Chapter 170
The girls in the dormitory seemed to be very polite. When they saw Jian Feng and Wang Mengmei, they called them uncle and aunt.
Wang Mengmei was originally worried about whether her daughter would be able to adapt to the capital. After all, it is a big city, and if others look down on her family, it would be difficult for her daughter. So she dressed up today and put on the gold jewelry that she rarely wears.
Jian Li thought she was worrying too much: "Although education has nothing to do with quality, the probability of meeting a fool is still very small."
They are all studious people, really great people. It would be fine if she just hides from them.
Now that she saw the person, Wang Mengmei felt relieved.
She enthusiastically invited her two roommates to eat: "We brought these from home."
Wang Mengmei grilled several large bags of beef jerky in advance for her daughter's arrival. Jian Feng had partnered with someone this year to get some beef and mutton, and after getting to know the farmers, Wang Mengmei's shop could naturally find out which farmer had the best beef.
Marinate the beef and grill it, then brush it with honey and sesame seeds.
Wang Mengmei not only made beef jerky, but also made a lot of pork jerky.
The snacks were packed in clean glass bottles, and both roommates took a piece to taste.
As the saying goes, the more you eat someone's mouth, the more you will be touched. One of the girls with short hair took the initiative to tell Jian Li, "There is a problem with the fan in our room. The dormitory manager just said that every dormitory should report the problem as soon as possible."
Jian Li thanked the other party, saying that her cabinet was indeed a bit loose.
Jian Li and Wang Mengmei were talking to their classmates downstairs, so Jian Feng climbed onto the bed to make the bed for his daughter.
The girl with short hair was stunned by what she saw.
After some conversation, Jian Li also knew who the other party was.
The first two people who arrived at the dormitory were the girl with short hair named Feng Baobao and the girl with long hair named Gu Hong.
There was another Chen Lan and Jian Li looked at each other's empty bed curiously.
"She didn't come?"
If she didn't come, why is her name on the registration list?
Feng Baobao shrugged: "I arrived yesterday morning, and her name is already on it."
Therefore, Chen Lanyu should be the first one to report among them.
I just don't know why I didn't see anyone.
Feng Baobao is a local. She has short hair and broad facial features. At first glance, she doesn't look delicate enough, but upon closer inspection, she is generous and neat. She said that her parents work locally, one is a technician in a factory, and the other works in a school.
Gu Hong doesn't talk much, but she looks like a shy girl. However, such a shy girl turned out to be from the three northeastern provinces when asked.
When talking about the three northeastern provinces, Jian Feng's tone became enthusiastic.
After staying in the dormitory until almost noon, Jian Feng and Wang Mengmei planned to leave.
Jian Li reluctantly hugged Wang Mengmei's arm and said, "No, we have a meeting tonight. You should stay a little longer. Let's go to the cafeteria. People say that the cafeteria at Peking University is the best."
Wang Mengmei softened her heart after being persuaded and followed Jian Li to the nearest cafeteria.
There are five or six cafeterias throughout Peking University.
At the beginning of the school year, there were freshmen like Jian Li who brought their parents to the cafeteria to eat. Jian Li ordered a set meal for her parents and one for herself.
Wang Mengmei saw that it looked good and took a bite: "Your school cafeteria is not bad."
Of course, it's not as good as what we make at home, but as a canteen, it's pretty good in every way.
After the meal, it was time to say goodbye.
Wang Mengmei had tears in her eyes as she straightened Jian Li's clothes.
"Your father and I will drive away tomorrow morning. If you need anything, just buy it yourself. Don't be afraid to spend money."
Jian Feng also felt a little uncomfortable.
When Jian Li was admitted to university, one or two people around her gloated over her misfortune, saying that he was stupid to send his daughter to university.
"If their only daughter doesn't stay with them to be filial to them, and settles down somewhere else, what will happen to them in the future?"
One of them even said in a pointed way that one of his relatives had rescinded his daughter's admission and he went to the school to make a big fuss about it, just begging his daughter not to go away and to stay by his side.
Now, her daughter is a nurse in a local hospital. She can earn a lot of money. She can rely on her parents when they get old.
After listening to what the man said, Jian Feng ignored him.
My daughter has a bright future ahead of her. How can I, as an old man, be so selfish?
But... I really can't bear to do it.
After spending most of the day clinging to her parents, Jian Li's eyes were red, and she finally saw her parents off.
Watching the car go away, she cheered herself up.
A new journey is about to begin!
*****
Gu Hong and Feng Baobao are both in the dormitory and haven't gone out.
Gu Hong felt that there were too many people outside, and she found it difficult to breathe when she was in a crowded place.
Baobao Feng said, “I’ve been coming to this place since I was a kid!”
My parents took me to elementary school once a year, and every time I went there I would swear under the plaque that I would work hard to get into this school.
Feng Baobao complained: "Now it's good, I don't find this place new at all."
Jian Li lay on the bed made by Jian Feng: "I am different. The last time my parents brought me here for a trip, I didn't take any photos."
