I'm back in 1990

Chapter 936: Going to the Opening Ceremony

"Little brother, why aren't you coming with us?" Zeng Xia looked at Huang Xiaochuan with a puzzled expression.

The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is at the beginning of next month, and several families have said they want to go to the venue to see the grand event. It is said that the opening ceremony will be very grand.

Huang Xiaochuan explained the reason: "My maternal grandmother is too old to take with me, so I can stay home and keep her company. That way, my maternal uncle and aunt can go."

Upon hearing this, Zeng Jiahua immediately waved his hand: "I'm not going. Watching TV at home is just as good. There will definitely be a lot of people there, and I don't like being jostled around."

My aunt also said, "That's right, your uncle and I can just stay home and watch TV. You young people can go, and we old folks can stay home and watch the house so that you won't have to look after us when we go out."

It wasn't that the uncle and aunt didn't want to go; it was just that they felt that if they went, Huang Xiaochuan would have to stay and take care of his grandmother, so they said they wouldn't go.

My grandmother is now very hard of hearing and needs to wear a hearing aid to hear others speak. Huang Xiaochuan stood behind her and massaged her. My grandmother looked very comfortable and enjoyed the happiness of family life.

Zeng Hong then said, "Grandma seems to be in very good health, why don't we take her with us?"

The aunt was startled when she heard this and scolded her eldest daughter, "Don't give me such advice. Don't you know how old your grandmother is?"

The uncle glared at his eldest daughter angrily: "That's right, I already said, you guys go ahead, your mother and I aren't going, we'll stay home and take care of Grandma."

Zeng Hong could only look at her younger brother. In this family, only her parents listened to her brother.

Seeing his older sister looking at him, Huang Xiaochuan naturally knew what she meant, so he advised, "Uncle, Aunt, watching live is definitely different from watching TV at home. Besides, you haven't taken my aunt out to play many times, so just think of this as taking my aunt on a trip."

Besides, the tickets are all registered under my name, so it would be a waste not to go. I didn't buy a ticket for myself in the first place, and now I can't buy one anymore, so going would be pointless; I wouldn't be able to get in.

When the uncle and aunt heard this, they looked at each other. They were thrifty people who had always been careful with their money. They heard that the tickets had already been bought, and it would indeed be inappropriate not to go.

Seeing her parents' hesitant expressions, Zeng Hong pressed her advantage: "That's right, the tickets are all registered to your names. It would be such a waste if you didn't go!"

Grandma then spoke up: "You guys go have fun! I'm fine on my own."

Huang Xiaochuan gently patted his grandmother's hand: "I don't have any tickets anyway, so I might as well stay home with you."

The grandmother knew this was an excuse her grandson had made up on purpose, and she laughed, "Alright, then the little monkey can stay home and keep me company. You all go ahead!"

Grandma's words were like a royal decree, final and decisive.

At this point, the uncle, Zeng Jiahua, asked his nephew, "Are your parents going?"

Huang Xiaochuan replied, "Yes, my father-in-law and mother-in-law, my elder brother's and second elder brother's father-in-law and mother-in-law, my elder brother's wife and my elder brother's wife, all of them will go. The children will also go. When we arrive in Yanjing, I will arrange all your food, lodging and transportation."

Seeing that her sister-in-law and two nephews and nieces were not on the list, Zeng Xia asked, "Why aren't Yu Xiang, Xiao Dong, and Xiao Duo going?"

"The new drug is about to be approved for market launch. Yu Xiang is busy with this. She is going to Hong Kong tomorrow, and Xiao Duo is going with her. Xiao Dong is going to summer camp and also has to participate in a competition, so there is a time conflict and he can't go either."

Meanwhile, far away in Qingjiang, the entire Jiang family was also having a lively discussion.

"Really? My aunt is taking us to Beijing to see the opening ceremony?"

Jiang Yufei, who had just heard the news from her parents, was overjoyed.

Jiang Yufei's mother, Wu Xin, who is also Jiang Rong's sister-in-law, said, "How could this be fake? Before your vacation, your aunt had already asked for all of our family's ID numbers, just for this matter."

"Wow! This is amazing!" Upon learning from her mother that her aunt had arranged this, 21-year-old Jiang Yufei excitedly spun around the house several times. Jiang Yufei might not believe other people's stories, but if it was her aunt, then it was a different story.

Because my aunt's brother-in-law has that ability; he's the richest man in Asia!

Grandma Ji Lan covered her eyes with her hands: "Okay, okay! Stop spinning it, it's making me dizzy."

At this moment, Jiang Yufei's father, Jiang Shan, instructed, "Don't spread this around the world, do you hear me?"

"I know! I know!" Jiang Yufei replied impatiently to her father.

Having always enjoyed showing off, she immediately forgot her father's instructions after returning to her room.

She turned on her computer and logged into "Liaoliao," an instant messaging software developed by Soso.com.

She then posted a message in her university dormitory group chat, along with a smug emoji.

"I'm going to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympics next month! I'm so excited!"

The chat group quickly responded.

A person named "Long-sleeved and Skillful Dancer" asked, "Really? Tickets for the opening ceremony are so hard to get, weren't they sold out long ago?"

Another person, nicknamed "Little Girl Not Rich," chimed in, "Yeah, there are only tens of thousands of tickets in total. After deducting international friends and guests, we can only sell about two-thirds of them. If you divide that among all the people in the country, it's 28,000 people for every one ticket. Feifei, are you kidding us?"

The last person, named Zhu Yanyurun, also spoke up: "Tell the truth, where did the tickets come from?"

Jiang Yufei looked at the screen and laughed heartily, her emotions running high as she typed rapidly on the keyboard.

Believe it or not, I didn't lie to you.

The young woman replied quickly: "I'll believe you if you bring me a gift."

Jiang Yufei simply typed two words: "Bye!" and then left the group chat, as long as her goal was achieved.

A few days later, a Coaster bus arrived in Qingjiang and picked up the Jiang family, taking them to Shanghai.

"Mom and Dad! Big brother and sister-in-law!" Jiang Rong was overjoyed to see her family.

"Wow, Feifei is so pretty!" Jiang Rong hugged her niece affectionately upon seeing her.

"Hello, Auntie!" Jiang Yufei quickly and respectfully greeted Jiang Rong.

"Yes, yes!" Jiang Rong replied with a smile, then instructed Huang Zemian, "What are you standing there for? Call someone!"

"Grandpa and Grandma, Uncle and Aunt, Sister Feifei." Huang Zemian stepped forward to greet them and even took the luggage from his grandfather's hands.

Jiang Honggang was very happy and let his grandson take the luggage from his hands.

Ji Lan was a little reluctant and glared at her husband unhappily, while Jiang Honggang pretended not to see it.

"How tall has Mianmian grown?" Ji Lan smiled and gestured to show her grandson's height.

Huang Zemian is already fifteen years old (by Chinese reckoning), a time when he is growing taller and has a layer of downy hair on his lip, making him look more and more like a young man.

Jiang Rong welcomed her family members into her home.

Once inside, Jiang Yufei's eyes were glued to the view; her aunt's house was so beautiful, everything about it was wonderful.
