Chapter 490 High school starts, Xiao Dong'er lives in the school

Nanning.

Wuyue Square luxury residence.

Qin Fengzhen held her little grandson with a smile on her face. Although her daughter wanted a little cotton-padded jacket before the child was born, because there are more boys than girls in the Deng family now, a girl would most likely be valued more than a boy.

However, no matter what era it is, which parent would be unhappy if their first child was a son? Those who are unhappy with having a son in later generations are definitely not the first child, but they want a daughter very much after having one or two sons.

Or maybe they are a minority group that respects women.

For example, among a certain ethnic minority in Guilin, Guangxi, their custom is to respect women. If a daughter is born, she can marry a son-in-law and inherit the family property, while if a son is born, the son has to marry into another family. This is completely opposite to the mainstream marriage customs.

In this situation, naturally every family wants to have a daughter rather than a son.

Now, her daughter has lived up to her expectations and gave birth to a big fat son as her first child. For the older generation like Qin Fengzhen, it is a great joy.

After coaxing the child to sleep, Qin Fengzhen said to her daughter, "Yuemei, you don't have to worry about the child from now on. Mom promises to take good care of you. Your task is to take good care of your body during the confinement period, and then get in shape through a reasonable diet and moderate exercise after the confinement period. This is your greatest asset. You can't let your body get out of shape because of giving birth, understand?"

Fan Yuemei examined herself. She had a very good figure before she got pregnant, which was something she was always proud of. Now, after being pregnant and having a child, her figure is no longer the same as before. She is also very concerned about it. She nodded and said, "Mom, I understand. Now that the baby is born, I will start to control my diet. After the month is over, I will do moderate exercise and I must get my figure back as soon as possible."

Qin Fengzhen shook her head and said, "You can't control your diet now. You just gave birth to a child and your vitality is severely damaged. You should eat more of the ginger and wine chicken that your father-in-law stewed for you and try to replenish the damaged vitality first.

Also, during the confinement period, don’t be willful and listen to us in everything, so as not to get postpartum diseases, and it will be too late to regret it then.”

Fan Yuemei naturally knew that her mother was doing this for her own good, and that it was better to believe in the taboos of confinement passed down from generation to generation. Thinking of this, she nodded again and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Just as the mother and daughter were talking, Deng Shirong's voice came over: "Mother-in-law, Yuemei, come out for dinner."

“Here it comes!”

…

In later generations of Nanning, the most famous high schools are undoubtedly Nanning No. 2 High School and Nanning No. 3 High School. These two high schools with a long history have supplied a large number of talents to top domestic universities such as Tsinghua University and Peking University. They are also the schools with the most top scorers in the college entrance examination in Guangxi.

Nanning No. 2 Middle School and Nanning No. 3 Middle School have been moving forward in parallel for decades, and neither has the strength to truly surpass the other in all aspects.

In later generations, Nanning No. 3 Middle School ranked first in the number of students admitted to first-tier universities, and Nanning No. 2 Middle School was not bad either. Although the number of students admitted to first-tier universities was not as many as that of No. 3 Middle School, its rate of admission to first-tier universities was undoubtedly the highest.

Xiao Dong'er's high school entrance examination score was the highest in the city, so naturally she could choose between these two key high schools.

In the end, after some research, Xiaodong'er chose Nanning No. 3 Middle School.

At that time, Deng Shirong asked her, "Xiao Dong'er, why did you choose No. 3 Middle School instead of No. 2 Middle School?"

Xiao Dong'er smiled and replied, "The reason why I chose No. 3 Middle School is very simple. Next year will be the 100th anniversary of No. 3 Middle School. The school will definitely celebrate it. I think it's very interesting to be a participant and witness of this century-old school."

So, the school that Xiaodong'er would attend was decided.

Before school started, Deng Shirong was undecided whether to let Xiaodong'er live in the school dormitory.

Finally, I chose to ask her: "Xiao Dong'er, if you go to No. 3 Middle School, do you want to eat and live in school, or go home to eat and live like in junior high school?"

Xiao Dong'er hesitated for a moment before answering, "Grandpa, why don't I stay at school? No. 3 Middle School is quite far from home, and it takes a long time to go back and forth. It would be troublesome for you to come and pick me up."

Deng Shirong said, "It's not a problem to pick you up. If we don't have time, we can send security personnel to pick you up. The main thing is that it will take so much time to go back and forth every day, which may affect your studies. Also, you have never lived in a school, living in the same dormitory with more than ten or twenty female classmates, and the public toilets in the school are not clean, far from being comparable to those at home. I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

Xiao Dong'er couldn't help but frown when she heard that. She had lived a wealthy life since she was a child. The food and accommodation she had were better than 99.999% of the people in the country could afford. Even when she went back to her hometown during holidays, the living conditions were not bad.

