Chapter Twelve Arrival at School

  Looking at Xiao Yang's tall and straight back in front of me, I couldn't help but sigh, it seems that my luck is not ordinary this life, there are always noble people helping me. He should be my noble person! On the first day I returned, he saved me, and now he is so wholeheartedly helping me, alas, I don't know how to repay him, hopefully I won't owe any emotional debt.

  After crossing the single-plank bridge, I let go of his hand and said to Xiao Yang, "Thanks, it's really embarrassing to always trouble you like this." Xiao Yang turned around with a smile: "What's the big deal? I'm a guy, it's what I should do."

  "But..." "Don't 'but' me, your second uncle just said it, didn't he? He told me to take good care of you all." Xiao Yang cut me off, "If you're really embarrassed, then just treat me like your older brother. It's only natural for an older brother to help his younger sister!"

  "I already have two older brothers, but now that you mention it, I'll call you Third Brother!" I thought to myself with glee, suddenly gaining an extra brother, what a wonderful relationship!

  All the way chatting and laughing, walking not slow. On the road, there are also parents taking their children to school in twos and threes, today's students should all be third-year junior high school students, others will have to wait until September 1st to start school. We started class a week early. Alas, graduating classes are just different.

  We arrived at school, and Dad and Second Uncle first took us to register and figure out where our dormitory was. Xiao Yang said goodbye to us and left, I don't know what he's up to. Dad is indeed familiar with the teachers here, and they chatted non-stop as soon as they met.

  I pulled Xiaohui to sneak away: "Let's go, we're going back to the dorm." Xiaohui was a bit dazed: "Do you know where the dorm is?" I smiled mysteriously: "Of course I do, didn't you hear just now?" "Oh, did anyone say anything just now?" Xiaohui scratched her hair and said. I didn't say another word, quickly walking forward, afraid that Dad would scold me again.

  We arrived in front of a red-brick house; "Arrived." Qiao Hui shook her head and said, "Impossible, this is where the teachers live, how can we live here?" I said affirmatively: "It's really here, we girls will live here. Probably because the school is thinking about our safety. Who made us the first batch to have evening self-study, originally reading books didn't have evening self-study, of course no one lived in the school."

  Xiao Wei half believed and half doubted: "Is it really like that?" "Let's go take a look and we'll be clear." I pushed Xiao Wei to walk closer to the dormitory, looking into the window one by one. This teacher's room was really simple, with just a bed, a table, a chair, and some everyday buckets and basins. I couldn't help but sigh.

  "Look, I've found it." At the end of the house, there were two rooms with bunk beds. One room was packed tightly with four sets of bunk beds, each set sleeping two people, so eight sets could sleep sixteen people. At that time, few girls could persist in finishing junior high school, and having sixteen students in a class was considered very good.

  We were just about to go in, when my dad and second uncle arrived. My dad said: "These two girls, they'll run off in the blink of an eye. I just ran into your teacher Liu, he'll take good care of you, be sure to listen to him." Second uncle also said: "Be sure to study hard, got it? Best if you can get into a vocational school, then you can get assigned work." We nodded in agreement.

  Then they helped us move our luggage into the dormitory and put it in order. My dad said, "The rest is up to you, we're going back now. Be careful on your own, don't get into trouble. If anything happens, tell the teacher." I nodded repeatedly, laughing in my heart: Ah, hurry up and leave! Before leaving, my dad turned around again and said, "Remember to go to the cafeteria to steam rice, steam more, eat full." "Got it, Dad, you can go back now!" I smiled and replied.

  After settling in, I walked to the classroom with Qiao Wei. On the way, Qiao Wei excitedly said: "Finally this day has arrived, I've been looking forward to it for a long time!" I was a bit surprised: "You like going to school that much?" "Not at all! You know, we've been looking forward to this day since we entered junior high." Qiao Wei's face was full of anticipation. "Oh, why are you so looking forward to this day?" I still looked puzzled.

  "Hey, you're getting confused again." Qiao Wei said helplessly, shaking her head. "You forgot, our school's rule is that we only have the right to choose our seats when we reach third grade. In the first month of school, we can sit wherever we want and choose our own desk mates. After the first test, the teacher will assign our seats. Such a great opportunity shouldn't be missed, let's hurry up and go to the classroom to pick the best spot." She said, pulling me along as she ran.

  Our school has a total of eight classrooms, and the first and second years have not arrived yet, so there are only our third-year students on campus, making it particularly quiet. We came to the classroom and saw that many people had already chosen their seats and were sitting there. Some may be familiar with each other chatting together, some quietly reading books, while others looked around bored, seeing me and Qiao Hui enter immediately greeted us with a nod.

  "Wow! Where did this beautiful girl come from, her clothes are so unique!" A smooth and flirtatious voice rang out. "Tsk tsk tsk! Super short skirt, what a pity her legs aren't long enough and her bust isn't big enough."

  I looked around, wondering who it was. A big, blurry face with a mouth full of yellow teeth. It was him, that scumbag who always harassed girls and got caught a few years later. What bad luck to be in the same class as us. I scolded the scum: "Keep your filthy mouth clean!"

  "Hey, still angry? I'll be heartbroken if you get mad at me." Xueying pulled me back in fear: "Don't say anything more." I let out a cold snort: "Today's the first day of school, we won't bother with that crazy dog." "What? You stinky girl dare to call me a crazy dog? Are you tired of living?" That madman's face turned beet red.

  I sneered, "It's really strange these days. Good people don't do it, but some people rush to be mad dogs." After finishing speaking, I didn't even look at that guy and pulled Xun to sit down in the seat by the window. Just as we sat down, someone else spoke up: "This seat can't be sat in." I instantly became furious: "Why can't it be sat in? Who bought it or something? Don't think we're easy to bully!"

  I ignored them and sat down again. Humph, I'm an adult with a high IQ, what are you kids afraid of? Maybe it's because my tone was too overbearing, but surprisingly, no one around me dared to speak up.

  I took out a book from my backpack and started reading it with great interest. Suddenly, someone came over and asked, "What are you reading?" I moved the book a bit to the side and whispered, "It's nothing! Don't let others see." This was something I had dug up from my brother's room yesterday, and it must have been what he read during his summer vacation.

  "Wow, you're really bold!" "Anyway, nothing's going on now. You might as well read your book!" I said nonchalantly. Besides, I've already learned all these courses once, at most I just need to listen again in class. I thought to myself. Xiu didn't say anything else and took out her textbook to start reading.

  "Luquan, where's my seat?" A voice sounded beside him, "Didn't I say I wanted the seat by the window?"