Wang Mengmei wanted to take a photo, but she refused, saying that she must wait until she passed the exam to take her first photo.
I had new roommates and a new environment. None of the young people had any particularly strange personalities, so we got along very well.
"By the way, do you two know any classmates in Beijing? If not, you can go to a hometown association."
Jian Li thought about it and realized that she actually knew quite a few people.
Cheng Yu, Wang Yunyun, Kong Fei...
"I'm asking about your school!"
Jian Li shook her head: "I don't know why most of our students applied to the school opposite this year."
National Tsing Hua University is just across the street.
Before leaving, Jian Li asked a lot of people. There were a few people from No. 1 Middle School, but as for the provincial experimental school, there was no one except her.
Several students in the liberal arts major who originally wanted to apply to Peking University later changed their minds and applied to the top majors of other universities.
There is no other way. Sometimes the score difference is just a little bit and you can only choose to keep the major or keep the school.
Feng Baobao was obviously very familiar with many things about the university. Hearing this, he enthusiastically explained to Jian Li and Gu Hong: "If you two join the hometown association, you must be careful. The hometown association is the place where you can easily fall in love with each other."
We all came from the same place, so the more time we spent together, the more inevitable it was that we would be together.
Jian Like understood it very well. In her previous life, when she moved to a new environment, she was also dragged into the hometown association to participate in several activities, but later she found it boring and stopped participating.
But in the second year after graduation, I received text messages from several seniors from my hometown association or classmates, who proposed to me right away.
It is like treating the hometown association as a great opportunity of the century.
The three of them spent the afternoon until six o'clock, but still hadn't seen Chen Lanyu.
In the end, the three of them went to the class meeting together.
The class met the counselor and the head teacher at the meeting. The counselor was a young girl in her twenties named Luo Ying.
Luo Ying: "Military training will start the day after tomorrow. I hope everyone can persevere. In the next four years, I hope everyone can take their studies seriously and study hard. The past is the past. Those who sit here are all outstanding people. Because excellence requires a mentality of returning to zero. If you rely on your past achievements, you will be eliminated sooner or later..."
Although Luo Ying was smiling, her words were harsh.
After saying all of the above, she also mentioned many examples of "predecessors" for the purpose of giving examples.
"Many students drop out of our school every year. Two years ago, there was a student who became addicted to gambling since his freshman year. He was finally persuaded to drop out by the school in his sophomore year."
"There are also students who, because they can't keep up with their studies, develop an escapist mentality. They pack their bags and go to Tibet without telling anyone."
"Last year, the Mathematics School even persuaded a student to drop out because he didn't take a shower and didn't attend classes."
…
The shocking example shocked the students in the classroom.
How...how come there are still people like this!
Didn't you suffer enough during the past three years of high school? How could you not cherish it?
Luo Ying saw their doubts and answered, "In the past, you thought you were geniuses, but here, there are too many geniuses. If you can't continue to study, it's normal to be left behind by other geniuses. But I have never thought there is any benefit in advocating genius. Down-to-earth efforts are the destination of all of us..."
After Luo Ying finished speaking, she also explained some precautions during the military training.
The head teacher also talked about some arrangements for later classes.
This class meeting reached its climax.
"Next, we need to select temporary class leaders."
It is said to be temporary, but in fact, as long as there are no major mistakes later, this temporary situation will become long-term.
"The main decisions are made by the following people: monitor, deputy monitor, league secretary, sports committee member..."
Jian Li was not very interested in this, but Feng Baobao was eager to try it.
Finally, students who are interested in becoming class leaders can stand up and introduce themselves.
It was Feng Baobao's turn. She stood up quickly and spoke out her opinion very quickly: "I have been the monitor since elementary school. I really like organizing and coordinating work, and I hope everyone will give me a chance."
In the end, Feng Baobao became the deputy monitor.
The position of class monitor fell into the hands of another stronger girl.
There are 46 people in a class, all girls and only seven boys.
It's definitely a case of more yin than yang.
Baobao Feng was appointed as the deputy monitor and was not very happy.
Jian Li comforted her: "It's okay, I will vote for you as the dormitory head later."
Gu Hong also nodded frantically: "I vote for you too."
Feng Baobao looked at the two of them weakly and said nothing.
Although he didn't say it, his eyes made it clear.
The look in Feng Baobao's eyes is the same as the look a squid gives to a salted fish.
Among the four people in this dormitory, Gu Hong is obviously a socially anxious person. Although Jian Li is not a socially anxious person, she is... very lazy.
When Feng Baobao just went out, he watched Jian Li fold the quilt like that, and then said proudly that this was a special quilt her mother made for her, saying that this kind of quilt is not only warm, but also easy to fold into a tofu block during military training.
Feng Baobao: ...
As for Chen Lanyu, who has not shown up yet and even missed the first class meeting.
Feng Baobao didn't even have a good word to say.
It's inappropriate for this dorm head to lead such a group of roommates!
