Restarting 16 Years Old, the Champion is Tiger and Tea

Neighbor Aunt Liu heard the noise and came out to greet Li Yan warmly.

The small courtyard at my grandma's house is actually a three-sided courtyard with only the main house and the east and west wing rooms.

The main house has three rooms, which were originally where my grandparents and Li Xun and Li Yan lived. Li Xun got married and had children here.

The two rooms in the east wing are occupied by Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu's family. Their two sons and one daughter moved out after they got married.

There was a room in the west wing, which was originally occupied by a family. Later, they moved out and the house was given to the Li family.

At that time, with the brother and sister Li Haoyun and Li Haotian, three rooms were indeed not enough for them.

Later, my grandfather passed away. Li Xun's unit was allocated an apartment two years ago, so he moved out. The new house is close to the unit.

However, Li Haotian and Li Haoyun usually live here, which is closer to their school.

Looking at Li Haoyun and Li Haotian who were busy serving tea and water, Wen Xin looked at them quietly, feeling very kind in his heart.

Li Haoyun is a freshman and Li Haotian is a senior high school.

Li Haoyun is a student at Beijing Institute of Technology. In her previous life, she immigrated to the United States with her husband and lived a relatively comfortable and smooth life.

Thinking of Li Haotian, Wen Xin felt a little heavy.

In his previous life, Li Haotian studied finance and joined a large bank. He rose rapidly all the way up the career ladder and became the president of a branch at a young age.

At the age of 51, he was implicated in a major economic case and was thrown into prison.

It was from that time that my aunt, who had always been optimistic and open-minded, fell ill and my uncle's health also deteriorated rapidly.

......

Li Yan and her grandmother prepared lunch together, and Li Xun and Wen Chengzhi went out together to buy some ready-made meat.

My aunt works far away and couldn't make it back for lunch, so the seven of them sat around the table and ate happily.

Blood relationship is a magical thing. Li Haotian and Li Haoyun had hardly met Wen Xin, but they quickly became close to her.

Suddenly a little girl appeared. She was very sweet and really likable.

"Xinxin, we'll take you out to play in the afternoon and go ice skating in Beihai Park." Li Haotian said while eating with his cheeks puffed out.

Li Yan smiled and said, "Haotian, put your play aside for now. I'm going to take Xinxin to the mall this afternoon to buy some clothes. We haven't bought any clothes for the New Year yet."

Because we are coming to Beijing this year, our family of three didn’t buy any new clothes. We just waited until we came to Beijing to buy them.

"Yeah, buy a few more clothes for my sister. She will definitely look better when she dresses up." Li Haotian was talking while eating.

"You, when you see Xinxin, your mouth becomes so sweet, as if you were touched by honey." Li Haoyun teased.

Wen Xin pursed her lips and chuckled.

This Li Haotian is a straightforward and enthusiastic person.

Grandma sat next to Wen Xin and kept putting food into her bowl, all of which were Wen Xin's favorite dishes.

Wen Xin's eyes felt a little sore.

After so many years, grandma still remembers her taste clearly.

......

After lunch and a short rest, the family of three got on the bus and set off.

It's a weekday and not rush hour, so there aren't many people on the bus.

The conductor saw them sitting down and came over to ask them to buy tickets.

"Li Yan...are you Li Yan?"

Hearing the conductor's uncertain voice, Li Yan raised his head, looked around, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Wang Yuzhen?"

The two held hands and laughed happily.

Wang Yuzhen bought tickets for several other people and returned to chat with Li Yan.

Wang Yuzhen is Li Yan’s junior high school classmate. She went to the countryside with Li Yan at the same time. After returning to the city, she found a job as a ticket seller in a bus company and has been doing it for many years.

"Li Yan, you are the only one in our class who didn't go back to the city. When we got together a few years ago, we all talked about you, the study committee member back then. Do you regret staying in that small place?"

Wang Yuzhen sighed, and Li Yan touched Wen Xin's ponytail with a look of kindness and satisfaction.

"Why should I regret it? I have such a lovely daughter, a happy family, and a smooth job. I am very satisfied."

Wen Xin listened, feeling heavy-hearted as he thought about the changes that would take place at the electrical appliance factory next year.

Wang Yuzhen smiled and touched Wen Xin's little head, then looked at the elegant and introverted Wen Chengzhi, thinking about the scene when he took care of his wife and children to sit down when he got in the car just now, and nodded.

You can get a pretty good idea of ​​whether a woman is living a good life by looking at her appearance and the attitudes of the people around her.

When they arrived at another stop, Wang Yuzhen was busy greeting people getting on and off the bus. After selling tickets, she came over and continued chatting with Li Yan about their old classmates.

"Among those who went back to the city from the countryside, Zhou Chunlin is the most active one now. He has a big business in the clothing wholesale market and was a millionaire several years ago."

Li Yan frowned and thought: "Zhou Chunlin, I remember he was small and mischievous back then, but now he's a big boss."

"Yes, it's over there at Beijiao Park. The market is very busy. Zhou Chunlin's stall is called Chunlin Clothing Store."

Wen Xin thought about it and thought that it should be the park wholesale market which became very famous later and it is still in its infancy.

In this era, many people who dared to dig up their first pot of gold later became successful.

Walking into Xicheng Commercial Street, the surging flow of people is filled with the bustling and lively atmosphere at the end of the year.

Walking through the crowded shops, Li Yan kept sighing.

Many things in my memory are still there, but many have been replaced by various new things.

Wen Chengzhi and Li Yan squeezed to the counter to look at the merchandise, while Wen Xin silently looked around behind them.

She looked up at the crisscrossing wires in the air and the iron clips holding bills that occasionally moved across them, and a smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.

She loved watching this when she was a child.

I feel that these sales clerks and cashiers are really amazing. The clips fly over and stop exactly where they are needed.

Seeing Li Yan happily squeeze out of the crowd with many pieces of silk, Wen Xin asked curiously: "Mom, why do you buy such a small piece of each? What are you going to use it for?"

Li Yan smiled proudly:

"Making silk scarves. Didn't you see how expensive the silk scarves we just saw were? I saw the piping and I can make it myself when I get home."

"Besides, thick fabrics are on sale now, and these silks in stock are cheaper than in the summer."

By the time they arrived at the Xicheng Shopping Mall, Wen Chengzhi already had a lot of small items in his hands.

Xicheng Shopping Mall is the most prosperous shopping mall in Beijing, with the largest and most fashionable clothing categories.

The three of them went back and forth, buying all the equipment from head to toe, and also bought a blue tweed coat for grandma.

Walking out of Xicheng Shopping Mall, Wen Chengzhi and Wen Xin felt like their feet were not their own.

Looking at Li Yan who is still full of enthusiasm, I really admire her. When women go shopping, their endurance is unmatched.

I had already agreed not to go home for dinner.

A family of three came to Jingxiangju and ate the restaurant’s most famous roast duck.

Wen Xin savored the familiar taste.

Not to mention, the Jingxiangju roast duck of this era has a richer fruity flavor and more fragrant meat than that of decades later.

Wen Chengzhi packed up another half, and the three of them walked out of the restaurant after having a full meal and a drink.
