"Yes aunt, I understand, we are a family."
Zhao Qijun came back with messy hair and his clothes torn by someone. One of his shoes was missing. He looked extremely miserable.
"What happened to you? How did you become like this?"
Qin Yue was startled and quickly pulled the person into the house, but a bad picture appeared in her mind. Could this child be...
"Mom, I never thought the fight for a cotton quilt would be so crazy. My shoes were squeezed off and my wallet was stolen. I didn't buy anything."
Before she could finish her words, Zhao Qijun burst into tears. In the chaos, she didn't know who had taken advantage of her. When she wanted to see who it was, the person was pushed outside.
Cheng Qiao's face changed. She clearly saw the black claw marks on Zhao Qijun's butt, and there were also some black marks on his waist and chest, but she couldn't expose it unless her cousin said anything.
"Cousin, I have two quilts here. You can take them with you when you go to school."
"No, what will you do if I take it away?"
"My master should have some here. At most, I can just borrow one and return it to my master when I buy a quilt later. By the way, Qian Longkun and Qian Longxin have also been admitted to Beijing University."
"What? Qian Longkun also passed the exam."
They used to be classmates in the same school, so naturally they knew each other, but they hadn't seen each other for so many years that they felt a little unfamiliar. Zhao Qijun's bad mood was soothed by this news.
"Qian Longxin, I'm here to see how you fulfill your promise."
"Promise, what promise?"
"I won't tell you. Come on, accompany me to get the quilt, Mom. I'm staying at Uncle Ye's house today and will report directly tomorrow."
"Hey, let's go after dinner."
"No, I help Uncle Ye cook. Of course I have to give something in return for taking his quilt. Otherwise, what kind of person would I be?"
Qin Yue shook her head and began to worry about Ye Jun. She wondered if the food cooked by this girl would suit his taste. Otherwise, she should go too.
The two of them packed up Zhao Qijun's package and rushed to Ye Jun's house. Ye Jun hadn't gotten off work yet, so Cheng Qiao took out a brand new quilt from the room and went to the kitchen.
Half an hour later, a child's voice was heard at the door. It turned out that Ye Jun had returned with three children, but Xiao Nuan's eyes were swollen.
"What's wrong, baby? Your eyes are swollen from crying. It's not pretty."
Li Xiaonuan was stunned for a moment, stretched out her hands and asked Cheng Qiao for a small mirror. Cheng Qiao took out a small mirror from his pocket. Xiaonuan looked at it, her mouth clenched and she wanted to cry again.
"Don't drop your gold beans, or your eyes will get even more swollen."
"Mom, I don't want to go to the nursery."
"Why?"
"The kid pulled my hair and it hurt."
"Did the teacher see it?"
"The teacher saw it, but the kid didn't admit it. He's a liar."
"So you cried."
"I didn't cry because my hair was pulled, but because..."
Li Xiaonuan glanced at Ye Jing and suddenly realized that if she continued talking, she would be selling out her brother.
"I slapped Yu Yue and pulled out a few of her hairs, so I was punished by the teacher. My sister didn't want me to be punished, so she kept crying until the teacher asked me to go back to my seat."
Cheng Qiao: “…”
Ye Jun smiled and touched Ye Jing's head. He said, "Well done, you did the right thing. Your sister was bullied, and as a brother, how could you not stand up for yourself? It didn't matter even if you were punished."
Xiao Nuan did a good job, but her crying was too realistic. She should fake cry from now on. What is fake crying? Her voice should be louder than the teacher’s, but her tears should not fall. They should not be real.
After hearing Ye Jun's words, the two children's eyes lit up. Qin Yue and Zhao Qijun looked at each other, wondering if this method of education would work.
Cheng Qiao met the questioning gazes of the mother and daughter and nodded resolutely. "I will not offend others unless they offend me. But if someone offends me, I will definitely fight back."
Tomorrow is the last day for school registration. Cheng Qiao and her two children sleep on a big kang. The warm feeling makes the three of them so comfortable that they almost moan:
"Mom, I miss Dad, Grandma, Aunt, and Big Brother."
Xiao Nuan touched Cheng Qiao's warm hand and spoke sleepily. Cheng Qiao nodded. She also missed her family and wondered how Li Huan and the others were doing now.
As they were thinking, they fell asleep. When Ye Jun came and knocked on the door, they realized that they had overslept. Fortunately, Qin Yue was there and got up early to make breakfast, otherwise the three children would definitely be late.
Qin Yue helped Ye Jun send the three children to school or nursery, and then slowly went to the store. Starting today, she wanted someone to decorate the store.
Cheng Qiao and Zhao Qijun also went to their respective schools to register. As soon as Cheng Qiao entered the China University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he was welcomed by the students who had arrived a few days earlier.
"Cheng Qiao, right? Your dormitory has been arranged. It's in Room 202 on the second floor of Building 2, one bed."
Cheng Qiao handed over her admission letter and her letter of introduction, and in exchange she received her dormitory key and a simple map of the school. Although the map was simple, it clearly showed the locations of the dormitories, campus and cafeteria.
"Thanks."
"No thanks, no thanks."
The students who helped with the formalities were very happy. Cheng Qiao was Dean Ye's apprentice, so he had to move around more in the future so that he could be assigned a good job after graduation.
Cheng Qiao carried her luggage to the second floor of Building 2 and found Room 202. The room was basically full of people. There was one person making the bed, and the other female classmates were sitting together whispering to each other.
Seeing the door open and a pretty girl coming in, a female student sitting at the window stood up and said, "Welcome, new roommate. You must be Cheng Qiao, right?"
"Yes, I'm Cheng Qiao."
"My name is Ni Lulu, I live in bed four, and she is Hong Fen, she lives in bed five."
"Oh, I'm in bed one, look, this is the list assigned by the school.
When everyone heard the word "Bed", they all looked at the female classmate who was making the bed. The female classmate also stiffened for a moment, slowly turned around and looked at Cheng Qiao.
Just one glance and I felt that this female classmate was annoying. She was obviously studying medicine, so why was she so pretty? But she was not stupid enough to say what was in her heart:
"Student Cheng Qiao, it's like this, I'm afraid of heights, so I want to switch with you."
"You're the one on the upper bunk."
"Yes."
"But I'm also afraid of heights, so I won't change."
"Why are you like this? You are not friendly at all and you don't care about your classmates."
"Yes, that's how I am. I don't need to be friendly or even caring towards people like you who occupy other people's beds without permission. Take your mattress away, or I'll throw it out."
"You, you dare..."
"I'll give you five minutes to move the mattress to your own bed. I'll go organize my closet first."
