Su Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment and quickly took the letter in his hand.
He opened the envelope and saw written in Juan Xiu's handwriting, "Brother Zhiyuan, I'm sorry, I can't marry you.
I know you don’t like me. Maybe because of Song Xiaomei’s incident, you were hit hard. You were already disheartened, so you thought it didn’t matter who you married. You also happened to feel guilty about me, so you sacrificed yourself to help me.
.
I have chosen to ignore your mood these days, just to immerse myself in my own dreams.
But the dream will eventually wake up one day, and I am awake now.
Brother Zhiyuan, thank you very much...
I believe you will be able to find the girl you truly love, and I sincerely wish you the best!
Don't worry, I'm fine, I just want to stay outside for a while, so that everyone will not be afraid of hurting me, afraid that I won't get married, and always thinking of bringing the two of us together... Tell my parents, don't come to me, it's time.
I will go home of course."
After he finished reading the letter, his chest kept heaving and his brows knitted together deeply.
"What was written in the letter?" Bai Lu asked hurriedly.
Su Zhiyuan handed the letter to his mother, "Damei is gone."
Bai Lu read out the content of the letter and sighed: "This kid Damei, ugh..."
Lin Yulan couldn't help but stamp her feet, "Oh, I'm so anxious. Where can this girl run to?"
"Aunt Lin," Jinbao asked, "Sister Damei, does she have any special best friends?"
Lin Yulan thought for a while, shook her head and said, "Damei seems to have no friends.
After graduating from high school, she was given a job in a factory. She usually either went to the factory or went home, living a two-to-one life. I have never seen her go to a friend's house to play, nor have she invited friends to my home."
Speaking of this, she became more and more worried, fearing that something might happen to Damei.
Bai Lu pulled Jinbao aside and asked in a low voice: "Jinbao, can you ask an owl or an eagle to find Damei like you did with Xiaowu last time?"
"It's possible, but I think this is an opportunity..."
Her mother didn't understand and asked in a confused tone: "Opportunity? What do you mean?"
"What an opportunity for the relationship between big brother and big sister to take a step forward!" Jinbao whispered, "big brother must be very worried about big sister at the moment. If he can find her in the end, it will be a long time between them.
unforgettable experience."
Bai Lu sighed, "But there are no clues now. Where can we find Damei?"
Her husband, Su Jianmin, sounded puzzled, "If you didn't stay at a friend's house, where could you go? Now you have to show a letter of introduction from your employer to stay in a hotel. Damei doesn't have a letter of introduction, so she has nowhere to go?"
Everyone couldn't help but frown, wondering where Xu Damei could go.
"Maybe it's in a nearby park, I'll just go look for it." Su Zhiyuan said and walked straight out the door.
"Brother, wait a minute!" Jinbao called to him, "Since Sister Damei wants to avoid us, she will definitely not go to the park."
Su Zhiyuan said: "Then I will go to the train station, go to the library, and search the entire Jinghai City to find her!"
"How big is Jinghai City? You can't find it if you search like a headless fly."
"Hey, what should we do now?" Su Zhiyuan was worried, "It's been very chaotic outside recently, and no one is taking care of social security on the streets. It's really unsafe for a girl like her to be outside..."
Jin Bao's big, spiritual eyes rolled around.
She turned to Lin Yulan and asked: "Aunt Lin, does Sister Damei have the habit of keeping a diary? Maybe the diary contains places where she may go?"
"journal?"
Lin Yulan shook her head and said uncertainly: "I don't know if she has the habit of keeping a diary. She always closes the door when she returns to her room after dinner. I don't know what she does in the room.
But when I was cleaning her room, I found that the drawer of her desk was locked..."
"Then it's very possible that she kept a diary!" Jinbao said with certainty, "Sister Damei doesn't have very close friends to share her thoughts with, and she can't find anyone to confide her secrets to. The most likely way is to think about herself.
Write down what you say in your diary."
Bai Lu said: "Without further delay, let's go to Damei's room to look for it?"
"Okay." Lin Yulan nodded and led the Su family into Damei's room.
She pulled the drawer hard, and sure enough, the drawer was locked and couldn't be pulled.
After everyone rummaged around for a while, Jinbao found a key in a small flower basket on the desk. She inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it. Then she grabbed the handle of the drawer and pulled it out. She opened the drawer.
.
"I opened it!" Jinbao said, and saw that the notepads were neatly arranged inside. The cover at the bottom had turned yellow and looked old for many years, while the notepads placed on the top were the latest.
Su Xiaosi exclaimed, "Wow, there are so many books!"
As he said this, he was about to pick up one of the notebooks, but his sister stopped him and said, "The diary is sister Damei's privacy. Fourth brother, let's not read it. Let the eldest brother look for clues alone?"
"That's right, Xiaosi, please stop interfering," Su Jianmin pulled his two sons, Xiaosi and Xiaowu, out of the door. "Go to school quickly. Your school is so far away. You will definitely be late again today, and Xiaowu
You too, go to school quickly!"
Su Xiaowu asked: "Where is Jinbao? I want to go to school with Jinbao."
"Jinbao still has to help your elder brother come up with ideas at home. She will definitely not be able to go to school today." With that said, Su Jianmin added, "Xiaowu, you will go to school later. Go to Jinbao's class first."
Can you help her and the teacher take a day off?"
Thinking that it was more important to find Sister Da Mei, Su Xiaowu nodded, "Okay."
After he and his fourth brother left, everyone else also exited Damei's room first, leaving Zhiyuan alone sitting on a chair reading the diary, flipping through the latest diary.
"It's been three days! It's been three days since Brother Zhiyuan proposed to marry me.
It still feels so unreal to me. How could I be so lucky?
As long as I think about being able to live in the oil fields with Brother Zhiyuan and spend the rest of my life with him, I am really happy...
But while I'm happy, I'm also very scared. I'm afraid that God will take back all the luck and favor. After all, I've never been a lucky person. I'm so inconspicuous, am I really worthy of him?"
…
"It's March 15th, it's cloudy, there's no work in the factory, it's so boring.
I was in a daze listening to the sound of the machine, and his face appeared in my mind again, and then I smiled...
My co-workers asked me what I was laughing at, but I blushed and couldn't answer.
Alas, another day of missing him."
…
"January 29th, today is New Year's Eve.
Brother Zhiyuan still hasn't come home this year, and I haven't seen him for many years.
I wonder if he is doing well. What will he do on New Year's Eve in the oil field? What will he eat?
Brother Zhiyuan said that he prefers dumplings stuffed with chives to dumplings stuffed with cabbage, but he likes to eat any dumplings made by Aunt Bai. Today, Aunt Bai made dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut, which was also delicious.
I really want Brother Zhiyuan to try it..."
Su Zhiyuan never thought that Damei would write all about herself in her entire diary.
She never wrote a letter to him, but her notebook was full of him.
