Chapter 270

At this time, Qiu Xia had returned to the capital for some time.

Under my father's arrangement, I have gone on several blind dates, but without exception, they all failed for various reasons.

She finally found a free day and came to the address Lu Qingyang gave her.

This is an old city, and Qiu Xia had to go around many corners before finding this address.

I knocked on the door for a long time but there was no response until the neighbor next door poked his head out.

"Miss Xiao, who are you looking for?"

"It's like this. Someone asked me to deliver something. Is this family not at home?"

"He hasn't been back for several years. I heard he went abroad. Look at the yard, it's all run-down."

Qiu Xia looked through the window and saw that the yard was indeed very messy. It seemed that no one had lived there for some time.

She sighed in disappointment, "Thank you, Auntie."

"You're welcome. I didn't help you with anything." But the gossipy girl continued to ask, "Who are you to this family?"

"It's like this, I know a friend, and the address her father left is right here, let me take a look."

As smart as my mother is, she has already guessed some of the problems.

"You mean? When this man was sent to the countryside as an educated youth, he abandoned his wife and children in the countryside and came back to the city?"

Qiu Xia didn't expect that this girl was so powerful that she could even guess all this.

"That's not what I said."

"There are so many things like this. You don't have to be shy about it. My son has been to the countryside before. I told him about these things when he came back. It's normal. I just feel sorry for the child."

The mother thought about it carefully, and then said, "Give me the contact address. When this family comes back, I will find a way to contact you."

"Auntie, you are so kind-hearted."

"I just simply cannot stand this kind of behavior. Don't worry, auntie won't lie to you."

"Then thank you very much. If you have any news, please contact me locally, or call me. Do you have the number listed here?"

"no problem."

At this time, telephone calls had already been made to many places in the capital.

Before leaving, Qiu Xia took another look at the place and then slowly turned around and left.

Unexpectedly, just over a month after leaving, a tall middle-aged man came back with his luggage, accompanied by his wife and two daughters.

Some of the girls looked to be two years old, and some of the boys looked to be a few years old.

"This is the house my parents bought for me in Beijing. It can be lived in after some cleaning."

The middle-aged woman next to him looked disdainful: "Doesn't your company allocate housing? Living here? It's quite far from the office."

"Isn't it my turn yet? You know there are a lot of things to do at work, so there must be a first come first served system!"

"Humph, I finally returned home, and I'm still being treated like this."

The girl next to her saw her mother like this and quickly took her hand, "Mom, this yard is also very nice and clean. I like it very much. Just clean it up. Don't be angry!"

"My daughter is still well-behaved."

The little boy next to him also came over: "Mom, I am also very sensible, and I don't dislike this place."

The seemingly happy family walked into the yard happily.

Neighbor Zhang looked around for a long time, muttering, "Look, this is really unfortunate. The girl left not long ago and this family came back."

And it looked like a family of four. Zhang Niang hesitated for a long time and did not dare to go to that family. She hurriedly borrowed the phone next door.

As soon as Qiu Xia got home, the phone rang. She picked up the phone and heard the voice on the other end.

The good news is that the person should be back.

The bad news is that it wasn't just one person who came back, it was a whole family.

Qiu Xia hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to write down all the facts and send the letter to Lu Qingyang first to see how he was going to deal with the matter.

Mother Qiu discovered that her daughter was secretly writing a letter and asked suspiciously:

"You can just write the letter, why are you doing it so secretly? Are you still in contact with Hu Shengli?"

Qiu Xia was speechless: "What? They have been arrested and sent to labor camps. They may even be shot. You are still saying this to me."

"Then why are you writing secretly from us? Why can't you write it openly?"

Qiu Xia sighed lightly and had no intention of hiding it from her mother.

"I met a girl there. Her father was an educated youth who went to the countryside. Her fiancé asked me to find out about her father's recent situation. I learned some information a few days ago and then I was ready to write a letter to inform them. There is nothing hidden. If you don't believe me, just read it!"

Qiu Xia handed the letter over directly, and Qiu's mother read it once before feeling relieved.

"But the girl you mentioned is also quite pitiful. Where is her mother?"

“No more.”

Mother Qiu shook her head: "There are too many cases like this. Basically, those people will not recognize abandoned girls. You should stop getting entangled with those people in remote places. Don't worry too much. When you have free time, think more about yourself, go on blind dates, and find a stable and reliable person to marry. That's the serious thing."

"Mom, what are you talking about? They are my good friends, why can't I contact them? I'm not meddling in other people's business. I'm just repaying a favor, okay?

I injured my leg here, and it was that girl who changed the bandage for me. She is so pretty and amazing. And her fiancée is also from here. Maybe she can come back someday! ”

Qiu's mother could not deny it: "The educated youth who went to the countryside to get married had two choices: to abandon their wives and return home, or to stay there and become a country bumpkin. Either way, those people are not worth associating with."

Qiu Xia didn't want to talk to her mother anymore: "No, you said it, and you read the letter, so you should be relieved. Get out now!"

After sending her mother away, Qiu Xia found two new sets of 놀ラ吉 dresses from the room, one set of 18-inch and the other set of 18-inch.

It was a set she prepared for Chen Mo and Fatty, and she also found some popular lipsticks in Beijing and prepared to send them over.

Unfortunately, she has never found the vanishing cream that Shen Mo used, which was so effective.

At this time, in a family in the military district courtyard.

An eight-year-old lady wearing glasses was helping her daughter-in-law collect old newspapers.

"Look at those useless things, clean them up. Your father will be able to be discharged from the hospital in two days."

The middle-aged woman responded, "I see." and continued to pack up the newspapers.

Suddenly, he found a report in an inconspicuous corner of last year's newspaper.

There was also a very ugly photo attached, but the woman still saw the clues.

"Mom, come and take a look. This guy above is much younger. He looks exactly like our Zhong Yun. At first glance, I thought it was him."

The old lady's hand suddenly trembled: "What did you say?"
