34 Scarlet Postcard (7)

The address given to me by Qiu Shishi is a residential area, and most of the people who live there are aborigines of the city, so don't look at the houses here are not as exquisite and novel as those that sell big, but they are more valuable than those that are simple and simple.

The address was gone, but the ghost kid behind me shouted, "I know here, go this way." ”

Passing by a small square, there is a big tree in the square, and the ghost child chirps: "I often come here to play, and there are many grandparents here in the evening, and there are many friends." ”

"Over there, do you see over there, there's a small park with seesaws and wooden horses, and my mother often takes me to play." The child's voice was full of joy and pride, but then it was sad again, "But I really haven't seen my mother and father for a long, long time." ”

I couldn't help but be reassured: "I'll see you soon." ”

"Uh-huh!" I could feel him nodding hard behind my back, his jaw hitting my shoulder, and the thought of a ghost kid on his back was chilling.

"That's it, my home is here." In front of a two-story building, children shouted excitedly.

"Got it, got it."

It's only eight o'clock now, and it shouldn't be too abrupt to visit, but it's a little embarrassing to be a stranger.

I rang the doorbell, and while waiting, I found that I was as nervous as a ghost child, and found that no one came to open the door, and pressed it twice more before finally hearing the sound of the door opening.

The sound was a little strange, how to put it, as if this door had not been opened in a long time, it was very heavy.

Halfway through the door, a young girl poked her head out from behind the door and looked at me suspiciously: "You, who?" ”

This girl looks a little thin, her skin is a little white, she seems to have not been out for a long time, she has never seen the sun, I am allergic to light, I look much healthier than her, and she is still wearing a long-sleeved T-shirt on a summer night.

"Sister, it's my sister."

The ghost boy fell from my back to me, and looked excitedly at the girl hiding behind the door, it was the joy of reunion after a long absence, and strangely enough, he just stood there, and did not pounce.

I pretended not to hear the voice of the ghost child, and said to the girl: "Eh, I, I'm Guo Xia's classmate, I just came to this city today, I thought I hadn't seen her for a long time, so let's come and see, is she at home?" ”

"You're my mother's classmate?" The girl looked me up and down, clearly unconvinced.

"Ah, I just look young." I said as sincerely as I could, "I'm almost forty this year." ”

"Then you can really take care of it, and you look like you're in your early twenties."

"Hehe, well maintained, well maintained." I smiled "modestly", afraid that she would not believe it, and said, "I also brought our graduation photos of that year, and I will show them to you." ”

I opened the bag and pretended to rummage through it, but in fact, there were no graduation photos, the address here was given by Qiu Shishi, and the mother's name was revealed by the ghost child, and I didn't know anything else.

"Hey, what about my photo, I obviously remember that I put it in before I came, and I want to show it to your mother, did I forget?" I closed my bag, "You see my memory is really, you just let your mother come out and see me, don't you know?" ”

"My mom, she's not here."

"Why can't you be here when you're all here?" I pretended to be surprised, "Why don't you give me her phone number and I'll contact her myself?" ”

The girl thought for a moment, opened the door, and smiled shyly at me: "This ...... Aunt? You come in and sit down. ”

I silently endured the title of "auntie", followed the girl into the house, and said to the ghost child next to me when she went to pour me tea: "Your sister is so naΓ―ve, she casually invited strangers into the house at night?" ”

But the ghost child looked at me in confusion, and his face could not hide his anxiety.
