Now that the weather is getting hotter, Aunt Li Mei's commissary is closed late. It was past eleven o'clock that night, the TV show was almost over, and the talents dispersed in twos and threes.

Aunt Li Mei closed the courtyard door after closing, and when she entered the house, she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, so she came out to open the door.

"Who?"

The door opens.

"Why are you, Captain Marine?"

Although Lu Zhongjun has been transferred, Aunt Li Mei is still used to calling him by her original name. It was so late, and I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw him suddenly appear here.

Lu Zhongjun glanced in the direction of the room behind her.

"Auntie, is Li Mei back?"

"Li Mei?" Aunt Li Mei shook her head, "No." Didn't she tell you?"

"Say what?"

Aunt Li Mei hesitated.

Looking at Lu Zhongjun's current appearance, she was a little unsure whether Anna had told him that it was not her niece. If she didn't say it, it would be difficult for her side to speak rashly, so she said: "She left a few days ago and went to Shanghai." Don't you know?"

Lu Zhongjun's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"What are you doing in Shanghai?"

“…… I don't know the specifics......"

Aunt Li Mei responded vaguely.

Lu Zhongjun hesitated.

"Auntie, isn't she your niece?

"So you know, I'll just say it!" Aunt Li Mei breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Now that I know, I can talk better." yes, she's not actually my niece, she's here to find relatives in the first place......"

Under the guidance of Lu Zhongjun, Aunt Li Mei soon told her how Anna met Li Mei at the train station when she was looking for her relatives, and then pretended to be Li Mei and went home with her.

"She said that now she has to go to her relatives again, and I can't keep them. ”

Lu Zhongjun's palms were already sweating.

"Did she give a specific address?"

"I didn't say it. Aunt Li Mei shook her head, "When she left, she entrusted the milk station to my son-in-law Da Song, and she took all the things with her, so it seems that she won't be coming back in the short term." I said, Captain Lu, aren't you talking about it, why don't you know about such an important matter...... Honestly, I really like this girl, she's beautiful, capable, and good-hearted, I really think of her like my niece......

Aunt Li Mei was still there talking to Lu Zhongjun, but Lu Zhongjun didn't pay attention to what she was talking about at all, the whole person was completely frozen, and an ominous omen welled up in her heart.

Of course, he didn't believe what she had told him that day from thirty years later. But she pretended to be Li Mei, and her real name should be Anna, which is absolutely true!

He remembered that when he first saw her at the police station last year, at first, her own name was also Anna.

At that time, he felt that something was wrong with her.

He didn't delve into it, and he didn't care much, and then he even fell in love with her and fell in love.

This woman, who was right with him, slept together, and he was about to tell his father about the two of them and get married, but suddenly, everything changed!

Why did she pretend to be Li Mei? What is her origin?

But that's not the most important thing. On top of that, he had a fight with her, and she turned around and left him behind, leaving nothing behind!

Shanghai is so big, where will she go to find her relatives, and how will he find her?

Thinking back to what she said when the two quarreled that day, it seemed that she was really going to leave herself and leave!

"Did she tell you why she wanted to pretend to be your niece Li Mei?"

Lu Zhongjun suppressed the extreme anger and anxiety that poured out of his heart that he had been deceived and suddenly abandoned, and asked Aunt Li Mei in a deep voice.

"She mentioned it, as if there was something wrong with the hukou, and it happened that when you wanted to check her, she pretended to be my niece. ”

Aunt Li Mei finally sensed that Lu Zhongjun's expression was wrong.

"Hey, I said Captain Lu, what's wrong with you? Why don't you look good......?"

Lu Zhongjun turned around and strode away suddenly, and his figure quickly disappeared into the thick night.

