Chapter 154: The gap is obvious
Xinping finally chose to stay in the store and study while helping.
Jiaxin respected Xinping's opinion, and she also felt that this was very good and would not put too much pressure on Xinping.
It seems that everything is on track, and there are no thorny problems that need to be solved urgently, and Jia Xin's life has never stopped.
Sometimes she even wonders if such days are too comfortable, every day in the school store such a two-point and one-line shuttle back and forth, there are only a few people around her, and there are not too many things, studying, haircuts, counseling Xinping, and Xue Song and they are fighting, and time passes like this.
Of course, the happiest time of the month is when Xuemei pays her salary. Although I know that the rest of the people who are sent to you are my own, I am still looking forward to it.
Of course, when she is bored, Jiaxin will also miss Shao Cong, thinking about what she is doing at this time, whether she is working hard to write, or sweating on the basketball court with her classmates, or like her, she is also missing her.
Shao Cong strongly asked to write a letter to Jiaxin, saying that he would write it once a month, but until Shao Cong took the college entrance examination, Jiaxin did not receive his letter.
Jiaxin once again mentioned to Xue Song about her and Shao Cong.
Xue Song hated and scolded her: "I think you are stupid in school, stupid in earning money, and you are separated like this?" Don't you have a long memory with me? Are you still separated? You might as well just break up, how about now? People won't even write you a letter, and you're here looking for it now, and you didn't look for it yourself. Maybe there are other girls around them now. When the time comes, the two of them will hold hands and walk on the magnificent campus of Kyoto University, what else will happen to you? It's stupid. ”
"Shao Cong won't!" Jiaxin said firmly.
"You're not him, how do you know you won't!" Xue Song reasoned with the facts: "Men are all stealing, you have to be dike at this point, how many men in the world are there who don't steal?" What's more, your Shao Cong is still eighteen or nineteen years old, which is the age of blood and strength, do you think he can endure loneliness? Also, look at me, I didn't watch out for Sun Zhao at the time, but what did that grandson do, I don't need to say more, I also believed him 100% at the time, now that I think about it, I'm really... So, you must..."
Xue Song said so much, just hoping that Jiaxin could be sensible, but she seems to be too rational, how can the relationship between the two be decided by her alone? Still separated? It is estimated that to Shao Cong, this is no different from breaking up, so he didn't write to her for so long.
But Jiaxin completely denied Xue Song's statement, not that Xue Song was alarmist, maybe the kind of man in Xue Song's mouth did exist, just like Sun Zhao, ungrateful, unkind, ruthless and unrighteous. But Jiaxin is hard, Shao Cong won't, there is no reason, this is how to believe in him unconditionally.
As for writing a letter or not, it doesn't matter, maybe Shao Cong is too busy, maybe ...... There is no possibility at all.
****************
Time has come to mid-July in a blink of an eye, universities, primary and secondary schools have entered the mode of summer vacation, and the college entrance examination has ended, and Jiaxin has not returned to her hometown. Summer is the peak season for haircuts, and Jiaxin still chooses to stay to help everyone.
Like the winter vacation, Xuemei and Zishan returned to their hometown, and Xue Song stayed.
In Xue Song's words, if she also leaves, Jiaxin is estimated to go crazy, the accountant is gone, no one does the accounts, Zishan is gone, no one welcomes customers, if she leaves, the store is estimated to be closed.
Of course, these are all jokes, mainly because Xue Song thinks that he is also alone when he goes back, so it is interesting not to stay here.
In August, Jiaxin made a special call to Song.
In fact, Jiaxin has called back a lot in the past six months, but most of them are talking about work and exchanging the future development trend of the two stores. Xu Xiaochen said that the master has had a good life in the past six months, and her man has not done it again, but there is still abuse, and the control of the family's financial power is more obvious.
"Master, are you okay?" Jia Xin held the phone and carefully considered the words, she understood Song lightly too well, and if something was said, the master would refute her.
"It's good. You kid, I'm not in my seventies or eighties, why do I ask this question every time I call. Song smiled lightly and said, "It's you, you have such a big store to run in Kyoto alone, you can't eat or sleep well, you have to pay more attention to your body." ”
"I know, I'm fine!" Jia Xin said: "Master, Xiaoxing is about to be a sophomore in high school, how is his study?" ”
"This kid, how can you be so smart, I am already satisfied if I am admitted to an ordinary university." Song sighed softly: "In the future, I will have a job to support myself, and I will be blind even if I die." ”
"Master, what are you talking about, what are you not going to die?" Jiaxin was a little angry: "How many years younger are you than my mother?" ”
"But how can I have your mother's blessing! With such a good daughter as you. Song smiled softly: "Don't talk about me, aren't you going to come back this summer?" Don't look at your mother, don't look at Shao Cong? By the way, speaking of Shao Cong, he did quite well in the exam this year, I saw him a few days ago, early in the morning, I came early, and I saw him standing in front of the store for a long time. ”
"Really?" Jiaxin was a little sad, she could imagine Shao Cong's appearance, and then she would really look forward to it: "Master, did he say which university he applied for?" ”
"This... I didn't talk to him, and he left! But I think it's definitely the best university in Kyoto. Song Qingqing was also happy for Jiaxin: "It's okay now, you two can finally be in the same school, and you don't have to be separated." ”
"Master, then take care of your health, I will go back to see you when I have time."
