Chu Xia had no intention of greeting Guan Yan. She only glanced at her nephew who was being held by Guan Yan's hand and nodded politely to the others: "Yes."
Then he turned to look at Cen Huaian: "An An, is the bed ready? Your uncle and sister are still waiting for us."
"Okay." Cen Huaian could clearly feel his mother's mood getting lower after Guan Yan and her group came in.
The bed itself was almost made, he put the quilt in place and stepped down the ladder.
The smile on Guan Yan's face froze. Her sister-in-law nudged her in confusion: "Xiao Yan, is this your friend?"
She didn't say the rest, but Guan Yan could tell: Why does your friend look like he doesn't want to pay attention to you
Guan Yan glanced at Chu Xia, smiled at her sister-in-law and said, "We used to live in a family compound. Sister-in-law, let's pack up quickly."
In the dormitory was her eldest brother's wife who had always been praising her. Guan Yan didn't want her to see her other side, so she urged her sister-in-law to pack up quickly.
There are eight people living in a dormitory. The space is not big and it becomes crowded when there are more people.
After Cen Huaian came down, Cen Zhengnian and Chu Xia had already stuffed his clothes and daily necessities into the closet.
There is a large cabinet against the wall of the dormitory, which is divided into several small rectangular cabinets for students to store their things.
The last time Cen Huaian and Zhang Lu came here for an exam, they had seen their dormitory and understood the general situation there.
Moreover, Zhang Lu knew a lot of friends, and she also had friends in high school. Cen Huaian also knew all the dormitory precautions that she knew.
Therefore, under Zhang Lu's reminder, Cen Huaian bought a lock in advance. He locked his cabinet with the lock, took the key and looked at Chu Xia and Cen Zhengnian: "Mom, Dad, let's go."
Then he casually picked up his schoolbag, which contained several high school Olympiad mathematics books.
After walking out, Chu Xia's family did not speak to Guan Yan and the others, which made Guan Yan, who had been watching them out of the corner of her eye, frown.
Guan Yan's sister-in-law also glanced towards the door, then turned to look at Guan Yan with a meaningful look in her eyes.

The autumn heat is very severe. As soon as you walk out of the dormitory building, the cool feeling in the stairwell suddenly disappears. The scorching sun falls on your face and body, making it impossible to open your eyes.
"Uncle! Aunt! An An!"
Zhang Lu was quicker than Chu Xia and the others. She stood opposite the boys' dormitory, waving and shouting, with her hand on her forehead to block out the sunlight. Jiang Zhida stood beside her with his hands in his pockets, looking relaxed.
The girls' dormitory is opposite the boys' dormitory.
After she finished shouting, Zhang Lu ran over, giggling and crawling under Chu Xia's big black umbrella: "Aunt, it's better here, there's no sunshine."
Chu Xia smiled and rubbed her head: "Then stay next to me."
Cen Huaian looked at Zhang Lu, moved his feet, and stood under Chuxia's umbrella.
Jiang Zhida walked over slowly with his hands in his pockets and a cynical smile on his face, giving people a feeling of being unreliable.
But if you get close to him, you can feel that it is just his appearance. You can't even figure out what he is thinking under his smiling face.
"This place is very close to Yunmengze. Let's go to my place for dinner."
The distance between No. 4 Middle School and Yunmengze is less than three kilometers, and it only takes a few minutes to get there by car.
