He taught twice a week. Li Wei's teacher was named Gan Bailin, which made her think to herself, "That sounds like gambling."
In fact, although Gan Bailin looked refined and gentle, he was quite the gambler. He had been to sea, gone abroad, done business, and worked for others; he had reportedly done quite a lot of things. Li Wei arrived later. Sometimes she didn't know anything about what he talked about in class, like flower arranging. She only knew what Tang Ying had told her, and Tang Ying herself, along with many other girls in the class, were fans of Mr. Gan.
Looking at handsome male teachers and beautiful female classmates is all trivial. Li Wei held a huge timetable for all four years of major courses and electives, along with a long list of reading materials. She was overwhelmed.
Although this semester doesn't seem that intense, looking at those two whole pages of reading lists provided by each professor, Li Wei knows that university life probably won't be easy.
But clearly, others weren't lazy either. Li Wei went to the library to borrow books. She looked for one, then another, still nothing. Basically, the list of original books the teacher had given them was almost entirely gone by the students. There weren't any left in the stacks; they were all checked out.
Li Wei was furious. "I want to study, and you won't even provide the means? No means? I'll create them myself! I'm not arguing with the library anymore. I have money! I'll buy it myself!"
I took a weekend and went to the bookstore with Da Luo. We brought back a carload of books, about 60-70% of what we needed. I think if we come again, we can get everything. The books are downstairs; the upstairs is basically the study. Li Wei lives downstairs for convenience in taking care of the child. We neatly arranged the books we bought on the upstairs shelves. Suddenly, I realized that the upstairs is quieter and more suitable for reading and studying.
So, after discussing it with Da Luo, they moved the nursery to the larger bedroom in their original residence. This would allow for an extra crib for the postpartum nanny. Aunt Gao could also move from the shady room to the sunny room, which would be warmer in winter.
The room upstairs where baby supplies were originally kept was moved to the room on the north side of the first floor. Li Wei and Da Luo found the larger of the two guest rooms to use as their bedroom, which was convenient for reading and resting, and it was also inexpensive.
The second floor has a separate bathroom, and the entire study is quite spacious. Li Wei is quite satisfied with it, especially the thick solid wood table in the middle of the study. It is a neat rectangle without any fancy decorations, which looks both down-to-earth and quiet. The four chairs are also comfortable. Li Wei tried it out and found that she could sit on it and read a book in a calm state of mind.
Because the child is well cared for, and has a strong constitution, he has not had any major health problems except for going to the health center for vaccinations. His stomach and digestion are also good, and he is gradually gaining weight, becoming chubby and very cute.
Li Wei and her husband took a good look at their child, and they both agreed that the eldest looked like his father, the second like his uncle, and the little one... looked exactly like Ding Ding's invincible aunt, Ding Anni! (#) Damn it, Li Wei complained to Da Luo, "If you hadn't seen with your own eyes that I gave birth to this child, I would have suspected that Ding Anni was responsible. Do you think... as she grows up, she might look more like Xiao Lin?"
A certain person said, "Why would I want to look like Xiaolin? I'm sure I'll look more like you in the future. Don't worry, our daughter will definitely be a beauty, just like you, hehe..."
Li Wei's heart immediately lit up: "Really? I think I look better when I'm thinner. I'm a bit chubby now, so I need to exercise more to lose weight. At the very least, my waist needs to get thinner..."
A certain expert said: "Not fat, not fat at all, you're fine. Don't look like those skinny people in the ads, it's unsettling to look at, and you'll be freezing in the winter..."
Li Wei ignored him: "Hot water bottles are both bulky and warm. I'll get you two tomorrow. You can sleep with two hot water bottles in your arms from now on. As for me... I still need to lose weight. I don't want to be a hot water bottle."
The man's eyes darted around, and he quickly said, "I'll be your hot water bottle, I'll be your hot water bottle! Look, I'm the one warming you up, you're not as warm as me! I just think you look good whether you're a little chubby or a little thin, you don't need to go to all that trouble... really... look at your skin, your face, your little hands... your little... big..."
"What are you doing... Aunt Gao is right next door... Let go..."
What angered Li Wei the most was that Da Luo had somehow acquired a thick ancient Chinese manual on sexual techniques—
It's one thing for you to buy this kind of book, but at least put a cover on it like you used to do with the English textbooks you read. Instead, you just brazenly placed it among her original English books. If she hadn't been careful, she wouldn't have noticed. If someone else saw it, where would she put her face? She should at least get a sturdy cover herself, or hide it in a mouse hole so it doesn't embarrass her.
