Among the five major European leagues, except for the Premier League, the other four leagues have a two- to three-week winter break during the Christmas and New Year's Day holidays. Only the Premier League does not. Not only does the Premier League have no winter break, but the schedules around New Year's Day are also particularly dense, with a game almost every 3 days. Overseas players who play for the Premier League are difficult to go home and reunite with their relatives on Christmas and New Year's Day holidays.

For coaches or players who have been playing in the Premier League, they have become accustomed to the days without a winter break. However, for those who transfer from Premier League to clubs such as Serie A, or from clubs such as Serie A to Premier League, there is a huge difference.

In the past, after playing the last league game before Christmas, Chen Yu packed up his luggage and prepared to return to China for the next day. However, when he came to Liverpool, Chen Yu could only spend the boring and cold training and competitions.

It was only six o'clock after the press conference after playing Watford, but it was already dark. Chen Yu drove home and Zhao Muyu had already prepared the steaming meal.

It has been almost two months since I returned from the United States. Zhang Youzhen's clinic has opened in Chinatown, but Zhao Muyu's entrepreneurial plan has not been implemented yet. After all, opening a fashion store is different from opening a clinic. The clinic is at most a rent, while the fashion store needs to purchase goods. She is not familiar with all aspects of Liverpool. If she does it rashly, she may even lose money. Zhao Muyu is unwilling to use Chen Yu's money. Her funds are left by her house in her hometown. Opening a store is enough, but it will definitely not stand the tossing.

Zhang Youzhen ate in the clinic. Zhang Shubin had social engagements outside. Only Chen Yu and Zhao Muyu were eating at home. After dinner, Chen Yu said, "Mu Yu, how are you going to spend Christmas?"

Zhao Muyu said depressedly: "Live like in previous years."

Chen Yu said: "You grew up in Italy, why are you not interested in celebrating Christmas?"

Zhao Muyu said: "You are not on holidays, and your father is going to go back to China to celebrate Christmas with your mother. Sister Youzhen doesn't like celebrating the foreign festival, so I don't have any interest."

Chen Yu was slightly stunned and said, "Is Uncle Zhang going back to China?"

Zhao Muyu said: "Yes, Dad Yu now has some funds and is planning to invest in China. When you retire, he also wants to hand over his foreign business to Brother Zhang Han to return to China to retire. Dad Yu has been wandering overseas for so many years and he is a little tired. Recently, he often hears him talk about his youth."

Chen Yu sighed, "Yes, Uncle Zhang is so old, he is socializing outside every day, and he is worried. No wonder he has the idea of ​​retreating bravely. When I get old, I may also go back to the mainland."

Zhao Muyu said quietly: "You can all return to your roots, but I have no roots."

Seeing Zhao Muyu's pitiful appearance, Chen Yu touched her head, "Silly girl, why are you sighing? Brother is your root. Wherever you little brother Yu is, you will take you there."

Zhao Muyu shook his head and said, "I treat me as a child again. If you want to get married, your wife will ask you to bring a sister of a different surname."

Chen Yu laughed in silence and said, "You just said I want to get married, aren't you getting married?"

Zhao Muyu said firmly: "I won't marry you, I won't marry you in this life."

Chen Yu smiled bitterly. She understood what Zhao Muyu meant. Zhao Muyu had confessed to him. He also liked this little sister very much. However, he now has a girlfriend who is famous all over the world, and her girlfriend treats him well. He asked him to abandon Knightley and choose Zhao Muyu. He could not make such a decision.

After a moment of silence, Chen Yu chose a topic and said: "Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and our afternoon training may end early. I will take you and Xiaozhi to Merseyside to have a reunion dinner together the day after Christmas. After arriving in Liverpool, I haven't had time to see the memorial hall of the Beatles and Titanic, nor the largest Christian church in Great Britain."

Zhao Muyu curled her lips and said, "You only know how to play football. You don't see a lot of things in Merseyside. But you came to your girlfriend's hometown. Wouldn't she come to see you on Christmas?"

Chen Yu said: "It's not clear yet, so I'll spend it together when I come. It's no big deal."

The two were talking when Zhang Shubin and Zhang Youzhen came back together.

Zhang Shubin said to Chen Yu excitedly: "We have negotiated the endorsement contract with Reebok, with a year of £4.5 million, which is higher than Nike and Adidas. However, if Reebok is not a Liverpool jersey sponsor, we will not get the price."

Chen Yu smiled and said: "This is certain, Reebok definitely doesn't want me to wear Adidas or Nike shoes to participate in Liverpool games."

Zhang Shubin said: "I guess Reebok also saw that your jersey sales in Liverpool are very popular, and he has surpassed Gerald in just one month."

