Single Mom in the Eighties

Chapter 26: Missing (Second update)

At noon, Aunt Hua cooked a pot of delicious corn. The corn was the first to be planted in his own yard. It was very tender, and it contained a bag of water in one bite. It was very sweet. Kangkang gritted his teeth and gnawed on two of them, leaving a large piece of corn husk.

"Eat a la carte", Yan Ruxu put a bowl of stew in front of Kangkang, "It's very delicious."

The random stew is stewed with tomatoes, eggplants, green peppers, and potatoes from our own yard. They are all plants of the nightshade family. They can be eaten as vegetables or meals. They are sour and fragrant.

The couple had just finished eating when they heard someone knocking at the corner door.

Kangkang was going to sleep in the main room, but he got excited when he heard the knock on the door: "Mom, mom, there is a knock on the door, let's go and open the door."

Yan Ruxu took Kangkang to unlock the lock, walked through the iron fence door, came to the corner door, looked out along the crack of the door, saw the driver Xiao Liang, and opened the door.

Yan Liangshen's car was parked not far away, Xiao Liang took two boxes from the trunk, smiled, Yan Ruxu nodded, and said, "I brought you two boxes of fruit, one box of white magnolia melon, one box of Cantaloupe, put it in the house for you."

Yan Ruxu: "Xiao Liang, please run for a while." Yan Ruxu said, letting Xiao Liang in and inserting the corner door.

"Xiao Liang, what is my father up to lately?"

"I'm mainly busy with the establishment of the Machinery Group. This is a major event for the Ministry of Industry and the city this year. Mr. Yan is the deputy team leader." Xiao Liang will stop talking here.

"Is the relationship between him and Ruyu's mother okay?"

"Fortunately, it's still the same."

Yan Ruxu nodded and said, "Did you buy my clothes, bag and cosmetics or did Xiao Zhou buy them?"

Xiao Zhou is Yan Liangshen's secretary. Yan Ruxu asked this sentence because he wanted to know how much Yan Liangshen spent. Although Yan Liangshen's salary is high, the things he bought for her during this period would probably cost him at least one year's salary. Wang Zhaodi must have a problem with that.

"Clothes, bags, cosmetics?" Xiao Liang repeated, and immediately understood the meaning of Yan Ruxu's question. He didn't know what Yan Ruxu was talking about, clothes, bags or cosmetics, but Yan Liangshen didn't let him do everything. , and Xiao Zhou, and Sister Huang. So he replied truthfully: "I didn't buy it."

Yan Ruxu nodded. Ever since her father gave her the light green dress, her father was out of control. He sent her things every three days. In the past, he only gave her food and toys, which were not too expensive, but now women's purses are not too expensive. , leather shoes, cosmetics, and expensive toys, a change from the old style.

Although Yan Ruxu doesn't know the exact price of these things, each piece is worth a lot. Roughly speaking, the sum is more than his father's salary for a year. Although his salary is high, the amount of money he can earn is limited. Besides, He has a family to support, and he has spent all the money on himself. How should Wang Zhaodi explain it?

The last time it was just a camera, Wang Zhaodi didn't mind being like that. If she knew that her salary for more than a year was gone, she wouldn't know how uncomfortable it would be.

With Wang Zhaodi's character, although she dare not lose her temper with Yan Liangshen, she is afraid that her heart will be buried. Even if I reconcile with my father, I can't live with Yan Liangshen like Wang Zhaodi and Yan Ruyu, and take care of his daily life. If there is a gap between Wang Zhaodi and his father, it will last forever, and I'm afraid I won't treat him wholeheartedly. Yan Liangshen. She doesn't like Wang Zhaodi, but for the sake of her father, she is willing to respect her.

Her father thought about herself so much, so she had to think about her father too. So she thought, she had to find time to have a deep talk with her father alone, to let him know that she already knew his mind, and she would gradually improve the relationship with her father, so that he would not need to spend so much money on buying things for herself.

"Go back and ask me, see if my dad can spare time someday, I'll go to the office to look for him, I have something I want to talk to him about." Yan Ruxu said to Xiao Liang.

Xiao Liang nodded: "Okay, Editor-in-Chief Yan, I'm sorry and Secretary Zhou will call you back."

Xiao Liang put the fruit in the living room and was about to leave. Kangkang followed him like a little tail, staring at the two fruit boxes salivating. edge of the box.

"Kangkang, you don't need to move, the bamboo basket is easy to get your hands on, now you sit on the sofa obediently, mother will break some corn for grandpa, and mother will wash it for you before eating, okay? "

"Okay", Kangkang quickly went to the sofa to do it obediently.

It was useless for Yan Ruxu to break the corn, so Xiao Liang volunteered to go. He said that he had been doing farm work since he was a child, and he started breaking corn when he was four or five years old.

When Xiao Liang broke the corn and was about to leave, Yan Ruxu stopped him and handed him two husks that were still warm: "Here's for you, go back and eat later."

"Sister Yan, Lin Shuangyue... still hasn't returned to the dormitory." The new editor, Han Mei, ran in panting.

Yan Ruxu looked at the time. It was already 10:00 in the morning. She stood up and said, "I can't wait any longer. I have to report to Secretary Gao."

Lin Shuangyue and Han Mei are both college graduates this year. After they were assigned to the magazine in July, they worked as an intern in Yan Ruxu's column group. Both of them are foreigners. The dormitory in the first floor, the two cherish the opportunity to stay in Beijing, come early and leave late every day, study and adapt seriously.

But today, Lin Shuangyue didn't come to work, nor did she ask for leave. According to Han Mei, who lives in the same dormitory, Lin Shuangyue was still there when she left this morning, but she was asked to come to the unit first because she had something to do.

