    Yu Meixia wore light makeup today, but she was wrapped in a thick down jacket, which made her look a little bloated.  It is also difficult for Hong Kong people to spend the winter in Pengcheng. The winter temperature in Hong Kong is around ten degrees Celsius all year round, while the winter temperature in Pengcheng is basically below zero.  Li Rui got out of the car and helped Yu Meixia put the suitcase into the trunk. Yu Meixia handed a large paper bag to Li Rui and said, "Happy New Year, this is a gift for you." "Wow! There are also gifts.  "Yeah!" Li Rui was quite surprised. When she took it out, she saw that it was a leather jacket from an Italian brand. This kind of clothing was not available in Pengcheng. Could it be that she bought it specifically for herself when she returned to Hong Kong?  If that's the case, why didn't I give it to you until now?  However, Li Rui was quite happy to be given a gift to others on the first day of the new year. He took off his down jacket and threw it into the back seat. He put on this leather jacket and looked at the car's reflector. He was satisfied.  She said: "It fits quite well, not bad! Thank you, Meixia." Yu Meixia looked happy when she saw Li Rui immediately put on the clothes she gave him, and smiled: "It's always not good to go to someone else's house empty-handed during the Chinese New Year.  "The two got into the car chatting and laughing. In the closed space of the car, a unique feminine fragrance suddenly filled the air. Li Rui smelled this refreshing aroma, and his spirits immediately lifted. He stepped on the accelerator and drove the car in the direction of South Bridge.  Speeding.  National Highway 206 was still bumpy, but there were very few trucks transporting coal during the Spring Festival, so the car picked up speed easily, and in less than an hour it stopped steadily at the door of the Li family compound.  Fang Qiang and Aunt Fang walked out of their small courtyard after hearing the sound. They were surprised to see Yu Meixia coming out of the car. Although Yu Meixia followed Zhao Wenlong and Zhu Jie and met Aunt Fang last time, Aunt Fang  It was obvious that he couldn't remember, and he was still secretly asking Fang Qiang if this was Li Rui's girlfriend?  "Where is this? This is Manager Yu from Ascendas Company in Hong Kong." Fang Qiang muttered and quickly ran up to help carry the luggage.  "If you're not your girlfriend, why did you come to someone's house for the Chinese New Year?" Although Aunt Fang had doubts in her heart, she thought that her son was doing engineering work for Ascendas Company, so she hurriedly greeted him warmly.  Yu Meixia obviously came prepared. After entering the house, she opened her suitcase and took out two small boxes. One was given to Aunt Fang, "Aunt Fang, happy New Year!" "How do you say this!" Aunt Fang seemed at a loss.  Unexpectedly, this Hong Kong female manager actually gave her a gift, but she didn't dare to pick it up.  Yu Meixia smiled slightly and opened the box. Inside was a brightly colored silk scarf.  "Aunt Fang, I'm going to stay here for a few more days, please excuse me." After saying that, he took the initiative to wrap the silk scarf around Aunt Fang's neck.  When Li Rui saw it, he smiled and said, "Hey! Aunt Fang, you look several years younger when you put on this scarf." Although Aunt Fang is already over forty, she looks quite young. Besides, she loves beauty.  Everyone has this desire. Aunt Fang was also a well-known beauty when she was young. She also liked to dress up and so on. She liked the bright color of this silk scarf and couldn't help but blush when she heard Li Rui's joke.  He said awkwardly: "How can this be so embarrassing!" "Since it's from Meixia, just accept it." Li Rui said with a smile.  "Fang Qiang, this is yours." Yu Meixia handed another box to Fang Qiang.  "I have one too!" Fang Qiang said in surprise. He was not as polite as his mother. He couldn't wait to open the box and found a pair of black sheepskin gloves inside.  While putting it on, she exaggeratedly said: "It fits, it really fits! Thank you, Manager Yu." Yu Meixia smiled and said, "It's not working time now, so I call you Qiangzi, so you don't have to.  I¡¯m Manager Yu, you can call me Sister Yu or Sister Meixia.¡± Fang Qiang scratched his head in embarrassment and said, ¡°Then I¡¯ll call you Sister Meixia! Thank you for the gift.¡±  Aunt Fang also said quickly: "Manager Yu will stay here for a few more days. I'm going to clean up the guest room in the east wing and turn on the heater. The bedding and everything are all new. The weather was nice in the past two days.  Come out and dry it, it will be nice and warm." "Excuse me, Aunt Fang." "It's okay, it's okay! Then, Qiangzi, help make tea for Manager Yu," Aunt Fang asked Fang Qiang.  He walked away, still fiddling with the silk scarf on his neck, looking pleased with himself.  "Sister Meixia, tea or coffee?" Fang Qiang asked.  "Coffee." "Okay." But when he opened the coffee can, he was dumbfounded. The coffee Li Rui had here was not the instant coffee or ordinary coffee bought outside, but individual coffee beans.  .  "Brother Rui, how do you get this thing?" Fang Qiang asked helplessly.  Yu Meixia looked at it and said with a smile: "This is a coffee shop."The beans must be freshly ground and cooked, so I'll do it.  ¡± Yu Meixia took down a beautifully crafted siphon coffee machine and a small hand-cranked coffee grinder from the shelf. She skillfully poured some coffee beans into the grinder, then shook the handle and crunched the coffee beans.  