1974, Nancheng.
The Yun family was characterized as capitalists, and their parents, brother, and sister-in-law had to go to the countryside to undergo reform.
The night before leaving, her mother held Yun Qi's hand, her eyes swollen: "Qi Qi, go find Cen Xu and get the wedding done as soon as possible."
The sister-in-law couldn't bear to have her two children go to the countryside with them to suffer hardships, so she knelt down with a plop and begged Yunqi to take these two children with her.
The five-year-old brother Yun Yan pursed his lips and remained silent, while the younger sister Yun Nuo hugged Yun Qi's legs and burst into tears.
The family left most of their money to her, a total of five thousand yuan, which was wrapped layer by layer in cloth and stuffed into her arms.
Yun Qi held a child in each hand: "Let's go, follow my aunt, and go to your uncle Cen Xu."
As soon as Yun Qi arrived at the family home of the Public Security Bureau in a small northern town, he saw the tall man wearing a navy blue police uniform standing at the door waiting for them.
Her eyes turned red, her grievances instantly overflowed, and she made a gesture to pounce on her: "Comrade Cen Xu——"
Cen Xu subconsciously caught her, his ears burning: "... Slow down."
"I miss you so much." She raised her face, her voice was sweet and soft, as if soaked in honey, "The sky has really fallen this time. You must also know the situation in my family. Now Yanyan, Nuonuo, I, and I are the only ones left. You won't not take us in, right?"
Cen Xu's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice was low: "... Go inside first."
Nuonuo poked her little head out from behind her, tugged on the corner of Cen Xu's clothes, and said in a sweet voice, "Uncle Cen Xu, are you really my aunt's fiancé?"
Yan Yan pulled his sister back and supported Yun Qi with a straight face: "Sister, please don't talk nonsense."
Cen Xu bent down and picked up both children, and said to Yun Qi: "Don't call me comrade in the future. I'm not used to you suddenly being so serious."
Yun Qi tilted his head: "Then what should I call you?"
He turned away: "... Just call me by name."
She chuckled, leaned over and tugged on his sleeves: "Then... Old Cen, when are we going to get evidence?"
Cen Xu is a well-known cold-faced detective in the bureau. He solves cases quickly, talks little, and is not easy to get close to. The young girls discussed him privately. Captain Cen was afraid that he was a piece of ice that could not hold any heat.
But no one knew that as soon as he came home, he was pinched by the little fox.
She complained that she was cold, so he put her hand in the pocket of his police uniform; she said she wanted to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the south, so he asked someone to bring it back from other places; she said, "Old Cen, you are the prettiest," and his ears turned red, and he had to scold her with a straight face: "... Don't talk nonsense."
