Chapter 44: All the Way
As soon as Chu Xiao entered the door, Tong Xiang found that he was in a particularly happy mood.
"Why are you so happy when you go out on a trip?"
As soon as he heard this, Chu Xiao immediately restrained the smile on his face, "Is there one?" ”
Without waiting for Tong Xiang to say anything, Chu Xiao took out two exquisite gift boxes from his sleeves.
Tong Xiang frowned slightly, his tone was full of doubts, "This is, given to me?" ”
These gift boxes look like they contain some jewelry or something, and she has always disliked these Chu Xiao also knows.
But now he is giving these things to himself, which not only makes Tong Xiang suspicious.
Chu Xiao nodded seriously, "I know you don't like complicated jewelry, so I specially selected a simpler style for you." ”
While speaking, Chu Xiao opened the gift box with the hairpin, "This magnolia is simple but exquisite, it is very suitable for you." ”
Tong Xiang looked at it and nodded slowly.
"Since it's your heart, let's stay."
After finishing speaking, Tong Xiang inadvertently caught a glimpse of another box in Chu Xiao's hand and couldn't help but ask.
"What's in this box?"
Speaking of this, Chu Xiao also came to the spirit.
"This thing was given to me by the shopkeeper of the hairpin, I haven't seen this hair ornament before, but it looks good."
Tong Xiang took the box, opened it and looked at it, and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
According to common sense, there should be no such thing as a bow hairpin in this era, so why is this thing in your hands now?
Moreover, Chu Xiao said that it was given to him by the shopkeeper, could it be that the shopkeeper knew that he had crossed over?
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that Tong Xiang didn't speak for a long time, Chu Xiao couldn't help but get nervous, could it be that they were being targeted by someone again?
Tong Xiang, who was immersed in his thoughts, immediately came back to his senses when he heard Chu Xiao's words.
She looked at Chu Xiao and smiled awkwardly, "It's nothing, I just think this thing is a little novel." ”
Speaking of this, Chu Xiao sighed slightly.
"I have to say that this shopkeeper is also well-informed."
"How?"
Tong Xiang rarely heard Chu Xiao comment on a person like this, and if nothing else, Chu Xiao had only met that person once.
Chu Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and his hand gently tapped the water cup on his waist.
"This person can tell at a glance that I am a glass of water."
Thinking of this, Chu Xiao couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, originally he thought that he was already a rich man, but he didn't expect to meet an opponent now.
"Looks like there's still a lot I haven't seen before."
Chu Xiao's face was solemn, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction with himself.
Tong Xiang gently patted Chu Xiao's shoulder, and a sweet smile squeezed out of his face without powder.
"Actually, you're also very powerful, maybe he happened to meet the master in the forest."
Chu Xiao looked surprised, "You're too powerful, that's what he told me." ”
Chu Xiao's words made Tong Xiang more interested in the boss who picked up hairpins, could it be that she is not the only one who has crossed over in this world?
The next morning, there were no patients, so Tong Xiang had to go out to pick up hairpins.
In order to attract the attention of the shopkeeper, Tong Xiang specially brought the bow presented by the shopkeeper yesterday.
As soon as Tong Xiang entered the door, Xiao Er greeted him.
"Girl, our shopkeeper has been waiting for a long time."
"Wait for me?"
Tong Xiang asked knowingly, pretending to be surprised.
Xiao Er nodded seriously, and his tone was full of worship for the shopkeeper.
"Yes, after that boy left yesterday, our boss said that a girl would come over with a hairpin today."
Tong Xiang followed Xiao Er, passed through the palatial shop, and came to the backyard.
As soon as you enter the backyard, you will be greeted by a bamboo forest.
Walking through the path between the bamboo forests, Tong Xiang seemed to have returned to modern times.
"When was this house built?"
Looking at this modern decoration style, Tong Xiang couldn't help but ask.
Sensing that Xiao Er didn't respond to him for a long time, Tong Xiang noticed a trace of weirdness.
She turned around to find that there was no one behind her, which made her even more vigilant.
The whole courtyard is quiet, and only the slight sound of the bamboo leaves swaying gently in the breeze makes people feel that they are not in the painting.
Standing in place for a few seconds, Tong Xiang felt that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, after all, he was a newcomer, so it was better not to cause trouble.
"Why is the girl going back?"
As soon as Tong Xiang turned around, he heard a low male voice behind him.
She immediately stopped her steps and stared coldly at the man behind her.
"There is not even a person to lead the way, so naturally I don't dare to set foot in the territory of the son."
The shopkeeper looked at Tong Xiang and smiled, "I have always disliked people disturbing my life, so I told them that the backyard can only go to the bamboo forest and cannot go further." ”
Without waiting for Tong Xiang to say anything more, the shopkeeper spoke again, "Girl, we must be from the same place, right?" ”
The shopkeeper's words made Tong Xiang interested, and there was a little more smile on his indifferent face.
