After Chu Ye returned to the dormitory, he rummaged through his luggage and found what Mu Jiajun said, an envelope folded into a rectangular shape. After opening it, there was a sheet of twenty yuan, with a few lines of words flying on the paper, which looked like jumping. butterfly.
The letter said: You don’t have much money with you, so just keep the twenty yuan. If you feel bad about it, you can pay it back to me later when you get a job. If you have anything to do at school, you can send me a letter. I hope everything is well with you.
Chu Ye read just a few lines of words for a long time. After reading them, she folded them carefully and put them into a cloth bag.
She lowered her head and continued to pack her things. During this period, the last roommate in the dormitory arrived. Her name was Leng Zhuojun. As her name suggests, she was quiet and cold-spoken. She had a neat student hair, was taller than the three of them, had fair skin, and was not particularly beautiful. , but when you stop there, it looks particularly impressive.
After the four people exchanged their names, the dormitory fell into silence again. Chu Ye and Leng Zhuojun packed their things. Zhao Yue was restless and helped the two of them diligently. The atmosphere in the dormitory was also harmonious.
Early the next morning, when the four of them in the dormitory came out of the cafeteria, they heard the school announcement announcing that they should go to the classroom to get teaching materials. They looked at each other, took their rice bowls, and headed to the teaching building in a tacit understanding.
The school's cafeteria is just behind the teaching building. The teaching building is a five-story red brick building. The lower two floors are the teachers' offices, the teaching office and the tea room. The upper three floors are student classrooms, but there are no Fully occupied.
A few people climbed to the fifth floor and saw that there were people sitting in the four classrooms at this time. There were four classes in their class. Students were assigned classes immediately after they were admitted. Chu Ye happened to be in class.
The four of them walked into the classroom. The classroom was not big. At a glance, there were about a dozen wooden desks. They were the common ones where two people sit at the same table. There were three desks in a row.
At this time, there were several piles of books placed on the floor of the podium, and there were male students hunched over to carry them here. The students who came in advance also chose their seats to sit down, and some lively ones began to communicate back and forth.
Among the people in Chu Ye's dormitory, except for Zhao Yue who was lively and warm-hearted, the other three were not that outgoing. At this time, they were not interested in chatting with classmates, so they found a seat in the front row by the window and waited for the books to be handed out.
After a while, there were bursts of exclamations in the corridor. Chu Ye was confused and looked up to see a girl in a white dress standing at the door of the classroom. The girl was not short, carrying a small leather bag on one shoulder and a pair of T-shaped skirts on her feet. Wearing black leather shoes, the sunlight outside the window was falling on her body, making her look particularly youthful and beautiful.
Not to mention, this girl has fair skin and raised eyebrows. She naturally looks a bit arrogant when she looks at people. There are several boys behind her who can't help but look at her.
Presumably the restlessness outside just now was because of this girl. Chu Ye's eyes swept over this girl's face, and her head froze for a moment. She felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
The girl glanced around the classroom and landed behind Chu Ye, where Qin Manwen was. Then she looked away, raised her head slightly, and sat down in the middle of the first row.
Behind her were three girls, probably from the same dormitory as her. The girls looked at each other, and finally walked quietly, sitting two rows behind her.
After a while, half of the podium was filled with books, and the head teacher walked in at this time.
He looked like a man in his fifties, wearing silver-rimmed glasses, with some gray hair on his temples. He was short, slightly fat, and spoke calmly.
He first called two boys to the podium and asked them to distribute the books to the students. Then he asked the students to write their names on the books to prevent them from being lost. Finally, he told them about watching a movie tonight and eight o'clock tomorrow morning. After class, he waved and left.
Chu Ye and the four of them all came out of the restaurant and went straight to the classroom. No one had a pen with them. In the end, Zhao Yue smiled and asked the people around him to get a pen, and the four of them took turns writing their names on the cover.
When they had finished writing and put the books in the drawer and were about to go back to the dormitory, they heard a scolding sound coming from next to them.
"Did you do it on purpose! Huh? This pen of mine is so valuable!" Everyone's eyes were attracted by the sudden voice, and they all looked at the girl in the white dress.
Her two slender eyebrows were twisted together, her eyes were sharp, and she looked domineering.
The girl sitting behind her wrinkled her face, with tears in her eyes, and shook her head desperately, looking like she was being bullied.
"Why are you crying! Why don't you pick up my pen quickly? You can't afford to pay for it if it's broken!" The girl in the white skirt was obviously not easy to talk to. She slapped her hand on the table and said reluctantly.
There was silence in the classroom, and those who originally wanted to leave sat down quietly to watch the show. Everyone just enrolled in school yesterday, and they were not very familiar with each other. When something like this suddenly happened, everyone around them was watching quietly, trying to figure out what happened. The reason is that no one came out to speak at this time.
When the girl in the back seat heard such humiliating words, her face turned red. After getting over the shock, she raised her arm and wiped her eyes, then lowered her head and picked up a black pen from the ground.
