Chapter Seventy-One: Clues
It was not Zhou Shan who opened the door, which made Mrs. feel a little disappointed, but looking at the age of the little girl, Mrs. easily thought that this girl might be Zhou Shan's daughter, "Hello, I, I'm here to find Zhou Shan, is he at home?"
Madame rarely speaks in such an overly polite tone, after all, she has always instructed employees and subordinates to do things, and now in the face of this girl who is not deeply involved in the world, Madame actually has an attitude that only when she meets big customers.
It's just that the girl's answer really surprised Mrs. a lot, "Zhou Shan, I don't know the person named Zhou Shan, you found the wrong one, right?"
Madame's heart sank instantly, she couldn't find the wrong position in this memory, how many times she had walked to the gate of this house along the road she had just opened with a bowl of vegetables, and she would be greeted by a smiling brother, and an aunt who would always look so virtuous.
"I can't be wrong, Zhou Shan used to live here, are there any adults in your house?" said Madame a little anxiously, she realized a very serious problem, Zhou Shan may have moved, so she may never be able to find him again.
The girl was obviously a little unhappy with Madame's blunt tone, not to mention that she was already an adult herself, but in the eyes of the other party, she was seen as a child who didn't understand anything. But even so, the girl's face only changed, and she replied according to Madame's request, "I'll go and call my mother out, my father is not here now, and he will go to the village to repair the dam." ”
Although the girl was young, she still found the driver standing behind her wife, and the luxury car parked on the hillside, no matter what the identity of the other party was, there was no good fruit to eat if she offended such a person.
The girl turned around and walked to the back room, and did not invite Lin Yu and his wife into the house, so the two could only continue to stand at the door and wait, but fortunately, the elders at home came out soon, she was short and fat, with a dark complexion, and the skin on her face was obviously not maintained, and she looked like a typical peasant woman. She wears an apron on her lower body and dark sleeves on her arms, and looks like she is doing housework.
"Are you looking for Zhou Shan?" the peasant woman asked bluntly after seeing the group at the door.
Mrs. saw the other party's appearance clearly, and suddenly thought about whether Zhou Shan also married such a woman as his wife, fortunately, the girl just now said that she didn't know Zhou Shan, so the person in front of her would not be her 'rival in love'.
"Yes, do you know him?" replied the lady hurriedly.
The peasant woman nodded, "This house originally belonged to his family, and later I heard that he was going to move to the city to live, so we bought it from him, and if you count the time, I'm afraid it will be more than ten years." ”
Madame realized that what she was most worried about had indeed happened, Zhou Shan had really moved, and he didn't live in this mountain village more than ten years ago, and now there was a sea of people, and he didn't have much time left, where could he find him?
Lin Yu found that his wife couldn't stop shaking her head, it seemed that her emotions were a little out of control, maybe she came with expectations and got such a result, it might be too big a blow for her. Lin Yu asked the driver to help his wife back to the car to rest, and he himself stayed and asked the peasant woman a few questions, because in Lin Yu's opinion, Zhou Shan's move was different from his wife's escape from the mountain village to Yangcheng to make a living, and he would definitely leave some clues in the village that could find him.
Lin Yu tried to ask the village woman, when they were trading houses, did Zhou Shan reveal where he wanted to move, did he have any other relatives in this village, and did Zhou Shan ever come back from other places after moving?
Lin Yu felt that as long as the other party could answer these questions, then he could follow the vine and find the current Zhou Shan step by step. After all, Lin Yu's identity at this time is not only Madame's maid, but also a god of death who wants to comfort her soul, Lin Yu must do his best to fulfill his wife's wishes during her lifetime.
Unfortunately, the peasant woman didn't know anything about these questions, and she said that the transactions back then were basically completed by her husband, and she had never had much contact with Zhou Shan. The peasant woman suggested that when her husband returned from the dam, she could ask him directly.
Lin Yu said a few words of thanks, and he learned from the peasant woman that the dam in the village was washed away by a flood a few months ago, which caused a lot of damage to the rice fields of every villager, so now the young and strong men in the village have been called by the village chief to repair the dam, and it is estimated that they will not come back until it is dark for dinner.
Lin Yu returned to the Rolls-Royce car, he saw that his wife looked very lonely, probably because he felt that he might never see Zhou Shan again in his life.
Lin Yu had no choice but to say some of the methods he had come up with, and at the same time, it could be regarded as a comfort to his wife, "Brother Zhou Shan has lived in this village for so long, and he won't leave without saying hello, now we can wait for the male owner of that family to come back in the evening, or, go to the village chief first to ask about the situation?" Lin Yu thinks that the person who knows this mountain village best is none other than the village chief, whether it is Zhou Shan's relatives in this village or the place he is moving to, maybe it is clear to the village chief.
After Lin Yu's calm analysis, Mrs. really rekindled her hope, it was in response to that sentence, the authorities were fascinated by bystanders, and it was easy to think of a way to deal with problems in Mrs.'s mind, but in the face of this matter, it was completely chaotic, Mrs. couldn't help but rejoice in her heart, fortunately, she brought Xiaoyu over today.
It's just that she can be sure of one thing, Zhou Shan's family should have no relatives in this village, because in her memory, Zhou Shan's mother seems to have always been alone, and she has never seen anyone else visit his house.
"It's not a way to wait, let's go find the village chief first," Madame naturally made the latter choice, hoping that maybe the village chief could really provide herself with some useful clues.
After several inquiries, Lin Yu learned that the village chief's home was at the entrance of the village, he instructed the driver to drive over according to the guidance of the villagers, and sure enough, he found a luxuriously decorated private building with about five or six floors at the entrance of the village, this building is undoubtedly the most unique existence in the whole village.
