Momo no rain

Chapter 45: Meeting a suspicious aunt while shopping
Momo finally lived a peaceful life for a few months.Although Wang Cuiyu occasionally found trouble, out of scruples about Duan Zimo, she no longer bullied Momo as unscrupulously as before.

Seeing that the Spring Festival was approaching, according to the contract she signed when she entered the technical school, Momo had to go to work in a factory in Zhejiang with her classmates for more than a month, which could be considered as compensation for tuition fees.

According to Duan Zimo's advice, he told the principal that Momo would not be allowed to go to Zhejiang during the Chinese New Year, and at worst he would have to pay the tuition fees.But Momo insisted on going.

Momo said that she didn't want to be special. All her classmates were going and she was embarrassed not to go alone.At the same time, she also wanted to go out and see the outside world. She had never left the city in more than ten years in City A.

Duan Zimo originally wanted to say that he could take her to see a bigger city, but thinking that the Spring Festival was the busiest time for him, he had no time to go out, so he swallowed his words again.

In fact, another reason why Momo wanted to go to Zhejiang was because she didn't want Duan Zimo to pay for her tuition.During normal times, Zimo bought her food, clothing, study materials, and found someone to tutor her in her studies. She was already very grateful, and she had nothing to repay for all of this.For other things that she could do, she felt it was better to do them herself.

In order to allow students to do more work there, technical schools ended their classes early.On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, we chartered a car to send the students to a clothing processing factory in H City Industrial Park, Zhejiang.

The industrial park is located on the outskirts of WZ City and contains dozens of factories.Each factory is equipped with dormitories, canteens and bathhouses.After the students arrived at the factory, the factory director considered safety issues.Students are required to, except for one day off for half a month, they are not allowed to leave the factory gate unless there is anything particularly important during the rest of the time.If you have to go out for something, you must have a note signed by the squad leader.

Momo was originally a girl who liked to be quiet, so not letting her go out was exactly what she wanted.Therefore, every time after get off work, apart from eating and bathing, she just reads and studies in the dormitory. She is the same self-discipline as when she was in school.

Half a month later, the students finally came to the factory to have a day off so that everyone could go out and play!The students were very excited and started to go shopping in gangs early in the morning.

Li Kun also wanted to take Momo out for a walk.At first, Momo was reluctant to go because her relatives were coming and her stomach hurt.Unable to bear Li Kun's insistence, Momo finally had to accompany her out of the factory.

When the two of them arrived in WZ City, Li Kun was like a child, who saw everything that was rare, chattering all the way.In Momo's eyes, if you only look at the city's appearance, WZ city is similar to A city.It is full of high-rise buildings made of reinforced concrete, criss-cross asphalt roads, endless traffic, and pedestrians coming and going.So walking on the streets of WZ City, Momo was not as excited as Li Kun showed.

Since Li Kun had already inquired about the busiest commercial streets and snack streets in WZ City before coming out of the factory, the two of them went to the commercial street first after getting off the bus.

There are various shops on both sides of the commercial street, mostly clothing stores.There are also some handicraft shops, bars, cafes, and several handicraft workshops.

Li Kun and Momo walked hand in hand and started strolling from store to store since they entered the commercial street.When they see a gadget or handicraft they like, if they don't spend much money, they will buy it.

While Momo and Li Kun were strolling around, they thought that since it was rare for them to travel far away, buying a gift for each of their adoptive father, adoptive mother, Mo Fei, and Duan Zimo was the right thing to do.

Momo told Li Kun her idea, and Li Kun agreed very much.In the end, they went shopping for three hours. Momo bought a piece of clothing for each of her adoptive parents and Mo Fei, and a well-packaged wallet for Duan Zimo.

After leaving the commercial street, the two of them felt tired and hungry. Fortunately, the snack street was not far from the commercial street, only 10 minutes away.So they went to the snack street carrying big and small bags, chatting and laughing.

Perhaps they were too tired, so not far from the snack street, they walked into a Chongqing hot and sour noodle snack shop.

The store area is not large, just over ten square meters. There is a small operating room separated by glass at the inner end of the store door. In front of the operating room, there are two rows of wooden tables and chairs placed against the walls on both sides. The overall look is clean and hygienic.At this time, there were already five or six customers in the store eating noodles.

Li Kun and Momo found two seats next to each other and sat down, and then each ordered a bowl of hot and sour noodles.

When they were eating noodles, Momo always felt that the 40-year-old aunt sitting diagonally across from her was peeking at her from time to time.When Momo raised her head to look back at her, the aunt suddenly looked away again and continued to eat the noodles with her head down.

At that time, Momo thought that maybe her aunt had recognized the wrong person, so she didn't pay too much attention.After finishing the meal, Momo felt that the aunt secretly looked at her at least five or six times.After eating the noodles, Momo couldn't control her curiosity, so she took the initiative to ask the aunt with a smile, "Auntie, you were always looking at me just now. Do you know me?"

"Oh, ah," the aunt didn't expect Momo to suddenly take the initiative to talk to her. She was startled for a moment, and then she regained her composure and said, "I think you look a bit like my long-lost niece. So I'll pay more attention to you." Eye."

When Momo heard the word "lost", her heart skipped a beat, and her heartbeat accelerated a lot.Because she knew that she was adopted by Mo Fuan and Wang Cuiyu, could this aunt in front of her be her biological aunt?It can't be such a coincidence, right? !

Momo stabilized her emotions, and then asked deliberately, "How old was your niece when she was separated?"

"Well, three, three years old. It's been so long that I can't even remember it." The aunt was obviously a little nervous.

When Momo heard her aunt say that she was three years old, she immediately relaxed from her nervousness.Because Mo Fu'an once told her that she was abandoned by her parents when she was born, and someone picked her up and immediately gave it to Mo Fu'an and Wang Cuiyu.

Li Kun had also finished eating at this time.She looked at Momo and then at the aunt, after understanding what was going on.She looked at Momo and the aunt carefully with gossipy eyes.Exclaimed: "Mo Xiaomo! You really look a bit like this aunt! My niece looks like my aunt!"

"Same size as you! Our home is thousands of kilometers away from here, how could I look similar to my aunt!" Momo immediately retorted to Li Kun with a smile.In fact, Li Kun didn't know that Momo's parents were adoptive parents.

"Your niece was separated when she was three years old. Haven't you found her before? Where was she separated? How was she separated?" Momo continued to ask the aunt in a pleasant manner.

The aunt didn't dare to look at Momo, and answered Momo with erratic eyes, "I, our family has looked for it before, but the country is too big. I went to several cities and gave up when I couldn't find it." Then the aunt In turn, he asked Momo, "Girl, the accent sounds like you're not a local, are you? Did you go to college here?"

"My home is in City A, Province C. I'm not going to university, I'm here to work." Momo answered immediately.

"Oh, more than ten years ago, I worked in a big hotel near the train station in City A. I haven't been there for many years, so I don't know how City A is developing now?" the aunt said quietly, He seemed to be full of worries.

"Excuse me, are you ready to eat?" At this time, a waiter in the store came over and asked them with a smile, "There are a few customers at the door who want to eat noodles. Our store is too small and there is no place to sit. If If you have eaten well, please, could you give up your seat to them?"

"We've finished eating, let's leave now." Momo and Li Kun stood up in a hurry, and the aunt also stood up in a hurry.

The three of them walked to the door of the snack bar. Momo and Akun both waved goodbye to the aunt with smiles, and the aunt slowly raised her hand.But Momo always felt that something was wrong with that aunt, and her eyes kept wandering away from her...
