Chapter 5 - From Palace Luxury to Dorm Life

The New Year's Day holiday lasted three days. When Fang Yuci traveled back to the modern era, it was already Day 2. She tried to show off her cooking skills to her mother at home but failed and changed her hairstyle, and another day had passed.

On the last day of the holiday, Fang Yuci was very busy. She first went to the mall to buy a few underwire-free bras and sports vests - her bras all had underwires, and she was used to wearing them before she traveled through time, but now she felt that they were too tight to breathe. She was used to bras made of fine cotton in ancient times, and now when choosing bras, comfort is the first priority, and she doesn't want any bras that gather or lift...

Moreover, she found that her aesthetic taste had also changed a little. She felt that breasts looked best in their natural state. She felt that push-up bras that forced out a deep cleavage, or push-up bras that made breasts appear particularly high... were all very unnatural. After changing into the underwire-free bra, she breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more comfortable. Only then did she take time to send her mobile phone and laptop to the store to have them unlocked.

When the store clerk heard that Fang Yuci had forgotten the passwords for both her phone and laptop, he looked at her suspiciously - who among the young people nowadays doesn't play with their phones and computers every day? How could she forget the password to the lock screen?

If the name on Fang Yuci's ID card was not the same as the name on the receipts for her mobile phone and notebook, the clerk would really have doubted whether this mobile phone and computer were hers. Then when the clerk helped Fang Yuci unlock the phone, he found out that Fang Yuci had also forgotten her Apple ID password.

Clerk: ...

"As long as you remember the computer unlock password, I can directly use the computer to unlock your phone; as long as you remember the Apple ID password, I can also easily help you unlock the computer... You forgot all three at once, which is a bit troublesome! How could you forget all three passwords at once? Did you lose your memory?" The clerk was a young man who liked to watch TV series and read novels and had a very creative imagination.

The clerk was joking at first, but his eyes fell on Fang Yuci's face, and he thought that the girl in front of him was indeed beautiful enough to be the heroine of novels and TV series. And not only was her appearance outstanding, but her temperament was even more outstanding. Just standing there quietly, it was impossible to ignore her. The clerk thought silently in his heart that she must have been beautiful since she was a child. The elders around her liked her, and her classmates paid attention to her. Or her family was very rich, or her parents were high-ranking officials, otherwise she would not have such a temperament.

Fang Yuci smiled at the clerk, put her finger in front of her lips, hushed, and whispered, "It's not amnesia, I just traveled through time."

Clerk: "Hahahahaha!"

The little girl is not only beautiful and has a good temperament, but also has a humorous personality. She is really charming!

After being busy for a long time, the clerk handed the mobile phone and notebook with the reset password to her with a smile on his face.

  .

After Fang Yuci returned home from the store, her mother was very surprised, "Did you really go to get it fixed? Has it been fixed?"

Fang Yuci nodded.

Yu Jingxian said in surprise, "I thought you said your phone and computer had some minor problems, which was a euphemism for getting a new phone and a new computer?"

Fang Yuci: ?

Was she such a person before she traveled through time? Hmm... it seems to be true... She was raised in the palm of her parents' hands since she was a child, and was actually quite spoiled and willful before she traveled through time.

After Yu Jingxian learned the truth, her face was filled with relief that her daughter had grown up and become sensible. Fang Yuci saw that her mother was in a good mood and asked, "Mom, can I not live in the dormitory and rent a house near the school?"

The expression on Yu Jingxian's face suddenly changed from spring-like warmth to winter-like coldness. "Rent a house? Why?"

Because she once owned the entire Kunning Palace, she felt cramped even living in a 180-square-meter home. Her university dormitory with four people was only 30 to 40 square meters... Even the palace maids who were prominent in front of Fang Yuci did not live in such a crowded place. Of course, she couldn't tell her mother about this. she said vaguely, "The dormitory at university is too crowded. It's hard to even turn around inside. And one of my roommates is jealous of me..."

Yu Jingxian immediately frowned, "Why haven't I heard you say that before? Which roommate is jealous of you? What's his name?"

Fang Yuci immediately gave the name, "Feng Zhixuan."

She actually had no idea who Feng Zhixuan was, but the [Favorability System] would not lie to her! The system's comment on Feng Zhixuan was "a college roommate who is jealous of your beauty", and Feng Zhixuan's favorability towards her was -65%!

Yu Jingxian continued to ask, "Did she target you in person? Or did she say bad things about you behind your back?"

This really stumped Fang Yuci. How could she remember all this after more than ten years? And Feng Zhixuan was jealous of her, but she might not have really done anything. Maybe she was just secretly jealous in her heart. She could only vaguely say, "It wasn't a big deal, but I could see that she was jealous of me. It's really uncomfortable to live under the same roof with her every day!"

Yu Jingxian thought for a moment, and then said to Fang Yuci, "The New Year is coming soon, and you'll be staying at home for the month-long winter vacation. Now it's almost the end of the year and your dad and I are very busy. We don't have time to rent a house with you. Why don't you be patient and wait until the beginning of the next semester? If you still want to rent a house, then go out and rent one? When the time comes, your father and I will help you pick a house near the university. You can move in after it's cleaned and tidy."

Fang Yuci saw through her mother's thoughts at a glance - her mother was still worried about her dating! She was worried that she would rent an apartment to live with her boyfriend!

