My wife is a dragon.
Chapter 111: Zheng Jinglong writes a diary
Chapter 111: Zheng Jinglong writes a diary
Exactly one month has passed since Lucia came to Earth.
Now the date has come to the end of November.
In a few days, until December begins, it will be the two coldest months in Shu Province.
Although the climate here rarely drops below zero degrees, winter is particularly painful because the air is cold and humid, and the average humidity is even stable at 80%.
Xia Li took out all the thick clothes at the bottom of the closet and put them on. The autumn johns that he used to disliked became an indispensable item in winter after he became an adult.
He poured himself a cup of hot water. Lucia was sitting on a small stool in the living room writing. Xia Li returned to his room quietly.
After a long month of adaptation, Xia Li's life of raising a dragon at home has gotten on track.
This kind of ordinary daily life is the lifestyle that Xia Li should have. The days of surviving desperate situations in the other world are abnormal.
During the day, Lucia spends her time studying and cooking, while Xia Li sits in front of the computer typing on the keyboard every day, and occasionally goes to the kitchen to help.
At night, Xia Li began to persuade Lucia to sleep in his room.
If the trick is successful, you will get a sweet and soft little dragon. You can hold it and sleep with it all night, and feel full of energy the next day.
After his trick failed, he was left alone in the empty room, and could only comfort himself by stroking the dragon's hand twice as hard the next day.
Recently, although Lucia didn't know what was "initiative" and "counterattack", she at least had some reaction under Xia Li's increasingly aggressive teasing.
Her cheeks would occasionally turn red, as if she was shy, but her expression remained as serious as usual.
"Crackling,"
In the room, the crisp sound of typing on the keyboard echoed all around.
The data of Xia Li's travelogue serialized online is gradually increasing.
Although there are many exotic beast novels on the Internet with dragon protagonists, the protagonists of those novels are basically time travelers, and there are very few exotic beast novels with local protagonists.
Unlike those dragon novels that incorporate modern ideas, Xia Li's story is written purely based on the thinking of the indigenous dragons in another world. This is actually eye-opening, coupled with the rigorous setting and complex worldview, as long as you accept this peculiar unit drama narrative technique, the subsequent progressive stories will become more and more fascinating.
Xia Li plans to save some more manuscripts in the next two days, and then start trying to find a job.
Xia Li took Fu Yuan's words to heart that night.
If you really want to start a business, you must first enter the industry and understand the actual situation.
The information obtained through indirect inquiries or from the Internet is time-sensitive and may not necessarily be applicable to the market environment of Qingcheng City.
You have to practice it yourself.
Instead of hesitating at home, it is better to take action directly, even if it is working as a waiter in a coffee shop, which is worse than being trapped in an information cocoon.
Three years of living in a different world on the Aize continent has made Xia Li a man of action.
After typing the last line of words and looking at the soaring data in the background, Xia Li swayed from side to side in his gaming chair, his mind in a mess.
By the way, the Sichuan restaurant downstairs is hiring...
It would be nice to work as a waiter in a restaurant. This kind of small restaurant is only busy for a few hours a day and the location is so close to his home. When Lucia needs him, he can go upstairs and go home at any time.
The key to working for others is to read more and learn more.
Once you have figured out all these tricks, you can try to break in...
"Why has Xiaoxia been so quiet recently?"
His wandering thoughts returned to the old couple, and Xia Li suddenly remembered that he had never told them his thoughts.
After all, the first start-up capital still has to rely on the family, so it is better to discuss these things with the old couple.
Taking out his cell phone, Xia Li searched for the chat window with Ms. Fang.
You won’t know if you don’t read it, but you will be shocked if you read it.
I haven't contacted Ms. Fang for nearly a month.
As a modern woman who is always worrying and has endless thoughts every day, it is unusual for Ms. Fang to be quiet for so many days... It is abnormal, too abnormal!
Summer Dawn: Mom, the weather has been getting colder recently. Please wear more clothes and don’t catch a cold.
First say hello, then show your respect.
Summer Dawn: Have you eaten?
I glanced at the time on the computer. It was now ten o'clock in the morning, neither early nor late. It was hard to tell whether I was asking the other person about breakfast or lunch.
Thinking that Ms. Fang was probably busy in the store at the moment, Xia Li waited for two minutes but received no message, so he prepared to pick up the keyboard and start typing again.
As soon as I touched the mouse, my cell phone rang.
Ms. Fang: Who are you?
Ms. Fang: Oh, isn’t this my son?
Ms. Fang: We haven’t been in touch for a month, and we’ve become strangers!
Summer Dawn: ...
A set of attacking moves unique to Shu women: weird and strange.
Ms. Fang: If you hadn’t come to see me, I would have forgotten that I had a son! Look at my poor memory!
Summer Dawn: You are busy, I will come to see you later
Ms. Fang: It’s okay, you can come back to see me next year.
Ms. Fang: [smiles]
Maybe in the eyes of the older generation, the smiling expression is really a smile.
