MTL - Accidentally born in the ’60s-Chapter 71 Journey to the Imperial City

As soon as Li Muwu finished speaking, everyone suddenly laughed, and Mrs. Li glanced at Li Muwu angrily, not knowing what to say about him: "How can I leave you alone? It's been a few months since you retired. Don't delay, go through the retirement formalities in advance and let Mingguang from the third family take your class. It would be best if he can be admitted to a university in the future. Serious work."

Li Musen scratched his head next to him, and smiled at Li Muwu a little embarrassedly: "Well, I thank the fourth brother for my second boy."

Has Li Muwu come back to his senses: "Then I'll quit?"

"No, no." Zhen Zhen immediately smiled and said, "Just follow your daughter and I will go to the imperial capital to enjoy happiness."

Li Muwen's family was startled by a family of college students before they even said anything about the courtyard house when they got home. Li Muwen said a few good words again and again, and looked excited as if he had been admitted to a university. University, especially the two schools of National University and Imperial College, can be described as the childhood dream of most Chinese people.

Li Muwen did not go to school when he was a child. He still followed the political commissar to recognize some words during the war. After liberation, he went to night school and then to the military school.

Is there any difference in culture during the war? Li Muwen realized the difference when he went to the military academy to learn military research and strategic research. Therefore, when he returned to his hometown that year, in order to make the family more talented, he directly transferred Mingxi to the best high school in Bingcheng, just so that he could be admitted to the military school. Li Muwen's own two sons are also college students who graduated from the military academy. They already have positions at a young age and have a promising future in the army.

The two sons of Li Muwen's family, Ming Jun and Ming Ji, were both born after the liberation. At that time, Li Muwen's position was not low, so Ming Jun and Ming Ji's two brothers lived and educated from childhood. it is good. Li Muwen felt that the environment and schools that the five children of Li Muwu’s family grew up in were definitely not as good as those of the Ming Army and Ming Ji. Under such circumstances, all five of Li Muwu’s children were admitted to universities, which shows how many A child is usually more solid and hard-working when he goes to school.

Li Muwen brought out the Maotai brought by Ming Jun: "This is the biggest happy event of our old Li family, we have to celebrate today, and when the new year is over, we will return to the imperial capital, mother will Live in my house with my third brother and let me be filial and filial to you."

Li Muwen's wife Xue Wenhua frowned slightly and didn't speak when she heard this. She is not someone who dislikes her hometown, but with a family of six or seven people, the family can't be stuffed. The two said that living together is really frustrating.

Although Mrs. Li didn't see Xue Wenhua's expression, she refused: "No need, we, the old and the young, live in your house and Wenhua is tired. , we are also not comfortable. When you came back for the Chinese New Year last year, Zhen Zhen took two large yellow croakers dug from the mountains and asked you to buy a house, did you buy it?"

The old lady Li’s family must first settle in the courtyard when they arrive in the imperial capital. The old lady Li simply made it clear and let everyone know that it was Zhen Zhen’s house. Not and beautiful.

Li Muwen didn't speak, the whole family fry the pot again: "Big yellow croaker? Big yellow croaker is a gold bar, right?" Li Musen asked dumbfounded: "We've only heard of this stuff but haven't seen it, mother you. Why didn't you show us what it looked like before?"

"What does Huang Chengcheng look like?" Mrs. Li blocked her back: "Besides, what does this have to do with you guys? This big yellow croaker has already asked the boss to exchange money to buy a house, and directly wrote the name of Zhen Zhen. No one should make a crooked idea, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

Zhang Chunhua looked at Mrs. Li's stern eyes, his lips moved, and he wanted to swallow the words, but he was really unwilling: "How old is she, she should not be home if she picked up the big yellow croaker. Well, can you really give her a child?"

"It's really what she can do!" Old lady Li looked at her and sneered: "If you are not convinced, you will dig it up the mountain, how much you dig is yours, and we are not in harmony. You divide."

Looking at Zhang Chunhua's black face, Wang Xinwen happily ran along with the noodles: "Mingbei, go and find a shovel and a basket for the old aunt, wait for the old aunt to go Digging for gold in the mountains."

Li Mulin glared at Zhang Chunhua, and quickly said with a smile: "Mother, you know that Mingshu's mother has this virtue, don't know her in general."

Zhen Zhen saw that her fourth uncle was a little embarrassed, and quickly changed the subject: "Master, is the house you helped me buy a kind of courtyard house?"

"Yes, there is a lake in the imperial capital, and the boss is in it." Li Muwen said: "Everyone has been cleaned up, but I didn't expect you to live so soon, only have someone clean it up, No furniture, bedding or anything."