Chen Yu said: "England is worthy of being the hometown of modern football. The football atmosphere is so good. I accepted a Chinese like me so quickly."

Zhang Shubin laughed and said, "We have a connection with the UK, and we have been dealing with each other for almost two hundred years."

Zhang Youzhen said: "Yes, they invaded us with opium back then, but now we have captured Britain with football."

Chen Yu said: "Your mind is full of these things, not even Christmas, it's old feudal."

Zhang Youzhen said lightly: "What does Christmas have to do with us Chinese? Why do we have to spend it?"

Zhang Shubin smiled and said, "Actually, the festival is just to find an excuse to take a break. Xiaoyu, Youzhen, Mu Yu, how do you arrange Christmas? The disadvantage of playing football in the UK is that there is no winter break. Fortunately, Christmas is not our traditional festival, so let's join in the fun."

Zhang Youzhen said: "I want to be on duty, but."

Zhao Muyu saw that Chen Yu didn't say anything.

Chen Yu smiled and said, "I have nothing to do with it. I have to train and have no time. At most, I just go to church and have a meal when I come back. I heard Mu Yu say that Uncle Zhang is going to go back to China for Christmas, right?"

Zhang Shubin said: "Yes, it's mainly about going back to deal with some business. This is not a blessing for you. In the past two years, I have some money on hand. I started a real estate company in the Imperial Capital and bought a piece of land to open it during Christmas."

Chen Yu also invested in real estate in the imperial capital, but he did not inquire much. The main reason was that his old classmates were taking care of it. He did not know much about domestic real estate. He just heard from his old classmates that the real estate in the imperial capital is very popular now, and their company's profits doubled in just one year.

"Uncle Zhang has a good vision. He should invest in money when he has money. The broker's business has not been long since. After all, this is the territory of Europeans."

Zhang Shubin said: "Yes, without you, the players here will not trust us. If you retire, I will leave the business to Zhang Han with confidence and return to China to find a beautiful place to retire."

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang is ready for retirement, I don't know when."

Zhao Muyu said: "You are at the peak of your career, and Sister Youzhen's clinic has also opened. I haven't started my business yet."

Zhang Shubin smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, Mu Yu, you have only been in the UK for a few days. You must be patient in your career. You can investigate and wait for me to come back to help you open the store."

Zhao Muyu said, "Thank you, Dad Yu, am I idle? You all go out to work hard, I am the only one at home and I am bored."

Zhang Youzhen was still wearing a Chinese national style clothes. After listening to Zhao Muyu's words, she said, "Muyu, if you are bored, go to the clinic to help me, and you can learn some medical skills."

Zhao Muyu said: "If you have any help, there are no patients at all."

Zhang Youzhen smiled and said, "It's both the time and the time. After Chen Yu went to my clinic twice, there are many patients now, and I'm a little overwhelmed."

Zhao Muyu was surprised and said, "Really, I thought you were very idle and were planning to go out with you tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Zhang Youzhen said: "Fun? There must be no time left. I can't close the door..."

Zhao Muyu said: "It's really troublesome to be a doctor, but will you open your business during the Spring Festival?"

Zhang Youzhen thought for a while and said, "I have to go back once during the Spring Festival. I haven't been back for more than half a year since I went abroad. Even if I develop here in the future, I have to go back to see my master and parents."

Chen Yu said: "That's going back. The Spring Festival is the festival for us Chinese. At that time, sister Mu Yu will go back with Youjian and help me see my grandparents. My competition is very intensive and I don't have time to go back."

Zhang Youzhen took Zhao Muyu's hand and said, "Okay. Muyu, go back with me."

Zhao Muyu said: "It's only the day now, and there is still more than a month until the Spring Festival."

Zhang Youzi heard Chen Yu say that the competition was intensive and said, "Chen Yu, you should be careful now. Your body has just recovered. Excessive fatigue, or malicious foul, will cause great damage to your ligaments. In addition, when you have nothing to do, go to my clinic and I will give you a massage."

Chen Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm using me as an advertisement again. Can't I massage here?"

"This is home, not a place for work." Zhang Youzhen was wearing a face, but there was a smile in his eyes.

Chen Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I will pay attention. In fact, it's hard for me to be tired even if I want to be tired. Now Benitez and the team doctor don't let me play more."

Zhang Youzhen said: "That's right."

As everyone talked and watched TV, it was almost ten o'clock in the blink of an eye. Zhang Shubin looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late, so let's take a break early."

Zhao Muyu yawned and said, "I'm sleepy first, go to bed first."

Zhang Youzhen said: "It's time for me too."

Chen Yu was watching a football program and said, "You guys go to bed first, I'll go to bed later."
