Rebirth to 80s: Daughter-in-law is a Bit Spicy

"Why don't I go?"

Ning Xue added, "When you are in trouble, only your compatriots can help you in a foreign country."

There is nothing wrong with this.

It's just that Xia Xiaolan always thought that Ning Xue would not care about these interpersonal contacts at all.

The flowers of Gaoling have a day in the group, and Xia Xiaolan will naturally be surprised.

"I have a Saturday morning. If things go well, I can leave at noon. What kind of party do we need to prepare?"

Ning Xue knows more than Xia Xiaolan, she may have been in contact with the Chinese international student group here.

"The funds for the party are all collected by the old people. The newcomers can bring nothing, or they can bring something to eat in the past, a pizza, a barbecue, or a bottle of wine, and a few fruits."

If it is too complicated, it is not welcoming the newcomers, but adding to the financial burden on the newcomers.

Who has no money to study abroad now?

A party that Ning Xue could attend, there should be nothing messy, Xia Xiaolan also agreed to set off with Ning Xue.

The two agreed on a time to meet.

Knowing that Xia Xiaolan was going to New York to attend an international student gathering, Professor Wen and Hu Ying did not object.

A young girl in her early 20s, expecting her not to play with her peers, not go out to parties, and stay at home to read books all day long. Is this good?

This is withdrawn in the United States!

Only young people who are unpopular and have no friends can live like this.

"It's okay to get to know more people. Your Teacher Mao and I met with friends when we met. We didn't call it a party back then."

Professor Wen is even very supportive.

With the same cultural background and the same study abroad experience, it is easy to meet like-minded friends.

Xia Xiaolan said to buy some food to take in the store, Hu Ying also objected:

"This kind of party, it's best to bake some cake yourself and bring it over."

Xia Xiaolan is a real cook and can only learn from Hu Ying.

She just laid hands on Hu Ying. She already felt very troublesome. When Zhou Cheng called, she still complained:

"Why do I make a cake for a group of strangers? Even if I make it, it will be made for you and my mother..."

Zhou Cheng laughed:

"Then you practice your hands first. When you return to China in the future, I must taste your craftsmanship. The sentence just now is a joke. Don't take it seriously. I burned my own hands, and it doesn’t matter if I don’t learn how to make cakes."

Professional matters should be left to professional people.

Xia Xiaolan's specialty is to build a house, why must she learn to bake cakes?

If a person is omniscient and omnipotent, can this society develop? Don't you return to a self-sufficient feudal society!

Xia Xiaolan went to attend a gathering of foreign students, and Zhou Cheng did not object.

Everyone needs to make friends. If he is afraid of Xia Xiaolan being hooked up by someone, he would not approve of Xia Xiaolan going abroad for a year.

There is always no shortage of good people around Xia Xiaolan. What Zhou Cheng has to do is not to catch the flies, but to make himself better. He has only one requirement. I hope Xia Xiaolan can share with him what he saw at the next party when he comes back.

Zhou Cheng seemed to be very interested in what these students who went to the United States from China were.

Xia Xiaolan readily agreed.

"Don't worry, I went to New York last week, and this time I will be with Ning Xue."

I haven't learned how to bake cakes. The private detective introduced by Winmany has found the town of Ithaca.

The private detective introduced by Winmany is a fat man.

It looks harmless to humans and animals. When I saw Xia Xiaolan, I was still trying my best to stuff things into my mouth. The donuts were covered with a thick chocolate sauce and a lot of maple syrup. The only thing Xia Xiaolan was not used to eating was probably Sweets.

The sweets in the United States are really sweet. Xia Xiaolan suspects that Americans are particularly slow to sweetness. They think delicious desserts, Xia Xiaolan can't accept it completely.

This private detective, in Xia Xiaolan's eyes, is another patient with severe sweetness.

"Don't I look like a private detective?"

The other party finished stuffing the doughnuts, and said a little vaguely: "What kind of detective do you remember, like Sherlock Holmes?"

Xia Xiaolan nodded, not as classic as Sherlock Holmes, wearing a windbreaker, being capable, tall and thin seemed to be a necessary entry requirement. She was brainwashed by later film and television works.

Tall and handsome, why not want to be a private detective!

"What should I call you?"

"Jim, sorry for ruining your illusion of a private detective, but I am the best in this line. You can't find a better private detective in New York than me. Let's talk about the business, the person you are looking for, Tell me everything, the more detailed the better!"

Being thin has no effect on being a detective.

Isn't the tall, thin, sneaky guy in a trench coat more noticeable?

People will not deliberately pay attention to fat people. Fat people like Jim are everywhere in the United States. It is normal for him to appear everywhere!

Xia Xiaolan gave the information to Jim. If the conventional means could not find it, she would check whether the antique Xu Zhongyi brought back from her grandma back to China is now circulating in some specific collection markets.

This is the focus of Jim's investigation.

After hearing all the information, Jim didn’t say whether it’s difficult or not. He only told Xia Xiaolan two things: “First, you must be mentally prepared. Maybe he has suffered an accident! But I am the best detective in New York. Even if a person has died, I will find out his death record and whether he has family members living in the United States. Second, it is very expensive to ask me to do things. , I can give you a 20% discount on the face of Connie."

"Jim, you can say a price and see if I can accept it."

Xia Xiaolan was mentally prepared for spending money.

Snakes, insects, mice and ants, everyone has their own way. Xia Xiaolan ran to San Francisco like a headless fly to find someone, but it didn't work at all.

"Ten thousand dollars, you can pay me 2,000 dollars first. This is the survey fee I need to go to San Francisco. If you find someone, you pay the rest!"

"Can't find it?"

"I can't find it... I can't find it. I only charge $2,000 for hard work, and you don't have to pay the rest!"

Therefore, Jim will not refund the 2,000 dollars.

Xia Xiaolan nodded, "Mr. Jim, I appreciate your confidence, and I hope to pay you the balance as soon as possible."

This Jim really dared to speak.

Ten thousand dollars?

It is not easy for most Americans to take out such a large sum of cash.

This amount of money can cover the tuition and living expenses of American college students for a year... If ordinary families can spend this amount of money at will, there will not be so many people who want to borrow to go to school!

But if these ten thousand dollars can find a son for her grandma, Xia Xiaolan feels that a thousand dollars are worth a thousand dollars.