Zhen Zhen was so excited when she heard this, she quickly dragged Mrs. Li and asked, "Honey, when are we going?"

Mrs. Li thought about it, Zhen Zhen will start school in March, so she has to tidy up the house before, she asked Ming Dong to bring the calendar over to look at the days, pondered for a while and said : "Let's go early and go out on the tenth day of the first day, so that we won't delay Zhen Zhen going to school."

Every person has to carry a set of bedding rolls, and now there are no ready-made quilts for sale. Although Zhen Zhen looked at the headache of the big bag and the small bag, she didn't dare to help the receiving space rashly. After all, there were too many people and it was easy to see the flaws. Although you may not be able to guess things such as space, you will be thinking about something if you don't have it.

The family carried a lot of things on the train, and even Ming Jun and Ming Ji helped carry a sack of grain. When they arrived in the imperial capital, Mingxi brought Mingbei, Wang Xinwen and noodles to his house, while Mrs. Li took Li Muwu, Wang Sufen and Zhen Zhen to live in Li Muwen's house temporarily.

Knowing that Li Muwu and the others were only cooking in his own home, Xue Wenhua regained his enthusiasm. When he got home, he asked the orderly to help him put things in the basement, and took them to the bathhouse of the compound to take a bath. go.

After a short rest for a day, Zhen Zhen couldn't wait to see her courtyard, thinking that she could only squat at the entrance of the courtyard in her previous life and salivate, but in this life, she could have one, it was like a dream.

The military compound is not very far from Houyang, Li Muwen led Mrs. Li and Li Muwu's family to Houyang. It was still the first month of the year, the weather was cold, and there were not many people visiting Houyang. Mrs. Li looked at this delicate lake and smashed her mouth: "It's much narrower than our Nanda River, and it's not too deep to look at. Can there be fish in it?"

Li Muwen laughed dumbly and said, "Our Yongcui River can be merged into Heijiang in the end, there is nothing comparable between the two."

Old Mrs. Li sighed with disappointment: "My family Zhen Zhen has no other hobbies, she likes going up and down the mountains and rivers. There's nowhere to play, so what to do."

Zhen Zhen took Old Lady Li's arm a little embarrassedly: "Honey, I will go to school in the future, and I can't always play truant and run around like before."

"Look at it, I missed it, I knew that you were designated to play truant before." Mrs. Li laughed like she caught Zhen Zhen's pigtail: "Once I didn't see you when I went to your school to lie at the window."

Zhen Zhen sneered, and quickly pretended to be very curious about everything around her: "Master, where is that courtyard?"

Li Muwen pointed to the front: "That's the house."

Lady Li opened her mouth wide when she looked at the tall door: "Oh, such a big door, there must be four or five rooms inside."

Li Muwen smiled and took the key to open the door, then handed the key to Zhen Zhen, smiled and said: "You have to add a zero at the back, this yard used to be the residence of a county king. Part of it, now there is a four-way house in the middle and a small garden at the back."

Mr. Li's legs softened when she heard this: "Oh, this is the palace of the past? Then can we live here?" She looked around alertly and asked in a low voice Li Muwen: "Will you be criticized?"

"No, mother." Li Muwen helped her into the hanging flower door and walked in: "That time has passed, and there will be no such bad things anymore, you live here, Better days to come."

Lady Li was relieved, she took Zhen Zhen's hand and walked across the veranda. This palace has not been damaged, and the things inside are well preserved. Even the pattern on the top of the veranda is clearly visible. Although the wooden pillars on both sides have faded, they still look very stylish.

Pushing open the door of the main courtyard, the bogu shelf and canopy bed inside have been wiped clean, Zhen Zhen immediately pounced on it, and her eyes straightened when she touched the exquisite patterns on the shelf bed: " This is a real antique."

Li Muwen suddenly smiled: "Zhen Zhen is young and knows a lot, even antiques."

Zhen Zhen smiled shyly: "I used to dump a lot of books from the waste collection station, and it said this. Sir, does every room have furniture?"

Li Muwen shook his head: "The canopy bed in the main room is the most stylish, other rooms are basically empty, but there is a back room with a canopy bed in the back, which is more beautiful, but not This is big, it is estimated that it is a boudoir for girls."

Li Muwu was at a loss as he stood inside: "There are too many rooms in this courtyard. I need to light a few stoves in winter, and there is no mountain to drag firewood. Do I have to buy coal?"

Wang Sufen, who was originally excited, calmed down when she heard this: "How can we fix it? We can't get the coal ticket."

Li Muwen immediately smiled and said: "I was about to tell you about this, but some of the courtyards in this area have been requisitioned by the state, and some have been allocated to individuals, because this place is relatively special, so the I also submitted a document to ask for opinions, asking if I would like to install radiators in a unified way, so that the house will be very warm in winter without burning coal and burning kang, but we have a lot of houses, so I’m afraid the heating bill will be expensive.”