Therefore, she really couldn't imagine how uncomfortable it would be for a dozen or even more people to sleep in one dormitory.

The most horrifying thing was that the toilets in the school were not clean. During the two years she was in junior high school, the thing she hated most in school was going to the toilet.

The main thing is that I can see those disgusting things, and it makes me feel sick just thinking about them.

(The author was in a junior high school in a town. The toilets there were terrible. Most people couldn’t stand it. During the three years of junior high school, the author never used the school toilets unless he had a stomachache. He would wait until school was over to sneak out to the wild mountains and hills outside the school to do some fertilization^_^)

Fortunately, whether she was in elementary school or junior high school, she ate and lived at home, and basically went to the toilet at home. She only went to the toilet occasionally at school when she couldn't hold it anymore. As long as it was not too urgent, she would choose to go home before going to the toilet.

However, if she chooses to eat and live in school during high school, then the living conditions and toilets are things she must overcome.

Seeing that his granddaughter was also a little undecided, Deng Shirong thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Dong'er, let's not rush to make a decision for now. After I go to school to register, I will talk to the school leaders about this matter to see if we can solve the problem of food, accommodation and toilet in school.

If you can solve it, then try living on campus. If you can't solve it, even if it's a little troublesome, go back home to eat and live, so as not to suffer in school."

Xiao Dong'er stopped worrying after hearing this and nodded, "Okay then!"

…

Today is the day for school registration. After breakfast, Deng Shirong took his granddaughter to Nanning No. 3 Middle School.

When the grandparents and grandchildren arrived at the school, they found that it was already crowded with people.

Deng Shirong is not a rigid person. He certainly knows how to make use of his connections. Because he had made calls in advance, the grandparents and grandchildren were invited into the principal's office as soon as they arrived at the school.

After greeting each other, the principal looked at Xiao Dong'er with a smile on his face and said sincerely: "Student Deng Changli, thank you for choosing our Nanning No. 3 Middle School. On behalf of the No. 3 Middle School, I welcome you."

Originally, Deng Changli, the student who ranked first in the city's high school entrance examination, was enough to attract the principal's attention, not to mention that this student also had a strong background. His grandfather was the chairman of Deng Group, the number one private enterprise in the country. Such an identity was certainly worthy of the principal's attention.

Xiao Dong'er responded in a sweet voice: "Thank you, Principal. I feel very honored to have the opportunity to study at No. 3 Middle School, a century-old school. I will continue to study hard and hope to win glory for the school in the college entrance examination."

Upon hearing this, the principal naturally applauded again. Although their school had no shortage of top students who ranked first in the city's high school entrance examination, the quality of this top student was different from those in the past, because she skipped a grade to take the high school entrance examination, and could be said to be a true top student.

As long as she can maintain her current performance in the next three years, getting into prestigious universities like Tsinghua University and Peking University will be a piece of cake.

Which principal could refuse such an honor that came to his door? After both sides exchanged pleasantries, Deng Shirong finally said, "Principal, I came to you this time to talk to you about my granddaughter's boarding at school."

The principal was moved and asked, "Mr. Deng, what are your requirements for Deng Changli's accommodation?"

Deng Shirong said: "Principal, to be honest with you, my granddaughter has never suffered from hardship since she was a child. When she was in junior high school, she did not live in the school dormitory, but chose to go home to eat and live. I am worried that she will not be able to adapt to the school's accommodation conditions, which will affect her studies.

So, I would like to ask the principal if there are any vacant teacher dormitories in the school?"

In schools of this era, accommodation conditions are extremely tight for both teachers and students. How could there be vacant teachers' dormitories?

However, since Deng Shirong has already said this, the principal will definitely help solve the accommodation problem.

The principal thought for a moment and then thought of a solution. He said, "Mr. Deng, there are currently no empty teacher dormitories in the school, but there is an office that is not often used. It has a private bathroom and a balcony for drying clothes. I will have someone prepare a bed and turn this office into a dormitory for student Deng Changli to live in. Mr. Deng, do you think it's okay?"

Deng Shirong said with satisfaction: "Of course, thank you, Principal!"

The principal smiled and said, "Mr. Deng, you're welcome. Deng Changli scored first in the city's high school entrance exam and is our school's most valued top student. Solving her worries about life and allowing her to devote herself to her studies is what our school should do."

Deng Shirong returned the favor and said, "Principal, I heard that next year is the 100th anniversary of No. 3 Middle School. Over the past 100 years, the school has trained a large number of talents and made indelible contributions to the establishment and development of the country.

