school started
The Imperial Capital University will start in a few days. According to Chen Yu’s previous plan, she should have already registered at the university in advance. However, now that she has returned to the Chen family, there is no need to be so anxious.
"Shi Shi, are you planning to live in the school or live at home?" Chen's mother asked during breakfast.
Chen Yu naturally wanted to live in the school, but when he turned around and met Chen's mother with a reluctant look, he was immediately unable to say anything.
"Of course I live in the school." Mayor Chen noticed his daughter's embarrassment and said to himself, "It's time for college to make friends, so I have less time to live and have stayed at home and have less contact with classmates."
"That's right." Although Chen's mother could understand, she still felt a little reluctant to leave her home after she had just been retrieved.
"Mom." Chen Yu comforted, "My school is not far away. From now on, I will come back to live every weekend. If you miss me, you can also come to the school to see me."
"Okay, okay, then you have to go home every weekend."
"Yes." Chen Yu nodded heavily to Chen's mother, making Chen's mother happy.
Sure enough, my daughter is the caring little cotton jacket. Mayor Chen ate one more bun and turned to his son and said, "You will come back every weekend in the future."
"I'll come back when there is no case." Chen Yang is a policeman. After graduating from the police academy, he entered the criminal police brigade and often lives in the dormitory for work convenience and rarely goes home. This time, because he had to pick up Chen Yu, he had a rare long vacation, but he soon had to go back to work.
"Yes." Mayor Chen also understood the nature of his son's work and did not force it.
Chen Yu waited until Chen's father had almost finished eating, and then hesitated to ask what he had thought about all night yesterday: "Dad, can I ask you something?"
Mayor Chen looked at Chen Yu in surprise. This was the first time she took the initiative to ask questions after she returned home. She became interested immediately. She put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked at her daughter, and asked gently: "What's the question?"
"Just... do you know how much it costs to build a mountain road?" Chen Yu blinked his big eyes and looked at Mayor Chen in anticipation.
"Build a road?" Chen's mother looked at her daughter in confusion, and Chen Yang was also a little curious.
"Is it for Okimura?" Although Mayor Chen did not go to Okimura to pick up his daughter in person, he knew Chen Yu's growth environment clearly. So when Chen Yu asked him how much it cost to build a road, Mayor Chen immediately thought of Okimura.
Chen Yang also guessed at this time that when he went into the mountain to find Chen Yu, he had been riding a motorcycle for ten hours to reach Okimura. He knew the best of the road conditions there.
"Yeah." Chen Yu explained, "It was too much trouble to go to the city from Damu Village. When I was a child, I went to school in the next town. I had to get up at five o'clock every morning and walk two and a half hours of mountain road to get there. Later, when I was in junior high school and high school, I had to live in the school and I could only go back once a month."
"Actually, Damu Village is still very close to the city, with several mountains in the middle. The village chief said that as long as the winding mountain road is built, the people in Damu Village will be more convenient to enter and exit in the future, and the lives of the people in the village will be better." Chen Yu said, "And don't everyone in the city like to travel now? The scenery in our Damu Village is particularly good, and maybe we can develop the tourism industry."
"When I was admitted to college, I promised the village chief that if I could make money in the future, I would find a way to help the village build roads." Thinking that I could make money now, Chen Yu said excitedly, "So I wanted to ask, how much is it, so that I can make plans."
Chen Yuwu was so excited that he didn't notice that the other three people on the dining table suddenly became heavier. When she finished speaking, Chen's mother was already crying in discomfort.
"Mom, why are you crying?" Chen Yu was shocked.
"When you were a child, you had to walk two and a half hours of mountain road to school. Is the mountain road dangerous? Are there any adults following you?" Chen's mother became more and more sad as she said, as if she saw Chen Yu, a six or seven-year-old, who was a little man crossing mountains and ridges to study before dawn.
"Mom, mom, don't cry, am I fine now?" Chen Yu understood. Chen's mother felt sorry for her and felt guilty. She didn't feel that she was suffering from school when she was a child, but she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Chen's mother being sad.
Chen Yang handed over the napkin, and Chen Yu pulled out two pieces to help Chen's mother wipe her tears.
"Yes, isn't the child doing well now? Stop crying." Mayor Chen felt a little sad when he heard this, but he was much more rational than Chen's mother.
Mayor Chen knew that when Chen Yu was taken to Aoki Province by human traffickers, he fell ill before he found the buyer. The traffickers found several rural doctors to see him, and they all said that it was not cured. Later, the traffickers threw Chen Yu into the mountains for fear of causing trouble. They happened to be picked up by Mr. Wu, who was going out to do rituals for others, and brought them back to Damu Village to raise.
Therefore, the people in Omu Village are kind to Chen Yu. Chen Yu can remember to give back to Omu Village now, thinking about building roads for them. Mayor Chen is both proud and ashamed of his daughter.
"If you just build a road in the village, it won't cost much, but if you want to build a winding mountain road connecting the city, then it's not something you can do alone." Mayor Chen looked at his daughter and explained patiently.
Chen Yu didn't know much about this, "But the village chief said that it was obviously going to be built ten years ago, because there was not enough funds, so there was no road to build it."
"It may be that the local government had plans ten years ago, but it was stranded for some reason." Mayor Chen speculated.
"Then how can I build the road?" Chen Yu said anxiously.
Seeing that his daughter was anxious, Chen's mother immediately said, "Jianxun, do you know anyone in Aoki Province? Please ask your daughter."
Mayor Chen looked at his wife and frowned in embarrassment.
"It's not that you are asking you to do something else, so you can't ask?" Chen's mother thought that this matter would not violate any principles, so she just asked, and there should be no problem.
