Su Yuhe was silent for a moment. There was nothing more to say since she was already pregnant.
Although Su Yuhe and Xu Yun have a good relationship, Li Yan and Jiang Lin are not very familiar with each other and do not have much contact.
But since they are both men, it won’t be too awkward to meet each other, and they can still say hello and a few words.
Speaking of which, Li Yan was very surprised by Jiang Lin's current transformation.
He used to be an educated youth sent to the countryside. Jiang Lin was a landlord with a bad reputation in the countryside. He was used as a negative example in the commune and was someone people kept their distance from.
Jiang Lin has now transformed himself and is about to settle down in the capital.
Li Yan couldn't help but sigh, as if even if he got a quota for workers, peasants and soldiers to go to college, it was still not as good as Jiang Lin marrying a wife from the capital.
It seemed that Li Yan would feel more balanced if he selfishly attributed Jiang Lin's achievements to women.
Jiang Lin didn't care what the other party thought. Since Su Yuhe brought him to receive Li Yan and his wife, he just had to receive them seriously.
Because of the flag-raising ceremony, Tiananmen Square was packed with people.
Jiang Lin carried Baosheng on his shoulders and let Baosheng ride on his neck to watch the national flag raising ceremony.
Baosheng held Jiang Lin's head and turned to smile at Su Yuhe: "Mom, I saw so much."
Su Yuhe smiled and asked him, "What did you see a lot of?"
Baosheng sometimes couldn't explain everything clearly, and would point at the people around him and say, "These uncles and aunts."
"Baosheng, you see so many uncles and aunts?" Su Yuhe looked up at Baosheng. "Look over there, there are a few brothers coming out holding red national flags. That red one is the national flag."
Baosheng looked over, pointed with his little hand and said, "National flag?"
Su Yuhe smiled and nodded.
Wait until the red flag bearers march to the red flagpole and wave the red flag.
Baosheng cried out in surprise, pointed at the red flag that was flying away, turned his head and called out "Mom" excitedly.
Su Yuhe explained to him: "That's the red flag. Later, brother Red Flag Bearer will raise the red flag high."
Baosheng opened his eyes wide, as if he didn't understand what it meant to rise high.
The inspiring national anthem was played from the loudspeaker, and the people below spontaneously sang along.
The red flag also slowly rose with the singing.
Baosheng shouted excitedly: "Get up, Mom, the red flag is rising!"
Su Yuhe gestured to him to silence him: "When the national flag is raised, you must be quiet and not make any noise."
Baosheng quickly covered his mouth, shook his head, and turned around to watch the national flag-raising ceremony carefully.
Xu Yun looked at Su Yuhe enviously: "You taught Baosheng very well."
She sighed slightly: "I regret not bringing Xiyun with me. It's such a good opportunity. If I don't let her watch the flag-raising ceremony together, I don't know when she will be able to come to the capital again."
Su Yuhe smiled: "There will be a chance."
Xu Yun pulled his lip and turned to look at Li Yan with dissatisfaction: "It's all your fault. If you insisted, wouldn't we have brought Xu Yun here? It's just one more child. Your mother doesn't know why she feels bad for sitting in a hard seat with us. It doesn't cost her money to buy her ticket."
Li Yan secretly glanced at Su Yuhe and the others. Seeing that they were not paying attention to this side, he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to Xu Yun, "Xiyun is fine at home with her mother looking after her. If you want to come to the capital again in the future, I will bring you here. Now we have important things to do."
Xu Yun stopped talking and turned to watch the flag-raising ceremony.
As the national flag rose to the top, the red flag bearer tied it up and marched out in formation, marching in step.
There are other programs, such as the ceremonial baton teams organized by the art troupes of some universities and certain units.
Su Yuhe didn't look at anyone from her own school, so she probably didn't have any.
Later, I could hear the Chairman’s speech, and Xu Yun felt better. He felt that he had gained a lot from choosing to come here during the National Day.
There are more programs for the National Day flag-raising ceremony than usual.
After watching the whole thing, everyone who came in person was infected by the atmosphere.
My heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
The people who came to watch the ceremony left with a sense of reluctance.
Jiang Lin took the initiative and said, "I have reserved a table at Quanjude. Let's go eat first."
"Quanjude?" Xu Yun was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly, "Isn't that a famous roast duck restaurant?"
Su Yuhe smiled and nodded: "Since you are coming to the capital, I must treat you to local specialties."
Xu Yun felt a little embarrassed: "How can this be possible?"
"No problem."
A few people went to Quanjude, the restaurant that Su Yuhe and her friends often went to.
Xu Yun looked at the decoration inside the roast duck restaurant, which was quite unique. "This decoration is really nice. It must be very expensive."
Su Yuhe paused slightly: "It's okay, just a meal once in a while."
Jiang Lin booked a table next to the bed for dining instead of a private room. He wanted Xu Yun and the others to feel more relaxed, as he was worried they would feel restrained if he booked a private room.
Su Yuhe understood what Jiang Lin meant and thought that he had done a great job.
They ordered a whole roast duck, along with several side dishes and soup.
The roast duck was served.
It was the first time for Xu Yun and Li Yan to see this authentic capital roast duck. Looking at the large plate of sliced roast duck and some dipping sauces and side dishes, they didn't know where to start.
Su Yuhe was so perceptive that she almost instantly guessed that Xu Yun might not eat it.
She took the initiative to speak, easing Xu Yun's embarrassment: "You are from outside the area. Is this your first time eating this kind of roast duck? It's quite interesting. It's eaten like a roll."
As she spoke, she took a piece of lotus leaf pancake, dipped the green onion in the sauce, put it on the lotus leaf pancake together with the cucumber shreds, then put a piece of roast duck in it and rolled it up with the lotus leaf pancake.
She stuffed the rolled roast duck into Baosheng's hand and asked him to hold it and eat it himself.
Baosheng held the roast duck and started to chew it with his little round mouth.
It looks delicious.
Xu Yun smiled: "Baosheng is not picky about food at all, he eats with great relish."
After Su Yuhe demonstrated it once, Xu Yun and the others also learned how to roll it.
Xu Yun ate one and said, "Hey, this is really delicious. It's really worthy of being a local delicacy. We also have roast duck at home, but it doesn't taste like this."
Halfway through the meal, Xu Yun poked Li Yan under the table and gave Li Yan a hint with his eyes.
Li Yan understood, stood up and said he wanted to go to the bathroom.
Su Yuhe asked, "Do you know where the restroom is? Brother Lin, take Li Yan there?"
Li Yan waved his hand: "I saw it when I came in just now."
Li Yan came back not long after he went out and secretly shook his head at Xu Yun.
Xu Yun frowned. She had originally asked Li Yan to pay the bill. Does this mean that the purchase failed?
It is estimated that Su Yuhe and the others bought it in advance and did not give Xu Yun and the others any chance at all.
Su Yuhe's original plan was to take them to see the Forbidden City after watching the flag-raising ceremony, and then climb the Great Wall tomorrow.
Now that she knew Xu Yun was pregnant, Su Yuhe was worried that the pregnant woman would be tired, so she asked Xu Yun if she could go.
Xu Yun is not tired at all.
I was even a little excited. It was my first time in the capital, I had roast duck, and I had so much time in the afternoon. "I'm fine. I can go to the Forbidden City and see where the emperor lived."
