He's doing handicraft again

Because Jiang Xin also fell asleep, maybe he was tired from taking videos for Xiao Yuan during the day.

It wasn't until the next morning when he arrived at the office and ate the beef vermicelli buns and salted tofu brains given by Xiao Yuan that he found a reminder to add friends on WeChat.

Jiang Xin clicked on "New Friend", saw Xia Jiao was displayed on the screen, and pressed "Accept".

Jiang Xin: Sorry, I just saw it.

He saw that Xia Jiao was the friend he had applied for in the middle of the night yesterday, and it took him a night to agree, so he felt a little sorry.

Xiao Jiaozi: Jiang Xin, Xiao Yuan's birthday is coming, how are you going to spend it?

Xia Jiao replied to the message in seconds, straight to the point.

What does his birthday have to do with me, Jiang Xin didn't know how to answer.

Xiao Jiaozi: This is Xiao Yuan's first birthday since you were together, so the meaning is definitely different.By the way, did Xiao Yuan tell you what is his birthday?

Jiang Xin: No.

It was only then that he remembered that he and Xiao Yuan still had a "couple" relationship, but why did Xia Jiao care so much about him and Xiao Yuan?

He imagined himself caring about how Li Yufei and his girlfriend were doing, and he really couldn't empathize.

Maybe their roommates have a good relationship, and they can often get together for dinner or play after graduation.

The "Daily Communication Group of Eunuchs" is also active from time to time.

Unlike his college roommate group, there was no movement before graduation. At most, it was just who asked who to help with meals, delivery, and check-in. After graduation, there was no sound at all.

Little Dumpling: Xiao Yuan is a very boring person. When we were still studying, he would remind us every time his birthday was approaching, but he didn’t say it clearly. I guess it’s the same this time, just wait. .

Jiang Xin: Really?

He recalled Xiao Yuan's recent words and deeds, but found no difference.

Little Dumpling: Let me tell you, at this time last year, we had graduated for a few months, and we didn’t even think about celebrating Xiao Yuan’s birthday. We ate, we were all sorry, we flipped through the chat records in the previous group and gave him double gifts.

Jiang Xin: Huh?

What does chat history mean?

Little Dumpling: Just two weeks before his birthday, Xiao Yuan sent some weird words, such as "there are goose bumps on the neck when the cold wind hits", so Qin Shao gave him a pure cashmere scarf, and another example is " Correcting homework until late at night with a sore back and sore back”, I gave him an ergonomic chair.

Jiang Xin: Your relationship is really good.

If it were me, I couldn't tell that Xiao Yuan's words were asking for gifts.

He thought of his college roommates, everyone didn't celebrate each other's birthdays, and he was a little envious.

Xiao Jiaozi: So don't tell him yet, we will give him another surprise then.The birthday celebration process is nothing more than eating and singing K, the most important thing is to prepare the gifts well.

Jiang Xin: I see, thank you for telling me.

Jiang Xin thought that although he and Xiao Yuan were not real couples, they were still friends, and the gift had to be carefully prepared.

Xiao Dumpling: I remember when I was a freshman, I celebrated Xiao Yuan’s birthday for the first time. I didn’t know what to give, so I randomly picked up a Rubik’s Cube on the table and gave it away.Unexpectedly, when I graduated, I found that Xiao Yuan actually kept all the gifts we gave, and put all the relatively small gifts in one box, including the worthless Rubik's Cube.By the way, when you go to Xiaoyuan's dormitory, you can find a green storage box and open it to see the gifts we gave back then.

Jiang Xin: Haha, is that right?

Why should I go to his dormitory?Jiang Xin really wanted to ask this question, but he was afraid of being asked by Xia Jiao.

Little Dumpling: I'm going to be busy with work, let's discuss where to eat on Xiao Yuan's birthday when I have free time.

Jiang Xin: You haven't told me Xiao Yuan's birthday yet.

He was helpless, Xia Jiao had been talking for a long time without pointing to the point.

Mariko: It's October 10th, sorry to talk too much nonsense and forgot to say.

Jiang Xin: OK.

—

After finishing chatting with Xia Jiao, Jiang Xin began to think about what gift he should give Xiao Yuan, but he couldn't think of any, so he should just ask.

"Xiao Yuan."

"Jiang Xin."

The two called each other's name in unison, and turned back together.

Then, they bumped into each other face to face.

Jiang Xin first closed his eyes because of the pain from the bump on his nose, and then he felt his lips covered by a soft object.He opened his eyes, found the face close at hand, and froze.

I don't know how long it took, but neither of them moved.In the end, Xiao Yuan was the first to react, and slowly backed away a little.But there seemed to be some reluctance between the lips, and they stuck together and stretched to a certain distance before rebounding.

Jiang Xin seemed to hear the faint "boo chirp" sound, and felt the rebound force on his lips, and his face immediately flushed.

He wanted to say something to ease the awkward atmosphere, but he opened his mouth several times but no sound came out.

"Mr. Jiang, do you have a fever? Why is your face so red?" Teacher Ma just returned to the office after a class, saw Jiang Xin's face, and asked with concern, and then found it strange that the two of them were facing each other without moving. , "What are you doing?"

