Chapter Twenty-Seven: Ah Xing is gone
It was already eleven o'clock when they returned to Xichao, and the two first went to the shopping mall electrical city to buy a mobile phone, Chen Tianyun strongly advocated buying the same mobile phone with him, because he was more familiar with the functions of his mobile phone, and it was easier to check. This crime of Mr. Chen's intent to invade the privacy of others has obviously been established.
Although Hu Xixi was not an idle person, he was still fooled by him and bought a smartphone that was exactly the same as him.
When I put the card into the phone, the messages were full, most of them were from the secretary's desk, Mayor Tong called her twice, and also sent a message, asking her if she came back today, and Ah Xing did not go to school today.
She was in a hurry, and hurriedly called Mayor Tong, who was in a meeting, and it was the secretary who listened to the phone, so she had to leave a message and ask him to call back after the meeting.
"What now? Why don't you go to the school? Chen Tianyun suggested, Hu Xixi nodded, pulled the door and got into the car, his face was a little worried, Chen Tianyun held her hand, knowing that she was nervous about her relatives, and explained: "Don't worry, Ah Xing is a sensible child." ”
Hu Xixi smiled reluctantly, "I know, I'm just afraid that the family will trouble him, but I believe they don't dare, and Ah Xing won't spend their money now." ”
"It should be a problem with learning, or it's the puppy love problem I said, don't worry, we'll know when we ask at school." Chen Tianyun started the car and drove slowly on the streets of Xichao Town, there were many cars, and there were vendors selling on the street, shouting: "White sugar cake, mung bean cake, white flower frog cake." ”
"What is a white flower crab cake?" Chen Tianyun is a child in the city and has never heard of the food of these wild herbs. Hu Xixi explained: "It is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, used to make cakes to nourish yin and stop bleeding, clear heat and detoxify, I grew up eating this pastry, in the past, three yuan a catty, half a catty can eat me and Huanhuan to the full." ”
"Oh, it looks delicious." Chen Tianyun actually wanted to try the taste of Hu Xixi's youth, "It's better to buy it and eat it when we come back." ”
"Good!" Hu Xixi watched the figure of the mother-in-law who sold pastries gradually shrank from the rearview mirror, it was still the mother-in-law before, the pastries she made were Huanhuan's favorite food, and she was a skillful mother-in-law, at that time Huanhuan was particularly envious of the mother-in-law's granddaughter, and the little girl who accompanied her mother-in-law to sell pastries on holidays always stood beside her mother-in-law obediently and docilely, why didn't they have such a good grandmother.
Chen Tianyun thought of a question: "By the way, what about your mother's maiden family?" Do you have an uncle or grandmother? Why haven't I heard you say that? ”
"There is only one uncle, my grandmother is estimated to have passed away, she was very sick when my mother died, my uncle was not married at that time, much younger than my mother, I have not been back for so many years, but I called my grandmother's house, no one answered, and people looked for it, and the neighbor said that my uncle went out to work, as for my grandmother, I really don't know her whereabouts." Hu Xixi said ashamedly. In fact, she now said that she was going to her grandmother's house and didn't know how to go, only knew the approximate address, and I remembered the specifics when I was looking for it a few years ago, and after the address was given to that person, she came back and said that there was no news and she forgot it, and she couldn't even remember the name of the village, no wonder she was there, she only went once when she was a few years old, and her grandmother's house was originally rich, but then her grandfather was sick and spent a lot of money on treatment, and she also owed a lot of debt, and Hu's mother was also in such a dilapidated situation, and she didn't dare to go back to her mother's house for help. He has been leading his two daughters to live outside. So Hu Xixi never went there, but when Hu's mother died, his uncle showed up to bury Hu's mother, and then talked about his grandmother, Fang knew that he was very sick and didn't dare to tell her about Hu's mother's death, which was still hidden.
"These relatives, you should go and look for them, they are your mother's relatives." Chen Tianyun said that he also has an uncle, but since his mother died, his uncle rarely came to the door, thinking that his father killed her, and hated this family to the core, and he has not come since he went abroad. To be honest, he was quite ashamed, his uncle loved him very much, and he didn't tell him all his life when he came back.
"Got it!" Hu Xixi almost wanted to cry, yes, she only remembered hating all these years, and she had forgotten her grandmother and uncle, if their life was good, it would be fine, but if it was bad, she didn't know how to face herself.
The school is located at the foot of Xichao Mountain, it was rebuilt a few years ago, it is novel and full of vitality, Hu Xixi remembers that it used to be just a few dilapidated teaching buildings, where is there such a style, it seems that over the years, the development of Xichao is also very great. But the economy has not been able to go up, and it is good to come back and develop, there are countless business opportunities here.
The doorman was an old man in his sixties, reading the newspaper with a pair of reading glasses, and when he heard the sound of the car, he raised his head to look at it, put down the newspaper and walked out of the guard's room, and asked solemnly: "Who are you?" ”
"Hello, I want to find the head teacher of Class 2 of the third year of high school, I am Hu Shengxing's sister." Hu Xixi said politely.
