Chapter 149 Return to the Imperial Capital?
"Pull you."
Xia Mi spat out two words, "With so many people watching, how could they possibly fight? You'd better keep your mouth shut and don't fan the flames."
Li Jiajia was not annoyed even though she was disliked.
"If you ask me, Gao Zhilei doesn't look like a teacher. He should just give up literature and focus on martial arts."
"Teacher Gao is twenty years old this year."
"That's perfect, there will be no chance if you miss it this year."
"Okay, when the two sides start arguing, you go and solve the problem. If the problem is solved, I believe Jiang Ling and the team leader will thank you."
There was a hint of smile in Xia Mi's tone when she spoke.
Li Jiajia was a bit stupid and really took this to heart, "See? I told you I had a good idea."
While the two were talking, Jiang Ling had already brought the person in front of Jiang Shengmei.
"Aunties, this is my boyfriend Gao Zhilei, he is a primary school teacher, he is 20 years old this year."
No one dared to answer, so Gao Zhilei greeted Xia Mi.
"Sister Xia Mi."
Some people's attention was focused on Xia Mi.
Xia Mi had no choice but to bite the bullet. She nodded and smiled, "Teacher Gao, what a coincidence..."
Jiang Shengmei forced a smile, "Guests are welcome, Xiao Gao, find a place to sit by yourself, Xiao Ling, come and sit over here."
All the seats were full, and Jiang Shengmei did this on purpose to embarrass Gao Zhilei.
Jiang Ling looked around and found that all the seats were full. She frowned and looked at her mother, "Mom, do you really have to do this?"
"What's wrong with me?" Jiang Shengmei pretended to be confused.
"I brought Zhilei back just to meet the other aunts. We won't have dinner because we still have to go to Qingcheng in the afternoon."
Jiang Weidong couldn't sit still when he heard that his daughter was going to Qingcheng.
Because he was so angry, Jiang Weidong squeezed the glass wine glass hard, put the glass heavily on the table, and the glass broke into several pieces.
"Jiang Ling, if you dare to leave this door today, don't say you are my daughter, Jiang Weidong."
The atmosphere became even more tense and everyone held their breath, fearing that something might go wrong.
Jiang Ling's back tensed up, and he turned around to look at Jiang Weidong, inwardly surprised by his father's words.
"Mom and Dad, marriage is free now, why can't I marry the person I like? Should you get married, or should I?"
Li Jiajia widened her eyes and held Xia Mi's hand tightly.
"Xia Mi, I'm so nervous. Are we really going to fight later?"
Xia Mi felt pain from being grabbed, and quickly pulled her hand away, "Why are you grabbing my hand so nervously?"
"Sit down and eat first. We'll talk about it in the evening." Jiang Weidong agreed.
"We're almost done with the meal. There's no need to sit down to eat. We came at the wrong time. As for the evening, it's my turn to be on duty tonight."
Jiang Ling was determined not to deal with housework with Jiang Weidong at night.
"I was so nervous. Uncle Jiang's look just now almost scared me to the point of falling under the table."
"Be less involved." Xia Mi's emotions fluctuated between two sides. Sometimes she was nervous, sometimes she was amused or speechless by Li Jiajia's remarks, switching back and forth.
Jiang Ling still took his people away.
After they left, Jiang Weidong and Jiang Shengmei both had gloomy faces, but no one tried to cause trouble and they all talked about other topics tacitly.
After dinner, Xia Mi helped wash the dishes and clean up.
Seeing that she had almost finished packing, Huo Jingchen took the initiative to greet her and asked, "Going back?"
Xia Mi nodded. She packed a lot of bones and some broth in her hands. It was impossible to pack the rice, so she could only let Black Panther eat some bones.
"Give it to me." Huo Jingchen took the thing naturally.
"Captain Jiang, are you okay?"
Jiang Ling left not long ago, and Jiang Weidong left the table to go to his room to rest. He hasn't shown up since.
"Maybe he got high blood pressure from being angry, but it shouldn't be a big problem. My sister-in-law brought him some medicine."
Huo Jingchen finished talking about Jiang Weidong's news, "By the way, there is news about the contracted sea area you asked about last time. Now the organization advocates collective land contracting, and we want to implement it as soon as possible. For land, it can be done individually, but I don't know about the sea area. If you have any ideas, you can go to the village to inquire. It would be best if there is a position to lead the group to do it."
"I can help you if you want."
"It's too troublesome. I'll wait a little longer." Xia Mi did not agree.
When she heard the word "collective", the flame of excitement in Xia Mi's heart was extinguished.
The era of the big pot has only been over for a short time, and she doesn't know what the effect of this sudden change will be. The risk is too great, so she still doesn't want to take the risk.
"That's fine. If there is any news, I will tell you as soon as possible."
Zhuifeng Island is in the marginal area, and the wind of reform will take a long time to reach here completely. Contracting the sea area is a complicated procedure and there is no rush.
Xia Mi didn't say anything, but nodded. She had two plans anyway.
The last time she made 40,000 yuan, she has expanded the sea area by 500 square meters. As long as the space is there, she can keep making money.
She also added 200 meters of beach to the deep sea, which cost her 3,000 yuan. Fortunately, she is no longer stuck in a certain spot, so she can walk with more peace of mind.
With the golden finger of space, it is much easier for her to make money than in reality.
The money came too quickly, and I felt like I was laundering money...
And she didn’t know whether this system could stay with her for the rest of her life, so she had to prepare for reality.
When Black Panther heard the conversation, he ran out of the yard early to greet them and kept circling around Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen.
After smelling the aroma of food, its tail almost shook like a propeller.
Huo Jingchen was responsible for feeding her, while Xia Mi went to pick vegetables from the yard. She would not go to Jiang Shengmei's house for dinner tonight, as she was worried that it would be like that day at noon.
"By the way, now that you've been promoted, do we have to move to a new house?"
The leader's house is bigger.
Huo Jingchen washed his hands and said, "Sure, do you want to change? There shouldn't be many houses left now, so most of them will be moved to my sister-in-law's place."
"Forget it, I'm used to living here, and moving would be troublesome."
Huo Jingchen thought so too, but he respected Xia Mi's choice. If she wanted to move, she could move; if she didn't want to move, she didn't have to move.
"Time flies. The Chinese New Year is only two months away. Will you take a holiday during the Chinese New Year?"
The sea breeze is too strong in winter.
A few days ago, Huo Jingying wrote to ask Xia Mi whether she would come to the capital during the New Year. She was a little tempted, but she didn't know whether Huo Jingchen had any vacation.
"Not sure, you want to go out?"
If he was still the battalion commander before, he would be able to give Xia Mi a positive answer, but things are different now.
"Well, I want to go to the imperial capital, but it's a bit far to go back and forth. If you don't have a short vacation, forget it. We can stay here and spend the New Year with my aunt and the others."
Thinking about the Chinese New Year, Xia Mi has already planned what vegetables to plant next so that she can have hotpot during the Chinese New Year.
Imperial capital...
Huo Jingchen lowered his eyes and said nothing. After a long while, he said, "It's still early. I'll go and have a look if I have a chance. If I go, I'll bring my aunt and her family with me. It'll be a busy road."
Xia Mi was squatting in the vegetable garden and didn't notice Huo Jingchen's expression.
Suddenly, a question came from the back, "Next year, are you considering having children?"
