Chapter 567: The Lord Appears
Zeng Yi saw Xia Changning's nervousness and said, "It depends on whether you want to see her." ”
"Of course I want to see ......" Xia Changning opened his mouth and said, but halfway through the conversation, he shook his head very embarrassedly, and said: "Actually, it's better to follow fate, it's good to see it, and it's okay if you can't see it...... Actually, it's good. ”
Zeng Yi smiled, Xia Changning was obviously insincere, but Zeng Yi could also understand Xia Changning's ambivalence.
The bell must be tied to the bell, Xia Changning was so confused by Zeng Yi, but he was not as nervous as before, it was good to see it, it may not be bad if he didn't see it, so why should he force it? It's just that he just comforted himself in his heart, and when he looked up and saw the vaguely familiar scene outside the window, his heart involuntarily tugged again.
The car soon arrived at Dongwang Town, the intersection of the town black pressure station a large group of people, not only the leaders of Dongwang Town, some older villagers heard the news, but also rushed over to see if they could meet someone they knew, the entrance of the town was very lively for a while, and the villagers gathered together to listen to the older people tell the story of the year.
"That, that's not ......"
Before the car stopped, an old intellectual, who was in the car, suddenly stood up and pointed to the car excitedly, probably recognizing the acquaintance of the year, but the time was so long ago that he couldn't remember the name of the acquaintance, so he was excited and anxious.
As soon as the car door opened, the old intellectuals couldn't wait to get out of the car and walk into the crowd to find someone they knew.
After a while, some people in the crowd let out a very hearty laugh, and some people let out a very sad cry. The reunion after a long absence, the changes of things and people, make everyone's feelings become very different at this moment.
After a full half an hour, the crowd calmed down a little, and under the guidance of acquaintances, the old intellectuals began to revisit the places they had stayed in. Everywhere I went, there was laughter and happiness. There are sighs and sighs, and there are sadness and sadness.
Finally, under the green mountain two miles away from Dongwang Town, Xia Changning stood under the pine. Excitedly, he gently stroked the cracked tree with his hand, and said, "It's still ...... It's still there. The tree is still the same as it was thirty years ago, and it hasn't changed at all......"
Several old intellectuals behind him also stepped forward one after another, and they were no strangers to this tree.
Although decades have passed, the appearance of this tree has not changed much from the photo of Xia Changning, Zeng Yi stood aside with some emotion, it is really a fleeting time, and the green pine is eternal.
turned around and looked into the distance, but Zeng Yi didn't see the temple-like ancestral hall in the photo.
The leader of Dongwang Town next to him explained: "County Magistrate Zeng, the surname Wang is the surname of Dongwang Town, and there was originally a ancestral hall of the Wang family here. But unfortunately it was destroyed in that big storm. Later, after the conditions permitted, some old people surnamed Wang proposed to rebuild the ancestral hall, considering that the ancestral hall built here will affect the mountain appearance, and is not conducive to protection, the surname Wang will build the ancestral hall in the town. ”
Zeng Yi nodded. It's okay if the heart is like this, it is built in the town, that is, under the nose of the person surnamed Wang, if anyone wants to destroy it again, it will be difficult.
As soon as the old intellectuals heard this, they proposed to go to the new Wang Family Ancestral Hall. So they turned back and walked in the direction they had come.
Before leaving, Xia Changning stared at the green pine for a long time, and finally sighed deeply, and then followed everyone back, seemingly a little reluctant.
Zeng Yi's brows were also slightly locked at this time, the old intellectual's visit process was more than halfway, but Wang Xi still did not show up, which made Zeng Yi inevitably a little anxious.
The new Wang clan ancestral hall is solemn and solemn, but compared with the previous one, there is still less antique taste, everyone visited the Wang clan ancestral hall, the time is not early, the town leaders prepared a meal, invited the old intellectuals to taste the authentic dishes of Dongwang Town.
During the banquet, Zeng Yi answered a phone call, and when he came back, he saw that Xia Changning was missing from the banquet, and after waiting for a few minutes, Xia Changning didn't come back, so Zeng Yi opened his mouth to ask, but no one could tell where Xia Changning went.
The banquet was eaten, and the town hurriedly sent someone to find Xia Changning, but they searched all the nearby places, and Xia Changning was not found.
"County Magistrate Zeng ......" The leaders of Dongwang Town were a little panicked, the county made the formation very big this time, and the media came to track and report, at this time, if he lost one of the old knowers, the matter would be very difficult to explain. The town leader looked at Zeng Yi nervously and said, "Let's send someone to find it immediately, County Magistrate Zeng can rest assured, Dongwang Town is such a big place, and he will definitely be able to find Mr. Xia." ”
Zeng Yi said: "Send a few more people, and report to me as soon as there is news!" Zeng Yi also did not pursue the town leaders, Xia Changning is an adult, and his legs are long on his body, who can stop him if he wants to go, it is still important to find someone now.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The town leader touched the cold sweat on his head and hurriedly went to arrange the arrangement, and it was the first time for him to encounter such an unlucky thing, and he lost someone after eating.
The town sent a large number of people out to look for Xia Changning, Zeng Yi couldn't stay a little still, he ordered people to take care of the rest of the old intellectuals, and then asked the driver to drive himself out to look for it.
After going around the town, he didn't find anything, and the driver was going to turn around again to see if there was anything missing, Zeng Yi suddenly had an idea at this time, and said, "Go to the foot of the mountain outside the town!" ”
The driver did not hesitate, slammed the accelerator, and the car went to the green hills outside the town.