On behalf of the Deng Group, I donated a teacher dormitory building to the school to improve the teachers' living conditions, so that they can focus on teaching, cultivate more pillars of the country, and contribute to the development of the motherland."

The principal did not expect such a pleasant surprise. His previous politeness was only due to the other party's status and his importance to Deng Changli, a top student. Now the other party wanted to donate a teacher's dormitory building to the school. Although a teacher's dormitory building can be big or small, tall or short, even if it is just on par with the existing teacher's dormitory building, it would cost millions of dollars.

This unexpected surprise is really joyful.

At this moment, the principal looked at Deng Changli with eyes full of love. This is truly a good student that is rarely seen in a century!

Next, when it came time to register for admission, Deng Shirong didn’t even have to queue up; the principal would just have someone do it for him in the office.

After everything was settled, the principal said to Xiao Dong'er with a smile on his face: "Student Deng Changli, if you need anything else in this dormitory, just tell me and I'll have someone get it done for you."

Deng Changli shook her head and said, "Thank you, Principal. I don't need anything. I just need a bed to sleep on and a table to study. That's all."

Deng Shirong interrupted, "Principal, I would like to make two requests."

The principal said, "Please speak, Mr. Deng."

Deng Shirong said: "The first request is that the school can install water heaters in the bathrooms. Otherwise, you have to take a bucket to other places to fetch hot water for a shower, which is not only time-consuming but also inconvenient."

The principal nodded and said, "Mr. Deng is right. This water heater must be installed."

Deng Shirong continued, "My second request is that the school install an air conditioner for my granddaughter. In addition to the water heater I just mentioned, all the costs of purchasing and using it will be borne by ourselves, and we will not take advantage of the school."

The principal waved his hand and said, "Mr. Deng, you are so polite. You donated a valuable teacher dormitory building to our school. It is only natural for the school to take care of your granddaughter's life. Don't mention the cost. This small expense is nothing to our school. Mr. Deng, don't worry about it."

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, Principal!"

After that, the two sides chatted for a few more words before Deng Shirong and his grandson said goodbye and left.

As for the donation of teachers' dormitory buildings, there will naturally be professional personnel to coordinate with the school, and Deng Shirong only needs to give the orders.

After watching Deng Shirong and his grandson leave, the excited principal gave orders to convert the office into a dormitory as quickly as possible, and to install water heaters and air conditioners as soon as possible, so that Deng Changli, the top student, could live comfortably.

On the other side, after Xiao Dong'er and her grandfather walked out of the school, she couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, not only did you ask the school to install a water heater for me, but you also asked them to install an air conditioner. Isn't that too high-profile?"

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "You live in a dormitory by yourself, which is already very high-profile. You don't mind being more high-profile. Otherwise, in the summer, it will definitely be uncomfortable to sleep without air conditioning."

Xiao Dong'er thought about it and felt that it made sense. After all, she had always been the focus of everyone's attention since kindergarten. In order to live a more comfortable life in high school, it was acceptable for her to be a little more high-profile.

…

Sunday, September 1, 1996.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Although classes officially start tomorrow, Monday, students will return to school this afternoon.

After having a sumptuous dinner at home, Deng Shirong personally sent his granddaughter to school.

The principal had been waiting at the school gate. When he saw Deng Shirong and his grandson arrive, he stepped forward to greet them with a smile on his face. Then, in the surprised eyes of other students, he took them to the new dormitory that the school had prepared specifically for Deng Changli.

Arriving at the door of the dormitory that was converted from an office, the principal took out a bunch of keys and handed them to Xiao Dong'er, then said to Deng Shirong, "Boss Deng, I also had the lock replaced with a new one. All the keys are here!"

Deng Shirong nodded with satisfaction when he heard this. Although nothing should happen to his granddaughter at school, his precious granddaughter was a girl after all, and a very beautiful girl at that. The safety issue could not be ignored.

Although changing a new lock may not have much effect, it proves that the principal attaches great importance to the safety of his granddaughter, which is enough.

Xiao Dong'er opened the door and found the room clean and tidy. It was obvious that someone had helped to clean the place.

The furnishings inside are very simple, with just a bunk bed, a table and a chair, an air conditioner hanging on the wall, and brand new buckets, basins, clothes hangers and the like placed in the corner at the end. The bathroom is connected to the balcony, and the gas cylinder is placed on the balcony, and a water heater is hung on the wall of the bathroom.

Deng Shirong looked him over and said with satisfaction, "Principal, I'm really sorry to trouble you!"

The principal smiled and said, "Mr. Deng, you are too polite. This is not a big deal. If Deng Changli needs anything else, just tell me and I will arrange it for you."

