Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl-Chapter 794 - 793: The Origin of the Club

"Psh, who says having a good imagination isn’t a valuable thing? Zhen Yu came up with a great excuse with just a bit of thought.

"Whether I wear Hanfu myself is not the important part! What’s important is that I want more people to wear Hanfu! Only then can we spread the traditional clothing of the Han Nationality, allowing our countrymen to experience the traditional culture of the Han Nationality, to see the beauty of our traditional costume! I also want every member of the Han Clan to realize that as long as the nationality exists, so does the costume; if the nationality perishes, so does the costume! To understand that Hanfu represents the entire Han Clan, rather than a single or a few short-lived dynasties."

Isn’t there a saying about reality becoming fiction when falsehood turns into truth? Zhen Yu had no clue if her speech moved anyone else, but she definitely moved herself... Then, all of a sudden, she made up her mind! She was going to remember every word she just said and actively put it into practice! To strive for the preservation and revival of Han Clan culture...

Meanwhile, the other three in the dormitory were immersed in deep thought after hearing Zhen Yu’s words.

It took a while before Sun Shuhan quietly muttered to herself, "How can it be said that I have no clothes? I shall share my robed with you."

Touched by the sentiment, You Qing suddenly made a surprising suggestion: "Let’s start a society!"

"What?!" Three surprised voices sounded simultaneously from different corners of the room.

Shi Mei was the first to express support! "Great idea! Count me in!"

Sun Shuhan: "Me too!"

----

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yu knew she certainly couldn’t escape responsibility.

So she quickly laid out a condition!

"I’ll join! Full support is also fine! But I refuse to be the president, haha!"

Unexpectedly, You Qing immediately reproached her, "President? It’s called a club president!"

Zhen Yu: "I don’t care what kind of ’president’ it is, I’m just not doing it!"

Shi Mei couldn’t help but ask her, "Why not?! You’re the one among us four who knows the most about Hanfu. Aren’t you the most suitable person to be the club president?!"

Actually, Zhen Yu just thought managing a society was too troublesome! But she didn’t want to outright say that. So she casually made up a reason: "I think I’m more suitable as the logistics officer! I can provide everyone with Hanfu and sponsorships!"

After a pause, she added: "Right! And information about Hanfu! Once you all have studied seriously, you’ll quickly know as much as I do!"

"Good! That works!" You Qing thought this was also a good idea and said, "Then it’s settled on my part! Shi Mei, Shuhan, what do you two think?"

Sun Shuhan and Shi Mei both gave their approval.

But regarding the choice for president, the two of them, much like Zhen Yu, were equally reluctant to come forward.

In the end, there was no other option! As the initiator of the ’establish a society’ proposal, You Qing just had to reluctantly take on the responsibility herself!

"I’m going to be clear! I’ll take on the role of president! But you two are not allowed to slack off! When there’s something that needs to be organized,"

"Whatever you say, president!" Shi Mei jokingly chimed in, "Your servant will follow your command!"

"Hehe..." Sun Shuhan laughed shyly, but everyone knew that she surely felt the same way.

And so, on this ordinary night, the future’s most influential Hanfu Club in the nation was quietly decided to be founded.

----

Making a decision is easy, but truly carrying it out is not so simple.

Therefore, the four of them discussed for a long time afterwards, before tentatively deciding on a plan for establishing the society.

They considered the founding mission, operating mechanisms, organizational structure, and activity plans, and so on!

If it weren’t for the fact that they had classes all day on Friday, Zhen Yu might have even suspected they could have chatted all night...

Finally, when it became too late, they had no choice but to sleep. But right before dozing off, Sun Shuhan made a point to share something with Zhen Yu: "You know, the calligraphy competition we’re entering, I’ve heard it’s fiercely competitive with masters from the Capital and even across the country! Prepare for the possibility of defeat."

Startled, Zhen Yu then calmly responded, "Got it."

After that, they all had a good night’s sleep.

The following morning, as soon as their classes ended, You Qing and Shi Mei could no longer contain themselves! They were practically eager to grab Zhen Yu and rush back to the dorm!

Fortunately, after Sun Shuhan’s persuasion, they finally went to the cafeteria to eat first...

Then, the four girls hurried back to their dorm and tried on Hanfu.

To avoid unequal distribution, Zhen Yu brought out two more sets, allowing her roommates to each wear their own outfit.

Of course! That was all she had, not even one set more!

Shi Mei: "Oh my gosh! How do you wear this? Xiao Yu, help me!"

"Ack! Is this sash tied here? Zhen Yu! Come and teach me!" You Qing was equally confused.

These two relied entirely on Zhen Yu’s instructions to finally properly dress in Hanfu. Meanwhile, Sun Shuhan quietly and methodically dressed herself without any haste.

This actually impressed Zhen Yu quite a bit...

----

Finding Zhen Yu watching her, Sun Shuhan couldn’t help but smile shyly, "You know? When I was a kid, I loved watching historical dramas! And I really liked turning household items like bed sheets, scarves, mosquito nets, and towel blankets into ancient attire—those with big sleeves,"

"Ah! Exactly! Just like you!" Shi Mei suddenly interrupted, "I’d make water sleeves out of all kinds of bed sheets and vigorously shake them up my arms! Though I could never manage to get them to stay up properly!"

At this point, You Qing also dove into the conversation, "Haha! I even walked a T-stage on my home bed! And pretended I was a queen in the palace! I played princess with several girls from the neighborhood... We all tiptoed around, back then I was really into it..."

Shi Mei said excitedly, "My place was an old house back then! I often draped a bed sheet over myself and would run around the yard or sit under a tree, haha! I felt so mood-lit and happy!"

You Qing followed immediately, "Yeah! When I wore a bed sheet and towels, I loved to run so they’d all flutter! I even wasted countless tapes just to pull out the black magnetic ribbon and make a wig! At night when my parents were out playing mahjong, I’d put it on my head, wrap a towel blanket around me, sit in front of the mirror, and strike poses! Of course, you had to have a fan blowing on you for that ethereal floating feeling! I remember wrapping myself in a huge summer towel blanket..."
