Chapter 7 I Kicked You
"Comrade, you can't go any further. This shell is very sharp. You have such delicate skin and tender flesh that it will scratch you if you are not careful."
Xia Mi stopped moving forward and recalled the online news in her previous life. Many people lacked common sense about going to the sea and were scratched by shellfish. They either had to get tetanus shots or get several stitches.
Seeing that she was so interested, Jiang Shengmei asked about Xia Mi's hometown.
"Where are you from?"
"From Suzhou." I am from Suzhou in both my past and present life.
Jiang Shengmei talked about Suzhou, "Suzhou is a great place, with lots of good quality fabrics. No wonder I've never seen the fabric you're wearing, it must be expensive, right?"
Speaking of this, the original owner was extremely fond of beauty.
I didn't take anything valuable from the Xia family, only clothes.
"My mother made it by tearing cloth, so I don't know much about it." Xia Mi looked at the beach and asked, "Can people around here get some seafood to eat?"
The sea breeze blew and ruffled Xia Mi's hair. She smoothed the hair on her forehead.
The gentle voice blows into people's ears with the wind, making people feel soft in their hearts.
"Whatever is fought over in the sea is public property. If people pick up what is blown up by the tide and eat it, no one will say anything. But everything should be done in moderation."
Jiang Shengmei lowered her head and kicked the dried shells in disgust.
"Let's go back quickly. The wind is strong at the beach. If you stay there for too long, you'll get a headache at night."
Xia Mi didn't wear a headscarf, and Jiang Shengmei was worried that her small body wouldn't be able to withstand the headaches caused by the sea breeze. - "Captain Huo, you are standing at my door, are you planning to make a stone lion for my house?"
When she was almost there, Jiang Shengmei saw Huo Jingchen and her laughter suddenly became bright and loud.
Xia Mi looked over and saw the man standing straight. The uniform he was wearing was tailor-made for him, every inch was just right, showing off his superior figure perfectly. He stood there like a model.
When Huo Jingchen heard the voice, he looked sideways with a noble expression.
"Sister-in-law, we are still short of one stone lion. You kidnapped the other one. Can't I come and ask for it back?"
This confused Jiang Shengmei. She looked at Xia Mi and said, "Comrade Xia, didn't you say that you are not Captain Huo's fiancée?"
"I'm definitely not. Captain Huo's fiancée lives in the capital and is a college student. Apart from being pretty, I have nothing to do with his fiancée in the other two aspects."
The corners of Huo Jingchen's lips curled up slightly.
"Are you jealous before you even marry me?" Huo Jingchen smiled and explained quickly.
"I don't have a fiancée. I just mentioned a little bit about my neighbor's sister to someone else. I don't know how she got around to becoming my fiancée. If I really had a fiancée, the political commissar wouldn't have dared to accept my marriage application."
Xia Mi was stunned, her almond-shaped eyes flashed with surprise, "You really submitted it? But I haven't agreed to marry you yet."
"Then who agreed to it yesterday? Was it Comrade Xiami?"
Xia Mi took a deep breath and said, "You are hiding something from me and you are not sincere. I dare not become a revolutionary partner with someone like you."
Jiang Shengmei, who was standing next to her, had her mouth almost stretched to her ears.
It turned out that the young couple was having a quarrel. She wondered why Xia Mi was not attracted to Captain Huo, and she even seemed a little angry when she mentioned him.
It turns out that they have reached the stage of getting married.
"I'm a person who has bravely helped others at the train station and saved a suicidal girl on a boat. What kind of person do you think I am?"
Xia Mi finally understood that she couldn't argue with Huo Jingchen.
"Sister Shengmei, I'm going to go back and pack my things first. Thank you for taking me to see the sea today."
Xia Mi smiled politely at Jiang Shengmei, who was smiling like her aunt next to her, and said goodbye and prepared to leave.
Huo Jingchen raised his eyebrows and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving first."
On the way back to the guesthouse, Huo Jingchen followed Xia Mi at a leisurely pace, and the two kept a distance of about two meters.
Finally, Xia Mi got annoyed by the person following her.