At the foot of the mountain, the former tranquility was restored, and after the car stopped, Zeng Yi pulled his feet and walked up the mountain. Xia Changning has a problem, that is, he doesn't like to carry a phone with him, but Xia Changning has no other place to go in Dongwang Town, thinking about it, Zeng Yi feels that Xia Changning is likely to come here again, so he came to try his luck.
It didn't take long to go up, and after turning a corner, Zeng Yi saw the green pine.
There was no Xia Changning under the green pine, but at this time there was a middle-aged lady standing, who was older, but looked much younger than Xia Changning. The lady looked at Qing Song quietly, as if she was a little distracted.
Zeng Yi felt that this lady was a little familiar, but he could only see a side face when he stood in the distance. I tried to move a little closer, and at the same time lifted my feet and kicked a small pebble out, making a "pop" rolling sound.
The lady was standing in front of the green pine and was distracted, when she heard the voice, she took her thoughts back, and she knew that someone was coming. So he turned his head and looked at it.
As soon as he looked at him, Zeng Yi recognized that the middle-aged lady in front of him was none other than him. It was the person Xia Changning was looking for in Fengqing County this time - Wang Xi's sister Wang Hongni. Seeing Wang Hongni, Zeng Yi's heart became steady, and he was busy working for so long. I finally got an explanation.
"Hello!" Zeng Yi said hello and said, "Have you seen an old man here?" ”
The middle-aged lady didn't know who was coming, so she shook her head and said she didn't see it, and then turned around and continued to look at the green pine.
Zeng Yi was not in a hurry to leave, stood a few steps to the side, took out the phone and asked, "Have you found Mr. Xia Changning?" ”
As soon as he asked, Wang Hongni, who was standing in front of Qingsong, suddenly trembled, and then turned her head to look straight at Zeng Yi, she wanted to ask Zeng Yi what was going on, but saw that Zeng Yi was on the phone. I had to resist the impulse in my heart.
"The old Mr. Xia Changning you just talked about, is it an educated youth who came to Fengqing County this time?"
It was easy to wait for Zeng Yi to accept the phone, and Wang Hongni immediately asked.
"Do you know Mr. Xia Changning too?" Zeng Yi deliberately asked, "When I was eating just now, Mr. Xia Changning suddenly left the table alone. I thought he might come here, so I came over and had a look. ”
"Then find him...... Did you find Mr. Xia Changning? Wang Hongni asked, but in just one sentence, she used two titles.
Zeng Yi sighed in his heart, Wang Hongni may be psychologically the same as Xia Changning at this time, she has a little entanglement, and she is obviously very concerned. But he wanted to pretend to be unfamiliar, Zeng Yi said: "Mr. Xia may have some feelings after returning to Dongwang Town today, or there is something unfinished, so he left the table, but we have already looked everywhere, and I believe there will be news soon." ”
Wang Hongni was a little relieved, she wanted to ask Zeng Yi for some details, but it was difficult to speak, so she had to comfort herself in her heart, Xia Changning was alone at such an age, it was impossible to lose herself, maybe she just went out for a walk.
At this moment, there was a "rustling" footstep in the forest on the mountain, and someone said loudly inside: "Sister, you are here too, are you really not going to see Brother Xia?" ”
As he spoke, the man walked out of the forest, and when he saw two people under the green pine, his expression was obviously stagnant, and when he saw Zeng Yi's appearance clearly, he asked in surprise: "Huh?" Aren't you the county magistrate Zeng of Fengqing County? ”
Zeng Yi laughed, his trick really worked, the main owner finally appeared, he said: "It turns out that Chief Engineer Wang, we meet again!" ”
"Why is County Magistrate Zeng here?" Wang Xi asked, Zeng Yi wouldn't have come here to find himself.
Zeng Yi said: "There is an activity in the county today for an old educated youth to return to his hometown, and an old gentleman suddenly left the table alone while eating, so I came here to try my luck and see if I could find it." ”
Wang Xi's expression was obviously relaxed, his vigilance was still relatively strong, but when he looked back at his sister Wang Hongni's expression, Wang Xi's brows locked together, and he asked anxiously, "It won't be Brother Xia, right?" ”
Wang Hongni nodded, showing that Wang Xi's guess was not wrong.
Wang Xi said loudly: "How can this be? ”
Zeng Yi had no choice but to repeat what he had just said, and finally said: "We have already sent someone to find it, and it should be okay if you think about it." ”
Wang Xi urged: "Let's go, I'll go with you to find it!" ”
Zeng Yi said: "Wang Gong and Mr. Xia know each other? ”
"It's all a long time ago, when I find Mr. Xia, I'll tell you slowly!" Wang Xi's temperament was more anxious, and as he spoke, he walked down the mountain, Zeng Yi and Wang Hongni followed behind.
As soon as the three of them came down the mountain, they saw a person in the distance who was walking towards the foot of the mountain, but it was not the Xia Changning that everyone was looking for!
Zeng Yi said straight and funny, he was obviously chasing Xia Changning, why did he run in front of Xia Changning?
A note on the situation that has not been updated for three days: there is something going on at home, so I returned to my hometown in advance to handle things, and then stayed at home to prepare for the New Year. I got the broadband right today, so I quickly resumed the update, and apologized to my book friends by the way. (To be continued.)
