A drunkenness made Jiang Xingchen relax in his tense state. When he returned to the house, he had a rare time to get lazy. He did not continue working, but lay on the bed, closed his eyes and rested.
"Cruff!" The sound of the door opening sounded. Jiang Xingchen opened his eyes and saw Mei'er walking in.
"Huh? Why are you back?" Jiang Xingchen sat up in surprise. Usually, Mei'er doesn't come back until dark, and sometimes she is too busy with work and spending the night in the city hall is not new. It's just past nine o'clock now.
"Puchi!" Mei'er suddenly laughed and said, "I was so drunk yesterday. I'll come back to see if you're awake..."
Mei'er smiled and Jiang Xingchen felt that his old face was hot. She was so embarrassing yesterday. It's true that even if she was drunk, there was no need to sing any magical songs.
"Does the head still hurt?" Mei'er came to Jiang Xingchen and reached out to touch his forehead.
"Hey!" Jiang Xingchen was speechless. I was drunk. I was not having a fever, so why should I touch my forehead!
"I drank so much yesterday and didn't eat much. I must be hungry. You lie down for a while and I'll cook for my brother!" Mei'er smiled and turned her head and walked out.
"Mei'er, just ask the restaurant to send some, don't you have to go to work?" Jiang Xingchen sat up. For some reason, he always felt that Mei'er was a little strange today.
"What's the name? I'll make it for you, eat some light food, how about white rice porridge... Don't refute, just lie down and wait!" After saying that, Mei'er's tone suddenly became very strong.
Jiang Xingchen's words were blocked when he got to his mouth and looked at Mei'er in a daze. This girl... hasn't spoken to me like this for many years, what's wrong today?
Mei'er went to the kitchen, but Jiang Xingchen was full of questions. However, he recalled more about the situation when he was in Hongyuan City. At that time, the little girl butler was so strong to talk to him, especially the night he had just traveled over, he forced the black bread into his mouth... Also, the second brother joked with me, and the little girl kicked the crotch from behind...
Scenes emerged from the depths of memory. Jiang Xingchen's mouth couldn't help but curl up. At that time, Mei'er always pretended to be strong and liked to play with her. It was really nostalgic... I don't know when it started. This girl became quieter and quieter, and she buried her thoughts in her heart...
"Brother, the meal is ready, get up and have a meal!" Mei'er pushed the door and walked in, holding a tray in her hand. Jiang Xingchen immediately smelled the light fragrance of white rice porridge, and the saliva secretion in his mouth immediately increased.
"Only white rice porridge and mustard shredded greens!" Mei'er put the tray on the table, and Jiang Xingchen was already sitting by the table quickly.
"Have you washed your face by brushing your teeth?" Mei'er slapped Jiang Xingchen's outstretched hand.
"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen looked up at Mei'er, and his eyes were full of doubts. What's wrong with this girl today?
"Go quickly, it will be cold in a while!" At Mei'er's urging, Jiang Xingchen went to wash his face and brush his teeth in confusion...
During the meal, Jiang Xingchen felt even more weird. Mei'er looked at him with her chin with both hands, but her eyes were not focal. She was obviously empty.
After having a fresh and hot breakfast, Jiang Xingchen's physical discomfort gradually disappeared. However, Mei'er's weirdness continued.
After packing up the dishes, she did not go back to work, but took out a pair of Gozi chess and said with a smile: "Brother, let's play chess. It's been a long time since she played!"
"Do you... really don't have to go to work?" Jiang Xingchen asked.
"I won't delay my work... I'm very tired during this period, and I want to relax!" Mei'er said, spreading out the chessboard.
Jiang Xingchen felt like he was being pinched. Mei'er's workload was greater than that of herself. When she was injured a while ago, she had at least rested for a while, but Mei'er had never rested much. She was different from Grandpa Fu. At least dozens of people in the financial department had to share the work. However, Mei'er had to ask about almost everything in management.
"Yes, it's time to let the little girl rest for a while!" Jiang Xingchen said in his heart and nodded with a smile: "Okay, play chess! But you haven't played for so long, is your level okay?"
"Hmph!" Mei'er raised her chin proudly and said, "Brother has never been... This is how. Whoever loses will be punished, how about it?"
"This..." Jiang Xingchen was sweating on his forehead at that time, and he secretly scolded himself for talking too much. Isn't this awkward thing for himself? Mei'er's level is much better than him.
"Or... don't want it! How bad is it to punish you later?" Jiang Xingchen was still stubborn.
"It's okay, I'm not afraid of being punished, so I'll just say it. For regular play, three-hand exchange, five-hand two-stroke, black chess three-three-forbidden hands, four-four-forbidden hands, long-range-forbidden hands..."
Seeing that Mei'er was so excited, Jiang Xingchen nodded and agreed. He hadn't seen the little girl like this for many years, so of course he was unwilling to disappoint her.
But not long after, he regretted it and said with a bitter face: "Can you stop singing?"
"No, I admit that I'll accept the loss. I have to sing and dance!" Mei'er's eyes narrowed as she smiled, like two crescent moons.
