Chapter 83 The mother who can’t be found
He Huijiao never contacted her daughter Yaoyao. Money came in from that card every month, three thousand a month. For a high school student at that time, this was a lot of money, and Yaoyao couldn't use it all. .

She saved everything, and during the summer vacation of her sophomore year of high school, she went to Hangzhou.

Yaoyao likes painting very much. She is preparing to take the art exam. In a small place like Poyang, there are no good art training institutions.Yaoyao ran to Hangzhou and signed up for a training institution set up by Gome. Here, in addition to improving her painting skills, she could also learn a lot of information and tips on applying for Gome.

In the first half of her senior year of high school, Yaoyao spent the whole semester studying painting in Hangzhou. Only in the second half of the semester, she felt that she was more confident in her professional courses, so she returned to the school where she attended to take up cultural classes.

Yaoyao came to Hangzhou to study and was preparing to apply for the National American Examination. The big reason was that she checked the bank card and found that her mother deposited money for her every month from the Agricultural Bank of China in different areas of Hangzhou. Money, she believed that her mother was in Hangzhou.While studying, she also has to go to Hangzhou to find her mother.

After graduating from high school, Yaoyao got her wish and was admitted to the animation art major of the National Academy of Film, Television and Animation Arts.

Her mother seemed to have been watching her and knew that she would definitely be able to go to college. The summer after she graduated from high school, her mother deposited tuition fees into her card and doubled her living expenses, saving 6000 for her every month. Yuan, this is because she knows that she is going to college and the expenses will be high.

Every semester will be the same. Yaoyao will definitely receive the tuition from her mother before she starts school.She asked all her relatives who might know her mother's whereabouts, but was disappointed. They told her that no, her mother had not contacted them. They didn't know where she was, and they couldn't tell her that Yaoyao was admitted to university. thing.

Mom pays Yaoyao living expenses every month between the [-]th and [-]th, never earlier than the [-]th and never later than the [-]th.

Yaoyao listed the banks that sent her money. These bank branches were not fixed and there was no pattern to follow.But Yaoyao discovered a characteristic. These outlets are either in tourist spots such as Manjuelong, Lingyin and Meijiawu, or near high-end shopping malls such as Hangcheng Tower, West Lake Yintai, etc.

Yaoyao can only use the stupidest method, that is, between the [-]th and [-]th of every month, as long as she has time, she will take her iPad to banks in these places and sit in the lobby of the bank, hoping I can see my mother appear.

But every time, she set out with full hope and came back with confusion and loss in her eyes.

Once, Yaoyao was sitting in the lobby of the Agricultural Bank of China next to Wulin Square. After sitting for a while, she went to the teller machine nearby to swipe her card to see if the money had come in.

When she went to swipe the card for the sixth or seventh time that day, she found that money had come in. Yaoyao took the card and ran to the counter to check, and found that it was not far from Wulin Square, at the intersection of Stadium Road and Huancheng West Road. I called from the Agricultural Bank of China at that intersection.

Yaoyao quickly ran out of the bank, got on a shared bicycle at the door and rushed there. It only took her six or seven minutes to get there. Yaoyao searched inside and outside the bank several times, but her mother was nowhere to be seen.Yaoyao sat on the steps in front of the bank and burst into tears.

When Yaoyao was young, her mother told her many things about her past work at the Meicheng Knitting Factory. Yaoyao knew that when her mother was in Meicheng, she also gave birth to a brother. Because this brother was a superborn, he was given away after he was born. People.

I don’t know if she misses this brother, or for her mother, the time she spent at Meicheng Knitting Factory should be her happiest time. Every time Yaoyao hears her mother talk about Meicheng and Meicheng Knitting Factory, her tone of voice changes. They are all tendentious, with a very fascinating tone.

Yaoyao didn’t know how many times she had been to Meicheng. Whether she was going to school or working later, on her days off, Yaoyao would go to Meicheng and walk around the school where Meicheng Knitting Factory was originally located to see where her mother used to work. The old city hall, the warehouse of Meicheng Knitting Factory.

