Chapter 13 Fate

Grass, what day is today, I can actually bump into my father's colleague's wife when I go out, now, I'm really completely finished!

A tall middle-aged woman in an autumn dress walked in at the door of the store, with a long pointed face and short hair, no doubt the wife of my father's colleague in the factory, Shen Xiaofang, I always called her Aunt Xiaofang.

Aunt Xiaofang is one of the "partners" who often play mahjong with my father, and when I was 7 or 8 years old, my father would sometimes take me to Aunt Xiaofang's house when he went to play mahjong. I remember that their house was quite large, and there was a white poodle, and I often played with his dog. Although my father rarely took me to Aunt Xiaofang's house after I entered elementary school, he sometimes took me to her house for dinner and guests.

And I have a very good impression of Aunt Xiaofang, she is very eager and friendly to people, generous, and I have the impression that when I was a child, Aunt Xiaofang bought me a comic book such as Sanmao Wanderings and a few clothes.

The last time I saw her was when I did well in the high school entrance examination, my dad invited her to a treat, and at that time she wanted to give me a gift, but my dad politely refused.

At this moment, when I saw Aunt Xiaofang enter the door, my good impression of her was of no use at all, because I knew that I would rather she hadn't come in.

When she saw me, she walked towards me with a smile on her face.

She was carrying a bag with a yellow coat revealing from the mouth of the bag, which appeared to contain the clothes she had just bought.

"Aunt Xiaofang, you also come with clothes. "I felt like I was suffocating, and I didn't know what to say.

"Well, I just saw you walk in from a distance, and it looks a bit like, thinking that it shouldn't be you, but it turns out that it's really you when I walk in. Jiandong, why did you come to buy clothes alone, or a children's clothing store?" Aunt Xiaofang asked with a smile. Although Aunt Xiaofang looks average, her smile is still quite affinable.

Seeing the smile on Aunt Xiaofang's face, I felt my nervous heart twitching.

Aunt Xiaofang looked at me, and her eyes quickly moved to the baby clothes on the cash register behind me, and suddenly, the expression on her face ...... It's really quite exciting.

"Ah, Jiandong, how did you buy baby clothes? Who did you buy them for? Is it your cousin? He gave birth? When did you get married? Just like the reaction that every normal person will have, Aunt Xiaofang couldn't help but be surprised when she saw those baby clothes.

No way.

My cousin is only 8 years older than me, and now he is 24, and he is still in college in another place, how can he get married and have children so early.

But in the face of Aunt Xiaofang, I really can't think of any lies for a while, Aunt Xiaofang is not unaware of the situation in my family, she knows that my parents are divorced, so naturally I don't think that my clothes were bought by someone on my mother's side, so I naturally thought that it was bought for my cousin or something.

I'm not a good liar, because every time I lie, I feel my face is hot, and I feel uncomfortable, and I will unconsciously avoid the other person's eyes.

But this time I can't lie anymore.

My brain was spinning, and soon I had an excuse that I couldn't even put into words.

"That...... I bought this dress for my classmate's sister. I lied, but my voice became very soft because of my weak heart and lack of confidence.

"Sister who helped her classmates?" Aunt Xiaofang didn't react for a while. I'll admit it's a bit of a stretch. And I really think it's lame enough that I won't believe it when I hear it come out of someone's mouth. "Why didn't he buy it himself, and asked you to buy it?"

"Hey, hey, hey. I rubbed my head and smiled stiffly," he ...... He was also embarrassed. ”

But what makes me wonder if I should be surprised is that Aunt Xiaofang actually believed it.

"Oh. So that's the case, that classmate shouldn't be a girl, right?" Aunt Xiaofang suddenly raised an eyebrow and teased me with a smile.

"How could it be. I hurriedly retorted, but my face was hot.

"Looks like it. Aunt Xiaofang still refused to give up teasing me, so I didn't know what to say to defend myself for a while, because I was originally weak-hearted, for fear of saying too much and leaking my mouth, so I could only stand stupidly and be laughed at by her for a while.

