Jiaxin walked into the alley alone, it was pitch black, there were no street lights, and there was no lighting equipment, she felt a little hairy in her heart, because when she came back all the way, she always felt that there was someone behind her. She quickened her pace, not looking to see if there was anyone behind her, turning into her own small alley, she quickened her pace!

opened the door and flashed in quickly, Jiaxin didn't enter the house immediately, but leaned on the door and listened for a while, confirming that no one was approaching, and then she entered the house with confidence!

In the second year of high school, the schoolwork is tight, Jiaxin feels that she is a little stressed, and she can still maintain her fame and fortune despite her hard work in other subjects, but she has a hard time learning English, but English is very important, and she can't take it lightly.

The English teacher has repeatedly emphasized the need to listen and read more, but she is barely able to make ends meet, and wants to buy a walkman to strengthen her English listening, but she is afraid that she can't do it yet.

After finishing her homework, Jiaxin was already sleepy. After checking the doors and windows, Jiaxin went to bed

When she got up early, Jiaxin felt that her eye bags were a little heavy. The thing about tracking before going to bed disturbed Jiaxin all night, and messy dreams came one after another, and she didn't sleep very well!

Out of the alley, Jiaxin saw Shao Cong's car from a distance, which was a black Santana. Old-fashioned, very ugly, but there are not many such cars in the entire county!

Shao Cong leaned on the car, his face was full of bright smiles, and the early morning sun poured down, bathing in his surroundings, as if he had been crossed with a layer of golden light, which was particularly dazzling! He waved at Jiaxin and motioned for her to come over.

Jiaxin hesitated, but still walked towards him!

Shao Cong opened the car door for her, but Jiaxin didn't plan to go up: "It's only two miles away from the school, and it won't take long to walk." ”

What an obvious refusal, Shao Cong nodded seriously, as if agreeing with Jiaxin's statement: "You're right, it's really not very far!" He closed the car door, then locked the car, and turned his head to look at Jiaxin: "Then let's go together!" ”

Jia Xin knew he did it on purpose. Ignore him, turn around and walk forward!

Shao Cong, as usual, followed behind her, step by step, not in a hurry, and said as he walked: "If you really deliberately alienate me like this for my good, then I tell you, I, like you, have never been afraid of any gossip." Even I can prove it for you. ”

Prove? Jia Xin shook her head, she couldn't say that Shao Cong's idea was very naïve, but Shao Cong was still too young, he didn't understand people's hearts, and he hadn't seen how vicious those with malicious intentions were!

"I still hope we can keep our distance!"

Today's first class is the English unit test, and the English subject is Jiaxin's biggest headache, especially the difficult listening part. She bites the pen and listens to the book of heaven, the answer is to fill in which one is pleasing to the eye, there is no basis at all!

Shao Cong is like a genius, a test paper, he finished it in no one class.

Because of Jiaxin's words in the morning, he didn't say a word to her all day, and after school, he left earlier than Jiaxin.

Before Jia Xin went to the barbershop, she went to the video store opposite the barbershop. She went to ask the price of the Walkman, she knew clearly what she wanted in this life, since she was going to take the university entrance examination, English can't be so confused, she had to make it up!

It's just that the price of the Walkman is very expensive, and she really can't afford it now!

Looking up at the wall, I remember that my sister said that the posters on the wall of the video store are very beautiful.

Three photos, all the same person, the well-known Japanese idol Takuya Kimura. The man on the poster has long hair and is sunny and handsome. In the eighties and nineties of the twentieth century, he was a smash hit and was recognized as a super male god in all of Asia. At that moment, Jia Xin actually remembered the situation when she cut Shao Cong's hair the night before, and slowly, Kimura's face coincided with Shao Cong!

"Hey, what do you want?" Jia Xin was slapped on the shoulder, Jia Xin was startled, and when she turned around, she saw her senior sister standing behind her!

"Why are you here!" Jiaxin asked.

"I saw you enter the video store from afar, and I didn't see you come out for a long time, this store is a little busy, there are three customers, and they want you to cut your hair by name!"

Hearing what her senior sister said, Jiaxin didn't dare to delay, she couldn't afford the walkman anyway, so it was better to go back and earn money quickly, so that she would be one step closer to her goal!

The three guests said that they were found by friends through introductions, and they were all in their early twenties, which was the age when they cared about their image very much. Jia Xin thought about it, and the introducer should be the man who cut his hair when he first came to the store!

Jiaxin works carefully and meticulously, and every hairstyle is required to be perfect.

In an hour, she only cut her hair three times!

