Chapter 25 Inquiry
The next morning, after Xiao Fan got up, he dialed the number again, and as always, the number still didn't get through.
Although I don't know why, this number should never be dialed again, Xiao Fan decisively threw it in the trash.
Who is that man? Why her eyes are so familiar seems to be a little fascinating.
What the hell is this, what are you thinking, Xiao Fan stopped his thoughts and continued to think. In broad daylight, I didn't do anything about business, but I remembered it in a hurry.
Xiao Fan came to the noodle stall at the entrance of the village again, and asked the proprietress for a bowl of vegetarian noodle soup, and ate it with relish and rap the aftertaste.
Then at this time, a girl came from a distance, and the girl came over with a bowl of noodles, but she was not polite at all, and sat down next to Xiao Fan.
"Hey! Morning! ”
Xiao Fan looked up and saw that it was the girl who knocked on his door last night.
"Early."
"Why are you depressed early in the morning, and you have something on your mind?" Xin Xiaoqi didn't know if it was intentional, she continued, "Still thinking about that girl?" By the way, gave your contact information, did you call? ”
Xin Xiaoqi seemed to be very interested, and was staring at Xiao Fan with two big eyes, waiting for Xiao Fan's answer.
"No, I threw the note, it seems to be an empty number, no one answered." Xiao Fan said.
"Threw ......"
Xiao Fan remembered that there seemed to be more than one number on the note, so he hurriedly said: "Ah, it's still in my trash can, if you want it, I'll pick it up for you later." ”
Xin Xiaoqi shook his head and waved his hand. "Forget it, it doesn't matter, throw it away. What did you say? Empty number? How can it be? Xin Xiaoqi felt a little strange, how could it be an empty number?!
Xiao Fan also spread his hands, "That's the way things are, I can't help but believe it." ”
"How many times have you called?"
"Three times." Xiao Fan stretched out his finger and said, "Two times last night, once this morning." ”
"So you gave up?"
"Well, if you don't give up, you can't do it, you're too lazy to fight. Forget it, it's considered to be the wrong person, and maybe I really made a mistake. Xiao Fan suddenly changed into a calm and breezy appearance, which seemed to be able to comfort himself a few times.
"Gotta gotcha, no matter what you do. Just admit that you are mistaken. Xin Xiaoqi didn't bother to fight on this issue anymore. It was none of her business, and she didn't need to ask.
"By the way, you're a local? Why don't I remember you in this village? Xin Xiaoqi looked at Xiao Fan and looked at his face carefully, "No matter how long you change, it won't change so much, it seems, it seems that I really don't know you." ”
Xiao Fan said: "You really don't know me, I'm not from here at all, your intuition is right." ”
"Oh, I thought I was face blind."
"Why do you want to come to this village? Is there a problem with asking this question? ”
"There's nothing wrong with it."
"Then you say!"
"Listen to me slowly."
"Tell me a ghost." Xin Xiaoqi raised his chopsticks and was about to hit Xiao Fan's head.
So Xiao Fan told her all the purpose of his coming.
"So you come to this place, you don't know what you're looking for, do you?"
"Let's just put it that way." Xiao Fan replied.
"I don't seem to have any impression of those people you said."
"Normal, how old are you this year?" Xiao Fan asked.
"Twenty-two."
"That's it, you were young at the time, and a few of them moved away a long time ago, so it's understandable that you don't know."
"And how old are you?" Xin Xiaoqi suddenly asked rhetorically.
"Twenty-seven."
"I'll help you ask."
"What?"
"Of course it's your business, aren't you looking for their family history!?"
"Okay, I'm sorry for you."
"It's fine."
So Xiao Fan went with Xin Xiaoqi to ask the people in the village who knew about it.
Xin Xiaoqi is a native of this village, but she hasn't walked around the village much since she was a child, and she has almost been studying in other places all these years, so she doesn't know what has happened in the village over the years, but nothing big has happened.
Xin Xiaoqi took Xiao Fan to a respected elder, who was Xin Xiaoqi's second grandfather, her grandfather's brother. Although the seniority is already a little far away, this is in the village, and the people in the village are close, even if it is Xin Xiaoqi's second grandfather, they often move around. Every New Year's holiday, Xin Xiaoqi will go to see the second grandfather, cheer for homely things, accompany the old man or something.
Xin Xiaoqi's second grandfather lived alone in an old house, the outer walls of the old house had begun to peel off, and the eaves had turned black, and the house had been in this house for a long time. When they came to visit him, the second grandfather happened to be sitting on a bench basking in the sun, and a chubby yellow cat was squatting next to him. The second grandfather has gray hair and a gray beard, and he looks very old, and he should be in his seventies if he is not eighty. The second grandfather was smoking an old dry tobacco bar, looking up at the sky from time to time, although he didn't know what he was looking at.
The yellow cat noticed Xiao Fan's arrival before the old man, and it raised its furry sleek head and looked at the visitor with some alarm. But when he saw that it was Xin Xiaoqi, his nerves obviously relaxed, and it seemed that he knew Xin Xiaoqi. Yellow cat with a good memory.
"Second grandfather!" Xin Xiaoqi shouted from afar, "I'm back, second grandfather." ”
Her second grandfather turned his head to look into the distance, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. "Is Xiaoqi back?"
Xiaoqi arrived in three steps and two steps, and held her second grandfather's hand, and said, "Yes, I'm back." ”
"I'm so glad you're back! Come, sit down and speak. Her second grandfather also held his granddaughter's hand, and was really very happy, as could be seen from his face.
The yellow cat had already jumped off the stool in amusement, and did not know where to go.
"Wait." Xin Xiaoqi suddenly said, "I forgot to introduce you to someone." Xin Xiaoqi immediately let Xiao Fan's figure out.
"Who is this?" The second grandfather was stunned for half a second, and then said with a smile, "I know, this must be your boyfriend, right?!" Hehe, I guessed correctly, Xiao Qi actually brought his boyfriend back to me, she is really my good granddaughter. ”
Xiao Fan was a little stunned after hearing this, this ...... This...... Isn't the misunderstanding a bit big......
Xin Xiaoqi only glanced at Xiao Fan, and then explained: "You are mistaken, I haven't explained yet, ahhh......h I haven't introduced it yet, this is a foreigner who has just come to our village, and I see that he seems to have some old things to know, so I brought him to see you without permission, don't talk nonsense. ”