As soon as Han Mei heard that Yan Ruxu was going to report to Secretary Gao, she became a little anxious and quickly stopped at the door, "Sister Yan, you can't go. If Secretary Gao finds out, Lin Shuangyue will definitely be punished."

"You helped Lin Shuangyue cover up and refused to reveal her whereabouts, and now you stop me from reporting to the top. If something happens to Lin Shuangyue, can you be responsible?" Yan Ruxu said lightly.

"I, I..." Han Mei bowed her head guiltily and stepped aside.

Yan Ruxu walked out: "Come along, I believe Secretary Gao also has something to ask you."

"...Okay", Han Mei followed Yan Ruxu with her head drooping. She was afraid of taking responsibility and concealed the fact that Lin Shuangyue hadn't come back all night out of friendship with her colleagues, but she didn't dare to ask for leave for Lin Shuangyue.

In Secretary Gao's office, Han Mei explained in detail the disappearance of Lin Shuangyue at the request of Secretary Gao.

"...Last night, Lin Shuangyue asked me to go to the dance hall with her. I was afraid of being caught, so I didn't dare to go, and I advised her not to go, but she said that the owner there was from her hometown, and she went to play when she was in school. Several times, nothing happened, very safe."

Seeing Secretary Gao, who was as talkative as a smiling tiger, suddenly turned into black bread and blue sky, Han Mei shrank with fright, and told the truth involuntarily.

"I found out that her bed hadn't been moved in the morning, so I knew she hadn't come back overnight. I waited for her in the dormitory until it was almost time to go to work, but she didn't come, so I went to work first."

Secretary Gao: "Did Lin Shuangyue tell you where the ballroom is?"

Han Mei shook her head, clasped her hands vigorously and said, "She didn't say, and I didn't plan to go with her, so I didn't ask." Then, she began to cry, and said while wiping her tears, "I'm sorry, Secretary Gao, I'm not On purpose, I was afraid that you would criticize Lin Shuangyue if you found out..."

Secretary Gao frowned and pointed to the direction of the door: "Go back to work first."

"Then...I..." Han Mei faltered a few words, but didn't say anything, so she looked at Yan Ruxu for help. Seeing that she lowered her head, she didn't look at her at all, so she had to turn her head and walk away.

After hearing the sound of closing the door, Secretary Gao said angrily: "Young people nowadays are too outrageous! The society is so chaotic, a little girl dares to go to a place where fish and dragons are mixed together like a ballroom! This roommate knows her Going to that kind of place for a night without returning, and still wanting to hide it for her, what a bold and stupid person!"

Yan Ruxu looked at his watch and said, "It's 10:30 now, and Lin Shuangyue hasn't come back so far. There are two possibilities, good and bad. The bad thing is that something happened to her, and the good thing is that she was arrested by the police. It was taken."

Underground dance halls are illegal, and the police often raid them. Whether they are the operators or those who come to dance, they will all be taken away.

"I hope he was detained by the police. At least he is safe." Secretary Gao sighed, looked at his watch himself, and said, "Let's wait a little longer. If there is no news from Lin Shuangyue by afternoon, we have to Report to the agency, if there is no news tomorrow, we have to notify the family and report the case to the Public Security Bureau.”

Yan Ruxu nodded: "All follow the secretary's arrangement."

Secretary Gao picked up the cup to pour water, turned his back to Yan Ruxu and complained to her: "Xiaoyan, tell me, when they first came, I emphasized to them over and over again that they must pay attention to safety, abide by the law, and behave in society. He played an exemplary and leading role in the world, but you see, everyone took my words as a deaf ear. An editor of a first-class magazine actually went to a place like a dance hall where hooligans gather! Four years of university, the country spent so much money on training, just Cultivate something like this!"

"The young people nowadays have no shortage of food and clothing, and their living conditions are better, but their thinking has become wild, and they don't obey!"

"You said that the child left his hometown and left his hometown, so he relied on the unit. If something happened to her, how could we explain to her parents? Their parents have put so much effort into training their child to become a famous college student, and this has not yet produced results Well, something happened, how sad and sad!"

"We need to strengthen the ideological education of young employees in the future."

Maybe it was the last time I went to Liu Shu's house with Yan Ruxu and went through a failed home visit together. Secretary Gao had a different revolutionary feeling for Yan Ruxu, and occasionally he was able to speak his mind.

Yan Ruxu listened quietly to Secretary Gao's complaints, and felt a little sympathetic to him.

Back in the office, Han Mei jumped up from her chair immediately, her face full of apprehension, "Sister Yan, what did Secretary Gao say? I..." What she wanted to ask was whether Secretary Gao had said how he would deal with her.

"Let's work first," Yan Ruxu said. Secretary Gao will definitely not deal with anyone when Lin Shuangyue's whereabouts are unknown, but Yan Ruxu doesn't want to tell her, so let her be uneasy.

This morning she found out that Lin Shuangyue didn't come, so she had a bad feeling. A person who just entered the workplace, lives in another place, eats three meals a day in the cafeteria, lives in a dormitory, and is never late is suddenly late. Abnormal.

She asked Han Mei, but Han Mei lied. Yan Ruxu noticed that her eyes were flickering, and asked several times, but she refused to tell the truth until she met Secretary Gao.

I really don't know if she is loyal or stupid.

In the afternoon, Lin Shuangyue still did not show up, and she never came back to her unit or dormitory.

Han Mei kept crying on the table and didn't eat lunch.

Just when Secretary Gao was about to report to the newspaper office, Yan Ruxu received a call from the Dongcheng District Public Security Bureau.
