Rebirth in the leisurely life of the red age

March 15, 1970.

Sunday.

Early in the morning, while most of the wealthy people living on the hillside were still in deep sleep, Li Yuan had already gotten up, stood with his two sons for a while, and then took them to the Central Market down the hill.

The Central Market is probably the most famous and oldest existing wet market on Hong Kong Island, dating back to 1842...

It was only half past five in the morning, and the market was already bustling with people.

There are a lot of parallel imports of all kinds of seafood in the wet market, and the ground is inevitably dirty.

In addition, there was a spring rain last night, which made the road even muddy...

Fortunately for Li Xing, he often went to Qinjiazhuang to play when he was a child in Sijiu City, and there was a lot of rolling around in the dirt.

Since Li Sicai was born, he has never been exposed to much muddy smell, let alone sewage mixed with the smell of rotten fish and shrimp.

Along the way, my little face turned pale...

Li Yuan just pretended not to know and picked fresh dishes and seafood from various stalls. After more than half an hour, he took Li Xing and the dying Li Si out of the Central Market.

After leaving the market, Li Si was so stimulated by the fresh air that he couldn't help but spit it out.

Li Xing patted his back on the side and saw his father laughing happily. He felt sorry for his younger brother and said, "Dad, there are vegetables sold in the department store. Why are we here?"

Li Yuandao: "Broaden your horizons. I was also influenced by Xiaosi, so I brought you here."

"ha?!"

Li Si's tone has changed. Is he influenced by him?

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Xiaosi said that many of the children in their kindergarten think that citizens living in squatter areas are not human beings. Even ordinary citizens, those who work hard but still can't make money, It's rubbish. These fallacies can only mean one thing. These people and their families have reduced their world by more than half. Because the vast majority of people in the world are ordinary people, and most of them are poor. If in consciousness Abandoning the same kind of people as these is equivalent to cutting your own world into a small corner and admiring yourself. Such people will fail sooner or later. Moreover, life will also lose many, many rich colors. I don’t want you to do the same. To be that stupid.”

Li Si screamed: "Dad, these are their opinions, not mine."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "So, I only bring you here once in a while. If you brothers also think this way, then I will take you to visit the vegetable market every day."

Even Li Xing couldn't laugh now. The smell inside was really...horrible.

It would be miserable if it came every day...

After the two of them repeatedly stated that they would never have such inhuman thoughts, Li Yuan drove them home with a smile.

In fact, he is not the only one who teaches his son many principles early. Every weekend, Li Huanggua’s son is taken to the company to watch him have meetings and quarrels with people in the company. After the meeting, he or the company’s senior management will give the two Gherkin explains the business principles inside.

This kind of education method is nothing new among wealthy families.

This world is so real and cruel, so later on, while the elites strengthened education for their children, they also promoted happiness education in society.

Because if the children of people at the bottom of society are not allowed to be relaxed and happy when they go to school, their children will have more and more trouble to manage in the future...

Maybe, this can be regarded as a kind of deep love for children...

Li Yuan was unable to change this harsh social law and could only fulfill his responsibilities as a father.

…

"Wow, did you eat seafood porridge this morning?"

At eight o'clock in the morning, Erlou came to the restaurant with his three children. After smelling the fragrance, they all smiled with peach blossoms on their faces.

Both sisters like seafood porridge very much, and nothing else, but the faint fishy aroma is the perfect match...

Just serve the crab roe buns. After having a satisfying breakfast, Lou Xiaoe asked: "Is the glutinous rice dumpling classmate coming to my house as a guest today?"

Li Yuan nodded, and Li Xing chuckled.

Lou Xiao'e glanced at Li Yuan and said, "Children are fooling around, and adults are also fooling around?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Children's friendship is not real. If they are older, they will all go out to study abroad, and they will not see each other for several years. Childhood friendship is the most precious, and we should take care of it."

Lou Xiu also said: "That should be the case."

Lou Xiao'e pouted, rubbed her son's hair vigorously, and said, "I heard it. I think you are just good friends, not girlfriends. Don't mess up this relationship yourself and hurt other girls."

Li Xing was just happy, and then ran out to play with his younger brother.

Li Yuan continued to work in the kitchen, while Er Lou began to take care of the children and clean up himself.

There are guests arriving today. They should not dress too casually, as they will lose their etiquette...

At around 10:30, He Pingshi's mother, Ms. Lan Qiongying, was driven by the driver to the Li family's house. Almost at the same time, Cao Wenjin arrived in the Wang family's car. Cao Yongshan's mother, Feng Meihui, also arrived with her daughter.

Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu pushed a stroller to greet them at the door. Lan Qiongying and Feng Meihui were very embarrassed when they saw it: "Oh, I'm really disturbing you!"