Ms. Li hadn't thought about it yet, she just listened to Zhen Zhen and answered: "Install, install it in every room, how much does it cost?"

"You don't need to pay for the installation of pipes, but you have to pay for the heating later." Li Muwen: "There is still some money left to buy a house, I will give it to you later."

The whole family walked around this big house from beginning to end, and when Zhen Zhen saw that the rockery of Taihu Lake in the garden was still intact, she didn't know what to say: "Master Ah, what you bought isn't just a courtyard house, it's a mansion."

Li Muwen was amused by Zhen Zhen: "Anyway, this one was the best one left at the time, and you were just in time."

Li Muwen has only been in the imperial capital for two years, and he is not very familiar with this area. He turned around and asked the orderly, who shook his head: "They are all bought in shopping malls and supply and marketing cooperatives." Mrs. Li felt a chill in her heart. Neither of these two places would be easy to use without tickets.

Zhen Zhen rolled her eyes, walked beside Mrs. Li and discussed with her: "I'll go around and see if there is a waste market selling old furniture or something."

Once Mrs. Li heard it, she quickly grabbed her hand: "That's not good. It's the first time you go out in the imperial capital and lose it."

"Honey, I'm a college student now, and I will go to school alone in the future. I happen to be familiar with the imperial capital, so I can show you around in the future." Zhen Zhen said with a smile: "Let's talk about it. When my uncle's house asks, everyone knows the place, and I won't lose it."

Li Muwen said a few words to the orderly, and several orderlies and guards took out some solidarity from their pockets and handed them to Li Muwen. Li Muwen counted about 500 yuan and directly gave it to Zhen Zhen: "You are an adult, and you are the No. 1 student in the college entrance examination in the black province. The uncle believes in you. If you go around on your own, you should consider it as exercise. If you can't buy it, I'll find a way for you."

Zhen Zhen took the money in surprise and gave Li Muwen a military salute: "I promise to complete the mission." Li Muwen smiled and left an orderly to help Zhen Zhen lead the way, so he brought Others are gone.

Watching Li Muwen and his party go far, Zhen Zhen thought about the decoration of the courtyard, so that the real ancient house should match those antique furniture, but thinking about her own weak foundation, if it is true It would be too conspicuous to display the perfect huanghuali, nanmu, and red sandalwood furniture in the space. It is better to buy some from the waste collection station first, and discuss the rest later.

Consciousness first swept around several waste collection stations, but found a few places with furniture, she pretended not to know, and asked the orderly next to her: "The nearest waste collection station where?"

The orderly pointed in a direction, which is exactly where Zhen Zhen looked before.

The two spent a day going around the nearby waste collection station. Zhen Zhen had not visited the imperial capital for two years for the college entrance examination, but she found a lot of good things. At the end of the day, Zhen Zhen bought five chairs with broken legs, some were made of nanmu, some were made of huanghuali, and some were made of red sandalwood and nanmu that seemed to have fallen from somewhere, and they also bought them home.

I originally thought that I could only find such a thing, but what surprised Zhen Zhen was that she actually saw a dark purple copper stove from a pile of wood, no matter the color, the base model, the details They are all like Xuande furnaces.

There is a Xuande furnace in the collection of Bai family that Zhen Zhen bought in Bingcheng, but it is only dark brown, and this is only dark purple. Carefully wiped the dirt on it with her sleeve, Zhen Zhen's eyes were bright as if they would shine: "Comrade, I have chosen."

"

"Useless junk?" Li Muwen leaned on the back of the chair: "What kind of thing?"

"The dirty copper stove, broken pieces of wood, some messy seals, inkstones, etc., fortunately they were all bought from the waste acquisition station, and they are not worth much." The orderly said. .

Li Muwen smiled lightly: "You just keep her safe, don't worry about the others."

Li Muwen thought very well, who would have thought that Zhen Zhen dumped the orderly the next day, in the words of the orderly, he ran faster than a rabbit, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared without a trace.

Zhen Zhen wandered the streets and alleys of the imperial capital for seven or eight days, and finally cleaned up the main house and the east and west wing of the main courtyard. There is a canopy bed on the side of the main house for Mrs. Li to live in, and the west room is the house where Li Muwu and Wang Sufen live. Zhen Zhen put out a mahogany bed from the Republic of China in the foreign building, which looks generous and elegant. Eye-catching. There were many mahogany boxes in the western-style building, and they were all moved out, and two were placed in one room.

