As soon as the car entered the school's designated parking lot through the side gate, a group of senior students wearing red volunteer armbands warmly surrounded us.
"Students, we are volunteers here to help you with the entire enrollment process. Please follow us."
After the lead volunteer finished speaking, everyone began to make contact in an orderly manner. Each family was accompanied by a volunteer who helped carry their luggage and showed them the way.
Liu Yihang and Yunyin were assigned to a male volunteer and a female volunteer, respectively.
They were led to the location of the report.
The school is very large, so to make it easier for everyone to complete all the procedures at once, the registration point is set up in the dining hall near the student apartments.
First, you need to confirm your enrollment with the admission notice, and then go to the designated reporting point for your major.
Next came paying tuition and fees and being assigned dorm rooms. The tuition for their major was a little over a thousand yuan, and the annual accommodation fee was a little over a hundred yuan, which was neither expensive nor cheap. He was assigned a four-person room.
Liu Yihang had prepared some pocket money and put it in the bag outside, and successfully paid his tuition and fees.
They don't have their own house in Tianzhou City yet, and it's their first year of school, so he'll definitely have to stay in the dormitory; that's not a concern.
The school is quite humane. Although they charged more than 100 yuan for accommodation, they also provided a complete set of bedding, including sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, and a sleeping mat.
Although the quality is average, it's been sufficient for the past few years.
They were also given a set of military training uniforms, and students had to undergo a month-long military training before the start of the university semester.
The last step is to apply for the school's meal card, water card, and library card.
A meal card, as the name suggests, is a card used to swipe for meals in the cafeteria. A water card can be used to get hot water from the school's water dispenser and to take a shower in the public bathhouse. A library card is a card used by the library to manage borrowed books.
Once everything is completed and they receive their dormitory keys, the volunteers will lead them to their dormitories.
This means that the two who have traveled together for so long will have to part ways.
Liu Yihang had to say goodbye to Yunyin. It would be difficult to see her again in the next couple of days. He wondered if they could be assigned to the same class.
"Goodbye, Yunyin!" Liu Yihang reluctantly handed Yunyin her luggage.
Goodbye, Liu Yihang!
The volunteers led Liu Yihang and his family to the dormitory building where he was assigned. Seeing that they could carry their luggage, they took the opportunity to say goodbye.
The family went upstairs to the dormitory door, which was locked. Liu Yihang took out his key and opened the door. He had arrived earlier and was the first person in the dormitory.
The dormitories at that time were quite simple, far less luxurious than those in later generations, but much better than the makeshift sheds they had lived in. They looked like new dormitories that had only been built a few years ago.
This dormitory has good natural light and a small balcony outside. On the balcony, there is a laundry sink and a wire clothesline. There is also a small toilet opposite the laundry sink.
In this day and age, these dormitories are already quite convenient. Some older dormitories don't have toilets in the rooms; they all have public restrooms.
There are four wooden bunk beds in the room, and next to each bed is a corresponding desk and cabinet. The cabinet can be used to store daily necessities, clothes, etc.
Now it's all empty, covered in dust, waiting for its owner to arrive.
"Hanghang, this school dormitory is really nice. It has everything and is very convenient. If we buy some toiletries, we can move in right away." Lin Guihua ran around looking at the dorms.
"It's great, even the toilet is inside the house, which makes it very convenient to do things like washing clothes."
Liu Xiangdong was also carefully observing the environment in which his son would live in the future.
Before that, in the car and during the time they were handling the paperwork, the two of them tried to keep quiet as much as possible, for fear of showing their timidity, being looked down upon, and embarrassing their child.
Now that no one's around, the two of them will feel much more at ease.
"The building I was assigned to must have been recently built, which is why there are toilets inside. I guess other older dormitories don't have them."
"That's great! Hanghang is so lucky!" Lin Guihua smiled broadly, as if she had gotten a great deal.
Liu Yihang chose a bed with a desk and good lighting, and put down the luggage roll he had just received.
"Let me tidy up!" Lin Guihua naturally took the bed sheet from her son's hand, wanting to help.
"Mom, I'm an adult now, I can do it myself, you rest." Liu Yihang bent down and started putting on the duvet cover.
"Alright, you can do it yourself then."
Lin Guihua couldn't stay idle. She looked around, found a tattered rag left by another student on the balcony, washed it clean, and started wiping the cabinets, tables, and benches inside and out.
While Liu Yihang was tidying the bed, a startled cry rang out.
"There's someone in the dorm!" a young man exclaimed in surprise.
Immediately afterward, Liu Yihang looked up and saw a handsome and sunny boy standing at the dormitory entrance, looking at him curiously.
"Hello, hello, new classmate, I'm Jin Yu, nice to meet you." Jin Yu extended his hand.
Liu Yihang naturally returned the handshake: "Hello, I'm Liu Yihang."
The two volunteers who followed Jin Yu put down their large and small bags of luggage and ran away as if they were escaping. Jin Yu alone had three or four suitcases.
A well-maintained woman stood at the door with disdain, glanced at Liu Yihang and his family of three, curled her lip in contempt, and then looked at the dormitory room.
"Xiaoyu, Mom told you not to live at school. Look how small this room is, it's not even as big as our toilet, and four people still have to live here."
"Why don't you listen to your mother and rent a place near the school? That way, I can have Sister Zhang come and take care of you, so you won't feel uncomfortable."
The woman's disdain made Jin Yu look at Liu Yihang somewhat awkwardly, but seeing that he had no expression, he felt relieved.
