Chapter 105: Stick Together
However, her sons had already been grown-ups when they started college.
Adult boys should be independent.
“Let’s go! Let’s all go together,” Xu Mingzhen said with a smile.
As they were walking, Xu Mingzhen was realizing why, although Ming Yeqing was from a prominent family, he didn’t act all high maintenance or stuck-up in the slightest.
His parents had been very strict with him and didn’t spoil him at all.
Everyone went through all the formalities, and then they got the keys to the dormitories.
Xu Mingzhen said, “Let’s go to Yeqing’s dormitory first and help him settle down before going to Mo Mo’s.”
Xu Mingzhen was too aware of what her sons were like.
It would have been different if Tan Mo hadn’t been there, but since Tan Mo is here, there was no way she would be able to convince any of the boys to leave Tan Mo and help Ming Yeqing.
But if she attended to Tan Mo first and made Ming Yeqing wait, after she had seen Ming Yeqing alone with only a driver by his side, she couldn’t bear it.
“You don’t have to go through the trouble.” Ming Yeqing was afraid of causing trouble to the Tan family, so he said hurriedly, “Uncle Zhang’s help is enough, and I don’t have a lot of luggage.”
It was because his family lived in City B that he could go back and get anything he needed at any time.
Plus, he’s a boy, so he doesn’t have as many daily necessities as girls.
He’d only brought a 28-inch suitcase and two 24-inch suitcases.
Bedding items such as sheets, pillows, and quilts took up most of the space. His daily necessities were in the two 24-inch suitcases.
He didn’t bring many clothes, since he could go home to change and wash at any time anyway.
“There are so many places to clean in the new dormitory. How can the two of you alone be enough?” Xu Mingzhen said as she led everyone to the boys’ dormitory. Uncle Zhang probably wouldn’t know where to start.”
Xu Mingzhen forcibly took the large group of people to Ming Yeqing’s dormitory.
Ming Yeqing’s roommates had already arrived, and their parents were also cleaning up the dormitory together.
Ming Yeqing’s room couldn’t fit this large group of people.
It was a room for four people. They slept on the upper bunks. Under the beds were a bookcase, desk, and closet. The room was quite spacious, and there was a long table in the middle.
After Xu Mingzhen, Tan Wenci, and the parents of his roommates met, Xu Mingzhen said, “This child’s parents insist that boys learn to be independent, so they let him come by himself. This child is only 15 years old, and it just so happens that he and my daughter are good friends, so we just brought them here together. He is young, so he will have many things he needs help with in his daily life. Please help him get along.”
“Oh my, he’s been admitted to Beijing University at such a young age. He’s really a child prodigy,” one of the roommate’s mother said enviously. “From your accent, I see you’re a native of City B?”
“Yes, fortunately, these two children were admitted, and they are local so we can take care of them. From your accent, are you from the Jiangcheng area?” Xu Mingzhen was going all out being a social butterfly.
With just a few words, they became acquainted with each other.
They learned that the other three people in the room were all students from the south.
“You guys are far away from home, and we are local, so we can help take care of them if something comes up. Don’t worry,” Xu Mingzhen said cheerfully.
Seeing that she was so easygoing and so forthright, the parents of the three students were also very happy, and they all asked their sons to take care of Ming Yeqing.
Ming Yeqing watched from the sidelines, and his heart felt warm.
It was good to have strict parents, but this feeling of someone planning things for him so considerately was really heartwarming.
Xu Mingzhen quickly instructed her three sons to help clean up.
Ming Yeqing couldn’t let them do it alone, so he did whatever Xu Mingzhen instructed her three sons to do.
However, most of the work was done by the driver, Uncle Zhang, and fortunately, under Xu Mingzhen’s instructions, the work was quickly finished.
Uncle Zhang really wouldn’t have known where to start.
When he first came in and took a look around, he thought the dormitory was pretty neat and didn’t need to be cleaned up.
Without Xu Mingzhen, he would probably have been done after making the bed.
Unexpectedly, there turned out to be so much dust.
Ming Yeqing didn’t have many things so the cleaning was quickly accomplished, and then everyone went to Tan Mo’s dormitory together.
Tan Mo’s three roommates had arrived a few days earlier.
After they’d been admitted to Beijing University, they had been excited and a little impatient.
After finding out that the dormitory was open and they could move in, they moved in quickly.
They wanted to experience the environment and atmosphere of Beijing University in advance.
So, when Tan Mo came, the three roommates had already cleaned up, and their parents had gone home.
When the three of them saw Xu Mingzhen and the others, they didn’t see anyone who looked like their roommate in terms of age.
“Hello, I don’t know if it’s all right for men to come in?” Because it was a female dormitory, Xu Mingzhen asked the guys to wait outside. “Her father and brothers brought her here together.”
“Ah, it’s all right.” The three of them had checked and saw that there was nothing that shouldn’t be seen lying around. A fair-skinned, fresh-faced girl hesitantly asked, “I don’t know who is…”
“It’s me.” Tan Mo took the initiative to stand up and say, “My name is Tan Mo, and I hope we get along in the future.”
Although Tan Mo was young, she did not address the roommate as older sister.
How could ordinary girls want to be called older sister by their peers?
Such a person must have nefarious intentions.
“My name is Jin Yuelin,” said the fresh-faced girl. “I’m from Shonan.”
A short-haired girl with a bob waved to Tan Mo and said, “Hello. My name is Meng Yuxi, and I’m from Zhejiang.”
A girl with a ponytail, eyeglasses, and a clear face shyly pushed up her glasses on the bridge of her nose and said, “My name is Lin Fuxi, and I’m from Jiaoyuan.”
“Yuxi and Fuxi were both the top scorers on the science college entrance examination from their provinces. I did a little worse and only got third place on the liberal arts college entrance examination in my province.” Jin Yuelin smiled and said, “Fortunately, I’m an ethnic minority so I have an added advantage, but I am still the worst among us.”
“How could that be?” Meng Yuxi smiled and said, “Your province had a different test paper. I read on the Internet that your province’s exam paper for this year was very difficult. It can’t be compared to the other province’s exam papers. And even without your ethnic minority status, you would still be able to come to Beijing University.
“Fuxi is not only the top scorer on the science college entrance examination from her province, but she also got a full scholarship to Beijing University.” Meng Yuxi said, “Fuxi’s province has a very high admissions score, so it wasn’t easy for her to get into Beijing University from her province.
Meng Yuxi continued enviously, “The standard for granting full scholarships in Beijing is extremely high. After all, those who can be admitted to Beijing University, except for those who have other talents, all have excellent scores, so it is impossible to give out scholarships to everyone, and the recipients can only be strictly screened.”
