There are many colleges in Condon University. In later generations, there were more than thirty colleges in Condon University. However, at the beginning of the 20th century, there were still only a dozen colleges. Among these colleges, St. Louis College has the longest history. It has a long history, but in order to be strong, it must be St. Ivan's College, because St. Ivan's College is a purely aristocratic college with a history of more than 600 years. In Condon University, the finances of each college are independent. The aristocratic graduates of St. Ivan's College often donate to the college, and the territory of St. Ivan's College is also the largest in the entire Condon University, so St. Ivan's College is the most powerful.
But no matter what college they are, they all had a common problem in the early 20th century, that is, these colleges did not recruit female undergraduates, and the only colleges that recruited female graduate students were St. Louis College and Peter Weiss College, and Peter Weiss College Si College is one of the colleges with the lowest strength in Kangton.
The college that Chen Yibing studied at is Luo Conner College. It is the only college among the men in Condon University that only recruits women. There are only more than 300 people in the college from undergraduate to graduate students. Although the slogan of the college is to accept students from all over the world, elite women, but in fact, the women who can study here are basically aristocratic girls, especially the majority of aristocratic girls from their own country, because this academy was originally founded to provide a place to study for aristocratic girls who want to receive education. , so the student situation here is conceivable.
Everything went smoothly for Chen Yibin under the guidance of Huang Weitian. It was basically impossible to drive a car in the center of the university town in Kangton Town, so Chen Yibin and Huang Weitian both rode bicycles. The bicycles were at this time It is not a very popular means of transportation in China, because bicycles cost 200 to 300 yuan in China, and they are also a luxury item for ordinary workers.
But for a young lady like Huang Weitian, it is a very fashionable thing. At Condon University, there are long distances between various colleges and classrooms. Although there is only morning time for classes every day, But every student needs to shuttle between the classroom and the college, so in Kangton Town, it is a very common scene to see Kangton students carrying a single-backed cowhide schoolbag riding bicycles through the town.
When the two of them passed by the front lawn of St. Ivan College, they saw a rococo-style clock tower standing in the middle of the beautiful green field from a distance. There was a huge brass bell in the clock tower. A middle-aged man in a black tuxedo was ringing the big bell. At the same time, in the corridor surrounding the front hall, there were many students standing noisily at the beginning. When the bell rang, these students The men who usually behave like gentlemen ran out with all their strength. Some of these people were running and cursing, some couldn't run even halfway, and some male students in tuxedos stood in a row. Someone outside the corridor shouted: "Run quickly!"
As the bell rang one after another, the runners ran even harder towards the end of the corridor, but so far no one has been able to reach the end. Not only the students of the college next to the corridor were anxious. , even students from other colleges came over to complain, and the scene was very joyful.
No man can run to the finish line until the bell stops. Huang Weitian complained: "If you want to run to the finish line before the bell stops, the length of the corridor in their college is as long as it is, unless you are a professional long-distance running champion. Otherwise, it would be impossible to whip these gentlemen from behind with a whip."
Seeing that Chen Yiping was interested, she introduced the significance of this group of people running, saying that this was the traditional rule of St. Ivan College. It was said that it had been passed down for hundreds of years, and every new student who entered the school Everyone has to go through such a run, but in the past few years, I have never heard of any freshman who can be so awesome and run to the finish line before the bell stops. Gradually, it has become a joy for everyone to watch. The fact that these aristocratic children who usually despise their common people are so careless about their image is quite entertaining in itself.
Huang Weitian continued to pull Chen Yibing towards Luo Kangna College. Luo Kangna College was established relatively recently, so the college’s area is not very large, but its location can be considered as one of these small colleges. The better among them, because it is surrounded by the Noble College of St. Ivan and the College of St. Louis, and the Condon River that runs through the town separates Roconna from the College of St. Ivan, and between the two colleges there is A bridge, this is the Rainbow Bridge that ranks first among the ten most beautiful bridges of Condon University. It is called the Rainbow Bridge because men and women from the two colleges often cross the bridge for dates, so it has such a romantic name.
Because Rockner College is the only all-female college in Condon University, this college is also known as: Bridal College. When the entire school is made up of men, girls are particularly precious. It is also because of this unique characteristic that Roconagh College is able to stand between the two most powerful colleges even though it was founded less than 200 years ago. A piece of land was set aside for the construction of a college, and the girls in the college were particularly popular with the Kangton male students.
Huang Weitian led Chen Yibin across the Rainbow Bridge and entered Luo Conner College. The entire college is not very large. They passed through the dean's building in the front hall and the chapel building and canteen of the second hospital. The third courtyard is the dormitory building for their students.
The dormitory building in Luo Conner is relatively new, only used for more than 100 years, but the college still spends a lot of money on building maintenance every year. This is different from other colleges maintaining century-old teaching buildings and libraries. It's the same. In short, antique buildings are still in use here.
There are probably less than 100 freshmen in Rockana this year. The dormitory here is for every two people in a dormitory. Each freshman can have an independent room, as well as a common living room, public bathroom and kitchen. Chen Yiping's bedmate is a local girl from Schaffer with dark brown hair.
