1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Li Weiguo felt a warm feeling in his heart as he listened to everyone's discussion.

He smiled and said, "Everyone is right. Let's make some rules for the dormitory together so that we can live in harmony in the future."

So, the eight people sat together and began to discuss the specific content of the dormitory rules enthusiastically.

Zhao Shuheng pushed his glasses and said seriously, "I think it's more appropriate to get up at six in the morning, so that we have enough time to wash up, read in the morning, and develop good work and rest habits. Turn off the lights at 9:30 in the evening to ensure that everyone gets enough sleep, which is conducive to learning the next day."

Su Jincheng nodded and said, "Well, this time arrangement is good, I agree."

Chen Yuxuan frowned, hesitated for a moment and said, "Isn't six o'clock too early? I'm afraid I can't get up. But for the sake of the group, I can give it a try."

Wang Yong laughed: "Six o'clock is still early? When I was in my hometown, I had to go to the fields to work before dawn. This was considered late."

Liu Fusheng also nodded: "I can do it too."

Zhang Jianguo said seriously, "That's settled then. Get up at six and turn off the lights at half past nine. As for sanitation duty, one person will take turns cleaning the floor and tidying up the public areas every day. Is that okay with everyone?"

Everyone agreed.

During the discussion, Li Weiguo keenly noticed that when Yang Qiming heard Wang Yong and Liu Fusheng talking, the corners of his mouth would unconsciously curl slightly, and a hint of imperceptible disgust would flash in his eyes.

Wang Yong and Liu Fusheng were enthusiastically participating in the discussion and did not notice any of this.

What surprised Li Weiguo was that although Chen Yuxuan looked rather particular, he still communicated with everyone in a very friendly manner and did not show any contempt.

Li Weiguo sighed inwardly. He thought that everyone came from different places and had different backgrounds and habits, so it was inevitable that there would be some minor frictions, but as long as they were tolerant of each other, they would be able to live in harmony.

He himself moved to Beijing from the countryside, and he knows that everyone has their own shining points and we should not be prejudiced against people based on their background.

After the discussion, everyone dispersed and continued to organize their own things.

Wang Yong and Liu Fusheng both had upper bunks and were neighbors of Li Weiguo, so they began to chat with him enthusiastically.

Wang Yong said in a loud voice: "Classmate Weiguo, I have never been to Sijiucheng before. When the holiday comes, please take me around!"

Liu Fusheng also echoed: "Yes, classmate Weiguo, I am the same as Wang Yong, don't forget me when the time comes."

Li Weiguo agreed with a smile, and the three of them chatted animatedly, with Liu Fusheng also interjecting from time to time.

At this time, Li Weiguo discovered that Yang Qiming always glanced over here from time to time, with an obvious look of disgust on his face.

Li Weiguo looked at him suddenly. Yang Qiming seemed to notice Li Weiguo's gaze. His face turned slightly red and he turned his head away to continue making the bed.

Li Weiguo knew that Yang Qiming, as a local, had a unique sense of superiority and might not be used to hearing Wang Yong and Liu Fusheng speak with their local accent.

But he understood that it was not easy to change Yang Qiming's opinion of Wang Yong and the others.

All he could do was to help Wang Yong and Liu Fusheng make some changes within his ability so that they could better integrate into the dormitory environment.

Everyone had almost finished packing, and seeing that it was almost noon, they decided to go to the cafeteria together to eat.

Everyone talked and laughed along the way, discussing their expectations for the food in the university cafeteria.

But when I got to the cafeteria, it was packed with people, and there were long queues in front of each window.

With his height advantage, Li Weiguo spotted the beautiful scenery in the crowd at a glance - Lin Wanqing.

I saw her standing in the crowd holding a lunch box, and several boys were surrounding her and chatting her up.

Lin Wanqing frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure on her face, and obviously didn't want to talk to them.

Those male classmates didn't seem to notice Lin Wanqing's displeasure and kept moving closer to her.

When Li Weiguo saw this scene, his brows unconsciously frowned slightly and he tightened the lunch box in his hand involuntarily.

He greeted his roommates: "You guys line up first, I see someone I know, I'll go over to him." After saying that, without waiting for his roommates to respond, he strode towards Lin Wanqing's direction.

Li Weiguo strode up to Lin Wanqing, smiled, and took the initiative to greet her: "Lin Wanqing, you are here to eat too."

When Lin Wanqing saw Li Weiguo, her eyes lit up, as if she had seen a savior, and the displeasure on her face instantly dissipated a lot: "Li Weiguo, you are here to get food too."

The boys who were chatting with Lin Wanqing all tactfully stepped aside when they saw the big guy Li Weiguo coming over.

Li Weiguo stood beside Lin Wanqing, and a desire to protect her arose spontaneously. He looked at Lin Wanqing and asked softly, "They didn't embarrass you, did they?"

Lin Wanqing shook her head: "No, it's just that he keeps pestering me to talk, which is a bit annoying."

Li Weiguo smiled and said, "Ignore them, let's queue up for food together."

Lin Wanqing nodded happily, and the two of them lined up at the back of the line, chatting casually.

The two stood side by side. Lin Wanqing turned slightly to face Li Weiguo, gently shaking the lunch box in her hand with a faint smile on her lips.

The sunlight poured in through the gaps in the windows, outlining a faint golden outline on their bodies, like a warm and beautiful painting.

Li Weiguo's roommates were standing in another team not far away, their eyes wide open like copper bells, with fiery gossip flashing in their eyes, as if they had discovered a new world.

Wang Yong stretched his neck like a curious baby, and poked Zhao Shuheng beside him with his elbow. He lowered his voice and shouted, "Hey, Lao Zhao, did you see that? There's something wrong with our Weiguo!"

Zhao Shuheng's shoulder was shaken by the collision. He pushed his slightly old glasses and his sharp eyes moved back and forth between Li Weiguo and Lin Wanqing.

The eyes behind the lenses were full of inquiry and curiosity. His mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back and just nodded slightly in response.

Su Jincheng stood aside, with the corners of his mouth raised, outlining a playful arc. That smile was like a cat that had stolen some fish, revealing a cunning spirit.

He raised his hand and casually smoothed his hair, but his eyes never left the two people. From time to time, he exchanged a tacit glance with Zhang Jianguo beside him.

Zhang Jianguo's posture was still as straight as a pine tree, with his hands folded across his chest. His already serious face now had a barely perceptible looseness, and there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. He frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Chen Yuxuan was like a lit firecracker, he was extremely excited.

He kept moving his feet, sometimes on tiptoe, sometimes moving forward, as if he wanted to fly to Li Weiguo immediately to find out what was going on.

After finally waiting for Li Weiguo to finish his meal, Chen Yuxuan rushed up like a wild horse, with an exaggeratedly bright smile on his face and his eyes frighteningly bright.

The fire of gossip seemed to burst out from his eyes, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "Weiguo, who is that beautiful woman?"

While speaking, he kept winking at Lin Wanqing, with his neck stretched out so long that his head seemed to be almost disconnected from his shoulders.
