Ten days later, Xia Xiaobei recovered and was discharged from the hospital. Although it would take some time for the broken ribs to heal, there was no need to continue staying in the hospital.
As long as she doesn't exercise strenuously and takes care of herself slowly, it will be fine. However, her continued study will have to be postponed for a while.
Of course, Xiao Han was obligated to send Xia Xiaobei and I back to Jiangzhou City. Zhou Hui insisted on following us back to Jiangzhou City no matter what. Even if Xia Xiaobei got angry at him, he would smile and beg for mercy. In the end, his parents ran away.
He went to Longcheng to look for him and took him back by force.
Before leaving, Zhou Hui told Xia Xiaobei to wait for him in Jiangzhou City and that he would definitely go to Xia Xiaobei when his leg injury healed.
Zhou Hui was originally a rich second generation, and he only followed Professor Zhang because he liked Xu Wenying. It happened that his parents also wanted Zhou Hui, who had been spoiled since childhood, to have more experience, so they spent some money to send him to the archaeological team through the back door.
An archaeological team had an accident in Jiming Village and many students died. Although the organization suppressed the incident, Zhou Hui's parents still heard about it. They also heard that he was injured. They were so anxious that the couple drove their Hao.
The car drove to Longcheng to pick up my son and take him home.
After bidding farewell to Zhou Hui, Xiao Han, Xia Xiaobei and I took the train back to Jiangzhou City that night and arrived early the next morning.
Maybe it was because we arrived at a densely populated place and didn't encounter any weird incidents along the way.
Returning to Jiangzhou City, smelling the familiar aroma of hot dry noodles and braised crayfish, and breathing in the fresh air with a hint of river moisture, I felt a lot more at ease.
Xiao Han sent Xia Xiaobei and I back to the small apartment I rented, decorated it, and went out. Xia Xiaobei and I slept soundly for the first time in a long time until about five o'clock in the afternoon.
time to wake up one after another.
Standing at the window of the small apartment, looking at the Yangtze River opposite across Yanjiang Street, the river beach began to gradually become lively, and the colorful neon lights lit up early one after another. The golden afterglow of the sunset spread on the river, illuminating the ships passing by.
All are plated with a layer of gold.
The benches outside the crayfish restaurant on Yanjiang Street were filled with diners waiting for tables with their number plates. The children were after school, and they didn’t forget to take a few more glances when they walked past the crayfish restaurant in groups wearing little yellow hats.
, sniffing hard, sucking in the salty and spicy smell of crayfish.
The beautiful Jiangcheng is full of prosperity and the most beautiful fireworks in the world.
Xia Xiaobei stood behind me at some point, pointed to the crayfish restaurant opposite and asked me: "Hu Ling, what kind of restaurant is that? Why are there so many people? I seem to smell a fragrance that I have never smelled before.
"
"That's a major specialty of our Jiangbei region. Braised crayfish in oil is delicious. Quickly pack it up and I'll take you to try it!" I said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll change my clothes right now!" Upon hearing this, Xia Xiaobei quickly ran into the bathroom to wash up.
"Slow down, your injuries haven't healed yet, don't stretch yourself!" I shouted, looking at her cheerful back.
"I know!" Xia Xiaobei replied, but her movements did not slow down, and soon the sound of her teeth brushing came from the bathroom.
After packing up, we went straight out. As soon as we opened the door of the small apartment, Xiao Han was standing outside the door, holding a cowhide bag in one hand and raising the other hand as if to knock on the door.
Xiao Han raised his eyebrows when he saw us and asked, "Are you getting ready to go out?"
"Master Xiao Tian, Hu Ling said he wants to take me to eat crayfish, you should go too!" Xia Xiaobei said cheerfully.
"Well, let's go together later. I have some things to give to Hu Ling first." Xiao Han raised the brown paper bag in his hand and said.
I moved my body, and Xiao Han walked in directly and closed the door smoothly.
Xiao Han walked to the sofa and sat down, put the cowhide bag in his hand on the coffee table and said: "Hu Ling, the reward I promised you before departure has been taken care of."
reward?
I was a little dazed and didn't quite understand it for a while.
Xiao Han said: "I promised you to accompany me to Dragon City and give you this small apartment as a reward."
"Huh? What you said is true, but I didn't do anything!" I said a little embarrassed.
"No, you did a good job. In the ancient tomb, if it weren't for you, Professor Zhang and the others might not be able to come back." Xiao Han smiled, "Look, there are real estate certificates and land use certificates inside.
This house is your property, you can sell it or keep it, it's up to you, but I suggest you live here, Jiangzhou City is very popular, and my spell can hide your fate very well.
, maybe we can avoid some unnecessary disasters."
I nodded, "Xia Xiaobei is here now. She also wants to study in college in Jiangzhou. This apartment is suitable for the two of us. Master Xiao, thank you!"
The location of this apartment is very good, it is in the city center, but it is not too noisy because it is along the river. Of course, I just thought about this in my heart, and there was no need to say it out to let Xiao Han know.
"This is what I promised you, and it's the reward you deserve. If there are no other questions, let's go out to eat. Speaking of crayfish, I feel a little hungry too." Xiao Han stood up and the three of them went out.
Go to the crayfish restaurant across the street.
What I didn't expect was that Xiao Han was actually a super member of the Crayfish House and enjoyed the privilege of not having to wait in line. The waiter led the three of us to a small private room and quickly brought out a large bowl of garlic chowder.
Lobster, a large pot of braised shrimp with full flavor and two spicy shrimp balls, a large portion of cold noodles and a portion of lettuce.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Han, a cold-looking heavenly master, actually loved this crayfish. He was very particular about ordering the dishes and ordered all the most delicious dishes in this restaurant.
Jiangzhou people are bold and generous. They eat red and hot crayfish in pots. Sitting in the hall while eating and listening to other customers chatting enthusiastically and loudly is considered enjoyable. But as soon as the sound rang, Xiao Han accompanied us two
The little girl is sitting in the lobby eating crayfish. No matter how you think about it, the scene feels inconsistent and unreal.
Xia Xiaobei ate crayfish for the first time, and naturally he loved it very much. His lips were so spicy that they were as thick as sausages and he couldn't bear to stop.
While eating happily, Xiao Han suddenly glanced at Xia Xiaobei and asked her: "Xiaobei, since you have chosen to continue studying, have you decided what major you want to major in?"
Xia Xiaobei wiped his mouth and said: "The university I was admitted to before is not in Jiangzhou. I don't want to go. I plan to find a high school in Jiangzhou and study for another year, and apply for a university in Jiangzhou next year."
Xiao Han nodded, glanced at Xia Xiaobei, and hesitated to speak.
"Master Xiao Tian, do you have any better method?" I asked, looking at Xiao Han's face.
Xiao Han glanced at Xia Xiaobei, nodded and said: "There is a university right now, and it is recruiting special students. Xiaobei should be fine, and there is no need to repeat the studies. I just don't know if Xiaobei is willing to go."
