Chapter 15 Who Is Quietly Changing (2)
The three of them walked together, and within a short distance, they arrived at the place Fang Jiwan had mentioned.There is a well-repaired small gazebo with a stone table and several stone bars inside.Xu Heyin When passing by on his way to school every morning, some old people would gather here to sing ditties.At noon, there are almost no people here.Fang Jiwan spread the newspaper on the stone table, then took out a pair of scissors from the bag, and cut carefully according to the traces drawn on the newspaper.

"I used to practice like this when I was learning from the master. But at that time it was more convenient to have plastic models, and you could also make three-dimensional ones. Now I just practice, mainly because I am afraid that I will not do it myself." After a while, pieces of old The paper pattern cut from the newspaper appeared.

"Ah, I can see it. This one is the front and that one is the back!" Zhou Jingyou couldn't help but took one and tried it on himself, "Yeah, it's a bit big."

"Of course, I made it according to my own proportions! If you want, I can also make it according to your size." Fang Jiwan touched his pocket and said, "Ah, I didn't bring a measuring ruler, why don't you take the Give me the school uniform jacket as a reference."

Zhou Jingyou took off his coat and handed it to Fang Jiwan, and then told Xu Heyin that he wanted to see Fang Jiwan's tailoring, so he could visit her rented house next time.Xu Heyin nodded, and simply let them wait for her while chatting, while she turned directly into the next neighborhood.As she walked, she heard footsteps behind her.Looking back curiously, a woman wearing a sunhat was walking behind her not far away.

It should be the nearby residents who take a walk after dinner!
Xu Heyin didn't pay much attention, but the footsteps behind were still there when he went upstairs.Xu Heyin couldn't help but looked back again, it was still that woman.This time, she also looked up at Xu Heyin.

Xu Heyin suddenly felt that the woman looked familiar, could she be a neighbor living in this building?However, when Xu Heyin arrived at the door of the house and wanted to enter the house, the woman actually followed her, but kept a distance of more than ten steps from her.After seeing Xu Heyin enter the room, she stretched her neck to look around.After Xu Heyin closed the door and listened, the woman seemed to pause for a while before going downstairs.

"Could it be the wrong way?" Xu Heyin said to himself.

Not wanting to keep Zhou Jingyou and Fang Jiwan waiting too long, she found the cold medicine and hurried out.When he got back there, Zhou Jingyou was already standing there in a vest cut out of newspapers, talking to Fang Jiwan. Seeing Xu Heyin came back, Zhou Jingyou waved with a smile, signaling her to come over quickly.

"What are you laughing at?" Xu Heyin stuffed a box of cold medicine into Zhou Jingyou's hand, "I felt so uncomfortable just now, but now I'm fine again?"

"Xu Heyin, don't you think Fang Jiwan's work is very interesting!" Zhou Jingyou walked around in front of Xu Heyin wearing newspaper clothes strung together with pins and said, "I never thought that Fang Jiwan's hands would be like this!" skillful."

"What a coincidence, I just want to do my best to do what I can do." Fang Jiwan scratched the back of his head and said, "Who made me only do this?"

"I told Fang Jiwan just now that we are going to do outreach activities, and it turns out that he will go too." Zhou Jingyou's newspaper clothes are just the right size, and she doesn't seem to want to take them off, but Fang Jiwan is embarrassed to urge With Zhou Jingyou replaced.

"It's because an old school worker is on vacation and asked me to do it temporarily. But I don't participate, I just help the logistics to buy some water and move things." Fang Jiwan saw that the lunch break was running out, put away the tools and said, "Fortunately, I didn't go climbing, otherwise I would have to buy a pair of shoes!"

"Yes, I need to prepare a pair of comfortable sneakers. How about you, Xu Heyin? What should you wear?" Zhou Jingyou suddenly became more talkative, "Ah, the second-hand bookstore that Fang Jiwan mentioned just now is very special. We will have a look at it when we have time. Go see it too."

The three walked back while talking.When Zhou Jingyou stopped to tie his shoelaces, Xu Heyin seemed to have discovered the strange woman just now by accident, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared again.

Just halfway through the afternoon class, Xu Heyin was busy writing notes when his phone suddenly started vibrating.She knew that usually at this time only Bu Zidu, the guy with a lot of temporary situations, would call.Therefore, Xu Heyin didn't even look at it and let it go.

However, half an hour later, a familiar figure suddenly appeared at the door of the classroom.

"Xu Heyin, Xu Heyin."

Hearing the cry, Xu Heyin looked up, and it was his mother standing at the door.

Mom looked anxiously into the classroom, and her hand holding the car keys was shaking slightly.

"Mom, why are you here?" Seeing the flustered expression on her mother's face, Xu Heyin suddenly thought of similar scenes in movies she had seen before, and was startled. Could it be that something happened to her father?

"Heyin, where's your cell phone? Why didn't you answer the phone?" Seeing that she was well-behaved, her mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but she still reprimanded her, "I called you several times, but you didn't respond, you scared my mother to death. I thought something really happened to you!"

"What could happen to me? It's not that you said not to be disturbed by your mobile phone during class, so I turned it on to vibrate, and I didn't pay attention just now." Xu Heyin felt that she was making a fuss out of a molehill, and what was even more abnormal was that she would not be in class during class time. The mother who was looking for her actually blamed herself for not answering her mobile phone during class.

"Did something happen at home?" Xu Heyin asked tentatively.

"Oh, no, nothing?" This time it was Mom's turn to falter, "You, did you encounter any strange things or people today?"

