When Cheng Qi woke up, it was already dark. At the edge of his bed sat a beautiful young woman dressed in a half-sleeved hanfu - her face was perfect like that of a goddess, and a gilded Qibao crested hairpin was inserted in the loose green silk behind her head. For a moment, Cheng Qi suddenly shuddered, and he remembered that this beautiful young woman was his cousin Xia Yusi, who he had feared the most since he was a child.

Xia Yusi's mother and her mother are sisters, and the two families have a very close relationship. When Cheng Qi was still running around with his bare ass, Xia Yusi, who had already started reading with his husband at home, had a perfect overwhelming advantage over him in terms of physical strength and intelligence, and when Cheng Qi grew up enough to be able to fight back physically, Xia Yusi's cousin had already become a great beauty in ten miles and eight towns, and on the other hand, he could eat his cousin to death.

Cheng Qi saw the fruit knife in his cousin's hand and the plate of oranges that had been cut on the bedside table, and struggled to sit up: "Sister......"

"I'm awake." Xia Yusi happily stuffed the freshly peeled apple in his hand into his mouth: "I'm bored to death...... Where did those two dead guys go? I guess it's going to hook up with a nurse. Oh yes, that's the newspaper you want. ”

Xia Yusi bent down and took out a stack of newspapers from somewhere and threw it on the bed: "My brother, you are really a good baby." Don't forget to study after all this...... If my father sees it, those two living treasures will be trained again tonight. ”

Cheng Qi remembered that Xia Yusi was talking about her family's two younger brothers: Xia Neyan and Xia Zhuoxing. This pair of twin young masters can be described as living treasures, smart and clever without teachers not boasting, but they don't like to read, and they tinker with some unprofessional things in their garage every day, which can make the adults in the family worry to death.

Cheng Qi smiled: "Each has its own place to go, and reading is just a road." I'm useless and can only read, and if I don't read, I'll starve to death. ”

"I hate you for being so serious." Xia Yusi came over, and the fragrant rouge breath almost choked Cheng Qi to death: "Obviously, I can get a full score in every exam, but I still have to say no, no." Don't you know what men are most taboo to say no? ”

Cheng Qi was speechless for a while, and he remembered that the former owner of his body didn't seem to have taken a little advantage from Cousin Xia since he was a child—unless she gave him a lot of mercy.

This cousin is a stunner, her background can be regarded as a first-class family in the local area, whether it is the inheritance of the family background or the family business she has, she can be ranked the top in the local hometown. But she's a restless person, at least in some ways, and may be quite unpopular with some honor-minded families. However, the maverick lady of the Xia family doesn't care about the sunshine of those ordinary people, what she wants to do, it seems that nothing can stop her.

Cheng Qi propped up the bed board, sat firmly on the hospital bed, and picked up a newspaper to relieve the awkward atmosphere.

Soochow Evening News, June 20, 2195. The news headlines that imitate Song, the text of Song, and even the content of the text are simplified Chinese characters (vulgar characters), except for the vertical layout, which takes a little time to get used to, and the rest seem to be able to switch seamlessly.

Calendar 2195...... I don't know how many years it is in the Gregorian calendar? Cheng Qi thought in his heart, looked out the window again, and suddenly asked, "Sister...... You used to be a journalist. ”

"yes, why did you forget your sister's business when your head got into the water?"

"I'm kind of amnesiac...... You've been abroad, haven't you...... Where have you been? ”

"Hey, I'm happy to say this, I've been to so many places. If you want to talk about foreign countries, the most visited are the United States of the South China Sea, and Xia has also been there...... There must have been five or six times, and then there were some small countries in Tessie, and I had been to Black Africa. ”

"Have you been to the United States?"

"The United States? What kind of small country is this? Xia Yusi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't seem to be able to remember it at all.

It seems that the lighthouse of this time and space has not been built, oops, what should I do if it is like a long night now!

Cheng Qi flipped through the newspaper casually, and the article on his head was nothing more than Huzhou Taishou condolences to the lonely and widowed elderly, Deqing Zhi County inspected the canal construction site, and Changxing excavated ancient biological sites......

Turning to the social news in the back, it has not changed the true color of the news industry, all kinds of gossip and lace are flying all over the sky, the daughter-in-law of a wealthy businessman is suspected of having an affair with a handsome little student of a certain opera troupe, the wife and concubine of someone's son-in-law are incompatible, and the figure of Lao Wang next door haunts it. All in all, although it transcends time and space, there seems to be nothing different about the human mind in this world.

Because it is a local newspaper, "Soochow News" does not set up an international section, but Cheng Qi still found a lot of useful knowledge between the lines.

First of all, through the introduction of some stocks in the financial section, he learned that this place also has a story, and the largest exchange is still in Shanghai Prefecture in Songjiang Prefecture - well, it's still called Shanghai. However, across the sea, Hangzhou also has its own exchange, and most of the companies traded on this exchange are companies that do overseas trade, such as the Great Dongzhou Company, the Southwest Australia Development Company, and the Cape of Good Hope Shipping Company.

Secondly, he found that the era did not seem to have begun the third industrial revolution, and there was not a single word in the newspapers about "mobile phones" or "computers", "Internet" and the like, but there were many introductions about the invention of electricity.

"It seems that we have just entered the era of multi-riveting steamed steel." Cheng Qi thought to himself: "I don't know what kind of world is outside this ward, it's really getting more and more interesting." ”

Xia Yusi tore his newspaper open: "People come to see you, but you read the newspaper." It's so boring...... If you don't talk to me again, I'm leaving! ”

Cheng Qi smiled wryly, and suddenly remembered a question; "Where's my brother-in-law?"

"Oops, that dead ghost...... It's all fire. I don't even do it, but I want to be a dart master for others. When I came back last night, I was happy to tell me that I had received a big order, which I thought was a good thing, but it turned out to be a bodyguard for some geological team members, and went to the heavenly country to find oil...... You say, "Isn't this going to die?" ”

When it comes to the men in her family, Xia Yusi is on fire: the dead ghost she only married last year turned out to be the head of the school review army stationed in a remote place, and he is also an official. When he returned to his hometown after the expiration of his service last year, he originally arranged an errand in the yamen by looking for a disciple, but he went to find a business that licked blood on his head. Before the young couple had time to get married, they had to go to the distant desert to find oil...... It is no wonder that the young woman of the spring boudoir is full of complaints.
