Chapter 168: Second Uncle Li

When I got closer, I found that there were only two families on the first floor, no wonder it was smaller than the building on Li's father's side, and such a living environment was similar to that of ordinary people in later generations.

went up to the second floor, Li Aihua knocked on the door and shouted: "Second uncle, second aunt......"

The door quickly opened, and a middle-aged man stepped out of it. This man was wearing a Mao suit and glasses, and his appearance was seven or eight points similar to Li's father, but he had a bookish air on his body.

Li Yuan hurriedly let the two of them into the house.

Two days ago, I received a call from Li's father and knew that the two of them were coming, but he had been very busy these days, so he asked his wife to pick it up. As a result, his wife didn't pick up something temporarily today, so that he just arrived home and found that his niece hadn't arrived yet, so he was worried that he was about to go out to the station to find it!

Tian Shao walked in and found that there was a dining table on the right side of their house, a simple sofa on the left, and a chest of drawers on the opposite side of the sofa, and a black and white TV set on top of the chest of drawers.

Li Aihua pointed at Tian Shao and said, "Uncle, this is my good sister Tian Shao, she came to the provincial capital to do business this time." ”

Tian Shao smiled and said, "Hello uncle, I've been hearing Sister Aihua mention you, and I'm honored to meet you today." ”

Li Yuan beckoned the two of them to sit down and explained: "Aihua, I originally asked your aunt to pick you up at the station, but I didn't expect your aunt to attend a meeting in the afternoon and still haven't come back. ”

Aihua knew that their husband and wife were busy, and said with a smile: "Uncle, I'm not a three-year-old child, why do I need to pick them up when I'm so old." But it's so late, why haven't Fuguo and Red Star come back yet? ”

Li Yuan explained with a smile: "Fuguo went to the countryside yesterday with the leaders of their printing house. Yesterday I was told that I could come back in the afternoon, but I don't know why I haven't arrived home yet. ”

Li Aihua said in his heart, could it be that his aunt didn't look down on Tian Shao, and deliberately separated Li Fuguo. But it's better not to let the two meet, so that I won't be able to explain to Tian Shao when I arrive.

After talking for a while, seeing that his wife hadn't come back yet, Li Yuan got up and said, "Aihua, Tian Shao, you must be hungry for such a long journey." Let's go to the cafeteria to eat. ”

Li Aihua vomited once in the morning, and when he arrived in the district, he was afraid of vomiting again in the car, so he only ate a small amount of food, and he was hungry because his chest was close to his back.

Li Yuan took the two of them to the second floor of the cafeteria, where there was a small cafeteria. Of course, only leaders will come to the small canteen, and ordinary employees are willing to come here to eat.

The chef of the small cafeteria greeted Li Yuan warmly: "Chief Engineer Li, you are here, who are these two girls?" ”

Li Yuanle said happily: "Oh, this is my niece Aihua, this is Aihua's friend Tian Shao, they came to the provincial capital to do business this time." Old Tang, these two children are hungry after a day's journey, so you hurry up and come up with two dishes. ”

Master Tang said with a smile: "Chief Engineer Li, there are still half a duck and two fish, so let's make blood duck and braised fish!" ”

Li Yuan likes to eat spicy food, and he asked Tian Shao if he could eat spicy food.

Tian Shao is quite spicy, she smiled and said, "Yes." However, Sister Aihua got motion sickness and vomited in the morning, and she didn't eat anything at noon, so she ate something hot to warm her stomach first. Otherwise, the spicy and irritating stomach will not be able to stand it directly. ”

Master Tang didn't expect Tian Shao to understand so much, and said with a smile: "This is easy to do, I'll get you a small bowl of egg noodles to pad your stomach first." ”

Li Yuan said: "Give each of them a small bowl." ”

It's not that I'm reluctant, but I can't eat after the noodles are full.

After the master entered the kitchen, Li Yuan chatted with Tian Shao about academic matters, but Li Aihua, the niece, didn't ask a word.

Tian Shao actually doesn't like strangers to ask questions, but Li Yuan's tone is very gentle when she speaks, and she says it simply.

Li Yuan listened to her when she was a child, she got up before dawn every day to work, and waited for dawn to memorize texts and write. He exclaimed: "Xiao Tian, you kid is really amazing, if our rich country and Red Star have half of your hard work, you don't have to worry about it." ”

No wonder the eldest brother fell in love with this girl, not only hard work but also perseverance, the first two children in their family are far behind in this regard. However, he had the idea of going with the flow for Tian Shao and Li Fuguo.

What Tian Shao said was actually the original body, this girl really loves to learn. It's a pity that such a good girl died at a young age, or for such a selfish woman. Sometimes it's not worth it to think about it.

Li Aihua felt that this was very familiar, this is not what her mother often said!

Tian Shao said with a smile: "Uncle is too awarded. I was also lucky to meet many good people such as Grandma Zhu and Principal Xin to complete my studies. Without them, I probably wouldn't be one. ”

Li Yuan's eyes changed a little when he looked at Tian Shao, this kid's character is really good, he said: "This is also your own smart learning and persistence, otherwise it will be useless even if they help you." ”

Two small bowls of egg noodles with green vegetables quickly came up. Tian Shao smelled this fragrance and had a great appetite, and a small bowl of noodles quickly became delicious.

Li Aihua ate faster than Tian Shao, and after eating, he asked unsatisfied: "How are these noodles made?" It's so delicious, it's even better than the ones in state-run restaurants. ”

Tian Shao said with a smile: "The chicken soup used here is used as a soup base, and it is difficult to think about it if it is not delicious." ”

After the two of them finished eating the noodles, Second Uncle Li asked again, "Xiao Tian, I heard that you have five sisters?" You are the eldest in the family. ”

Tian Shao secretly wondered in his heart, how could this be like checking the household registration: "Yes, we have five daughters, but my father and mother are very good to us." My father lost his health to feed us, and he is still raising it at home. ”

Li Aihua said very worriedly when he heard this: "Didn't you say that there are some physical losses, but it can be better if it is not serious?" ”

Tian Shao explained in a good voice: "Now you don't have to work in the field in winter, and I don't dare to let him do the heavy work of carrying water and chopping firewood at home, so I want to take advantage of this winter to take care of it." ”

If her comic strips are successfully published and she can have a regular income in the future, she will persuade Tian Dalin to stop doing heavy physical work.

Li Yuan guessed that the conditions of the Tian family should be very poor, but he didn't expect it to be so bad: "You really should let your father take care of it, otherwise any problems will be found when you get older in a few years." ”

Tian Shao nodded and said, "Yes, so I have to work hard now to support this family for my father." After four or five years, when my sisters are older, I will be relaxed. ”

Li Yuan felt that this girl was really filial.

The master made them three dishes, blood duck, braised fish and bean sprouts. The portion of the dish was relatively large, and the three of them didn't finish it and packed it back in the end. At this time, frugality is advocated, and any leftovers will be packed home.

After going back, the house was still empty, and Li Aihua was so tired after a whole day: "Uncle, sleep with Tian Shao first." ”

I hope it wasn't to avoid Tian Shao coming back so late on purpose, otherwise she wouldn't be here next time she came to the provincial capital.

Seeing that both of them looked tired, Li Yuan hurriedly said, "Then you should hurry up and rest." ”
