"Xiang'er, guess who I am?"
Who?
Yun Jingqi's expression changed when she saw who it was.
Before Mi Xaing 'er could say anything, Ni Dahai spoke first. "Hey, little poison girl, stay away from us. Don't poison us."
Tian Xiner retorted, "If I want to poison you, I'll poison you first. You're a big loach!"
After saying that, she released her hands and took half a step back. She looked at Mi Xaing 'er with a smile. "Xiang'er, why are you here?"
Why are you here?
Mi Xaing 'er also wanted to ask the same question.
Ni Dahai was not a big deal, but Little Tian Xin was also in the provincial capital. This was a little unexpected.
The world was big, but it was also small. The few of them bumped into each other unexpectedly.
There was nothing strange about this.
In that era, the so-called business district was only a little bigger than a fart. There were only a few "big shopping malls". It was difficult to not bump into each other when shopping.
Tian Xiner was still dressed in a Miao costume. She wore a navy blue dress with a ring of heavy silver jewelry around her exposed collar. It made her fair skin look even more beautiful.
Mi Xaing 'er immediately understood. "Xin'er, Brother Tong is back in the city."
Yun Jingqi heard this question and felt as if her heart was pounding. She pricked up her ears and eagerly wanted to know the answer.
Tian Xiner nodded with a smile. She could not hide the excitement on her face. "Yes, my brother is back in the city. Of course, I followed him here."
Yun Jingqi could not help but ask, "Where is Tong Che assigned to work?"
Tian Xiner felt that there was no need to hide it. She even felt that she should show off. "My brother is assigned to the University of Technology."
Yun Jingqi was curious. "He's back as a professor?"
"He's not a professor." Tian Xiner blinked her big eyes. "He's still in the library."
She raised her head proudly. "But he's not cleaning anymore. He's a librarian."
A librarian?
The Tian Xiner felt very happy.
Yun Jingqi, on the other hand, lowered her eyes as her heart ached.
Tian Xiner tugged at Mi Xaing 'er. "What about you? Why are you here? Have you moved into the city too?"
This time, it was Ni Dahai's turn to listen attentively, eager for an answer.
Mi Xaing 'er smiled. "You can say that I've entered the city. However, I haven't decided who I'm going to follow in the army yet. I'll be staying in the military zone for the time being. The rest is still unknown."
Yun Jingqi interrupted again, "Miss Tian, where are you staying now?"
"Ah, it's not far from here. My brother's school allocated a small house."
Yun Jingqi asked again, "Then can we go and take a look?"
Tian Xiner had the same idea. She was a hospitable person, and she didn't know anyone when she first arrived in the city. Now that she suddenly saw Mi Xaing 'er, of course, she wanted to show her around.
Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the pants on the counter. "Have you finished shopping? I'll wait until you're done."
Ni Dahai was a little unhappy. "Hey, Little Poison Girl, what's the meaning of this? I saw Xiao Mi first. I wanted to say a few words to her, but you just walked away."
Tian Xiner waved her hand indifferently. "Then let's all go to my house. I'll treat you to a cup of tea. Let's sit down and talk."
"Okay, let's go."
Ni Dahai didn't stand on ceremony and followed behind the few of them.
Tian Xiner affectionately pulled Mi Xaing 'er out of the mall. She pointed at the bus sign on the side of the road. "Well, we still have to take the bus for two more stops."
Ni Dahai interjected, "No need. I have a car parked by the side of the road."
He took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and shook the key ring with his finger. He whistled and walked to the side of the road, shivering.
Mi Xaing 'er looked at the car.
Wow!
It was a brand-new two-door Tiara with a hard top. This car was equivalent to a 21st-century Ferrari. It was a very luxurious car.
She couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement. "Wow, Comrade Big Ni, this car is good. It's very classy."
Ni Dahai curled his lips proudly. "It's the company's car."
The company's car?
Yun Jingqi squinted her eyes. "I remember you said just now that you're a temporary worker in the Business Bureau. Why is there a car for you?"
