Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 203: What man is not tired?

Graduating from college means truly stepping out of campus and into society. Graduates who have not yet adapted to society and the workplace will inevitably miss the carefree life on campus. Zhou Jing, who graduated from college for the second time, felt no waves in his heart.

After the graduation thesis defense was over, the group invited the instructor to dinner on Friday night. Zhou Jing entrusted the archiving matters to his roommate who was not in a hurry to go to work. There was nothing else to do at school, so he packed up and left the dormitory.

On Saturday noon, after delivering his belongings to the car, Zhou Jing went to Chen Jiaqian's dormitory to help move things. The senior students had been moving things these past two days, and the aunty in charge of the girls' dormitory was not that strict, so it was easy for boys to get in.

"Hello handsome guy."

Zhou Jing walked into Chen Jiaqian's dormitory and several girls welcomed him with smiles.

"Is it not presumptuous to come to the girls' dormitory?"

Zhou Jing said with a smile.

"Not presumptuous, not presumptuous."

"You are welcome to come more often, but it's a pity that there will be no chance in the future."

The girls were talking and laughing.

"I don't think there's much stuff. It's quite a lot to pack up. You can't take it all at once, right?"

Chen Jiaqian had almost packed up her things. She sold the useless books as waste paper, and packed the remaining bedding into a package. She also put a box in it containing several professional books and small items, as well as clothes, a washbasin and foot basin, a thermos, and so on.

"The car has arrived downstairs. I'll go down and give it a try."

Zhou Jing glanced at Chen Jiaqian's things. They were not heavy, but they were inconvenient to carry. Zhou Jing picked up the package of bedding and delivered it to her one at a time.

“It’s convenient to have a car.”

"When is Jiaqian going to get married?"

"It's still early!"

They envied Chen Jiaqian for having a boyfriend like Zhou Jing.

He already had his own car before graduating from college, which at least shows that his family is better off than most people. It will definitely not be a problem for him to get married and buy a house. The boy is also handsome, so Chen Jiaqian can be said to have achieved success in both academics and love.

Zhou Jing put Chen Jiaqian's bedding in the car and went to Chen Jiaqian's dormitory again. The two of them moved the remaining things at once.

"Now that I'm really graduated, it would be great if I could go back to college again."

After putting the things in the car, Chen Jiaqian turned around and looked at the dormitory building, feeling a little lost.

"All good things must come to an end, and an end is a better beginning."

Zhou Jing closed the trunk of the car, got in and drank some water.

"I kind of regret not taking the postgraduate entrance exam."

The main reason why Chen Jiaqian did not take the postgraduate entrance examination was that she thought Zhou Jing was under too much pressure to earn money by working alone. If she had known that Zhou Jing could make so much money by writing novels, she would have taken the postgraduate entrance examination. It is necessary to study law and become a graduate student.

"It's not too late."

Zhou Jing started the car and drove around the back of the dormitory building and left the school.

“I can’t concentrate on reading.”

Chen Jiaqian is now completely unable to concentrate on preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination.

After leaving the school gate, Zhou Jing looked back at the school gate. He felt a little sad to officially bid farewell to the university campus.

“Is there a gas station near where you live?”

When they arrived at Xuefu Avenue, Zhou Jing put his right hand on Chen Jiaqian's leg and said.

"Yes, it's right in front of the community. Won't you be distracted while driving?"

Chen Jiaqian pinched the back of the boy's hand.

“It will be more energetic.”

Zhou Jing pinched Chen Jiaqian's thigh and took it away.

When they arrived at the neighborhood where Chen Jiaqian rented a house, Zhou Jing parked the car, took out two boxes of Furong King, and handed them to the old man, saying that he was going in to deliver something. The old man took the cigarettes and didn't say anything. He just opened the door and let him go. Zhou Jing doesn't smoke, but there is always a shortage of cigarettes in the car, including Huazi and Furong King. What he handed over was not cigarettes, but human relationships.

"One box will do."

Chen Jiaqian felt a little distressed. For her, she would think twice before buying something worth fifty dollars.

"When you get to know each other better, it will be easier to talk if you stop by."

Zhou Jing rolled down the window and shouted "thank you" to the old man as he passed by him.

"You really don't smoke?"

Seeing two packs of cigarettes in the car, Chen Jiaqian became a little suspicious.

"Have you ever seen me smoke?"

“Who knows if you smoked secretly.”

"Do I need to sneak a puff in front of you?"

Zhou Jing asked again. "You are not allowed to smoke anyway." Chen Jiaqian snorted softly, picked up a pack of cigarettes and said, "It's clearly written that smoking is harmful to health, but there are still so many people who smoke."

