My Homestay connects to another world

After arriving in the urban area, Xie Cheng first went to the courier station to buy a few large cardboard boxes, then found a remote place to take out five pieces of crystal silk sheepskin, and packed them separately.

Then drive a tricycle to the old streets in the center of the city.

He found on the Internet that there is a decades-old store in Tianhe City that accepts custom-made clothing.

The third-grade crystal silk sheepskin is considered a good thing in another world. Xie Cheng thought it would be too wasteful to use it as a bedding. It would be better to make a winter coat for grandpa. It is light in weight and comfortable to the touch while keeping warm.

The shop is located in the old town, where the streets are narrow, and the sycamore trees planted along the roadside are densely branched. Turning into this street, the hot summer sun and the lingering boring air disappear.

On the old asphalt road, there are spots of light falling through the gaps in the leaves. On the side of the street are four or five-story old-fashioned brick buildings, and the decoration of the stores on the street also has the atmosphere of the passing of time.

It was eleven o'clock at noon, and there were no cars on the street, but the strong smell of mutton soup from the small restaurant on the street floated into Xie Cheng's nose very clearly at this moment.

Looking at the boxes in the back of the car, Xie Chengman regretfully wrote down the name of this restaurant.

Touching the empty stomach, turned around and started the three rounds, and drove forward with a bang.

The old store is located in the center of the street, with a double-push retro wooden door, and a glass window next to it, which houses the ready-made clothes in the store.

Xie Cheng paid attention to the cloak-style coat at a glance. The style is simple and smooth, and it has a slightly retro atmosphere, which is not awkward to wear in another world.

Walking into the store, the teacher is sitting by the sewing machine behind the wooden counter, busy with his hands.

With gray hair drooping, she didn't look up when she heard the doorbell, she just said, "Please wait a moment, my guest, it will be ready soon."

"I'm not in a hurry, you go first." Xie Chengwen put the box on the ground, and approached the window.

Looking at the coat from a close distance, the fabric is thick and delicate, which is just right for the season in another world, and the length of the coat can completely block the protective robe I bought at the knee position.

Xie Cheng didn't touch it. There are very few ready-made clothes displayed in the store, and each piece is like a treasured collection, well preserved.

"Tack, tap, tap!" The sound of the sewing machine slowly stopped, and the master craftsman cut off the thread, turned the finished shirt over, and quickly ironed it and hung it up.

The whole process looks smooth, but very fast.

The master chef looks about the same age as Grandpa Xie Cheng, with a calm demeanor and calm eyes, and doesn't talk much.

After asking Xie Cheng clearly about the style and details of the clothes to be made, he opened the box, rummaged through several pieces of crystal silk sheepskin, and then nodded for a while to take over Xie Cheng's work.

"You don't need to pay, just give me the leather left over from making clothes." The master craftsman refused Xie Cheng's demand for a deposit, put the unrecognizable piece of leather back into the box, and looked up at Xie Cheng's face Watch it carefully.

Xie Cheng was a little distressed, he didn't expect the master to see the problem with the skin so quickly, he was still careless.

Just as he was thinking about how to get the leather back, he heard the master ask uncertainly: "Guest, is your surname Xie?"

"Well, yes!" Xie Cheng responded subconsciously, and looked at the old master in surprise, and saw him looking at the coat in the window with a complicated expression.

"Do you know someone named Xie Yun?" The old master walked to the window, took down the registration information in his pocket, and handed it to Xie Cheng.

"He is my father." Xie Cheng looked at the yellow card in his hand, with a rare complex expression of surprise and uncertainty on his face.

The time written on that card was 20 years ago, half a month before Xie Cheng's parents passed away, and the registered person's name was "Xie Yun" and a strange pattern, which was very familiar to Xie Cheng.

Because that is the common language of the magic world, the translated name is "Pamilanci", and Xie Cheng's mother's name is "Lanqi".

"Can the guest pay me the balance of 27 yuan and bring this dress to your father?" The old master took off the clothes and didn't ask Xie Cheng's father too much, but asked Xie Cheng with a solemn expression.

The teacher's words made Xie Cheng break away from his complicated thoughts. He was a little dazed when he accidentally learned about his mother's background, but he couldn't let go of the news about his parents.

"Of course." Xie Cheng took out his mobile phone to scan the QR code to pay, and watched the old master fold the clothes and put them into the box.

"Master, can I ask you about this dress? My parents had an accident half a month after ordering the dress and passed away."

The old master paused, then continued to pack the box, just nodded to show he knew.

Finally, looking at Xie Chengqiu's eyes, he rubbed the box in his hand and said: "20 years ago, I just took over the store, and a young couple came to order this coat. The style and fabric of the clothes were brought by them. , It was the deposit they gave that allowed the store to continue to operate. But the clothes were finished but no one came to pick them up. Later I put the unclaimed clothes in the window, some people came to pick them up, and some people canceled the order, only This coat hangs for 20 years."

Xie Cheng hugged the box handed over by the master, only feeling that the clothes in his hand were very light, but the time it carried was heavy.

At the beginning, the idea of ​​getting back the crystal silk sheepskin disappeared after the shopkeeper said this.

He also filled out a registration card like his parents did.

"Please don't worry and let me make the clothes." Before leaving the door, the master chef said these words to Xie Cheng, which made Xie Cheng feel a lot easier when he walked out of the store.

Xie Cheng thinks that someone who can keep a piece of clothing for 20 years can be trusted.Besides, even if the shopkeeper doubts the origin of the sheepskin, can he threaten Xie Cheng?

When eating in a small restaurant, Xie Cheng couldn't help touching the box on the side. The card in his pocket solved the biggest confusion in his heart.

But relatively, more doubts surfaced in my heart.

