Chapter 63: Brother, Have You Found a Partner?
The next day, before dawn, Gu Yuehuai woke up.
She got up and put on her coat, yawned heavily, and the police came to check the letter of introduction more than ten times that night, and almost as soon as she fell asleep, she began to knock on the door, causing her to get up frequently to open the door, and she didn't sleep well at all.
Yan Shaotang was still asleep, Gu Yuehuai took out the bun in the Sumeru space first, took twenty eggs and put them in the basket, and took them when he was about to visit Cheng Ling.
After Gu Yuehuai came out of the space, she went to take back the pants she washed yesterday, and brought a little dampness, but the autumn pants inside were already dry, and it shouldn't be a big problem to wear them apart.
It's not that she is unwilling to buy new pants for Yan Shaotang, but the ready-to-wear clothes that are not sold at all in this era are all made by the people themselves with cloth tickets, and they may not be able to wear a new set of clothes all year round.
At this time, most families have many children, and the eldest wears the second one, who has the spare money to buy ready-to-wear clothes?
When Gu Yuehuai took back his clothes, Yan Shaotang had already opened his eyes.
She lay motionless on the bed, her eyes were not focused, she slowly moved her head when she heard the sound, and when she saw Gu Yuehuai, she screamed, Gu Yuehuai understood it and took the urinal to her.
Although the little girl has no ability to take care of herself, she at least knows how to call people.
After Yan Shaotang finished going to the toilet, Gu Yuehuai took out the washed clothes and put them on for her, Yan Shaotang didn't know how to cooperate, but he also sat obediently and let Gu Yuehuai dress him.
"When you get home, my sister will pull the cloth to make new clothes for you to wear, okay?" After dressing up, Gu Yuehuai combed Yan Shaotang's hair again, tied new braids, and after cleaning it, the little girl became more and more red and white, and the pink was carved jade.
Yan Shaotang naturally didn't answer, but after Gu Yuehuai put on her shoes, he held her hand tightly, and followed suit, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with Gu Yuehuai's footsteps if he was one step slower.
Gu Yuehuai smiled and patted her head, let her sit at the table, picked up the warm meat bun and ate it.
Two people have a meat bun, one person has a bowl of space well water, although it is a little mismatched, but the well water is sweet in the mouth, and the aftertaste is endless, and even the limbs and hundreds of bones are hot.
After breakfast, Gu Yuehuai was ready to take Yan Shaotang to the police station, and always asked Cheng Ling's residence.
Yan Shaotang obediently took her hand, following wherever he went, like a little tail.
The police station and the guest house are not far away.
"Huh? Is that you? The police were stunned, obviously remembering Gu Yuehuai and Yan Shaotang.
Gu Yuehuai nodded, and said with a chuckle: "It's us, comrade policeman, I came here today to ask, where does the kind man who saved my sister yesterday live?" I would like to bring my sister to the door to thank you in person. ”
The police sighed for a while, there are really not many good comrades like this kind of good comrades.
He flipped out yesterday's transcript and said: "That comrade's name is Cheng Ling, he lives in Building 12, No. 231, Qiguang District, and he saw it in the hospital yesterday. ”
"Thank you." Gu Yuehuai thanked the police, took the address and Yan Shaotang and left the police station.
She stood at the door of the police station, looking at the three words "Crying Light Zone" written on the paper, and her eyebrows were slightly raised.
This is the famous "rich community" in Zhoulan City, and the houses are small western-style buildings left over from the Republic of China.
Gu Yuehuai thought of the brand-new Haishi brand watch on her wrist and was slightly silent.
Although she knew that Cheng Ling was not an ordinary person, she didn't expect him to live in the "Crying Light District", but why did the people who lived in this kind of place sell their watches?
Gu Yuehuai shook her head, carrying the basket in one hand and Yan Shaotang in the other, and walked along the path to the Crying Light District.
Go early and come back early, and maybe you can take the train home overnight today.