"Ah, temporary workers are different. I'm just a temporary worker. Hey, I'll talk about it in detail later." Ni Dahai opened the car door. "Ladies, please get in the car. I'll take you for a ride."
He poked the Tian Xiner with two fingers. "You'd better sit in the back. I'm afraid that the little snake on your body will slip out accidentally."
The Tian Xiner deliberately teased him. She pretended to put her hand into her sleeve and quickly pulled it out. Unexpectedly, her fair hand was in front of Ni Dahai. She said softly, "Hey, be careful!"
Ni Dahai was really scared and trembled. He quickly took half a step back. When he saw that there was nothing in her hand, he was so angry that he scolded, "Little Poisonous Girl, Little Chili, Little Liar!"
Mi Xaing 'er pushed him. "That's enough. Are we going or not?"
Ni Dahai finally stopped talking. He raised his chin resentfully. "Xiao Mi, you sit in the front passenger seat. I'm determined to draw a clear line with Little Poisonous Girl and stay as far away from her as possible."
The Tian Xiner ignored him. She lowered her head and got into the car.
She obviously hadn't seen much of the world. As soon as she sat down in the car, she looked around and bounced her butt in the seat. There was some excitement on her face. "Even our stockade doesn't have such a good car. I don't think there's any in the county either."
Her tone was childish and her expression was simple. She looked pitiful.
Yun Jingqi looked at her steadily.
To be honest, she was very curious about this girl. She really wanted to talk to her for three days and three nights. She didn't want to talk about anything else but Tong Che.
However, she was a reserved person after all. In front of her sister-in-law and outsiders, she could only suppress her curiosity.
Mi Xaing 'er sat in the front passenger seat. She saw everything clearly from the rearview mirror. However, she wasn't a talkative person. She simply pretended not to see anything. Tong Che and Yun Jingqi should be settled by themselves.
Ni Dahai started the engine. "Little Poisonous Girl, the address …"
The Tian Xiner told him the address. Ni Dahai stepped on the accelerator and the car slowly drove onto the road.
Only then did he speak again. "Xiao Mi, it's fortunate that I met you here today. Otherwise, even if I called your village, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find you. We might have lost contact in the future. Tell me, isn't it fate that we meet again?"
Mi Xaing 'er treated him as a friend. She was a 21st-century person. Naturally, she was more casual than the people of that era when it came to interpersonal relationships and thinking. She didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said. Originally, the two of them had missed each other and might never meet again. It was indeed fate that they met again.
She was a straightforward person. She went straight to the point. "So, you're not going back to the county anymore?"
"I'm not going back. My work has been settled." Ni Dahai didn't treat the person in the car as an outsider. He said bluntly, "I'll still say the same thing. The current policy is slowly changing. It's no longer the most glorious time of going to the countryside. If you want to develop in the future, you still have to stay in the city. Anyway, I'll be watching from the sidelines.
"Then what exactly are you doing?"
"There's a Foreign Trade Experiment Group under the Commerce Bureau. I'm there. However, no one goes to this department at all. Why?"
Mi Xaing 'er smiled. She knew very well. "Everyone doesn't dare to come into contact with new things outside. They're afraid of making mistakes."
Ni Dahai gave her a thumbs up. "I like how smart you are. You immediately understood why it's called an experiment group. The subtext is that it might be disbanded at any time, so no one is willing to go. Besides, the main job of this department is to receive the paper tigers of the United States and Su Xiu. Everyone is afraid of getting involved with them. No one wants to be a spy."
He waved his hand casually. "But I'm not afraid. I took the initiative to ask for the experiment. With my keen observation, the general trend in the future is that only by earning money from foreigners will we be able to develop and become rich."
Emma.
In that era …
His idea was quite advanced. Probably only a ruffian and popular person like Ni Dahai would dare to say something like that.
Also, coming into contact with foreigners.
Ordinary people didn't even dare to think about it.
Mi Xiang'er admired his courage and insight from the bottom of her heart.
Ni Dahai turned to look at her as he drove. "Xiao Mi, just in time. I have something to ask you. Do you want to earn some extra money with me?"
"Ah …"
