26. Chapter 26
Aunt Li Mei was a little surprised and stopped to meet her.
Lu Zhongjun glanced at Anna who happened to come out of the door, and looked quite serious. After asking Aunt Li Mei about the situation, he said, "It was our failure to do a good job, which caused your family to suffer losses. I accept criticism from the public."
Aunt Li Mei quickly said, "What do you say? It's not easy for you comrades to be busy all year round. How can you be so embarrassed to bother you with this matter in our family--"
Lu Zhongjun went over and opened the rear door, and lightning bolted a chain on his neck jumped out of the car. Lu Zhongjun led lightning bolt over and said, "Auntie Li, I understand the situation. Your family has only two women, plus a child. It's the end of the year, and the public security is indeed worse than usual. This is a military dog, very smart, named Lightning bolt. I will lend you the house first, and I will be more safe tonight." After that, without waiting for Aunt Li Mei to agree, Luo Cheng asked Luo Cheng to lead him over and tie him to the yard. Lightning saw Anna, barking at her, shaking her head and waving her tail.
Aunt Li Mei was stunned for a moment and didn't come back to her senses.
"Aunt Li, let's do it first. I'll check it out. There is news to tell you that I'm leaving." After that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
"Captain Lu, it's cold, come in and have a tea first-"
Aunt Li Mei finally reacted, politely said, and then rushed to Anna who was leaning against the door, "Meimei, thank Captain Lu and Luo Gongan!"
As soon as the army appeared, they always had a serious face, as if they didn't know Anna at all. Anna resisted the feeling of wanting to laugh, walked over and said, "Thank you, Captain Lu. And Xiao Luo Public Security. Thank you for your hard work."
"It should be, it should be." Luo Cheng said hurriedly.
The Army Zhongjun's eyes stayed on Anna's slightly upturned lips for a few seconds, nodded slightly at her, turned around and left.
He was serious and serious. If his gloves were not left with Anna, Anna would have doubted whether she had seen a ghost that night.
Lu Zhongjun and Luo Cheng left, Aunt Li Mei's anger for a whole day finally got smooth. She made a meal and mixed some soup and took it to feed it to lightning.
"Meimei, this Captain Lu is quite thoughtful! Just because of his attitude, even if I can't catch the thief, I will admit it."
...
The next day, the police station came to the news and asked Aunt Li Mei to collect the stolen goods. The thief had already caught it, just living in a second-rate man nearby. At the end of the year, I had no money to steal something to exchange for the New Year. That night, except for Aunt Li Mei, I also went to steal several other places. Except for some food, the rest of the things that were thrown in Aunt Li Mei's convenience store were still there.
Anna did not accompany Aunt Li Mei to the police station. She went there alone. When she came back, she was very happy and praised the army of the Central Army. After another night, it was New Year's Eve.
This year, Chen Li and her family are going to celebrate the New Year. At noon, the couple brought Xiao Ni with some food. In the afternoon, Da Song went out to visit her, and Anna helped Li Mei and her daughter busy making dumplings in the kitchen to prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Chen Chunlei and Xiaoni were playing with lightning in the yard. When they heard the noise in the room, Aunt Li Mei talked to Chen Li about theft of the convenience store.
"...I used to hear people say that Captain Lu is not good, but I think it's just nonsense. People are obviously pretty good!"
Anna remembered the dozens of big steamed buns in Litun, the dormitory of the Army Central Army, and pretended to say casually: "He seems to be spending the New Year alone, right? I heard that he bought dozens of steamed buns before the canteen was on vacation and kept them."
Aunt Li Mei said, "Why don't he go home? How can he let him celebrate the New Year like this! Just make more dumplings and send them some to him when they are steamed. Anyway, he has helped us, so we can deliver some food like this, and people won't say anything."
That's what Anna thought, nodded and said yes. When the dumplings were steamed, they saw that they were about four or five o'clock. He probably had already returned to the dormitory, so he wrapped the food in a cotton jacket and cloth, and asked Xiaoni to send it with him. The two of them arrived at the edge of the dormitory building. Anna didn't go up by herself, so she told Xiaoni to take it to her location and asked Xiaoni to deliver it. She also specifically told her to tell her that it was her grandmother who asked her to deliver it.
After a while, Xiaoni came down with the dumplings and said that the dormitory door was closed and no one responded to knocking on the door.
When Anna saw someone coming out of the door on the bottom floor, she went up and asked, and the other party said, "Captain Lu, Director Liu and his daughter came here, so she asked him to celebrate the New Year."
Anna was stunned, and the female household registration policeman Liu Hongmei appeared in her mind.
"Cousin, what should I do if Jiaozi? Why don't I go and lock his door?"
Xiaoni raised her head and asked Anna.
"Go home! Take it back and eat it by yourself!"
Anna took the food and turned her head back with Xiaoni.
...
After the Chinese New Year, Li Hong and her husband returned to the county town, and Xiaoni stayed.
Hongshijing is a small place. Before the Lantern Festival in the first lunar month, the weather is not good, and it snows from time to time, so the neighbors visit each other to find dominoes to pass the time. Anna hasn’t been out all these days. At home, she is tutoring Chen Chunlei in English and helping Aunt Li Mei to watch the convenience store and ask her to play cards.
At noon that day, Aunt Li Mei was called to play cards after dinner. Anna sat in the convenience store and read a book she had not finished last year. Guo Yun came over to play, flirted with Xiao Ni with a flower rope, and lie on the edge of the stove to keep warm.
“Buy a pack of cigarettes.”
A person came outside the window of the convenience store and stood under the snow shed, stomping the snow on his feet.
Guo Yun looked up and recognized the army army from the police station.
Since the last incident happened, Guo Yun hid at home for a long time after coming back. He didn't come out until recently. He slowly showed up again. Suddenly, he was still a little scared when he saw the army coming, so he stood up quickly.
"Li Mei, I have something to do, let's leave first-" After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.
When Lightning saw the Army Central Army, he stood up happily from the stove, shook his head and tail at him.
Anna raised her eyelids: "What cigarette?"
"Whatever." Lu Zhongjun looked at her and took out the money.
"Sorry, there is no randomness here."
The Army Central Army was stunned.
"Bai Furong."
"It's gone."
The Army Zhongjun glanced at the smoke in a conspicuous position and paused.
"Then the big front door."
"It's gone!"
"Welcome the Spring."
"It's gone, either!"
The army of the Central Army frowned and said, "What's wrong? Don't you sell me?"
"How dare you? Someone has booked it. Sorry, go to another place to buy it!"
After Anna finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued to read the book.
"What do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. I just sell it to you without cigarettes."
The Army Zhongjun seemed to be choked, staring at Anna with a cold expression, with a very ugly face.
Xiao Ni was a little confused, so she stared at Lu Zhongjun and Anna facing each other through the window. Suddenly her eyes lit up and pointed outside and said, "Cousin, my mother is here!"
