Chen Meizhen rolled her eyes at Bai Jiaojiao: "Don't you want to review your study materials? The midterm grades for the three subjects you're taking this time account for 20% of the final grade!"
In fact, there were quite a few students in the class who thought the same way as Shu Manling. Although they were not as poor as Shu Manling, everyone's family was not well-off, so they tried to save money wherever possible. It was not a bad idea for two people to share one set of study materials and study together. Wouldn't it be better to save a bun?
In addition, everyone is now studying with great effort. Some people, like Bai Jiaojiao, are practically eating their books, trying to highlight the key points.
If I go to work in a hospital in the future, will the patients who come to me for treatment still be the ones with the most serious illnesses?
"Yeah, class monitor, I think these review materials are optional. Can we just do what Bai Jiaojiao said?"
One student immediately agreed.
Chen Meizhen was at a loss for words, so the vice class monitor stood up and agreed: "But this class fee still needs to be paid. We asked around and found that other classes pay this amount. If it's used up, we'll collect more. If it's not used up, we'll return it to everyone after graduation."
The deputy squad leader's words were fairly fair, so Shu Manling didn't ask any more questions, but her face was full of worry.
Xu Yue grabbed Shu Manling and said, "It's okay, I'll cover the money for you first, and you can pay me back when you have more money."
The school's subsidies are paid out every two months, and this one hasn't been paid out yet. If Shu Manling pays this money, she really won't be able to afford to eat.
Shu Manling quickly said, "Thank you, Xu Yue. I will definitely pay you back as soon as the school issues the subsidy next time."
"Don't worry, just pay me back one cent at a time, slowly. We'll be classmates for four years, no rush. We'll look at the materials together later, there are three subjects, I can't study all three at once." Although Xu Yue wasn't from a wealthy family, her family gave her fifty yuan a semester for living expenses, plus what the school gave her, so she lived a relatively comfortable life, at least she didn't have to worry about the fifty cents for class fees.
Shu Manling was almost moved to tears.
With Xu Yue's help, Shu Manling's predicament was temporarily relieved. Of the three of them, only Xu Yue went to ask for the information, while Bai Jiaojiao thought she didn't need it.
After the class was dismissed, Bai Jiaojiao saw Shen Heng waiting for her under the streetlights outside the teaching building and said to the two of them, "Tomorrow is Saturday, come to my house for dinner."
Previously, Bai Jiaojiao didn't dare invite the two of them to her home, fearing that Gao Peifu might suddenly come to her house and cause trouble, scaring them away.
"Really? Bai Jiaojiao, are you still making shrimp dumplings for me? Could you make more?"
Xu Yue's eyes shone even in the darkness.
"Yes, yes, yes. Shu Manling, is there anything you'd like to eat? Do you have any dishes from your hometown? Maybe I can make them?"
Shu Manling is from Lan Province, which isn't actually that far from them, so Bai Jiaojiao asked.
"I...I can eat anything."
Shu Manling hesitated, but Bai Jiaojiao assumed she was just embarrassed and didn't ask any further questions.
"Okay, let's meet at the school gate at 11:30 tomorrow morning!"
Bai Jiaojiao waved goodbye to them and ran towards Chen Heng.
Watching Bai Jiaojiao's cheerful yet anxious figure disappear into the distance, Xu Yue shook her head and said, "Tsk tsk, seeing her like this, I'm even thinking about getting married. Shu Manling, are you and your husband like this too? You must miss him a lot now that you're away at university, right?"
"Oh, no... Actually, marriage isn't that great. You're still young, don't think about these things."
The atmosphere suddenly became somber. Although Xu Yue was simple-minded, she wasn't stupid, and she immediately stopped asking questions.
