Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

After Xiao Qian came back, he told Li Tianyi what he had heard. Li Tianyi looked at his father and mother and said, "Mom and Dad, do you want to try Cantonese-style morning tea? I think it's pretty good. The elderly here like it very much."

Li's father and mother didn't understand what morning tea was. It was almost evening, so why was there still morning tea? But Li Tianyi said it was good, and he would definitely not lie to them, so Li's father and mother nodded in agreement.

Everyone went back to their room to change their clothes, then came downstairs. Xiao Qian led the way, and everyone followed him to a three-story building.

They came to a table and sat down. The waiter brought the menu. Li Tianyi did not let the parents and children order, as they had never been out before and probably didn't know what it was. He took the menu and checked some of the dishes he had eaten before, as well as some porridge. After ordering some, Li Tianyi handed the menu to the waiter, who took the menu and arranged the dishes.

Before that, the waiter brought a pot of black tea, and Li Tianyi taught everyone how to wash the cups and then pour the tea. Xiao Qian and the other three were very nervous and refused to let Li Tianyi pour them tea no matter what.

Li Haoran and Li Zhiyuan were called by Xiaoxue to pour tea for everyone. It was the time of the feast, and many old men and women came in groups to eat, or the whole family, including the elderly and children, would book a table and have dinner here.

Everyone was drinking tea and chatting. After a while, Li Tian's meals were served one after another, including shrimp dumplings, chicken feet, beef tripe, beef tripe and so on.

Looking at the exquisite small plates, a small plate and a steamer, Li Tianyi told everyone not to be polite, as he was treating everyone today and they could eat as much as they wanted.

Everyone picked up the food and tasted it. Their eyes lit up instantly. It was really delicious. There was no heavy oil or salt seasoning, and the fragrance of the food came through naturally, making people unable to stop.

Adults might be able to restrain themselves a little, but the two children were eating with their mouths full of oil. Li Tianyi had eaten it once many years ago, and now that he tasted the delicacy again, he ate a little more.

The meal took two hours. Mr. and Mrs. Li felt a little embarrassed, but Li Tianyi told them that the elderly here sometimes have breakfast from morning to noon, so there is no need to feel embarrassed.

Because they ate a little too much in the evening, Li Tianyi took everyone for a walk in a nearby park. They didn't return to the hotel until 9 o'clock in the evening.

After a tiring day, everyone took a shower and went to bed. The next morning, after breakfast, Li Tianyi asked Xiao Qian to buy tickets, while they waited for Xiao Qian in the hotel lobby.

Soon Xiao Qian came back with the boat tickets. Li Tianyi and the others took their luggage to the dock hall. After ticket checking, everyone boarded the ship.

The ship would have to sail on the sea for three hours before reaching the port city, so after putting their luggage away, Li Haoran and Li Zhiyuan clamored to go see the sea. Li Tianyi asked Xiao Qian to take them there, while Li Tianyi and Li's father and others sat in the seats in the cabin and enjoyed the scenery on the sea.

After enjoying the sea breeze on the deck for a while, the two children felt bored, so they went into the cabin and sat down.

Three hours passed quickly, and when Li Tianyi and his companions arrived at the port city dock, Lou Xiaoe was already waiting for them there.

When he saw Li Tianyi and his family coming, although he didn't know Xiaoxue and his family, he could guess that they were Li Tianyi's family.

Lou Xiao'e shook hands with Li Tianyi, and then introduced herself to Xiaoxue and the others. Xiaoxue had only heard Lou Xiao'e's voice on the phone before, and now she finally met her in person.

After everyone said hello, Lou Xiao'e led them out of the dock. At this time, there were two nanny cars parked by the dock. They were specially brought to pick up Li Tianyi and his family.

After everyone got in the car, Lou Xiao'e said, "Brother Li, let's not go back to the villa yet. I have already booked a seat at the hotel to welcome my uncle, aunt, and sister-in-law."

Li Tianyi looked at Xiaoxue, who felt a little embarrassed. "Xiao'e, is this too much trouble for you?"

"What's the big deal? Brother Li and I have known each other for so many years. Besides, Brother Li and I are business partners. Isn't it my duty to welcome you, sister-in-law?"

Li Tianyi patted Xiaoxue's hand and said, "Just listen to Xiao'e. She has been in Hongcheng for a long time and knows more than us."

The driver took Li Tianyi to the door of a five-star hotel and put the luggage in the car. Lou Xiaoe took them upstairs to the private room that had been booked.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e's second son Zhang Baiyao was already waiting here. Lou Xiao'e introduced her second son to everyone. Zhang Baiyao was very capable and was a talent trained in the business world.

During the meal, Lou Xiao'e did not talk about company matters. She just made an appointment with Li Tianyi to visit the company tomorrow and discuss matters then.

After finishing the meal, Lou Xiao'e asked the driver to return the car and went to the villa area. As they got closer to the villa area, Li's father and the others found that the courtyards here were all large and deep with great privacy. Lou Xiao'e explained to them that people here attach great importance to personal privacy, especially since these people are all rich and this is even more true.

Although Li Tianyi has not lived in this villa in these years, he has always kept it clean, so everything here is complete and you can move in with just your luggage. Not to mention that Lou Xiaoe specially hired someone to clean it up a few days ago, so the villa is very clean inside and out.

The villa is divided into three floors. Li's father and mother live on the first floor, Li Tianyi and his wife live on the second floor, and Xiao Qian and his two children also live on the second floor so that they can protect Li Tianyi nearby. The two children live on the third floor because they say this can broaden their views.

Li Tianyi didn't care about them as long as they didn't feel tired. After Lou Xiao'e sent them to the place, she said goodbye and left. This made Li's father and others feel that Lou Xiao'e was a very good person.

When there were no outsiders at home, Xiaoxue and Li's mother went to the kitchen first. After opening the refrigerator, they found it was full of food, enough for them to eat for several days. Li Tianyi thought that this must have been prepared by Lou Xiaoe.

After everyone's novelty wore off a little, they went back to the room to pack their luggage. After Li Tianyi and Xiaoxue entered the room, Li Tianyi talked to Xiaoxue about the itinerary for the next two days. Tomorrow, Li Tianyi needs to go to the company and take care of some things. He asked Xiaoxue to take her parents to rest at home for a day, and then arrange someone to take them to the port city the day after tomorrow.

Xiaoxue had no objection to this. She was indeed a little tired after the past two days. They would be staying here for nearly a month anyway, so there was no rush to go out and play.

Afterwards, Li Tianyi went to his parents' room and told them about the arrangements. He asked them to take a rest first and tell them if they felt uncomfortable anywhere. The hospitals here are better than those in the mainland, so they don't have to worry about their health.