Xu Heyin immediately thought of that strange woman, but she was not sure whether it was related to her mother's abnormality, so she shook her head.After the class bell rang, my mother seemed to realize her gaffe, and said in a slow tone: "You go to class well, and I will pick you up after evening self-study!"

Looking at her mother's complicated eyes, Xu Heyin vaguely felt that her mother must have something to hide from herself.

After school in the evening, my mother really came to pick her up.

On the way back, she looked around, took big steps, and held Xu Heyin's hand tightly, as if something dangerous was chasing them behind.

"Mom, slow down." Xu Heyin, who was carrying a heavy schoolbag, said out of breath.

"Go back quickly, hurry up and finish your homework, and go to bed early." Mom explained.

Xu Heyin did sleep late these days.It's past twelve o'clock, and the body is also very tired, but I just can't sleep. For a while, I think about how far I have reviewed today and guess which knowledge points the teacher will test tomorrow, and for a while, I think about what Ying Yuan and other students in college are doing , Occasionally wondered whether her father had returned home after dinner. Of course, the location of the moon gate described in the mysterious letter also deeply troubled her.

When they stood at the door of their house and were about to open the door, the neighbors opened the door and stopped them.

"I got your express delivery in the evening. After knocking on the door for a long time, I signed for it." The hostess said as she handed over a cardboard box the size of a drawer.

"Did you buy something?" After thanking the neighbor, the mother walked into the house and closed the door to ask Xu Heyin.

"No! Isn't the item from the big purchase last time still in use? Hey, I don't know the shipping address!" Xu Heyin looked through it curiously, "I don't know what it is, maybe it was bought by Dad as a gift mine?"

This sentence seemed to remind Ai Berry.She stopped changing her shoes and rushed over to check the address carefully.However, when she was watching, Xu Heyin had already opened the outer box.It turned out to be a brand new pair of sneakers, or a famous brand!

"Wow, that's awesome." Xu Heyin exclaimed excitedly.

"Don't move." Mom sternly yelled, scaring Xu Heyin who was reaching for the shoes.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Xu Heyin asked back.

Mother's face changed drastically, and her lips trembled and said: "I can't have these shoes, I can't keep them here." After finishing speaking, she grabbed the shoes and was about to throw them out.

"Mom, mom." Xu Heyin pulled her mother, but she pushed her away, and her shoes fell to the ground.

"How can this be? You actually want to buy my daughter with something, it's a dream!" The mother stomped on the shoe angrily, and a clear shoe print immediately appeared on the clean surface.

If it wasn't from Dad, then the only person who knows the address here is Buzidu.Xu Heyin suddenly realized.The last time I gave Bu Zidu a pair of shoes, was he reciprocating courtesy?Yes, it must be.Two days ago, he heard that he had some outdoor activities and said he would help her as a staff member!Could it be... this is it?

Looking at the pair of ravaged shoes, Xu Heyin felt a little distressed, she didn't want to waste Bu Zidu's kindness.

"Mom, don't step on it." Xu Heyin finally pulled the emotional mother aside and said, "If you are not happy, I will not."

"Do you like these shoes?"

"I……"

"Mom will buy you some more in the future, but this pair of shoes is the only one you can't have. I'm going to throw them away."

Mom nervously wanted to go downstairs.

"Mom, let me throw it away." Xu Heyin grabbed the shoe and went downstairs.

In fact, she wanted to hide the shoes. Of course, this time she couldn't hide them in the mailbox like last time.How about a hidden spot in the garden?Will it be picked up by others?Just as Xu Heyin was wandering downstairs, he saw a person sitting on the stone chair.Hey?Isn't this Buzidu?Sure enough, he sent the shoes.He is waiting for his reply here.

"Hey, I see you."

Xu Heyin's sudden appearance in front of Bu Zidu startled him.He clearly saw that Xu Heyin and her mother had already gone upstairs together.

"Of course you can see me. I'm not an invisible person." Bu Zidu said angrily, "Huh, why are you out for a walk so late?"

"It's not thanks to you! Did you express a pair of shoes to me?" Xu Heyin stuffed the shoe box into Buzidu's arms, "It would be nice to just give it to me. Now that my mother finds out, I want it It's too late."

"Shoes? Why another pair of shoes?" Bu Zidu smiled wryly.He is sitting here and has nothing to do with Xu Heyin, he is waiting for his friend Xiaoquan.Last time I went to see that person with Xiaoquan but I didn't see him, I hope this time I can get my wish.

"I have to ask you this, even if I give you a pair of shoes, you can be creative and give something else!" Xu Heyin complained, "I still use express delivery, so suddenly, it made my mother lose her temper." !"

"Hey, can't others give you gifts?" Bu Zidu asked strangely.

"Brother Abu." Xiaoquan, holding a helmet in his hand, came from the gate of the community and interrupted their conversation.He was taken aback when he saw Xu Heyin.

"Okay, my friend is here, so I'm leaving first. Since you gave me the shoes, I'll put them away first." Bu Zidu didn't explain, holding the shoe box and pulling Xiao Quan away out.

"That's the girl who lives in your house!" Xiaoquan said with a smile, "Although she's not pretty, she's pretty cute."

"How's business going?" Bu Zidu didn't want to talk too much about Xu Heyin, so he asked with a straight face, "Where's the person?"

"Outside! After dinner with him, I pretended to stop by to see my friend, but I didn't say you wanted to see him!" Xiaoquan and Bu Zidu walked to the street outside the community, and there was a young man in his early 20s leaning on his motorcycle Smoking next to the car.Hearing the sound of footsteps, he glanced this way, and saw the impatient expression on the face of Xiao Quan who was walking towards him.
