The old woman, seeing that the young girl was ignoring her again, angrily walked away with her cane. All these young people are the same.
It seems like there are always things to do, and you can't spend more time with her, this old lady?
Seeing the old lady leave, Zhou An'an was about to shout, but then quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
Was I being pestered by this old lady, or was it because I was too easy to talk to?
At the station, no one paid any attention to the old lady. She should change her habit of meddling in other people's business.
Watching the old lady turn a corner and walk away, she finally let go of her hand and then said.
"Don't laugh at me! I'm also being tormented by this old lady. She keeps saying she can't find the money in her house and comes over several times."
At first, her son and daughter were willing to stay with her, but later they stopped showing up.
"And then you went to help find the money?" Lu Zhixia asked.
Zhou An'an nodded helplessly, "That's right. So I put on gloves and went there. Goodness, the old lady's house was a complete mess when I walked in. It was full of scraps and old things that she had collected."
You didn't see it! A rat scurried right past my feet; I almost threw up!"
Lu Zhixia already had a picture in her mind, and she suppressed a smile as she asked,
"And then what? How was it resolved?"
As Zhou An'an spoke, she gestured, "What else could I do? I went to the street and found the cleaning ladies and gave them money." Then she held out her right hand, "A total of five people! It took them two days to clean it up, and then they found the money in the old stove."
"That's outrageous! She actually hid the money there." Lu Zhixia couldn't help but laugh.
Zhou An'an laughed along with him, finding it quite amusing. Only after laughing did she realize...
"Song Weidong! Did he cause you any trouble? I only learned that man's name from the director."
"Let's go in and eat dumplings first. I brought five lunchboxes, I don't know if that's enough for your team."
Why did you cook so many dumplings?
“It’s not good for you to eat alone, I’m afraid others will have opinions.”
"That makes sense! Let's go inside and have some dumplings then."
Lu Zhixia liked Zhou An'an's cheerful personality and wondered what kind of family could raise such a free-spirited daughter.
I pushed the car to the entrance of the law enforcement team and parked it. Then I took the lunchbox out of the insulated box, and the surface of the lunchbox was still warm to the touch.
Zhou An'an casually opened the box and took a sniff. The authentic aroma of meat instantly whetted her appetite.
"Sister Xia! I love dumplings the most. You've hit the nail on the head. I can refuse other things, but if I don't eat these dumplings, it would be a disservice to my stomach."
"Then what are we waiting for? It's almost time to get off work, let's go in and eat dumplings first," Lu Zhixia urged.
Zhou An'an thought to herself that dumplings don't taste good when they get cold, but when she saw Lu Zhixia take out a plastic bag of garlic sauce and bright red chili oil from the box, she exclaimed in surprise,
"Xiaxia! I love you so much! This is all my love!"
Dumplings with garlic sauce and chili oil are a perfect match!
"Alright, stop fooling around! Come inside and eat dumplings!"
Lu Zhixia couldn't resist the little girl's coquettishness; it was as if a cute puppy had suddenly appeared before her.
She fawns over you, practically begging for your life right now.
They returned to the office with their lunchboxes, but there was hardly anyone working there anymore.
Everyone was waiting for the time to go eat, and then they saw them come back with their lunchboxes.
Director Zhang immediately went over and asked, "Xiao Zhou! What are you doing?"
Zhou An'an smiled and said to everyone, "Today you're all getting to enjoy some dumplings together, meat dumplings!"
Upon hearing this, the group immediately gathered around. Five lunchboxes were placed on the table, and even though there were many of them, each person could get two or three dumplings.
Everyone crowded around, no one wanting to be left out.
Seeing their expressions, Director Zhang shook his head helplessly and then said to Zhou An'an, "Come to my office after you finish eating."
After saying that, he turned and left without taking a single cloud with him.
Zhou An'an quickly caught up with the director who was about to leave and handed him a box of dumplings.
Director Zhang looked at the young woman in front of him. After several months of training at the grassroots level, she had become more perceptive, so he accepted the box of dumplings.
Zhou An'an turned around and saw that everyone wanted to touch the lunchbox, so he quickly squeezed through and picked the biggest one. Then he took Lu Zhixia's hand and went back to his desk to sit down. He opened the box again, and the smell was still very pungent.
"It smells so good! What filling did you make?"
Before Lu Zhixia could speak, the man behind her exclaimed, "Meat and egg dumplings! It's been so long since I've had so much meat! And this meat is especially delicious! It's like being in heaven!"
Upon hearing this, the people nearby quickly gathered around, and everyone started using their hands to pick up the dumplings, regardless of whether their hands had been washed or not.
The scene was spectacular; one box after another was opened and gone in no time, and three boxes of dumplings were gone.
They were still a little unsatisfied, their eyes fixed on Zhou An'an's lunchbox.
She was so frightened that she quickly shielded herself with her body, thinking that these guys were too outrageous; even if it were just dumplings filled with pure meat, they wouldn't be so surprised.
She picked up her chopsticks and took a bite; the delicious taste instantly smoothed her eyebrows.
So one after another, they quickly finished the box of dumplings and drank most of the water.
As for the other law enforcement officers, since they hadn't eaten enough, they decided to go out for a meal.
So only the two of them were left in the office.
Lu Zhixia knew her chance had come, so she said to Zhou An'an, who was wiping her mouth with a handkerchief,
"Actually, I came here this time because I have a favor to ask."
"Tell me! Are you going to catch them cheating again? I'll go with you. Just for this dumpling meal, I'll keep meddling in this mess!"
Zhou An'an said boldly that he had long forgotten the oath he had made before.
These dumplings are so delicious, what's the big deal about meddling in other people's business?
Is it difficult for her?
It's not difficult!
It's just a case of the fox borrowing the tiger's power; it's incredibly simple!
"No, I've decided to file a lawsuit, but before I do, there's something I need to clarify."
Lu Zhixia looked troubled; she didn't know if Zhou An'an could help with this.
Will helping her have any negative impact?
"Just tell me!" Zhou An'an took another big gulp of water, and seeing that she still hadn't spoken, urged her.
“If you don’t speak up now, they’ll be back soon, and you’ll miss your chance.”
"Then I say, if you can't help, don't make things too hard on yourself."
"Alright, go ahead and say it!"
"I suspect that my scumbag ex-husband switched my children, and the current child is not my child at all."
Zhou An'an had just picked up the cup but put it back down. Luckily, she hadn't drunk any water; this whole thing seemed too absurd.
"Sis, are you sure?"
"Do you know any way to determine if I am related to this child by blood? I don't know much about this, so I came here to ask you."
