Xiang Chen's students in this year's class don't enroll in September, but in March. There are differences between schools, but they are basically concentrated in the first few days of March. The capital normal school where Xiang Chen works is reported on March 6th.
Xu Hengzhou and his school started reporting earlier on the 4th, so Xiang Chen first accompanied Xu Hengzhou to his school to report.
On the first day of school, Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou went there empty-handed, only Xu Hengzhou carried a simple backpack, which contained some required documents. Anyway, their home is very close to the school, and it only takes about ten minutes to walk there. The report time is more than one day, so let's take a look at the school environment first, and it's not too late to buy things after the registration.
Compared with them, the other students who came to report were different. All of them had big bags and small bags, and they carried handbags on their shoulders. Some of them looked over and saw a mountain of luggage moving. In fact, the people who carried the bags were covered .
In this way, the empty-handed Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou are very eye-catching. People regard them as school employees, or come to visit. They never thought that they were also students who came to report, and someone asked them for directions.
Fortunately, Xu Hengzhou had been to the school a long time ago, so he knew the general direction, so he knew the direction when asked. After sending one away, two more immediately gathered around and asked politely.
Xu Hengzhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, this is really treating him as a school employee, Xiang Chen smiled and helped him answer other people's questions, when the two of them came over, they drew a small map for Xiang Chen's use, he will definitely come here often in the future Look for Xu Hengzhou, afraid that he won't be able to remember it well.
At this moment, he is holding a small map hand-painted by Xu Hengzhou himself, giving clear and orderly directions, and all the buildings that can be seen from where to go are very reliable.
Then, the two men were surrounded.
The university campus is already very big, and the school has arranged people to receive new students, but now the school is short of manpower, not counting the workers, peasants and soldiers college students above, who are the first batch of college entrance examinations. In charge of registration work, logistics, fee payment, reception, the school even sends out teachers, but there are still not enough manpower.
So no one is guarding the inner part of the gate. When freshmen come, they can always see the sign when they go inside. If you look for it, even if you take a detour, you can still find the registration points of various majors.
?But these freshmen are stupid, this school is too big, they are newcomers, they dare not walk around when they see the intersection, and they are afraid that they will get the wrong meaning when there are signs, so they have to be guided by someone to feel at ease.
Therefore, Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen were regarded as life-saving straws. After answering the first question for directions, they were unable to take another step inside the school and were directly blocked at the gate.
Even if the two of them kept explaining that they were not school employees, no one listened to them. It was not until a school teacher came that they let everyone disperse.
A teacher glanced at Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou, and asked in surprise, "Which department are you from? I don't think I've seen you before."
If Xiang Chen didn't look too young to be a teacher, he should have asked you what you teach.
Xu Hengzhou looked helpless: "I'm a student who came to report, this is my younger brother, we showed people the way, and we were surrounded."
If he had known that coming here without luggage would be the end, he would rather bring a big bag here, for the sake of convenience.
The teacher was also amused: "You haven't signed up yet, go, let's take you to sign up first."
Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen left with this teacher. After chatting with this teacher on the way, they realized that this teacher turned out to be Xu Hengzhou's future professional subject teacher, and they met in advance. He had a good impression of Xu Hengzhou, which was a surprise. happiness.
After successfully registering, the teacher went to work on his own work, Xiang Chen and Xu Hengzhou received the keys and the things issued by the school, and went to see the dormitory.
There is no military training for freshmen at this moment, and it is not like later schools that will distribute bedding and the like, so what they receive are two basins, two towels and a ceramic jar, and Xiang Chen takes these things by himself.
Xu Hengzhou's dormitory is on the third floor, neither high nor low. The building is not too old, but it is not new either. The dormitory is an eight-person room, with four bunk beds, six desks placed together in the middle of the room, and two desks placed together next to the window.
Xu Hengzhou took a look after entering the door, his face was expressionless, but Xiang Chen knew that he should not be satisfied, but there was nothing he could do about it, the current conditions were like this, and he had to live in the school for a while.
The two of them got close and came early, and there was no one else in the dormitory. After Xiang Chen asked Xu Hengzhou which bed he wanted to sleep in, he put all his basins on the top bunk near the window that he had chosen, and then the two went back to bed. Go home to pack the bedding.
Two thick quilts laid out, Xu Hengzhoup; They are the first class to resume the college entrance examination. They can't even skip a grade. The professor cherishes his talents and opens a small class for him, wishing to teach him all his knowledge.
Privately, Xu Hengzhou is also trying to find ways to make money. The money in his hands is still too little. Before the opportunity comes next year, he needs to prepare enough capital.
Xiang Chen knew his plan, so he must contribute the little money he had saved. Xu Hengzhou did not refuse this time. Although it was not bad, he would be happier if he accepted Xiang Chen.
Sure enough, seeing that he accepted, Xiang Chen seemed relieved. Not only did he not feel distressed, but he was very happy, thinking that he could finally help Xu Hengzhou a little.
In the second half of 1978, freshmen enrolled, in fact, only half a year later than the first one. This time, the college entrance examination policy was adjusted. The age limit for candidates was less than 30 years old, and many older candidates lost their chances.
In fact, during the first college entrance examination, many candidates over the age of 30 passed the exam. In Xu Hengzhou's dormitory, there was a 34-year-old elder brother. It is said that the child is about to graduate from junior high school, which is also admirable.
In this school year, Xiang Chen became the study committee member of the class, and Xu Hengzhou began to work as a teaching assistant. There was a shortage of teachers in the school, especially after the new batch of students came in. Xu Hengzhou taught several basic courses to the seventh and eighth students.
In the winter of 1978, Gu Yunzhi was hired by the Foreign Language Department of Capital University, and He Yuanfeng accepted the invitation of the Ministry of Commerce to work in the Ministry of Commerce.
