I called Wang Li early the next morning, after all, the time is short and the task is heavy, and I promised Lu Lingyun and Lin Qiuyang that they would go back in two days.

But what should I do if I can't finish the investigation? So now we have to hurry up.

I took a taxi from the town and drove directly to Xiafang Village.

On the way, Wang Li has been calling her mobile phone to deal with the company's affairs remotely, and I guess she doesn't know which village my hometown is in, which is very good and should be easy to bluff.

"Brother, Xiafang Village has arrived." The driver's eldest brother reminded me that I quickly settled the car payment.

After getting out of the car, I took a deep breath of the fragrance in the field, and looked back to see that Wang Li's high heels had sunk into the mud.

That's what I want, it's too easy to get rid of a girl from the city.

"Secretary Wang? Shoes don't work, you see your heels are too high, it's definitely not easy to walk on dirt roads, come, I'll help you to sit in the shade for a while. ”

Wang Li did not refuse my support, and carefully tiptoed to a stone bench under a big tree and sat down.

I pretended to look around, shook my head helplessly, and said, "You are unable to move, just wait for me here, I will go to my relative's house to take a look, and I will come to you soon." ”

"No, Mr. Lin asked me to be by your side at any time."

"Hey~~ What's the matter, you will follow me when I go to the thatched house, you see you are dressed so beautifully, don't walk back and forth with me, you don't know that the road in the countryside is full of cow and sheep dung, how disgusting it is for you to step on it again." I picked on the things that made her unbearable, but her expression was still resolute.

Why is this woman so stubborn? I always felt that I was strange enough, but I didn't expect that there were people outside the mountain, Wang Li took off the high heels on her feet, stood up in flesh-colored stockings, carried her bag in one hand and shoes in the other, and said: "Vice President Yan, let's go, don't take care of me." ”

"No, if you walk like this, your feet will be cut, and the ground is full of stones, don't you see?"

"Does it matter? My feet don't hurt, and I believe the stones don't either. ”

"You..." was really speechless, followed behind her and grabbed her arm, and said anxiously: "You wait, I'll think of a way for you." ”

I found a villager and bought a pair of flat cloth shoes for her to wear for 100 yuan, which was to save her feet.

"Thank you." Wang Li said a word of thanks with an expressionless face.

On the way to find a distant relative's house, I asked some about her personal situation, it turned out that Wang Li is not only beautiful, but also has a high degree of education, what is a high-achieving student who graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, and after returning to China, he came directly to Lin Qiuyang's company as the president's secretary.

I wonder why she chose my brother's company, as far as I know, Shunde logistics is a company that just started five or six years ago, with Wang Li's conditions can choose a better company, she told me that although the old large enterprises have a high salary, it is like wood that has been eaten by insects, and there is always such and such a relationship.

Choosing Lin Qiuyang's company, she also considered it in many ways, which is risky but has more obvious advantages.

I really admired this woman more and more, and even felt that if she came to be my sister-in-law, she would be perfect.

I deliberately matched her and Lin Qiuyang's affairs, and thought about talking to him when I went back to talk to him.

After going around Xiafang Village twice, I couldn't remember which door and courtyard the relative's house I came to when I was a child, so I had no choice but to call Yan Huan first.

"Hey, Huan'er, it's me, let me ask you something, do you remember when you were a child, we came together in Xiafang Village, where is the second aunt and her cousin's house?"

"Cousin, what are you doing here?" Yan Huan didn't know what he was eating, so he asked while eating.

"Something, you say you remember?"

"Remember! The entrance of the village goes in and walks two times, there is a small shop in the south of the road, go along the road next to the store, and then go to the room twice, you see if there is a big tree on the right, see the tree and look forward, it should be a green tile house, red paint door, so many years, I don't know if I have re-built? ”

After I heard Yan Huan finish speaking, my head was 'buzzing', which is much more difficult than GPS positioning.

Just about to hang up the phone, I heard the girl shouting, "Cousin, are you going home!" I'll look for you, you wait, I'll take you to find it. ”

"No, no, you just turn the floor at home, don't come over and make trouble."

"What's the trouble, you wait, I'll be there soon."

I put down the phone and looked at Secretary Wang and smiled awkwardly.

"So Vice President Yan isn't going to help others prepare for weddings?"

I couldn't lie in front of smart people, so I had to tell her frankly that I knew a friend and wanted to come back to ask something, there was no danger, and she should not tell my brother.

She didn't agree, she didn't refuse, she would depend on the situation.

I can't care if my mouth is on her face, and I try my best to appease her.

It didn't take half an hour for Yan Huan to drive the family's farm car to Xiafang Village, she was so happy to see me that she hugged me for a long time and was reluctant to let go.

"Huan'er... Huan'er is obedient, my cousin still has something. ”

"I'll take you there, come, get in the car."

Wang Li and I jumped into Yan Huan's farm vehicle, crossed several village roads, and soon stopped outside a blue-tiled house with a red-painted gate.

"That's it, cousin, you can find it."

"Huan'er's memory is really good, that's okay, you go back quickly, or your cousin and aunt should talk about you again."

I wanted to send her back, but she firmly refused to go in with me.

In desperation, I had to knock on the door with them.

The one who came to open the door was a middle-aged woman, and the cousin who hadn't seen the second lady for a few years was much older, with more folds at the corners of her eyes and darker complexion.

"Who? Who are you looking for? ”

I thought for a while and said, "Is it Yanqiang's cousin's house?" ”

The woman was stunned and thought for a long time before she reacted, and said happily: "Oh, Mom, I think of you, are you Yancheng?" ”

"Yes, yes, good cousin."

"This is Huan'er~~ It's grown so big." The woman opened the red lacquered door and invited us into the courtyard.

Thinking that I was embarrassed to come empty-handed, I took out a few hundred from my wallet and stuffed it into my cousin's hand, and said, "I came back in too much hurry to bring gifts, so you can take them with a little heart." ”

"What kind of money are you going to give?"

"Hey~~ Cousin, don't push it, I have something to ask you."

"What's the matter? Something in the house said to go. ”

My cousin put the money in her apron pocket and smiled very happily, and the three of us sat down in the big house, and she was busy taking fruits and drinks, and I persuaded her for a long time before she calmed down.

Yan Huan and Wang Li didn't know the purpose of my coming to Xiafang Village, and everyone's eyes were focused on me, so I asked, "Cousin, let me ask you about something, do you know that there is a person named Dong Dali in this village?" ”

"You ask Dali, you know, he's not been back for years, what are you asking him for?"

"Haven't I been living in Fengtian, I recently heard that there is a friend surnamed Dong, who seems to be called Dong Dali, and I am a fellow countryman, I came back to inquire about him."

"Just tell your cousin about this, I know everything about their family in the past few years."
