This is an era where getting into college means soaring to great heights, an era where opportunities abound for rapid success, and also an era where genuine, unwavering emotions still exist;

Chapter 206 Who is nobler?
The next day, Wen Leyu was going to see the Lantern Festival with Li Ye. She held up two cashmere coats and asked Li Ye, "Which one do you think is suitable for me to wear today?"
Li Ye shook his head and said, "Neither is suitable. It's very cold today. I'd better wear a big cotton jacket!"
Wen Leyu pursed his lips, rolled his eyes, snorted softly, and went into the house with his cashmere coat.
After a while, a beautiful urban lady wearing a gray cashmere coat, calfskin boots and a silk scarf appeared in front of Li Ye.
Li Ye also had to admit that Wen Leyu's outfit was really beautiful.
However, the two cashmere coats that Li Ye made in Hong Kong Island were not very thick, and their warmth-retaining effect was definitely not as good as that of down jackets.
It snowed in Beijing yesterday, and today is the coldest day when the snow melts. Li Ye is afraid that Wen Leyu will get frozen.
But unfortunately, beauty that freezes people down knows no bounds in any era, and even girls like Wen Leyu are not immune to it.
"Put on another hat, or we can't go out."
Li Ye could only settle for the next best thing and ask Wen Leyu to put on a hat. According to scientists, a cotton hat can keep out as much cold as a coat.
"OK."
Wen Leyu made an "OK" gesture with his hand and quickly found a furry hat, which matched well with his smart grey coat, adding a cute feeling.
"Let's go! Beautiful lady, be careful not to blind the eyes of a bunch of single guys!"
"whee."
The two of them went out hand in hand, and first drove to the small restaurant in Chaoyang District, where they offered sacrifices to their five internal organs under the banner of Wen Guohua.
By the time everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, it was already dark. Citizens, lacking entertainment, flocked to several Lantern Festival festivals.
Li Ye and Wen Leyu followed the crowd into the Lantern Festival. As they walked, influenced by the young couples on the street, their arms naturally linked together.
After more than a year of getting along, many things have come naturally. The remaining things that cannot be overcome are not a matter of feelings, but a matter of the times.
However, most of the couples nowadays are serious about their love, and there are many cases of someone suffering from a serious illness after a breakup.
As for couples in later generations, even if you spend so much time with your partner that your kidneys become weak, in the end you might only get a casual response like “we are not suitable for each other.”
The two of them strolled along and arrived at the snack street. Various vendors selling snacks were freezing, but their hawking voices were very loud.
"Xiaoyu, do you want to eat candied haws?"
"Yes."
"Xiaoyu, do you want to eat fried cake?"
"Uh-huh."
"Xiaoyu, do you want to eat stinky tofu?"
"Eat it yourself! Stay away from me."
“.”
Wen Leyu finished a candied haws, and Li Ye gave her the remaining half of his. She didn't dislike it at all and ate it all up in a few slurps.
After eating, he licked the sugar residue on his lips with his tongue, which really melted Li Ye's heart.
"Hey, is that Li Dayong over there?"
Wen Leyu suddenly pushed Li Ye and pointed to the left front.
Li Ye turned his head to the left and saw Li Dayong's bear-like body.
Wen Leyu asked, "Do you want to go over and join him?"
Li Ye shook his head: "Forget it, don't bother them."
"them?"
Wen Leyu tiptoed to look and found the girl next to Li Dayong.
That girl was naturally Li Dayong’s sophomore senior Lin Qiuyan.
Wen Leyu asked curiously, "Who is that woman? Do you know her?"
"I saw him once on the train back home a few years ago."
Li Ye did not hide anything and recounted what happened on the train years ago.
Wen Leyu pondered for a moment and said with certainty: "It can't be said that she is wrong, but she is not the same kind of person as us. Did Li Dayong misjudge her? I remember that he is not stupid!"
"Who can tell about matters like feelings?"
Li Ye sighed and pulled Wen Leyu in another direction.
Li Dayong is definitely not stupid, on the contrary he is very smart. But he has never been in love since he was a child. It is inevitable that he is too obsessed with his first time, and no outsider can help him.
As Li Ye and Wen Leyu walked, they found a temporary stall on the street ahead. A sign in front of the stall read, "Lamb soup noodles, 30 cents a bowl, 50 cents for two bowls."
Two charcoal stoves modified from large oil barrels, one stewing a pot of mutton soup, the other boiling a pot of noodle soup,
The gas light from the two carbide lamps illuminated the surroundings brightly. Two figures, one big and one small, were busy working in the light. Who else could it be but Chen Jinhua and Jiang Xiaoyan?
Wen Leyu also saw it, and then she asked Li Ye: "Which aunt is Xiaoyan's mother? Is she also in Beijing?"
Last spring, Chen Jinhua and Jiang Xiaoyan's grandfather went to Qingshui County No. 2 Middle School to arrange for Jiang Xiaoyan to transfer schools. Wen Leyu was present and met Chen Jinhua at the time.
"Yes, Xiaoyan thought that her mother would be better off selling noodles in Beijing instead of selling baskets in her hometown! So she brought her mother to Beijing."
"Then I have to go and try it."
Wen Leyu walked to the front of the stall happily and said with a smile: "Boss, give me a bowl of noodle soup, the kind that's free!"
“.”
