Chapter 24 "Miss Shi, let's talk."
Xing Xiaochu and Guazi were there to welcome Qi Ying at the door, so when Qi Ying came out of the elevator, he saw two shadows, one big and one small, squatting at the door. When they heard the movement in the elevator, they raised their heads.
Xing Xiaochu said: "Sister, you are back."
Little melon seed said: "Meow——"
Qi Ying suddenly felt that this scene was very beautiful and wanted to take a picture of it with her mobile phone.
"Yes." Qi Ying walked up to Xing Xiaochu and handed her all the things in his hand: "These are the textbooks and school uniforms that the teacher asked me to bring for you, as well as the student ID and campus card. Take a good look at what you need. We bought them all in the past two days."
Xing Xiaochu nodded seriously while holding the heavy bag. Seeing a drop of sweat running down Qi Ying's temple, he raised his hand and wiped it with his sleeve.
Qi Ying smelled a pleasant scent on Xing Xiaochu.
"Thank you, sister." Xing Xiaochu wiped the sweat off his face and smiled at Qi Ying, "Actually, you could have asked me to go with you. This is what I should have done."
Qi Ying pulled the corner of his mouth into a smile and let Xing Xiaochu enter the house.
In the study, Qi Ying tidied up the desk and said to her, "You will study here from now on. This desk is big and can hold a lot of things."
Xing Xiaochu put her textbooks on the shelf and flipped through the new textbooks excitedly. Her eyes and brows were filled with joy, and it was obvious that she liked these things very much. Then Qi Ying took out the school uniform, which was a sports style. The teacher said that there was only this type of uniform at present, and other uniforms would be purchased in a unified manner after school started.
"I heard from your teacher that the school has at least three sets of uniforms, spring and autumn uniforms, summer uniforms, and winter down jackets to be customized." Qi Ying held up the long-sleeved uniform and said to Xing Xiaochu, "Come and try it on to see if it fits."
When I put on the school uniform, it was obviously several sizes too big.
Qi Ying looked at it and scratched his head.
"There aren't many school uniforms left. When the teacher asked me about your height and weight, she said the clothes might be too big, but I didn't expect them to be that much bigger." Qi Ying walked around Xing Xiaochu and said to her, "It's okay. Don't forget that I'm a fashion designer. Take off your school uniform and I'll alter it for you."
Xing Xiaochu shook off the cuffs that had reached his fingertips and said to her, "It's okay, sister. It's more comfortable to wear a bigger size. It's too much trouble to alter the clothes."
Qi Ying smiled and said, "What's the trouble? It's just a matter of sewing. Take it off quickly. I'll go get the tools."
Taking a pair of scissors, a tape measure, and needle and thread from the storage room, Qi Ying used the dining table as a workbench and began to alter Xing Xiaochu's school uniform. Xing Xiaochu stood beside her holding the kitten and watched her movements. She saw that the original school uniform was taken apart and sewed back together, and the scissors cut off a large piece of cloth with a click.
The kitten was very interested in the waste materials. It jumped onto the table and started playing with needles and thread. Qi Ying picked it up and put it on the ground, telling it not to make trouble.
Xing Xiaochu was afraid that the kitten would disturb Qi Ying's work again, so he took a cat toy to play with it, but the little guy obviously found new fun and wanted to waste the cloth, pestering Qi Ying and meowing.
Qi Ying glanced at the little guy and said with a smile, "Don't scream. I'll sew a little fish for you with the scrap fabric after I finish altering the school uniform."
The little kitten raised its head: "Meow——"
Soon, Qi Ying finished altering the school uniform top and asked Xing Xiaochu to try it on. This time it fit perfectly, neither too big nor too small, just the right size.
Xing Xiaochu opened her eyes wide and looked at her cuffs, saying, "I clearly saw you rip it apart just now, how come there is no trace of sewing at all now? Sister, you are amazing."
Qi Ying was very happy to be praised, and said proudly: "You can still tell it's hand-sewn. It would be great if I had a sewing machine at home. But it doesn't matter. You can't tell unless you look closely."
Xing Xiaochu was wearing a new school uniform. He looked at Qi Ying with sparkling eyes and nodded.
Afterwards, Qi Ying started to alter the school uniform pants. The pants were much simpler than the top, and after shortening them, there was basically no need to do much. As for the remaining fabric, Qi Ying naturally kept his word and made several small fish for Guazi.
I made a big fish on two pieces of trouser leg fabric, and a bunch of small fish on the other corners, and it was done.
"It's still too small. You can put the big fish in the cat's bed and wait until it grows up before playing with it. You can let it play with these small fish and grind its teeth at the same time." Qi Ying squatted down and handed a thumb-sized small cloth fish to Guazi. The little kitten ran over with its tail erect, took a bite of the blue fish and walked away happily.
Xing Xiaochu also changed her clothes. The blue and white school uniform fit her well and made her look much younger, more like a junior high school student.
very beautiful.
Qi Ying's eyes widened. Xing Xiaochu thought it was because her school uniform was ugly, so she lowered her head and said awkwardly, "Is it ugly, sister?"
Qi Ying quickly shook her head: "No, it looks very good... No, it suits you very well." Qi Ying supplemented, "I think other school uniforms are also very good-looking, they will definitely suit you."
Xing Xiaochu finally felt relieved.
"Xiaochu." Qi Ying felt that this moment was very memorable, so he took out his cell phone and said to her, "Let me take a picture of you so your mother can see it too."
Xing Xiaochu was slightly startled. Seeing that Qi Ying had taken out his mobile phone, he nodded and took a photo standing on the balcony as requested.
Qi Ying looked at the photo on the phone with satisfaction and said to her, "It's really beautiful."
Xing Xiaochu felt very complicated at the moment. She watched Qi Ying flipping through the photo album on her mobile phone seriously, and then she realized belatedly that Qi Ying was so nice to her simply because she was her mother's child.
If it were someone else, would Qi Ying be so nice to that person?
Or maybe Qi Ying just loves her mother and all her children are taken care of.
Xing Xiaochu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she pinched her palms nervously with her hands behind her back, leaving a red mark. At this moment, Qi Ying didn't notice it at all, and even called Xing Xiaochu over to take a photo together.
Xing Xiaochu didn't refuse, but just moved closer with a pale face and forced a not-so-bright smile towards the camera.

After exiting the game, Qi Ying looked at the photo of himself and Xing Xiaochu on his phone. The little girl looked a little reserved and was somewhat uncomfortable facing the camera.
But it doesn’t matter. Qi Ying feels that things will get better slowly in the future, and Xing Xiaochu will become close to her sooner or later.
'jingle--'
When Qi Ying pushed open the door of the shop, he saw a familiar figure sitting on the sofa. Shi Yu was wearing a black and white suit today. When he heard the door open, he turned his head and looked over. His delicate and beautiful eyes stared at Qi Ying closely. He didn't say a word, but his eyes were full of questioning.
Xia Ruoxin spread her hands towards Qi Ying behind the computer at the cashier counter, indicating that there was nothing she could do and that they should solve their problems between theirselves.
Qi Ying knew that some things were bound to happen, so she prepared herself mentally the first time she saw Shi Yu. She walked slowly into the store, stood in front of Shi Yu and said to her, "Miss Shi, let's talk."