"What does that mean?"
The shopkeeper didn't hide it, and went straight to the point, "Listen carefully to what I'm going to talk about, and if you feel the need to talk about it after listening, we'll talk about it again." ”
"Please." Tong Xiang stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture, "Listen up." ”
"I'm from another world, and it's not the same as here. In that world, there is a means of transportation called a car, which can take people anywhere they want without being carried or pulled by horses. ”
Seeing Tong Xiang's expressionless face, the shopkeeper chuckled lightly and pointed to the villa behind him.
"The house behind me was not a novelty in that era, and I built it to be nostalgic for the life I once had."
“……”
Tong Xiang quietly listened to the words of the person in front of him, and there was more surprise in his eyes.
She didn't expect that she would be able to find someone from the same place in this place.
"Hello, girl, I'm Zhao Yiqing."
Tong Xiang was slightly stunned, and then the corners of his mouth hooked up a shallow smile, "Tong Xiang." ”
Probably from the intimacy of the same place, the relationship between the two seems to be a lot closer.
Zhao Yiqing invited Tong Xiang to the living room and brought her a cup of coffee.
"It's been a long time since you've tasted anything like this, have you?"
Smelling the burst of aroma coming from the cup, Tong Xiang couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"How did you do that?"
Zhao Yiqing smiled, "I sent someone to find coffee trees, planted some in this garden, and made them myself." ”
Tong Xiang couldn't help but admire when he heard this, this Zhao Yiqing is really a person who can enjoy life.
After sitting here for a long time, Tong Xiang didn't see anyone else.
"Don't you have a family?"
Zhao Yiqing's expression changed slightly, "Could it be that when the girl came, did her relatives come with her?" ”
"No, my soul has just crossed over to someone else's body, and my current family is also the family of this body itself."
Hearing Zhao Yiqing's words, Tong Xiang hurriedly explained.
Zhao Yiqing nodded thoughtfully, "Then the two of us are still a little different, as soon as I opened my eyes, the whole person was here." ”
"And how did you get such a big property?"
Tong Xiang looked at the person in front of him, he was not very old, but now this shop and house are not like they can be obtained in a short time.
Zhao Yiqing raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, "It's just an ordinary little genius in business." ”
"You're awesome, then."
Tong Xiang sneered and said slowly.
Zhao Yiqing smiled awkwardly, "General." ”
In fact, Zhao Yiqing is not boasting when he says this, he is a very successful entrepreneur in the 21st century.
"I heard that the girl opened a pharmacy, I don't know if there is any use for it?"
In order to alleviate the awkward atmosphere between the two people, Zhao Yiqing hurriedly changed the topic.
Tong Xiang stared at Zhao Yiqing calmly, although he didn't make a sound, it made Zhao Yiqing's heart a little hairy.
"I don't mean anything else, I just think it's a little bit of a foreign country, and I can help a little bit."
Tong Xiang's attitude was not softened by Zhao Yiqing's words, "You investigate me? ”
Zhao Yiqing hurriedly smiled, "Miss Tong, don't misinterpret what I mean, I'm just out of curiosity." ”
Tong Xiang thought about it for a while, and felt that it might indeed be that he had complicated things, and his eyes softened a little.
"It's better to be cautious when you're new here, it's offended."
The two chatted a few more words, and Tong Xiang got up and went home.
This Zhao Yiqing seems to be a trustworthy person, maybe he can help with Baihua's affairs.
It's just that they are not very familiar with each other now, and Tong Xiang doesn't dare to say anything more to him.
Their family has no power here, and she doesn't dare to share the secrets of her money easily.
As soon as he entered the medicine hall, Chu Xiao greeted him.
"You're finally back, and there's a patient waiting inside."
As soon as she heard this, Tong Xiang didn't have time to think about cooperating with Zhao Yiqing, she took three steps and made two steps and two consultations.
Looking at the familiar figure lying on the hospital bed, Tong Xiang couldn't help but be a little frightened.
"Why did you get beaten like this?"
Lying on the hospital bed was the boy who had been sent by the woman a few days ago, this time he was a little fatter than the last time, but his body was full of scars.
As soon as the woman heard Tong Xiang's words, she immediately knelt down at her feet.
"It's all the gangsters on the street, they took away Jun'er's sugar gourd, Jun'er was angry, and he was beaten like this, doctor, you must save him."
The boy lying on the bed grinned in pain, and he barely managed to squeeze a few words out of his teeth.
"Pain-help-me, thanks-thanks."
Tong Xiang sighed lightly, walked to the hospital bed, and checked the child's injuries.
"At a young age, my temper is quite hard, I like it."
"However, if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, you don't have to argue with them, isn't it still you who will not be guilty?"
