Chapter 216 outing

There was a heater in the house, and everyone took off their hats and scarves and put them on the sofa. Li Tao ran over in his thick slippers and tutted, praising him, "That man is indeed a top student studying abroad. The house that was designed and renovated is really beautiful. It's just like the fairytale world."

"It's pretty good indeed. Go and pick up a room, pack your bags, and we'll go out for dinner later." Now this decoration is very good in this era, but it will be common in another 10 or 20 years.

Liu Fen went to the kitchen and bathroom again, came back and said, "Haitang, just cook at home. Don't eat out."

"Aunt Fen, we won't be cooking today. This new house hasn't been on fire yet, and we don't have rice, rape, or anything like that. After lunch, you guys help me move the stuff over to the rented house and cook at home tomorrow." Although Li Haitang had not been to work for the past two days, she was also very busy. She had not moved yet. There were many things there, especially books. She was very tired from moving alone, so she naturally asked them for help.

Liu Fen nodded, "Sure, let's pack up first."

Everyone worked separately. Li Tao and Duan Jinqiao helped clean up the clothes and so on. Li Jianguo and Liu Fen strung up the dried waxy vegetables that they brought from home and put them in the kitchen. Li Haitang put all the other sweets in the cupboard and put them away.

After finishing, everyone changed their shoes and went out again. For lunch, they found a sichuan restaurant to eat. Everyone loved spicy food. There was also a kind of hemp flavor in sichuan food. Everyone could accept it and ate happily.

The things in the rented house were almost packed, the big ones were packed, but the books were heavy and many. Fortunately, with Li Jianguo and Li Tao's father and son's help, it was almost enough to move.

Li Haitang wanted them to rest in the afternoon, but they were not tired and wanted to go out to play. She had to drive them to the forbidden city and the summer palace. At around four or five o' clock, as requested by Li Tao, he went to the Huaqing and beijing university for a round of dinner at a local restaurant in the capital near the Beijing university.

When they got home at night, it was warm in the room. Everyone took off their down jackets and walked around in sweaters. Li Haitang turned on the tv and asked them to watch the tv series first. Then he went to take a bath.

When she came out of the shower, she saw Li Jianguo on the phone with her hometown. It was rare to hear him excitedly sharing what he had seen and heard with Li Yuanhua today. She sat on the sofa, wiping her hair and laughing.

Li Tao lay on his Changsha hair, looking extremely happy, and said, "Sister hoi tong, this sofa is really comfortable. I want to buy one at home later."

"Hometown?"

Li Tao blinked his eyes, thought about it, and shook his head, "We can't go back home. We don't usually stay at home. It's too wasteful to set up the sofa. If we don't take care of it often, we might get bitten by insects and ants."

I'll buy a wooden house in my hometown. I'll buy a house in the provincial capital and a soft sofa like this at home." She had wanted to buy a house for her family for a long time, but Li Jianguo refused to let her pay for anything, so she didn't bother about it, but she bought him a small car in the second half of this year.

"Yes. Dad told me that he said he would buy a house in the provincial capital in the coming year, and that jin qiao and I would both be admitted to the provincial capital for college." In fact, Li Tao wanted to study in a big city like the capital city, but considering his own results, it would be difficult, so he could only try to get into a provincial undergraduate university.

"Sure, it's okay to go to a university in the provincial capital. With a degree and a diploma, we'll talk about where to work in the future." Li Haitang himself would probably settle down in the capital or Hushi in the future. If they were in the provincial capital, they would be able to take care of dad and aunt Fen.

Duan Jinqiao, who was wearing a pink sweater, sat next to her and suddenly said, "Sister hoi tong, I want to study medicine. Do you think it's okay?"

"Sure, it's good for girls to study medicine." Li Haitang had never heard of her before and asked, "When did you start wanting to study medicine?"

Duan Jinqiao smiled sweetly, "I have a classmate whose mother is a surgeon who specializes in surgery. She holds a scalpel every day. When I hear her talk, I admire her, so I want to learn." Another reason she didn't say was that her father died of illness. She wanted to study medicine. If her family fell ill again in the future, she could help.

