"That's good, it's quiet here," Sun Rongfang said to her daughter.
Xie Wanying nodded in agreement.
They unlocked the door and entered the dormitory room, which had two bunk beds for four people without being cramped. It was unclear whether the other freshmen hadn't arrived yet or had come earlier because no one else could be seen inside.
One of the bunk beds had a mattress and a mosquito net hanging over it, indicating that someone was already living there.
Xie Wanying chose a top bunk among the remaining beds because the top bunk was quieter and more suitable for studying. She and her mother made the bed together, arranging the sheets, mattress, and pillows.
Items like buckets and washbasins needed to be purchased at the small convenience store within the school. The mother and daughter planned to buy the other necessities there while on their way to eat at the school cafeteria.
