The sunset hangs low on the rows of tube towers, and a faint golden light spreads all over the capital.

Li Wei walked slowly towards the courtyard along the golden brilliance.

The sound of bicycle bells, the sizzle of knives and scissors, the shouting of curium pots and cups and teapots, and the noise of children surrounding the sugar burden and changing the candy with glass bottles were mixed into Li Wei's ears and eyes.

Compared with the cold and lonely universe, these hustle and bustle full of life make people feel more intimate.

It's a pity that everything will be destroyed by the Trisolarans in 500 years.

No, there is a turnaround!

Li Wei walked under a ginkgo tree, stopped, looked at the hustle and bustle of the world, and began to think.

According to the research of later historians, Ye Wenjie was not a natural anti-human.

The main reason why she took the initiative to respond to the signals of the Three-Body World at the Red Bank Base was because of her personal tragic experience, which made her lose her confidence in human beings.

The father was beaten to death in front of his eyes, the mother had mental problems, the teacher he admired committed suicide, and he was framed by a trusted colleague in Daxinganling, all of which are unbearable for any person.

If you can change the trajectory of Ye Wenjie's life, then you can avoid the disaster without killing Ye Wenjie.

Although this seems to be an impossible task, it may not be too difficult for Li Wei, who has God's vision.

It may be that the ideological steel seal has completely collapsed, Li Wei's thinking is becoming more and more active, and the brilliance in his eyes is shining.

Yes, that's it!

If it goes well, in the future, it can also carry out a cosmic broadcast that cannot be traced to the address, and with the help of the power of the god-level civilization, the three-body civilization will be eliminated.

In order to do this, in this era of strong winds, we must first survive and survive.

After Li Wei made up his mind, he strengthened his belief and strode towards a small alley in Dongzhimen.

At the end of the alley, there is a wooden door mottled with vermilion lacquer.

Li Wei grabbed the rusty iron ring and tapped it twice.

"Who?" After a rough sound, the wooden door opened with a "squeak", and a middle-aged man wearing a blue and black cotton jacket with a black face and a stubble beard stood inside.

When he saw Li Wei, a trace of joy that could not be hidden flashed in his eyes.

"Li Wei, why are you here?"

This one is Li Wei's uncle - Li Wannian.

Mr. Li has two sons, the eldest son Li Wannian and the second son Li Wanchang.

As a person who came from the old era, Old Man Li is conservative and has always favored the eldest son.

When the second son Li Wan grew up, he was kicked out of the old house after the family was separated and lost the right to inherit the property.

This seemingly absurd approach can be understood by Li Wei.

In the old era, China was an agricultural era, and the eldest son was generally more robust, could inherit the means of production and provide for the elderly, and always received more care.

Li Wanchang and his predecessor didn't understand it very much, thinking that the old man was too partial.

When Mr. Li was alive, the two families did not interact often.

Old man Li passed away, and the two families broke off their relationship.

A while ago, because Li Wanchang passed away, he needed to do something, and his predecessor resumed contact with his uncle.

Rao is like this, and the knots in his heart have not been unraveled.

When he was sick, he would rather sell his job than ask Li Wannian for help.

This seems to be an ambitious approach, but in the view of Li Wei, who adheres to pragmatism, it is completely a crime to die to save face.

In life, face is worth a few dollars!

"Uncle, since my father died, I can't afford to be sick, and I can't even walk the road." Li Wei instantly turned into a weak look, "I'm better today, let's come and see your old man." ”

As he spoke, he spread his empty hands and pretended to be embarrassed and smiled: "You see that your nephew has almost spent all the family's money in order to see a doctor, and he has no money to buy gifts, don't be surprised." ”

"Look what you kid says!" Li Wannian saw Li Wei's pale face, and blamed himself for not going to see Li Wei because of face.

This child has just become an adult, and he has no parents, how difficult it must be to live alone.

"Come into the house, it just so happened that the factory sent five catties of Fuqiang powder, and your aunt steamed white flour steamed buns."

Li Wannian hurriedly let his nephew, who had just recovered from a serious illness, into the small courtyard, and held the door frame on tiptoe, for fear that Li Wei, who was 1.8 meters tall, would hit his head.

As soon as he reached the door of the hall, he heard a quarrel from inside.

The sister-in-law of the Li family pointed at Li Qianjian, the eldest of the Li family, with a big belly, and shouted hoarsely: "Split up, I can't live this day, I must split up today." ”

"I didn't see you bullying people like this, so I used the money to help make up for the second son."

Li Qianqian thought she was embarrassed and wanted to drag her daughter-in-law into the house.

Although Li Qianjin was strong, Sister-in-law Li had a protective shield, and the two pulled together.

"What a fuss! Don't you just want to split up, split up tomorrow, come to the east today, don't embarrass me! Li Wannian grimaced and reprimanded.

Li Wei didn't expect this kind of scene, he was just going to borrow money, how should he speak now?

Although the predecessor had little contact with Li Wannian's family, he still had some understanding of his family's situation.

