Chapter 102 Catching the Wind
There were not many night flights in this era, and the flight from Xiangjiang to the Imperial Capital was also during the day, which made Wang Xu not used to getting up early and taking discounted red-eye flights in his previous life.
Going back to the past, the cultural shock still exists, but I feel more and more incredible about the future development of the country. It was actually like this back then. The people passing by seem to have changed without knowing it, but when they really come back across decades, the comparison and contrast will make people feel like a miracle.
Wang Xu was thinking that if someone traveled directly from this era to 2020, they would probably think that they were 100 years in the future.
In the days after he came back, Wang Xu also saw conjectures about the millennium and fantasies about the 21st century in the newspapers. But even the most optimistic ideas are less magical than reality.
Last year, China's GDP ranked 11th in the world, behind Brazil, and the most bold predictions about China's national strength in the 21st century were only in the top five.
Wang Xu looked at the somewhat old airport. In fact, it was already one of the best airports in the country. The T1 terminal of the Imperial Airport was built in 1959. Now it seems that more than 30 years have passed, but it has been well maintained and has a charm left by the years.
The newer T2 terminal will not be completed until the end of the century and is still on the drawing board. Wang Xu recalled the last time he took a plane and landed at Daxing Airport in his previous life. The dreamy airport with a bit of science fiction and the ancient airport full of Soviet style in front of him, the contrast really made him feel like a white cloud.
It was almost dinner time when Wang Xu took the airport bus back to the courtyard. Wang Xu simply put down his luggage and took out a towel to wipe his face. Bring gifts and go home for dinner. Well, no, I should say go to Aunt Jiang's house for dinner.
Wang Xu's parents haven't come back yet. It's normal for his father to be away from home. He usually has to work far away. Recently I heard that Shougang is also moving to Hebei Province, and it will be further away from now on.
Although his mother often travels on business, it is rare for her to travel as long as this time. Condolence performances in the countryside generally involve a tour of surrounding counties and cities, and return within ten days and a half.
But last time her mother called and sent a message saying that she had temporarily changed her schedule this time and was going to other provinces for exchanges. She would also perform with the army's art troupe as part of a condolence performance. It was said to be part of the support of the army's family members, so she disappeared as soon as she went there, and she didn't know where she went. It was an accurate letter, and I didn’t even leave a phone number.
However, this gave Wang Xu sufficient time to adapt. Now he has gradually become familiar with everything about his predecessor and accepted the various causes and effects of his predecessor. Of course, he must also accept and face his parents calmly.
Aunt Jiang didn't expect that Wang Xu would come back today. Wang Xu didn't even notify people here to pick her up. They were very busy. The airport was far away. There wasn't even a subway now. It would take most of the day to pick someone up at the airport. Wang Xu is young and strong, so there is no need for this.
"Hey, second brother, why are you back? Mom, mom, the second son is back, and we have to cook for one person at home." As soon as Wang Xugang entered the gate of the courtyard, he heard Li Yu's whirring voice.
"No matter how old or young you are, your second brother loves you so much, and you still scream like a son and a son all day long." Uncle Li stretched out his hand and slapped Li Yu on the back of the head, half blaming, half doting.
These two little ones were actually childhood sweethearts. Uncle Li originally wanted to bring them together, but they just didn't call. Wang Xu is like a little adult, so he doesn't care if he doesn't like Li Yu.
Li Yu, a little girl, actually didn't like Wang Xu. When she said that Wang Xu was a buddy, she got goosebumps just thinking about it.
Don't call it puppy love. At that time, many people in the countryside were getting married in their late teens, and it was standard for parents of that generation to have children in their early 20s. If it weren't for the strict control of schools in the imperial capital and the country's policy of family planning and late birth and childbearing, many parents would deliberately match up their childhood sweethearts.
Only families that attach great importance to learning will be more cautious about puppy love. The reason is that they are afraid that it will affect their studies and prevent them from going to college. The rest are all under the nose, and the protection between men and women is very tight now, so nothing really happened.
The so-called falling in love means at most kissing, holding hands, walking on the street, and watching movies. If anything big happens, the worst thing is to get married early. Of course, this is actually related to economic conditions. There are not so many places for the girl to hang out at the moment.
"Xiangjiang brought some local specialties, you guys can try them." After handing gifts to Li Yu and Uncle Li's family, Wang Xu sat down at the dining table and started waiting for the meal without any courtesy at all. Uncle Li didn't have to give in, well, Uncle Li didn't give in either. habit.
"I'll give some to the neighbors in a while. You used to torment others a lot when you were a kid. When you get rich, you can't forget your roots." When Aunt Jiang saw that the gifts were all candies and snacks, she accepted them with a smile. While busy delivering food, he kept mumbling.
"If you can't, I've prepared everything. Most of the suitcases are filled with these." Before leaving Xiangjiang, Wang Xu bought a lot of candies at Lee Kum Kee. At this time, Xiangjiang's toffees and chocolates are quite popular inland. of high-end goods.
"Li Yu, why don't you tell the good news to your brother Wang Xu? Normally, you would like to announce your good deeds to the world, but why are you silent this time?" Uncle Li joked while peeling a piece of candied garlic, sitting obediently next to him. Li Yu.
"What? It's not too late. I originally wanted to talk about it tomorrow when I show the trophy to my second brother. It's bad for me." Li Yu complained that Uncle Li ruined her little surprise, and rolled her eyes at her old father in annoyance.
"Oh, let's have a little surprise. I guess it's my father's fault, he said he would use this as an excuse to drink two cups." Uncle Li quickly begged for mercy, but still took out a bottle of Erguotou, put a cup in front of Wang Xu, and said I also set one up.
"What a surprise, Diandian," Diandian is Li Yu's nickname. When she was a child, Li Yu always said that she was a little more Wang than Wang Xu. Later, Wang Xu called her Diandian.
"What else can I do? Isn't it just winning the first prize in the city report performance? It is said that their program will also be on the New Year's Day party in the Imperial Capital. Recently, the little girls are floating in the aisles." Jiang Auntie had just brought a basin of soup and interrupted.
"Mom, you stole my words again." Li Yu was very angry when her mother snatched away all the bragging words she had just prepared.
"Oh, it's mom's fault, let's eat a chicken drumstick to plug your mouth." Aunt Jiang joked with her daughter with a smile, took one drumstick and put it in her daughter's bowl, and then put the other one in Wang Xu's bowl.
"Eat more. What's going on over there in Xiangjiang? Why hasn't Feifei come back?" Uncle Li saw that Wang Xu had taken away the job of pouring wine, so he let Wang Xu take care of him.
"It's not bad. It's quite bustling. This time it's mainly about work. I recorded three tapes and I'm so busy that I'm so busy. Feifei has a lot of things going on there. I probably won't be able to come back for a few months."
This is a very ordinary feast, all home-cooked. Except for the chicken, which is a meat dish that is stewed all year round, the rest are basically vegetarian. Oh, by the way, Aunt Jiang also specially peeled a few preserved eggs to serve as a side dish for Wang Xu when he came back. I even got a cucumber to go with the wine.
Li Yu also brought two bottles of soda as drinks from Wang Xu's hut so she could clink glasses with the man. She didn't like Erguotou.
The cups were exchanged, the glasses were exchanged, and the small family dinner was warm and sweet.
