Chapter Twenty-Seven: Calling Home

After Shao Cong accompanied his parents back from his grandmother's house, he has been studying in the study! His uncle taught at the most famous financial university in the provincial capital, so when he was a freshman in high school, he asked his uncle to prepare university textbooks for him, and in the past two years, he has basically completed the university courses!

At the moment he was reading a book about finance when his mother knocked on the door and came in.

Shao Cong put down the book in his hand, looked up at his mother and asked, "Mom, is there something wrong?" ”

"Yuxue is here!" Mom stood in front of him: "She's downstairs, saying she wants to see you!" ”

"Then you let her come to the study!"

Less than three minutes after my mother turned around and went out, there was another knock on the study door. Without Shao Cong's permission, Chen Yuxue had already pushed open the door and came in!

"I'm afraid you're not here?" Chen Yuxue sat on a chair next to the desk very familiarly, then glanced at the book on the table, and asked with a smile: "What are you doing, studying again?" ”

"What are you looking for from me?" Shao Cong closed the book and put it on the shelf, he sat opposite Chen Yuxue, who was wearing a pale yellow dress with a smile on her face, as if she had something happy!

"The college entrance examination is coming soon, and there is less than half a month! I want you to relax with me, if you're okay in the afternoon, why don't you drive me to the south of the city for a ride? "What Chen Yuxue said is a matter of course!

"I have something to do in the afternoon!" Shao Cong's voice did not give Chen Yuxue a chance to refute.

As soon as Chen Yuxue heard Shao Cong say this, her face immediately turned ugly, what could he do, didn't all his current affairs revolve around that person named Lu Jiaxin?

"What's the matter? I'll go with you. ”

Shao Cong was a little unhappy, he looked at Chen Yuxue's eyes, and said word by word: "Yuxue, I think you should understand that jokes between adults never count, from childhood to adulthood, I only treat you as an ordinary friend, that's all!" ”

"Oh, okay, okay, how many times have you said this, I know!" Chen Yuxue pouted, obviously angry: "I'll go back first." Why don't you go find her...... It's all a mess......"

"What did you say?" Shao Cong didn't hear Chen Yuxue muttering something behind, but he knew who Chen Yuxue was talking about!

He really wanted to find Lu Jiaxin! Today and Sunday, he is going to make up for Lu Jiaxin's English, although yesterday he was not particularly sure whether he could pass today, but he still rushed back non-stop after having lunch at his grandmother's house!

******

Jiaxin had just come back from Wang Jing for a while, she was a little sleepy, and when she was half asleep, she heard someone knocking on the door, thinking that it was someone from the neighborhood committee again, but she didn't expect it to be Shao Cong!

Seeing that Jiaxin was still a little confused, Shao Cong was a little embarrassed: "Did you disturb your nap?" ”

"Didn't you say you won't make up classes today?"

"I'm back anyway!" Shao Cong followed behind Lu Jiaxin and found that Jiaxin's mood was a little wrong, so he cautiously asked, "What's wrong, is there something wrong?" ”

"The people from the neighborhood committee talked to me in the morning!" Jiaxin smiled bitterly: "Saying that I have a bad style of life, many parents jointly asked to move out of Tianxing Hutong!" ”

Shao Cong was stunned: "What? They let you move out? ”

"Don't make a fuss, I'm not that easy to bully!" Jia Xin raised her head, glanced at Shao Cong, and continued: "The words on this door and those rumors, I think I probably know who did it. ”

"You found it?"

*******

Accompanied by Shao Cong, Jiaxin once again came to Director He! Seeing Jiaxin take the initiative to come, this was quite unexpected by Director He!

"Little girl, we are investigating your affairs, I believe there will be results soon, and we will notify you when the time comes!" Director He looked disdainful when he said this, and even with a kind of firm confidence!

Jia Xin wondered if there was a change in this morning?

In fact, the people sent by Director He didn't find anything, and it has been several days since the incident, and the source of the gossip has long been blurred. As for the words on the door, it is even more of a headache, it has been covered with new paint, and nothing can be seen!

She had to find another way.

"This matter should have been my own private matter, but since someone reported it and it was jointly signed by many parents, then this matter can be big or small." Jia Xin stood in front of Director He, looked up at this woman in her forties and said, "Director He, as the leader of the neighborhood committee, I believe you will definitely understand clearly and will not wronged me as a seventeen-year-old child!" ”

"Of course!"

Coming out of the neighborhood committee, Shao Cong was a little puzzled, he thought that Jiaxin had won the game, and he went to the neighborhood committee to explain the situation. But she didn't do anything!

"Didn't you say you had found out who it was?" Shao Cong was full of suspicions.

