Chapter 138 Children’s Gifts-
Huo Jingchen returned to the army. The bench was still warm when a soldier knocked on the door.
"Report, Captain Huo, Commander Jiang is here to see you."
"Okay, got it." Huo Jingchen closed the file he had just opened, hesitated for a few seconds and then stood up.
Jiang Weidong was waiting for Huo Jingchen in the office.
Huo Jingchen knocked on the door and shouted a report, and entered the office after getting permission.
Jiang Weidong motioned for him to sit down first, "How about going to Suzhou this time?"
"Not bad." Huo Jingchen could probably guess what Jiang Weidong was going to say. He was sitting upright with his hands on his knees.
"You should know what I want to say when I come to you. I mentioned it to you before you left last time."
Huo Jingchen did not pretend to be stupid, "I know."
"How is it? I can finally return to the imperial capital. This news was sent to your father a long time ago. Have your family written a letter?"
“Captain, I don’t want to leave Zhuifeng Island for the time being.”
Jiang Weidong's expression changed and his eyes were confused, "What?"
"Why did you suddenly change your mind? Did you have a disagreement with Minister Huo again?" Jiang Weidong was stunned. What did he mean by not wanting to leave?
Huo Jingchen didn't want to leave, but he still wanted to leave.
Seeing that the life of Zhuifeng Island was getting better day by day, he got the news that a new supply and marketing cooperative would be coming to the island soon.
The days are no longer as turbulent as before, but what do Huo Jingchen think?
"I won't leave for now, I want to stay for a while."
After a night of thinking, Huo Jingchen silently made a decision.
He wanted to see Fu Ming go to college, and he also wanted to wait. Since Xia Mi had an idea, he, as her husband, should help her instead of letting her accommodate him.
"What do you think?"
Jiang Weidong didn't understand. He scratched his head and couldn't figure out why he suddenly wanted to stay again.
"I've been here for a long time, and I have feelings." Huo Jingchen said, and when he raised his eyes again, he met Jiang Weidong's unbelieving eyes.
Jiang Weidong took a deep breath and closed his eyes, his expression seemed to say, you are bluffing!
"Seriously, do your parents know about this?"
"Do you know it's important?" Huo Jingchen's head suddenly hurt as she thought about her parents. Fortunately, there was still an eldest brother and a second sister who were filial to the two elders.
Jiang Weidong was so angry that he couldn't speak, "..."
"Zhuifeng Island is safe now, and everyone's life is getting better. If you stay here, you are burying yourself."
Jiang Weidong tried to wake up Huo Jingchen.
When he finished speaking, he realized that he knew Huo Jingchen's temperament. As long as he made up his mind, even ten cows could not pull him back.
Jiang Weidong changed direction and asked, "How long do you plan to stay?"
"I don't know, three years at most, two years at the least."
"What do you think will happen in two or three years?"
"Stay for another two or three years." Huo Jingchen repeated Jiang Weidong's words obediently.
This almost made Jiang Weidong angry to death.
He covered his chest and quickly calmed himself down, "Have you discussed this matter with Xia Mi? She is such a beautiful and graceful girl. She has been following you on Zhuifeng Island to enjoy the wind and sun. You have never considered her. Feelings?”
Huo Jingchen: "I have considered it. She respects my idea."
"..." Jiang Weidong's eyes were full of resentment, and he felt in his heart that these two people were not the same family.
"After the appointment letter is issued, you have to leave." Jiang Weidong ignored it and just said something. "I have already sent a telegram to my elder brother and he will make arrangements."
Jiang Weidong was silent again. What on earth is this big family going to do? Could it be that Huo Jingting didn't want Huo Jingchen to go back?
Huo Jingchen said, "Lao Jiang, don't worry, I will guard this place for you after you leave."
Jiang Weidong frowned, "You brat, you act like I'm going to die. I'm going to Qingcheng this time, which is not far from you."
Huo Jingchen nodded. From this tone, it seemed that Jiang Weidong had accepted it.
Then he made an excuse and left.
Jiang Weidong looked at Huo Jingchen's tall back and hated the iron. How could a good hand of cards be turned into a pulp?

Xia Mi returned to school and walked to the podium. In addition to chalk and chalk erasers, there were also a lot of garlands and bracelets made of dog tail straw.
When the children below saw her coming back, they all became excited.
The children happily pointed to the gifts they gave, focusing on where they picked the flowers and how they were braided.
Xia Mi looked at the various wreaths and grass wreaths, the corners of her lips raised, and she smiled.
"Teacher, thank you for your gifts. At the same time, the teacher also brought you a gift this time, but there are conditions for receiving the gift!"
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
Xia Mi took out a piece of pastry and placed it on the podium. The children below saw the packaging of the pastry and all stared at it.
"If you eat my food, you must study hard. I will give everyone a piece. Anyone who eats my food must pass the final exam. If you are sure of yourself, you can pass all subjects, or one of them." Full marks, you can eat two pieces.”
"If you don't do it, you won't get the pastries next time!"
The children were very excited when they heard it, and they were all full of energy.
They all rushed to promise Xia Mi how much they would get in the exam. Xia Mi smiled and said there was no rush. She opened the book and started to register one by one. She called one person to write the goals and registered everyone's goals.
When encountering someone who set a very high goal for eating cakes, Xia Mi didn't deny it, he just emphasized that if he couldn't finish it, he wouldn't be able to eat it next time.
A few people gave up on the difficulty and settled on one that was easiest for them to approach.
There were only eighteen children in the class, and all twenty-five pastries were divided.
On Zhui Feng Island, you may not be able to eat pastries even once during the Chinese New Year. The children held the pastries like treasures and refused to eat them. Some of them wanted to take home and share with their families.
Seeing their greedy and reluctant looks, Xia Mi had no choice but to relax and said, "Eat it. If you perform well on a daily basis, the teacher can reward you as appropriate."
The effect was minimal, and there was still not much to eat.
Xia Mi was completely helpless.
After class, the children ran outside. Xia Mi walked out holding his textbooks and met Zhang Zijie coming down from the second floor.
He carefully held a bag of things in his arms.
Seeing Xia Mi, his bright black eyes brightened up and became radiant.
"Teacher Xia!"
Zhang Zijie carefully protected the eggs in his arms, "Teacher Xia, these are the eggs my grandma asked me to buy for you. She is much better now. Thank you for the medicine."
Looking at the eggs in the bag, I guessed there were about ten in total.
Xia Mi didn't ask for it, "I accept your offer. You take the things back. Your grandma also needs nutrition now. Take these eggs back and give them to her."
"No, grandma said I have to give it to you."
Zhang Zijie emphasized again, "If you don't want it, my grandma will scold me if I take it back."
Xia Mi smiled, but still refused, "If you really want to thank me, just take it back."
"Your grandma's health has finally improved. If her nutrition cannot keep up, wouldn't all my efforts be in vain?"
When Zhang Zijie heard this, it seemed to make sense!
What Xia Mi said made him hesitate.
