Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 221 A lot of things happen on New Year’s Day ([-])

Today is the new year. Zhu Xuefeng and Xia Yuhong stood on the square admiring the beautiful scenery. Today is also the weekend, so they took their dormitory classmates for a day shopping during the day.

Walking from Xidan to Wangfujing, there were bustling crowds everywhere. It was the New Year and something had to be added. Zhu Xuefeng did not join in the fun. His younger brother and sister had finished their winter preparations.

All units are on holiday, but the colorful flags and banners at the door are still full, and the characters "Happy New Year's Day" are everywhere. The crowd is also smiling and laughing all the way. The festive atmosphere is still very strong.

The bright glass windows of various shops along the way opened the eyes of several roommates. Only Fang Jiaming was not surprised and even murmured.

"It's just more. It's not like we don't have them in our hometown."

"Do you have one in your hometown? This piece of glass is like a wall! Anyway, the glass display window in our place is just a big window, floor-to-ceiling, I have never seen it before."

"Who are you looking down on? We also have a lot of people who have landed, but not so many."

"Okay, Xiaofang and his family are a well-established big city, and they are close to Xiangjiang. It's not unusual to have this. Xiaofang, no one looks down on anyone, but we don't go out much and don't have much experience."

The boss reconciled him promptly, otherwise it would have been embarrassing for a few students to argue about the glass display window on the street.

The floor-to-ceiling large glass display windows were still very bright. It was only after Zhu Xuefeng came here that he realized that large display windows of this era were all over the capital.

We then took a detour to visit Qianmen and Dashilan, and finally took photos with the square and the city tower, paid homage to the monuments and reliefs, and took a look at the City Hall from a distance. The City Hall was built just over two years ago and is very impressive. Unfortunately, we can only see it from a distance.

The newspaper said that the Forbidden City would be open this year. Everyone rushed there excitedly, but it didn't open. They were stopped before they even got there, saying that the specific opening time had not been announced yet.

A group of people in the middle happily squeezed into the flavor restaurant in Dashilar to have a meal. It was really crowded inside. The key was that there was nothing left. Zhu Xuefeng had made something, so he had no choice but to go out and buy some from several restaurants. , and finally everyone’s stomachs were filled.

"How about it? If we still have energy, let's go to the Temple of Heaven and the Temple of Earth and see them both."

Zhu Xuefeng was still inviting the guests enthusiastically, but the boss shook his head. He had to make another trip and it would take him half a day to finish it.

"Save it for next time. It's okay this time. We have to go back by car. I feel a little sorry for disturbing you for a day and spending so much money on you. The key is that my childhood sweetheart also followed me for a day, haha."

The boss was talking less and less attentively now. The girl was still there, so he interrupted Zhu Xuefeng. Unexpectedly, Zhu Xuefeng was not so thick-skinned.

"What's the matter, Jealousy? Jealousy can go to school to find someone who likes him. Do you want Xiaoxia to introduce him to you?"

"Okay, if you're cruel, let's go and give you two some time."

The boss fled with his classmates in the dormitory, and joking laughter could be heard from a distance.

In fact, it's not too late, it's only after two o'clock, the sun is not very warm, and the light north wind blows, the temperature is even lower, so I help to tighten my cotton-padded clothes.

Xia Yuhong walked around the square with her.

"How are my classmates? They're pretty good."

Xia Yuhong thought for a while before answering with a smile.

"It's not bad, especially since each of them has a good belly. After eating so much of you, I won't have enough food stamps this month."

"It's enough. I have saved a lot. I have already arranged for today's expenses. Why, now you want to take care of my expenses. Are you worried that I have spent too much?"

Xia Yuhong rolled her eyes.

"Who cares about you? I'm just worried that you will develop a habit of spending too much money, and then I'm worried that the tickets in your pocket will be gone. If this old man doesn't have some money and tickets in his pocket, he won't be a tough man, and he won't be able to straighten his waist. "

Zhu Xuefeng choked for a moment. There was no problem with the money and tickets, but he was usually not so lavish. Today, he was a little more arbitrary. It was only because his brothers were so greedy.

Seeing Zhu Xuefeng's expression change, Xia Yuhong hurriedly came over again and came up to hold his arm.

"I didn't say that you were lavish. You should have your fair share of entertaining classmates and friends. Gentlemen, you have to be generous. I just care about it. I'm afraid you will go hungry if you don't have the tickets. I am richer now and will give it to you later." Seeing Xia Yuhong holding her arm, this was the first time in the world that she looked into the other person's beautiful big eyes.

"What the hell, I'm not afraid of people laughing at me today, and I'm still holding on to you."

Xia Yuhong blushed and curled her lips towards the monument.

Many people took photos in front of the monument, and there were several couples holding hands. Working together is a role model.

“You can keep the tickets for now, I still have them, so I’ll have no problem eating.

Looking at the tower and the great man in front of him, Xia Yuhong said something out of nowhere.

"By the way, it's a new year and we are both one year older. What do you have in mind next?"

Zhu Xuefeng looked at Xia Yuhong's delicate face with a smile and couldn't help but make a joke.

"What do you think? One of us is not old enough, and the other is students, so we cannot get a marriage certificate."

"Go to hell, who told you to say this."

Xia Yuhong chased and started to fight. Zhu Xuefeng ran a few steps and saw many people looking over, so he had to squat down and hold his head and admit defeat.

"Okay, I said, I said, go back and review hard, learn more knowledge, try to get good grades, and then have a happy New Year."

When it came to the New Year, Xia Yuhong stopped and her mood slowly changed, looking a little gloomy.

"What's the matter? If you have something to say, please don't hold it in your heart."

Xia Yuhong kicked the air, looking a little upset.

"Originally I wanted to spend the New Year with you this year and do some shopping, but now I may have to go back with my mother."

"Is it still a matter of grandma? Didn't you get better after being hospitalized?"

Xia Yuhong felt a little uncomfortable and raised her head, slightly red.

"I also want to go back and see my grandma. When I was a child, my parents were busy and no one cared about me. It was my grandma who raised me. I hope she can get better..."

He was a little choked up as he spoke, and since he couldn't hold him for comfort, Zhu Xuefeng was also at a loss.

After a while, Xia Yuhong recovered, took out a handkerchief, and gently wiped away her tears.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. We have to go back to school in a while. Let's go home first. After being out for a day, my parents should worry."

"Why don't you want to bring the old man to the city for a visit?"

A pebble finally appeared in front of him. It was bad luck. Sure enough, Xia Yuhong kicked the pebble away. Gululu rolled far away and hid by the roadside, never daring to show his face again.

Xia Yuhong sighed and played with the handkerchief.

"I'm not talking about whether my grandma can withstand such a long-distance journey, let's just talk about her. She keeps shouting that it's hard to leave her homeland, and fallen leaves must return to their roots, etc., but she can't get her to come to the capital for treatment."

Also, the elderly are reluctant to leave their homeland. Thousands of years of habits and traditions cannot be persuaded.

The two of them slipped into the Palace of Culture and wandered around for a long time.

"Let's go. It's still eight o'clock. I'll pick you up. Wait at home."