"Well, ambitious. It's good to study medicine, but it's also hard. You have to be prepared." Li Haitang was very supportive of her. If there was a doctor at home, she would be able to rest assured even if she did not come back from abroad in the future.

Li Tao's eyelashes trembled when he heard that Duan Jinqiao had made up his mind about his choice. He really wanted to go to military school, like Jiang Chuheng, but he had also heard the news that he would not be able to pass the exam. Moreover, with Li Ting, he couldn't get past the trial at all and rubbed his temples sadly.

"Li Tao, what do you think?" Although Li Haitang chatted with him a lot, he hadn't asked him what he was thinking. Now that he was in his second year of high school, he had to start thinking about it.

"I haven't thought about it yet. Let's talk about it later." Li Tao looked a little glum.

After Li Jianguo made the call, Liu Fen also called his mother's house. At around nine o' clock, Li Haitang urged everyone to go to bed. They wanted to see the national flag tomorrow morning, so they had to rest early that night.

At 4: 30 in the morning, the alarm clock in the bedroom rang. Li Haitang got up and put on his clothes, knocked on the other doors one by one, and quickly washed his face and brushed his teeth in this gap.

By the time everyone was wrapped up and left the house, it was exactly five o' clock, and it snowed heavily last night. Even if it was still not light, the road could still be seen clearly. Early in the morning, many sanitation workers were working hard to clean the streets, and the thick snow was being shoveled away by forklifts. Li Haitang drove slowly and only arrived at tian anmen square after half an hour.

By then, there were already many people waiting here, all dark and full of people, all with excited and pious faces.

Li Haitang pulled everyone forward as far as possible, found a place with a good view and stopped. He rubbed his face and put on the cotton mask in his pocket, revealing only two eyes.

Others did the same. The weather in the north was so cold that they could not imagine the winter in the three provinces of northeast china.

When the majestic and handsome soldiers of the chinese people's liberation army came out in a neat line, the audience stood in awe. As the red flag rose, many people unconsciously sang the national anthem, and a sense of heroism surged out of their hearts.

After watching the flag-raising ceremony, Li Haitang took everyone to breakfast and then went straight to the badaling great wall.

"Come on, everyone. Let's climb up the good hanpo early and go home to make lunch." Li Haitang also brought her camera today to take a few more photos for everyone. It was a gift from jiang chuheng on her birthday this year. It was very expensive. She didn't want to accept it at that time, but he forced her to take it.

"Okay." Li Tao and Duan Jinqiao were so happy that they rushed up first.

Li Haitang howled in the back, "Slow down. Don't rush. Save your strength. There's still a long way to go."

Li Jianguo was used to working at home. Climbing the mountain was not a tiring task. Liu fen was the only one who looked at the endless mountains and rivers.

Duan Jinqiao was only halfway up the wall when he lay on his stomach and gasped for air. His face was red and his white breath almost froze.

Li Haitang was not far behind her and walked over to pat her on the shoulder, "Jin qiao, slow down and take a rest."

"Yes."

Li Tao's physical strength was not bad. After climbing for nearly two hours, he was also a little tired. It wasn't long before Li Haitang overtook him. She was still the first to arrive at good hanpo. Li Tao climbed up ten minutes later. Li Haitang took a few snaps at him with the camera and took a few commemorative photos of him.

Liu Fen was so tired that she only crawled halfway and stopped resting. Everyone had to go back the same way to pick her up.

Back at home at 11: 00, he bought some food, oil, rice, vegetables and so on at the big market on the way, and opened fire at home this afternoon.

Liu Fen and duan jinqiao were too tired to move. This lunch was cooked by Li Haitang. The li family and their son helped her and didn't eat until 12: 30.

For the first meal in the new family, eight dishes and a soup were made, which was also a sign of good luck.

On the 29th morning of the twelfth lunar month, they went to the market together to buy new year's goods. There were many ingredients available in the capital. Besides buying chicken, duck, fish, and meat, Li Haitang also bought a lot of seafood, which was her favorite fresh taste. He also bought some big abalone, sea shrimp, and other fish, and planned to send some to god-grandfather and Master qi.

