When I woke up, it was snowing outside.
Sitting on the bed, Su Jinyan could see a layer of white snow on the road downstairs. Many classmates were walking towards the dormitory building in the snow, carrying or dragging their luggage.
Watching all this, I felt a little funny.
After many twists and turns, she actually has to go to college again.
I still remember how happy she was when she graduated from high school in her previous life. The whole dormitory had a party for two days just to celebrate that they no longer had to get up early to memorize books, and no longer had to experience the day and night memorization before the exam...
well……
She really doesn't like to continue going to school. Wouldn't it be nice to lie down?
After waiting for a while, Chen Meijun, who was lying on the opposite bed, sat up. Seeing Su Jinyan wake up, she smiled and nodded. At the same time, she also noticed that it was snowing outside.
She pointed outside and whispered, "Are you still going out?"
Su Jinyan paused for a moment and whispered, "It's not snowing heavily, let's go out for a walk. I want to see what books the library has."
Without mobile phones and novels, these days feel like years.
Thinking of novels, Su Jinyan suddenly remembered that she had read thousands of exquisite essays, short stories, and novels. Her mind was full of such things. Perhaps this could be a way to make money for the time being.
In order to stop the gossips and not to compromise your living conditions, you have to have a legitimate source of money.
After Lu Tingting woke up, the three of them put on their clothes and left the dormitory.
People of this era dressed very simply, in black, dark blue, military green, camel, and other coats. There was not even white outerwear, and military green and dark blue were the majority.
I think most people find it unbearable to be dirty.
The three of them walked on the road to school, strolling in the light snow.
Looking at the seniors leading the way and the freshmen carrying their luggage, the three of them felt very peaceful for a moment.
Appreciate it slowly.
Lu Tingting was now full of hope. She felt that all the suffering was finally over. She looked up at the snow falling from the sky, trying hard to suppress her tears.
Dad, Mom, Grandma, and Brother, I have not brought shame to our family. I will definitely vindicate you, so just hold on.
Chen Meijun was extremely calm at this moment. From the moment she stepped into the college entrance examination room, she vowed to make changes and would no longer be controlled by her family to marry someone she didn't want to marry.
Su Jinyan turned his head to look at the two of them, his eyes flashing. They all had stories.
The three of them arrived at the library. Su Jinyan and Chen Meijun applied for library cards and borrowed two books each. Su Jinyan did not expect that Lu Tingting had replaced it with a book that was entirely in English.
It’s amazing! As expected, students who can enter Peking University are not simple.
Su Jinyan saw a book called "Civil Code of the Chinese Nation" and picked it up as if possessed, and picked up another book called "Thirty-Six Strategies".
Well, don’t ask me why. The reason I’m asking is that I feel my brain isn’t working very well. I should read more laws and learn more strategies so that I can become smarter.
On the way back to the dormitory, I learned from Lu Tingting that the school has two supply and marketing cooperatives, one in the west and one in the southeast corner.
Their dormitory was on the west side, so Su Jinyan wanted to go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
She took a thermos. She thought that since she wanted to wash her hands and feet with hot water every day, she would need an extra kettle of water.
Chen Meijun also wanted to buy some snacks, so the two of them asked Lu Tingting to take the books back to the dormitory, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative together.
The school’s supply and marketing cooperative is quite large.
There are two floors, the downstairs sells some daily necessities and non-staple food, and the upstairs sells cloth, bed sheets, quilt covers, clothes, shoes, and even two bicycles and more than ten watches.
The two of them walked around for a while, and Su Jinyan bought a pound of milk candy, a pound of date cakes, half a pound of glutinous rice noodles, a pound of sandwich biscuits, a large tin thermos, a rice bowl, two aluminum lunch boxes, and a white enamel water cup.
When she saw a simple thermos cup, she didn't buy it. She found one in the space that was of better quality and had a larger capacity of milliliters, so she just took it out and used it when she got home.
Buy an extra rice bowl and make some soup for each meal, so you don’t have to borrow bowls from the canteen. The aluminum lunch box is just for convenience so that the soup doesn’t spill when you get the meal and bring it back to the dormitory. As for the white enamel water cup, it is just for backup.
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, seeing that the snow was getting heavier, Su Jinyan said, "Meijun, do you know if there is food in the cafeteria now? I want to go get dinner for dinner."
Chen Meijun looked at her watch. "We haven't started selling meals yet. The cafeteria's dinner hours these days are from 5:10 to 7:00. They might close a little later when school starts."
It was ten past five, and now it was four forty.
"Then I'll go wait for a while, so I don't have to go downstairs later."
"Then I'll go too."
The two turned a corner and quickly walked to the cafeteria. Unexpectedly, the cafeteria opened early because of the snow, and the food had already been served at several windows.
The two of them quickly washed their lunch boxes and ran to the window to get their meals while there were few people around.
Su Jinyan didn't want to be too conspicuous, in case people envied him, so in the evening he had a bowl of lean meat porridge, bought a mutton and green onion bun, two vegetarian buns, and a bowl of spicy and sour potato shreds.
She likes to sleep in, so she doesn't plan to get up early to go to the cafeteria tomorrow. There is an exposed iron pipe heater in the dormitory, so she can put the rice bowl on the heater and it will be hot the next day.
Now a mutton steamed bun costs only 1.5 cents plus two taels of food coupons, and 17 cents without a coupon. A vegetarian steamed bun costs only 8 cents plus one tael of food coupons, and 10 cents without a coupon. A large white flour steamed bun costs 4 cents without a coupon, and 3 cents with a coupon. A serving of stir-fried shredded potatoes costs 1.5 cents without a coupon. A serving of lean meat porridge, a full rice bowl, costs 20 cents plus two taels of food coupons, and 23 cents without a coupon. The price is several cents cheaper than that of the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the quantity is large and affordable.
She also specifically asked about the price of steamed bread. A steamed bread made of two liang of white flour and corn cost three cents and two liang of food coupons, a steamed bread made of pure corn flour cost two cents and two liang of food coupons, and a steamed bread made of two liang of corn flour and corn grits cost one cent and one liang of food coupons. Each steamed bread was about the same size as a steamed bun, but the price was much cheaper.
When Chen Meijun saw that Su Jinyan bought so much food, she was surprised but she didn't say anything.
After leaving the cafeteria, the snowflakes were much denser. It was close to evening and the wind was getting stronger. There were very few people in the college. The two of them quickened their pace and hurried to the dormitory.
