Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 94 The Beginning of University

When Yan Jiekuang and Wang Xun returned together, five other people had already come to the dormitory. Finally, they introduced themselves to each other and gradually became familiar with each other. Someone suggested that we should also rank ourselves, as we have been together for four years, which is a long time. Everyone responded.

The eldest one is from Harbin in Northeast China. His name is Zhang Weiqing. He studies in the Department of Architecture and is 25 years old this year.

The second one is from Zhanjiang, Guangdong, his name is Huang Wenjie, he is from the Foreign Language Department, and he is 24 years old this year

The third one is Zhang Xun, from Sichuan, majoring in mechanical engineering, and is also 24 years old this year

The fourth child is from Ningxia, his name is Wang Li, he is a student of Mechanical Engineering, and he is 22 years old.

The fifth one is from Shandong, his name is Li Weiguo, he majors in Chinese, and he is 20 years old.

The sixth one is a local named Jin Jing, who studies architecture and is 19 years old.

When it was time to line up for the seventh, Yan Jiekuang said, "Don't line me up, I must be the eighth, from the history department, I'm only thirteen years old, wait for that person to come." Before he finished speaking, a child came in and introduced himself, "I'm from Henan, my name is Zhang Puyu, I'm from the traditional Chinese medicine department, I'm 16 years old this year."

Zhang Weiqing said, "Well, Old Seven is just letting things take their course."

Everyone said it again to each other, and everyone was happy. The sixth brother Jin Jing said, "Today is the first day. Everyone has come from all corners of the world. Let us two locals show hospitality and treat everyone to old Beijing mutton hotpot. I have booked a place. Everyone, pack up and leave together later."

Everyone cheered. It wasn't that Yan Jiekuang was short of money, but he was a little surprised that Jin Jing didn't go out. When did he reserve the seat? And he should have planned to eat before coming.

At this time, Jin Jing pulled Yan Jiekuang out of the dormitory and whispered, "Old Eight, I'm sorry for making the decision without your permission. I told my dad before I came here that no matter what, I have to treat the roommates to a meal today, and I'll pay for it."

Yan Jiekuang finally understood and said with a smile: "It's okay. Just tell me how much it will cost. Since we have agreed to this, I have to pay. Otherwise, we won't be able to get along in the future."

Jin Jing thought about it and agreed.

In the evening, everyone went to Donglaishun together and went to the private room on the second floor. Yan Jiekuang was shocked again and felt that Laoliu Jin Jing was not an ordinary person.

The boss wants to drink, and everyone joins him, except the eighth boss.

They drank to their hearty delight and everyone was satisfied with the food, except for the seventh brother, who cried while eating. He said this was the most meat he had ever eaten since he was born. In fact, he wanted to say that he had only eaten so much meat once since he was born. This was what the seventh brother told him secretly after a long time.

At night, several people came to send the drunk students to the dormitory. Yan Jiekuang did not return to the dormitory. He left 80 yuan and ten kilograms of meat tickets at the counter and went back to Yuer Hutong alone.

The old man of the Jin family took a look and said to his grandson, "This is a great person, but I've never heard of him before."

Yan Jiekuang's university life officially began. He indeed stayed relatively little time in school. Except when he had classes late and did not go home, Yan Jiekuang would go back to Yuer Hutong at other times.

His instructor was the director of the history department. Director Dong was approachable, but he was really meticulous in his studies. He told Yan Jiekuang that history was a rigorous subject and what was said was what it was, and it had to be proven with strong evidence. If it could not be proven, then it was not what it was.

Yan Jiekuang still believed in Director Dong, so he began to study systematically from the beginning, and also came into contact with world history, Chinese history, and modern and contemporary Chinese history.

After that, he began a very regular study life. Due to the experience in high school, Yan Jiekuang did not join any extracurricular organizations. His spare time became abundant, and he would go back to the courtyard to spend time with his parents and younger sister when he had nothing to do.

The younger sister told him vividly what happened in the courtyard. He still felt sorry for his mother and cooked a delicious meal for her to comfort her wounded heart. It would have been better if Jia Zhang hadn't been there. Jia Zhang now disliked Yi Zhonghai very much. Although they no longer had any intersection at work, Yi Jicheng always asked Jia Dongxu to call him brother, which annoyed Jia Zhang, but she had no choice. According to seniority, she really had to call him that. Just like Yan Jiedi said, when Jia Geng came back and saw Yi Jicheng, if you told him to call him uncle, Jia Geng would probably get angry.

