"What about you?" Jiang Yule asked while packing his things.
“I should go straight to the hospital.”
"Are there dormitories?"
"No, but I'm planning to buy a house. You're a local, do you have any recommendations?" Tan Xiuming packed his things and sat down on the berth.
Jiang Yule thought about the location of the military hospital. "The hospital you are going to is newly built, so it may be a bit remote. The conditions nearby will definitely not be very good. The more prosperous places are a bit far away. How do you plan?"
"It's better not to go too far, in case something happens and it's really inconvenient."
"Doesn't the hospital provide staff dormitories? Since you are specially hired, there should be some," Jiang Yule asked after hesitating for a moment. In the original owner's memory, the hospital was located in the suburbs, and the surrounding area was somewhat desolate. Even if a hospital was built, it was unlikely that the surrounding area would develop so quickly.
"Not so used to it." Tan Xiuming touched his nose awkwardly. He grew up in a well-off family, so it was inevitable that he had some bad habits that others thought were pretentious. For example, if the dormitory... was similar to the single-family house in his hometown, Tan Xiuming could accept it, but if it was a tube-shaped building...
Tan Xiuming was a little overwhelmed... Every household shared a toilet, the smell of cooking fumes filled the corridor, the sound of quarrels seemed to be in the same room, and the closeness without a sense of boundaries made Tan Xiuming feel suffocated just thinking about it...
"How about this, you find a guest house to stay in first, and my friend will take me to see houses in the next few days. He is familiar with Beijing, and I will ask him then."
“Will it be too much trouble?”
"It's okay. You've helped me a lot. This is nothing."
"Thank you for your help." Tan Xiuming didn't continue to be polite and agreed readily. On the one hand, he was really unfamiliar with Beijing, and on the other hand...if they looked at houses together, wouldn't it be possible for him to stay with Jiang Yule for a few more days?
"You're welcome!" Jiang Yule waved his hand nonchalantly.
The sister-in-law at the side opened her eyes wide when she heard what the two said. She was extremely shocked. She had followed her husband to Beijing for so many years, so she naturally knew how expensive the houses in Beijing were. Her husband was the only one working in their family, and they had saved money for several years but still rented a house. Look at this young man who had already bought a house, as easily as buying a cabbage. How could this be ordinary people?
As we were talking, the train announcement was made: We are about to arrive at Beijing Railway Station
The three adults and one child got off the car carrying their luggage. Tan Xiuming looked at the suitcase in Jiang Yule's hand and his red hands from the cold, and simply took it over, "Let me take it, you put your hands in your pockets."
"It's okay, I can do it myself." Jiang Yule tried to dodge but failed. Tan Xiuming took the suitcase and walked in front. Looking at his stubborn back, Jiang Yule was a little helpless. He tightened his scarf and jogged a few steps to catch up.
Seeing this, the sister-in-law and Liangliang who were following behind also quickened their pace. The train station in Beijing was as crowded as ever, but Jiang Yule's mood was very different at this moment. The cold air he breathed was very familiar, and even the bustling crowd around him seemed much more friendly.
After taking a deep breath, Jiang Yule and Tan Xiuming came out together. As soon as they walked out of the train station gate, they saw an extremely cool car, and Zhou Jialin standing next to the car in a black woolen coat.
Jiang Yule paused, looking at the envious and jealous eyes of the people around him, Jiang Yule didn't have the courage to go over...
Noticing that the people around him hadn't caught up, Tan Xiuming turned around subconsciously and saw Jiang Yule standing there, looking in one direction with a look of disdain. Following her line of sight, he saw the man standing next to the extremely conspicuous car.
Tan Xiuming's expression darkened. Friends? There are so many outstanding people around her...
"know?"
"Hmm..." Jiang Yule replied helplessly and walked towards him. Zhou Jialin spotted the main character at a glance, as Jiang Yule was also conspicuous in the crowd. He patted the car behind him and greeted him with his hands spread out. "How is it, isn't this a good show to pick someone up?"
"Uncle Zhou, Aunt An, and Brother Jiashu are all so low-key and introverted. How on earth do you survive at home..." Jiang Yule complained
Jiang Yule's relaxed and joking behavior made Tan Xiuming look at him sideways. Jiang Yule rarely insulted others like this.
At this time, Zhou Jialin also saw Tan Xiuming beside Jiang Yule, especially when he saw the familiar small suitcase in Tan Xiuming's hand. He did not respond to Jiang Yule's words, but raised his eyebrows and teased, "Hey, it's been a few months since we last met. Did you kick Mu Chuan?"
"What are you talking about? Let me introduce you, this is Zhou Jiashu. His mother and my mother are good friends who grew up together."
"This is Tan Xiuming, my former colleague in the hospital. He works in the military hospital. Are you familiar with that place? He also wants to buy a house."
Zhou Jialin immediately understood what Jiang Yule meant, and said smugly, "There is no place in Tokyo that I don't know. Let's go, get in the car, it's very cold."
Zhou Jialin pulled Jiang Yule's sleeve and got on the passenger seat, then got in the car, started the car and left.
"Mom, I want to ride in a car, too," Liangliang said, pointing in the direction where Jiang Yule and the others left.
"Well, wait for Dad to come back and take you to ride in a big car," the sister-in-law replied perfunctorily, and took the child to take the bus. She had a deeper understanding of the family background of that group of people. After all, Beijing is the political center, and there are countless big shots. To have such a car is even more proof that it is extraordinary. Originally, I thought that Comrade Jiang worked in the Beijing Hospital, and if he really needed it, he could ask for favors. But now, it seems that he dare not have any bad thoughts.
On the other side, Zhou Jialin drove onto the road and glanced at Tan Xiuming who was sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
"Comrade Tan works in the military hospital?"
