Return To 1998

Jiang Yiming, the elder brother of Jiang Xiaomei, a woman who injured her head in a car accident and is still under observation in the intensive care unit.

It was a middle-aged man in a business uniform.

This person used to work and live in the provincial capital. When he received a call and heard that his sister had a car accident, his life and death were uncertain, so he rushed from the provincial capital.

Unfortunately, family members are not allowed to visit in the intensive care unit.

Even if he came from the provincial capital, he would not be able to see his sister for the time being.

Hearing that Tongdao Xu immediately called the police and called an ambulance when the accident happened, without delaying the hospital to treat his sister, Jiang Yiming, who was worried, still warmly invited Tongdao Xu and Zeng Xueyi to have lunch.

Xu Tongdao and Zeng Xueyi politely declined at first.

But Jiang Yiming said that he didn't eat lunch himself, and invited him again and again.

Zeng Xueyi was still hesitating, but Xu Tongdao had already agreed.

As the original time and space said in a joke - as soon as I see your sister, I will hand over your brother.

When Xu Tongdao saw the industrial and commercial uniform on Jiang Yiming's body, his heart was moved, and he had the idea of ​​making friends.

Utilitarian?

But in the adult world, if you want to get along well, who is not utilitarian?

In life, we see a person who may be able to help us in our career. Who will not develop a little friendship?

Jiang Yiming called his brother-in-law and others, went to a restaurant outside the hospital, asked for two private rooms, ordered two tables, and specially arranged Xu Tongdao and Zeng Xueyi to the table where he was.

While eating and drinking, Xu Tongdao learned his name and also learned that his industrial and commercial uniform was not from Shuiziao City, but from Tianyun City, the provincial capital.

Tongdao Xu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

But immediately, his mentality adjusted, and he felt that Jiang Yiming was not bad at work in the provincial capital. If the mountains did not come to me, I could go to the mountains!

Xu Tongdao felt that when he became stronger, he would go to the provincial capital to get some branches of Internet cafes and hot pot restaurants.

At that time, Jiang Yiming should be able to take care of one or two.

With this thought in mind, the smile on Xu Tongdao's face never disappeared.

From time to time toast Jiang Yiming with a glass of wine.

At this time, he only hoped that Jiang Xiaomei could break through the gate of hell this time, wake up as soon as possible, and get out of the dangerous period as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if she dies, he and Jiang Yiming will probably have nothing to do with each other in the future.

After the meal, Xu Tongdao and Zeng Xueyi said goodbye to Jiang Yiming and others at the door of the hotel.

When he returned, Tongdao Xu, who had been drinking, couldn't drive, so he left the steering wheel to Zeng Xueyi.

The car doesn't go fast, but it's stable.

Xu Tongdao sat in the passenger seat with some emotion in his heart.

Unexpectedly, my kindness at one o'clock in the morning helped me to report to the police and call an ambulance, and it actually paid off.

This was unexpected to him.

Before he came to the hospital to visit the couple today, he never imagined that the couple who were selling vegetables had an elder brother Jiang Yiming who worked in the industrial and commercial department of the provincial capital.

Judging from Jiang Yiming's aura and style, he looks a bit like a leader.

This couple is also interesting. The eldest brother works in the industrial and commercial department of the provincial capital. They do not go to the provincial capital to sell vegetables, but they do business in the water bird city.

Is it to help Jiang Yiming avoid suspicion?

Xu Tongdao thinks there may be reasons for this.

Besides, there should be two other reasons.

For example: the couple's home is located in the water bird city, and the Chinese people's temperament to relocate to the land is not incomprehensible.

Another example: Just now, during the conversation, Xu Tongdao heard Jiang Yiming mention that after he changed his career, he was assigned to Tianyun City, and he has settled in Tianyun City since then. He was in Mizutori City, and he also had comrades in arms who had also returned from their careers.

In that case, his sister and brother-in-law should be able to take care of his comrades in this water bird city.

All kinds of scattered information were gathered in Xu Tongdao's mind at this time, allowing him to understand Jiang Yiming more clearly.

Hey, what are you thinking about?

Zeng Xueyi who was driving suddenly asked.

Xu Tongdao's train of thought was interrupted, but he was not angry. He turned to look at her, looked at her for a while, and shook his head slightly, I didn't think anything, by the way, are you in a good mood?

Her husband died in a car accident after all.

Zeng Xueyi smiled lightly, It's okay.

Looking a little insincere.

Tongdao Xu could understand, and after thinking about it, he changed the subject, By the way, when will the court of your daughter's custody lawsuit begin? It should be soon, right?

Well, it's coming soon, the court session will start next week.

Speaking, Zeng Xueyi sighed, I don't know if I can win the lawsuit...

This woman is really pitiful.

Tongdao Xu reached out and patted her thigh, Don't worry! You are the mother of the child, dear, there is no reason for you to lose this kind of lawsuit. I will accompany you to the court.

Zeng Xueyi nodded slightly, I hope! Thank you.

Tell me thank you?

Ah.

Zeng Xueyi chuckled.

...

evening.

Tongdao Xu drove Zeng Xueyi to Ximen Yipin Hotpot Restaurant, not only to have dinner with her, but also to see the popularity of the business here tonight.

His hot pot restaurant, after all, only opened yesterday.

Yesterday's business was good, but the popularity on the first day of opening must have been inflated. There was so much publicity before the opening; the preferential activities on the opening day; and, Fu Yuan and others arranged privately...

Might still be there today.

But to see it in person, Xu Tongdao felt that it was still necessary.

When they entered the store, it was about half past five in the afternoon.

Before entering the store, Tongdao Xu turned his head and glanced at the Hot Girl Hot Pot City diagonally opposite.

Through the glass wall facing the street, he could see that there were only three or four tables of guests in the lobby on the first floor of the Hot Pot City.

And he took Zeng Xueyi into his hot pot restaurant, but at a glance, he saw that there were already more than a dozen tables of customers in the store.

This is delightful!

Not far from the bar, there is a stepped condiment table about two meters long. On the three-story condiment table, there are about twenty kinds of hot pot dipping ingredients in large glass bowls.

There are various sauces, including chopped green onion, minced garlic, minced coriander, chopped millet spicy, as well as sesame oil, mature vinegar, chili oil and so on.

Tongdao Xu saw several men and women carrying small plates, where they were mixing various dipping sauces.

He also saw deep in the hall, on the transparent glass wall of the kitchen, a gray-haired old man with his hands behind his back, through the glass wall, looking at the busy cooks and aunties in the kitchen...

Boss, this way please!

The long-legged beauty dressed in a red cheongsam with a cheongsam on her waist and a long-legged woman smiled and led Xu Tongdao and Zeng Xueyi. This cheongsam beauty was just standing at the door of the store with another cheongsam beauty. When she saw Xu Tongdao and Zeng Xueyi going upstairs, she immediately moved her eyes. He enthusiastically took the initiative to lead Tongdao Xu and the others in.

Obviously, she recognized Xu Tongdao's identity.

Tongdao Xu picked a table by the window and sat down. When ordering food, Fu Yuan walked over quickly to say hello, his face was full of smiles.