Mayor Chen met his daughter's expectant eyes, thought for a while, nodded and said, "I'll ask someone to inquire."
"Thank you dad!" Chen Yu was very happy immediately.
Mayor Chen stood up, reached out and rubbed his daughter's head, and said in a warm voice: "I'm going to work."
Time flies quickly, and it is the beginning of school. Chen's mother originally wanted to send her daughter to school in person, but because she had to go to another place for a few days because she had something to do, she had to give her the things she prepared in advance to her daughter, and told Chen Yu to remember to apply sunscreen during military training so that she would not get darker.
Mayor Chen has a lot of trouble every day, so he naturally has no time to send his daughter to school. In the end, the task of sending Chen Yu fell on Chen Yang. Chen Yang took leave and came back from the team. Who knew that as soon as the car arrived at the gate of the Imperial Capital University, he received a call from the captain, saying that the case he had been investigating had a major breakthrough and asked him to go back.
Chen Yang looked at Chen Yu with an apology: "Sorry, brother can't report with you. I'll let Shaohui and Qin Yi come to pick you up."
"It's okay, I'm such an adult, I can handle it myself." Chen Yu smiled and shook his head.
"Then I'll leave first." The case was urgent, and Chen Yang didn't dare to stay for too long. He gave a few instructions and drove away.
Chen Yu waited until the car drove away, and then dragged his suitcase to the university. Following the instructions, he asked several more people on the way. Chen Yu completed the admission registration alone and found the girls' dormitory where he was.
When we arrived at the dormitory, there were already two girls inside. One was round-faced and cute, named Fang Feifei, and the other was tall, named Zhang Muwan. Both of them were natives from the imperial capital.
The three of them exchanged names. Fang Feifei knew that Chen Yu was also from the imperial capital, so she asked in surprise: "Chen Yu, did you go on vacation to the beach during the summer vacation, so she was so dark."
"No, I'm in Aoki Province during the summer vacation." Chen Yu didn't want to mention his "complex" life experience to others, so he avoided the important things.
"Aoki Province is in a subtropical area, where the sun shines for a long time, and the people there are generally darker." Zhang Muwan joked, "I believe it if you say you are from Aoki Province."
"It can also be said that my grandfather is there, and I often come to see him." Chen Yu explained.
"I see."
The three of them were talking when the last roommate in the dormitory arrived, and a beautiful woman with fair skin and beautiful appearance in a floral dress walked in with two boys who helped carry their luggage.
"I'm here, thank you senior." The beauty smiled and thanked the two boys who helped.
"Schoolmate Youyou, come to us if you have something to do." The two boys left reluctantly in the beautiful woman's sweet smile.
"I'm finally leaving." The beauty took a deep breath, turned around and met two pairs of teasing and curious eyes. Han You thought that this should be her roommate, so she smiled and introduced herself generously, "My name is Han You, you can call me You You, you are my roommate, I'm very happy to know you."
The four of them introduced themselves again. Fang Feifei was more lively and grabbed Han You and asked, "Youyou, are those two seniors interested in you just now?"
"What's interesting? It's just that I'm not convenient to take my luggage by myself. Didn't you help me with my seniors?" Han You asked.
Zhang Muwan and Fang Feifei smiled and didn't say anything. This trick of carrying luggage for their juniors while school was about to start, is indeed very common.
"No." Only Chen Yu shook his head very honestly.
The three of them turned to look at Chen Yu, met Chen Yu's dark skin, and silently showed a sympathetic look.
"Maybe I have fewer things," Chen Yu thought to himself.
"That's right!" When dealing with new friends, the three of them were very gentle and did not expose the truth.
The four girls chatted for a while, and seeing that the time was almost over, they decided to go out for lunch together and then stroll around the campus. As soon as the four of them walked out of the dormitory gate, Chen Yu heard someone calling his name.
"Xi Shi."
"Shaohui, Qin Yi." Chen Yu turned around and saw two handsome guys standing at the door of the dormitory. He walked over with surprise, "Why are you here?"
"Didn't Brother Chen Yang say you are waiting for us at the school gate? Why are you not here and you don't answer the phone?" Shaohui asked gritted his teeth.
"Ah?" Chen Yu took out his cell phone from his bag. Sure enough, he saw that several of the phones on it were not answering, and he immediately said with guilt, "I muted my cell phone, so I didn't hear it."
"Forget it, you're fine." Shaohui looked over Chen Yu and looked at the three girls behind her who kept secretly glanced at him and Qin Yi, and waved with a smile, "Hello, you are Xi Shi's roommates, should you have lunch together?"
Chen Yu turned around and saw three girls who kept nodding without any reservations.

In the Lou family courtyard, Lou Ming was having a video call with Master Mao.
"Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the Imperial Capital University." Master Mao asked.
"Yes." Lou Ming nodded.
"I can't go there this time, but I have someone prepare everything for you in advance. You can just sit on the rostrum at that time." Master Mao said.
Lou Ming frowned, raised his hand to look at the jade buckle on his left wrist wearing a red rope, and said worriedly: "Other forget it this time, you are not here, and if something happens, you can't control it."
"Lou Ming, the opening ceremony of the Imperial Capital University, Wenqu Star entered the world, and auspicious aura enveloped the entire campus. It is the only opportunity you can completely release evil spirits, and you cannot miss it." Master Mao said seriously.
Lou Ming remained silent. Of course, he knew that this was his only chance, but Master Mao could not go to the Imperial Capital University with him this year. If something unexpected happens and no one will deal with it, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Lou Ming, I will let my disciples go over. As long as the auspicious energy is together, you can take off the jade buttons, and there will be no surprises." Master Mao comforted.
"Okay." Lou Ming finally nodded.
