First of all, there are not many relics of the old man's wife, a few clothes, a few photos, as well as their marriage certificate, some simple jewelry and insoles, which were all stored by the old man in a wooden box next to the closet.

With some doubts, Anxin continued to organize the old man's belongings.

Soon, Anxin discovers the truth. There is a book "Quartet of Destiny" in the drawer, and Anxin knows that this is Han Zhijun's long story, and the TV series "Fence Woman and Dog" is adapted from it. This is a book about the fate of women, which is very different from the "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Historical Records" that the old man usually likes to read.

Anxin realized something, opened the book, and sure enough, found a photo in the middle. Above is a plain-looking woman with a sweet smile and a look in her forties.

After a long time, the photograph will be yellowed, but judging by the degree of wear and tear of the photograph, the old man should have looked at the photograph often before he died.

Anxin can perceive that in these long decades, the old man is not without his own emotional needs, but he finally failed to get together with the woman in the photo, and what happened during this period, Anxin is no longer known.

At the bottom of the drawer, Anxin found a notebook, and after taking a photo and making a record, Anxin hurriedly flipped through it.

Fortunately, this is indeed the old man's diary, and although the date and time are not marked, the old man's wife is mentioned in many places. The diary is thick, more than 300 pages.

Anxin looked very carefully, and after more than three hours of sorting and recording, he finally understood the story of the old man and his wife.

In fact, in the early years, Chen Lao's family was very wealthy, and he was considered a high-class family in Tianfeng. The old man and his wife Zheng Xiuxia met when they were very young, because of family problems, the old man had been studying in a private school when he was a child, Zheng Xiuxia would make some strange "delicacies" for Chen Lao to eat every time, but every time he secretly left a note at the door of the private school, and secretly left. It wasn't until the age of eighteen that the formal relationship with Zheng Xiuxia gradually increased.

Zheng Xiuxia is an ordinary farmer, her family background is not good, and her father Zheng Cai is still a short-term worker in Chen's family. Therefore, when Chen Lao proposed to marry Zheng Xiuxia, the family elders strongly objected, and even did not hesitate to expel Zheng Cai's family from Tianfeng.

The Zheng family was depressed, and it didn't take long for Zheng Cai to die, and Zheng Xiuxia returned to Tianfeng to work as a part-time worker in order to make a living.

Chen Hai has been looking for Zheng Xiuxia for a long time but has never been missing, he has been exposed to new ideas since he was a child, he is very opposed to arranged marriages in the family, and the relationship with the family is becoming more and more tense.

It wasn't until later, in that special era, that the Chen family on the rich side collapsed, and Chen Lao also became a labor prisoner because of some problems.

During that time, Chen almost committed suicide several times. But it was in that situation that Zheng Xiuxia found him and promised to wait for him to come out.

Since then, Zheng Xiuxia has often gone to deliver meals to Chen Lao, and even secretly hid pens and paper in the lunch box. If it weren't for the catharsis of writing, Chen Lao was not sure if he would have come out alive.

This continued for three years, and Chen Lao was finally released. At that time, the two were already twenty-five years old, and after Chen Lao was free, he married Zheng Xiuxia as soon as possible.

The two had a son, and that was the best experience for Chen Lao. Although the life is poor, but with his wife and son, life is full of warmth and beauty.

But the good times didn't last long, when his son was three years old, he unfortunately died because of malformed meningitis, and Chen Lao didn't even have time to leave a photo for the child.

In the wooden box of the drawer, there was a worn belly pocket, the fabric was already very fragile, and it was obviously the relic of the old man's son.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and after another two years, his wife Zheng Xiuxia soon fell ill and died because of years of hard work and missing her son. The old man thought about committing suicide, but the last thing his wife said before she died was: "For me and my son, you must live well." ”

More than ten years have passed, and when the old man was fifty years old, he did meet a nice woman.

They are of the same age, and the other party is also a well-read woman, and the two have a lot of common language. But after accompanying each other for a while, the old man finally failed to give each other an explanation.

"I don't think it's a sentence.

is what you think,

The autumn wind has gone with the fallen leaves, and it is difficult to break the water again, and the love is not over.

This heart and this love are full.

Where is sorrow? ”

For more than ten years, the old man has long been accustomed to staying with his wife and children, for the old man, it is not a responsibility or a burden, but the whole of his life. Therefore, when the woman was infinitely close to herself, the old man did not choose to go further in the end.

The loyalty and perseverance of the older generation may never be understood by our generation, but in the face of this vigorous and insipid feeling, I am shocked and admired.

The good news is that Anxin finally got the information she wanted, and the old man's life and past were also recorded by her in detail, which was enough to give the old man an explanation. But unfortunately, An An carefully read all the diaries and did not find the burial place of Zheng Xiuxia.

Could it be that the old man's last wish is really going to be frustrated?

When the time came to three o'clock in the morning, Anxin had already summarized all the text information left by the old man, but still did not find the burial location of Zheng Xiuxia.

There is a lot of information, and I am at ease and carefully combed through them one by one......

At five o'clock in the morning, Anxin fell asleep on the sofa, and when she woke up, it was already nine o'clock in the morning the next day.

Yang Hongwei knocked on the door to wake up the peace of mind in her sleep, and she got up and opened the door suddenly.

"Don't embarrass yourself too much, come with me to dinner first."

Yang Hongwei dragged Anxin to the breakfast shop at the door, he ordered a bowl of soy milk, a fritter, and took some small pickles, for Tianfeng people, this is the most delicious breakfast. Tea eggs are also a must, and that's Anxin's favorite.

In fact, Yang Hongwei was specially assigned by the leader to inquire about the progress, but at the first glance of the reassuring state, Yang Hongwei's words were stuck in his throat and couldn't speak.

Knowing that Anxin must have not slept all night yesterday, Yang Hongwei also felt distressed. Before leaving, I bought a few cans of Red Bull in the supermarket next to me.

Yang Hongwei understands Anxin's character, and if she doesn't complete the character smoothly, she will definitely not give up, so Yang Hongwei didn't say those nonsense about paying attention to rest.

"Do you need help?" Sending peace of mind to the door of Chen's home, Yang Hongwei asked her.

"No, you can't help much, don't worry, I'm fine."

From nine o'clock to twelve o'clock, Anxin has been combing through the information that has been sorted out, but three hours have passed, and Anxin has not been able to find Zheng Xiuxia's burial place as he wished.

"It shouldn't be."

"Impossible."

"Chen Lao must have left some information, why can't he find it?"

Anxin was already a little anxious, in fact, Chen Lao did write Zheng Xiuxia's burial location in his diary, but when someone from the hospital carried away the old man's body before, he accidentally knocked over the faded handwriting of the water cup on the table, and now it is completely indistinguishable.

At noon, Director Chen came in person. Although she ostensibly came to deliver food to Anxin, Anxin knew that Director Chen had also come to see her work progress.

"It's okay, it's just a failure, the little girl is resilient, and we will cooperate with the community in the future where there is a need, don't worry too much." Director Chen also comforted him.

He has been working in the community, and it is the first time he has seen someone who is so serious and meticulous in his work, and he can also see that Anxin has not slept all night before he seems to be a little sluggish.

In the afternoon, Anxin sat on the sofa and took a nap, watching the time pass minute by minute, and her heart became more and more anxious. If she can't find useful information tomorrow morning to confirm the burial location of Zheng Xiuxia, Director Chen will ask the criminal investigator to help.

In any case, that would disturb Chen Lao's purity, which of course Anxin didn't want to see.