Jia Geng is very good now. He is a rising star in middle and long-distance running and will represent the country next year.

Jia Xiaobao is now the most important person to Qin Huairu. Jia Zhang has no chance to snatch him away, and Jia Dongxu will not allow it. So, whenever she has time, Jia Zhang asks Yan Bugui to write letters to Jia Geng, and Jia Geng really replies to every letter.

In October, a loud noise in the northwest shocked the whole world. Yan Jiekuang was very excited. Yan Bugui only then knew where his second son had gone to serve in the army. He held the newspaper and cried bitterly in the inner room.

Yang Ruiping also knew about it, and with tears streaming down her face, she said, "My son has a promising future."

Liu Haizhong became the team leader of the forging workshop. This was all thanks to Xu Damao. After He Yuzhu left, Xu Damao became very close to Liu Haizhong.

There were fewer people in the backyard, and Xu Delin was promoted to deputy director of logistics in the steel rolling mill, thanks to his father-in-law.

Zhang Erzhu lived a life of drunkenness and debauchery with a salary of 41.5 yuan per day. His family of four could survive without starving, but the luxury of eating and drinking that he had imagined before was no longer possible, and he had no place to buy them.

The front yard is still so harmonious. It's just that Widow Wang and Grandpa Sun are planning the wedding banquet for their two children. There are six houses in the two families. No wonder the street director comes to visit every day. I haven't heard that the steel rolling mill is going to expand again, with the goal of becoming a large factory with 10,000 employees.

Yan Jie Di is now in a relationship with Qing Qing, and the two are plotting against the three little ones in Yan Jie Kuang's home. Yan Jie Kuang is dismissive, as he can't even catch a glimpse of the three little ones, and the only one who often accompanies him in the house is the big cat.

Near the end of the year, Director Dong received a task to sort out a warehouse in the Forbidden City. There should be empty boxes in it. They were all cultural relics moved away when the other side retreated, and the boxes were piled up in several houses.

Director Dong asked Yan Jiekuang if he wanted to join the group, and Yan Jiekuang agreed.

The warehouse was on the east side of the Forbidden City. Director Dong took him and several other students to take on this task. This mission did not involve cultural relics, so there were no guards.

Yan Jiekuang saw that the box was also a good thing, either made of sandalwood or huanghuali. He was about to tell Director Dong about it, but Director Dong spoke up, "These boxes are also cultural relics, we should cherish them."

Yan Jiekuang was in charge of numbering. After the person in front of him finished cleaning, he had to write a small card and put it in the box, and then record it in the notebook. After cleaning more than a dozen, a box was placed in front of Yan Jiekuang. Yan Jiekuang took a look and found that it was another sandwich box. He opened the box and vaguely knew that it should be a jade. Yan Jiekuang did not move and reported it to Director Dong. After reading it, Director Dong was very excited and told the students to call the professor of the museum.

Not long after, three professors, two men and one woman, and a dozen guards came and surrounded the place. Yan Jiekuang was very surprised, but later he learned that it was the student who reported that the jade box had a layer, which was why it was taken seriously.

The guys were quite professional and there was no need for Yan Jiekuang to help. Yan Jiekuang was just watching beside them. After they removed the silk fabric that was padding the jade, they found a pair of cabinet doors underneath. They were made of jade and inlaid with gold, and the door knockers were also gold. The guys were very excited, but they couldn't open it after trying for a long time.

Yan Jiekuang told Director Dong that the ring had to be rotated once, which was the Lu Ban technique.

After Director Dong told several professors about this, one of them went up and pulled the pull ring and turned it around. The cabinet door opened and seven seals were placed side by side inside. The professors were very excited and examined them carefully. You didn't need to look too closely to see that they were from the Qing Dynasty. The first one had the four words "Shiquan Lao Ren" on it.

Director Dong and several professors were extremely excited. Not long after the things were moved away, Yan Jiekuang returned home with a reward of 20 yuan.

Back at the courtyard, he took Yang Ruiping by the hand, put twenty yuan in his mother's hand, and said, "This is the first money your Dacongming has earned."

Yang Ruiping took the twenty yuan and went into the inner room.