"I always felt that something was wrong!" Jia Xin couldn't figure it out, although Director He's attitude towards her in the morning was not friendly, but she was not as arrogant as in the afternoon: "If I can't figure out Director He's intentions, even if I tell who the person who sprayed on my door is, I can't prove my innocence, and most people will have preconceived ideas that I am that kind of person." Maybe they will applaud the person who sprays the words, and they won't give me half of sympathy! ”

Jiaxin told herself to calm down, think twice before acting, plan before acting! But now she has no favorable evidence to prove herself except for her high suspicion that her neighbor Wang Jing is involved in this matter!

"Do you want my help?" Shao Cong still followed behind Jia Xin, a few steps away.

"Thanks, but not yet!"

After making up for Jiaxin's English class for nearly an hour, Shao Cong went back.

Maybe when people are most confused and vulnerable, they will think of their families, although Jiaxin's relationship with her father has deteriorated, but there is still a mother at home, although she has never been back for so long, and she has never made a phone call, but she has never let go of Mu Chunhua in her heart!

A few days ago, Jiaxin happened to hear Shao Cong mention that her aunt's house had installed a phone, and she asked for a number by the way.

She found a phone booth and dialed the number she knew by heart.

As expected, it was the aunt who answered the phone, probably because she was unable to move, and the phone rang for a long time before it was connected: "Hey..."

"Auntie? I'm Jia Xin! "Hearing the voice of the aunt, it is a kind of kindness that has not been seen for a long time.

"Jiaxin?" Jiaxin called, and the aunt was obviously surprised: "If you can call, the aunt will be relieved!" ”

"Auntie, what's wrong?" Jiaxin also became worried.

"I saw a few people today, like people from the city, looking for your grandmother. I think about it, your grandmother's family doesn't have any relatives in the city who often come and go, only you go to school in the city! Do you think something happened to you? ”

Someone from the city went to find grandma? Jiaxin's body is a little stiff, there is no need to analyze it carefully, and it is not difficult for Jiaxin to guess, those people are afraid that they are from the neighborhood committee! But how could it be, Jiaxin couldn't figure it out again...

"Jiaxin, you're studying in the city, are you okay?"

"I'm fine!" Jiaxin hurriedly replied: "Auntie, how are you!" ”

"That's it, the immortal will die!" Auntie smiled wryly on the other end of the phone.

Jiaxin didn't know what to say, hesitated, and asked, "Is my mother okay?" ”

"What's so good about rural people, now is the time to go to the ground, your mother soaks in the ground every day!" The aunt sighed, Xu thought of herself, and she couldn't help but sigh: "But speaking of which, she always has a good body, unlike me." ”

"Auntie, don't think about it, birth, old age, sickness and death are what everyone has to experience, it's just that some people are earlier, and some people are later!" Jia Xin is really not very comforting.

The aunt also felt that it was not good to say something frustrating, so she changed the conversation and asked, "Are you looking for your mother?" She should be down to the ground again now, and when she comes back in the evening, I will ask your uncle to find him, you make an appointment, and then call again! ”

Forget it, Jiaxin thought, as long as her mother is fine.

"No need, Auntie! I'm quite far from the phone booth! I'll call her again when I have time. Don't tell her I called, so she doesn't worry! After a few more casual chats, Jiaxin hung up the phone.

In the next few days, the people in the neighborhood committee stopped and did not come to Jiaxin again. Even Wang Jing next door seemed to have disappeared, and she hadn't appeared for several days, and even those gossips gradually faded away.

Everything seems to be quiet, only Jiaxin knows in her heart that this is just an appearance, and a premeditated plan against her has been quietly staged!

After school on Saturday, Jiaxin specially asked to go with Shao Cong, saying that he would help if there was something. All along, Jiaxin has been shy about letting Shao Cong help her, but now, she has to ask for help, and sure enough, people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads!

The barbershop is a little busy today, Song Qingqing and Xu Xiaochen are busy on all fours, but they are still lacking in skills, and several guests are waiting boredly! Seeing Jiaxin come in, the master and apprentice breathed a sigh of relief.

"Jiaxin, you are here, hurry up..."The master pointed to the waiting guests and said, "Those guests are your old customers, just waiting for you!" ”

Jiaxin hurriedly put down her schoolbag and threw herself into work! In fact, at this time, Jia Xin was already well-known in the barber industry, and among her peers, who didn't know that there was a strange person in Song Qingqing's barbershop, who was young and skilled, which not only brought Song Qingqing's barber shop back to life, but also attracted most of their customers.

After cutting the hair of a few old customers, it was already two hours later, the weather was hot, Jiaxin's mouth was dry, the senior sister was very considerate, the customer just left, she brought Jiaxin the boiled water that had been cooled!

Jia Xin smiled and said thank you, and just about to drink water, she saw a few people walking towards the barbershop, and the one who walked in front was in a hurry, as if there was something urgent!

Who else could it be if it wasn't Director He?