Yaoyao often goes to Meicheng, and she also longs for it. Hangcheng is so close to Meicheng. Will her mother go back to Meicheng to revisit her old place? If so, she can meet her mother in Meicheng.

Although her hopes failed every time, it has become Yaoyao's habit to look for her mother every month.She felt that the most important thing to her was to find her mother, and anything else did not matter to her.

Even if a boy shows affection to her or a colleague intentionally gets close to her, she treats it as nothing.From school to the workplace, other people felt that Yaoyao's personality was a bit strange and difficult to get close to. More people called this aloofness.

Fang Yan couldn't help but laugh when Yaoyao mentioned the word "cold". He said:

"When I first saw you, I also thought you were cold and cold. Xiao Yu also told me that if you are cold in front of you, be careful of hitting the wall."

Yaoyao looked at Fang Yan and asked, "Why, have you ever thought about having sex with me?" Fang Yan quickly said, "No, it's just that when I saw you, I felt like I knew you before, and I had the desire to get close to you. I have no evil thoughts."

Yaoyao nodded: "Actually, I did too. When we were having dinner that night, Xiaoyu asked us to add WeChat, but I didn't agree. In fact, after saying those words, I regretted it a little, but I only regretted it for a while. I didn't agree with this. I really have no interest. My WeChat friends total no more than thirty, and they are all work partners, so I had to add them.

"I have even withdrawn from my original high school and college classmates, and blacklisted all my classmates."

"Why?" Fang Yan asked, "You are not cold, but withdrawn."

"Yes, I'm just lonely. I even go to the movies alone. I also like someone when I go out to eat. I don't want to have a companion." Yaoyao agreed, "I don't know why, but I just did that. The thing I am most focused on is finding my mother, and I feel a little bored when I see the other things and don’t want to be distracted by them.”

Fang Yan sighed: "You are paranoid."

Yaoyao pouted: "I'm just paranoid."

When the two of them were saying these words, they were no longer in Aunt Yu's room. Instead, they walked to the door of the villa and sat on the steps of the door, looking at the garden in front of the door.

Fang Yan asked: "To this day, is your mother still giving you money every month?"

Yaoyao shook her head: "No, by the time I was a senior, it was May or June. Anyway, it was the month when the summer vacation was about to start. My mother didn't give me any money. By the time I got to NO.20, I still didn't have any money. Later, I I try to brush it every day, but there is no result.

"I swiped my card every day, not because I needed the money in the card. I had already saved a lot of money at that time, and I serialized comics online every month. The royalties were enough to support myself. I was not short of money. Money is the only umbilical cord connecting my mother and me. She no longer sends me money, just like a kite has broken its string, and there is no connection between us."

Fang Yan calculated in his mind that when He Huijiao stopped sending money to Yaoyao, it was almost the time to leave here.Fang Yan did not tell Yaoyao this.

Yaoyao said: "My mother didn't give me any money, so I was even more worried and wanted to find her. I was worried that she was sick or had no income. She has given me all the money over the years. I am It’s not like everyone has no money.”

Fang Yan stretched out his hand, held Yaoyao's hand, and said to her, "No, don't worry."

Yaoyao turned to look at him and asked, "How do you know?"

Of course Fang Yan knew, he knew that Fang Guofei was not a stingy person, and the salary he paid Aunt Yu would definitely not be low.In addition, Aunt Yu has almost no expenses here, and Xu Ailian will definitely give her additional money.With her income, she can raise Yaoyao and pay Yaoyao's tuition, and she will still have savings.

Fang Yan felt that there was always something he hadn't figured out yet. He couldn't talk to Yaoyao until he figured it out. Fang Yan said:
"I just know, I know how much she earns here."

"Okay." Yaoyao nodded, "But didn't you say that it has been more than four years since my mother left here? What income will she have after leaving? She is so old and has a low level of education. What can she find? Good job? Let me tell you, when I first arrived in Hangzhou, when I saw a street sweeper, as long as the back looked a little like my mother, my heartbeat would speed up and I would not dare to look at him.

"I was really worried that it would be my mum sweeping the streets and giving me all her wages, I really would have thought that."
