Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 288: Foreign country

Li Jianbo raised his head and looked at the passenger plane flying over his head. Li Wei was just above.

From the bottom of his heart, he blessed her, and everything went smoothly. One year is short, and he will also take time to visit her in England. The distance has stretched them far, but I hope that the distance can close the hearts of the two. He was waiting, waiting for the day when Li Wei nodded and said yes.

The phone in his bag rang, and he took out the phone to see that it was the elder who was calling. He pressed the answer button and walked to the parking lot.

"Are you busy lately? Why don't you contact me actively?"

"Afraid to interrupt your rest, are you okay?"

"Fortunately, your aunt told me about your situation. I will ask you about some things when I have time. By the way, I have to thank you for your aunt's situation. She seems to have finally stepped out of her demon. ."

"My aunt has also worked hard, and ordinary difficulties can't defeat her." Li Jianbo continued to walk, and suddenly he remembered something and hurriedly asked: "Do you plan to go to London to develop your career?"

"London? I only have one pair of hands. I can't reach that far. If you are willing to help me, you can consider..."

Listening to the call from his mother, Li Jianbo said in his heart: Wei, wait, I will be by your side soon.

Winter in London is very long, and January is almost the coldest season. There are many humid, cold, and foggy weather. Li Wei and his party have been here for a week, but still have not adapted to the weather here.

Li Wei collected the clothes that were hanging outside, and it still felt moist to the touch. It seemed that a set of drying equipment was necessary.

Chiu Ci, who was in the same dormitory, was sitting cross-legged on the bed, wrapped in a thick quilt, and reading a thick English book in her hand. She is a top student who graduated from a certain media university in the capital. She has just joined the TV station for two years and was assigned to the Ministry of Finance and Economics to do some financial reporting. Ability to act and outstanding business literacy. The TV station had spotted her good seed, so he deliberately cultivated it, so this time he was also sent to study abroad.

Li Wei packed up his clothes, tidyed up his own things, and cleaned up the house again.

They were accompanied by four women. She and Qiu Ci were assigned to the same dormitory. Although they were on the same TV station before, they did not know each other. Now in a foreign country, they can take care of each other and gradually become good friends.

Qiu Ci's login QQ rang, and she clicked on it. It was a video call request. Qiu Ci finally clicked on the video, and Li Wei glanced at it. The opposite was a handsome man, Qiu Ci's boyfriend. After coming to Westminster for a week, Chiu Ci had to talk to her boyfriend every day, and Li Wei had long been used to it.

After cleaning the house, Li Wei planned to make something to eat. He opened the refrigerator and took a look. Butter, jam, and a small box of cut meat. There are a lot of potatoes on the ground.

In addition to the weather, there is another thing that I can’t adapt to this diet. Even if you start your own business on weekends, it is difficult to buy the vegetables and spices you need in the supermarket outside.

Li Wei did his best to cook two dishes and burned a pot of delicious soup. The food was brought up, Qiu Ci smelled the familiar taste, and smiled openly and said: "I live in a house next to you, I really enjoy it."

The two had eaten, and the afternoon class was about to begin. The two packed up their books and went to school. Li Wei and Qiu Ci rode through a quiet street. It is difficult to meet an Asian face in an exotic setting.

The days of studying abroad are actually quite boring. Every day I run at two o'clock in the dormitory and school, and finally get through the language period, and then all kinds of professional knowledge are pressed like a mountain. How much knowledge can be learned in a year depends on personal efforts.

After a week of class, it was finally Saturday's turn. The colleagues in the group are now classmates, so they decided to visit the bustling city of London. From Westminster to London, the subway can be reached. Convenient and fast.

They first visited the British Museum, and Li Wei stood in the museum to see other history. Perhaps because of her identity, she is always full of respect for things in history.

From the Egyptian mummy to the Rosetta monument, there are still many Chinese things. Seeing his own country's things being exhibited in museums in other countries, Li Wei felt confused. She lingered in the exhibition hall of oriental culture for a long time and refused to leave. She even saw a familiar carved jade bowl. There was such an emerald bowl in Zhaoyang Hall at the beginning. The emerald bowl was placed on a bogu shelf. It did not look very dazzling among the gold and silver ornaments, but in the end, I went to Chongqing Palace with her and stayed there. On the shelf of Chongqing Palace, it has become the one still inconspicuous in her collection.

Now I saw the only jade bowl, and in museums in other countries, she felt unspeakable.

After visiting the museum, everyone proposed to go to the museum. They crossed several streets and found a restaurant at random. A few people just studied the menu and looked at it for a long time. The last one ordered a steak.

Many dishes in this country are based on potatoes, and the cooking method is very simple. Differences in diet have been bothering them.

Barely filling their stomachs, everyone plans the next trip. Chiu Ci proposed to take a boat trip on the Thames. This suggestion hit it off and everyone responded.

During the first time, everyone was full of curiosity and freshness about this country, and always ran outside whenever they had free time. In early February, Li Wei followed his colleagues to Manchester to watch a football match. My colleague is a fan of Manchester United. This is a derby in the same city. The event is very popular, and Red Devils fans with banners can be seen everywhere.

Fang Bin gave Li Wei a piece of Manchester United's headscarf and signaled her to wrap it up. Li Wei did not disappoint Fang Bin's intention, and she was wrapped up as expected, holding a small flag, and already a full-fledged enthusiastic fan.

They entered the field with the tickets, found the position marked on the ticket and sat down. The location here is actually not very ideal, so Fang Bin is ready to wear a sight glass. For Li Wei, it was just coming out with friends, she didn't have much interest in football matches.

It didn't take long for the players to enter the field to warm up, and then the whistle of the game sounded. Fang Bin said angrily: "Why is Beckham on the bench? Can't he be on this time?"

With the scoring, the game gradually entered a white-hot stage. The fans here are very enthusiastic and have been singing the team song to cheer their favorite team from the beginning of the game. Li Wei's emotions were rendered by the left and right, and it was quickly incorporated into it. It turns out that feeling the atmosphere on site and watching the broadcast in front of the TV are completely two concepts. Football is also very interesting.
