Siheyuan, a comfortable life under Zhengyang Gate

After having breakfast in the morning, they renewed their room for another day and asked the owner of the guest house about the direction of Yili Normal University. Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping took the rice dumplings and specialties brought from the imperial capital to Yili Normal University to find Ran Xiaoyi.

The owner of the guest house, Ah Shan, found someone to take the family of three to the gate of Yili Teachers College in a carriage.

"Adasi, thank you."

"We are all friends. You don't have to be so polite. Go in and find your friends. I'll wait for you outside."

"Adasi, you don't have to wait for us. You can go about your business. We will stay here for a long time before returning to the guest house."

"That's it, okay then."

"Goodbye Adasi."

"Goodbye."

Watching the elder brother who had sent them over drive the carriage away, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping walked towards the school gate with their little zongzi and their things in their arms.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk...Hello, uncle."

"Hello, are you okay?"

"Uncle, we are here to see a friend. She is a Chinese teacher at this school, her name is Ran Xiaoyi."

"You are looking for Teacher Ran. Are you friends of Teacher Ran?"

"Yes, we are Teacher Ran's college classmates."

"The school is not in session yet. Please register first. The teachers' dormitory is over there. I will take you there in a moment."

"okay."

Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping registered the visitor information in the reception room at the entrance. Under the leadership of the receptionist, they entered Yili Normal College and went to the teachers' dormitory area to find Ran Xiaoyi.

From the uncle, Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping also learned about Ran Xiaoyi's years at Yili Normal College.

"This is the teachers' dormitory area of ​​the school. Teacher Ran and Teacher Zheng live upstairs."

"Up here?"

"Yes, that's the apartment." The receptionist looked up and shouted, "Teacher Ran, Teacher Ran..."

upstairs.

Ran Xiaoyi and Zheng Chengyun had just finished breakfast and were going to clean up and go to the classroom to teach students.

"Yiyi, it seems that Uncle Alimu is calling you."

Zheng Chengyun heard someone downstairs calling Teacher Ran. There was only Teacher Ran in the school named Ran Xiaoyi.

"It's really Uncle Alimu." Ran Xiaoyi smiled and walked out of the room, walked to the corridor and looked downstairs: "Good morning, Uncle Alimu, are you okay?"

"Your friend came to school to see you."

Xu Jingping smiled and waved: "Classmate Ran Xiaoyi, look here."

"Jingping!"

Seeing Xu Jingping waving to her downstairs, Ran Xiaoyi thought she was dazzled. She was stunned for a while before she came to her senses, turned around and ran downstairs.

"Jingping, is it really you?"

"Who else could I be, Yiyi? I've only graduated a few years ago. You won't forget me, right?"

"Of course not, it's unbelievable, I can't even imagine it."

Ran Xiaoyi ran downstairs quickly, stumbled and almost fell down.

It’s really Xu Jingping!

She never dreamed that she would see Xu Jingping in Yili, and she never expected that Xu Jingping would come to Yili Normal College to see her.

At this moment, Ran Xiaoyi felt as if she was in a dream.

Yang Yukun stood aside with a small rice dumpling in his arms and smiled at the two people chatting. They had not seen each other for many years. They were very excited to see each other again now.

Sensing someone watching from upstairs, Yang Yukun raised his head and looked up. It was Ran Xiaoyi's lover Zheng Chengyun.

In the letter Ran Xiaoyi wrote to Xu Jingping before, there was a photo of her and Zheng Chengyun.

Zheng Chengyun heard Ran Xiaoyi yelling and quickly went out to check the situation.

Ran Xiaoyi often told him about the past in college, and what she talked about the most was Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping, childhood sweethearts. There are also photos of Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping in Ran Xiaoyi's photo album.

Seeing that Yang Yukun and Xu Jing were looking for Ran Xiaoyi, Zheng Chengyun also quickly went downstairs.

Other teachers living in the teachers' dormitory area heard the commotion and went out to check the situation. "Hello, your name is Yang Yukun. My name is Zheng Chengyun, and I am Yiyi's lover."

After going downstairs, Zheng Chengyun did not disturb Ran Xiaoyi and Xu Jingping who were reminiscing about old times, and walked towards Yang Yukun who was standing aside.

Yang Yukun reached out and shook hands with Zheng Chengyun: "Hello, Teacher Zheng."

"Comrade Yang Yukun, do you smoke?"

"Thank you, I won't smoke."

"It's better if you don't smoke." Zheng Chengyun stuffed the cigarette back into his pocket: "This is the little Zongzi, hello, little Zongzi."

Yang Yukun said: "Little Zongzi, call me uncle."

"We should be called uncle." Ran Xiaoyi wiped her tears: "Chengyun and I are older than you and Jingping, so Xiao Zongzi should call us uncle and aunt."

Yang Yukun smiled and said: "Classmate Ran Xiaoyi, did you remember it wrong?"

"I was born in 1958, and you and Jingping were born in 1961. There is absolutely no way I can remember it wrong."

Ran Xiaoyi remembers very clearly that Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping were both born in 1961.

She was born in 1958, three years older than Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping.

Judging from their age, the little girl Xiao Zongzi should call her and Zheng Chengyun uncle and aunt.

"Okay, Teacher Ran, you can even remember so clearly which year Jingping and I were born."

"That's it, little Zongzi. I finally see you, little girl. Call Auntie and listen."

"aunt."

"Hey, this little girl is so cute."

Ran Xiaoyi took the little zongzi. She really liked this cute little girl.

Xu Jingping smiled and said: "If you like it, hurry up and have one."

"It's almost there, I just don't know if it's a boy or a girl."

"Yes?"

"Two months."

"Yiyi, congratulations."

"Jingping, Xiaokun, let's go home first."

"it is good."

The family of three followed Ran Xiaoyi and Zheng Chengyun upstairs.

After entering the room, Zheng Chengyun quickly took stools for Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping to sit on, and poured water for them.

"Xiaokun, Jingping, you two sit down first, and I'll make breakfast for you."

"No need to bother Teacher Zheng, we just came here after breakfast."

"Really eaten?"

"We're eating in the guest house. Stop working. Sit down and let's chat for a while."

"Row."

Ran Xiaoyi said: "Jingping, Xiaokun, when did you come here?"

Xu Jingping replied: "I flew from the Imperial Capital to Urumqi yesterday afternoon, and then from Urumqi to Ningyuan at eight o'clock in the evening. When we arrived in Ningyuan, it was already dark. We found a guest house to stay. We will come to see you after breakfast today. coming."

Zheng Chengyun said: "Is it Brother Ashan's guest house?"

Yang Yukun said: "Teacher Zheng, do you also know Brother Ashan?"

"I know him, he is a very warm-hearted person. When I first came to Ningyuan, I was unfamiliar with the place and could not tell the difference between east, west, north and south. Brother Ashan sent me to Yili Normal University after he learned that I was a teacher who came to work in Yili Normal University. "

Calculating time, Zheng Chengyun has been working at Yili Normal University for more than six years, and he basically knows all the local fellows around the school.

Several people sat around and chatted together. Most of the time, Xu Jingping and Ran Xiaoyi were talking. Yang Yukun and Zheng Chengyun were listening and chiming in from time to time.

Ran Xiaoyi and Zheng Chengyun both had classes in the morning. Seeing that it was almost time, they had to go to the classroom to teach students.

Yang Yukun and Xu Jingping took small rice dumplings and wandered around the campus of Yili Normal University, taking some photos as souvenirs. (End of chapter)
