Chapter 59: Pu Xinnan Appears
In her opinion, it is natural for highly educated people like Jiang Jie and Shen Zhihui to have high aspirations.
Xia Mi faced the sea breeze and walked forward with firm steps, without any reluctance.
Shen Zhihui has been the center of attention since he was born. Even if he said something wrong and was labeled a yp, he was still looked at differently in the production team because of his high education and knowledge.
He, Jiang Jie and several other comrades set up a small cram school in the production team to help students who could not afford the textbook fees and teach the children to learn to read.
"Comrade Zhao, is this Comrade Xia the new teacher you mentioned last time?"
Jiang Jie asked Zhao Xiaoying.
Zhao Xiaoying nodded. "It's her. Her husband is Captain Huo of the garrison. She is here to accompany the army. Don't be fooled by her quiet personality. She actually knows a lot and is smart."
"No wonder you came all the way from Suzhou." Jiang Jie suddenly understood.
"You guys chat, I'll take a walk around." Shen Zhihui understood that the purpose of coming here today was to keep people company.
Now that they had reached their destination, he didn't want to be a light bulb anymore and watch the two of them making small talk and talking about extremely boring topics.
Shen Zhihui felt that it was better to be alone quietly than to be with them.
He climbed up to a higher rock and sat there alone, listening to the sound of waves hitting the rocks, the sound of children playing, and the endless coastline in the distance.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Zhihui's eyes were fixed on a petite figure.
Without anyone to disturb her, Xia Mi was happy to go fishing alone. When she got tired of catching clams, she would go catch other snails or the octopuses and crabs hiding in the cracks of the rocks.
As usual, if the number of barrels exceeds half, she will recycle them.
The notification sound of dozens of points arriving was like the sound of nature. Xia Mi's red lips curled up slightly, and she was in a happy mood.
Shen Zhihui, who was far away, noticed something was wrong. Xia Mi was very skilled in catching crabs, and almost nothing could escape from her hands.
Why can’t a small bucket be filled up?
He left the reef with doubts, his footprints were left on the beach, and he stopped in front of Xia Mi.
"Is your bucket broken?"
Suddenly, a voice came from above her head. Xia Mi raised her head and threw the crab into the bucket.
"Why do you ask?"
Fortunately, when Shen Zhihui came over, half of the things in the bucket were empty. When Xia Mi was about to recycle them, someone arrived.
"I saw you caught quite a lot just now. Logically, your bucket should have been full a long time ago. Why is there still so little?"
Shen Zhihui's eyes were still filled with disdain. Even though he was in a low point, his noble character remained.
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Xia Mi glanced at him quickly, then lowered her eyes and looked at the beach. Her eyelashes were long and black. The sunlight shone down from the top of her head, and her eyelashes cast shadows on her cheeks.
There was a sense of alienation about the quiet and elegant person, and the words "stay away from me" were almost written on his face.
“…”
Shen Zhihui was rarely embarrassed. He explained awkwardly, "I didn't finish the introduction just now. Although my father is from Haicheng, I went to Tsinghua University, and my family currently lives in the capital."
"Who asked you?" Xia Mi was speechless.
She couldn't help but complain in her heart that Pu Xinnan really didn't care about age.
Worried that this person would continue to pester her, Xia Mi quickly added, "I'm not interested in students from Tsinghua University. Also, I'm married, so you'd better keep your distance from me."
Although Xia Mi didn't understand why a college graduate from Tsinghua University would appear here, at this moment she just wanted to stay away from this ordinary man.
"You..." Shen Zhihui was left speechless by Xia Mi's words.
Xia Mi rolled her eyes, carried the bucket and walked away from the strange man. As she left, she realized that this man had been staring at her.
It seemed that she had to find a more secluded location.
Shen Zhihui watched Xia Mi go away, feeling annoyed. Was he just being disliked?
Xia Mi moved to another place, near the reef, where there were many children cracking oysters and picking other seafood.
The front is blocked by fishing nets, and the other side is full of the production team's things. Logically, Xia Mi cannot go through.
She took out a colander, squatted down and dug out the sea hares mixed with sand hidden under the fishing net. She shook the colander and the sand flowed out, leaving only half a spoonful of the original full spoonful.
"Teacher Xia, Teacher Xia."
When Xia Mi was digging very hard, a child ran over and called out to her.
"Teacher Xia, Zhang Zijie's foot was cut and he's bleeding a lot!"
The little boy spoke incoherently and stuttered to form a complete sentence.
Zhang Zijie, why is it him again? Xia Mi quickly put down the things in her hand, "Where is he?"
"That uncle took him to the hospital." The boy pointed at Shen Zhihui who was running away, "Teacher, do you want to go over and take a look?"
Xia Mi asked him, "Do you know where Teacher Zhao is?"
It takes at least an hour to get to the hospital from here.
"have no idea."
Xia Mi thought so too. They were more familiar with Zhao Xiaoying. If something happened, they would definitely look for her first. If they didn’t find her, it must be because they couldn’t find her.
"I'll go over and take a look now. If you run into Teacher Zhao nearby, tell her about this."
Xia Mi spoke in a hurried tone, carrying the bucket and rushing to the shore.
Shen Zhihui walked very fast, so Xia Mi could only collect the things while walking, jogging all the way, and finally catching up with Shen Zhihui on a bike.
Xia Mi stopped the car and went to check Zhang Zijie's wound first. There was a shocking bloody wound on the sole of his foot, and blood was dripping down.
Zhang Zijie's face turned pale, and he felt a little embarrassed when he saw Xia Mi.
"Teacher Xia..."
"You ride your bike, I'll hold the child." Xia Mi gave up her bike.
Shen Zhihui did not hesitate and immediately handed Zhang Zijie to Xia Mi. He made sure she was seated firmly in the back seat before setting off.
On the way, Zhang Zijie mustered up the courage to ask Xia Mi, "Teacher Xia, can you please not tell my grandma about this?"
The usually naughty monkey now spoke cautiously and looked at Xia Mi with pleading eyes.
"It's not a question of whether I tell her or not, but your grandmother will definitely see it."
Zhang Zijie shook his head, "No, my grandma is blind."
Xia Mi frowned slightly, and the emotion in her eyes changed from panic to heartache. She remembered that Zhao Xiaoying had seen Zhang Zijie's life experience.
His parents went to the city and there has been no news of them since, leaving him and his grandmother to depend on each other.
Zhang Zijie was the only one in the school who did not collect textbook fees, so Principal Wang paid for them.
"I don't have to tell your grandma, but you have to promise me one thing. Otherwise, I will go to your house after I go to the hospital and say that you hurt your foot because you were naughty, and I will ask your grandma for medical expenses."
Zhang Zijie was so nervous that he forgot the pain and quickly replied, "I'll agree to whatever you say!"
"From now on, study hard and attend school seriously, and don't let Principal Wang down."
This child is quite filial to his grandmother, so how could he ignore the efforts made by Principal Wang for him?
Zhang Zijie hesitated for a moment with his pair of dark eyes, then nodded and agreed, "Okay."
When they arrived at the hospital, Shen Zhihui carried the child into the hall. Xia Mi quickly locked the car and followed closely behind him.
When Xia Mi went in, Zhang Zijie had already been sent to clean the wound.
As she walked to the door, she heard Zhang Zijie's heart-wrenching screams, mixed with the voice of the nurse asking Shen Zhihui to hold him down.
Xia Mi entered the room and saw Zhang Zijie's face covered in tears as he struggled to leave.
After the wound was cleaned, a deep wound was left on the sole of the foot.
"This child is too fussy and uncooperative. I'll go up and find another doctor."