"Captain Huo, I am very grateful that you saved me twice. I will definitely thank you if I have the chance."
"I used to be a member of the Xia family, and my household registration is still in the Xia family. The Xia family is national capital. I don't want you to encounter any problems in your future career because of a momentary impulse."
Huo Jingchen paused, looked at her, and waited quietly for someone to finish speaking.
The girl bathed in the sunshine, her skin became whiter and her whole body was as bright as a pearl.
"That's it?" He sneered, "I thought you'd been with the Xia family for too long, and your brain would be as stupid as theirs, unable to tell good from bad."
Xia Mi curled her lips, sighed helplessly, and said, "It doesn't matter how you interpret it. Anyway, I made my words very clear."
"I have decided to marry you. These problems are not a problem for me. I just need to fulfill some additional conditions on top of marrying you."
Huo Jingchen's arrogant attitude doesn't seem to come from his family, but rather seems to be innate.
Xia Mi looked at the man. If someone ugly said the same thing, she would definitely call him an ordinary man.
Faced with other people's firm choices, it was hard for her not to be moved.
In her previous life, she had never been in love and she was just an ordinary person in the world.
The trajectory of life is to study hard, work hard to get into college, work hard to get into a good hospital, and work hard to pass the exam from resident to attending physician.
I finally made it through and parachuted through.
Huo Jingchen, although his words were a bit sharp, he had saved her at least twice. When she was helpless and scared, he was the one who pulled her out of fear.
Xia Mi's heart relaxed, her cheeks slightly flushed with shyness, "If you don't do what you said, I will kick you away."
Huo Jingchen smiled, and in the sunlight, his eyes sparkled with pride.
Then, the two returned to the guesthouse, and Xia Mi handed the necessary documents to Huo Jingchen.
Her slender, white and tender fingers, like green onions, tightly grasped the certificate, with mixed emotions.
"If you marry me, you'll be the one taking advantage. You look like a little white rabbit. What if someone kidnaps you on the way back to the city? I'm saving you."
After only knowing each other for two days, Xia Mi realized that Huo Jingchen could turn black into white.
Finally, she watched them leave and accepted the reality that she was about to get married.
In just one night, the news that Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen were going to get married spread like wildfire, and the entire family compound knew that Captain Huo was going to get married.
Li Weimin's home.
"Wei Min, today I heard from the political commissar's wife that Huo Jingchen is getting married. Is this true?"
The Li family's dining table was a black lacquered octagonal table. Three people sat around it, and there were two dishes and a soup on the table.
"It's fake. Captain Huo was just joking. Xia Mi was Yiming's fiancée before. I don't know what means she used to seduce Captain Huo."
"Eating can't stop you from talking? Captain Huo didn't say anything, so why are you giving orders?"
Li Weimin reminded him dissatisfiedly.
Li Jiajia slammed the chopsticks on the bowl with a snap, making quite a noise.
"Am I wrong? Xia Mi is just unwanted. Maybe she was driven away by the Xia family because she did a lot of bad things. Otherwise, after raising her for 19 years, she would have feelings for him even if she was a dog. The Xia family..."
Snap——
A crisp slapping sound was heard, and Li Weimin was so angry that his face turned black, to the point where ink seemed to drip out.
Li Jiajia was stunned for a moment, tears welled up in her eyes, and she felt very aggrieved.
She began to choke and cry.
"Dad, you hit me for an outsider. What did I say wrong? She secretly enjoyed the blessings that belonged to others. Now that the Xia family has driven her away, she doesn't have to bear the reputation of a capitalist lady. She married Huo Jingchen as soon as she arrived. How come she gets all the good things!"
Li Jiajia threw the dishes and chopsticks to the ground as if to vent her anger.
The porcelain bowl immediately broke into pieces, pushing the atmosphere to a climax.
Li Weimin pointed at Li Jiajia with anger in his eyes and said, "Li Jiajia, you are an educated person, how can you say shameless and humiliating words?"
Outside the door, Jiang Shengmei, who came to deliver dumplings, was stunned at the door.
She listened to everything that was said just now.
