rebirth of cataclysm

Hu Mingchen stayed in the hospital for a total of four days. He was not discharged until another CT scan confirmed that his bones were fine, there was no bleeding afterward, and there was no concussion.

The key was the impact when his head hit the ground. The impact was so hard that not only did Hu Mingchen faint at that time, but there was also a big gash in the back of his head, which caused a lot of blood.

When Hu Mingchen was hospitalized, Song Qiaoshan and Song Qian mainly took care of him. Xu Jie never appeared once, but Xu Ren and his wife did come to see him once. In any case, Hu Mingchen did this because he wanted to save their granddaughter.

Speaking of Hu Mingchen's action of rescuing Song Qian, if Hu Mingchen is asked to do it again, he may not be able to do it. It is a bit contrary to the principles of mechanics. Hu Mingchen himself did not expect that he could be so powerful in the air.

He pulled Song Qian below him up on top of him. It was precisely because of such violent force that the momentum of Hu Mingchen's fall was greatly strengthened, thus aggravating his injuries.

After he was discharged from the hospital, Hu Mingchen did not go home right away. He still had gauze tied around his head. Now that he goes back, his family will not only be worried, but they will also break the casserole and ask questions.

So, Hu Mingchen simply stayed in Zhennan for two days and went back after the stitches were removed.

Song Qiaoshan and Song Qian asked Hu Mingchen to live at home, but Hu Mingchen refused.

First of all, Hu Mingchen felt that he would feel uncomfortable living in Xu Ren's small building. Secondly, Song Qiaoshan would go back to Liangcheng to work on the day Hu Mingchen was discharged from the hospital. Without Song Qiaoshan, Hu Mingchen would feel more unfamiliar, even though his relationship with Song Qian was improved.

A very big improvement.

If Hu Mingchen hadn't been hospitalized, Song Qiaoshan would have returned to Liangcheng two days ago. It was Hu Mingchen who was hospitalized, so he took two more days off.

Hu Mingchen lived not far away, so Song Qiaoshan opened a room for him in the Jinjiang Hotel. The place was not far from home, the surrounding environment was good, and it was in the city center.

Without Song Qiaoshan, the task of accompanying Hu Mingchen fell on Song Qian.

Every morning, when Hu Mingchen comes back from his walk, Song Qian will be waiting for him in the hotel lobby.

Song Qian was a landlord, and Hu Mingchen was her savior. Song Qian took Hu Mingchen around, tasting various snacks and delicacies in Zhennan, and visiting several famous scenic spots in Zhennan.

On this day, the weather was beautiful and it was sunny, as if spring had arrived early. Song Qian accompanied Hu Mingchen to Nanshan Lake for fun and took him to an alley next to the city hall to eat ice powder.

"Let me tell you, despite the location of this ice noodle shop, the business is very good. It is an old shop for decades. It uses a lot of ingredients. When you taste it, I guarantee that you will want another bowl after one bowl.

." Song Qian introduced with a chirping voice as she walked with Hu Mingchen on the stone slabs of the narrow alley.

Hu Mingchen, on the other hand, was noncommittal to Song Qian's ostentatious introduction and did not respond at all. Hu Mingchen's attention was actually diverted by the environment of this place.

There are dark wooden houses on both sides of the alley, covered with tiles. The houses are low and some are crooked. It feels like they will collapse at any time after a heavy rain.

Cars cannot enter this small alley, only pedestrians and bicycles can pass through.

Every old wooden house has a door god on the door. Some of the couplets on the side have faded and aged. Looking into the house through a wooden framed window, although the lights are on inside, it is still very dark and difficult to see clearly.

in.

Hu Mingchen looked up to the right, and saw a contrasting tall apartment building rising from the ground. It had a light green glass curtain wall and was very beautiful. It looked like it was at least thirty stories high.

"Hey, what are you looking at? I'm introducing you. Why don't you say anything? You are so arrogant." She introduced herself, but Hu Mingchen didn't seem to hear her. Song Qian suddenly became anxious.

.

"Oh, ah, that's what I heard. You said the ice powder is delicious. You can eat more later." Hu Mingchen woke up and said.

"I eat more, why should I eat more? I, I eat it all the time. You are just perfunctory with me, you didn't really listen to what I said." Song Qian pouted and complained.

"Song Qian, you said you come to this place often? Then tell me, there are high-rise buildings all around, why is this place so dilapidated?" Hu Mingchen didn't care about Song Qian's complaints, but changed the subject and asked.

"This...how do I know? People just like to live in old houses." Song Qian looked around, confused.

"Is this the city government on the left?" Hu Mingchen asked.

"Yeah, you're asking nonsense, we got off the bus at the city hall station just now." Song Qian still felt bad about Hu Mingchen not listening to her introduction speech carefully.

"Oh, then I understand." Hu Mingchen nodded as if he was stunned.

"You understand, what do you understand?" Song Qian asked confused.

"Haha, it's nothing. Is that the ice powder shop you mentioned, the Grandma's ice powder shop?" Hu Mingchen smiled enigmatically and asked, pointing to a few meters ahead.