Lou Xiao'e smiled brightly and said, "Why bother me? It's more lively when you come to a guest's house."

Lan Qiongying was originally from mainland China. After moving to Hong Kong with her family in 1949, her family ran a mid-range silk shop.

Then... she married King He Du at the age of fourteen, and gave birth to He Pingshi at the age of nineteen.

Therefore, she is four years younger than Lou Xiao'e, and is only twenty-six or seven years old this year.

He is very observant and very smart.

Feng Meihui, on the other hand, was born in the Feng family of Hong Kong Island, an old and wealthy family, but she seemed much simpler.

All in all, the host family is warm and the guests are well-educated, making it easy and pleasant to get along with them.

Li Yuan placed a long table on the garden lawn, covered it with a white tablecloth, and prepared milk, drinks and red wine.

Then he took Li Xing and two of his classmates out and brought out plates of fragrant delicacies.

"Dr. Li, I wonder if there was a nine-turn large intestine today? After eating at your house that day, I thought about it for a long time!"

Lan Qiongying looked at Li Yuan and asked with a smile. She stared at Li Yuan and found it pleasing to the eye.

He Duwang's appearance is already considered one of the best among Hong Kong Island tycoons, but compared with Li Yuan, it is still far behind.

He Pingshi felt embarrassed and scolded: "Mommy~"

Lan Qiongying encouraged her: "Pangpang, you need to eat more in a while, you know? The food cooked by Uncle Li is really the most delicious food Mommy has ever eaten. If I tell your father, he still doesn't believe it. Whatever." Well, he won’t have a chance to eat it anyway.”

Everyone around laughed, and Li Si circled around this beautiful doll-like sister and called tentatively: "Pangpang?" He thought he heard wrongly.

He Pingshi's pretty face turned red, then she put her hands on her hips, glared at Li Si and lectured: "Xiao Si, be polite!"

Li Yuan didn't even stop and started laughing.

Good guy, are you acting like a sister-in-law?

Children are so interesting...

But who could have imagined that decades later, this little girl with a face as childish as a Barbie doll would use a series of extremely tough methods after her father's death to defeat the man who once pointed a gun at King He Du. Bengyaju asked him to be a cultural ambassador obediently, and with the help of foreign aid from the mainland, he killed the arrogant Xi Huahua with one palm and turned him into a powder from which he would never be able to stand up again!

The fourth wife of the He family, who was the most popular, was completely frightened into submission, and the fourth wife, who was showing off her teeth and claws, bowed her head honestly.

As a lonely woman, she takes charge of the 500 billion family fortune left by King He Du.

Looking at the second generation of wealthy families in Hong Kong and Kowloon, there is no other person with such charisma.

Tsk!

But what kind of character was Li Si? He just glanced sideways at his elder brother's girlfriend, smiled and ran away.

Sometimes he doesn't even accept his eldest brother, let alone a little sister-in-law?

Li Yuan continued the preface: "The first one is the Nine-turn Large Intestine, the essence of Shandong cuisine. I ate it last time, so I won't go into details. The second one is sea cucumbers roasted with green onions, which I also ate last time..."

Lan Qiongying praised: "Dr. Li's sea cucumber roasted with green onions is also a masterpiece! The sea cucumbers are soft and delicious, and the green onions are fragrant and delicious!" Then she turned to Erlou and praised: "Dr. Li is so capable and yet so considerate of his family. It's really great. What a man!”

Erlou smiled and nodded, and Feng Meihui looked at the two sisters' beautiful faces and radiant faces, feeling both puzzled and a little envious.

Not to mention the wealthy families in Hong Kong, ordinary citizens with a 400-square-foot house dare to marry two wives.

But to be honest, life with two wives is really not that easy. A man and his wife will quarrel, let alone a man with two wives. It is common for a man to have a miserable life.

There are very few families with such a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere as the Li family.

What she doesn't understand is, is there really such a generous woman...

What I envy is that the relationship between a married couple is so good.

She is the eldest daughter-in-law of Cao's family. Although the man is Cao's eldest son, he has no interest in the family business. He studied architectural design in the United States and became addicted to this industry. He has no desire to return to Hong Kong Island to take over the family business.

Marrying such a second-rate wife made Feng Meihui feel very hurt...

Li Yuan helped her heal her wounds: "I made three new dishes today: fried double crispy and three-shredded shark's fin, and a famous dish, the first dish of the Manchu-Han Banquet, White Braised Four Treasures. One cup per person, let's try it."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes lit up and she said to Lan Qiongying and Feng Meihui: "This is delicious. We usually don't eat much, but today we are in for a treat!"