Grind it into fine powder and then pour it into the coffee machine, add water, and light the alcohol lamp below. After a while, as the coffee in the pot boils, a strong coffee smell wafts out. Yu Meixia enjoys smelling the coffee.  Fang Qiang looked at the whole process in stunned silence and muttered: "So it's so troublesome, it's better to buy bags of instant coffee, just like tea, just brew it with boiling water.  " "You are just a country bumpkin. This is how you drink your coffee so that it has taste and accent. Do you understand?  "Li Rui walked out of the room with a smile, smelled the aroma of the coffee, and smiled at Yu Meixia: "The craftsmanship is good, and the coffee you make is much better than mine.  "    "of course.  "Yu Meixia said proudly, scalding the coffee cup with boiling water, "The coffee is ready, would you all like to have a cup?  "    "OK!  "Li Rui was very interested. In fact, this set of things was left behind by him before. After moving here from the municipal government dormitory, it was rare for him to cook it himself. But Fang Qiang shook his head, "I can't get used to this stuff.  , I'd better go help my mother with work.  " Li Rui added two cubes of sugar to the coffee, stirred it carefully, took a sip, closed his eyes slightly to taste it, and praised: "Not bad, it tastes great!  " But Yu Meixia didn't add anything, she just took a sip of the original taste and said: "It must be that your coffee beans are good, huh!  Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee.  "As he said that, he looked at Li Rui and said with a smile: "I really can't tell. To use a Chinese saying, you are quite bourgeois!  " "Hahaha What kind of qualifications do I have!  Zhang Zhuoyang brought it all for me. To be honest, I really can¡¯t tell where this coffee comes from.  Why don't you add anything? You're afraid of gaining weight!  " Yu Meixia shook her head and said: "I am used to it. When I was studying in the United States, I often stayed up late and could only rely on coffee to stay awake.  " "You study so hard?  "Li Rui said with a smile. Yu Meixia smiled bitterly and said: "I have to work during the day to earn tuition, and only have time to read at night.  Despite the superficial prosperity of Hong Kong people like us, there are still many poor people.  I was poor before.  " "No pain, no gain!"  You see, you are doing well now, little rich woman!  " Yu Meixia glanced at him sideways and said coquettishly: "Don't say it so harshly, okay?  What little rich woman, am I that old?  "    "sorry Sorry!  It should be Sister Xiaofu. I said the wrong thing.  "Li Rui laughed and apologized. "By the way, Mr. Zhang has returned to Yanjing. Why haven't you been to the New Year?  In fact, I tried to call you yesterday, but I didn¡¯t expect you to be in Pengcheng as well.  "Then Yu Meixia asked curiously. Li Rui didn't want to mention his grudges with the Zhang family to outsiders, so he spread his hands and said, "Busy!  You also know that our Nanqiao was still conducting a major production safety inspection some time ago, and it is not over yet. I don¡¯t feel relieved to leave.  Besides, if I go to Yanjing, wouldn¡¯t you have nowhere to go?  It¡¯s so pitiful to spend the New Year alone!  " Yu Meixia covered her coffee cup with both hands, "I'm used to it. I've been alone since I was a child. It's not much different here than in Hong Kong.  "As he said, he smiled again: "Speaking of which, I really want to thank you this time for letting me come to Nanqiao to celebrate the New Year. Aunt Fang and Qiangzi are very enthusiastic.  " Li Rui is actually very curious about Yu Meixia's life experience. Ever since she was frightened at the Shagou Guest House last time and said incoherent words, Li Rui has heard that her childhood seemed unhappy and could even be described as miserable.  . But this is her privacy after all. If Yu Meixia didn't mention it herself, he wouldn't take the initiative to touch her inner pain. "It's not easy for the two of them. In the past, Qiangzi was a soldier outside, and Aunt Fang was the only one left.  Fortunately, Qiangzi is still promising, and Aunt Fang now has more smiles on her face.  "Li Rui said with emotion. In fact, sometimes he still envies Qiangzi. No matter what, he still has a loving mother. Thinking of his mother who died young, Li Rui couldn't help but show a hint of loneliness on his face. Yu Meixia  Seemingly remembering his own past, he sighed and said: "Actually, it's not easy for everyone, but people have to live, and while living, they have to face their own lives. If you want to be happy, you have to work hard to change and fight against fate.  .  " Li Rui nodded. After his rebirth, he felt the same way about Yu Meixia's words. Why did he stay in Nanqiao? He didn't want to change his original destiny. Rather than remain unknown, he would rather work hard and pursue a vigorous career.  Life. "Look at us, we are talking about such a heavy topic during the Chinese New Year, and we haven't asked you yet. In the past two days, youNo matter how you arrange it, I don¡¯t want to stay here. What fun things do you have in Nanqiao?  "Yu Meixia suddenly woke up and said with a smile. Li Rui thought for a while and said: "I have something to do tomorrow, and I will be free when I finish my work.  Speaking of Nanqiao, what is there to do?  In addition to Qingyun Mountain in Shagou, I think there is only Qingshanquan Town. There are mountains and water there, and it is a nice place. Speaking of which, I go there often, but I have never had a good time. Why don't we go there tomorrow?  "    "OK!  "Yu Meixia suddenly said happily.
