In CI you should use a model to do this kind of tasks, but you can pack the result to a string and return that, just use true as third parameter in $this->load->view :

$string = $this->load->view('my_view',$data,true);

A full example would be:

public function test()
{
    $data['a'] = 'hello world!';
    $string = $this->load->view('first_view',$data,true);
    return $string;
}
    
public function hello()
{
    $data['read'] = $this->test();
    $this->load->view('second_view',$data);
}

Bye :)