After the guests sat down, Li Xing whispered a few words to He Pingshi and Cao Yongshan. Then he stood up and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Dad. Thank you for the delicious lunch."

He Pingshi and Cao Yongshan laughed together and said: "Uncle Li, thank you for your hard work. Thank you Uncle Li for the delicious lunch."

Li Si turned his head to look at these three guys, his eyes widened...

Go out on the street, what kind of thing is this?

The adults laughed and applauded, and thanked Li Yuan for his hard work.

Li Yuan smiled at the two little girls and said, "You're welcome. If you have the opportunity in the future, you are welcome to visit us often."

He Pingshi said: "Uncle Li, I also want to invite your family to my home, but my father can't cook."

Li Yuan laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, just let Mr. He boil some sugar water for us to drink."

He Pingshi chuckled, readily agreed, then sat down and started tasting the delicious food.

After finishing lunch, Li Xing stood up and started to clear away the dishes. He subconsciously felt that something was wrong. The little follower next to him didn't move. He looked at his second brother Li Si and found that he was still sitting there, looking at him with his eyes open. .

Li Xing was puzzled, and Li Si pursed his lips to the side, meaning: Invite those two to do it together!

Li Xing: "..."

He shook his head and didn't force anything, but seeing him doing it alone, Li Si muttered a few words and got up to help...

He Pingshi and Cao Yongshan were stunned for a while before rushing to help.

They have never done these things as long as they can remember.

Lan Qiongying saw this and looked at Li Yuan who was sitting there drinking tea and entertaining his three young sons. She sighed to Erlou: "Your family is really good at tutoring!"

Hong Kong and Kowloon are so big, and the circle of wealthy people is even smaller. If something happens, you will know everything you need to know in a few days.

Lan Qiongying naturally knows how the Li family made their fortune and how much wealth they have.

Wealthy families in Hong Kong who have some wealth can afford to hire servants. Families like theirs use their own maids.

With the Li family's current wealth, they can fully support their hairdressing girl. They don't have to deal with all the trivial chores, they just want to enjoy life.

But Li Yuan was cooking the food himself, while the two wives took care of the children, and the two eldest sons cleaned up the dishes and washed them...

This is something rarely seen among Hong Kong's wealthy families.

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "It's hard to talk about it. It's just an ordinary family."

Lan Qiongying was very good at talking, and asked about the customs of the northern continent. After the children had neatly packed away the dishes and chopsticks, the two families left.

After seeing off the guests, the family took a lunch break.

In the master bedroom, Lou Xiao'e asked Li Yuan: "The second wife of this gambling king has never said that she would like you to help her eldest wife see a doctor?"

Li Yuan chuckled. That woman looked smart and easy to talk to, but she was definitely a ruthless character.

The three daughters and one son of the eldest son are dead and crazy. It has nothing to do with it at all... It's hard to say anyway.

The death of He Duwang's son was still a mystery before he traveled through time.

All I know is that after the death of the eldest son of the eldest son of King He Du, Lan Qiongying, who had been the doting one for nearly thirty years, took his son to Canada, and then they had three and four bedrooms...

On the other side, Lou Xiu said softly: "You have always made the children at home realize that they are just ordinary children. Do you want to prevent them from fighting in the future?"

Li Yuan said with a smile: "They have nothing to fight for. Each person has his own industry. We provide financial and technical support. Whether they can become a dragon or an adult is all up to them. Let them live a more down-to-earth life, so that they can have an understanding of the world. Have a clearer understanding.”

Lou Xiao'e giggled and said, "Then are we going to have another baby? That's six children!"

Li Yuan thought for a while and said: "That's enough. Once you have a child, you won't have your own life for several years. If you keep giving birth, you won't be able to do anything in your life. We don't live just to have children, we have to We have our own lives, right? Besides, six is ​​already a lot."

Lou Xiu smiled leisurely and said: "We have enough, there are three Xiao'e and two of me, but there is only one over there in my hometown."

To be fair, Lou Xiu has seen so many women, and Qin Daxue's brilliance is still unmatched by anyone, including these women in Hong Kong.

So I have always been a little worried (wary) in my heart...

Li Yuan patted her round butt and said, "I wish I didn't have any babies over there. I can't even take care of this one. I'll take you here next year and accept you as my mother."

Lou Xiu smiled and said: "Heroes among women are indeed extraordinary. Managing a country... is much more grand than having a rich son and good luck."

Lou Xiao'e suddenly giggled and said proudly: "I think wealth is the best!"

Thinking of my fat little boy, he climbed very fast every day, chasing Li Si and screaming, the whole family laughed, and after a while, they fell asleep together...
