Fortunately, both adults and children in this family were very polite, and her tense heart gradually calmed down as the class went on.
After a few days of adapting, she was no longer as scared as she was at the beginning.
On the contrary, Wei Xing was like an underground liaison, asking her about her situation in a mysterious manner every time.
However, Min Manxing did not find it annoying and still checked in seriously every day.
Gradually, her winter vacation became as regular as her school days.
I teach the children every afternoon and go home in the evening. Occasionally, I will make an appointment with Wei Xing to go to the bookstore to buy things in the morning.
Of course, she didn't stay with Wei Xing every day during the winter vacation.
This is too intimate.
And Wei Xing didn't come to disturb her every day.
Wei Xing: Hello, I want to disturb you, but I’m afraid of scaring people away.
In a blink of an eye, half a month of winter vacation passed, and Min Manxing also paid back the money for the mobile phone.
After work that day, she saw lanterns and couplets being sold on the street, and this time she suddenly realized that the Spring Festival was about to come.
“Time flies.”
She sighed as she watched the passersby beaming with joy.
Although she didn't have much money in her pocket, she still decided to buy a New Year's gift for Wei Xing.
She remembered that there was a shop selling small gifts on this side of the road.
Min Manxing acted immediately, tightening her scarf and walking towards the store.
As I walked to the door of this store, a couple came towards me. The girl was wearing a short skirt and was dressed very elegantly, and the boy was wearing a black shirt and had a tattoo on his arm.
The two of them were walking out arm in arm.
Liu Qianrou?
Although Min Manxing couldn't see her face clearly, she heard that iconic laugh.
"What's wrong, baby?"
The tattooed man hugged Liu Qianrou and looked at her standing there in a daze, pinching her waist in confusion.
"It's okay, let's go."
Liu Qianrou came back to her senses, suppressed her panic, and leaned shyly in the man's arms.
Min Manxing was worried that Liu Qianrou would recognize her, so she hid her head in her scarf and quickly went in through the other door.
She thought it was just a minor incident, but she didn't know that Liu Qianrou, who was walking away, suddenly turned back and glared at her viciously.
It’s Min Manxing again!
Why does this person always ruin her plans?
How could a poor person like her have the nerve to go into a gift shop like this?
Liu Qianrou was worried that her relationship with Rong Cheng would be discovered by people in the school, so she deliberately chose high-end places for the date. She really didn't expect to meet Min Manxing in this more prosperous place.
Face blind, huh? You better be face blind!
Min Manxing in the gift shop was looking at the merchandise without noticing.
When she came in, she found that the items in this store started at a few hundred yuan.
Although it hurt, I still turned around a few times seriously.
Unfortunately, she didn't like anything within her acceptable price range, so she ended up leaving the gift shop.
I was planning to go back and think about what to give as a gift, but my steps stopped in front of another shop.
This is a clothing store that sells sweaters and yarn.
Min Manxing looked at the piles of wool and recalled the days when he lived with his grandmother in the countryside.
Living with my grandmother was a bit hard. Most of the time, her clothes were not bought, but made by my grandmother using fabrics bought from a tailor shop.
Even the sweater she is wearing now was knitted by her grandmother.
The more Min Manxing thought about it, the more appropriate it seemed.
Wei Xing gave her a scarf, so she gave him a sweater!
It just so happened that she had learned the knitting skills from her grandmother.
After deciding on the gift, she hummed a song with some joy, went into the store and carefully chose for a long time. She bought a roll of wool yarn that felt very comfortable, and then went home happily.
Although the wool here is more expensive than what they buy over there, the wool sweaters she just glanced at in the store are all quite expensive.
It's a very appropriate gift for her.
So now she has one more thing to do besides reading at home, which is knitting sweaters.
In a blink of an eye, New Year's Eve arrived.
The tutor's mistress also gave her seven days off.
Min Manxing wanted to ask Wei Xing to spend time with her, but she saw the text message sent by Wei Xing first.
"Manxing, my dad asked me to go back to Ling City for the New Year."
Wei Xing actually didn't want to leave, but his father warned him that since he was here now, he could turn a blind eye.
But if he didn't go back to visit the old man during the New Year, he would be kidnapped.
If he is tied back, it means he can never come back.
Wei Xing had finally met Min Manxing, and he didn't want to go back just like that.
In the end, he had no choice but to agree to his father's request.
Min Manxing looked at the text message for several minutes before typing a reply.
"Go ahead. He is your relative after all. Are you really planning not to go back to see your relatives during the New Year?"
Only now did she realize that she was the only one without a home.
Just because Wei Xing lives alone here doesn't mean he is abandoned like her.
When she thought about how stupid she had been, she raised her hand and patted her head lightly.
She wanted to wake herself up.
What are you daydreaming about...
"Then Manxing, will your parents come back to celebrate the New Year with you?"
Wei's father brought his men here in a hurry, so he now had to take a car to the airport.
"Yes, it's Chinese New Year, I can't be alone."
Min Manxing looked at Wei Xing worriedly and asked, raised her hand to wipe away the tears that were flowing inexplicably, and replied calmly.
Why should she tell Wei Xing about her family’s troubles?
Wei Xing is her friend, not an emotional box, so she can't say everything.
"Haha, that's right. That's it then. I should be back on the fourth day of the New Year."
Wei Xing looked at Min Manxing's reply and thought it made sense, so he quickly typed a reply.
"Well, be careful on the road. I won't bother you anymore."
After reading Wei Xing's reply, Min Manxing put his phone back on.
Looking at the sweater carefully packed in the bag on the table, he gave a wry smile.
It seems that the gift can only be given after Wei Xing comes back.
She didn't intend to blame Wei Xing, as they had never agreed to celebrate the New Year together.
Besides, why would he spend time with her, who is just a classmate, instead of with his family during the New Year?
Although she could figure it out, she was still a little depressed.
Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and she has to buy some things to stock up.
She forced herself to cheer up, patted her face, wrapped herself in a towel, put on a hat, and left the rental house wrapped tightly.
Perhaps it is because many people who lived here during the Spring Festival and went out to work have left.
This yard, which was a bit noisy in the past, has become exceptionally quiet at this moment.
Min Manxing didn't feel disappointed, she actually enjoyed it.
She was wrapped so thickly in the winter that no one could see her and no one would pay attention to her.
After purchasing the ingredients and returning home, Min Manxing looked at the small but cozy little house and decided not to cook tonight. Instead, he would eat the dumplings and half-cooked meat dishes he bought.
She also has to create the New Year atmosphere.
She can't let down her grandmother in heaven. She can live well on her own.
Soon night fell quietly, and fireworks were set off all over the city near midnight.
Min Manxing listened to the ping-pong sounds outside the house, hesitated for a long time while lying on the bed, lifted the quilt, hurriedly put on his coat, held his cell phone tightly, and tiptoed out of the rental house.
She walked towards the stairs as quietly as possible.
She lives on the first floor, but the compound has four floors.
She really wanted to go to a high place to take a closer look at the fireworks blooming in the sky.