Zhen Zhen in the east wing is going to live in the Mingbei family, and it is the ocean bed that Su Weiran and the others have used for ten years in the mountain nest. Because of the age, the bed looks a little old, but in fact these are imported goods bought from overseas by ice city capitalists, and they are soft and comfortable to lie on.

Zhen Zhen lives in the west wing, except for a shelf and two boxes, nothing else is put in it, she is going to find someone to move the canopy bed in the back room to her own room for use .

I heard that Zhen Zhen had tidy up the house all by herself, the whole family couldn't wait to come over, when Mrs. Li saw that she also had the bed and the box, she immediately made a decision: "Put the bedding and food all over the place. Carry it over and live here today."

Li Muwen hurriedly persuaded her: "Mother, you only have to live in my house for less than ten days. If outsiders find out and think I'm not filial, why do you have to live again? a month."

I don't like to stay. Look how good this place is, there is such a large piece of land behind it, and I will plant vegetables when spring begins."

Zhen Zhen's brain made up for the scene of a pile of Chinese cabbage beside the Taihu Stone, and silently covered her eyes.

Li Muwen was convinced that the old lady died: "The food we eat is given away, so there is no need to buy it."

Mr. Li pouted: "It's delicious to grow by yourself."

Actually, Mrs. Li doesn't really eat the vegetables she grows. It's just that she and her eldest daughter-in-law haven't seen each other a few times. The polite Mrs. Li who lives with each other feels very awkward. It's different like Wang Sufen. The two have been with each other for a lifetime, and they have adapted to each other. They have similar personalities and tastes, and they have a good relationship like a mother and daughter.

Seeing that Mrs. Li had to move over, Li Muwen had to have someone pull over with the help of a car, quilts and food, and also brought a gas stove, pots and pans, thermos, enamel jars, stoves, etc. Supplies, and in addition, a few bags of coal and some vegetables were sent.

That night, Mrs. Li was lying on the big bed covered with a thick quilt and couldn't sleep with excitement. When she woke up the next day, she couldn't open her eyes. Wang Ye's bed is so excited that he can't sleep, what's the matter, Zhen Zhen, why don't we move this bed and find someone to build a kang for me."

Zhen Zhen: “…”

***

The family has settled down, and soon the school is about to start. Ming Bei, Wang Xinwen, and Zhen Zhen went to the school to report together. There are trams in the emperor. The place where they live and the school are famous places. There are stop signs, and it is very convenient to travel.

The west gate of National University and the east gate of Imperial College are diagonally opposite, so Mingbei is not in a hurry to go to school, and decides to help Zhen Zhen and Wang Xinwen go through the formalities first. Walking on the campus, Zhen Zhen was curious about everything around her. Today's Imperial University looks a lot more vicissitudes than when Zhen Zhen traveled to the end in her previous life, but it also has more charm.

Zhen Zhen and Wang Xinwen are not from the same department, so the dormitory is not on the same floor. Zhen Zhen's dormitory is 201, a room facing south. It was noon at this time, and the warm sunlight poured in, and the whole body was warm.

Zhen Zhen chose the bottom bunk by the window, and wiped the bed with a basin of water. When there was no one in the room, she took out a goose feather mattress and placed it under it. Then I put my own mattress on top, and finally I put a plain-colored sheet on it. The fresh colors look simple and generous.

After tidying up the bed, Zhen Zhen found out a bed sheet with powder foundation and flowers, and directly changed it into a cloth curtain to surround her bed, so that she could pull it when she went to bed at night On, whatever you do is more secretive.

Zhen Zhen tidied up the house, and Wang Xinwen also tidied up over there, the three of them met from the stairwell and were about to go to the National University to have a look. Not long after they left the dormitory area, a The boy in the tunic suit hurried over with his suitcase on his back: "Let's ask you, classmate, where do you go when you go to the law department to report?"

Wang Xinwen immediately smiled: "We are from the same family, I just finished reporting, you can see the registration office when you go over to the lake from here."

"Thank you, classmate." After the boy thanked him, he hurriedly left with his luggage.

Wang Xinwen and Ming Bei walked a few steps, and suddenly realized that Zhen Zhen was not following: "Hurry up, what are you thinking?"

Zhen Zhen swallowed her saliva and trembled a little: "I suddenly remembered that a large part of our students in this class should become the great talents in the future." Looking at her eyes, Zhen Zhen silently muttered in her heart: "Even the future second-in-command is my classmate, what else should I be afraid of."

Until the three of them entered the West Gate of NUS, before they reached the registration site, a more familiar person entered Zhen Zhen's eyes, Zhen Zhen couldn't help but start to imagine: Maybe my future , will become the same awesome existence.

The author has something to say: What do you think you want to be?

Haha, that group of students are really too many powerful characters, but the male protagonist still hasn't appeared, don't worry.
