Grape vines, grape flowers, people under the grape trellis…
At six o’clock in the morning, Mrs. Hua’s high heels began to walk back and forth in the empty apartment. Mrs. Hua was forty-seven years old and she was already blessed, but she stubbornly put on skinny shoes on her fat feet. The feet and leather shoes tortured each other day after day.
Outside the window is the humid air of the summer of 1932 AD, and large dark green leaves spread unscrupulously on the grape racks in the yard. All kinds of emerald vines softly crossed the wall, and then slumped weakly on the outer wall. Mrs. Hua began to shout loudly: “Xiao Cui, tell Hua Yi to get up!”
Xiao Cui is the housemaid. Hua Yi is her only daughter.
Half an hour later, Hua Yi finally appeared in front of her yawning. Hua Yi is 26 years old and has no husband’s family. She doesn’t seem to plan to have a husband’s house, so she sleeps comfortably until three o’clock in the afternoon. Now the look on her face was obviously dissatisfied that Mrs. Hua disturbed her sleep.
Mrs. Hua shouted in a sharp voice: “Hua Yi, you are simply a pig! Do you know how many days your father has not been home?”
Hua Yi leaned on the door frame softly and thought for a while. It did not seem to have seen Dr. Hua for several days. In the past, Huayi chose to get up at three in the afternoon because at three in the afternoon, Dr. Hua would come back from the clinic, and then began to sing with gongs and drums at home. Huayi had to get up.
Doctor Hua has always loved singing and acting far more than being a doctor. But his play can’t feed him, but being a doctor can.
This is indeed a very sad thing. Just like the woman he loved did not marry him, the woman he hated since he was a child has lain in the same bed with him for thirty years. Therefore, Hua Yi has known an unhappy Doctor Hua since she was born.
At this moment, Mrs. Hua seems to have reached a rage: “He has not been home for six days! Go to the police, maybe, he has been killed, but you, he is the only one My daughter still sleeps like a pig every day!”
Hua Yi laughed. Hua Yi would rather believe that Doctor Hua went to hold a certain actor, so she never went home. Of course Hua Yi knew how Dr. Hua didn’t like to face Mrs. Hua’s moody and nervous face.
How neurotic is Mrs. Hua?
When Hua Yi was fourteen years old, Mrs. Hua came home from outside and saw the back of Hua Yi’s skirt blood. Huayi explained that it was infected while helping the male servant of the family to kill a chicken.
After Mrs. Hua walked into the room without saying a word, she quietly covered the door and called the police: “Mr. Police, please take someone to my house immediately. My daughter was raped by a servant. Now!”
The police quickly broughtGoing to kill the chicken for the first time, the manservant full of blood. The neighbors around the door also quickly took away the news that the Hua’s daughter was raped.

The male servant was finally acquitted after being beaten at the police station for half a month. Hua Yi was also dismissed from the girls’ school because the principal of the girls’ school heard that Hua Yi was pregnant.
So although Huayi is not ugly, she still doesn’t have a husband’s family at the age of 26. Mrs. Hua didn’t seem to regret her behavior at all. She believed that the manservant must have bribed the laboratory technician at the police station to test the human blood into chicken blood.
So Hua Yi now hears that Mrs. Hua is about to call the police again, which makes it funny. After laughing, she suddenly wanted to pinch Mrs. Hua’s neck severely. She could even imagine how comfortable Mrs. Hua’s soft and fat neck was pinched in her hands.
Of course Mrs. Hua couldn’t guess what Huayi was thinking, so Mrs. Hua continued to shout in a sharp voice: “Do you want to call the police? Is your heart grown? Your dad has probably been chopped into pieces by someone, don’t you call the police?”
Hua Yi said lightly: “I would rather go to a private detective. Their efficiency has always been much faster than that of the police. , The police will only eat for nothing.”
Mrs. Hua stopped speaking, she agreed with Huayi. But this time she also couldn’t guess what Huayi was thinking. Hua Yi just suddenly thought of her time before the age of fourteen.