But in Ms. Fang's eyes, a smile is more than just a smile.
The people of Shu Province had an extraordinary understanding of sarcasm, and her expression was a wake-up call to Xia Li.
Summer Dawn: Oh, by the way, Mom, let me teach you something.
Ms. Fang's final warning did have some effect. Xia Li did not dare to really slip away, but instead diverted the conflict as if nothing had happened.
Ms. Fang: Yes. Summer Dawn: ...Teach me how to run a business.
When it comes to entrepreneurship, Fang Xia may not be able to keep up with the changing times, but she definitely knows how to run a business.
Since she got married to Lao Xia, Fang Xia has been running a grocery store. At that time, the grocery business was pretty good. Fang Xia also rented the house upstairs and opened a hotel.
Later, Mr. Xia was transferred to another job, and the old couple wanted to send Xia Li to a better place to go to school, so they moved out of the old house.
The family's small business was packed up and someone was found to take over. After the new house was settled, Fang Xia used the money from the sale of the previous shop to start some small business.
Fang Xia is now running a teahouse. There are teahouses everywhere in Shu Province. Although you can't make much money from it, it saves time and effort.
Ms. Fang: Why are you asking this out of the blue?
Ms. Fang: I see that all your college classmates have become teachers. Do you have any idea in this regard?
Summer Dawn: No, the profession of teacher is good, but it is not suitable for me.
Ms. Fang: So what do you want to do?
Summer Dawn: Find something to do... start with the basics.
Fang Xia was very thoughtful and could clearly see what Xia Li was thinking.
However, Fang Xia generally would not reject her son's ideas as long as they were not too unreliable.
Pouring cold water is not the usual educational method used in this family. Fang Xia's usual style is to let Xia Li try good or bad things on his own, and let him judge right or wrong by himself.
Because of this, Xia Li has always been a person with his own opinions, and the group of children in Building No. 3 all love to play with him.
Ms. Fang: If you have any ideas, just tell me. What is the purpose of sending messages on the phone? Can you explain it clearly?
Summer Dawn: Then I will come back tomorrow.
Xia Li has always had a strong ability to execute what he says.
He exited the backstage directly and opened the ticket purchasing software.
It is a 120-kilometer drive from Xia Li's hometown in Qingcheng City to Miyang City where Fang Xia lives. It takes less than two hours by car and about minutes by high-speed rail. Every time Xia Li goes home, he has to buy tickets in advance.
Ms. Fang: You came back by yourself?
Fang Xia's implication was very clear.
Xia Li has a girlfriend now, and they have been living together for so long. It would be fine if he didn't say anything at other times, but it would be unreasonable not to bring her back when she comes home so rarely.
Xia Li stared at the message and was troubled for a moment.
He would now be very willing to take Lucia home.
After all, even the neighbors have seen it, so there is no need to hide it anymore. It would be better to let the old couple see it.
But, a two-hour drive...
It’s impossible to buy Lucia’s ticket on the high-speed rail.
Unless I can drive a spacious car, it would be difficult to take her back.
But there is a paradox here.
Xia Li returned home to pave the way for his business plan. The purpose of starting a business was to earn money to buy Lucia a convertible, and the purpose of buying a car... was to take her on a long trip.
Xia Li can’t even afford half a wheel now, so how can he drive Lucia back?
After hesitating for two minutes, Fang Xia sent another message.
Ms. Fang: Don’t come back by yourself.
Summer Dawn: ???
What is this mother talking about?
Summer Dawn: Mom, let me go ask Xiaolu if she is willing to come back with me.
In short, retreat first in order to advance.
Lucia's wishes mattered.
She was a girl who had come to seek refuge, and from Fang Xia's perspective, she was very pitiful. If Lucia didn't go home with Xia Li because she was embarrassed or had other concerns, Fang Xia would not make it difficult for Lucia.
After making a battle plan, Xia Li went to the living room with his cell phone.
In the living room, Lucia was still sitting on a small stool writing.
She leaned her upper body over the coffee table, holding a pencil in her hand.
Because she had just learned the standard pen-holding posture, Lucia held the pencil very tightly, and the handwriting on the paper was very heavy. One word could even leave traces on three sheets of paper.
"What are you writing about? Why are you so focused?"
Xia Li had seen her writing a long time ago.
I've been writing for half the morning, why haven't I finished it yet?
However, Xia Li just leaned forward to ask, but the evil dragon was guarding against Xia Li as if he was guarding against an intruder. It stretched out its little hand and covered the notebook with it to prevent Xia Li from seeing it.
"Diary?" Xia Lile.
Who hasn’t written a diary when they were a child? Even if you don’t, the class teacher will assign this kind of homework.
"No..." Lucia shook her head.
She raised her eyes, her expression extremely serious.
Those usually gentle almond-shaped eyes were red, as if she had just experienced something that made her sad.
"Ok?"
Xia Li felt strange.
Xia Li lowered his head and looked at the two-word title at the top of the notebook, and was stunned for a moment.
A suicide note?
What the hell? ?