The girl’s name is Susanna Bilson. According to Huang Weitian’s introduction later, this Bailson girl should be a girl from Duke Bailson’s family. As for whether she is a direct relative or a collateral relative, it is unknown. , but this Baiersen girl is a pure aristocrat, there is no doubt about it.
When Susanna entered the dormitory, she was followed by four people. Chen Yibing thought it was relatives coming to send them to school. However, Susanna waved her hand, and the four people filed in. The two men and two women who came in looked like they were Servants, two male servants carried her huge luggage bag, and two maids started cleaning in a well-trained manner.
Susanna's dark brown hair was permed into the most popular big curly hair. She didn't have bangs, revealing her smooth forehead. Her pupils were also dark brown. Her usual expression always pursed her lips, showing a pair of smiles. She was impatient with all this. When she saw that there was only one bathroom here, she held her forehead and showed an expression of 'Oh my God, I have been abandoned by the world'.
When she greeted Chen Yibing, although she stretched out her delicate hands and said: "Hello, I am Susanna Bairson." But Chen Yibing felt that she must be eager to find a place to wash her hands immediately. After a while, it seemed that she was a racist again... Later facts proved that Chen Yibing guessed wrong. Susanna was not a racist, but a civilian discriminator.
Chen Yibing introduced: "My name is Kristina Chen." The name Kristina was given by her second brother.
Suzanne opened her mouth and said, "Oh, hello, Chris."
When Chen Yibin heard this, she smiled slightly. Miss Baiersen's expression that she obviously didn't take her seriously betrayed her every minute. No matter how polite she made, it was useless, but Chen Yibin has lived so long. (In her previous life), she didn’t take these things too seriously. She just smiled politely and asked her if there was anything she could do to help. Miss Baiersen said: “No, as long as we have these servants, it will be enough.” ”
Chen Yibing shrugged and went back to the room to lie down for a while. It was in the evening that he got up to prepare for dinner. When he came out, he saw that their living room had basically been changed by Susanna. It turned out to be simple. Two wooden chairs and two small tables turned into a large white table with rococo-style curved carvings. There were also photo frames of the young lady on the table, as well as a few books and other things.
The small table that Chen Yibing had packed up was also gone. It was replaced by a table similar to the eldest lady’s style, but one-third smaller than hers. Even the chairs were replaced by two. The same white armchair. The original gray cloth-covered sofa in the living room has gone. It has been replaced by a large white curved-leg carved sofa of the same series. There are also some velvet cushions on it. Not to mention the small coffee table and so on.
What is even more exaggerated is that there is a half-length oil painting of this young lady on the wall. From now on, every time Chen Yibing opens the door of the dormitory, what she will see is a large half-length portrait of this young lady...
Even someone like Chen Yiping, who considers herself well-informed, was a little confused and asked: "Where are those furniture?"
The eldest lady naturally replied: "Throw it away, it's so dirty."
In Chen Yibing's opinion, the log desk has been polished smooth and shiny by the schoolmates who once lived here, giving off a beautiful wood texture, and the simple gray cloth-covered sofa is also very comfortable to sit on.
However, Chen Yibing was really impressed by this young lady. She only narrowed her eyes for a while and then she was tortured like this.
The eldest lady just changed into a white dress and said: "I ordered this set of furniture in advance, and it is the same set as the bed in my room."
Chen Yibing then looked at her room. The door to her room was not closed yet, and she found that the original small wooden bed inside was gone, replaced by this luxurious white soft leather bed, with curtains and sheets. Needless to say, they are all kinds of satin and lace, completely in the style of a young lady. The most exaggerated thing is that there is a round luxurious curtain hanging on her bed, the kind that hangs on the wall and hangs down very luxuriously. In Chen Yibing's opinion, the decorations of the gauze tent are basically standard items for princesses.
The eldest lady looked at Chen Yibing with a dumbfounded look. Chen Yibing, a country bumpkin, was frightened, and she even kindly explained a few words: "I can't sleep on that kind of small bed."
Chen Yiping is: Hehehehe.
The eldest lady said again: "No need to thank me, I just changed a table for you with a little effort."
Chen Yiping was stupid again. The eldest lady didn't care about her answer and went back to the house to tidy up herself.
Chen Yibing originally wanted to wait for the young lady, but when she thought about why people might dislike her, she decided not to offend others, so she went to the cafeteria, the place Huang Weitian had introduced to her before.
When Chen Yixing enrolled in school, she paid several fees, including not only tuition fees for Condon University, but also tuition fees for Roconna College, rent for dormitories, and a fixed meal fee. This meal fee Students had to pay regardless of whether they were eating or not. Such a round of payment cost a small 2,000 pounds, which made her understand deeply why girls from ordinary families did not come to study after the academy was opened because of the cost. It's obviously not something that ordinary people can afford. It's only one month, which is half the size of the small bungalow she just bought in Adrian Wharf. One more semester will fill the entire small bungalow. It seems like she's really not working hard. Can not be done.
It turned out that the food in the cafeteria was a big surprise to her. Among all the expenses, the college's fixed meal fee was second only to the college fee. She didn't expect it to be so unpalatable...
While Chen Yiping was struggling with the fried fish and chicken pieces in front of her, she heard a cry of exclamation not far away: "Is this for pigs?"
It turned out that the eldest lady arrived.