"Okay, Jiandong, since it's for your classmates, Auntie will help you pay for it. Seeing my embarrassment and laughing for a while, Aunt Xiaofang suddenly said that she would help me pay.

"Oh, no...... I've already paid for the money. And my classmates will give me money. "It was really unexpected to hear that she was going to pay for me, and I hurriedly said that I had already paid so that she didn't have to do it. Although I really hope that someone can help me save money, but if that person is Aunt Xiaofang, forget it, she is very good to me, and I don't want her to be cheated out of money by me.

"That's right. ”

Aunt Xiaofang was also a little embarrassed when she heard my words, she looked at the plastic bag of my baby clothes that had been filled, and suddenly asked, "By the way, did you buy the baby's hat?"

When Aunt Xiaofang said this, I remembered that I had forgotten to buy a hat, and I was speechless.

"Hat...... Haven't bought it yet. I answered honestly.

"If you don't buy it, I'll pick one for you. Aunt Xiaofang said eagerly, and then walked to a corner of the clothing store where many brightly colored baby hats were hung, and after a few glances, she picked a soft hat with a sky blue pattern and a grape-like ornament on the top of the hat.

"I look at this hat and think it's pretty good, don't you think?" Walking to the cashier counter with the hat, Aunt Xiaofang asked me while taking out the money to help me pay.

I said yes but refused her to help me pay, but Aunt Xiaofang smiled and said it didn't matter, and then paid before me.

Baby hat 32 yuan. In fact, the price is not expensive, but I am a little embarrassed to ask Aunt Xiaofang to help me pay.

"Thank you, Auntie. "Seeing the stamp on the invoice that has been stamped, that's all I can say.

"No thanks, no thanks. Aunt Xiaofang smiled and said, and then she seemed to think of something again, and said mysteriously, "I also bought you a hat when you were young, and you definitely don't know." ”

I was slightly taken aback by this. Although I have known Aunt Xiaofang since I was a child and she was very kind to me, I didn't expect that she also bought baby hats when I was a child.

"Really......? I don't remember. ”

"How can you remember such a small thing?" Aunt Xiaofang still smiled, "At that time, you didn't even open your eyes, and your whole person was as thin as a monkey spirit." ”

"Hey, that's. My dad said the same about me. ”

I smiled awkwardly, I really can't remember, but the baby hat was stuffed into a plastic bag, and I said goodbye to her.

"Then thank you, Aunt Xiaofang. Then I'll go first...... Uh, send the clothes to my classmates. "I deliberately carried the bag in my hand, but I wanted to rush home in one go and find a dark cabinet to hide in the rocket.

"Good. Aunt Xiaofang didn't say anything when she saw me going, but before I left, she suddenly asked mysteriously, "By the way, Jiandong, have you found a girlfriend? ”

I rubbed it, I almost squirted. Which one is this playing?

My face was hot again, and I said, "Why do you ask this? It's too early, Aunt Xiaofang." I didn't think about it. ”

Aunt Xiaofang looked at my almost incoherent appearance and laughed again.

"Then I'll have to try to find one sooner. Auntie is waiting. ”

"I really didn't think about it...... Hey, Auntie, I'll go first. ”

I really can't hold on anymore, although I'm quite dirty, but if I really have to face this kind of problem like finding a partner to fall in love, I will be at a loss and want to avoid it. Of course, it's still high school, so it's too early to talk about it. So I also know that Aunt Xiaofang is just joking when she asks me this, but even if it is a joke, I will feel embarrassed and avoid such topics.

Hurriedly drank Aunt Xiaofang said goodbye, and I left the clothing store in a hurry.

When I came to the bustling square outside, my mood gradually calmed down.

Looking up at the round above my head today, I suddenly felt emotional.

Hey, what an eventful time.

I can even buy a few clothes to fit an acquaintance, it seems that my luck today is really not an ordinary back.

But on the way home, I was thinking about another question, I was quite concerned about Aunt Xiaofang saying that she had bought a baby hat for me before.

16 years ago, she bought the baby hat for me who was just born, and 16 years later, she also bought the baby hat for Xiao Jiaqi.

Behind the passage of time, in the shadows of these prosperous years, is there really something called fate lurking?
