Chapter 14: Into the city

Chinese New Year is a joyous event, and it is also the first year Li Wei has come to this era.
In the past two days, she has been busy walking with relatives, and she has also received a lot of lucky money. It's a pity that the money hadn't been warmed up, so Liu Chunzhi had to go.
"What money do you save as a child, I will keep it for you, and I will have to pay you tuition when school starts."
"Oh" Li Wei reluctantly handed over the New Year's money.
Liu Chunzhi counted the money, her daughter looked pitiful, and then took out a five-yuan piece and gave it to Li Wei: "Take it, don't buy things randomly."
She got 30 yuan in total, and finally gave her five yuan. , Although it is less, but better than none. Li Wei still accepted it.
Soon, it was the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. This day the brothers and sisters have decided to go shopping in the city.
Li Wei came to this era, but within a month, the farthest he went to was his aunt's house. Now that she can go out far away, she is already very happy.
So she woke up early that day and was very diligent in finishing her work at home. Then she changed her clothes and went out with Li Jianbo.
"Second brother, how do we get into the city?"
"My eldest brother rode away the bicycle early in the morning, so we had to go by car."
Is it the iron box full of people? Li Wei found it very novel and even eager to try it.
The siblings went to town first, then stood by the road and waited for the bus.
Li Jianbo had a watch on his wrist, and he looked a little impatient when he waited a while to check the time.
After waiting for a full half an hour, a long smoking car drove up. Li Jianbo turned his head and said to Li Wei, "You must follow me closely and you must not run around."
"I see." Li Wei replied obediently, and went to see the car door opened and many people came down from above. All the people on the top will go down, and the people below will go up.
However, a swarm of people was squeezing in. At the moment when he was about to get in the car, Li Wei suddenly became a little scared. She had never been in such a car. I don't know who pushed her behind. If Li Jianbo, who was walking in the front, stretched out his hand and grabbed her, he would have fallen to the ground.
Li Wei felt that his chest was pounding fast. There were too many people entering the city and there was no place to sit, so he had to stand firmly.
"You have to stand firm and hold firmly when the car is driving." Li Jianbo gave an uneasy exhort, and Li Wei agreed casually.
When all the people below came up, the car was crowded. Almost Li Wei's body was attached to Li Jianbo.
The driver started the car at this moment, and suddenly, Li Wei almost failed to stand still. Fortunately, he had his brother to rely on.
The car started to walk swayingly. How do you say this feeling, it was of course much smoother and faster than a carriage. It was just an unpleasant smell coming, coupled with the bumps and shaking, Li Wei only felt his stomach churning, and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Li Jianbo noticed that his sister's face was a little unpleasant and asked worriedly: "Are you going to get motion sick?"
"I don't know, it's really uncomfortable."
Sure enough, motion sickness was still going on, Li Jianbo regretted taking his sister out with him.
The conductor was selling tickets, and Li Jianbo took out the money and asked them to pass it over: "Two in the city." The fare is one yuan.
"Hold on for a while, it will be there in half an hour."
In the car for half an hour, Li Wei found it extremely difficult, but Li Jianbo rarely took her out. Li Wei didn't want to cause trouble for him, so he had to bite the bullet and hold on.
Staggering all the way, stop and go, saying that it was a half-hour drive, it took 40 minutes to walk.
When getting out of the car, Li Wei's face was pale, and later she couldn't help but spit out in the public toilet.
This vomit was blown by the cold wind again, and suddenly felt a lot more sober.
"Does it matter to you?"
Li Wei reluctantly smiled and said, "It will be better after vomiting up. Where shall we go next? Here is completely blacked out, only to follow you."
Li Jianbo said: "You just follow me."
When Li Wei came slowly, he had the strength to look at the small county seat.
Rows of small red brick buildings are very common, and occasionally there are one or two buildings painted white.
There are many people in the city, and there are many cars. There are car bells all over the street, and there are cars going back and forth.
Strings of red lanterns are hung on the trees along the road, showing the joy of the festival.
In catching up with the New Year, the people coming and going are beaming in new clothes and look vigorous. People here are happier than the people of Daqi.
Li Wei followed Li Jianbo closely, and the siblings walked across the streets. Later Li Jianbo stopped in front of a stall, bought a bottle of drink for Li Wei, and handed it to her: "Your face is too bad, let's drink something."
Li Wei saw that on the red wrapping paper on the plastic bottle, there were four bright characters "Tianfu Cola" written in large.
She unscrewed the bottle cap forcefully, and took a big sip. The taste was a bit choking, but the sweet taste was completely different from the choking throat of white wine. After taking two sips, he made a big hiccup, and felt gas spurting out of his mouth. It feels so cool. Li Wei has lived for so many years and has never had such a good drink.
"What kind of sugar water is this? It looks like medicine but not like medicine, it tastes good."
Li Jianbo saw that his sister was so satisfied with a drink of coke, he couldn't help but smile, and he reached out and touched the hair on Li Wei's forehead and said, "It's Coke."
"Is it expensive? A lot of money, right?"
Li Jianbo said bluntly: "In catching up with the New Year, we will also be extravagant."
Li Wei held Coke and continued to follow Li Jianbo. Li Jianbo walked to a small shop and said to the people inside: "I'll make a call." He pressed a series of numbers at random, and after a while he said: "I'm here, you guys in the park. I don't have their phone numbers. You can call them."
From when Li Jianbo dialed the number to when he hung up, it was not a minute before and after that, but Li Wei was dumbfounded. Obviously, she hadn't figured out what was going on.
Li Wei not only asked, "Second brother, who are you talking to?"
Li Jianbo smiled and said: "They will be here right away, you'll know in a while."
Li Wei obviously still didn't understand that the times are really amazing.
Li Jianbo took his sister to the park in the center of the city.
There are many small vendors in the park, selling toys, drinks, candied haws, and kites. There were children running around in the square, seeing Li Wei dazzled. At this moment, Li Wei really felt that she was really a country girl entering the city.
After about ten minutes, a bicycle stopped in front of them. Sitting on the bicycle were two teenagers, both of the same age as Li Jianbo.
