Chapter 95 Strange
The discussion ended here. The arrangement of the life committee was temporarily put on hold and will be decided after Teacher Shen reports to the department.
After the meeting, Luo Yang took the initiative to come to Song Yuanchao, smiled and extended his hand to him: "Song Yuanchao, let me introduce myself formally. I am Luo Yang."
"Hello, classmate Luo Yang." Song Yuanchao extended his hand and shook his, smiling and saying , "I didn't expect you to recommend me as the living committee member, and you know my situation so well. This really surprised me."
"Hahaha." Luo Yang laughed heartily, looking at Song Yuanchao meaningfully: "Are you secretly scolding me now? Blaming me for meddling in your business?"
It was somewhat surprising that Luo Yang asked such a question directly. Song Yuanchao raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said calmly: "That's right, it is true, but I am more curious about why you did this? We didn't know each other before, right? And you know my situation so well."
"The answer is very simple, because someone told me, and someone asked me to do it." Luo Yang replied with a smile, and winked at Song Yuanchao at the same time: "As for who it is, I can't say it, but your performance today surprised me, or I should say, I was very surprised. In my opinion, you are not only the most suitable candidate to be the life committee member, but also qualified to be the monitor or even the secretary."
Song Yuanchao shook his head. He would not be complacent with Luo Yang's words. He immediately said, "That's because you don't understand me. I have never had great ambitions. I know how much I am capable of. I can talk, but I can't take on such a heavy responsibility when doing real work. Besides, don't you think it's more suitable for someone like me to be a member of the masses?"
As soon as Song Yuanchao finished speaking, Luo Yang laughed heartily. He patted Song Yuanchao on the shoulder and said, "You are funny, kid," then turned and left.
Watching Luo Yang's back as he left, Song Yuanchao was a little puzzled. He originally thought that Luo Yang was hostile to him, but Luo Yang's attitude was not like that. On the contrary, he admired him a little.
"Third brother, what did this kid just say to you?" Sun Yaoliang appeared out of nowhere and asked vigilantly.
"Nothing, just a normal conversation between classmates." Song Yuanchao retracted his gaze and said calmly.
"You'd better be careful. I think this kid has some bad intentions." Sun Yaoliang specifically reminded Song Yuanchao.
"Thanks."
Song Yuanchao nodded. Sun Yaoliang was right. Although he was not sure what Luo Yang's true attitude towards him was, just based on what he had done just now when he recommended him, Song Yuanchao could not help but be wary of Luo Yang.
"Let's go, Lao Cheng and the others are waiting for us. Lao Cheng is now the squad leader, which is something worth celebrating. How about we have a meal together in the cafeteria later?"
"let's go!"
As they talked, the two of them walked side by side towards the dormitory with a smile on their faces, and soon they disappeared from view.
A few days later, the department had a result on Song Yuanchao's suggestion. The department leaders agreed to the rotation system for the position of life committee member and tried to implement it in Class 1.
Although this era cannot compare with the information explosion and material abundance of later generations, the university atmosphere of this era is extremely democratic and open. School leaders and teachers are not only good at listening to students' opinions, but also support students' courage to break the rules.
When the announcement was made, Wang Jinju became the first rotating living committee member. She was extremely excited about this appointment, and other students also expressed their expectations. According to the regulations of the rotation system, not only the students who competed at the beginning can be trained in this position, but also many ordinary students. As a college student, being able to experience such training is what everyone dreams of, and it will greatly help everyone's future.
As the dust settled on this matter, Song Yuanchao's college career officially began.
University, the ivory tower in everyone's eyes, is actually not all about spring flowers, autumn moon and romance as described in many novels of later generations.
The learning atmosphere in universities of this era is very intense, especially for the new three graduating students like Lin Yan and Song Yuanchao. They have tight courses and heavy study tasks, and they don't have much time for romance.
But even so, Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan would try to make time to be together every day. They would go for a walk on campus in the evening, enjoy the scenery by the lake, and talk about their thoughts and opinions. Or they would go to the library together to read books, sit side by side or face to face, and feel the tranquility of having the most important person by their side...
