Chapter 127 Recognizing Xia Mi
Zhang Xiaoqin's gaze was too obvious, and the eyes of the people in the room were exploring between the two of them.
Dean He asked, "Director Zhang, do you know him?"
Zhang Xiaoqin is the director of the hospital's nursing department and was also transferred here with Sang Qi.
Zhang Xiaoqin remained calm and shook her head. "I don't know him, but I think he looks familiar. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before. Is he a local?"
Xia Mi admitted, "I'm a local."
When she heard that he was a local, Zhang Xiaoqin felt a strange feeling in her heart, not knowing whether it was disappointment or relief.
"Maybe I've seen him somewhere before, so he looks familiar to me."
Zhang Xiaoqin was finishing up what she had just said.
Xia Mi did not insist and continued to remain quiet, leaving the main court to Dean He and the director who had just come in.
The two talked about some things in the hospital, and Dean He strongly invited Xia Jing, Xia Mi and the other two to his home for a simple meal.
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Xia Jing had to agree.
It was only three o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still more than two hours before the end of get off work. Xia Jing stayed in the hospital, while Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen left the hospital and went for a walk.
Zhang Xiaoqin returned to the office, still feeling uncomfortable, as if a small thorn had pricked her. If she didn't pay attention to it, she wouldn't feel anything, but when she thought about it carefully, it hurt again.
But no matter how she persuaded herself not to think too much, it was of no avail.
It happened that Dean He brought Xia Jing to visit the Nursing Department. Zhang Xiaoqin heard their conversation, closed the documents in her hand and followed them out.
"Dean He." Zhang Xiaoqin pretended to meet the two of them, her tone sounding surprised.
Dean He explained to Zhang Xiaoqin, "I brought my student here for a tour. She was also a doctor in our hospital before. At that time, the hospital was not as grand as it is now."
Dean He has many students, and all of them are doing very well. The worst one is working as a manager in a township hospital.
The woman in front of me didn't seem to be doing well. On the contrary, she looked like she had just returned from the countryside. Although there was nothing wrong with her clothes, they gave people a gray feeling.
Although Zhang Xiaoqin thought so in her heart, she didn't show it on her face.
"Can you please tell me where Comrade Xia is now?"
"It's not that high. I went to build a farm a few years ago for some reasons. I just had time to come back and take a look recently."
When Xia Jing talked about her time on the farm, there was no evasion in her eyes and she openly admitted her experiences.
Speaking of this, Dean He also expressed regret, "At that time, I advised you not to go with him. The worst that could happen is divorce. You don't have any children anyway."
"Let's not talk about the past." Xia Jing smiled, with a gentle smile on her face.
Dean He nodded, and without any intention of continuing, started another topic.
"Why didn't He Yuntang come with you to see me? Didn't you just say that you had a baby? Why did you come alone?"
"He's been very busy on the island recently, and the school can't do without him. The journey is too far, and Yaya has never been far away. I was worried that she wouldn't be able to adapt, so I didn't let her come with him."
Knowing that the teacher was worried about her, Xia Jing explained, "I didn't come here alone either. My niece and niece-in-law came with me."
"Your niece?"
Dean He adjusted his glasses frame, with a pair of puzzled eyes beneath the lenses, "Isn't your niece in Suzhou? Why did she come all the way to pick you up?"
"No, my niece married him."
This shocked Dean He even more. A woman from Suzhou city married to such a remote island. The two places were completely unrelated.
Zhang Xiaoqin followed the two of them quietly, knowing that her decision to follow them was the right one.
The person in front of me is named Xia, and he has a niece who married and moved to the island.
It's hard not to guess.
"Your niece lives in Suzhou. How could she suddenly marry in such a faraway place?" Dean He looked at Xia Jing in surprise.
"It's because of a childhood engagement." Xia Jing didn't know how to explain how Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen met. If she told it, few people would believe it.
"It was a child marriage." Dean He could understand it now.
Zhang Xiaoqin was puzzled. "Comrade Xia, can I ask which island your niece and niece-in-law are on?"
Zhang Xiaoqin was too lazy to make blind guesses, so it was better to just ask directly.
"It's on a small island in Qingcheng. You probably don't know it. It's called Zhuifeng Island." After Xia Jing answered, she looked at Zhang Xiaoqin and asked, "Director Zhang, do you have friends or relatives on the island?"
When Zhang Xiaoqin heard the word Zhuifeng Island, her head buzzed and her heart finally died.
She realized it belatedly and answered, "I guess so."
Originally, Zhang Xiaoqin was still confused about the fact that Huo Jingchen did not have a childhood marriage, but after asking just now, she realized that there was nothing worth reasoning about.
Every clue points to a truth. The person she just saw was Xia Mi! Zhang Xiaoqin's emotions suddenly became complicated. Xia Mi suddenly came back, but there was no letter from her recently. Does this mean that she doesn't want to recognize Sang Qi? Dean He continued to lead Xia Jing to visit the hospital. Zhang Xiaoqin followed halfway and couldn't continue. She urgently needed a private space to sort out her messy mind. -In the evening, Zhang Xiaoqin returned home from work.
I inserted the key into the keyhole, and before I opened the door, I heard laughter coming from inside. It was Xia Yaoyao playing with the children.
Zhang Xiaoqin didn't know whether she should tell Sang Qi about this.
According to Sang Qi's personality, she would definitely ignore Yaoyao for a while, but after spending some time together, she really liked Xia Yaoyao.
If I don't tell her, if one day Xia Mi suddenly changes her mind and comes back to meet her, wouldn't she be exposed when she sees her?
Zhang Xiaoqin was conflicted and stood at the door without turning the key, her whole body stiff outside.
Suddenly the key turned and the door was opened from the inside.
It was Xia Yaoyao. She was still wearing an apron. When she saw her aunt, a smile immediately broke out on her face. "Aunt."
"Why are you standing outside? I've already prepared the meal. I have to work the night shift later. I'll go to the factory after dinner."
Xia Yaoyao felt depressed staying at the Xia family. After she complained to Zhang Xiaoqin for a few words, her aunt told her to eat all her meals there from now on, and at most go back to sleep at night and treat the place as a hotel.
So recently Xia Yaoyao has been eating at the Sang family and spending time with her children at the same time.
Zhang Xiaoqin met Xia Yaoyao's sincere eyes, looked away, walked in and started to change her shoes.
"There's been a lot going on at the hospital lately. I was just thinking about the hospital."
Xia Yaoyao didn't doubt it. She turned and went into the kitchen to serve out the pork rib soup. The house was filled with fragrance.
"Okay, by the way, aunt, I heard from my uncle that he will be back tonight. Do you want to go to the train station to pick him up?"
Sanchi comes back from a business trip.
Zhang Xiaoqin went into the bathroom to wash her hands, looked up and paused, "No, the secretary will come to pick me up."
While eating, Zhang Xiaoqin watched Xia Yaoyao taking care of the two children as usual, and couldn't help but persuade her, "Yaoyao, don't spoil the two children too much, let them pick up the food by themselves."
"How old are you? Why do you still need others to help you pick up food? Just pick up what you want to eat yourself!"
The two brothers who were bullied didn't dare to ask Xia Yaoyao to help them pick up the dishes that were far away.
