Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 1028: The son is still the most favored even though the grandson is not around

After Han Li watched Gong Jianglong drive away, he returned home and added some wood to the Earth Fire Dragon, adjusted the damper to the appropriate size before returning to the house.

After changing his clothes and making a cup of tea, Han Li half-collapsed on the sofa again. A dull mind would tend to overthink, so he went over in his mind what he had just heard from Old Liu and pondered it over again.

First of all, it was very difficult for Han Li to get this one-year study abroad quota. Many lecturers and professors in universities only have half a year to study abroad.

Only scholars, professors, and engineers who are engaged in certain research areas will be given years to study abroad.

Secondly, whether it is the college students of the class of 77 or the postgraduate students of the class of 78, no one has yet been able to get the opportunity to study abroad on government sponsorship before graduation.

If we have to talk about it in a reasonable way, Han Li's only identity as an assistant teacher can make him somewhat similar to others. But no matter how you look at it, Han Li's situation is as poisonous as a scorpion's shit.

Han Li pondered over the situation with Old Liu several times. Among them, Old Guan mentioned the flower Clivia when chatting with Old Song. Only then did he sit up straight and picked up the still slightly cold tea in front of him and drank it all.

I stood up, put on my going-out clothes, pushed my bicycle, locked the door, and went straight to the bird market, west of Baita Temple and northeast of Fuchengmen.

Han Li did not stroll around here, nor did he buy birds, animals, flowers or plants. Instead, he went directly to the place where flower pots were sold. He selected a total of 20 to 30 flower pots of moderate size with simple patterns and then walked back.

After returning home, Han Li began to transplant Clivia into the flower pots in the vast peach garden. The Clivia he transplanted at the beginning not only grew very well in the past two years, but the mature seeds also reproduced naturally and had formed a large area.

Han Li didn't understand how the rare and exquisite, high-end, mid-range and low-end Clivia were classified, but he knew that there were two sentences in the poems praising Clivia: "Standing like a beauty's fan, spreading like a phoenix's flying tail."

Therefore, when transplanting, Han Li tried his best to find those Clivias with dignified plant shapes, neat leaves, bright veins, and tall flowers. At first glance, they gave people the impression of elegance and otherworldly charm, and transplanted them into these pots.

Twenty or thirty pots were transplanted quickly. Han Li first placed a pot in each room to purify the air, leaving a few pots for his parents. In this way, more than ten pots had been arranged.

Han Li planned to send all the remaining dozen or so pots of top-quality Clivia to Old Liu and others before the New Year's Eve.

It was already evening when Han Li finished all this. He took the pots of Clivia that he left for his parents and returned to Mianhua Hutong.

Going back to send Clivia off was one thing, and the most important thing was to tell my parents that I was going abroad, and also to go home for dinner.

Speaking of food, ever since the Yun sisters became pregnant, there are all kinds of ingredients available in Houhai.

But today Han Li was too lazy to cook. If he walked a few more steps, he could not only have a ready-made meal, but also look after his parents and feel like he was being pampered at home as he did before when his two sons were gone.

When Mr. Han saw the pots of flowers his son brought back, he didn't take it seriously at first, because he still liked those agile animals that could run and jump, and he had no interest in these plants that he could only look at and take care of carefully.

However, when Han Li told him the origin of Clivia and how many leaders had started to grow it, and that a good pot of Clivia might be worth a house in the future, Han's father immediately took it seriously and even moved the radio that was placed by the window to another place.

While eating, Han Li drank with his father while eating the food his mother picked for him, and at the same time explained his situation.

"Dad, Mom, I might be sent to study abroad around May next year."

"What? Study abroad?"

"Son, is this true?" Han Li's words shocked both his father and mother. You know, nowadays, only those who have connections and direct relatives overseas can go abroad, and the other party is willing to pay for all the formalities, and they cannot be college or technical secondary school students, or people from special units, factories, mines, or enterprises.

Apart from the one above, the only way for ordinary people to go abroad is to be sent by the government. This path is full of top talents from all walks of life and universities.

Either of these two paths is harder than climbing to the sky, and most people would not dare to dream of this situation.

Han's father and mother had long thought that their son was so outstanding that he would definitely have the opportunity to study abroad in the future, but they did not expect that this opportunity would come before he graduated.

Han Li: "It's almost certain, because Mr. Liu called me over today to talk about this."

Father Han: "Since it is what Mr. Liu said, then there must be no problem. I didn't expect that my son, Han Fugui, would also become a talent studying abroad, hahahaha."

After hearing this, Mother Han glanced at Father Han in annoyance, turned around and looked at Han Li and asked with concern.

"Son, have you decided to go abroad? And what do you need to prepare for going abroad? Mom will start preparing for you now. My son will not suffer anywhere."

Han Li had regained the feeling of being favored at this time, but his parents really couldn't help him with this matter, and he had no intention of exchanging the very limited foreign currency on the market in China. With the help of the golden finger, he would not suffer too much in life no matter where he went.

"Dad, Mom, if nothing unexpected happens, I should be sent to England this time. Besides, when you go abroad on a business trip, the country will take care of everything, so we don't have to prepare anything."

Han's mother: "Yingjili, what's the temperature over there? Should I prepare a few more sets of clothes?"

Han Li: "Mom, really, there is no need. The clothing styles over there are very different from ours. If you wear something different, it will be hard for them to accept you, and it will also easily lead to discrimination.

Therefore, the country will give everyone a clothing allowance before they are sent abroad, in order to help the expatriates better and more quickly integrate into the local population.”

Mother Han: "What about food? What if you are not used to the food there? Should I bring some of your favorite food?"

"Mom, have you forgotten that I once trained at the Beijing Hotel for more than half a month? During that time, I already knew a lot about foreign food.

Besides, flying is different from taking a car or a train. Not only are many things not allowed, but there is also a limit on how much each person can bring.

Han Li explained some knowledge in this regard to his parents. Before leaving after dinner, he asked his parents not to tell anyone about this matter. Then he slowly walked towards Hou Hai's house.

However, Han Li took his mother's words to heart. First of all, the food there was really bad. Secondly, he really didn't want to cook unless it was absolutely necessary.

Therefore, Han Li bought some cooked food and braised food on his way back and put them in the decomposition space, and decided to buy some ready-made food and put it in when he had time.

It was a little unrealistic to eat like this for a year, because Han Li had to eat with other people a lot of the time, but at least he had to refresh his mouth after eating enough of those boring foods and restore his abused taste buds.

After Han Li returned home, washed up, and lay on the bed, he took out the two recent letters from Hao Hongmin and began to read them again.

After a long time, Han Li put away the two letters, put his mental energy into the vast peach garden and began to prepare the medicinal materials needed for certain prescriptions.