Song gently saw that Jiaxin was a little tired today: "You have to go to school again now, and you have to come to work here again, you should be very tired!" ”

"No!" Jia Xin said, pulled a chair and sat opposite the master, and said again on the question that there was no result of the discussion yesterday: "Master, is there a lot of people in the store today?" ”

Song shook his head lightly with some embarrassment: "It's about the same as yesterday!" ”

"Master, you can't go on like this!" Jia Xin said seriously: "Sometimes people have to face the reality, now the barber industry is developing rapidly, if we don't keep pace with the times, always behind closed doors, then we will be eliminated by this industry!" In the past few years, Song Qingqing's barbershop may have been the signboard of this county, but in just a few years, we have already condescended to the back, and it is not difficult to admit that we are lagging behind, and we will learn if we are backward, and there is nothing. ”

Song Qingqing is not unaware of this truth, she is nearly twice as old as Jiaxin, and she has walked more bridges than Jiaxin. It's just that sometimes she doesn't have the courage to face reality!

"I learned to shave my head with my dad at the age of fifteen, and the razor cut my fingers more than once, and I never thought of giving up, because I loved this business, and then I learned from my master, I learned to use scissors, and I learned to use scissors, use clippers, and I was the first person who could burn my head in this county and in this industry!" Song lightly had tears in the corners of her eyes, and a smile on the corner of her mouth: "It took me nearly ten years to gain a firm foothold, but it's another trend!" I just want to stick to tradition, I don't want to cater to any trend! ”

Jia Xin pointed to the street and said: "Master, look, why are so many people wearing bell bottoms and tight tops all over the street now, not only because people have just transitioned from the era of black, white and gray to this era of bright colors, which is just fresh for a while, but because it is a trend, it is something that belongs to this era." It may not be long before such trends will be replaced by new ones, but they will not be forgotten! You are the same, you will not be wrong to keep pace with the times, your development is to follow the trend, and one day in the future, people in this county will mention the barber industry, and they will still not forget your place in the traditional barber industry! ”

Will it? Song asked himself gently. She didn't know the answer, everything was going too fast, beyond her imagination and expectations.

After Jiaxin finished studying with Song Qingqing, in every year in the future, she would go to further study to learn the trends and fashions of big cities, otherwise her small shop would not have stood tall for so many years.

"Don't worry, there are me and my sister in the store." Jia Xin continued to comfort the master: "This house is your own, even if there are only four or five businesses a day a month, we will not lose money, if you just blindly stay here, then you can only close the door in the end!" ”

Xu Xiaochen didn't speak, she heard Jiaxin say so much, and she agreed: "Go out and see Master Ma, don't worry about leaving it to me in the store!" When you come back with a new technique, I'll learn from you! ”

Song gently suddenly turned his head to look at Jiaxin and asked, "Your craftsmanship is very good, why don't you teach me!" ”

"This..."Jia Xin was a little stunned: "No, no, no, master, I can't do it, how can I be virtuous." ”

"I can pay you more!" Song added another sentence lightly!

Song Qingqing may not understand, this is not because of the salary.

In the previous life, Jiaxin was her apprentice, and the reversal of this life Jiaxin was unacceptable for a while, she wanted to help the master get out of the predicament, but due to the contrast of identity, she couldn't agree for a while!

Seeing that Jiaxin didn't agree, Song was a little disappointed, she said: "Since it's a trend, what does it have to do with who you learn?" In fact, I recently went to those newly opened stores, their craftsmanship is still far from yours, if you want to say the most trendy people, it should be in our store! Why should I go out and study! ”

These words made Jiaxin unable to refute for a while! Of course, she knew that her master's words were right, after all, she was a person of the twenty-first century, and the trend was far better than the present!

"But, master..."

"If you agree, it's decided, and I'll pay you for work every month, and it'll be my tuition!"

Song Xiaoqing didn't say what she would do if Jiaxin didn't want to, but it wasn't difficult for Jiaxin to guess that if she didn't want to, the master would not go out to study!

Forget it, since you want to repay the master's kindness, this is not a way!

"Alright then!" Jia Xin smiled.

Jia Xin looked at the old clock on the wall, the pendulum was swaying, and it was almost half past seven.

"That boy has been waiting outside!" Xu Xiaochen said to Jiaxin: "It's your classmate yesterday!" ”

Jiaxin was going to pack up her things and leave, but when she heard her sister say this, she stopped what she was doing, turned her head to look out, and waited on the dim road, Shao Cong was holding a book, and she was reading it with relish!

Jia Xin can't tell how she felt at that moment! She just turned her head and smiled at Xu Xiaochen and said, "In the video store opposite, the man on the poster on the wall is called Takuya Kimura, and he is a very popular male star!" ”

Seeing Jiaxin come out, Shao Cong hurriedly put away the books and put them in his schoolbag, crossed the road, and came to Jiaxin!

Without concealment, he said directly: "I'll send you back!" ”