There is some distance in the Crying Light Zone, and it has not been there for about thirty minutes.
Yan Shaotang didn't complain about being bitter or tired, and when Gu Yuehuai reacted, the little girl's face was already white.
"Shaotang? Shaotang? Gu Yuehuai called her a few times, with a look of apology in her eyes, she can walk these days, exercise more, and lose weight faster, but she forgot that Yan Shaotang is just a four-year-old girl.
She has suffered a lot along the way, and her physical fitness has been greatly reduced, so she naturally can't keep up with her.
Yan Shaotang grabbed Gu Yuehuai's hand tightly.
"Come on, I'll carry you on my back." Gu Yuehuai carried the basket, half-squatted down, and motioned for Yan Shaotang to climb up.
The little girl tugged at the corners of her clothes and didn't move, looking stupid and stupid.
Gu Yuehuai sighed, had to bend down and pick her up, walked for more than ten minutes, and finally arrived at the Crying Light Zone.
This residential area is very clean, every household is detached, Gu Yuehuai looked for it in rows, and finally found Building 12 at No. 231, she knocked on the door, and before long, a thin boy ran out of the house.
He stood inside the door and looked at Gu Yuehuai: "Who are you looking for?" ”
Gu Yuehuai tried to speak as lightly as possible: "Cheng Ling, is Comrade Cheng at home?" ”
"Big brother?" The boy's eyes lit up, and instead of opening the door directly, he shouted into the house: "Big brother! Elder brother! Someone is looking for you! It's a beautiful older sister! ”
The corners of Gu Yuehuai's lips curved slightly, and Yan Shaotang was put down.
As soon as the little girl stood firm, she tugged at the corner of her dress, and there was fear of the unfamiliar environment on her little face.
Gu Yuehuai squatted down and patted her back gently, and whispered comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, thank you to my brother and we'll go home, okay?" ”
Yan Shaotang stuck to her, and her peach blossom eyes were full of out-of-focus dazedness.
At this time, Cheng Ling's surprised voice suddenly sounded inside the gate: "It's you?" Comrade Gu! Shaotang? ”
Then the door was opened from the inside: "Come in and rest!" ”
Gu Yuehuai nodded, got up with Yan Shaotang in her arms, and followed Cheng Ling into the courtyard.
This detached yard is very luxurious, and people who can live in such a house in the 70s must have an ordinary home.
Along the way, in addition to the thin boy who greeted him with a smile, there was also an older girl, but the girl's expression was too vigilant, even repulsive, she frowned and looked at Cheng Ling: "Brother, have you found a partner?" ”
Her fingers were tightly twisted together during the questioning, nervous and angry.
Cheng Ling's face was a little embarrassed, and he said in a calm tone: "Don't talk nonsense!" After speaking, he turned his head to look at the boy: "Cheng Pu, send your sister back to the house." ”
Cheng Pu nodded a little frightened, grabbed the girl's arm and walked upstairs.
The girl seemed to be a little reluctant and wanted to stay and stare at Gu Yuehuai, but her strength was not great, and after some tugging, she gradually disappeared from the field of vision of several people.
Cheng Ling said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my sister is a little suspicious after experiencing the family change." ”
Gu Yuehuai shook his head, handed over the eggs in the basket, and said, "Comrade Cheng, thank you, you were injured to save my sister, I don't have any good things here, a little egg, I hope you don't dislike it." ”
Cheng Ling hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, how can this be embarrassing?" When this happens, anyone will save people! ”
The two of them refused, and suddenly, there was an extremely noisy sound of slamming the door outside the courtyard, hearing this movement, Yan Shaotang's eyes were even more frightened, and he hugged Gu Yuehuai's waist and didn't let go.
Gu Yuehuai frowned and looked at Cheng Ling, she didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing when she came to say thank you.
A touch of embarrassment flashed across Cheng Ling's face, and he stood in place and didn't know what to say.
