As soon as Sun Ganchao came in, he found two people already in the dormitory, sitting on the bed reading a book.
The one who wears glasses looks a little younger, maybe in his 20s, but Sun Qianchao thinks his actual age should be older.
It has a lot to do with the way he wears it. He is wearing a brand new black tunic suit, paired with neat short hair, which makes him look younger.
But the other one looks much older. He probably comes from a poor family. He has several patches on his clothes and his complexion is pale. It can be seen that he must be suffering from long-term malnutrition. He has white hair on both temples.
He looks like someone in his forties, and looks like he is from another generation.
After a brief observation, he said hello: "Hello, comrade, I am Sun Qunchao, a native of Jichun!"
"Hello, Hu Ying"
"What a coincidence. My name is Zheng Xu, and I am also from Jichun~"
Both of them were very enthusiastic. Zheng Xu, the one wearing glasses, even took the initiative to help with his luggage.
Sun Qianchao chose a lower bunk by the window and chatted with others while making the bed: "You guys came quite early. I thought I would be the first to arrive!"
"I live close by, so there's nothing going on. It's a little early when I get here!~" Zheng Xu stood aside and replied with a smile.
Hu Ying said with some envy: "It's good for your family to live locally. I'm just the opposite. I live far away and I came early because I was afraid of being late!"
Through chatting with Sun Qianchao, he learned that although Zheng Xu, who wears glasses, looks younger, he is one year older than himself and is 29 this year.
He used to work in a steel factory, and he must have a good family background. He has the same temperament as his brother-in-law.
And this Hu Ying, although he looks like he is in his 40s, in fact he is only 26 years old. He must have suffered a lot before, but he has a very sunny personality and lives quite far away. Although his hometown is in Hebei Province.
But I had been joining the queue in Yongliang Province in the northwest, and this time I came directly from there. It was not easy to go to university. The three of them chatted and gradually became familiar with each other.
In the next two days, other roommates also moved in one after another. There were still relatively few freshmen this year, so the eight-person dormitory was not full at all, with only six people living there.
In addition to Zheng Xu and Hu Ying just now, three more people came, namely Li Penglong from Heilongjiang Province next door, Jiang Hao from Ludong Province, and Ding Pingan from Shanxi Province.
It is worth mentioning that none of the 6 people in dormitory 305 are from the south, they are all from the north.
The major that Sun Qianchao studied is still a bit niche. There are relatively few people admitted this year. In the past ten years, too many people have been unable to receive continuing education due to various reasons, and even if they are admitted, very few people I will study history.
Therefore, the number of students admitted to the history department this year is only 116. They are divided into four classes according to their different focuses. Sun Qianchao’s class focuses on modern Chinese history.
Among the roommates in the same dormitory, the youngest one is Li Penglong from Black Province. He is only 18 years old this year. He was not yet an adult when he took the exam last year. He was extremely lucky. There was no hope at home, but he passed the exam.
Ding Yian from Shanxi Province is the oldest, already 31 years old this year. Perhaps because he is a few years older and already married and has children, he has a calm temperament.
His words were very logical, because before he came to study, he was already a deputy director of their local commune. It is estimated that he can be promoted to a level after graduation, and his future is limitless.
After everyone arrived, class officially started. Among his roommates in the dormitory, only Zheng Xu was in the same class as him, and the others were in other classes.
So the two of them walked together in the morning, chatting on the way.
"Catch up, I heard you said you were married before, so you really got married too early. Do you regret it when you look at these female classmates in our school?"
"Especially the one I walked past just now. Oh my god, it's so beautiful. I feel like I'm in love!"
After two days of getting along with each other, they got along well because they were both local and in the same class. Sun Qianchao also knew that although this person was not young, he had a rather out-of-touch personality and often liked to be a bit exaggerated. joke.
It is precisely because of this personality that the relationship with other people in the dormitory is not very good. I can only say that he is decent, because people in this era are still relatively conservative, and not everyone can accept his jokes.
"I said, Brother Xu, can you please keep your voice down? If people hear this, they will think that we are playing hooligans. If we are sued to the school, both of us will have to suffer!"
In fact, Zheng Xu just had a taste for words. If he dared to do anything that crossed the line, the old man who was transferred from the army would have his belt cut off.
Just like this, we walked to the classroom while chatting. When we got to class, we suddenly discovered that our class teacher was the person we met in the carport that day.
The teacher on the podium also recognized Sun Qianchao and nodded kindly to him.
Then he glanced at the classroom, took out the chalk and wrote three words on the blackboard, then turned around and said: "Hello everyone, my name is Gao Liren!"
"He is the class teacher of Class 2 in our History Department. In the next four years, we will learn and grow with you. You are a lucky group of people and will be the first batch of students when we resume enrollment!"
"I also want to say hello to you in advance. I will treat you very harshly academically. Of course, if you encounter any problems, don't worry and tell me. I will definitely help you solve it if it can be solved!"
…
Just like this, college life began, and time passed like this day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for summer vacation.
Because I had gotten along well with my roommates in the past few months, Sun Chanchao specifically said that night:
"Brothers, we have a holiday the day after tomorrow. Don't leave in a hurry. I'll treat you all to dinner, which can be regarded as a gesture of friendship as a landlord~"
"This is great, Brother Catching Up. Last time my sister-in-law made the pork belly, it was definitely not worse than the ones made in the restaurant. This time it's a treat!"
Because Li Penglong was relatively young, he must have something delicious to eat, and he almost jumped up. Materials were still relatively scarce in this era, and there was nothing delicious in the university cafeteria.
All day long, it's either sauerkraut or cabbage, or potato seeds. Occasionally, a meat dish is available in limited quantities, on a first-come, first-served basis. If you go late, you won't even be able to drink the soup.
After everyone got acquainted with each other, Sun Qianchao would sometimes take these classmates home to improve the food on weekends. At the same time, since he was not short of money anyway, he just used it as a way to make connections.
Ding Yian, who is from Shanxi Province, bought his tickets half a month in advance because he missed his wife and children back home.
He declined politely: "I'm really sorry about catching up. I missed my children so much that I already bought the train ticket."
Li Penglong, who lived in the upper bunk, jumped out of bed because of his youth, leaned over and said with a smile:
"Brother Ding, if you miss your sister-in-law, just miss your sister-in-law. Why are you talking about your eldest nephew?"
"Go away, you little chicken. What do you know about someone who has never even been with someone?"
The assimilation ability of Northeastern dialect is relatively strong. Ding Ping'an only stayed for less than half a year and could already speak a few sentences.
"Hmph, I'll ignore you~" Li Penglong felt like his heart had been stabbed twice, and turned around and walked to Sun Qunchao's bed.
Because of the six people in the same dormitory, only he, Zheng Xu and Jiang Hao from Lu Dong were not married, but the others all had partners. Only Li Penglong was younger and had never touched the hands of a Dalian girl since he was a child...