There was a secret before the age of fourteen, and that secret was related to the detective.
Hua Yi obeyed her mother’s words and decided to make the effort her daughter deserves for his father’s disappearance. She walked back to the room and began to dig through the boxes to find out what clothes to wear at the door. There is a long-lasting humid smell in the closet. Hua Yi sniffed it carefully. She liked the smell. In the never-ending damp, bacteria can live happily.
Huayi chose a purple floral cheongsam, and the purple floral was shyly and openly spread on Huayi’s young body. When Hua Yi walked through the yard, she frowned and asked Xiao Cui, who looked sideways at her: “Are you lazy?”
Xiao Cui replied, “I am not lazy. “When Xiao Cui spoke, she raised the colorful silk thread she was removing in her hand, indicating that she was working hard for her master.
But Huayi still frowned: “The yard is so dirty that it smells bad, can’t you smell it?”

< br/> After Huayi’s reminder, Xiaocui also seemed to find that the yard did indeed smell. So she immediately explained: “Miss, there are often eggplants, peppers, cabbage, potatoes, and potatoes that spoil in summer, and they can’t be thrown away. Everyone has this taste. Of course you don’t know if you are a lady.”
Hua Yi stopped talking and turned away. She believed this explanation.
But Xiaocui herself doesn’t believe this explanation. An hour after Huayi left, Xiao Cui’s nose was always wrinkled together. Because she is constantly smelling, in order to constantly judge why there is such a stink.
Mrs. Hua was standing upstairs in the lonely empty space, looking at Xiao Cui, who was sniffing around like a hound in the yard.
The rickshaw was easily called, and Hua Yi, wearing a purple cheongsam, got in quickly like a mouse. The coachman’s voice sounded outside the rickshaw with rags hung: “Miss, where are we going?”
“Phu Quoc Street Hua Doctor Clinic.” Hua Yi thought lazily, maybe the clinic Here, my father is holding a beautiful actress who is twenty or thirty years younger than him.
Huayi quickly got into his father’s clinic like a mouse. When Hua Yi was seven years old, he secretly assigned the key to the clinic. Nineteen years later, Dr. Hua still used the original lock. When Huayi successfully opened the door, there was fear in her heart. Maybe my father is really missing.
Dr. Hua hasn’t changed a lock for 19 years. He is so afraid of change. Such a person, of course, doesn’t have the courage to change a wife. Although he hates this wife. Just like although he hates the dark green grape trusses in his home, he is still afraid that he will not find a home without those grape trusses.
Hua Yi sat blankly in the dusty clinic, thinking about his father who had suddenly disappeared. How could a living person disappear out of thin air?
Huayi found a detective agency on the street.
The secretary led Hua Yi through the narrow and shady corridor and led her to Detective Guo. Detective Guo looked very young and not handsome, but his nose was very strong and his eyes were bright. Huayi likes this type of man.
Detective Guo seemed to be very beautiful when he smiled. Now he was smiling and asking Hua Yi: “Miss, what do you need my help?”
Hua Yi’s sight suddenly fell to the time before the age of 14. Once, a detective younger than Detective Guo also smiled and asked himself: “Miss, what do you need my help?”
At that time, Huayi replied: “My cat I can’t find it anymore.”
Now Huayi replied: “My father can’t find it anymore.”
The young detective at the time continued to keep it. His gentle smile: “It’s okay, I think I can get your cat back soon.”
Now the young detective frowned. After all, people are more important than cats. Much. Huayi smiled and thought. Of course, important promises cannot be made lightly.
But Detective GuoFrowning and thinking about the problem is how much money should be charged to help find a big living person.
They negotiated the price easily. Detective Guo has always been able to quickly and accurately locate how much money his customers can give. The woman in front of me who is still wearing the popular styles a few years ago will probably be easier to raise money.
Hua Yi quickly handed the money to Detective Guo. She has always been a good-natured person who never cares about anything. Besides, facing a man of the type she likes, she feels that she should be more luxurious.