After more than a decade in the harem, Fang Yuci's mind-reading skills have reached the highest level. She can accurately grasp the most elusive thoughts of the emperor. She can also guess the thoughts of the empress dowager, the former empress, and all the concubines. In comparison, her mother's thoughts are like a clear spring that can be seen through at a glance. Fang Yuci now doesn't even need to guess, she can know what her mother is thinking.

Her recent series of abnormal behaviors have made her mother worry that she is in a relationship. Her mother can still accept her being in a relationship during college, but living with her boyfriend during college is beyond her mother's bottom line. But because she didn't admit that she was in a relationship, her mother was not sure, so she planned to observe her carefully for about two months from now until the new semester started.

If she was sure that she was not in a relationship, she would allow her to rent a house in the new semester. If she found evidence of her being in a relationship, she would of course refuse her request for a house, and would control her more strictly in the future, probably checking on her every few days. Although Fang Yuci saw through her mother's thoughts at a glance, she still nodded and said, "Okay."

If she insists on renting a house right away, no matter how much she promises her mother, she will definitely be worried. It is better to follow her mother's pace and let her mother confirm that she really does not want to live together secretly, but just wants to live in a more spacious place by herself.

Fang Yuci was also a mother. If she lived with the little princess in ancient times before marriage... No, if the little princess kept a concubine in the princess's mansion before her wedding... Eh? She didn't seem to be worried at all?

After all, apart from her, the emperor, the queen mother and the prince, everyone else can only be punished by the princess. In modern times, Fang Yuci is just her parents' little princess, not a real princess, so her parents can't help but worry that she will be hurt by a scumbag.

Fang Yuci lived in ancient times and knew how rare her parents' pure and selfless love was. In order not to worry her parents, she would endure it for another month! Isn't the dormitory just a bit crowded?

——When the emperor was ill, she slept on the small couch at the foot of the emperor's dragon bed for more than a month without taking off her clothes! In the middle of the night, as long as the emperor made a little noise, often before the emperor woke up, Fang Yuci could find out where the emperor was unwell.

At least there is a bed that belongs to her in the university dormitory!

Isn't her roommate Feng Zhixuan jealous of her?

——There were dozens of concubines in the harem, who didn't envy her? From the former empress with the highest status to the maid who secretly admired the emperor, there were hundreds of women who envied her.

What could Feng Zhixuan, a college student who was born under the red flag and grew up in New China, do even if she was jealous? Could she be punished by being made to kneel? Could she be beaten with a stick? Would she dare to poison or drug her?

When you think about it this way, living in a college dormitory for a month is no big deal!

After the New Year's Day holiday, Fang Yuci returned to school with a new hairstyle, and the first thing she did was to look for the top students in their major!

Exam week is coming soon, and it will definitely be too late to memorize the books by myself. Now I can only ask for help from the top student and directly memorize the exam key points that the top student has sorted out!

If possible, Fang Yuci would also like to ask a top student to give her some tutoring and help her sort out the knowledge context of each course in person.

In ancient times, Fang Yuci was in charge of palace affairs after becoming a concubine. There were many things to do in the harem, including feeding, dressing, burning coal, and paying salaries for thousands of people... all of which were under her control. She couldn't do everything herself, so she kept several "secretaries" around her. The secretarial team consisted of palace maids, nannies, eunuchs, and concubines below her.

Every day Fang Yuci mainly listened to the oral reports of the secretariat and read the summaries and overviews compiled by the secretariat, and rarely read the original materials himself. Therefore, she felt that the same principle applied to this exam week. If she could directly review the knowledge points that the top students had sorted out and summarized, her efficiency would definitely be higher.

But now Fang Yuci has no secretaries around her. She wants to find a top student to tutor her, but the top student has to take exams himself and may not be willing to help her. Even if the top student is really willing, she is embarrassed to waste the top student's precious time before the exam week.

She thought about it and mobilized all her connections to find a top student who was good at professional knowledge and could help her with cram school. What's more, the top student she was looking for couldn't be the same age as her. Exam week was coming soon, and she didn't want to waste the top student's time and affect his test scores.

Before traveling to ancient times, Fang Yuci was also quite a homebody. She couldn't even think of finding someone she didn't know through someone she knew, and then finding the next person she didn't know through someone she didn't know...

However, after traveling through ancient times for more than ten years, Fang Yuci is completely unable to stay at home. She has to deal with countless concubines, palace maids, eunuchs, noble ladies and ladies of noble families every day... her social skills have almost reached the maximum level. Her ability to become a royal concubine and be appointed as the successor was mainly due to luck. She herself was average, but the maids and eunuchs under her were all capable.

Having seen many human sperms in the harem, Fang Yuci did not dare to say that she had become a human sperm, but she believed that no matter how difficult the problem was, there would always be someone who could solve it. If she had not found someone who could solve it yet, it must be because she had not looked for enough people...

With this belief, Fang Yuci boldly looked for someone and soon found one!

Senior Lu from their major has graduated from undergraduate school three years ago and from graduate school one year ago. He ranked first in the postgraduate entrance examination that year. Now after graduating from graduate school, he did not look for a job, but started his own business and opened a postgraduate entrance examination tutoring class.

Therefore, although Senior Lu has graduated and is long gone from exam week, his professional knowledge is very solid. He has summarized and sorted out the knowledge many times, and has taught and tutored students many times. He has already memorized all the knowledge context and key test points.

When Senior Lu learned that Fang Yuci, who had found her through many twists and turns, needed tutoring not for the postgraduate entrance examination but for the freshman final exam, he was very straightforward, "No problem! The tuition fee will be based on the postgraduate entrance examination tutoring standard, two hundred and fifty per hour!"