……

Mom and Dad Xiaoguang and Grandma are not there, and Anna is fine here, she doesn't want to leave anyway, so she just wanders around. With her memory, she went to see the elementary school where she went to school for a few years, and went to the small park where her parents took her to play when she was a child, and she sat for half a day. Wander around. The next day, I stopped at the entrance of a factory on Gaoping Road with the words "Kyushu Fabric and Garment Factory" hanging outside.

This small clothing fabric factory is the first career that Anna's father did after changing jobs. The factory now produces work clothes, sleeve covers, quilt covers, and other things. Anna's father has the ability, brain, and the way, after taking over this small factory on the verge of bankruptcy, after hard work, this has led to later success.

At present, this fabric and garment factory is still a street collective operation. The doorway was in tatters, and there was a janitor, and a dozen bicycles were parked in the courtyard.

This janitor Anna has an impression, remembering that her surname is Zhang, as if she was a veteran who had been discharged and recovered from the army in the early years, who had fought in the war to aid Korea, and one leg was a little crippled and she walked lamely. After Anna's father took over the factory, he arranged for him to continue working in the factory. Lao Zhang is very responsible for his work and is also very good to Anna, who remembers that he often buys himself the kind of colorful jelly beans to eat.

Anna walked to the gate and looked inside. Lao Zhang saw that someone was coming and glanced at her.

There are more than a dozen female workers working in the workshop. While stepping on the sewing machine and making sleeves, he was talking and laughing loudly, and the doors and windows in the factory director's office on the other side were closed, and no one was in sight.

"Uncle Zhang, are you still hurting your leg lately?"

Anyway, it was okay, Anna talked to Lao Zhang.

"The old problem, if you make a mistake, drink a few sips of Lao Bai dry pressure ......"

Lao Zhang answered, and suddenly remembered, "I said girl, who are you, how do you know that my leg hurts?"

Anna smiled.

"What are you doing here? I see you looking inside. Lao Zhang saw that she shouldn't, and he didn't care, thinking that she was looking for a job.

"If you want to come and ask for work, let's come back in a few days. If you're lucky, someone is talking to the street these days about taking over the contractor. If it's decided, it's definitely going to be hired. Then you can come back and ask. Lao Zhang enthusiastically introduced.

Anna's father sometimes drank wine with Anna at home, and would also talk to her about his old business days. So Anna knows about it, too. This small factory was indeed contracted by a person surnamed Zeng first, but not long after, due to a mistake in judgment, a large amount of goods were pressed down and faced turnover difficulties, and had to change hands again, which was taken over by Anna's father, who returned home.

"Really? I'll come back in a few days. ”

Anna smiled and said goodbye to Lao Zhang, and turned to leave.

……

Half a month later, Anna finally waited for her mother.

Xiao Yu came back from his father with Xiaoguang.

That day, she wore a light blue dress, a pair of mid-heeled sandals of the same color, a very beautiful purple plastic bow buckle pinned to her black curly hair, and walked past Anna with a travel bag in one hand and a bouncing little light in the other.

When the wind blows, the skirt flutters and swayes, and it looks like a period beauty painting.

"Mr. Xiao, is Beijing back?"

Aunt Song, a neighbor who came out of the alley, saw Xiao Yu come back and showed a surprised expression.

"Yes, Aunt San, just came back. I bought some things over there, but they were too heavy to hold, so Guoqiang sent them to me. I'll bring it to you when I receive it in a few days. ”

Xiao Yu smiled.

"Then how embarrassing, it's so easy for you to go to see Guoqiang and remember what you're doing......"

"It's okay, my family Guoqiang said that anyone can be less, just your third aunt's!"

Aunt Song San couldn't be happy, laughed haha, made fun of Xiaoguang, asked him if he had taken pictures in Tiananmen Square, stood for a while, and then left.

When Aunt Song left, Anna couldn't help but follow, hiding at the mouth of the alley and poking out to peek. I saw my mother bow her head and touch the key in the bag, but she couldn't touch it for a long time.

Xiaoguang seemed to notice Anna peeking at the mouth of the alley, and glanced back.

