Chapter 123 Making Rooms Available
After taking a nap, Shen Xuewei washed her face and combed her hair at Ye Meiling's urging, and then Ye Meiling dragged her to the computer room.
The first class in the afternoon is computer class.
Since there are only forty computers in the computer lab, students who arrive early can use a computer by themselves.
As for those who arrive later, they will have to share one computer.
The two of them were the first to leave the dormitory and the first to arrive at the computer room.
When we got to the corridor outside the computer lab, the door to the computer room was still locked.
Ye Meiling patted her chest, relieved, and said, "Weiwei, we're the first ones. Looks like we can enjoy the computer all to ourselves. But it seems we've come too early; the teacher hasn't opened the door yet."
Can't it be earlier?
Before the wake-up bell rang, the two girls were already ready and waiting anxiously for their aunt to open the door in front of the iron gate on the stairs.
After the aunt opened the door, the two of them were the first to rush in.
Who could possibly beat them both?
The two leaned against the wall, panting. Once they had caught their breath, Mr. Bi, the computer teacher, sipped his ice cream and carried a book, leisurely made his way to the classroom.
Seeing two students already waiting at the door, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and went forward to open the door with his key.
"You two arrived even earlier than I, the teacher."
Ye Meiling chuckled, "Teacher, it's because we all want to have a computer to ourselves."
Shen Xuewei didn't speak, but her eyes flickered as she looked at the bunch of keys in Teacher Bi's hand.
The classroom door opened, and Ye Meiling rushed in first, grabbing a computer.
Shen Xuewei followed behind her, sat down at the computer next to her, and skillfully pressed the power button.
Ye Meiling stared at the computer screen, already immersed in the joy of soon being able to play on the computer.
"Weiwei, how about we chat on QQ later? And I also want to play some games. This time, I'm not playing cards; I got tired of them last semester. I want to play something different..."
Shen Xuewei casually agreed, but her eyes still followed the bunch of keys that Teacher Bi had placed next to the computer on the podium.
Teacher Bi was throwing away trash in front of the trash can, completely unaware of Shen Xuewei's burning gaze.
He threw away the trash, and when he turned around, Shen Xuewei had already composed herself.
Seeing that Teacher Bi was sitting behind the podium, she finally decided to go up and start a conversation.
She left her things on the stool to reserve a spot, and unable to contain her excitement, she walked towards Teacher Bi on the podium.
"Teacher Bi."
When Teacher Bi heard Shen Xuewei call him, he quickly swallowed the ice cream he was holding in his mouth and asked, "Shen Xuewei, what's wrong?"
Shen Xuewei asked softly, "Teacher, which class do you want to ask to help you clean this computer room?"
Teacher Bi took another bite of her ice cream and casually said, "I haven't looked yet. I took the day off this morning and haven't taught any classes. I'll see which class is willing to take some time to come and clean every day..."
Last year, he arranged for one or two students from a junior high class to help him clean the classroom every day.
However, the students in that class have graduated, and now they have to find new jobs.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xuewei was overjoyed.
She had recommended herself to Teacher Bi last year, but Teacher Bi had already found another class, so she missed the opportunity.
Isn't this the perfect opportunity?
"Teacher Bi, why don't you arrange for me to help you clean?"
Teacher Bi looked at her hesitantly, "Just you? The computer room needs to be cleaned before morning reading. You have good grades and need to spend time studying, so you might not be able to manage."
Shen Xuewei nodded quickly and said, "No, Teacher Bi, I can do it."
Seeing Teacher Bi's hesitant expression, she feigned a somber look and added:
"I mainly came here to find some peace and quiet. You don't know, my deskmate is not good at studying and doesn't want me to study. He always disturbs my studies, and the homeroom teacher doesn't care about him."
"I can't study well in the classroom, and the dormitory is noisy. I can stay here in peace and quiet... Teacher Bi, please say yes."
With a look of sympathy in his eyes, Teacher Bi finally agreed to her request.
