Chapter 606: Si Yuanjie's Home (Middle)
"Fatty, don't scold, this is not the ...... of Fang Village"
Hearing the fat man's scolding and scolding not very clean, Sancang reminded him that Ji Province is a famous martial arts province in China, and the people have always been fierce, and they often do it directly if they don't agree with each other, they are here to find people, not to fight.

"The lights are on, someone has come out...... Fang Yi pointed to the earthen house in front of him, an old man opened the courtyard door with a flashlight, and shouted loudly: "Who is it? Someone is looking for? Er Liu, get up for me, someone is coming to our village!"
With the shouts of the old man, the village seemed to have suddenly woken up from its slumber, the doors of each house were opened, and some people in overcoats and old cotton jackets walked out of it, each holding a flashlight in their hands, and shone at the car they made.
"It's a big loaf of bread, and the leader is sitting there, right?"
"It's not bread, it's called a business car, I saw it when I went to work in the city......"
"Little rabbit, you know a lot, right? Your uncle, I also went to the construction site to see the gate......"
Looking at Fang Yi's car, the villagers who surrounded them were discussing, because it was the end of the year, many young people who went out to work also returned to the village, and Fang Yi and their new Buick car were also known.
"Hey, who are you looking for? Why don't you get out of the car?" the old man who opened the door first walked over and tapped the window lightly with his hand.
"Uncle, I want to get out of the car, but your dog is too fierce......" The fat man rolled down the window and pointed to the toothy dog next to the old man.
"Rhubarb, go back to the yard,......" the old man kicked the dog's buttocks, and let out a whimper, and the big yellow dog ran back into the yard.
"It's almost the Chinese New Year recently, and there are many people in the village, and they always lose things, so the dogs are not tied up, don't be surprised by the guests......" The old man said very politely: "My surname is Liu, and I am the branch secretary of this Liujia Village, who are you looking for......?"
"Uncle, let's look for Si Yuanjie!"
Fang Yila drove the door and walked down, took out a pack of cigarettes, took out one and handed it to the old man, then sent it around, and said: "Uncle, I am Si Yuanjie's boss, he asked for leave at the beginning of the month and said that he would go home to worship his grandfather, but he never went back, I was worried that something would happen, so I came to find him......"
"Si Yuanjie, which one is Si Yuanjie?" Hearing Fang Yi's words, the old branch secretary glanced back, with a confused expression on his face.
"Branch secretary, it's that kid from the Si family, you don't even know your godgrandson?" an old man next to him shouted.
"Are you here to find Ergouzi's child?" Hey, the countryside is not called a big name, they don't say that I really forgot what Ergouzi is called......" Hearing Fang Yi's words, the old branch secretary waved his hand to the surroundings and said: "Let's go back, it's Ergouzi's boss, I'll just talk to the guests......"
"Ergouzi, hehe, this name is good, I will call that kid that in the future......" Hearing Si Yuanjie's nickname, the fat man smiled.
"If you dare to call him Ergouzi, it is estimated that he will dare to call you Wei Jinhua, which one are you thinking about?"
"If you don't speak, will you die?" the fat man was furious when he heard this, "Lao Tzu's name is Wei Jinhua, not Wei Jinhua!"
"Guest, don't talk outside, go into the house and talk, it's quite cold outside......" The old branch secretary greeted Fang Yi and the others, Fang Yi originally wanted to ask where Si Yuanjie was and went directly to him, but when he saw the old branch secretary turn around and leave, he could only follow.
Although it is the village party secretary, the house where the old man lives is similar to other people's houses, but although the structure of the house is not very good, but the inside is burned with earthen kang, and after entering, a burst of heat comes to the face, and the body that has been blown through by the wind is suddenly much warmer.
"Guest, sit down ......"
The old branch secretary asked Fang Yi and the others to sit down at the table where they were eating, and said: "Ergouzi's child has a hard life, he lost his parents when he was very young, and my old brother also passed away, leaving such a lonely baby, you can't treat him badly......"
"Uncle, no......" Hearing the old man's words, Fang Yi hurriedly said: "Si Yuanjie is very smart and willing to learn things, I treat him as a little brother......
"I know, I heard the kid from Ergouzi say that he has a very good boss, and he has a salary of 2,000 yuan a month for food and accommodation, old man, I want to thank you......"
The old branch secretary laughed when he heard this, Si Yuanjie has been eating and drinking at his house for the past few days when he went home, and the old branch secretary who watched Si Yuanjie grow up since he was a child also treated him as his own grandson, and they were also very grateful to Fang Yi.
"It's all as it should be, and I'm ready to give him a salary increase when it's over......"
Seeing that he hadn't talked to this old man for a long time and hadn't talked about the topic, Fang Yi said at the moment: "Uncle, where did Si Yuanjie go?" He took five days off before, and he hasn't gone back after half a month, nothing happened, right?"