Xiao Dong'er smiled and said, "Thank you, Principal. I don't need anything anymore!"

"Then I won't bother you. Anyway, you can always come to me if you have any requests."

"Yes, Headmaster."

After the principal left, Xiao Dong'er packed her luggage and took out shampoo, shower gel, mirror, comb, towel, toothpaste, toothbrush, paper towels and other daily necessities and placed them one by one. Deng Shirong spread the bamboo mat he brought from home, and also took out a pillow and a thin quilt.

This bunk bed has a mosquito net, and it is obvious that it is a newly bought mosquito net, so there is no need to prepare one.

Seeing that everything was settled, Deng Shirong took out a cell phone and handed it to his granddaughter, saying, "Xiao Dong'er, this is the cell phone grandpa gave you. If you encounter any problems at school or want to eat something, just call grandpa."

Xiao Dong'er looked at this cool phone and smiled in surprise: "Thank you, Grandpa!"

Now it is 1996, and mobile phones have gradually become popular in China. When my granddaughter was in junior high school, she went home to eat and live, so naturally she didn't have a mobile phone. But now she has to live in the school dormitory, so she must be equipped with a mobile phone.

Anyway, mobile phones of this era are not as fun as those of later generations, and there is no need to worry that Xiaodong will become addicted to the phone and affect his studies.

The mobile phone that Deng Shirong gave to his granddaughter was Nokia 8110, a mobile phone that was just launched this year and has changed the way people communicate. It is also recognized as the most advanced and coolest mobile phone of this era. Its appearance is indeed beautiful, far superior to those bulky mobile phones that came before.

(Nokia 8110)

Therefore, Xiao Dong'er liked it at first sight and couldn't let it go.

Deng Shirong smiled and said, "It's ok, Grandpa will go back first. If you have any problem, just call Grandpa directly."

Xiao Dong'er nodded and said, "I understand, Grandpa."

After his grandfather left, Xiaodong fiddled with his phone for a while, learned how to operate it, and then went to evening self-study.

Today's evening self-study session is mainly for new students to get to know each other.

This was the first time meeting new classmates and everyone was very enthusiastic. When Xiaodong'er arrived at the classroom, the entire classroom was almost full, with only two empty seats in the front row.

So, Xiao Dong'er walked to the seat next to one of the female classmates and sat down.

At this time, the head teacher had not arrived yet, and some lively students in the class were talking to the new students around them.

Some shy and unsocial students sat quietly in their seats, silently looking at the new classmates they would be with for the next three years, while waiting for the arrival of the head teacher.

Xiaodong'er's arrival instantly attracted the attention of the whole class.

Xiao Dong'er is now 1.62 meters tall, her breasts are beginning to bud, and she is extremely beautiful. Coupled with her good family background and long-term top grades, she has a special temperament that is difficult to describe in words.

All these factors combined gave Xiao Dong'er an extremely unique charm, and she immediately became the focus of the entire audience.

The male classmates' eyes naturally lit up.

After all, they are all high school students. Those who started school earlier are already 15 or 16 years old, while those who started school later are even adults. Boys of this age are no longer ignorant about the opposite sex and have very strong desires.

Now, there is such a beautiful female classmate in the class. Even if nothing can happen between us, it is still pleasing to the eyes to look at her every day, isn't it? Most of the female classmates showed envious expressions, and some even had jealousy in their hearts.

Xiao Dong'er naturally felt everyone's attention. She was used to it, so she pulled out a chair and sat down calmly.

Seeing this, all the students couldn't help but whisper.

"She's really beautiful. I didn't expect there's such a beautiful girl in our class."

"Yes, it's really beautiful. We are so lucky to be assigned to this class!"

"Unfortunately, it's only temporary. When the division into arts and science is completed, we may not be assigned to the same class again."

"I've made up my mind. I'll ask her clearly later. If this girl chooses liberal arts, I'll choose liberal arts too. If she chooses science, I'll choose science too."

"Fuck, are you kidding me? Are you so careless?"

"No kidding, I feel so lucky to be able to take classes with such a beautiful female classmate!"

“…”

"Hey, that's weird, why haven't I seen her in the dormitory before?"

"Our dormitory is full. She should be in the next dormitory!"

"I've been to the next door dormitory, but I didn't see her there. Could it be because she came late?"

"She probably arrived after we came to the classroom."

"You're so late on your first day at school?"

"Who knows?"

“…”

This is a long story, but in fact it only took about ten seconds. Just when everyone was sitting together whispering with familiar classmates, Cui Deshan, the head teacher wearing a pair of myopic glasses, walked into the classroom and stood on the podium.

…

PS: Thank you all for your monthly tickets.
