Chapter 227 Five Years of Searching for a Girl

Like Tanjiacun, Jicun is as quiet as a ghost village at night and a lively town during the day! Who would have thought that a village would actually have restaurants, yamen, yizhuang, and spring buildings, and it has begun to take shape as a small town...

There are also people like Tan Wanwan in the village.

His name is Comprador Hong. It is said that he is a man who has studied abroad and learned foreign skills. He is a bit fat and can be easily recognized by wearing a shirt and vest. Uncle Jiu can only have such a great reputation and appeal in Jiucun without the help of this person!

He is very disciplined in doing things, so Uncle Jiu always gives comprador Hong face, and always comes when invited...

Early in the morning, Comprador Hong sent someone over to invite Uncle Jiu to a restaurant he owned.

It turned out that comprador Hong was about to leave the village and take a boat to go abroad soon. Uncle Jiu's birthday was approaching. He was afraid that he would not be able to make it in time, so he called a few friends in advance to invite Uncle Jiu to have a nice meal together and celebrate his birthday in advance. Uncle Jiu was feeling good in his heart.

Comprador Hong is a person who has returned from studying abroad and spends a lot of money. This meal is definitely not simple.

He had an idea and asked Chen Chu and Mao Shanming to come together to show a little bit of the respect that the villagers of Ji Village had for him...

Disciple Aqiang usually looks naughty, but he didn't expect that the reality is even more naughty or even bad, trampling his face as a master to nothing. He must tell Chen Chu and Mao Shanming that his uncle Jiu really has no bad intentions and is also a good person.

! What he fears most is that after Chen Chu and Mao Shanming leave Jicun, the matter will spread to Maoshan...

In restaurants, on the road, in VIP booths.

Uncle Jiu, Chen Chu, Mao Shanming, Comprador Hong and two other famous and powerful people in the village gathered around a table.

Sure enough, the fat comprador Hong was wearing a shirt and vest. He was very good at talking. When he saw two unknown people coming, he raised his glass and looked at Uncle Jiu with a smile: "Our Uncle Jiu doesn't lead people easily. The two of them look dignified and dignified."

Extraordinary, he must be a capable person like Uncle Jiu..."

Uncle Jiu's cheeks turned red and he coughed twice: "It's nothing, you think too highly of me, but these two people around me are indeed extraordinary. The girl on the left is a descendant of the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain, Fang Xiaoyi! The one on the right is

This...is my fellow Maoshan, Maoshan Ming!"

After just a brief contact, he had already discovered that Mao Shanming, despite the title of Mao Shan, was actually an unlearned person, but if he didn't slap someone in the face, forget it.

Chatting with each other at the wine table, the topics ranged from horse thieves to foreign pirates, and even the direction of the financial industry, and the more they talked, the more high-end they became.

Uncle Jiu will not be timid when talking about ghosts and gods, but when talking about foreign things, he will be defeated immediately. Talk less and make fewer mistakes, so that he will not appear ignorant! Mao Shanming is very smart, and he can see things with blind spots when he hears them.

, immediately made an excuse for having an uncomfortable stomach, and thought of doing some exercise downstairs...

The other two people in the village on the field were not good either, but they only said a few words from time to time, "Oh, that's it, ah, two talented people."

Comprador Hong was extremely surprised by the girl named Fang Xiaoyi sitting next to Uncle Jiu. She had so much knowledge and could talk about astronomy and geography. When he wanted to talk a few words, this Fang Xiaoyi

He actually said that he was a little bored after drinking some wine, and wanted to walk downstairs for a while to get some fresh air...

I have no choice but to give up.

This wine shop belongs to Uncle Jiu. Chen Chu didn't expect that Comprador Hong was so eloquent and kept asking questions...

When he came downstairs, he saw Mao Shanming sitting alone on the steps outside the restaurant, watching several children chasing and playing in the street, with a happy expression on his face. There was a bowl next to him with several chicken drumsticks in it.

, there are two ghosts wearing blue shrouds. One is about eighteen years old, and the other is about ten years old. They are tasting with relish...

None other than the two ghosts raised by Maoshan Ming. The big ghost is called Dabao and the little ghost is called Xiaobao. They are a pair of cousins.

Mao Shanming cursed at the ghost brothers, but in actual actions he always thought about things for them, such as the new shrouds they were wearing today, and even went down to order a bowl of food for fear that they would be hungry.

Mao Shanming didn't notice Chen Chu coming downstairs and still looking at the children playing on the street.

His face suddenly changed and he hurriedly ran out. It turned out that several children were playing jumping goats. One child who was playing goat suddenly stood up, causing another child who was just halfway across to be pushed out and fell heavily to the ground, with his hands and arms

When my elbow hits the sharp gravel on the ground, it immediately bleeds...

He asked the waiter for a basin of water and washed away the sand and dirt from the child's wound. The child kept crying and no parents came over. He thought for a moment and took out an old wooden rattle from his arms and gave it to the child. Then he ran to the side and spent some money.

I bought a bunch of candied haws for three pennies and stuffed them into the child's hands to comfort her...

The candied haws on sugar haws are so tempting that the child throws the rattle on the ground and licks the syrup with joy.

Mao Shanming picked up the old rattle and put it into his pocket. He wasn't upset at all. He just touched the child's head and said something about not playing alone...

Chen Chu stood at the door.

Dagui Dabao, who was eating chicken drumsticks, spotted her. Knowing that this girl saved Mao Shanming's life yesterday, he immediately said hello with a smile.

He looked at Mao Shanming's figure and said: "Uncle Ming looks fussy, but he is very generous to his children. Alas, if Uncle Ming's children are still around, they should be as old as Xiaobao..."

Chen Chu was stunned for a moment. Mao Shanming still has children?

Dabao seemed to have not spoken to anyone other than Mao Shanming for a long time, and suddenly the conversation started: "Uncle Ming is from the same village as us. He makes a living by observing Feng Shui and exorcising evil spirits. He accidentally met a wanderer from other places.

Women, they saw each other and decided to get married and live together...

The next year, the woman died in childbirth, but she also gave birth to a very cute girl named Mao Sanmei for Uncle Ming!

Uncle Ming loved her very much, he would take it with him wherever he went out, and he would show it off to everyone. But one day when he went to the market, Uncle Ming took her to the roadside to bargain for a bag of rice, and Mao Sanmei disappeared. There was only one thing on the ground at the scene.

I left behind a rattle that Uncle Ming made himself.

That day Uncle Ming searched like crazy throughout the market, digging almost three feet into the ground, but he couldn't find his Mao Sanmei.

From that day on, Uncle Ming, who loved to be clean and well-groomed, became slovenly, his face became thinner, and his figure lost several laps. In the year after Mao Sanmei disappeared, he traveled all over the country, and suddenly someone told him that he was going to the market.

It seemed that Mao Sanmei was taken away by an outsider that day. Her accent sounded like someone from the other side of the Yellow River...

Uncle Ming immediately packed his luggage and set off. He met my two brothers when he went out of town. Seeing how pitiful we were, he took us out into the world together! After leaving our hometown, Uncle Ming and we found that this world is too scary, deceitful, and everywhere.

It was all deception. Uncle Ming was deceived several times and almost became a beggar on the street. Fortunately, Xiaobao and I were here and we could always get some money back afterwards.

Alas, it has been five years since Uncle Ming left the country this year, and he has never said anything about going back, but I think he must know that Mao Sanmei has been missing for so long...maybe it's like our two brothers...have...sigh...