In Sun Xianjin's "Sea Cucumber Fried Noodles" at the New Year's Eve party, there is a line: "What doesn't cost money?"
"The noodle soup is free,"
Wen Leyu burst into laughter when he heard it, and now he put it into practice to amuse Jiang Xiaoyan.
Jiang Xiaoyan was busy and had a headache! Suddenly she saw Wen Leyu laughing and joking, and she was stunned for a moment before she reacted.
"Wen Leyu, you are here to see the Lantern Festival as well! Sit here first, I'll give you a bowl of hot mutton soup to warm you up."
"No, no, just give me a bowl of noodle soup. I ate too much tonight and can't drink."
"If you can't drink it, ask Li Ye to help you. He has a big appetite."
Jiang Xiaoyan was very familiar with Wen Leyu and had no shame, so she quickly made her a large bowl of mutton soup, most of which was meat.
Wen Leyu rubbed his stomach and felt that there was still some space, so he started drinking without being pretentious.
The people around her were basically in the same situation as her. The weather was a bit cold, and many people came from far suburbs to see the lights. A bowl of hot mutton noodle soup was both warm and filling, so the mother and daughter's business was quite good.
Jiang Xiaoyan wanted to scoop another bowl for Li Ye, but Li Ye quickly stopped her and said, "Don't scoop it for me. Xiaoyu will only drink the soup, so keep the rest of the meat for me!"
"Hey, fine then. If you're hungry, just scoop it up for yourself! I'll make noodles for others first."
"You keep busy."
Li Ye brought a stool and sat at a small table with Wen Leyu, watching her drink the soup slowly.
At this time, Chen Jinhua whispered to Jiang Xiaoyan: "Look at this girl, and then look at that sexy girl just now.
Drink the soup yourself and save the meat for the man, this is a good marriage! That Li Dayong will suffer in the future!"
Li Ye had sharp ears and heard what Chen Jinhua said, so he asked, "Did Dayong come here just now?"
Jiang Xiaoyan nodded, said "hmm" and went to get busy.
That's not right.
Li Ye stood up and walked over to ask, "What's wrong, Xiaoyan, did something happen just now?"
Jiang Xiaoyan said sullenly: "No, Li Dayong came over and chatted for a few minutes and then left, nothing happened."
"You can still hide this little trick from me?"
Li Ye smiled and asked Chen Jinhua directly: "Aunt, we are all straightforward people. What happened just now?"
Chen Jinhua was a straightforward person, so she simply said, "It's nothing, it's just that the girl who was with Li Dayong just now said something unpleasant.
She said that the government gave my daughter Xiaoyan a salary, so she shouldn’t be a peddler anymore. I was so angry that I argued with her, and she even said that Xiaoyan brought shame to college students.”
Li Ye was surprised and said, "What the country gives Xiaoyan is a living allowance. This stall is your business. How can it be shameful for my daughter to help my business?"
"That's right, that's right. Why didn't I figure it out just now? My Xiaoyan is a soft-hearted girl. She felt bad when she was bullied by that girl. Next time she meets that Yan, I'll let her go."
"Oh, I don't feel bad at all," Jiang Xiaoyan said angrily, "I'm just afraid of causing trouble for Li Dayong. Mom, can you please stop making random guesses? We earn money with our own hands, whoever wants to gossip can do so."
"Yes, yes, I guessed wrong. I was wrong. Ni'er, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Seeing that the mother and daughter were having a little quarrel, Li Ye didn't have any good solutions.
A tough and strong person may sometimes feel a little inferior in his heart. Jiang Xiaoyan's personality is not as open-minded as Chen Jinhua. If she encounters some bad things occasionally, it will definitely take time to digest them.
"Li Ye, come here and eat the meat."
Wen Leyu suddenly called out to Li Ye.
After Li Ye went over and sat down, Wen Leyu stood up and took off his cashmere coat worth several thousand dollars.
"Hold me for a moment."
Wen Leyu stuffed his coat into Li Ye's arms, walked to Jiang Xiaoyan who was hurriedly rolling noodles, picked up the noodles and helped put them into the pot.
"Hey, Wen Leyu doesn't need you."
But Wen Leyu didn't listen to Jiang Xiaoyan at all. He cooked the noodles in no time, scooped the noodles into a bowl, added noodle soup and mutton soup, and served it to the customer. His series of actions were quite efficient.
"Mutton soup noodles, mutton soup noodles, 30 cents a bowl, 50 cents for two bowls!"
“Puff~”
Li Ye had a mouthful of mutton stuck in his throat and he almost couldn't swallow it.
Can you imagine that the daughter of an administrative level 5 cadre would shout at a stall in a night market?
It's like a delivery guy crashed his car and was about to miss the orders, but a guy driving a Mercedes stopped his car, changed into the delivery guy's work clothes, went up to the 18th floor in one breath, and delivered all the orders to the delivery guy.
We are all human beings, who is nobler than who?
In a short while, Wen Leyu had scooped out four or five bowls of noodles and paid the bills for four or five customers.
Then he glared at Li Ye and said, "You haven't finished eating yet! Can't you see that I'm too busy?"
“Mmmmm~”
Li Ye tilted his head back and poured all the remaining meat in the bowl into his mouth, then came over to help with puffed cheeks.
Four people were busy around a small stall on a winter night. I don't know how much warmth was generated and how much warmth flowed into someone's heart.
The child has a fever, and we are in a rush, and it is even later.