When she handed the pen over, she began to explain herself. Although her voice was not loud, she spoke very firmly, "Qiao Mingzhu, it was clearly because you didn't hold it firmly that it fell to the ground. Don't rely on me here. You Don’t look down on people. If it’s really broken because of me, I can afford to pay for it no matter how expensive your pen is.”
The girl in the white dress rolled her eyes and didn't reply. She took the pen and checked it carefully, then lightly scratched the book. After confirming that there was no problem, she said as if giving a reward, "Hey! Can you afford the compensation? This pen is imported from abroad. It’s the only one in the department store. I’m afraid you’ve never seen it.”
She glanced at the girls and didn't bother to speak, "I've been really unlucky these past two days. Yesterday, my skirt was stained by a vendor, and today you dropped my pen. It's really time to get rid of your bad luck." Chu Ye next to him heard this and his eyes widened. She opened her eyes and saw that the angry words of the vendor yesterday corresponded exactly with what the girl in the white skirt said just now. She carefully and quietly studied the appearance of the girl in the white skirt, and finally came up with a guess in her mind.
She has seen this person before! He even got into a fight!
Chu Ye recalled that during the days when she took the exam in June, Mu Jiajun invited her to a restaurant for noodles one noon. As a result, a girl at the next table mocked her as a bumpkin from the countryside.
When she heard this, she was not angry and fought back on the spot, leaving the girl speechless. She still remembers that when she went out after dinner, she was still lamenting that although this girl was mean-mouthed and thought she was domineering because of her dress, in fact But without a single rebuke.
Chu Ye suddenly realized that she was the girl the vendor complained about yesterday. Chu Ye's eyes fell on the hem of her skirt and found that it was completely white with nothing on it. It must have been washed yesterday.
The girl named Qiao Mingzhu put her purse on her shoulder and stood up to leave the classroom, but the girl at the back table grabbed her arm at this moment.
"You can't leave. You have to speak clearly. I can't be wronged by you for no reason." The girl's expression became firmer as her timid appearance disappeared.
"Let's all comment. When I returned her pen just now, I called her from behind. She didn't look back, but just turned her hand back. I put the pen in her hand. Who knew she didn't grab the pen quickly and dropped it on the ground."
"Then she scolded me and said that I dropped the pen. She obviously didn't hold it properly. I didn't even touch the pen at that time. My deskmate can also vouch for me!"
Despite the initial panic caused by being frightened by Qiao Mingzhu, the girl now feels more confident the more she talks, she has done nothing wrong in the first place, so she will not bear the injustice in vain.
Hearing this, Qiao Mingzhu frowned, with impatience written on her face. She twisted her arm to get rid of the pull, and shouted, "Okay! I won't hold you accountable anymore, so don't bother yourself here."
"You! Stop slandering me here! I won't admit it if I didn't do it!" The girl immediately fought back.
Qiao Mingzhu stood there, with the eyes of the entire classroom focused on the two of them. She didn't want to leave, nor did she stay.
The pen fell to the ground just now, and it was true that she couldn't hold it steady, but she still subconsciously blamed others. Anyway, others did use her pen, so what happened if she just said it.
Who would have thought that this girl is still a prickly person, and now she can't get off the stage. She glanced at everyone in the classroom, and they all had dark and yellow faces. At first glance, they looked like people who work all over the world, and they wanted her to be under the nose of these people. Admit that you have wronged someone? Don’t even think about it in this life!
Qiao Mingzhu looked impatient, but she was good-looking, while the girl who confronted her looked angry and vowed to explain clearly what happened just now.
Some male classmates stood up and tried to persuade the two of them, and some girls began to pull away from the two of them, saying nice things, trying not to make the relationship between the classmates too tense.
After all, I have just arrived at school, not even the first day of school, and I will still be classmates for a long time.
Here, Zhao Yue was a warm-hearted person and joined the crowd to watch the excitement. Chu Ye was not interested in this. After looking at each other with the other two, he silently picked up his rice bowl and stood up.
She and Leng Zhuojun were walking in front. Qin Manwen was a step late in order to get the rice bowl in Zhao Yue's drawer, and in order to pull Zhao Yue out of the crowd, Qin Manwen did not follow them at this time.
After the two of them returned to the dormitory, it took a while before the two of them came back. As soon as Zhao Yue entered the room, he closed the door of the dormitory, looking like he had finished eating and wanted to share it.
"In my opinion, the girl in the white skirt must have lost her grip on the pen and dropped it to the ground. People in the row behind her also came out to testify, saying that it was indeed in her hand at that time and she dropped it herself. ”
Zhao Yue pouted, "But the girl didn't admit it. After all, the people around her didn't see what happened with their own eyes at the time, and it was hard to take sides. Fortunately, the pen was intact. They were in the same dormitory, so everyone persuaded them to give up. This is over.”
"But judging from their expressions, I guess they won't get along too well in the future."
After saying that, she curiously said to the three of them, "Hey, that girl is wearing very nice clothes, but her temper is too bad."
After hearing this, Chu Ye felt deeply convinced. She nodded and responded, "What you said is true."
As soon as he finished speaking, three pairs of widened eyes looked over, waiting for Chu Ye's next words.
