Ji Zixuan and Yang Jingyi had already eaten, and there were only four of them at the dinner table.
Fang Xinyi had no appetite, but she still tried her best to eat up all the rice in the bowl.
After eating, Hu Chunli looked at the clock on the wall, it was almost time for school.
"Xinyi, do you know the phone number of where your mother works? Let's call your mother and ask her to come back?" Ji Yuanyuan took Fang Xinyi's hand and asked tentatively.
Fang Xinyi heard the words, nodded vigorously and said, "Okay."
It's a simple word, but it's a bit more phlegmatic when I say it.
Li Xu also looked up at the time, and then discussed with Hu Chunli: "Send the children to school, I'll take Xinyi outside to make a phone call."
Hu Chunli nodded: "Okay, so be it!"
Li Xu urged Ji Yuanyuan and the three of them: "Hurry up, pack up and follow your Aunt Hu to school."
Hearing this, Fang Xinyi looked at Ji Yuanyuan in a panic.
Ji Yuanyuan comforted in a low voice: "It's okay, don't worry, my mother won't send you home until your mother comes back."
Yang Jingyi also stepped forward: "Yeah Xinyi, if your mother can't come back today, you will sleep in my house at night. There are several rooms in my house!"
After being comforted by the two, Fang Xinyi's expression became much more relaxed.
"Okay, okay, hurry up." Li Xu urged.
They went out together, but parted ways at the gate of the community. Hu Chunli took the children to school, while Li Xu went to a nearby small shop and called.
The phone number in the store before has been moved to the home in the city, so now I can only make phone calls to the nearby small store.
Fang Xinyi's mother had left a phone number for Fang Xinyi before and told Fang Xinyi to call her if there was anything.
Although Fang Xinyi had never called this number, she had memorized it by heart.
In the small shop, Fang Xinyi said, Li Xu pressed the number for her.
The beeping sound made Fang Xinyi a little nervous.
She had to control her emotions and couldn't cry, otherwise her mother would definitely be worried.
Soon, the call was connected.
Fang Xinyi couldn't wait to shout, "Mom..."
"Who is your mother, where did you come from?" An old voice came from the other end of the phone.
Fang Xinyi was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you my mother?"
"What's your mother's name?"
"Deng Juan!"
"Oh, she, she lives upstairs. She went out in the morning and hasn't come back yet!" the old voice continued.
Fang Xinyi's expression was a little disappointed, she pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Seeing this, Li Xu quickly picked up the microphone and asked, "Hello, I'm Deng Juan's friend. I have something to do with her. When will she go back at night? I'll call again at night, please let me know when the time comes. She came down to answer the phone."
After Li Xu finished speaking, the old lady on the other end of the phone sneered: "It's like their industry, where can you tell when to come back? It's there at one or two in the morning."
Li Xu was stunned by the old lady's words, she lowered her head subconsciously and looked at Fang Xinyi.
Fang Xinyi looked at her ignorantly, with hope in her eyes.
Li Xu covered the microphone to keep her voice from spreading out, "What do you mean by what you just said..."
"Don't you know?" The old lady also seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, and quickly said: "Forget it, don't say it, I will tell her when she comes back, her daughter and friends are looking for her! Hang up! Bye!"
Before Li Xu could speak, the phone over there hung up.
"Hey..." Li Xu shouted, but there was a beeping sound on the phone.
Seeing this, Li Xu sighed helplessly and looked at Fang Xinyi: "Your mother is at work and hasn't come home yet. How about we call her later at night?"
Although the expression on Fang Xinyi's face was a little disappointed, she still answered sensible: "Okay!"
The children's transfer materials have been filled out, and Li Xu does not need to go to school in the afternoon.
She was too embarrassed to go to Hu Chunli's house, so she could only take Fang Xinyi to the store.
The employee who looked at the store was also an old employee in the store, surnamed Zhou, and Li Xu called her Sister Zhou.
Sister Zhou and Li Xu were also familiar with each other. Seeing Li Xu leading a strange little girl, she joked with her: "Boss Li, where are you kidnapped from?"
Li Xu said with a smile: "Yuan Yuan's classmate, there is nowhere to go, bring her to stay for a while."
Sister Zhou was picking leeks, and Li Xu also sat down with her, and chatted with her about daily life, "How is your recovery? Are you okay?"
While talking, he also pulled a stool for Fang Xinyi and put it by his hand.
"It's just a minor operation, I've already recovered, and now I can go to work in the field."
"That's fine, what about your son, how is your son?"
"It's pretty good too. Since his father got sick, he's become a lot more sensible and knows how to study. Last year's final exam, he rose several places!"
The two of them were talking and working at the same time. This time happened to be the lunch break, and there was no one in the store.
Fang Xinyi sat next to her at first, still a little cautious.
Listen and listen, and feel at ease.
Seeing that there was a basket of leeks in front of Sister Zhou, and her hands were idle, she also took a handful of leeks and picked them carefully.
Seeing this, Li Xu hurriedly stopped and said, "Put it down, you don't need to work, there is a faucet over there, go wash your hands!"
Li Xu said while pointing in the direction of the bathroom.
Sister Zhou also interjected: "Yes, children of your age, just learn to study well, you don't need to learn to work."
Fang Xinyi didn't move, she said in a low voice, "It's okay Auntie Li, I often help my mother with work at home, and I'm idle anyway."
She works very quickly, and she doesn't stop her hands when she talks. At a glance, she knows that she is a child who often does housework.
Li Xu sighed in her heart, thinking of the words she heard on the phone just now, she didn't stop her anymore.
After five o'clock in the afternoon, it is estimated that the children are also out of school.
Li Xu took Fang Xinyi to wait on their only way back.
A group of people returned to Hu Chunli's house again, and Li Xu and Hu Chunli cooked together.
It was already six o'clock after dinner. Seeing that Fang Xinyi was a little restless, Li Xu took her out and made another phone call Excuse me, is Deng Juan back? "
The old lady recognized Li Xu's voice and was a little impatient: "Didn't I tell you at noon? She came back very late, at eleven or two in the morning, and at one or two in the evening."
"That's okay, then I'll trouble you, I'll call again at night." Li Xu hesitated for a while, but hung up the phone.
