Chapter 184 Organizing the Household Affairs
Upon seeing this, Shen Shu called for everyone to assemble, and they lined up and marched away in formation.
Sun Dazhuang watched the students come and go like the wind, scratched his head, and looked at Jiang Feng, "Battalion Commander, what do you mean?"
"They're probably going to pick up their luggage to move over."
Sun Dazhuang was utterly shocked and exclaimed, "What?!"
No wonder he was surprised. The dormitories they had arranged had been disliked by the students. They complained that the windows were drafty and the beds were too hard. Some of the more delicate students cried after just one night and insisted on going home.
But they had done their best; there were no better houses available in the community.
This year's students not only didn't complain, but also volunteered to live in the dilapidated house. Captain Shen is really something; in just a few days, he's trained these pampered kids to be somewhat like soldiers!
Actually, it wasn't just Shen Shu who intentionally guided her, but also Lin Xi's role model. That nine-year-old girl didn't complain about the hardship or fatigue, and you're so much older than her, how can you be so shameless?
Lin Xi is so righteous, sensible and kind-hearted, are you not even as good as a child?
So when they saw Lin Xi go to help without saying a word, everyone felt a surge of enthusiasm and rushed to submit their requests to help.
Li Xiaonuan was the first to suggest staying here. Why should the soldiers have to move out during their military training?
With one call, a hundred responses followed. As Class One took the lead, the other classes were not to be outdone. They could break through, but they would endure it for a week and then go back. They couldn't back down at this time. They were inferior to Class One in everything, and they couldn't be worse than Class One in this aspect!
And so the students of No. 1 Middle School moved into the old bungalow. Jiang Feng and the others took their bedding and went back to the dormitory building. However, they felt sorry for the children and sent them a lot of quilts because the house was drafty and would be cold at night.
Shen Shu originally planned to train them in the evening, but seeing that the students had performed well during the day and had done a lot of work, he let them sleep peacefully for one night. That was the only night; after that, they never had a good night's sleep again.
As dawn broke and everyone was still fast asleep, Lin Xi had already gotten up and started reading.
She anticipated that these next few days would be very busy, so she had to make the most of every moment to study.
The bell rang, and the sound of running exercises came from outside. Lin Xi closed her book and woke up her roommates.
Li Xiaonuan crawled out of bed, and as soon as she got out, she saw a furry mouse crawling out from under the bed. Her face turned pale instantly, and she jumped up, shouting, "My God! A mouse! A mouse!"
Everyone in the dormitory immediately perked up and jumped onto their beds, too scared to move. Even the usually bold Jian hope was terrified.
Only Lin Xi chased after the rat, stepped on its tail, picked it up and threw it out the window, and calmly said, "It's alright now."
Jian hope's eyes widened, and she gave a thumbs up. "Xiao Xi, it has to be you. Aren't you afraid of anything?"
She increasingly felt that although Lin Xi was younger than all of them, she was more mature than any of them. Apart from her youthful appearance, she didn't look like a child at all.
Lin Xi thought for a moment, "I'm afraid I won't get a perfect score."
That means I can't go home anymore.
Jian hope and the others were unaware of Lin Xi's agreement with the principal, so this answer was both unexpected and seemingly reasonable.
Yes, if it weren't for getting a perfect score, why would she study so hard? Xiaoxi is so pitiful. It must be her parents who forced her to study. Her parents are too cruel. Xiaoxi is already excellent enough, yet they still put so much pressure on her.
Lin Xi didn't notice the pitying and sympathetic looks from everyone, otherwise she would have definitely offered a more detailed explanation.
The familiar whistle rang out, and Jianxi and the others didn't have time to ask any questions. They immediately put on their clothes and ran downstairs.
Once everyone had gathered, Shen Shu led them directly to the dormitory building.
Everyone was doing their morning exercises; the building was completely empty.
Chen Liang pushed open the dormitory door. "Take a good look. I don't expect you to reach this level, but you should at least be halfway there."
The dormitory was so clean it looked like no one had ever lived there. The sheets were perfectly wrinkle-free, and all the quilts were folded into neat squares like tofu blocks, all stacked in one direction like soldiers in formation.
The same goes for toothbrush cups; even the toothbrush heads are placed facing the same direction.
Every detail is filled with discipline and rigor.
After the tour, Shen Shu led everyone back to the bungalow area. "The instructors taught them how to fold their blankets. They will go back to their dormitories to tidy up their belongings. Breakfast will be served when they are all tidy."
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving the students with rumbling stomachs.
Each instructor took out a quilt, placed it on the clean open ground, and began tidying it up while giving instructions.
Everyone studied extremely hard; if they couldn't learn it, they wouldn't get to eat breakfast.
After teaching three times, Chen Liang glanced at his watch and said, "Go back to the dorm and tidy up now. I'll check them one by one in ten minutes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the students rushed back to their dormitories.
Everyone organized their toothbrush and wardrobe well, and the bed sheets were barely smoothed out, but the quilts just couldn't be folded properly no matter what.
Lin Xi had participated in many military training sessions in her previous life, and with her photographic memory, she was the first to fold a perfect square by following the steps one by one.
I then helped my roommates who were in a panic to tidy up, and we finally finished in ten minutes, making it the first dormitory to pass the test.
But the other dormitories weren't so lucky; they were met with a severe scolding from Chen Liang.
Hearing the roars that seemed to come from near and far, Lin Xi rubbed her empty stomach and said to Li Xiaonuan and the others, "I'll go help them, otherwise I don't know when we'll get to eat."
Li Xiaonuan nodded, "Let's go together."
When I arrived at the dormitory next door, the girls were folding their blankets, their faces covered in sweat.
Lin Xi walked over and said, "First, flatten the blanket, make sure all four corners are extended, fold it in half, fold it in half again, then press the folds firmly with your palms and pinch the corners into right angles..."
Under Lin Xi's small hands, the soft, floppy blanket was transformed into a perfectly square block of tofu in no time.
The girl next to her covered her mouth in surprise, "Oh my god, Lin Xi, yours is exactly the same as the instructor's! You're amazing!"
Li Xiaonuan felt proud and raised her head, "Of course, there's nothing our Xiaoxi can't learn."
The short-haired girl behind her kept following along, asking, "Lin Xi, do you think my folding is okay?"
Although it doesn't have Lin Xidie's square shape, at least it has edges and corners.
"Sure, you learn quickly."
The girl smiled after receiving the praise. She didn't know why she was so happy to be praised by a little girl. Maybe it was because Lin Xi was excellent at everything she did, and being recognized by such an excellent person was a very fulfilling thing.
Lin Xi went from dormitory to dormitory helping out, with Li Xiaonuan and the others following behind like little shadows.
Actually, they didn't know how to fold folding either, and they couldn't help with anything, but they were happy to hear others praise Xiaoxi and to see the envious looks they received.
Normally, Lin Xi only interacts with a few people in her dormitory. She doesn't talk much to others and is rather serious, so everyone thinks she's not easy to approach.
People were whispering among themselves, saying that the little girl wasn't so aloof after all, and that she was getting cuter and cuter.