"Okay, I'll give you the key. Remember to come and clean in the morning. Just make sure it's not too dirty and take out the trash promptly. Remember to lock the door when you leave."
Shen Xuewei's cheeks flushed slightly with excitement, and she nodded emphatically.
"Yes, Teacher Bi, don't worry,"
Since someone offered to clean the classroom, Teacher Bi was too lazy to look for anyone else.
He took out a bunch of keys hanging from his waist, untied one of them, and handed it to Shen Xuewei under her burning gaze.
"Here, keep it safe, don't lose it."
There are three keys to the computer lab; one key is kept in the office, and the other two are with him.
If it gets lost, he can get another one made, but he didn't want the hassle, so he gave the instructions in advance.
"Okay, teacher."
Shen Xuewei responded crisply, unable to suppress the smile on her lips.
She took the key, gripped it tightly in her hand, and returned to the computer desk she had been occupying.
Ye Meiling was looking at the computer, playing a match-3 game, when she noticed Shen Xuewei returning after talking to the teacher for so long, and asked:
"Weiwei, what did you say to the teacher?"
Shen Xuewei shook her head, "It's nothing, I just asked him how to type faster on the computer."
"oh."
Ye Meiling wasn't interested in typing speed or anything like that, so after listening, she continued to focus her attention on the computer.
Students arrived one after another for computer class, until all the computers were occupied.
As the last student entered, Teacher Bi closed the door and began the lesson.
The session only lasted about ten minutes, and no one heard what it was about; everyone was just doing their own thing.
Teacher Bi was used to it; as long as everyone didn't fight or argue here, he was fine with whatever they did.
His computer class wasn't a main subject, and there were no exams. It was only once a week, just a way for students to relax during computer class.
Happy times always seem to fly by; the forty-minute computer class passed in a flash.
After the bell rang, Teacher Bi urged everyone to leave.
After leaving the computer lab, some students ran to the convenience store to buy snacks, while most returned to the classroom.
After being taught a lesson by Zheng Feng and his group, Lu Yougui finally learned his lesson during the afternoon class.
He didn't disturb Shen Xuewei's studies, nor did he kick her chair again, and the other two boys didn't dare to come any closer.
From then on, he never spoke a word to Shen Xuewei again.
This is exactly the effect Shen Xuewei wanted; ignoring everyone else is the best outcome.
Since Shen Xuewei took on the task of cleaning the computer lab, she has had the opportunity to spend about an hour and a half in the computer lab every day.
Although she only had an hour and a half, it allowed her to write five to seven thousand words a day, which was much more efficient than before, and she even saved money on going to internet cafes.
During the first week of the new semester, I only stayed at school for three days before it was Friday and time to leave.
For the first time, Shen Xuewei felt reluctant to leave school and return home.
She and Wu Yuhong took a car back to Xiaoli Village and went home separately.
The Chen family wants to build a new house and has already chosen a plot of land, which is closer to the road.
Shen Xuewei remembers that from some year onwards, farmland could no longer be used as residential land for building houses.
However, at this time, the controls are probably not yet strict.
In short, after the application was submitted, all the necessary approvals and procedures have been completed.
She stood in front of the drying ground, looking at the land in the distance.
There are already a lot of materials piled up on top, such as wood, bamboo, bricks, and steel bars.
Grandpa Chen has already set a date; he has chosen September 6th to start construction on the house.
When Shen Xuewei returned home, she found that many things had been added to the house, mostly food.
There was a significant increase in the amount of rice, flour, and cooking oil; it must have been bought by my maternal grandparents from other places or from the market.
When you hire someone to build a house, you have to be responsible for the workers' food and drink, so you have to prepare all these things.
During dinner, Grandma Xi put a piece of green vegetable on Shen Xuewei's plate.
“Weiwei, our family will start building a house in a few days. During this time, when you come back on weekends, stay at your second aunt’s house for the time being. The bed in your and your great-grandmother’s room will be made available for the construction workers.”
"Their home is quite far away, so they won't be going back. They'll probably be staying with us for a while. You can come back and stay when the house is finished."