The relationship between Xingchenhua and her mother?How did the father meet and fall in love with the mother?How can the star flower fix a place to teleport?Does her mother have complete control over time travel?Xingchenhua asked again what would become a seed and be given to herself by her mother?

Also, there was no way to find the bodies of the parents under the landslide that year, although the students rescued by the parents saw the two buried in it with their own eyes.

But what Xie Cheng has experienced now makes him suspect that his parents are really dead?Or did they cross over too?

These questions lingered in his mind, and he was so obvious that the grandfather could tell something was wrong with his grandson at a glance.

After dinner, he couldn't hide his concern and asked, "Is it getting more troublesome?"

Xie Cheng couldn't express his doubts to his grandfather. Although he felt that his parents were still alive, he looked at his old body.Before he found definite evidence, he couldn't say anything.

There are also things about time travel, his mother's origin, etc. Xie Cheng wants to find out by himself before telling his grandfather.

Looking at his grandpa's caring eyes, Xie Cheng gave the box containing the clothes to his grandpa, and talked about the clothes.

In the end, the old man drove Xie Cheng to the second floor. He sat in the yard and smoked a pipe, but he didn't open the box.

Xie Cheng was watching on the second floor, until his grandfather came back to the room in the middle of the night, and he quietly went downstairs to watch his grandfather fall asleep before he really felt relieved.

It's not that he doesn't want to hide his clothes, but he has already hidden so many things from his grandfather, and he doesn't want to lie to him again.

After returning to his room, looking at the star flowers shining fluorescently under the moonlight, Xie Cheng suddenly looked forward to the next time travel.

He couldn't help but wonder, what if his parents were somewhere in the world?

If he finds them, will the family of four be reunited?

"Let's become stronger first." Looking at the few books hidden under the quilt, Xie Cheng felt more motivated to practice.

In any case, he saw a glimmer of a happy future.

Before immersing himself in the magic book, Xie Cheng thought, "Mom, is this the happiness brought by the star flower you mentioned?"

......

Before dawn, Xie Cheng forced himself to stop reading the magic book. At home, he had to maintain a normal routine, unlike in the magic world, where he could find a tavern at random, and after activating the magic circle, he could immerse himself in cultivation with peace of mind .

Almost half a month later, the main body of the mountain youth hostel house has been built, and the decoration can start in a few days.

Dong Man was in charge of the quality of the decoration materials, and Xu Chenghe was also arranged by Xie Cheng to manage his WeChat account, allowing him to record the construction progress of the Youth Hostel and slowly promote it on Weibo.

Xie Cheng himself was idle, and the remaining few magic books had already been memorized in his mind.

He always stays in the room and reads, Grandpa Xie can't bear it first.

He drove Xie Cheng to the grocery store to look after the store, and then he went into the carpentry room at home. It seemed that after Grandpa Xie handed over the box containing the coat to Xie Cheng, he suddenly seemed to let go of something, and picked up the things that had been put down for many years. Carpentry.

Xie's grocery store has been in business for 20 years since Xie Cheng was a child.It was the oldest kind of grocery store, with only one window open.

Although the grocery store is small, it has all kinds of internal organs, from red wine and cigarettes to needles and threads, firecrackers, incense candles, light bulbs and wires, as long as it is something that can be used at home, it can be pulled out.

The fly in the ointment is that the single bungalow is too hot in summer to use a sauna in winter.

Xie Chengwo was flipping through his phone while hanging the fan behind the counter, thinking: "Grandpa won't object to buying some air conditioners, right?"

"Xiao Cheng, bring me two thimbles." Just after lunch, when the sun was at its fullest, an old lady approached outside the window, leaned her head on the glass counter, and said quietly: "Xiao Cheng, it's still time Is it comfortable to go back to our home? If you want me to tell you what’s good in a big city, high-rise buildings and cars come and go, and people can’t relax, how can it be better than our mountains.”

Xie Cheng stood up and walked to the shelf at the back, took out the box containing needlework from the grid, took out two thimbles from it, and put the box back.

I just left the fan for a short while, and a layer of sweat was already on my head.

"Ma'am, you're right. It's not worth it if you're too busy. I'll go back to our house to recuperate. The mountains and rivers in my old home are good for people." Xie Cheng wiped the sweat from his brow, and pushed the thimble in front of the aunt: "One dollar each, two dollars in total."

"Hey, Xiao Cheng, what's wrong with you? Have you seen a doctor? Is it not serious?" The aunt lives in the village, she likes to match people, and she knows every household in the village very well.

As soon as Xie Cheng came back, my aunt was thinking about him, and she became worried when she saw that he was 26 and didn't have a girlfriend, "Look at your family, there are only you and your grandson, both of them are big men, and no one can take care of others. To have a mistress."

Xie Cheng twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that this is finally here, the problem he has been worried about since he returned to his hometown.

It was almost a month before someone came to talk about the marriage, and he felt quite surprised.

"It's nothing serious, just sitting in front of the computer for a long time has problems. The neck, shoulders, and waist are not very good, and they need to rest more." Xie Cheng twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a stiff smile, avoiding the marriage problem. The code pushed forward: "Cash or WeChat, Alipay?"

"Oh, that bad waist needs to be cured properly. Aunt Gaiming will find a remedy for you. It will definitely be cured when you are young." The aunt only heard Xie Cheng's last words "bad waist", and she looked younger than himself. He had to worry about this issue, and he comforted Xie Cheng with a worried face, and didn't mention any of the girls who were supposed to give it to him.

After scanning the QR code, he was about to leave, but he didn't forget the thimble until Xie Cheng reminded him.

Seeing the people walk away, Xie Cheng murmured: "It won't be long before the village will know, I hope it can stop for a while."
