How can I go back to the past?

Chapter 25 Being Scolded (Please Read)

Li Le did not go in, but waited at the security booth outside the building.

Of course, he did not forget to call Cheng Fei first to tell Cheng Fei where he was.

"Fun." Soon Cheng Fei drove over.

In fact, when Li Le came, it was already time to get off work. If Cheng Fei hadn't known he was coming, he would have left long ago.

Li Le went over holding two glass jars.

Seeing the two glass jars, Cheng Fei's eyes lit up, and he quickly got out of the car to help Li Le open the door, saying, "Get in the car, I'll take you home."

"Okay! Just take me to the east intersection of Donghuamen Street." Li Le did not refuse.

If he doesn't let Cheng Fei take him there, he will either take a taxi or scan for a shared bicycle.

Besides, Cheng Fei’s house was not far from Li Le’s. When they reached the east intersection of Donghuamen Street, the two of them went west and north respectively.

"Okay!" Cheng Fei nodded, then turned to look at Li Le and asked, "Did you move to Donghuamen Street?"

"Yup!"

"Boy, the rent over there is not cheap."

Others may not know, but Cheng Fei must know! Because his home is not far from Donghuamen Street.

"It's not expensive. What's expensive is the storefront facing the street. The accommodation is still OK."

"Uh!" Cheng Fei was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's right, especially the houses in the alleys, the rent is cheaper."

Fortunately, Cheng Fei didn’t know where Li Le lived, otherwise he wouldn’t have thought so.

Because Li Le doesn't live in a hutong, but right outside Donghuamen Street.

As for the houses in the alleys, they are actually not cheap either, it mainly depends on the location.

The closer you are to the Forbidden City, even in the small alleys, the more expensive the prices are.

The main reason is that you can’t rent a house here at all. Most of the houses in the alleys are rented out to others or used to run homestays or family hotels.

Because it was just after get off work, the traffic jam was not very serious. Twenty minutes later, the jeep stopped at the intersection of Donghuamen Street.

"I'm going back, drive slowly." Li Le said to Cheng Fei before getting out of the car.

"I see. You're really long-winded."

Li Le got out of the car and waited until Cheng Fei drove away before turning around and walking inside.

Time passed day by day, and Saturday came in a blink of an eye. We had agreed to go to Cheng Fei's house in the evening.

So Li Le started preparing things early in the morning. Before that, Cheng's mother gave Li Le some gifts and red envelopes.

Now Li Le is not short of money, so he must prepare gifts.

After going to the mall and buying some supplements and cosmetics, Li Le didn't buy anything else, such as necklaces or watches.

Because Cheng's mother has no shortage of these things. Just from what Li Le has seen, Cheng's mother has worn five or six expensive watches of different styles.

Not to mention the necklace, which is basically changed every day. It can be seen from this that Cheng Fei's family is not short of money.

The cosmetics and supplements are also quite impressive. You should know that Li Le buys world-class brands.

As for Dad Cheng, he was easier to deal with. Dad Cheng loved drinking, so Li Le prepared two bottles of wine for him.

This is not ordinary wine, but Xifeng Liquor from more than 70 years ago, which has long been extinct at this time.

I guess even if you go to Xifeng Distillery, you won’t be able to find a bottle.

Li Le brought back ten bottles in total, and he would take two bottles with him. As for the rest, Li Le planned to send a few bottles back after a while. The reason why he didn't send it now was because Li Le didn't have an ID card. Now, if you want to send express delivery, you must have an ID card, otherwise it can't be sent.

At around five in the afternoon, Li Le set off with his things.

Today is Saturday, a day off, and the company is closed. Cheng Fei is probably at home at this time, so Li Le went there now.

Ten minutes later, Li Le arrived at Cheng Fei's house. The door was open, probably because he knew Li Le was coming and left it open.

Whenever Li Le comes here, he always feels like he's at home, so he just goes straight in.

Father Cheng was drinking tea in the yard. When he saw Li Le coming over, he quickly said, "Xiao Le is here. Come on, sit down and drink tea with me."

"Okay, uncle." Li Le thought about it, put down what he was holding, and walked over.

"Kid, just come if you want to. Why bring anything with you? I don't need anything like this." Father Cheng said unhappily.

Li Le knew that Father Cheng was blaming him for spending money recklessly, so he just touched his nose and didn't say anything back.

After Cheng's father finished nagging, Li Le said, "Uncle, you may not lack other things, but this time I brought something that you definitely don't have here, and you will like it."

"Oh! What is that?" asked Cheng's father in surprise.

"Look what this is?" Li Le picked up the things he had put down, and then took out two bottles of Xifeng.

Seeing the two bottles of Xifeng, Cheng's father's eyes lit up and he quickly took them and looked at them carefully. After about two minutes, he looked up at Li Le and asked, "This is Xifeng from the 1950s."

"Uh!" Li Le was stunned for a moment.

Li Le didn't expect that Cheng's father could tell that this was Xifeng from the 1950s. You know, the wine produced at that time basically didn't have the date printed on the label.

Boxes of wine will have a piece of paper printed with the production date and inspection certificate.

Even if it is printed on the label, it was stamped with ink. After so many years, the date is no longer clearly visible.

The ten bottles of Xifeng that Li Le brought back did not have production dates on them. If one wanted to recognize them, one could only look at the appearance of the bottles and the labels.

However, it is not easy to recognize it from these two aspects, unless you are very knowledgeable about Xifeng Liquor.

"Uncle, how did you know that?" Li Le asked.

"So, I didn't make a mistake?"

Father Cheng wasn’t particularly sure before, after all, the Xifeng Liquor from the 1950s is simply impossible to find now.

But after Li Le asked this, he was sure that this was the Xifeng Liquor from the 1950s.

"Uncle, you are amazing. This is indeed Xifeng from the 1950s, and it was produced in 1950."

"Hiss!" Father Cheng took a deep breath and said, "Wow, this is made in 1950. It's a good thing! No, I have to put it away first."

For a wine lover, wine is a treasure, especially this kind of extinct wine, needless to say.

"Xiao Le, you little bastard, you're spending money recklessly again." At this time, Mother Cheng came out of the kitchen and scolded Li Le.

In fact, Mother Cheng had known that Li Le was coming, but she was busy in the kitchen just now. As soon as she finished her work in the kitchen, she hurried out.

Just seeing Li Le coming over with something, he cursed him.

"Auntie! It really didn't cost much, just some supplements and a set of cosmetics." Li Le said with a wry smile.

Li Le knew this would happen when he went to buy these things.