Anna was afraid that her mother would find out that she was watching, so she quickly shrank back.

After a while, Xiao Yu still didn't seem to find the key.

"Mom, I want to drink water. ”

Xiaoguang looked up and said.

Xiao Yu was dumbfounded.

Before going out, she didn't want to bring such a heavy keychain, so she left other keys at home and brought a gate.

She remembers putting the keys in the inner pocket of her bag before going out. But now I can't find it.

When her husband sent her back to the train station, he was afraid that she would lose something, so he specially helped her confirm it.

She remembers very well that the key was still there.

Now it's gone.

She thought about it carefully, and finally remembered that when she was on the train, Xiaoguang wanted to eat roast chicken, and she didn't have enough change around her, so she took the money from the inner pocket where the key was placed.

An Guoqiang told her not to let the money fall into the eyes of others, so she deliberately turned around and took out the money in the direction of the back of the chair.

Or maybe I accidentally took the key out at that time, and I may have fallen into the gap between the seats, and I didn't realize it.

It's too bad now, Grandma Xiaoguang is not here when she returns to her hometown.

"Xiaoguang, my mother accidentally seems to have the key...... Lost ......"

Xiao Yu said to Xiaoguang a little embarrassed.

"Then what should I do, my father is not here, and my grandmother is not here...... Xiaoguang was also anxious, and pushed the door, but the door did not move.

"Mom wants to find a way, or I find someone to pick the lock, you go to the third aunt's house to sit for a while......"

……

Anna sometimes has a little problem, she went to live abroad by herself, and suffered a few times, which she slowly and consciously corrected.

But her beautiful mother is more powerful than her in this aspect. Anyway, with the almighty father pampering, she doesn't seem to repent.

Anna couldn't stand it anymore, her blood was surging, and she immediately ran over and said, "Teacher Xiao, you borrow a ladder from a neighbor to build a wall, and I will help you climb over the wall and open the door!"

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, and finally recognized her.

"Is that you? I remember you......"

"yes, it's me!"

In her father's absence, she consciously took on the role of a hero. Holding back the excitement in his heart, now he just wants to save his mother from the predicament, "You go and borrow it!"

“…… Can you really do it?"

Xiao Yu looked at the girl who suddenly appeared in front of her and looked even smaller than herself, and was a little stunned for a while.

"Just call me Anna! I can do it! Go borrow a ladder!"

Anna urged her.

The courtyard walls in the south of the Yangtze River are also more delicate than those in the north. Not very high, a little over two meters. The walls are not inlaid with glass or anything.

Xiao Yu was forced by the sudden appearance of a familiar Anna to knock on the door of the next-door neighbor.

At this time, the adults in the neighborhood were not there, only a child. She moved a bamboo ladder out and put it up to the wall of the courtyard, and Anna climbed up.

"Miss Anna, are you really good? Why don't you come down and I'll call someone else to help." ”

Xiao Yu raised her head to help her hold the ladder, really a little uneasy.

"I can do it, don't worry!"

finally came across such a good opportunity to get closer to each other, and even if she really fell, Anna was willing. She had never been so agile in her life, so she quickly climbed onto the wall, slowly straddled the wall, and after stabilizing her body, she asked Xiao Yu to raise the ladder, slowly pulled the ladder up, and then put it on the other side of the inner wall.

"Be careful!

Xiao Yu was very nervous, and kept shouting below, regretting a little why he didn't stop her just now.

Anna had already climbed down, and after landing on the ground, she unlocked the door and smiled at Xiao Yu and Xiaoguang.

"Sister Anna, you're amazing!"

Xiaoguang jumped up excitedly, his eyes full of admiration.

Xiao Yu was also relieved to see her land safely, and was very grateful, and hurriedly thanked Anna and let Anna come in and sit.

Anna held back her excitement, came out and rushed to help her carry her luggage, and cheekily followed in.
