Because this year's New Year may be the last one that everyone gets together to celebrate, everyone ate the New Year's Eve dinner together.
Tang Baozhu also made an excuse to bring out some wine. Except for Li Feifei, who didn't drink, all the women drank a little.
At first, no one drank alcohol, but the winters here are so cold that sometimes you feel like you can't get through it without a drink. So over the years, everyone can say that they have a high alcohol tolerance.
As for the men, it goes without saying that it's just that alcohol is hard to buy, otherwise they would all be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, everyone chatted until almost 11 o'clock before parting ways.
Tang Baozhu woke up very late the next day, almost lunchtime. She didn't feel any hangover or headache, and felt that her alcohol tolerance was getting better and better.
I opened the red envelope group directly, and sure enough, the exclusive red envelope that Xu Rui sent me was there.
Without even looking, I knew it was a New Year's gift he'd sent to himself. Every year on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, I'd wake up to find a New Year's gift he'd prepared in the red envelope group.
I opened the red envelope group and saw that there were three sets of clothes, along with matching jewelry and shoes. They were all magical robes and artifacts, and even the shoes could increase speed.
Even an ordinary person can run incredibly fast wearing these shoes and transform into various forms. Although they appear in ancient costumes, they can also transform into modern attire, changing as one pleases.
Tang Baozhu thought that Brother Xu was very sensible. He had given her a lot of clothes in the warehouse, so she wouldn't need to buy clothes anymore. After all, the robes wouldn't break and could be transformed into all sorts of styles.
I can find another excuse to slack off, but I still need to learn something.
Because Li Feifei finished her postpartum confinement on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the students who were going to study in Beijing discussed it and decided to wait for her to finish her confinement before setting off. As for the students who were going to study in other places, they would probably set off on the second or third day of the Lunar New Year.
These past few days, Tang Baozhu has been tidying up the house. She put the inconspicuous items into her spatial storage, and packed the more conspicuous items, which everyone knows about, into sacks.
I have so much stuff, but I can't bear to throw this away or that away. I'll pack it all up, just in case I can still use it in the next world.
After seeing off the educated youth who were going to study in other cities, Li Feifei and her group of more than ten people prepared to set off for Beijing after Li Feifei finished her postpartum confinement.
We paid for a horse-drawn carriage to take everyone in the village. The snow hadn't melted yet, and there was a baby and a woman who had just given birth. We were worried that walking would cause them to get postpartum illnesses, and besides, we didn't need the money.
Two carriages were rented in total. One was for passengers, and the other was for storing everyone's luggage. Tang Baozhu alone had five sacks. There was no way around it; she had been here for so many years. It seemed like she didn't have much stuff, but after packing it up, she had quite a lot.
And they're all the kind that can't just disappear suddenly. Luckily there's a train, and once we get there we should be able to rent a car to take us to school, so it's not too much of a hassle.
Li Feifei's eldest son is just over two years old. He is very curious about the outside world. It's rare for him to take a train out of the house. He is very energetic and curious about everything.
As for the youngest son, he was a sleeping god, sleeping the whole way, which made things much easier for everyone.
Tang Baozhu encountered Jin Meng when she set off from the village, and stood at the village entrance watching them leave.
Everyone knew what he meant by standing there, so they all stared at Tang Baozhu. Tang Baozhu could only pretend to be oblivious, with an expression that said, "It's none of my business."
After arriving at the commune, luckily I had bought a train ticket in advance. No matter the era, train stations are always crowded places.
We boarded the bus not long after we arrived. Luckily, everyone bought their tickets together, so the seats were all lined up together. There were about a dozen people, just spaced apart in the middle and sitting in front of and behind each other.
I spent several days on the train, but it wasn't too uncomfortable. The main reason was that I knew a lot of people, so no matter what I was doing, I just had to greet the people next to me, which made it relatively easy.
We arrived in Beijing on the 14th. The school sent a car to pick us up. Since we were all from different schools, we all separated on the train.
We agreed to get together on the first Saturday of the week, and then we would go our separate ways.
Tang Baozhu arrived at the bus that was picking up new students from the Foreign Languages University. Several people were already sitting on it, including a few who were clearly parents.
They weren't very old, so they probably didn't go to the countryside. They were recent graduates who went directly to the college entrance examination, and their parents brought them to register.
After exchanging greetings, Tang Baozhu sat at the very back. There was no other way; she had the most luggage, so it was better to put it at the back to avoid blocking other people's way.
After waiting for more than two hours, the car was so crowded that it was packed with people, but we finally set off.
Looking at the five large sacks, Tang Baozhu felt she had made a mistake. She should have booked a room, left her luggage there, and picked it up after settling into her dorm. That way, she wouldn't be in such an awkward situation now.
Fortunately, there were senior students who were there to greet the new students. They were all very enthusiastic. After I registered, they helped me find my assigned dormitory and carried my luggage there before leaving.
Seeing their enthusiasm, Tang Baozhu recalled what she had heard before: senior students picking up junior students was to escape being single. Unfortunately, she could only disappoint them.
Upon arriving at the dormitory on the third floor, I was assigned to room 302. Inside, there were two beds that had already been made up, and the rest of the rooms were empty.
The bunk beds can sleep eight people in total. I looked around and there were no specific beds assigned. It seems that whoever arrives first gets to choose.
Tang Baozhu chose the upper bunk by the window. The ones by the door were too noisy because people were always coming and going and closing the door, so she didn't choose them. But the ones at the very back were better.
There was a row of cabinets in the middle near the window, and each cabinet could be locked. They were right next to the bed, so I chose the top one.
After tidying up, I put things like pots and pans into my storage space, and put toiletries and more valuable items in the cabinet. It took me more than an hour to finally make the bed.
Fortunately, no one has come over during this time, otherwise it would be difficult to put or hide the things.
I took a wire from my spatial storage and prepared to hang a curtain to block other people's view.
After hanging the curtain, he looked down to make sure no one could see up, and then nodded in satisfaction.
