Chapter 1840 New World, Youth Facing the Wind

It is the beginning of February 97. This year is destined to be an extraordinary year. Various major events will happen one after another. Of course, the most eye-catching one is the return in a few months.

In the late 90s, after more than ten years of development since the opening up, the economy of the island city is basically better than that of the provincial capital. This has gradually led to a phenomenon that people in the island city do not usually add "Rudong" as the prefix when introducing themselves.

The island city is developing very rapidly nowadays. Construction is going on everywhere and buildings are rising from the ground every day. If you have the opportunity to fly over it by plane, you will find that the whole city is like a large construction site.

But all this has not affected the old city. In the midst of the hustle and bustle, there is a small courtyard with an elegant environment.

The two-story red brick building looked quite old after years of ravages. There was an apricot tree in the yard. Under the tree there was a young man who looked very clever, but at this moment he looked a little silly, standing outside in a daze in a sweater.

Because I was in the process of integrating my memories and I had just been reborn, my mind was a little confused for a while, so I made an excuse to go outside the yard.

In this life, his name is Li Si. He is 17 years old after the Chinese New Year and is a freshman in high school. He studies in Class of Lin No. Middle School. His good friends are Cheng Miaomiao, Hu Qiumin and others, and they all grew up together.

My mother, Niu Lingling, is the top leader of the family and the queen who is in charge of government affairs. She is the one who makes the decisions on all matters, big or small.

Many years ago, he used to be a dancer in the factory-run art troupe. Later, due to factory downsizing, he went into business. Now he runs the "Xiao Shudu" restaurant, an authentic Sichuan restaurant opened by a native of eastern Shandong. With the reputation of his grandfather and stepfather, his business is booming in the entire base.

Li Dahai, the cheap dad, is a typical small town test-taker who was born into a fisherman family. He was lucky enough to get a job as a low-level oil worker in an oil factory. In the end, he married a good wife and worked his way up to his current position as director. Of course, he also worked very hard.

He hated to see his son being spoiled and having a bad temper at home and would hit others at will. Thinking of this, Li Si felt scared subconsciously and shuddered involuntarily.

"Youth facing the wind?"

"I have always wanted to marry Miaomiao since I was a child!"

"How did I get here~" he muttered to himself with a bitter smile.

I have watched this drama before, and most of it was good except for the ending which was a big mess, with Li Si suddenly getting a terminal illness and dying.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but hold my stomach. I searched my mind but didn't find any stomachache. However, I secretly decided to go to the hospital for a check-up when I had the chance. You can't take chances on this!

You might die if you try.

After all, I have experienced so many worlds. Although I have stripped myself of the emotional entanglements and returned to my youth, I have a very strong ability to adapt. As the saying goes, I should make the best of it. It is not bad to experience the youthful life in high school again.

"Grandson, what are you doing standing outside in such a cold weather? Come in and eat. I know you like to eat pig heads and pig ears, so your grandpa specially asked relatives in your hometown to help you save the pig heads!"

A kind old lady walked out of the house, holding a down jacket in her hand. Although this thing was not a rare item in the late 90s, it was not something that ordinary people could afford.

Although Li Si's father was only a director, he had a mother with a business mind. This little money in the family was nothing, not to mention that his grandfather had been the head of Linqi Factory for more than 20 years. Before retiring, he even worked as the head of the trade union in the bureau for a period of time. It could be considered a step forward from retirement.

The old couple had only one child, the mother, which was extremely rare in the 60s. When Comrade Lao Niu transferred to the oil factory, he was determined to devote all his energy to its development.

It was not until he got old that he realized that he owed his family, which led to his original self, Little Li Si, being very naughty. There was nothing he could do about the relationship between grandparents and no one could do anything about it, not even when he went to his grandfather Weihai.

"Grandma~" Li Si looked at the old lady and brought out the mischievous smile in his memory.

Of course, calling her an old lady may not be quite accurate. As the former head nurse of a factory-run hospital, she looks very young living a life of luxury with her back against my grandfather's tree. She has dyed and permed her hair into the most popular curly style nowadays, and has a few faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. She looks like she is in her early 50s.

Grandma put a thick down jacket on her grandson. Even though Li Si was taller than her, he still looked like a child in her eyes and looked very kind when he smiled.

"You kid, you just haven't finished your winter vacation homework, and you're afraid your parents will come over and get angry. Don't be afraid, Xiao Si, your mom just called and said your dad is on duty at work and won't be here until the second day of the new year. Hurry up and finish your homework!"

"Hmm~" The original body was nothing more than a poor student. Although he was naughty, he was not without advantages. For example, he had the character of a community cow. Even if he hadn't seen him for a long time, he would quickly play with his neighbors when he returned to his hometown.

Originally, I was reluctant to be sent to my grandparents' house by my mother during the winter vacation because there were so many friends at the oil field base, and of course, I was mainly reluctant to leave Cheng Miaomiao.

I resisted for this, but after being beaten a few times by my cheap dad, I gave in and obediently got in the car and went to my grandparents' house in the island city. But I was sad for a few days here, but I was happy to meet some friends.

I am so happy to be away from my parents' control that I am a regular visitor to game halls and even the rare Internet cafes in this era. When I get tired of playing, I play basketball and football. I have long forgotten about my winter vacation homework. I was only at a loss last night when I found out that my parents were coming over for the New Year.

As Li Si followed his grandma into the house, he was instantly so hot that he couldn't even keep his clothes on. After changing into his slippers, he threw them on the sofa and trotted towards the restaurant.

"Grandpa!"

"Hey, sit down and eat. What are you afraid of? Come over here and I'll talk to your mom. But you have to pay attention to your studies, you little brat. No matter what, we can't be left behind!"

"dont you agree?"

Comrade Lao Niu, who was sitting at the dining table, was wearing an old blue work suit from the Lin No. 7 Factory, which had become a little white from being washed so often.

His temples are already gray but they are combed meticulously. Although he is over 60 years old, his back is straight. He has held a high position for a long time and there is an inexplicable aura about him.

Well, you can tell from the old man’s words why Li Si is very naughty in the play. This is a habit developed in the family. The three words “greater-generation kinship” express it vividly.

Look at the dishes on the table, such as pig head, pig ears, etc., all of which are my original favorite. It is considered good that they grew up in such an environment without growing up crooked.

"Xiao Si, come and try this pig head meat and see if grandma's cooking skills have improved!"

"Xiao Si, I kept this pig ear on purpose, and the other one will be yours when the time comes!"

No matter how much grandma kept picking up the food, Comrade Lao Niu, who was drinking a little wine, did not show any weakness.

"Grandson, don't eat these things all the time. Eat a big chicken drumstick and grow taller!"

Seeing the bowl filled with more and more dishes, if I were in adolescence, I might have said something without thinking, eaten a few mouthfuls of rice and ran out to play.

But of course he couldn't do that after being reborn. He just ate food in big mouthfuls, which made the two old people happiest.

Who wouldn’t want to be the grandson in one’s dreams?

"Apart from each other~"

"Grandma, Grandpa, you guys eat too!" Li Si burped and seemed almost full, so he picked up some dishes for the two elderly people.

It was such a simple gesture, but it made the old man very happy.

"Oh, look at my eldest grandson, he is so sensible!"

“Uh…” Li Si felt a little embarrassed after putting down his bowl and chopsticks. It was really not easy to avoid growing crooked.

The feeling of being spoiled, this... is so great!