"Didn't you go back?"
It was windy outside just now, and the old branch secretary didn't hear Fang Yi's words clearly at all, after hearing this, he couldn't help but show a shocked expression on his face, shook his head and said: "Ergouzi left ten days ago, and he left me a thousand yuan, you don't know, this kid is kind, there is no one in the village who doesn't say good......"
"Uncle, did he mean to go back to Jinling?" Fang Yi automatically filtered out those words that praised Si Yuanjie, and asked: "Think about it, did he say that he went somewhere else......?"
"No, he said he was going back to work...... "The old branch secretary was stunned for a moment and said: "He still ate at my place the first day, but the next day I went to my daughter's house, I really don't know when he left......
"This doesn't ...... right."
Fang Yi and the fat man glanced at each other, and shook their heads at the same time, although they didn't get along for a long time, they all knew that Si Yuanjie was not very old but he was very stable in doing things, since he had left the village, it was estimated that something had happened on the road.
"Old man, the second dog, that kid didn't leave the next day......
An old lady's voice suddenly came from the back room, and as she spoke, an old lady in her early sixties opened the thick curtain and walked out, "Ergouzi left on the third day, and the day before him, several people came to the house to look for him, and Ergouzi came out of the village with them......"
"Hmm, who are you going with?" Fang Yi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.
The old lady thought about it very seriously, but she shook her head and said, "I don't know the old woman, but she looks a little familiar, like people from several villages next to her......"
There are not many mountains in Hebei Province, most of the villages are connected, and after thousands of years of living, each village is related to each other, and there are a lot of walks on weekdays, so even if the old lady does not know most of them, she can see a familiar face.
"Apart from you, who else has seen those people?" Before Fang Yi could speak, the old branch secretary asked his wife.
"Da Niu and his daughter-in-law seem to have seen it too, right?" the old lady thought for a moment and said, "When the second dog left, the two of us were collecting the soles of our shoes at the entrance of the village......
"Okay, you go back to the house, put on a padded jacket, and go with us to Da Niu's house......"
The old branch secretary waved his hand, picked up the flashlight on the table, and explained to Fang Yi: "Da Niu hasn't come back from his part-time job yet, so her daughter-in-law lives at home with her baby, let the old woman go with her, otherwise I'm afraid that someone in the village will chew ......their tongues."
What the old branch secretary said, the fat man and the three guns all understand that there are a lot of men in the countryside who go out to work and women take care of their children at home, which is the same as the truth that there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door, if the old branch secretary takes Fang Yi and them into the house of Da Niu's house, maybe there will be some gossip the next day.
The road in the countryside is not very easy to walk, after walking a hundred and ten meters deep, the old branch secretary stood at the gate of the courtyard of a family, the main house of this family is a brick house, but the two sides are still covered with the kind of earthen houses in the village.
"Cuihua, I'm your aunt, open the door, I have something to ask you......"
The old lady shouted at the gate of the courtyard, and the barking of the dogs caused by their approach had caused the lights to be lit up in several nearby houses, but after hearing the old lady's voice, the lights were turned off again.
"Auntie, what's the matter at such a late hour......?
A woman's voice sounded in the house, and after about four or five minutes, a young woman in her twenties walked out with her clothes on, and when she saw so many people standing at the gate of the courtyard, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and stopped.
"Cuihua, it's okay, they are the boss of Ergouzi, and they are looking for Ergouzi's ......" The old branch secretary said: "Ergouzi has been out for several days, and he hasn't been to the place where he works, your aunt said that you saw it when he left that day, do you know who he went with?"
"That's what happened......"
Hearing the words of the old branch secretary, the young woman breathed a sigh of relief, and after thinking for a while, she said: "There were three people walking with the two dogs that day, and I don't know the other two, but one of them is a young man from Jiang Zhuang, and my sister is married to that village, and I saw him in Jiang Zhuang!"
"Eldest sister, do you know the name of that person in Jiang Zhuang?" Fang Yi interjected.
"I don't know what it's called......"
Cuihua shook her head, and just when Fang Yi and the others showed disappointment on their faces, she immediately said: "But I know which family it is, that family and my sister's house are next to each other, there are two brothers in the family, and both parents are gone......
"Eldest sister, where is Jiang Zhuang?can you take us there?" Hearing Cuihua's words, Fang Yi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as there were clues, what he was most afraid of was that Si Yuanjie would run out alone, in that case, there would be no trace at all.
"Now, it's too late, isn't it?" Cuihua glanced at the old branch secretary, and her expression was clearly unwilling.
"That's it, it's too late today, I'll take Cuihua with you tomorrow!" The old branch secretary opened his mouth, the other party was three sturdy young men, not to mention Cuihua was a woman, even if he went out with him, there was no bottom in his heart. (To be continued.) )