Hanging up the phone, Jia Xin was stunned for a long time, her mind was full of Shao Cong's appearance, from knowing him to now, countless shadows of him overlapped. Jiaxin seemed to see Shao Cong smiling at her, it was his signature smile, pursed her lips, and then beckoned to her, and said loudly: "Jiaxin, I'm looking for you." ”
"Jiaxin..."Xue Song slapped Jiaxin on the shoulder: "The customer wants to perm his hair, you hurry up!" ”
Jiaxin came back to her senses, only to find that everyone in the store was looking at her.
"What's wrong?" Jiaxin asked Du Shen, who was closest to her.
"Nothing!" Du Shen turned around and continued to walk around the customer's head with scissors, and after a few seconds, he whispered, "It's just that his expression is a little sad." ”
Jia Xin didn't hear it.
For so long, this is the first time Du Shen has seen his boss with such an expression, distressed, remorseful, and sad... Of course, Du Shen is not stupid, he has always known that such a boss will only be like this for one person.
It's just that his heart is also very distressed. I feel sorry for Jiaxin, a girl who is obviously younger than him, but she has to bear so much. When will he be able to share some of the burden for her?
He never dared to ask if Jiaxin needed it.
***************
On August 25th, I want to say why I remember it so clearly, because it is the annual school season again, and the store is unexpectedly full, from morning to evening, Jia Xin is not idle, and I feel that my legs are not my own.
The same goes for Du Shen and the other barbers. From morning to night, Jia Xin permed five or six hairstyles, all of which were much more avant-garde than those in other stores.
Xuemei and Zishan didn't stay at home much during the summer vacation, because they knew that the store was busy, everyone came in less than twenty days at home, that day was the most complete day in the store, although at six o'clock in the afternoon, the business in the store was still very hot, and the manpower was a little tight, but Jiaxin still sent Xinping out to buy vegetables, and after a busy summer, Jiaxin planned to make a few more dishes at night to treat everyone. By the way, give out quarterly bonuses.
Xinping didn't disappoint Jiaxin, she bought a lot of vegetables, chicken, duck and fish. It's just that when I came back, I couldn't suppress the pleasure on my face.
Jiaxin asked in a low voice: "I picked up money on the road, why are you so happy?" ”
Xinping also leaned into Jiaxin's ear and whispered, "Sister, do you know? I came back from the vegetable market and took a closer look, the other barbershops were pitiful, some were simply none, the barbers were all squatting at the door, and then looking at our shop, the queue was lined up two miles away. ”
Jia Xin glared at Xinping funny: "Don't say that, you look proud." You're exaggerating, how many people are in the rest area, I don't know yet, and there is only one customer at each workstation, how can there be so many as you say. ”
"That's what I mean, in other stores, there is not even a ghost, you said they must not be jealous of us." The more Xinping said, the more excited she became: "If you want to say, they can't be jealous, this radius of ten miles, there is one family, which one has our scale, there are six barbers alone, the hairstyle is fashionable, the division of labor is clear, the service is in place, the price is reasonable, the child is not bullied, the environment is elegant, as long as it is a customer, it must want to come to a store like ours." ”
"All right!" Jiaxin motioned to Xinping to be quiet, so as not to let the customer hear: "Go, hurry upstairs to pick vegetables." ”
Xinping stuck out her tongue at Jiaxin and quickly slipped away.
In fact, Jiaxin has long known that the business in other stores is deserted.
Sometimes she will ask herself if she is a person who has been reborn in the 21st century, relying on new technologies, new ideas, and new trends to crush the business of other stores, whether it is her fault, but after thinking about it, Jiaxin has never been able to give herself an answer.
But many times, she doesn't feel that she is at fault, she is born again, but if she falls to her death at that time, who will sympathize with her and pity her?
What's more, haircutting is a skill, and she also wants to compete with a hundred schools of thought, as long as it is healthy competition, there is nothing bad, but until now, no studious people have come to her to learn new crafts.
It's just that Jiaxin faintly feels that if this continues, her store may not be peaceful.