"There are many things that are harmful to health, and many foods are also harmful to health. Studies have shown that a person who drinks more than 100 liters of water a day will suffer from water poisoning, and eating four tons of tomatoes a day will be poisoned to death."

Zhou Jing smiled and said.

"fallacy."

Chen Jiaqian was speechless for a moment and could only squeeze out two words.

"If you think smoking is harmful to your health, just don't smoke. Don't exclude smokers. A large number of smokers will make society better. Tobacco is the number one tax source in the country, with more than 1 trillion yuan in taxes collected each year. Smokers have contributed to your university's grants and scholarships."

Zhou Jing retorted calmly.

"Well, the tax rate on cigarettes is indeed very high, so just don't smoke."

Chen Jiaqian has learned a lot. It seems that she should not be prejudiced against smokers in the future.

The car stopped downstairs. Zhou Jing opened the trunk and said as he moved things: "Just watch, I'll take the big stuff up first."

"Lock the car and send it together!"

It was a very hot day and Chen Jiaqian couldn't bear to see the boy feeling tired and hot alone.

"I have to take the big stuff anyway, so give me the keys."

Zhou Jing carried a large package in each hand and went upstairs, reaching the sixth floor in one breath without taking a breath.

The boy is doing so well but he is humble and hardworking. Chen Jiaqian feels that she has no reason to be worthy of having such an outstanding boyfriend.

Zhou Jing delivered the large packages to the house, and the two of them took the remaining small items together for the last time.

"Take a break. Are you tired?"

Chen Jiaqian wiped the boy's forehead, took a bottle of water from the car, unscrewed it and handed it to the boy.

"There is no man who is not tired."

Zhou Jing sighed. Even after rebirth, he couldn't escape the life of hard work. The difference from his previous life was that his body was more durable after rebirth. God must have made him work harder.

In this case, it is reasonable to say that the more you work, the more you get.

"Hard-working people are more tired. They should pay more attention to their health. It is not worth it to ruin their health just to make more money."

Chen Jiaqian suddenly understood her father better. It is indeed not easy for a man to carry a family on his shoulders.

"If you don't work hard now while you are still young and don't have a family or children to burden you, you will be exhausted later. If you don't work hard when you are young, you will regret it when you are old."

Zhou Jing said with a relaxed and natural smile.

"We will work hard together, and you don't have to feel pressured. My parents said that they have no requirements for the dowry. If the man gives more dowry, the more it will be, and if he gives less dowry, the less it will be. If the man buys a house, my family will give him a car. If you have a car and buy a house, my family will pay for the renovation costs, and we will pay the mortgage together."

Chen Jiaqian didn't have high requirements for the bride price, just giving it as a token of appreciation to her family was enough.

"No need, there's still your brother!"

Chen Jiaqian is also from the countryside and her family is not rich. Zhou Jing took the things out of the car, got in the car and found a place to park on the side of the road.

After returning to the house, Zhou Jing took a shower and changed into clean clothes.

Chen Jiaqian put the clothes that did not fade in the washing machine first, and washed the ones that faded next time. She washed the socks and underwear by hand.

"Let me buy you a refrigerator!"

The large living room of the three-bedroom, one-living-room house is empty, mainly because there is no refrigerator, which is inconvenient in the summer.

"No, I don't have much time to cook, and they don't need a refrigerator now so the electricity bill is hard to calculate."

Chen Jiaqian, who was washing clothes in the bathroom, glanced at the boy at the door and said.

"A refrigerator doesn't use much electricity, so it's much easier to cook with one. I can cook more meat on the weekends, and it's very convenient to stir-fry a dish when I get home from get off work during the week."

Zhou Jing leaned against the door frame and said.

"I rarely cook during the week. We work overtime at irregular intervals. We usually get off work around 6 o'clock, come back around 7 o'clock in the evening, and then we may have to work overtime again."

Although she works from nine to five, Chen Jiaqian has very little free time during the week.

"That's right. I'm already tired after get off work. Don't eat something messy when eating out."

Compared with Chen Jiaqian's situation, Zhou Jing felt that he was more relaxed.

If you have more flexible working hours, the psychological pressure will be much less.

Although Zhou Jing has to get up early and go to bed late as a class teacher, he is relatively comfortable. He accompanies his students for a run at around 45 o'clock, supervises them in their morning reading after breakfast, and has two -minute classes every day. When he has classes, he attends the classes. When he doesn't have classes, he corrects homework or slacks off. During self-study classes, he walks around the classroom. He has plenty of time to do what he likes.

"Yes, I eat less at night but I don't eat too much. I rarely eat junk food."

After washing her socks and underwear, Chen Jiaqian wiped her hands, hugged Zhou Jing, looked up and pouting.
