Li Jianghai was stunned. He leaned over to Li Guifang and whispered, "Is there something wrong with this guy's tongue? How can he praise the smell of swill?"
Li Guifang sneered but said nothing!
As for people, Beijing is the supreme existence for those who come from small places!
In the eyes of many outsiders, even a fart in Beijing smells fragrant.
Even if they were served a pile of shit, they would still praise it for its good looks and call it a tonic pill.
Li Jianghai was still muttering to himself, and every cell in his body was clamoring out his misunderstanding of Douzhi and that person!
"Hurry up and eat the doughnut in front of you," Li Guifang said, picking up a doughnut with her chopsticks and putting it into Li Jianghai's bowl. "Don't waste food. You paid for it."
The crunching sound didn't completely dispel the strange taste in my mouth.
He smacked his lips and instantly changed the subject, "Hey, old lady, why are train tickets to Beijing so hard to buy? We've already lined up so early..."
They mainly came to send Li Mingli to register at the school. Later, she accidentally participated in a competition and signed a contract. Now that things were almost done, they were ready to buy a ticket to go home.
Who would have thought that I would have to queue up at the train station before dawn this morning.
The scene at the train station was really packed, with people three layers deep inside and three layers deep outside the windows, all with their arms outstretched, holding up money and shouting.
This scene is really incomparable to the railway station in Ji City!
Their legs were numb from standing so long, and they finally moved to the window. The ticket seller, without even looking up, handed out two hard-seat tickets for a seven-day departure.
There was no choice, the two men held the two thin train tickets and walked out of the ticket hall sighing!
"What should I do? I have to wait another week." Li Jianghai squatted beside the flower bed in the train station square and took out his pipe worriedly.
Li Guifang was quicker to think things through than he was. She carefully put the ticket into her inner pocket and wrapped it up with a handkerchief: "If I can't buy it, then I can't buy it. There's no point in getting anxious.
What else can we do? Just wait! With the country's construction going on, there are many people traveling back and forth, and tickets have been in short supply for a long time.
If you ask me, that’s fine, just right!”
"Just right?" Li Jianghai looked up at him, confused!
Li Guifang's eyes rolled, and she began to coax Li Jianghai, "Oh, isn't this just right? I was busy with work before, and I didn't have enough fun and didn't even take a good look around.
It's a rare opportunity for us to come to Beijing, and now that we have plenty of time, shouldn't we take a good look around?
Also, we have to have more meals with Mingli!
Think about it, this is the first time your daughter is away from home so far away, and she has to stay in school for a semester. As her parents, we just leave like this, and do you really feel at ease?
We have time now, so why not accompany her to adjust to college life? "
These words really touched Li Jianghai's heart.
As Li Jianghai was talked to, his eyes became firm. He listed a bunch of "legitimate" and fatherly reasons. The more he spoke, the more he felt that it was worthwhile and necessary to stay for seven days!
How could this be considered a delay? It was clearly precious time given by Heaven, allowing them to more confidently entrust their little girl to this big city.
When Li Guifang saw that the time was right, her heart was filled with joy, but she had a serious expression of "great minds think alike" on her face and nodded repeatedly.
"That's right! As parents, what we do is to feel at ease! Let's stay a few more days, observe more, ask more questions, and then we'll have a clearer understanding and sleep soundly when we go home, right?"
She cleverly wrapped her selfish desire of "watching a young boy grow up" into the warm coat of "parents fulfilling their responsibilities and accompanying them to adapt."
Moreover, the coat fits him perfectly, making Li Jianghai wear it willingly and even giving him a sense of responsibility and mission.
Seeing that Li Jianghai was completely absorbed in the role, Li Guifang struck while the iron was hot and quickly took out the plan: "There's more! This is a university! When will we have the chance to visit the university?
University is the best place to cultivate one's sentiments! We must spend more time here to cultivate our sentiments and feel the outstanding people and beautiful scenery!
I'll call the reception desk at Lili's school and tell her the... uh... good news!
Let her go home from school... Oh no, don't run around after class, let's go find her and have a good meal tonight to celebrate!"
She was calculating in her mind: if she wanted to go to the Foreign Languages University for a "visit and study", wouldn't she choose around four or five in the afternoon, when the sun was shining and the stadium was crowded?
Li Jianghai was completely unaware of the old woman's "selfishness". He felt that what she said made sense, and his anxiety subsided. He even began to feel that these extra seven days were indeed an extra benefit given by God.
"Okay! I'll listen to you! I have to take a good look at where my daughter is working hard! Let's open our eyes too!
Our daughter wants to study in such a good place in the future!"
Li Guifang was so happy in her heart, but she had to keep a straight face, saying, "It's all for the children and to broaden their horizons."
Li Guifang was very happy in her heart, but she pretended to be calm on her face, as if "everything is for the children"!
"Then stop wasting time here. Go back to the guesthouse, clean up, and look your best when you go see your daughter! Don't let the classmates think our Lili's parents are slovenly!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's go back!" Li Jianghai immediately stood up, patted the dust off his pants, and straightened his back a lot.
The two of them suddenly felt the sky become bluer and their steps became lighter, so they turned around and walked towards the guesthouse.
On the way back to the guesthouse, they passed by this breakfast shop where there was always a queue.
I always thought the smell was weird before, but I couldn’t stand the crowds of people queuing up every day, so I thought it might be something that smelled bad but tasted good. After all, everyone who has tried it says it’s good!
There were a lot of people in the past few days, and they were in a hurry and had no time to queue up. This time, it was just a coincidence!
Seeing that there were just two empty seats, the two looked at each other and took a step forward almost at the same time!
This is a rare opportunity. If you don’t try it now, when will you? I clicked on their shop sign!
But this time the money was really wasted!
On the other side, Lin Yaqin managed to cook breakfast despite everyone's embarrassment!
