Rebirth of the Wild Age

The staff dormitories in Fudan are very simple and extremely crowded. Most of them were built in the 1950s, and some were even left over from the period of the Republic of China. The new faculty dormitory is still under construction, and even if it is completed, there is no such thing as a small lecturer like Lin Zhuoyun.

The No. 7 teaching and staff dormitory where Lin Zhuoyun lived was built in the 1930s. It was originally a military camp built by the Japanese invaders with mud and bricks. After decades of vicissitudes, the walls are full of cracks, the house is dark and damp, and the floors, doors and windows are severely damaged.

Sri Lanka is a humble room, but I am virtuous.

Under such difficult housing conditions, there are many famous teachers living in the faculty dormitory.

At the beginning of this year, a large family moved out collectively, and finally two rooms were vacated, which became the residence of the newly recruited young teachers.

Lin Zhuoyun hummed a song and hurried upstairs, opened the door and went in, only to find that her roommate was still working at her desk. She smiled and put down the bag: "Linlin, I brought you some snacks."

"Thank you," Zhang Lin stretched and stood up, putting her arms around Lin Zhuoyun and smiling, "Zhuoyun, you are so kind!"

Zhang Lin is 24 years old and just graduated from graduate school this year. She applied for a public scholarship to study abroad, but failed, so she stayed at the school to apply for a lecturer, but failed, so she had to work as a teaching assistant while studying for a Ph.D. She wasn't eligible to live in the faculty dormitory, but she had a good relationship with her tutor, and it happened that there was a vacancy in the faculty dormitory, so she was arranged to live in the same room with Lin Zhuoyun.

At first, Zhang Lin was very jealous of Lin Zhuoyun. She is a graduate student from a prestigious school, but she can only be a teaching assistant. And Lin Zhuoyun is just a general key undergraduate graduate, who is younger than her, and somehow became a lecturer at Fudan University.

What's more, since Fudan only recruited three more lecturers this year and the number of places is limited, Zhang Lin always thought that Lin Zhuoyun squeezed her out.

Most of the semester has passed, and with the passage of time, this jealousy has gradually dissipated.

First of all, Lin Zhuoyun's knowledge level is not lower than that of Zhang Lin, plus he has taught for a year and has the title of lecturer, which naturally brings advantages when applying for the job, not based on connections. Secondly, Lin Zhuoyun has a good personality and is warm-hearted. Zhang Lin really can't hate her, just like people don't hate a harmless little white rabbit.

"That Allen sent you back just now?" Zhang Lin inquired.

Lin Zhuoyun said, "No."

Zhang Lin smiled and said: "I still said no, I have seen it all. He even put on the coat for you, and you returned the coat to him when he left."

"That's not Li Yalun, it's a friend of mine." Lin Zhuoyun explained.

"What friend? Also American?" Zhang Lin asked quickly.

"100% Chinese!" Lin Zhuoyun said.

Zhang Lin was furious: "Are you stupid? Alan is so handsome, and he is still an American, you have to seize this opportunity! If you marry, you can also introduce me to an American man, and then we will immigrate to the United States together. "

"What's wrong with living in China?" Lin Zhuoyun asked.

"The difference is huge!" Zhang Lin was quite excited. "The United States is rich, democratic, and advanced. It is 10,000 times stronger than China in terms of material and spiritual aspects!"

"Maybe." Lin Zhuoyun didn't like to argue with others.

Before 2000, there were too many people like Zhang Lin, who exhausted their family savings and went to the United States to wash dishes at their own expense.

In the 1980s, it was popular to "marry out". Girls in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou were willing to marry old men in the United States, just like Chinese rural girls rushing to marry cripples in the city.

In the 1990s, the country allowed people to go abroad at their own expense, and so there was another wave of going abroad.

In fact, the number of people sent abroad by the government is too small. From 1978 to 1996, only 130,000 people were sent abroad by the government in 18 years. Among them were not only college students, but also government officials and employees of state-owned enterprises. Ordinary people want to go abroad, "marrying out" is the best choice, while college students are looking forward to "reading out".

In fact, Zhang Lin has already "read out", but she can only pay for it at her own expense, and her family has no money.

After Lin Zhuoyun washed, she took off her clothes and got into bed, reading a book by the dim light.

Zhang Lin sat on the edge of the bed, leaned over and asked, "Are you really not interested in that Allen?"

"It's really nothing, ordinary friends, we just got along." Lin Zhuoyun said.

"Then you," Zhang Lin hesitated, then smiled, "Can you give him to me?"

Lin Zhuoyun said: "If you like it, go after it."

Zhang Lin said: "I mean, you ask him out for me, and then you excuse that you have something to do...you understand."

"This is not good." Lin Zhuoyun was a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong? I'll just chat with him, and continue talking if we can, and let it go if we can't," Zhang Lin shook Lin Zhuoyun's arm, "Sister Lin, good sister, just help me."

"Okay, okay, next weekend, I'll ask him out for you." Lin Zhuoyun could only compromise.

"marvelous!"

Zhang Lin held her hands together and began to look forward to the future: "When I go to the United States, I will go to Princeton to study for a Ph. D. After graduation, I will work in a big company. I have to buy a car first, and then I have to buy a house. I am fed up with the house I live in now." !"

Lin Zhuoyun suddenly felt that these sisters were a little disgusted.

If it was Song Weiyang, he would definitely be more tolerant towards Zhang Lin, and he would also understand this woman's xenophobia mentality.

The gap between China and the United States is too big!

Children in the 21st century are accustomed to KFC, but in the early 1990s, there were local tyrants who chose to hold their weddings at KFC.

In this day and age, going out of the country once is equivalent to plating a layer of gold. When you come back with a graduation certificate from Yeji University, government agencies, private enterprises and state-owned enterprises are rushing to ask for it. When making reports and publicity, the government and enterprises will even specifically indicate how many overseas returnees they have.

The social atmosphere is like this, how much can you demand of ordinary people?

A lot of women are not cheap, they are smart. Find a foreign old man to marry, and divorce when they stabilize. Those foreign old men are just a springboard, a tool they can use.

At least Zhang Lin still has a bottom line. The Li Yalun she fancy is a young and handsome guy, and she didn't randomly find an old foreign man to marry.

Self-excited for a while, Zhang Lin suddenly asked: "By the way, who was the man who sent you back just now? Luckily, sisters, they didn't say anything about their secret relationship!"

"I'm not in a relationship, just ordinary friends." Lin Zhuoyun laughed.

"Still said no," Zhang Lin pointed at Lin Zhuoyun, "Look at how happy you are smiling. Whenever I mention that man, you laugh. It's obvious that the heart of spring is sprouting. Meow meow, which little wild cat is calling Chun ah?"

"Your name is Chun!" Lin Zhuoyun smiled and threw the book out.

"It's fine if you don't say anything," Zhang Lin took the book and threw it back, stood up and said, "By the time you hold the wedding, maybe I have already gone abroad, and I will definitely come back by plane to attend your wedding!"

That night, Lin Zhuoyun tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, her mind was full of Song Weiyang's playful smile.

Lin Zhuoyun didn't have Song Weiyang's class until Tuesday, but she couldn't wait for Monday. When school was over in the morning, I ran to the door of the classroom and shouted: "Song Weiyang, there is a problem with your homework, come out with me!"
