Eating melons

Thinking of this, Wei Wei prepared to slip away. She didn't want to get involved in these disputes.

Without a second thought, Wei Wei said to Zhang Ting and Liu Lin, "Well, I have friends waiting for me. I'll go find them first. By the way, I won't be staying here for the next two days. I'll be staying at home and will come back once school officially starts, so there's no need to hold the door open for me."

Seeing this, Zhang Ting and Liu Lin didn't say anything, and Wei Wei ran away.

Wei Wei was about to go upstairs to find Jiang Qi when Jiang Qi and Li Zhibin came downstairs.

"Jiang Qi, here."

Seeing Wei Wei, Jiang Qi ran over immediately.

"Why did you come here so quickly? I was just about to look for you!"

Wei Wei felt a little helpless when talking about this. She briefly talked about the situation in her dormitory and her concerns about her future dormitory life.

Jiang Qi didn't know what to say about this. "Our dormitory also has twelve people, and I don't know if it's because there are fewer girls in the School of Accounting, but our dormitory is mixed.

But I haven’t seen anyone with children yet, and we’re professionals, and our families generally seem to be in decent financial circumstances, so I don’t know if we’ll run into the same situation you’re in.”

The two were chatting when Li Zhibin came over. Li Zhibin was a little curious when he saw that Wei Wei was the only one there.

"Where's Lao Xiao? Are you alone?"

This doesn't seem like Xiao Xuemu's style at all.

"He went to the dormitory. He probably hasn't finished yet. He said he'd come find us later."

"It's boring waiting here. Let's go find him directly. I know where their dormitory is."

Li Zhibin knew the way, and Wei Wei didn't object. It would be boring to just wait here.

A few people were about to go to Xiao Xuemu's side when they saw Xiao Xuemu rushing towards them on the road.

Seeing Wei Wei, Xiao Xuemu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't you get acquainted with your new roommates? Why did you come here so soon?"

Wei Wei touched her nose and said, "I'm afraid they'll start fighting."

Xiao Xuemu was a little confused. "What's wrong? Is there someone here? Don't you love watching shows?"

Wei Wei had something to say about this, "I can watch the show, but I can't get involved. I'll go back after they're done arguing. Someone will tell me what happened anyway."

After hearing this, Xiao Xuemu fell silent. Well, this is Wei Wei's style.

I'll watch the fun, but I won't get involved.

Xiao Xuemu took Wei Wei by the hand and said, "Come on, I'll show you the school cafeteria. You have to come to school to pick up your books tomorrow. Then I'll take you to your teaching building. There are too many people reporting in today."

The four of them were extremely relaxed, but 302 was in an uproar.

Wei Wei thought Wu Li and Li Xiaoling would have a quarrel, but they were both concerned about their own territory and there was no quarrel at all, but there was no communication either.

Zhang Ting and Liu Lin were really not used to this quiet atmosphere. It was so different from the atmosphere when Wei Wei came before. Seeing that it was already noon, the two of them decided to have lunch before coming back.

After coming back from dinner, they heard a quarrel coming from 302 in the corridor. Liu Lin and Zhang Ting looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.

The door of dormitory 302 was ajar. As soon as I opened it, I heard an argument coming from inside.

"What's wrong with you, kid? You stepped on the sheets I just changed and they got them dirty!"

The person who spoke was a girl wearing a Dacron shirt and with curly hair, which was fashionable at the time. Her eyes and eyebrows had the sharpness that was unique to girls from Beijing, but her tone was full of impatience.

Because there was only an upper bunk, the little girl naturally lived in the upper bunk. The bed was already made and looked very clean and tidy. Moreover, it looked very pleasing to the eye next to Wei Wei's bed.

On the bed next to hers, which was the upper bunk near the door, stood a little boy of four or five years old and a little girl with pigtails, looking timidly at a woman in a patched cotton jacket under the bed.

The woman was about thirty years old, with a sun-tanned face and an old canvas bag on her hand, from which a milk bottle appeared.

She quickly apologized with a smile, "I'm sorry, Comrade Manli, this child just came from the countryside and has never seen such clean sheets. I'll wipe it for you right away-"

"What are you wiping? This is the Dacron my mother asked someone to bring from Shanghai. Can you afford to pay for it if it gets damaged?"

Li Manli put her hands on her hips, her eyes swept over the canvas bag in the woman's hand, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

"Comrade Wang Guilan, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're taking the college entrance exam while raising two children. It's so inconvenient to live in a dormitory. Don't let it affect those of us who are studying seriously."

Wang Guilan's face turned red instantly, her lips moved but no words came out.

She was an educated youth who had been sent to the countryside for ten years, and her husband died in an accident last year.

She managed to finish her high school textbooks with her two children, and it was really not easy for her to get into Peking University.

She had anticipated the difficulties of sleeping with a child, but she hadn't expected to be so hurt on the first day.

"Dacron is quite valuable, but the child didn't do it on purpose. I have an old rag here. Dip it in some warm water and wipe it. It won't be a problem."

As Li Xiaoling spoke, she took out a piece of soft coarse cloth from her canvas bag, handed it to Wang Guilan, and touched the little boy's head.

"Little friends, my bed is downstairs. If you want to play, come down and play with my little brother, okay?"

In fact, Li Xiaoling was not going to say anything at first, but Li Manli's words that it was not proper to bring children to the dormitory to study made her angry.

Why is it inappropriate to bring children to the dormitory?

And as soon as she saw Wang Guilan, she knew that the conditions were very difficult. She was studying alone with two children. As a fellow educated youth and a mother, Li Xiaoling also understood her difficulties.

The little boy and girl blinked their big eyes and nodded, and Wang Guilan quickly picked up the two children.

Li Manli glanced at Li Xiaoling and saw that she was wearing patched khaki and did not look like someone from a prominent family, so her tone became even more aggressive.

"Who are you? Why should you meddle in other people's business?"

"My name is Li Xiaoling. I'm from the Chinese department and live in this dormitory."

Li Xiaoling didn't respond to her, but turned to Wang Guilan.

"Comrade Wang, your bed is next to the window. It has good lighting and is bright for reading, but it's not convenient for you to bring your child with you to the upper bunk. We can switch beds. I don't mind."

Wang Guilan was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved her hands, "No, no, this is embarrassing, you're bringing a child with you."

"It's okay, my parents-in-law are also in Beijing, and they are looking at houses these two days.

They will take the child to stay in the guesthouse at night, and he will not stay in the dormitory."

As Li Xiaoling spoke, she began to move the bedding. Zhang Ting and Liu Lin, who were standing at the door, looked at each other. They found this scene strange no matter how they looked at it. They were afraid that this dormitory would never be peaceful again.

And as far as they know, the school will not allow children to live in the dormitory.

They may understand if you stay for a day or two, but the school will definitely not agree if you live in the dormitory for a long time, and there will definitely be trouble.

Moreover, they were a little overwhelmed to have two such young children living in the dormitory. They were there to study, not to take care of children.

No matter how well-behaved a child is, crying is inevitable, and they cannot accept this.

There is also Li Xiaoling. Although she looks very enthusiastic, for some reason, she looks weird no matter how you look at her, but you can't tell what's weird about her.

Wang Guilan was not in a much better condition, but they didn't know what was wrong.