Li Wannian is an eighth-level welder in the rolling mill, relying on his skills to eat, and his salary is higher than that of the workshop director, 99 yuan per month, and he has many apprentices, and his eldest son Li Qianjin is also one of them.

The sister-in-law was also stuffed into the logistics office by Li Wannian to find a relationship.

The youngest son, Li Shengli, is a bastard.

dropped out of elementary school, Li Wannian found him a few serious jobs and didn't do anything, and he was out all day long messing around with a group of fox friends and dogs.

didn't get into trouble, and Li Wannian didn't wipe his ass less.

It seems that this time it was Li Shengli who caused a lot of trouble, Li Wannian spent money to pick him up, and Sister-in-law Li was naturally dissatisfied.

Sister-in-law Li was reprimanded by her father-in-law, and when she saw that Li Wei was also there, she smiled awkwardly: "Brother Li Wei is here, sit down first, I'll go to the kitchen to help my mother steam steamed buns." ”

After Sister-in-law Li left, Li Qianqian stood up and took out two enamel cups from the cupboard, poured out some high crushed cups from the iron box next to him, and cut two cups of tea.

Li Wannian took out a copper cigarette pouch and pot, and smoked a cigarette.

Li Wei didn't ask about Li Shengli either.

That's not uncomfortable.

There is no way to borrow money, after all, my uncle's family has just been angry because of money.

I can only talk about the past.

The steamed buns were quickly steamed, and the aunt carried the steamed buns into the hall with a full sieve.

Seeing that Li Wei was also there, his expression was a little surprised, but his eyes flashed with a little joy.

She turned around and brought a cold dish of sour radish and capers from the kitchen, put them on the table, and complained about Li Wannian.

"Li Wei is here, why don't you tell me, I also have two more dishes."

"That's all there is to it, big white steamed buns, how fragrant." Li Wei took the hot white steamed bun from his sister-in-law's hand and couldn't wait to bite it.

The white flour steamed buns, not to mention, are really delicious, with a glutinous taste and moderate sweetness.

In Li Wei's memory, this was the first time he had eaten white-flour steamed buns.

Now the noodles are divided into first, second, and third grades.

Fuqiang flour is a first-class flour, rich in nutrition, and the taste is ten or a hundred times better than cornmeal.

The price of the supply and marketing cooperatives is 2 cents a catty, and the corresponding food stamps are required, and only some high-ranking cadres in the city are qualified to buy them.

The capers are also sour and spicy, which is very refreshing.

Li Wei swallowed two steamed buns with capers, drank a large amount of tea in the enamel jar, and burped.

Li Wannian and Li Qianjin also ate two, and Sister-in-law Li and Aunt Li ate one.

The rest were put in the cupboard, obviously waiting for Li Shengli to come back and eat.

After eating and drinking, it was getting late, and Li Wei offered to leave.

When she took it away, Aunt Li found an old newspaper, wrapped five steamed buns, and stuffed them into Li Wei's arms.

"Child, this is your home, come back often when you have time in the future."

Li Wannian sent Li Wei to the door, glanced back at the courtyard, and secretly took out a bundle of banknotes from the pocket of his cotton coat and stuffed it into Li Wei's hand.

"Eldest nephew, here is fifty yuan, Uncle knows that you are having a hard time now, so take it first."

Li Wei didn't shirk, took the money and put it in his pocket.

pursed his mouth, and pretended to be relaxed: "Uncle, don't worry, I will return this money to you soon." ”

"It's all a family, what do you say, if you talk about it, I owe more to your family." Li Wannian waved his hand, his lips trembling slightly: "The matter of the elders, let it pass." At that time, the old man was too eccentric and wanted to get the second brother out. I, the big brother, didn't stand up and stop it, and I was also wrong. If it weren't for that, the second brother wouldn't have died so early. ”

After speaking, he patted Li Wei on the shoulder: "In the future, you will have to come to play often, by the way, in a few days you will take your father's shift and go to work in the rolling mill, right?" When the time comes, your uncle will find some acquaintances to take care of you. ”

At work, Li Wei really can't wait to find a crack in the ground for the original body!

What the hell are you doing!!

"I don't like the work of a fitter, so I'll push it off first!"

He made a disapproving look, barely holding on to his composure.

As soon as these words came out, Li Wannian exploded directly.

"Pushed it off?

It was a formal fitter in the rolling mill, and no matter how many people asked for it, they couldn't ask for it.

You pushed?

What do you want to do in the future? ”

Li Wei pretended to be relaxed and said: "I have my own plans. ”

Li Wannian saw that he was rarely determined, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

What better job is there than a rolling mill fitter?

Although the two families don't have much contact, Li Wannian also knows that Li Wei is a clever person, and he may really be able to find a better job.

As an uncle, Li Wannian didn't have much to say, so he could only keep this worry in his heart.

"It's not early, I'll go back first. By the way, give Shengli a word for you, I'll play with him in two days. ”

Li Wei took the fifty yuan he borrowed and returned to the courtyard.

As soon as I entered the gate, I heard the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling.

"Which one lacks virtue and smokes, and steals my old hen."

"We've got thieves in the compound, big guy, come on."
