Chapter 229 A new beginning
After the train arrived at the station, He Tingyuan took Han Zhuxin and asked, "Zhuxin, why don't you just stay at my house?"
He had already written a letter to his family, telling them that he and Han Zhuxin were dating. This was a good opportunity for his family to meet Han Zhuxin.
After asking, he looked at Shen Xiaoxia and Jiang Yan, "And Xia Xia and Jiang Yan, you guys are staying at my house too, right?"
Han Zhuxin shook her head and said, "No need. Xia Xia and I can just find a hotel to stay in."
Given He Tingyuan's family situation, it would be too presumptuous for her to visit them suddenly. She didn't want to leave a bad impression on the He family.
Without waiting for He Tingyuan to persuade her again, Han Zhuxin continued, "If I were alone, you might still be worried. Now Xia Xia and Jiang Yan are here, nothing will happen. You should go home first. I will come to visit you when the time is right."
Han Zhuxin had made up her mind, and He Tingyuan had no choice but to go home with Xie Yunheng.
Shen Xiaoxia, Jiang Yan and Han Zhuxin discussed it and decided to find a hotel near the school to settle down.
After taking a bus to the vicinity of the school, the three of them found a hotel and booked two rooms. Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin stayed in one, and Jiang Yan stayed in another.
After a night's rest, I reported to school the next day.
He Tingyuan drove and brought Shen Xiaoxia and the others' luggage over.
After school started, he and Xie Yunheng lived directly at home, while Shen Xiaoxia, Han Zhuxin and Jiang Yan lived in the dormitory arranged by the school.
Among them, Shen Xiaoxia is from the Chinese Department, Jiang Yan is from the Economics Department, Han Zhuxin is from the Management Department, Xie Yunheng is from the History Department, and He Tingyuan is from the Physics Department. Each person is from a different department.
Therefore, Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin's dormitories are not in the same room. Although they are in the same building, it is convenient for them to take care of each other.
Jiang Yan lives in the boys' dormitory. Although it is a bit far from the girls' dormitory, it is not particularly far.
There were eight people living in Shen Xiaoxia's dormitory. When she arrived, there were still three empty beds: one lower bunk and two upper bunks.
She chose one of the upper bunks.
The person living in the lower bunk was a chubby girl with a chubby face, very cute. When she saw Shen Xiaoxia chose the upper bunk of her bed, she took the initiative to greet her, "Hello, my name is Yan Xiaomei, a local from Beijing. Where are you from?"
Shen Xiaoxia smiled at her and said, "Hello, my name is Shen Xiaoxia, and I'm from Yi Province!"
"Hey, are you from Yi Province?" The girl from the next bed poked her head out. "Hello, my name is Shen Yi, and I'm from the province next door to you."
Shen Xiaoxia looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pretty and elegant girl looking at her with a smile.
Shen Xiaoxia nodded at her and said with a smile, "Hello!"
After some introductions, it was found that among the five people currently in the dormitory, three were from Beijing, one was from the province next to Shen Xiaoxia, and the other was from the province next to Beijing.
So far, the personalities of these girls are pretty good.
Shen Xiaoxia took the water and wiped the bed several times. After the water stains dried, she spread the quilt and put the remaining luggage in place.
Not long after I finished packing, Han Zhuxin came over and asked, "Xia Xia, are you done packing?"
"Pack up, let's go."
They made an appointment with Jiang Yan, He Tingyuan and others to go to the cafeteria for lunch together.
Seeing that everyone in Shen Xiaoxia's dormitory was looking at her, Han Zhuxin took the initiative to greet them, "Hello, my name is Han Zhuxin, and I'm Xia Xia's friend."
The girl named Shen Yi asked, "Are you from Yi Province too?"
Han Zhuxin shook her head, "No, I'm from Hunan Province."
The other girls asked, "Huh? From Hunan Province? Then how did you two know each other?"
Shen Xiaoxia took the initiative to explain, "We met when we were sent to the countryside as educated youth."
"Wow, you guys are educated youth? I can't tell...!"
"I heard that the lives of educated youth were extremely hard, and they had to do farm work every day?"
"Where did you work as an educated youth?"
"Is it really as hard as they say? Can I even get enough to eat...?"
Seeing that although everyone had a lot of questions, they obviously had no ill intentions and were just curious, Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin smiled and gave them a brief description.
After listening to it, they were still quite unsatisfied and felt that the life of the educated youth described by the two people was somewhat different from what they had heard before.
As Han Zhuxin took Shen Xiaoxia's arm and walked to the cafeteria, she sighed, "The atmosphere in your dormitory is still better. It's more comfortable to get along with each other."
"What's wrong?" Shen Xiaoxia turned her head and looked at her, "Is there a troublemaker in your dormitory?"
Han Zhuxin laughed out loud, as if she was amused by the adjective Shen Xiaoxia used. "She's not a thorn in the side, but she speaks in a sarcastic tone that makes people feel annoyed."
Shen Xiaoxia thought about it and realized that it was indeed true. "That's quite disturbing. Is it directed at you? Or is it an indiscriminate attack?"
Han Zhuxin frowned. "At the moment, I feel like this is directed at me. It started after they found out I was an educated youth. That's why I just said the atmosphere in your dormitory is quite good..."
Shen Xiaoxia snorted softly, "If we can get along, then get along. If not, just ignore it."
Han Zhuxin said "hmm", "We won't be able to live together for long."
Shen Xiaoxia looked at her and asked, "What do you mean?"
Han Zhuxin patted Shen Xiaoxia's arm and said, "I'll tell you in detail later when we have dinner. I saw them. Let's go and eat first."
Shen Xiaoxia looked towards the cafeteria and saw Jiang Yan, He Tingyuan and Xie Yunheng standing at the bottom of the cafeteria steps with their hands in their pockets, chatting.
All three of them were handsome and dignified, standing out from the crowd. People passing by couldn't help but glance at them.
Shen Xiaoxia couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't think so before, but now looking at it this way, it's quite pleasing to the eye."
Han Zhuxin couldn't help laughing, "Say this again in front of them later, they will definitely be happier."
When the two of them approached, Jiang Yan took Shen Xiaoxia's hand and felt it. Seeing that her hand was warm, he asked, "What were you two laughing at just now? You looked so happy?"
Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin looked at each other, the smiles in their eyes still not completely fading. "Nothing, just thinking about having something delicious to eat soon, I feel very happy."
Even though he knew Shen Xiaoxia was talking nonsense, Jiang Yan still said lovingly, "Then eat more later."
After getting the food ready and finding a place to sit down, Shen Xiaoxia couldn't wait to ask Han Zhuxin, "Zhuxin, can you tell me what you just said now?"
Hearing Shen Xiaoxia's question, everyone looked at Han Zhuxin. He Tingyuan was putting a chicken leg from his lunch box into Han Zhuxin's lunch box. Hearing this, he also asked, "What do you want to say?"
Han Zhuxin said, "I don't plan to live in the dormitory anymore. I want to rent a house near the school so that it will be more convenient for me to do things."
There are many people in the dormitory, and it is not convenient for others to know what she is going to do.
He Tingyuan was worried that Han Zhuxin would not be safe living outside, and was about to object, but before he could say anything, Shen Xiaoxia spoke up, "That's great, I have the same plan. Zhuxin, if you are looking for a house, can we go together?
Or how about we just find a house with a yard, like we did in the Youth Hostel, and have a room for each of us?"