"We're playing a game of 'see who moves first'." Xiao Yuan stepped back a little, and smiled at Mr. Ma, "Look, Mr. Ma, Jiang Xin's face is even reddened by me. It's a face of disaster for the country and the people."

"It's really easy for you to teach labor skills, and you still have time to play games." Teacher Ma envied him, but he didn't understand the second part of the sentence, anyway, he didn't want to praise Xiao Yuanshuai at all.

"Where is it easy? Which class is like our labor skill class that gives guidance every two weeks?" Xiao Yuan was thinking hard about the 6 themes, and his head was almost bald.

"How wonderful this is, it shows that the Education Bureau attaches great importance to labor skills courses. By the end of the semester, you two will definitely win the medal of the representative of advanced teachers." Teacher Ma began to pick lemons while talking.

"Then let's change, you will teach labor skills, and I will teach science." Xiao Yuan didn't look forward to that illusory medal at all.

"The principal won't agree." Teacher Ma saw that it was time for class again, so he had to go outside, lamenting as he walked, "I actually spend such a little rest time talking nonsense with you."

"I don't want to talk nonsense with you yet." Xiao Yuan saw that Teacher Ma had gone away, and only him and Jiang Xin were left in the office, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward again.

Xiao Yuan felt that he should break the embarrassment by himself: "What did you call me just now?"

"It's nothing." Jiang Xin couldn't ask Xiao Yuan what gift he wanted at the moment, and the heat on his face hadn't subsided. He remembered that Xiao Yuan called him just now, so he asked, "You called me just now, didn't you?" ,What's up?"

Both of them were working hard when the accident didn't happen.

"Oh, I just checked Weibo and saw a microblogger who made a lot of scenes. I was wondering if we can also set a theme and let students in a class work together to create a scene." Xiao Yuan While talking, he handed the phone to Jiang Xin for him to see.

Jiang Xin took the phone and touched Xiao Yuan's finger, recalling the touch just now, and reflexively let go of his hand.

The mobile phone fell freely, with its "face" on the ground, and with a snap, the screen was covered with "spider webs".

"I..." Jiang Xin wanted to say sorry, thinking that Xiao Yuan would just give him a mobile phone on his birthday, but poverty made it hard for him to say it.

Xiao Yuan picked up the phone and uncovered the "spider web".

——Fortunately, it only broke the tempered film on the surface.

Jiang Xin secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

After being interrupted like this, the embarrassment dissipated a lot, and Jiang Xin could finally think rationally about what Xiao Yuan said just now.

"The miniature scene can't be made overnight, but we can simplify it, and the specific plan needs to be discussed carefully." Jiang Xin said while thinking, "For example, I saw a master who played miniature made a kitchen series. The pots and pans are smaller than a knuckle, and they can even be used normally. But this kind of skill needs to be accumulated over many years, and it is difficult for ordinary students to reach this step, so we can’t copy it.”

"I know, I have to simplify it." Xiao Yuan asked again, "Then after you simplify it, this topic is my idea, right?"

"It's your fault." Seeing Xiao Yuan's pleading expression, Jiang Xin had no choice but to agree.

Who made him celebrate his birthday soon?The birthday star is the biggest.

After the discussion, the two returned to their seats to do their own things.

Finally not having to face Xiao Yuan anymore, Jiang Xin heaved a sigh of relief.It has only been 10 minutes since Xia Jiao asked him to chat, but Jiang Xin felt that it was a long time.

He picked up the wooden strips on the desk and started splicing. This was also to divert his attention from thinking about the accident just now.

These wooden strips were cut by Jiang Xin according to his own drawings by an old carpenter. They can be spliced ​​together with a mortise and tenon structure to form a "Swastika" shape. There is a groove in the center of the "Swastika". The round wooden strip with the base is inserted into that groove and a bracket is completed.

However, because the edges and corners of the cut wood strips are still sharp, Jiang Xin took out a gold file to smooth the edges and corners.

Then start grinding according to the number of sandpaper meshes from small to large. When 2000 mesh sandpaper is used, the surface of the bracket is already very smooth.

"What is this?" Xiao Yuan asked standing next to Jiang Xin at some point.

"A bracket for hanging pendants." Jiang Xin replied, seeing that Xiao Yuan was still looking at himself with a puzzled face, and added, "Recently, there are a lot of people ordering pendants, so I just made more at once, so I can hang them on this bracket .”

After Jiang Xin finished speaking, he swept the sawdust and unusable sandpaper on the table into the trash can. He tried not to look at Xiao Yuan's face, for fear that he would blush again.

"That's it." Xiao Yuan understood, and also saw that Jiang Xin didn't really want to talk to him, so he returned to his seat.

Seeing that Xiao Yuan had finally returned to his seat, with his back turned to him, Jiang Xin dared to touch his lips with his hand. It was still as crisp and numb as before, and he didn't know when it would return to normal.

The author has something to say: After returning to the stationery store, Jiang Xin read the chat records of the "eunuchs' daily communication group" three times over and over again, but he didn't realize that what Xiao Yuan said was asking for a gift... …
