Christmas is over, followed by New Year's Day, which is already the New Year of 1991. It has been a full year since Li Wei came to this era.
From the queen mother of a country to an ordinary female middle school student, there was a huge gap in identity. During this year, Li Wei gradually adapted to her new identity, and during this period, she experienced a huge change in her mentality.
After the class meeting, Li Wei returned home with his report card. The uncle's house she went to first was quiet in the yard, and the door to the main room was ajar. Li Wei was about to push the door open when she heard movement from Li Xia's house next door.
"Touch for me, just touch it, okay?" Is that He Chao's voice? But it doesn't sound like much. The voice was slightly rough.
Listening to the movement, Li Wei's heart beat like a drum. Li Xia is already engaged to He Chao. Is she playing with fire? He also openly brought people from outside into his home in broad daylight. Don’t look at anything that’s inappropriate, don’t look at anything that’s inappropriate.
This was not Li Wei's business, let alone a place for her to stay for a long time, so Li Wei ran outside. He ran back to his home in one breath, his chest still pounding.
I'd better leave here now. If she really bumps into something in the future, it will be even more awkward for her to get along with her uncle's family.
Li Wei turned on the radio and lay on the table listening to the news. As she listened, she fell asleep.
Li Wei stayed here until after four o'clock in the afternoon. He was very hungry and wanted to find something to eat. Unfortunately, after searching through the house, I still couldn't find any food that could be imported.
Go to the uncle's house, but what if the person Li Xia made an appointment with doesn't leave.
Li Wei just went out and didn't dare to go directly to his uncle's house. Fortunately, I saw Wang Yulan.
"I heard that you guys are on vacation, so we can play together again." Li Wei has grown a lot in this year, and Wang Yulan is obviously shorter than her.
Li smiled: "I'm afraid that won't work, I'm going to the city to help my parents work tomorrow."
Wang Yulan was disappointed when she heard this.
The two were standing together talking, and Li Wei saw Li Xia approaching from a distance. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you talking about? Aren't you going home?" Li Xia said.
"Go back soon."
Li Wei and Wang Yulan said a few words before leaving. Li Xia is no different from usual, she is like a completely fine person.
It turns out that Li Mingguo and his wife are not at home today, no wonder Li Xia dared to do anything wrong. But seeing that she acted like a normal person, Li Wei still had to admire Li Xia's good attitude.
Li Xia asked Li Wei to cook, but she was afraid of the cold and had already got into bed, waiting for Li Wei to cook the food and deliver it to her.
Such days are coming to an end soon, which is undoubtedly a relief for Li Wei.
"You really have to leave tomorrow. Will you come back during the New Year?"
"You should come back, don't you want to worship your ancestors?"
Could it be that Li Xia would be reluctant to let her go
"I will get married in a few months. What will you give me then?" Li Xia took the initiative to ask for a gift from Li Wei.
Taking the initiative to ask her for a gift, Li Wei thought for a while and then said, "I'm still a student now and I don't have much money. I'm afraid you won't like it if I buy it."
Li Xia smiled and said: "You will have no money? Haha, aren't you very good at making money? You will have no money after selling so many things?"
Li Wei muttered: "My little fuss is nothing. I won't be afraid of people laughing at me if I tell it. I can only earn one or two cents for each item I sell."
"One or two cents is still money. I still know the principle of adding up a little makes a lot."
Suddenly asked about her income, Li Wei couldn't help but be more cautious. No matter what, he couldn't lend money to Li Xia.
The two sisters were the only ones at home that night. Li Wei stayed over tonight and went to the city tomorrow. This semester has gone by so fast.
Li Wei's things had been packed long ago. After breakfast the next morning, she packed up her luggage and said goodbye to Li Xia, then went to the street to catch a ride.
After riding in the car for about forty minutes, Li Wei got off the car. Li Jianping was already riding there waiting for her.
"Why is the eldest brother here? Where is the second brother?"
"You're just thinking about your second brother, and you don't want to see my eldest brother so much. He's busy with his own affairs at school." Li Jianping helped Li Wei tie the pile of things to the car, and then took her to her new home. .
The place they rented temporarily was a low bungalow not far from the small restaurant. The exterior walls are painted in white and green colors. Including the living room, there are five rooms in total. The kitchen and toilet are outside.
"This room is reserved for you." Li Jianping brought Li Wei's things into a room. There was a small wooden bed in that room, a small desk, and no wardrobe. The room seemed a little empty.
Li Wei put down the things, looked at the room, and said, "We are just living here temporarily, right?"
Li Jianping smiled and said: "After renting for a year, the conditions should be better than at home. Are you still not used to living there?"
Li Wei was not used to looking at the snow-white walls, but she said: "It will get better slowly."
After Li Jianping put down his things, he went to help in the shop and gave Li Wei a few words before leaving.
Li Wei started to clean up the house and swept all the rooms with a broom. Then he got another basin of water and wiped the glass windows, tables, chairs and benches with a handkerchief. She just went to make the bed. She was already tired enough after all this work. She slumped down on the bed and stared at the ceiling with a few shallow cracks. This was her new home.
After lying down for a while, I felt hungry. There seemed to be nothing to eat at home. I guessed that my parents were eating in the shop. I figured it was almost time, so I locked the door and went up to the shop.
It was lunch time and the store was very busy. Li Wei rolled up his sleeves and hurried over to help.
Although I am a little busier, I make more money. Everyone in the family is very happy. After finally finishing all this work, Liu Chunzhi was able to talk to Li Wei.
"It's a holiday. How did you do in the exam?"
Li Wei said: "It's just so so."
Seeing Li Wei like this, Liu Chunzhi sighed inwardly and thought to himself, what kind of high school should he go to? After one semester, he should come back to help the family. Jianping also wanted to change to a bigger store next year and have one more helper.
These words remained in Liu Chunzhi's heart but she did not say them out.
After lunch, there weren't many customers in the afternoon, and they didn't sell dinner, so they closed. Li Minghua stayed to guard the shop, while the others returned to their temporary homes.
Li Jianbo was squatting there playing with a TV. But where did the TV come from? Li Jianping asked in surprise: "Jianbo, where did you get the TV?"
Li Jianbo said without raising his head: "Our teacher Zhang has bought a new color TV. Their black and white TV is no longer available. They said it has some minor problems, so I asked to come over and see if it can be fixed."
Li Jianping was surprised and said: "Can you still repair TV?"
"I'm going to see what's wrong with the components, and I don't know if they can be repaired." Li Jianbo continued to fiddle with it.