Two private soldiers in the yard were drinking water, and suddenly a singing came from the room: "You are my little apple..."
"Puff!" The two of them squirted at that time. Yesterday they both witnessed the scene of Lord Jue drunk and crazy. It has been so long since they had passed, why haven't they woke up yet? It was normal to see Lord Jue scold Zhao Danqing and the others just now.
In the next half hour, the two private soldiers had cramps on their faces. They wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so they endured it.
"Brother, you lost, I want to listen to no dy!"
"Brother, you lost again, sing me the elephant song of Shin-chan with Crayon!"
"If you don't sing, you will definitely not sing!" Jiang Xingchen really regrets now. He shouldn't have agreed to this girl, exactly the same as she was ten years ago.
"No matter, if you lose, you will be punished and sing the elephant song..."
He kept playing until noon, and Jiang Xingchen ran out of the room as if he was hungry. Although he didn't know what happened to this girl today, he was very happy and finally saw Mei'er's cheerful look again.
"Huh? What's wrong with you two?" Jiang Xingchen looked at the two private soldiers squatting by the yard wall in surprise.
"My stomach...the stomach cramps!" said the two private soldiers panting.
Jiang Xingchen twitched wildly, and ran over and kicked: "Get out of here..."
The lunch was made by Mei'er. After changing his appearance in the morning, the little girl calmed down again, gently picked up food for Jiang Xingchen and wiped his mouth...
After lunch, Mei'er stopped staying at home and went back to the city hall. Jiang Xingchen had no intention of working at all, thinking about the little girl's abnormality.
But after thinking about it, Jiang Xingchen thought that just like Mei'er said, she should relax her mindset. She has been under a lot of work pressure over the years.
In the afternoon, Tang Chuxue, kitten girl, and Xianning came over one by one. When they met, they asked Jiang Xingchen if they knew what he had done after drinking too much yesterday?
Jiang Xingchen blushed so much that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into it. He kept cursing Zhao Danqing and his second brother, swearing that he would definitely deal with them well when he found an opportunity.
Jiang Xingchen was surprised again at night. Mei'er did not come back for dinner. She asked the private soldiers to go to the city hall to take a look and said that Mei'er was still in office.
After waiting until late, Mei'er didn't come back, Jiang Xingchen fell asleep in a daze.
The next morning, Jiang Xingchen woke up and saw Mei'er's busy figure. Breakfast was already on the table.
"When did you come back yesterday?" Jiang Xingchen asked, rubbing his eyes and rubbing his eyes.
"It's almost twelve o'clock, my brother hurry up and wash up. The breakfast is ready. Today is corn porridge and big cakes and fried eggs!" Mei'er urged.
"I'm back so late!" Jiang Xingchen frowned and asked, "Didn't you say you want to relax? Why are you still working so late?"
"Relaxation can't delay work... Get up quickly and have dinner later to accompany me to the amusement park!" Mei'er walked over and pulled Jiang Xingchen up.
"Ah?" Jiang Xingchen was a little confused. He worked so late yesterday, did he want to relax again today?
After finishing breakfast quickly, Mei'er pulled him and ran to the amusement park...
In the next few days, Mei'er dragged Jiang Xingchen to accompany her in the morning, and went to work at the city hall after lunch, and it was very late every day. Once it was two o'clock in the evening.
In recent days, Mei'er has also played in various ways. She asked Jiang Xingchen to make her the biggest puzzle, asking Xingchen to bring the panoramic view. The two of them rode their bicycles to the tea garden to pick spring tea. They took their fishing rods to fish in the lake... They didn't bring any more styles every day.
While Jiang Xingchen felt that Mei'er was happy, he was also filled with worry. Mei'er slept too late every day and got up very early in the morning. How could she do it after a long time?
Half a month passed like this. In mid-April, busy spring plowing began in various places. The number of tourists in the territory fell rapidly and the enrollment work was basically completed. The two thousand children recommended by super users and the earliest batch of children recruited were staying in Xingchenling.
The simple house and canteen Duan’s family have been built long ago, and the children’s arrangements went very smoothly.
During this period, Zijing Entertainment held its first performance in the imperial capital. The lighting installation aroused great interest. Many people decided to go to Xingchenling in summer to see what the city never sleeps like.
The project of the bell tower was also agreed. After seeing the clock, the emperor was very interested in this time-keeping device with automatic timekeeping and agreed to build a bell tower in the imperial capital.
Jiang Xingchen immediately sent craftsmen when he received the news, and the drawings were divided into two parts and handed over to the two departments of construction and steel. The gear chains need to be produced by the steel plant, and the installation requires the construction department.
The railway from Hongyuan City to Qiankun Imperial Capital was also going well, the roadbed construction was basically completed, and the paving was later!
For this reason, Jiang Xingchen went to the university. The construction of the railway from Hongyuan City to the imperial capital was so fast that it required the telegraph machine to be developed as soon as possible.
The transmission distance of the telegraph machine in the last experiment was very short because the resistance increased and interference affected the electromagnetic signal. In fact, Jiang Xingchen knew that the most important link in telegraph transmission had not yet been expected by everyone, it was the Morse code. (To be continued.)
