Unfortunately, no one came for several days. However, several unfamiliar faces appeared in Baipo Village.
Xiao Che guessed that it must be Dong Guangming's men.
So, he simply discussed with Kang Chengxin, "Uncle Chengxin, you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. They're hiding now, and we've searched the whole town and village but can't find them. Why don't we turn the tables on them?"
Uncle Chengxin agreed with this assessment.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad, go ahead, I won't let you die." His words left Xiao Che speechless.
"Hehehe, Uncle Chengxin just loves to joke around."
Kang Chengxin curled his lip and said, "Boring."
He certainly wouldn't let anything happen to Xiao Che; he just liked to tease people.
So, the next day, Xiao Che transformed back into a sallow-skinned, burly, middle-aged, impoverished man.
When he appeared in the village, he naturally attracted the attention of those people.
He pretended not to know and didn't contact Uncle Fugui, Aunt Xu, or Uncle Tiedan, because he didn't want to drag others down with him.
He took the rewritten letter of introduction to the village chief's house.
The village chief opened the door and saw a middle-aged man. He wondered to himself, "Why are so many people coming to the village lately?"
"Who are you?"
Xiao Che smiled with a simple and honest expression. "It's like this. I came from the capital to find my relatives. Back then, our village suffered a drought, and my family either died or were scattered on the way to escape the famine."
"We've been looking for our family for so many years. A while ago we found out that my two aunts had fled to Baipo Village and settled there, so we came here to look for them."
Upon hearing this, the village chief became suspicious and began to wonder if those two people were actually in his village.
He took the letter of introduction from him and looked at it. Hmm, it's definitely fine. His surname is Wang?
Suddenly, he remembered that there really were two such women in his village!
Back then, Wang Hua and Wang Cui's household registration was helped by their father!
"Come in, come in!"
Now that he had thought of the right person, he naturally wanted to tell them. But how could he bring up the tragic story of the Wang sisters?
Xiao Che followed the village chief into his home with great gratitude.
"Thank you." He took the tea that the village chief's wife brought him and took a sip.
The village chief was still worried about how to tell the story of what happened back then without hurting anyone.
His already troubled face became even more troubled.
Xiao Che already knew about the Wang sisters' situation and was aware of the village chief's predicament. He hadn't come here specifically to find out about the Wang sisters.
He just wanted to spread the word through the village chief that he was related to the Wang sisters.
Once those people find out, they'll definitely come looking for him.
The village chief finally organized his thoughts and began to speak slowly.
Xiao Che listened attentively, and what Xu Niangniang said was almost identical; neither of them was lying.
"Oh! That's how it is, you're late..."
Xiao Che felt depressed when he heard about the two sisters' experiences with the real Dong Guangming again.
"It's alright, thank you for telling me... Next, I'd like to have my two aunts' graves repaired, which will probably require me to stay in the village for a few days. Could you please arrange that for me, Village Chief?" He will definitely give their family justice!
The village chief didn't object, which is only natural.
"Okay, you can stay at my house. My grandson went to work in town, so you can stay in his room."