Today is a day off. After a week of intense study, Song Yuanchao met Lin Yan at the school gate early in the morning. They were going out for a walk today. Song Yuanchao has not even left the school gate in all these days since he came to Yanjing, except for the day he reported.
The destination had been discussed long ago, and Song Yuanchao and Lin Yan took a car directly to the alley where Gao Da's mother's home was. Lin Yan hadn't been there for quite a while.
Aunt Gao, Song Yuanchao had heard Lin Yan mention her before. She was a respectable elder. In Lin Yan's heart, Aunt Gao's family was no different from her own relatives, just like Zhang Jianguo's family had the same status in Song Yuanchao's heart.
Walking in the alleys of Yanjing, feeling the atmosphere of life that is different from but similar to that of Shanghai, Song Yuanchao feels particularly at home in all of this.
After a while, they arrived at the large courtyard of Gao Da's family's home. Uncle Jiang, who was sitting at the door chatting, saw Lin Yan coming and greeted her warmly. At the same time, he looked curiously at Song Yuanchao who was walking with Lin Yan.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang."
"Haha, good, good, Yan Zi, you're here to see your Aunt Gao again?"
"Yes, are you feeling well these days?"
"Sure! Why not? I sleep well and eat well. Look at me, I'm still strong." Uncle Jiang stood up, patted his arms and legs, and grinned with his missing teeth: "Yanzi, this young man looks energetic, is he your...?"
"This is my boyfriend, Song Yuanchao!" Lin Yan introduced him generously.
Song Yuanchao hurriedly stepped forward to greet and bow to Uncle Jiang and several other uncles who were also looking at him with curiosity. He also took out cigarettes and distributed them to all the uncles, and struck a match to help everyone light them one by one.
Seeing Song Yuanchao's sensible appearance, Uncle Jiang was even happier. He nodded happily at Song Yuanchao while smoking a cigarette, and called Lin Yan, "This young man is not bad. Yanzi has good taste. Come in. Your Aunt Gao and Brother Zhuzi are busy in the backyard."
"Hey, Uncle Jiang, everyone, let's go in first."
Lin Yan said something to everyone with a smile, and then took Song Yuanchao into the courtyard.
After entering, there was the front yard where Grandpa Jiang and several other families lived, and Aunt Gao's family lived in the backyard. When passing through the front yard, they met several neighbors. Lin Yan greeted them while introducing Song Yuanchao next to her. Song Yuanchao was neither arrogant nor humble, and greeted everyone politely with a smile, giving everyone an excellent first impression.
When I entered the backyard, I saw Aunt Gao and a little girl standing in the yard. Looking up, I saw Wang Dazhu squatting on the roof busy with something. There was also a young woman standing on a ladder under the eaves helping to pass things.
"Auntie!" Lin Yan shouted and hurried forward.
"Hey, isn't this Yan Zi? Why are you here today?" When she saw Lin Yan coming, Aunt Gao was very happy. The little girl beside her looked up and said sweetly to Lin Yan: "Aunt Yan Zi."
Lin Yan happily picked up the child and took out some candies from her pocket and gave them to her. When the little girl saw them, she cheered and laughed so hard that her eyes became invisible.
"Brother Dazhu, sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Lin Yan looked up and called out to Wang Dazhu and his wife who were busy.
"Yan Zi is here. Find a place to stay in the yard for a while. The roof is leaking a little. Let's fix it on our day off. It will be done soon." Wang Dazhu said with a smile on the roof.
"Let me do it." On the side, Song Yuanchao had rolled up his sleeves, handed the gift in his hand to Lin Yan, and walked forward without saying a word.
Asking Wang Dazhui's wife to go down the ladder first, Song Yuanchao climbed up very nimbly. When he reached the roof, he understood everything as soon as he took a look. Due to the weather change between winter and summer, the rainproof cloth covering the roof had become brittle and cracked in some places. In addition, due to thermal expansion and contraction , there were problems with the tiles in many places.
