He immediately took out the map and looked at it carefully, but there was only a small icon of such a village on the map of Yuan County. He looked up blankly, thinking about something in his mind, picked up the briefcase next to him and ran outside.
'Yuhe Village, Yuhe Village.'
He repeated the name of the village and crossed three ferries in a row.
"Excuse me, old man, where is Yuhe Village?" When he was standing on the dock, not knowing which way to go, an old lady carrying something was walking slowly forward. He caught up with her and asked politely.
The old lady glanced at him and pointed: "Young man, you are from another place, right? Yuhe Village is just ahead."
"Yes, old man, I'm from out of town." Li Zhenting's eyes lit up, and he was suddenly very happy. He finally found it.
At this time, the old lady smiled and said, "I am also from Yuhe Village. Young man, if you want to go, come with me."
"Okay, okay, thank you, thank you so much." Li Zhenting was overjoyed. "Auntie, let me help you carry your things."
He took the initiative to carry the things for the old lady, and the two talked as they walked.
"Young man, which group of Yuhe Village are you going to?"
"Auntie, are there many more groups in Yuhe Village?"
"Of course, there are ten groups."
Li Zhenting was stunned. My God, there are ten groups in this village alone. This will be a lot of trouble.
"Auntie, I came to Yuhe Village to look for someone. I don't know which group she lives in now."
"Oh, who are you looking for? What does he do? Is he from our village?" the old lady asked with concern.
She has lived in this village all her life and has never seen such a noble young man. Even his relatives have never heard of him. Now she sees him coming to look for someone, she feels very strange. She really doesn't know which family can have such a noble relative!
"I'm looking for my wife, her name is Chen Ning, she's pregnant now. She's not from your place, she's just staying here temporarily." Li Zhenting thought for a moment and answered truthfully.
"Your wife." The old woman looked at him in surprise. "Why would your pregnant wife come to such a remote place like ours? Who is she staying with?"
Li Zhenting's face was filled with shame, like a child who had done something wrong: "I was wrong to her. She ran away in anger, and I came to find her and take her back."
"Oh, the young couple had a quarrel." A smile appeared on the old lady's face. "It's okay. Husband and wife quarrel at the beginning but make up at the end. As long as you are sincere and patient, you will definitely be able to get your wife back. Young man, your wife is pregnant, you must treat her well. The most difficult thing for a woman is pregnancy and childbirth. It's really not easy. I remember when I was pregnant, I had nothing to eat and was starving. My husband's family treated me badly and often scolded me. I will remember it for the rest of my life."
"Yes, Auntie is right." Li Zhenting felt even more guilty and nodded repeatedly.
"Women's hearts are easily softened, especially since she's pregnant with your child. If you just say nice things and behave nicely, she'll forgive you," the old lady said again, finally asking, "By the way, where is your wife staying?"
"I don't know yet. Have you heard about it? A young pregnant woman came to Yuhe Village?" Li Zhenting asked as they walked to the entrance of the village while talking.
The old lady thought for a moment and shook her head. "My daughter gave birth and was in confinement. I was away for two months and just came back. However, our village usually has very few outsiders coming. It's too remote. There are a few pregnant women now, but they all have names. I haven't heard of any coming from outside."
"Do you know about every household in your village?" Li Zhenting felt heavy in his heart.
"Yes." The old lady nodded affirmatively. "Although there are ten groups, everyone has known about it for decades."
Li Zhenting suddenly remembered something and asked, "Auntie, is there any family here with the surname Dong?"
