I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life
Chapter 178 Desk Lamp
Because Xu Congyi bought a cow today, to celebrate the fact that the Xu family has their own cow, tonight's dishes are very rich. They eat and chat, talking about today's experience of buying a cow, past farming fun, and beautiful visions for the future. The topic is endless and the laughter continues. Xu Congyi excitedly shared how he and Shen Xiao picked buffaloes at the market, while Old Man Xu talked about his farming days when he was young with great emotion, his words were full of nostalgia for the past and expectations for the future.
As the night deepened, the dishes on the table gradually ran out, but the laughter and joy of the family lingered for a long time. After eating and drinking, everyone got up, cleaned up everything, and went back to their rooms to rest with satisfaction.
Xu Congyi was lying on the bed, replaying today's scenes in his mind. He suddenly remembered that Tang Wenhao went back to the Tang family after lunch. He wondered if anything happened. He looked at the time and it was just nine o'clock. He thought Shen Xiao was still awake, so he thought of asking Shen Xiao.
Xu Cong thought twice and arrived at the courtyard of Shen's house. He saw that there was no light in Shen Xiao's room. "Could he have fallen asleep?"
Just as she was wondering, a slight noise came from the door, interrupting her thoughts. Xu Congyi quickly squatted down, using the stone table beside him as a cover, carefully hiding his figure. Shen Xiao pushed the door open and walked in, moving very lightly, for fear of disturbing the sleeping grandfather at home. After he entered the door, he quickly and skillfully inserted the bolt, and the whole process was silent.
Seeing that it was Shen Xiao holding the oil lamp, Xu Cong stood up and called him softly, "Brother Shen Xiao".
Shen Xiao looked back, a little surprised. He thought Xu Congyi would not come back, after all, they had just separated in the afternoon. Xu Congyi followed Shen Xiao into the house and asked about Tang Wenhao.
"I was lying in bed and couldn't sleep just now. I remembered that Brother Wenhao went back to the Tang family this afternoon. I don't know what news he found out, so I wanted to ask you."
"I did know some secrets, but Wenhao didn't elaborate. When I went out just now, he told me to go to Tangji to find him tomorrow and tell me about this. How about you come with me tomorrow?" Shen Xiao asked.
"No, I'll come see you tomorrow night. My family doesn't know that I can teleport. I just came to the city today, so it would be too frequent to come here tomorrow. Please tell me about it in the evening."
"Okay." Shen Xiao always obeyed Xu Congyi's orders. Seeing Shen Xiao's books spread out on the table, he must be studying again. However, in ancient times, lighting at night depended entirely on oil lamps, which was really harmful to the eyes. If he used the desk lamp in Xu Congyi's space, it would not work without power.
"Brother Shen Xiao, come with me into the space, and bring your writing brush, ink, paper, inkstone, books and the like." Xu Cong thought that he could let Shen Xiao study in his own space at night! Anyway, he usually went to bed late.
"Okay," Shen Xiao guessed that Xu Congyi wanted him to study in the space, which was as bright as day but not dazzling. It was indeed excellent.
Xu Congyi's small apartment has one bedroom and one living room. Although she lives alone, she bought a large dining table at that time. If she has urgent work to deal with, she can just spread out her food on the dining table. She has plenty of space.
"Brother Shen Xiao, just sit here and study. I'll go to the room over there and not disturb you. If you need anything, just call me." Xu Congyi poured Shen Xiao a cup of warm water. She knew that if she was next to Shen Xiao, she would definitely want to talk to him. Although Shen Xiao would definitely accompany her, the efficiency of studying in the space would be too low. It would be better for her to study at home.
The two agreed that Shen Xiao would study in the space for an hour, which would be eleven o'clock. After seeing Shen Xiao off, it was time for Xu Congyi to pack up and go to bed.
Shen Xiao was studying outside. Xu Congyi returned to the bedroom and closed the door. She brought the tablet into the room and planned to buy a long-lasting desk lamp. She knew that Shen Xiao said it would take an hour, and he would definitely need to read some more after returning. Besides, it would get dark early, and he couldn't come before she finished dinner, so preparing a desk lamp could also protect Shen Xiao's eyes.
The lamp's details page said it could last for four hours, so Xu Congyi bought two and swapped them out, charging one while using the other, without any delay. However, because the lamp was out of power, Xu Congyi couldn't give it to Shen Xiao today and had to wait until tomorrow.
There was no TV in the bedroom and the tablet couldn't play games, so Xu Congyi bought a few books from Taobao. It had been a long time since he had read a paper book, so he was fascinated by it and two hours passed quickly.
"Yi Yi, one hour is up," Shen Xiao called her outside the door. Xu Congyi specially placed a small alarm clock on the dining table and told Shen Xiao how to distinguish time in modern times. So when the alarm clock rang after two hours, she knew that the time was up.
"Okay!" Xu Congyi put the book on the bedside, walked out of the bedroom, took Shen Xiao's hand and sat on the sofa, "Don't leave in a hurry, take a break, Brother Shen Xiao, come to my place to review every day in the future, I won't disturb you. The oil lamp at night is too dim, and you are willing to study, it will be bad if you hurt your eyes."
"Okay, I'll listen to you," Shen Xiao rubbed Xu Congyi's head. He is not as reserved as before. What's more, Xu Congyi is still thinking about him.