There was a signboard for Grandma's Ice Noodles hanging on the roadside in front, and the originally deserted alley was bustling in that place, with a few young men and women standing at the door.

"Yes, it's right here. Look, there are people queuing up. How good the business is."

"Then let's go queue up and taste two bowls."

This grandma's ice cream shop is very narrow, with tables and stools placed in the main room. Although it has been decorated and does not look as bright as other houses, it has not changed the layout of this old house at all. People will still feel bored when they walk in.

The four small tables placed in the main room were all full of people. The one on the wall in the middle was not a portrait of the Lord of Heaven and Earth, but a portrait of the king. On both sides of the table, there were five slightly smaller ones.

Portraits of the ten marshals in uniform.

Song Qian and Hu Mingchen waited in line for about ten minutes before they found space to sit down. In addition to selling ice noodles, this store also sells jelly noodles and handmade glutinous rice balls. Song Qian ordered a bowl of ice noodles and a bowl of cold noodles.

, Hu Mingchen ordered a bowl of ice powder and a bowl of sesame glutinous rice balls.

Hu Mingchen had only finished half of his bowl of glutinous rice balls when three elderly people in their seventies came to patronize the business. Young people like Hu Mingchen and others were greeted by a woman in her thirties, but those elderly people were...

The old woman who was making glutinous rice balls in an apron just now came to say hello and receive her. She must be the soul and soul of this store, Grandma.

"Second brother, third brother, sister Guihua, you are here, are you still the same?" the old woman greeted with a smile.

"We can't eat cold food either. It's still the same. We brothers have sesame glutinous rice balls, and sister Osmanthus eats sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice balls." The old man, who was called the second brother and held a cane in his hand, answered.

"Okay, you do it first, I'll make it for you first and cook it right away." The old woman raised her hands, which were still covered in flour, and said with a smile.

"Second brother, I heard that your son bought a new house at the east gate. When will you move there to live with the children?" After grandma left, the third brother, who was called third brother, asked curiously.

"Even if I want to go, I have to be able to live in it. His house is only about eighty square meters, which is enough for their family of four to live in. If I go, where will I live? Forget it, I'll just stay here."

In this old house." The second brother sighed and responded.

"Hey, now the house price has risen to more than 3,000 to 4,000 yuan. I can't afford it. If I could afford it, I would live in a building. This alley is so humid that my feet and knees hurt almost every day." Bai, who is called Sister Guihua.

The old woman said.

"Didn't your daughter's workplace share a house? You can live there," the second brother said.

"What are you talking about? Can I live with my uncle's house? That's a woman, not a son. It would be great if my son didn't have any work-related injuries." Sister Guihua said quietly.

"Osmanthus, your grandson has graduated from college. When he gets married, you can live in a big house together." The third brother consoled him.

"Don't mention it, that guy just got an apartment, but I heard that they no longer divide the house, and they have to buy it outside. I met a girlfriend, and the girl's family also asked me to buy a house before we could agree to the marriage. I'm worried about him now.

It happened. In order to treat his father's illness, I spent all my savings. Otherwise, I could help him buy a house." Sister Guihua said.

"Actually, our place is quite good. We are in the center of the city, next to the government, and it's convenient to go out and do anything." The old man named Third Brother said.

"Nonsense, your house is on the roadside. You sold it and bought a house in Qingyue Community next to it. Why didn't you say this when you still lived here?" the second brother retorted.

"Hey, my house didn't sell for much. It cost more than 200,000 yuan. If I sell it now, it might sell for 300,000 yuan. Speaking of which, I lost money. Besides, the main reason is that the children are clamoring to sell it and buy it.

Otherwise, I might not be willing to sell my new house. These neighbors have lived together for decades. If anything happens, just shout. When I get to the community, I will tell you that for two years, I don’t know the last name of the door opposite to my house. It’s boring.

"The third brother said with a simple smile.

"So you come here to play with us every day when you have nothing to do?"

"Hey, you are used to it. After eating for a while, we will go to your house to play mahjong. I lost seventeen yuan yesterday, and I have to win it back today. By the way, second brother, you won money yesterday. This meal,

You have to invite me, Sister Osmanthus, don’t you think so?” Third Brother said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I also lost eight yuan yesterday. I still lost four yuan when I ate a bowl of glutinous rice balls that cost four yuan." When she heard that she wanted to encourage her second brother to treat him, Guihua immediately agreed.

"You two... okay, okay, I'll win you back later." The second brother paused his crutch on the ground twice and agreed helplessly.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Why are you so interested in the old people chatting? And you're eavesdropping." Hu Mingchen was listening attentively to what a few old people were saying when Song Qian suddenly poked him.

"This is a public place, why are you eavesdropping? It's so unpleasant." Hu Mingchen drank half of the bowl of ice powder in one gulp.

"Then you don't like gambling. When you heard that the old man wanted to play mahjong, you just wanted to join in and win the old man's money, right?"

"Am I that evil? Really, have you finished eating? Let's go as soon as possible after eating. Aren't you tired after swimming all day?"

"I've already finished eating and waited for you, okay?"
