They had already left the state-run hotel. Lu Yang led them to stand by the roadside, and An An circled around her parents.
"Hello comrade, we just left something at the restaurant, a green organ."
"You left something behind? We're not responsible for keeping it safe. Go check it yourself to see if it's still there."
In this era, waiters only served the food and did nothing else; they just waved her off and told her to find it herself.
This restaurant is always very popular. As soon as a table is empty, someone comes in to fill it. The seats they just sat in have already been filled by another table.
Lu Ronghui walked over and asked, "Hello comrades, have you noticed something green?"
Her voice paused, and when the children saw someone coming, they immediately hid what they were holding behind their backs, but Lu Ronghui had already seen it; it was the organ they had dropped.
"What is that? We didn't see anything. Hurry up, don't delay our meal."
Seeing that she came in alone, and dressed so nicely, she must come from a well-off family, so she probably wouldn't be too embarrassed to argue with them.
The old lady of the house immediately took the initiative and tried to drive her away.
But Lu Ronghui had already seen it, so how could she possibly leave?
"We left our toy here and didn't take it. It's the one your child is holding. We hope you can return it to us."
"I told you there's nothing here, get out of here."
Lu Ronghui spent five years in the countryside in her previous life. What kind of people hadn't she seen?
“That thing belongs to us. You’ll know once you have your child take it out.”
"What do you mean it's yours? It doesn't matter if it has your name on it; I bought it for my child."
The child's mother noticed how nicely she was dressed and how all the men in the family were staring at her, and her tone was very unpleasant.
She's so young, yet she already knows how to seduce men outside.
There were already many people watching Lu Ronghui, and with their argument, even more people peeked out, which is why the waiter came over.
"What's wrong? Don't cause trouble here."
"Comrade, we just sat down, and someone came out of nowhere and said we took her things. The things clearly belong to our child."
The waiter glanced at their child, who silently took out something hidden behind his back.
"Is this yours?"
The waiter frowned. Lu Ronghui had just gone to find her and said she had left the organ here. This thing is an organ.
"Then tell me what it is? Where did you buy it? How much did it cost?"
The family was stunned when they held that thing; no one had ever seen anything like it before.
"Bought at a department store, it's called... it's called, two yuan."
Wei Hui also heard their argument and walked over to Lu Ronghui's side.
"You don't even know what this thing is called or how much it costs, yet you claim it's yours."
I clearly saw this comrade's family member holding this thing.
The old lady glared at us. "We just forgot. No, it was a gift from someone else. How would we know what it was? We just gave it to our child to play with."
"How can you be so unreasonable, old lady? We saw it while we were eating over there. It was a little girl in a dress holding this toy."
"I……"
Wei Hui suddenly turned serious and said, "This toy is called an accordion. It costs more than ten yuan in a department store. Since you two both claim it as yours, you might as well go to the police station."
"It just so happens that I work for the Public Security Bureau, and everyone at this table is a witness. Let's go there."
Wei Hui directly fabricated a very high price.
When they heard that this thing actually cost more than ten yuan, the family was dumbfounded, not to mention that he suddenly became serious and looked like he was serious.
"Excuse me, comrade, children want toys whenever they see them. This isn't ours, please take it back."
The man, who hadn't spoken until now, stepped forward and, feigning a stern face, scolded his wife and mother.
He snatched the organ from the child's hand and was about to hand it to Lu Ronghui with a smile when Wei Hui glanced at him and took it from him.
I'm sorry.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, the waiter headed to the kitchen. Wei Hui's two friends suddenly raised their eyebrows at each other, and then silently returned to their table.
Thank you, comrade.
Lu Ronghui apologized to Wei Hui, saying that if he hadn't stood up and scared them with his stern face, they probably wouldn't have been able to get their things back so quickly.
Wei Hui handed her the things, and the two walked towards the restaurant entrance together. He stopped when he heard this, glanced at Lu Ronghui, and Lu Ronghui looked at him strangely.
Is it not enough to just express gratitude verbally? Should we give him something tangible?
"You're welcome, Comrade Lu."
As expected, she didn't remember who he was. Wei Hui suddenly found it a bit funny; this was the first time someone hadn't even remembered his name.
"You know me?"
Lu Ronghui also hesitated and stopped, glancing at him a few more times.
"Yanghe Village, Zhou Han."
"Is it you?"
Lu Ronghui finally remembered who he was; back then, many people came to Yanghe Village to investigate Zhou Han's smuggling activities.
However, during that time she was caught in an indescribable excitement and joy, hoping only to see Zhou Han and Bai Rongjun suffer as soon as possible, and didn't pay any attention to what the investigators looked like.
"Wei Hui, the Hui from 'morning glow'."
Lu Ronghui nodded. They were about to reach the restaurant entrance when she was about to say goodbye to Comrade Wei, whom she had met once before. Unexpectedly, Wei Hui had already stopped and was looking at her.
"...Thank you, Comrade Wei."
The family of three was standing at the restaurant entrance looking across the street, but Xiao Hui still hadn't come out after waiting for so long.
Lu Yang picked An An up and they went back into the restaurant.
"Little Aunt"
Lu Ronghui happened to run into them at the door and handed the accordion to An'an, who immediately hugged it.
Lu Yang had already walked a few steps when he suddenly turned around and asked, "Who is that man?"
“He’s an investigator. We’ve met a few times in Yanghe Village. Just now, some people inside picked up our toys and didn’t want to return them, so he helped me.”
"Investigator?"
Regarding the previous incident with Zhou Han, he said his surname was Wei and his name was Wei Hui.
Lu Ronghui didn't take today's events to heart at all. An'an got the accordion and was about to get down when Lu Ronghui took her hand and the two of them walked ahead.
Lu Yang and Song Qing exchanged a glance, and they both remembered who Wei Hui was.
All they knew was that Wei Hui had taken a liking to Xiao Hui and went to Aunt Tian to ask her to propose marriage, but after being rejected, nothing more was said. They didn't know that Wei Hui and Wei Lan were related.
Song Qing raised an eyebrow and smiled. Lu Yang's expression turned sour. He gritted his teeth and looked back again. Unexpectedly, Wei Hui was still standing at the door looking this way. His face became even uglier.
Wei Hui originally thought that Lu Ronghui didn't remember who he was, but she should know that someone with his name had asked someone to propose marriage to her. However, he didn't expect that she would not react when she heard his name.