Someone muttered, "Seeing how studious you are, I was thinking of doing some research with you... I'll go cover the books now... um... I guess I'll just put them on your bookshelf. When you get tired of reading, you can pick one up to relax, and it'll be convenient to read later."
Li Wei glared at him: "You wish! I'm too busy reading books to have time for your entertainment. Keep it for your own amusement... By the way, you better hide it well. Otherwise, if anyone sees it, I'll never forgive you."
The man nodded: "Yeah, yeah, don't worry, I'll write 'Chinese-English-German-Japanese-Korean Dictionary' on the spine. Anyone who sees it will get dizzy, I guarantee no one will read it, hehe..."
Li Wei —
"This gimmick...is a bit too much, isn't it? You might as well just make a dictionary of the Eight-Nation Alliance."
The expert said, "Sure, I'll put an English-Chinese or Chinese-English dictionary like the Oxford one in your dictionary so you can flip through it while you're studying. Reading is always beneficial. If you need anything, just call me anytime. I'm on call 24/7."
Li Wei glared at him: "Fine, put it on the top shelf." Who knows who might see it if it's on the bottom? Hiding it is even less reliable. If Aunt Gao finds it while cleaning the house, she'll be even more embarrassed.
After attending school for over a month, Li Wei's daily routine has become relatively stable. She usually gets up around four o'clock in the morning. Around this time, the children will gradually wake up, and she needs to change diapers, make formula, and feed them. Sometimes she works with the on-duty postpartum nanny, and sometimes Aunt Gao and Da Luo also help out. With just the three of them, it takes at least an hour to get everything done.
Then Li Wei drank some water and started doing yoga for about an hour. For the sake of her figure and health, she decided to keep doing it.
Usually around this time, Da Luo would also get up, change his clothes, and go for a run, but Li Wei disliked the cold weather outside, sometimes with biting winds, and didn't want to go out.
After exercising, take a break, shower, change clothes, play with the kids, and have breakfast. Then it's time for school.
Li Wei's classes are mostly the two in the morning, sometimes four. If it's the third or fourth class in the morning, she'll sit in the nursery at home, looking after the baby while reading for two hours, and then take a taxi there herself.
Lunch is usually eaten at home with Da Luo, then Da Luo goes to school, and Li Wei continues to read books at home for the afternoon. In between, she helps the nanny take care of the baby, changing diapers and feeding. In the evening, the whole family of five plays together until the baby goes to sleep.
As for the time he spends reading, he said he can manage it at school, he doesn't need to spend all day reading a book... He was kicked by Li Wei and then fell silent.
Household chores, like cooking and household supplies, are usually handled by Aunt Gao after consulting with Li Wei. Aunt Gao also buys whatever Li Wei wants to eat or use; Li Wei rarely goes out. Occasionally, Da Luo drives with Aunt Gao to buy heavier groceries. On weekends, they go together to buy fresh seafood, chicken, duck, and other groceries, usually enough for almost a week. Aunt Gao buys the rest of the vegetables and fruits as needed.
Basically, life at home is quite comfortable.
Da Luo's three roommates often came over for meals, drooling with envy at the life he was living.
Li Wei also met several other classmates at school, one named Ma Liya and the other Xu Ting, both extremely lively and beautiful girls, and among the beauties Li Wei identified in the class. It was clear that the two were very close, always together and even sharing a dormitory room.
Xu Ting, in particular, bears a striking resemblance to Ding Anni in appearance and personality. It's clear that she comes from a well-off family; she lives in the suburbs, usually boards at school, and brings home a bunch of delicious food every week.
Usually on Mondays when going to class, I would stuff a lot of food in my bag for a few close classmates. Xu Ting was in front of me. We weren't usually close, and Li Wei was someone who was rarely seen and not even a nod to most of the classmates. But Xu Ting stuffed a big bag of fried broad beans into Li Wei and Tang Ying's bag. Li Wei and Tang Ying were flattered and overwhelmed. If they didn't accept it, they would seem stingy, so they had no choice but to accept it. Since they had eaten her food, they took the initiative to chat with her for a few minutes, and that's how they became acquainted.
Later, after they got to know each other better, Xu Ting proudly explained the bag of diplomatic broad beans: "Sigh, who told you to be so mysterious back then, you hardly ever talked to us. I was so curious. I knew every girl in my class, especially the pretty ones, inside and out: their names, ages, heights, weights, measurements, parents, siblings, marital status... I had firsthand information, but you disappeared like a whirlwind after class. I was so anxious."
Xu Ting's question about marital status refers to whether she has a boyfriend, and what her boyfriend's background, appearance, and education are...
Li Wei —
This guy is a future paparazzi elite.