Liu Fen and the others bought some melon seeds and peanuts, all kinds of beautiful candies, couplet window flowers and so on, and also bought some wine for Li Jianguo.

In the afternoon, she took them to the department store to buy new clothes. Although everyone said not to buy them, they couldn't beat her. Everyone bought a new set of clothes. She also bought Liu Fen a set of cosmetics and some school supplies and milk powder for Li Tao and Duan Jinqiao.

After finishing his work at home, Li Haitang packed up the things he bought at home, greeted them, and went out with two bags of things.

The qi family lived very close to the mo family, only a few alleys away. Li Haitang parked his car in front of the mo family and knocked on the door. The nanny came to open the door and welcomed her in cheerfully.

Knowing that she was delivering new year's food, the two old men were grinning from ear to ear. Grandma wen was also a seafood lover. Seeing that the seafood she sent over was alive, she even praised her for being thoughtful. When she learned that her adoptive father and family were all here, she invited them to come to her house tomorrow for the new year and have a good time together.

Li Haitang agreed. Her grandparents were very kind. Her father had said that he should pay them a visit before. It was terrible to disturb their peace, so he wanted to come back for the new year.

He said goodbye to his grandparents and went to his hometown of qi. Master qi didn't like seafood very much, but he liked Hunan province bacon and chicken very much. During the turbulent ten years, he was sent down to the mountains in northern Hunan province. During that time, he had a hard time, but he had tasted it a few times, and he never forgot the taste.

Grandma qi didn't know how to make the bacon. Seeing the old man at home staring at the bacon, she was almost drooling. She pulled Li Haitang to help him make it for him to eat, and she followed suit.

Li Haitang cooked bacon, dried radish, garlic, and a steamed chicken and sausage.

It was not dinner time yet, and Master qi and his children and grandchildren were all grabbing their chopsticks to eat it. It was so delicious, there was no rice, so they just ate the food dry, but in a few minutes they ate up all three bowls of food.

"Haha..." Seeing Master qi appear to be enjoying himself, his four or five grandchildren and sons and daughters-in-law burst into laughter.

Li Haitang was also amused by him. Master qi was always serious all the time. He didn't expect to eat delicious food. It turned out that there was such a cute and funny side to it. This time, she only gave him one chicken and two pieces of bacon, and some fish and sausage. Seeing that old qi likes to eat so much, it seems that she should give him more next time.

She brought her new year's gift, and the Mo family and the qi family gave her a copy. She went home with two full bags.

Dinner was already prepared at home, waiting for her to come back for dinner. She put the two bags in the kitchen, and Liu Fen opened them immediately. She cleaned them up and put them in the fridge and cupboard according to the type.

After dinner, everyone gathered around to make dumplings and dumplings. Li Haitang was in the kitchen making pork buttons and marinated meat. There were also marinated meat in the market outside, but she still felt that her cooking was delicious. New year's eve, or do it yourself, it just seems lively.

Smelling the aroma from the kitchen, Li Tao, who was rubbing the dumplings, swallowed, "It's over. I'm hungry again."

Liu Fen chuckled, "When you're out of the pot, go eat a meat pad."

Li Haitang came out with a small bowl filled with some dishes and gave him a piece of button meat with chopsticks, "Come on, taste it and see if my skills have deteriorated."

Li Tao took a bite and enjoyed it with an intoxicated expression. After swallowing it, he shook his head vigorously, "No, it's the same as last year. It tastes super good."

Li Haitang gave each of the pieces of meat in the bowl to the others and ate the last one for himself. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "Mmm, it's delicious."

"Sister hoi tong, how many bowls of pork do you make this year?" Duan Jinqiao asked.

"I have to do more this year. I made two kinds of dried plum and sweet potato, ten bowls each. I want to send two bowls to chu heng and his family. Let's save a few bowls for ourselves to eat slowly during the spring festival." After that, she went back to the kitchen.

It was already twelve o' clock, and Li Haitang called everyone in and went back to their room to sleep.
