After Du Fei left, Granny Jia's fat face poked out from the door of her house immediately, and she said in a thief-like way: "I'll just say that idiot has no heart!"

Speaking triumphantly, he walked towards the pile of rags, and stretched out his hand to pull out two pieces of cloth that still looked very strong.

"Hey, use these two pieces of cloth tightly, enough to make a cloth shirt for the child."

"Mom~" the pretty widow lowered her voice, and her tone was a little dissatisfied: "You keep your voice down so that people can hear me, what have I become!"

Granny Jia rolled her eyes, and glanced at her daughter-in-law with disdain: "Hmph, don't be so wrong with me, you have been in the factory for a few years, and you are still a first-class worker? As long as you put more effort in the factory, now a The monthly salary is more than 30 yuan."

Widow Qin suddenly felt helpless and aggrieved.

She went to work in the rolling mill, purely to keep ducks on the shelves.

A little widow who was born in a rural area and hadn't studied for a few days. She has no knowledge in her mind and no strength in her hands. It's no wonder that she can handle the machine tool in the workshop with ease.

When Du Fei got home, he didn't cook any more dinner.

Just drink hot tea, eat a few snacks bought during the day, wait until 5:30, change clothes and go out.

Go to the front yard first and knock on the door of the third grandfather's house.

"Who is it?" The third mother asked loudly.

"I, Xiao Du in the backyard." Du Fei responded and pushed open the door.

He was eating in the room, but he didn't go in. He said at the door: "Third Master, I have something urgent tonight, so I can borrow your bicycle."

The third master deserves to be called Lao Kou, and when he heard that he wanted to borrow a bicycle, he immediately became furious.

That was his treasure, and he was busy refusing before he could swallow the cornbread in his mouth, but Du Fei smiled and took out 30 cents from his pocket: "I know your rules, it's not in vain."

The third master narrowed his eyes, and immediately swallowed the words that came to his lips. He smiled and went to get the car keys, while reminding: "You can be careful."

"Come on, third master, don't worry, I promise to return it to Zhao." Du Fei swore to take the key: "You eat, I'll go first." After finishing speaking, he went to open the bicycle parked at the door and kicked up the ladder , pushed out the door.

The north wind howled on the street, probably a cold wave came, and the temperature dropped sharply as soon as it got dark.

Du Fei grabbed the cold handlebar, regretting not wearing gloves.

The distance from the Siheyuan to the family compound of the Municipal Bureau is not close. Fortunately, the road was deserted at night, and the bicycle was kicked into the air. It took more than half an hour to finally reach the destination.

Du Fei didn't know where his 'third uncle' lived, so he went directly to the gate.

There are guards here, and when they found that Du Fei was unfamiliar, they immediately cheered up.

"Comrade, hello!" After two or three meters away, Du Fei stopped and said with a smile: "I have an urgent matter to find Chen Zhongyuan from the Public Security Department. Can you please contact me, that is my third uncle."

Although this guard is on guard, he is also the logistics staff of the Public Security Bureau. The leaders, big and small, in the bureau are generally in their hearts.

Hearing Chen Zhongyuan's name, and it was from the Public Security Department, he must be Deputy Director Chen.

Looking carefully at Du Fei again, he saw that he was tall and upright, wearing a Chinese tunic suit and brand new leather shoes, he was also very decent, not like a gangster.

Even so, it is impossible to let people in casually.

The guard asked Du Fei's name, returned to the sentry box and made an internal call to Chen Zhongyuan to confirm, before letting Du Fei in.

In the compound, there are all red brick residential buildings newly built after the founding of the People's Republic of China. There are six buildings in total.

Chen Zhongyuan's home is on the third floor of the fourth unit of the third building.

Du Fei parked his bicycle downstairs and went upstairs with his things.

On the third floor, the door on the left is open, and there is a very beautiful young woman in her thirties standing inside the door.

Seeing Du Fei coming up, the young woman sized him up and said with a smile, "Xiao Fei, you've grown so tall in ten years!"

Du Fei realized that this should be Chen Zhongyuan's daughter-in-law. He hurriedly called Third Aunt, and handed over the gift of cigarettes and alcohol, and at the same time recalled some memories deep in his mind.

This third aunt is called Shen Jingya, and she has a special background. Before liberation, she was the concubine of a big capitalist, and she was two years older than Chen Zhongyuan. When they got married, there was a lot of twists and turns.

"You come here as soon as you come, what are you carrying?" Shen Jingya looked at the gift Du Fei brought and frowned.

Not too little, but too much.

Turning around complainingly, he said to the room: "Old Chen, look at Xiao Fei!"

At this time, Chen Zhongyuan also came from behind.

He was wearing a light blue long pajamas, he was about the same size as Du Fei, and he looked a little like Du Fei.

Because he was not wearing a police uniform, Chen Zhongyuan at this time was a little less majestic than Du Fei's impression, and a little more handsome and gentle.

There are two children behind him, blinking their big eyes, looking at Du Fei curiously.

Du Fei grinned and called Third Uncle.

"Let's talk first." Chen Zhongyuan nodded, glanced at the gift, but said nothing else.

This building is different from the courtyard, it looks much cleaner.

The living room has an area of ​​fifteen to six square meters. Although the floor is not tiled or anything, it is painted with light green paint like the wall enclosure. There are sofas, coffee tables, and tall and short cabinets.

The lamp is not an ordinary tungsten bulb, but a white fluorescent lamp.

Du Fei changed his slippers, followed him to the sofa and sat down, the spring under his buttocks compressed, making a 'creaking' sound.

The third aunt was busy making tea, and introduced the two children to Du Fei.

The boy is eight years old, named Chen Jianshe, and the girl is six years old, named Chen Xiaoxue.

The two children called Du Fei brother, but their eyes were fixed on the bag of white rabbit toffee.

Shen Jingya took two pieces of candy and sent the two children to the house to play.

There are only three adults left in the living room.

Chen Zhongyuan got straight to the point and asked Du Fei what happened.

He came to the door at night, carrying a gift, obviously asking for help.

In front of Chen Zhongyuan, Du Fei didn't hide anything, just poured beans into the bamboo tube and told the whole story.

After listening to Du Fei's narration, Chen Zhongyuan and his wife showed incredible expressions.

Especially Chen Zhongyuan, his original impression of this 'nephew' was very ordinary, dull, timid, stubborn, and somewhat bookish.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, he showed extraordinary calmness and determination.

Chen Zhongyuan was silent for a moment, thinking carefully about the whole process, then looked at Du Fei with great interest and said, "You were bullied, why didn't you come to me earlier?"

Du Fei scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, and said embarrassedly: "That~ Uncle San, I don't want to cause you trouble."

"Hmph! What trouble is it? I don't think you consider my third uncle as your own family." Chen Zhongyuan reprimanded: "You've been bullied so much, I don't care who cares about you! "

Du Fei laughed foolishly, but didn't answer the question to distinguish.

As for his own family, he didn't take it seriously either. After all, the uncle is not a real uncle, and there is a relationship between inside and outside, not to mention that he has not had much contact in the past ten years. Even if Chen Zhongyuan really has this kind of relative in his heart, he will have to move around frequently in the future to get close.