"You're Ah Xing's sister? When did Ah Xing have a sister? The doorman looked at Hu Xixi carefully, and suddenly shouted, "Are you Axi?" ”
Hu Xixi hurriedly fixed his eyes and couldn't help stammering: "You, aren't you the security captain Hu Erye?" Second master, are you working here like this? ”
"I'm retired, I've done security work all my life, so I'll take care of this group of children, you look for Ah Xing, okay, I'll call your head teacher, and I can let you in if he asks you to go up." After saying that, he immediately went back to the guard room to make a call, and came out after a while and said, "You go in, his head teacher is waiting for you in the academic affairs office." ”
"Thank you, Second Master!" Hu Xixi hurriedly thanked him, Chen Tianyun also nodded his head and thanked him, the iron door opened, Chen Tianyun drove the car straight in, and went up a slightly steep slope, and there was an arrow number plate pointing to the Academic Affairs Office. Chen Tianyun parked the car in the concrete field of the lawn, and the two got out of the car and walked up the stairs, there were many tall trees on the campus, and there were also a few heavy mango trees at the entrance of the Academic Affairs Office, which had grown very tall and full of tiny mangoes at the moment.
The campus is very clean, except for a few fallen leaves, there is almost no garbage, the ground has traces of cleaning, Chen Tianyun led Hu Xixi and walked straight away, stopped at the door of the academic affairs office, they knocked on the door, the door was opened, and the door was opened by Mr. Sven, who was in his forties, with a pair of black-framed glasses, with a bitter face, and he knew that he was Mr. Teaching at a glance. His face was a little stunned, as if he thought he would see two middle-aged people, after all, the doorman called and said that Ah Xing's parents came, so he thought it was his parents, and he happened to discuss some things with the principal in the academic affairs office, Hu Shengxing is the hope of the school, the principal also attaches great importance to it, his grades have always been among the best, in many competitions in the province, for the school to win glory and win awards, the school originally thought that he would apply for the domestic famous universities, but I didn't expect him to insist on applying for the city's universities, the school also respected, I only hope that he can get good results in the college entrance examination and compare with those famous middle schools.
But this honor student is absent from class today, did not ask for leave beforehand, you must know that now is the critical juncture of review, the teachers have been looking for the previous mock papers day and night, guessing the questions, eager to open the student's head and stuff the books in, such a critical juncture, except for sick leave, nothing can be missed in class.
"Who are you?" The teacher asked, pushing his glasses.
"I am Hu Shengxing's sister, we are here to find out about Hu Shengxing's situation, I heard Mayor Tong say that he did not go to school today." Hu Xixi explained his intentions directly.
"Mayor Tong?" The teacher was puzzled and asked, "How can Mayor Tong be?" What is his relationship with Ah Xing? ”
"Last night and today, he called the teacher, I asked him to ask about Ah Xing's current situation, teacher, can you go in and talk?"
A middle-aged woman in her forties listened to the conversation between the two, stood up and said, "Two parents, please come in, Teacher Mi, you also come in, let's talk." ”
"Okay, Headmaster." The teacher opened all the doors, and then stretched out his hand to invite the two in, Hu Xixi nodded to the principal, and the two sat on the sofa. The headmaster turned his chair to look at the two of them, she was wearing a black suit skirt, a pearl necklace around her neck, and a jade Guanyin hanging from her neck.
"The two are Ah Xing's relatives, Ah Xing didn't go to school today, we were trying to understand the situation, we called his house, it was a man who answered, I asked him and hung up the phone, I also wanted Teacher Mi to do a home visit after school." The headmaster was a little serious.
Teacher Mi continued: "In the morning, a man called the school to ask if Ah Xing had gone to school, I thought it was his father at the time, which one do you say is Mayor Tong?" Teacher Mi and the principal glanced at each other, a little stunned.
"Yes, I would like to ask, does Ah Xing have any visions at school lately? For example, does he have a problem with puppy love? Or is it a disagreement with some classmates? Chen Tianyun asked.
"I told the gentleman who called me yesterday about this matter, Ah Xing is very well-behaved at school, there is no such problem, it is true that some students in our school are more unself-loving, but they dare not touch Ah Xing, Ah Xing is very good at fists and feet, no one will take the initiative to provoke him. Besides, if there's anything, he'll tell me. Didn't he come home last night? Why did you come to the school to look for him? Teacher Mi asked suspiciously.
"He went to Mayor Tong last night to borrow money, a lot of money, 15,000, he didn't go to school today, I came back from the city, I didn't answer his phone, and I don't know where I went." Hu Xixi was a little anxious, what could it be if it wasn't the school's business? He is most anxious to get into college, why will he not go to school for something?
"This, it's a little strange for you to say, he has a high fever and has to go to school!" Teacher Mi was also a little anxious, stood up and looked at the principal, and the principal pressed his hand: "Sit down, don't be impatient!" ”
