Chapter 135 Two people who are more childish than children
"Captain Huo!" Zhang Erqiao stood at the door and saw Huo Jingchen and Xia Mi running over.
"Sister-in-law, Doctor Xia." After Zhang Erqiao saluted, his eyes instantly relaxed when he looked at Xia Mi and Xia Jing, "Give me everything."
Xia Mi gave half of the things to Zhang Erqiao.
"Can we ride on the boat? Is it raining on the sea?"
Huo Jingchen asked Zhang Erqiao.
"No, I have already bought the ticket, and the boat will leave in two hours."
Zhang Erqiao took out the ferry tickets from his pocket. Counting him, there were four tickets in total.
Huo Jingchen couldn't take his hand away at the moment, so he nodded, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. I heard from the battalion commander that my sister-in-law brought me something."
On the way here, Zhang Erqiao felt that the sea breeze was sweet, and thinking about the special products, it was sweet all the way.
"It's not you alone, it's you and Daqiang who share a share. I don't bring much."
Later, considering Shi Daqiang and Zhang Erqiao, Xia Mi and the others went back to buy some more. As a result, there were too many things to carry. Fortunately, the summer clothes were thin and did not take up space.
"That's enough. Sister-in-law, you are so kind. You still think of us when you go out."
Zhang Erqiao had an honest smile on his face and raised his hand to scratch the back of his head in embarrassment.
Xia Mi smiled and said politely, "You often come to help at home. It's all mutual."
"I can't tell if I'm leading soldiers or fish with a mouth." Huo Jingchen said sadly from the side.
It made Xia Jing unable to hold back her laughter, and even Xia Mi couldn't hold back her laughter.
Zhang Erqiao was embarrassed and did not dare to look at Huo Jingchen.
The train station is some distance from the pier, and it takes almost forty minutes to get there. Unfortunately, there is no bus going here, so we can only walk there.
Walking to the pier, Xia Mi was badly burned by the sun, her cheeks were crimson and her forehead was covered with fine sweat.
Zhang Erqiao went to the small shop and bought four popsicles, then divided them one by one.
"Thank you." Xia Mi took the popsicle. The moment he touched it, a cold chill spread from his fingertips to his heart, and his whole body felt much cooler.
Take a bite of the popsicle and it tastes sweet, like an old popsicle.
Sitting under the shed enjoying the cool air and eating popsicles, Xia Mi felt extremely comfortable. The heat that had entered his heart under the scorching sun just now was driven away at this moment.
Huo Jingchen handed the popsicle to Xia Mi, "You can eat it, I'm not hot."
He had taken off his coat and was wearing a short-sleeved shirt. His narrow eyes filled the eyes of the people next to him.
"It's not good to eat too many popsicles at one time. Just eat it." Xia Mi saw that the popsicles were almost melting and urged Huo Jingchen, "Eat it quickly, otherwise it will melt and it will be wasted."
People in this era cannot hear the word waste.
Huo Jingchen hesitated for a moment and quickly took off the packaging. He finished the popsicle in less than a minute.
"The boat has departed. Everyone going to Zhui Feng Island has boarded the boat."
The captain, wearing a straw hat, shouted and walked forward.
"Let's go." Xia Mi quickly ate the last two bites. She was so cold that she frowned and exhaled cold air.
Zhang Erqiao and Huo Jingchen took care of all the luggage, while Xia Jing and Xia Mi were relaxed behind them.
Because the weather was so hot, even Xia Mi, who was seasick, had to go to the deck to get some fresh air after boarding the ship.
It was so stuffy inside the cabin that the ceiling fan didn't work at all. The smell of sweat mixed with the smell of engine oil made Xia Mi want to vomit.
Huo Jingchen was worried and followed her out, holding her wrist tightly the whole time, fearing that she would be beaten down after two waves.
"You don't have to hold on so tightly, I'm holding on to the armrest."
Huo Jingchen then relaxed a little, "I'm afraid that you'll be homesick and the waves will come later, and you'll leave as soon as you say." "..."
Xia Mi looked at Huo Jingchen with squinted eyes. Thinking of the first time he saw him on the deck, his mouth was still so poisonous.
"I won't." Xia Mi's tone was helpless, but there was a smile in his eyes.
"What do you think about your uncle?"
Huo Jingchen asked Xia Mi this question while the boat was moving steadily and there was no one else here.
"What can I think about? It's probably because we don't have much fate. We are so far apart and there is no need to recognize each other. We have to run back and forth every year. It's too tiring. Let's just leave it like that. It's good not to disturb each other. ”
Xia Mi felt the waves being stirred up, and the sea water hit her face against the sea breeze.
"Really? From what I see, Sanchi is not someone who wants to give up."
"Who can tell for sure."
Xia Mi didn't have much emotion. When she saw Sanchi in person, she was no more excited than when she saw the letter.
Please...you...collect_6_9_书_吧 (六//九//书//吧)
Probably she is not the original owner, so she won't have that kind of blood relationship.
As far as she was concerned, if Sanqi had come looking for her from the beginning, he would most likely have recognized her, but she didn't even look for her and recognized Xia Yaoyao as her goddaughter, which made her feel very upset and panicked.
Huo Jingchen understood Xia Mi's attitude and curled her lips without answering.
"I went to your hometown this time. When will you go to the Imperial Capital? Didn't you say you wanted to visit before?"
Xia Mi opened his eyes, "Can you still ask for leave?"
"Not for a short period of time. You should be able to wait until the New Year. If you want to go, I'll say hello early." Huo Jingchen looked at her, and when she saw the light in her eyes, she knew she was interested.
Xia Mi nodded without hesitation, "I definitely want to go, so let's wait until the Chinese New Year."
"By the way, last time my second sister wrote to me, I haven't written to her yet. I'll write to her when I go back this time."
I didn’t know what to write about before, but now I can write about things in Suzhou, but it’s a pity that I can’t send pastries.
Shelf life is one thing. Lost items are common in logistics and transportation nowadays. It is not cost-effective to spend a lot of money to send fragile cakes like pastries.
Besides, the imperial capital is so big, so there should be a lot of pastries.
"You can have fun with her."
"Second Sister is such a nice person, what can't you do?" Xia Mi said, her eyes gradually looked like Zhuifeng Island.
After coming to Zhui Feng Island for so long, this was the first time she could see clearly that Zhui Feng Island was very big, much larger than the small islands she had just passed by. From her perspective, it was in the shape of an acute triangle.
"We'll be there soon, so fast."
Xia Mi felt that he had only been away from Zhui Feng Island for a few days, but in the blink of an eye, he was back.
Before I even got close to the dock, I saw someone waving to the boat.
"Guess who?" Huo Jingchen asked Xia Mi.
Xia Mi squinted and couldn't see clearly who the little jumping figure was, "Did you see it clearly?"
"Other than children being so excited, only Shi Daqiang can do it as an adult."
The corners of Xia Mi's lips rose, just thinking about it.
Just after he finished speaking, another person jumped up next to Shi Daqiang, and the two of them were waving.
"What about this?"
"The instructor's daughter can't talk enough." Huo Jingchen gave the answer instantly, "I just missed it. These two people on the island are more childish than children."
That makes sense. Xia Mi nodded and gave Huo Jingchen a thumbs up.
"As expected of someone who has been on the island for six years."
