As soon as Wang Lingling saw her, she said, “Someone came to my dorm. She looks kind of pitiful. It’s the dead of winter, and her coat is all tattered. She looks so cold.”
“There are so many pitiful people in this world. Don’t be too kind. Check their character first.” Li Mengxue was afraid that she would be confused again, like before.
“I understand, don’t worry! I just chatted with her casually and exchanged names.” Wang Lingling said.
She had written down Li Mengxue’s dormitory survival rules in a little notebook and even memorized them. ‘Always be wary of others’ was written as the first rule.
Outside the dormitory building, Guan Nanzhen, who had just rolled out her quilt to dry in the sun, saw them and asked, “Are you used to sleeping here?”
Yi Qingqing shook her head: “I’ve been sleeping on the kang for a few years, so I’m used to it. It’s a little cold when I first get into bed, but it should be fine after I buy a hot water bottle.”
“Why do you need a hot water bottle? A saline bottle is just right. If you don’t want to get burned, you can sew a cloth bag. It will keep you warm! My sister-in-law works in the hospital. If you want, I can get you a few. It’s not a big deal!” Guan Nanzhen said enthusiastically.
“Then I won’t be polite with you, Auntie. We really need it.” Yi Qingqing did not refuse.
But Aunt Guan had done her a favor, so she’d bring her some snacks later.
When Yi Qingqing and the others arrived at the fork in the road in front of the grove, Yun Guyuan and the others had not arrived yet, so they waited there for a while.
There were obviously a little more people in school today than yesterday. After standing there for a while, they met several people carrying big and small bags and heading to the dormitory.
The students ranged in age quite widely, from teenagers and young adults in their twenties to those in their thirties and forties, and some even had children with them.
After waiting for a while, Yun Guyuan and the others still hadn’t arrived when Song Hemei and her parents came out.
Yi Qingqing greeted her: “Have you packed?”
“Well, what are you doing?” Song Hemei looked at her curiously.
Are these the friends who came to the capital with her? So many?
“We are waiting for our friends. Look, they are here.” Yi Qingqing said.
Song Hemei couldn’t hide the shock in her eyes: “You have so many friends!”
Yi Qingqing nodded with a smile: “I can’t talk to you anymore, I really need to go eat now. If I go too late, I’m afraid the meat buns will be gone!”
Song Hemei watched the seven of them run toward the cafeteria.
“Do these girls get along so well with their male classmates? Are they dating?” Song’s mother gossiped.
“Meimei, you must study hard in school and don’t hang out with the boys!” Song’s father reminded her as he remembered something.
Song Hemei: “…”
Yi Qingqing and the others ran to the cafeteria. When the cafeteria aunt saw them, she called them over quickly: “We still have egg soup, but the meat buns are sold out.”
“Ah?” The four girls sighed in disappointment.
“Look what this is?” The cafeteria auntie smiled and opened a steamer basket.
“I saved this especially for you!”
“Auntie, you’re so kind! I love you so much!”
The girls, who were craving meat buns, were overjoyed, showering the cafeteria aunt with compliments.
Yesterday, while taking a bath, they heard the aunts say that the school cafeteria’s meat buns were amazing.
The cafeteria aunt was so embarrassed by the praise: “Okay, okay, go eat quickly!”
Fourteen buns, two per person.
“When did you become so familiar with the cafeteria aunt? She even saved buns for you, and some for us too!”
After they sat down, Chen Zhihe asked curiously.
“We’ve been to the bathhouse together, gotten massages together—it’s a friendship you can’t envy.” Yi Qingqing said.
Her words made everyone laugh.
