Chapter 43 Fang Qingyun
The two little pigs don’t weigh much, but they eat a lot. Lu Xing bought two bags of feed, which he estimated would be enough for one or two months.
Originally, she was the only one who ate the vegetables grown at home. Now that there are two more pigs in the family, she has to buy some seeds and go home to plant more sweet potatoes and the like.
When I asked Liu Hehua to borrow a car yesterday, Lu Zhengde happened to be going to the village to get a letter, so the two of them went together.
Seeing him coming out of the post office, Lu Xing asked, "Village Chief, do you have the letter from that little girl last time?"
Lu Yue used to wait at the village entrance every day, but she gave up after hearing no news.
The village chief flipped through the letters in his hand and found that there was indeed a letter written to Lu Yue, which was sent from outside.
"It seems there really is one sent to Lu Xin's mother. I wonder if it's the little girl you mentioned."
He looked again and found that there was another one sent to Lu Xing.
"Auntie, there's another package for you. The sender is Liu Fangfang. She wrote on the box that she was sending you some local specialties to thank you for taking her in for a few days."
"This girl is quite nice. She only stayed for two days, and she even thought of sending you some local specialties after she left."
The package was quite large. Lu Xing opened it when he got home and saw two jars of his own pickled radishes and a piece of homemade pickled meat inside.
There were too many pickled radishes and she couldn't finish them all by herself, so she planned to share some with Liu Hehua and Lian Hua's family.
When I was delivering the pickled radish, I happened to see Lu Yue coming to the village chief's house to pick up a letter. She was sweating profusely, obviously having run over.
The village chief gave her the letter.
Lu Yue stood there, arms folded, looking at the letter in the village chief's hand with a complicated look in her eyes. In the end, she didn't take the letter. "Village chief, please help me read it. I can't read."
The village chief opened the letter and found a graduation photo inside, which fell out as he opened the letter.
Lu Xing was standing nearby and picked it up. She found that it was a graduation photo from many years ago, but her eyesight was poor and she couldn't see the faces in the photo clearly.
The village chief glanced at the contents of the letter and said, "Sister-in-law, the girl went back to school according to the time you mentioned, and asked around. She had never heard of anyone named Fang Jian. She also went to her teacher to ask around, but she hadn't heard of the name either."
Hearing this, Lu Yue didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or feel disappointed. "Yeah, how could I find it so quickly? Thank you for asking for me."
"Don't worry, the girl was afraid that the teacher would make mistakes after a while, so she even asked the teacher for the graduation photos of that class."
Seeing that she was about to leave after listening, the village chief quickly stopped her.
Lu Yue took the photo without hope, thinking that she had never heard of the person's name and it was probably not in the photo.
There were fewer college students more than a decade ago, and graduation photos only had three rows of students.
She glanced over and spotted a familiar face in the crowd. "Hey, Village Chief, come and take a look. Is this person Fang Jian?"
She was afraid that she was too excited and recognized the wrong person, so she quickly pulled the village chief to come and confirm.
When Fang Jian went to the countryside, the village chief was still a young man. Because his father was helping the educated youth with the procedures for returning to the city, he was there and had some impression of this educated youth.
After all, there are not many people like him who spoke tearfully before leaving and then turned against his will so quickly after completing the procedures for returning to the city.
He took the photo and looked in the direction of Lu Yue's finger. "Yes, it's him. Then why didn't that girl Liu Fangfang hear about this name?"
The two people were wondering, and when they checked the photo over and over again, they found the student's name written on the back of the photo.
They searched one by one according to the names, and found that Fang Jian's corresponding name was Fang Qingyun.
"Did he change his name after he went to college?"
The village chief felt a little strange. "That's not right. If he changed his name, others must have heard of it. Otherwise, wouldn't it match the name on the admission letter?"
"So it's been a long time and everyone has forgotten?"
Several people thought about it over and over but couldn't figure it out.
Lu Yue: "It's okay, it's not important. Now that I've finally found news about him, I'm going to go find him."
"Village chief, please help me check the address this letter was sent to."
"This." The village chief hesitated, worried that Lu Yue would do something wrong after he said it. "When you do things, you should think about your health and your children at home."
"Don't worry, Village Chief. I'm not such an impulsive person."
Finally, the village chief told her the address.
After she left, Lu Xing and Liu Hehua started chatting, "Lu Yue doesn't look like she's going to give up."
"Alas, there's no way to stop her. That man ruined her life, and her parents even lost their lives because of this. Now that there's news, how could she not go and look for him?"
"Yes, I hope that if she really wants to look for someone, she can find it successfully."
When the two talked about this matter, they were also happy for Lu Yue. After so many years, there was finally some news. They all thought that Lu Yue would be able to achieve her wish this time when she found someone.

In the evening, Lu Xing came back late and was too lazy to light a fire to cook. Thinking of the local specialties Liu Fangfang had sent her during the day, she simply cooked some porridge and ate it with pickled radish.
I don’t know how Liu Fangfang pickles the radishes, but they are sour, spicy and a little sweet, which is very appetizing.
Lu Xing unknowingly ate half a bowl of porridge more.
Bored, she thought of Fang Jian whom she had mentioned during the day. She wondered what would happen if he had changed so much that she couldn't recognize him after so many years.
"System, can you simulate a person's appearance in middle age and old age based on their appearance in youth?"
[The accuracy is only 80%, and it requires a full 3D scan of the other party's 3D data. If it's a 2D photo, the simulation result will be even worse.]
[Host, are you asking if you can simulate Fang Jian's current appearance? ]
"Yes, think about it. More than ten years have passed, and people's appearances will definitely change. I don't know if Lu Yue can find him based on just a name."
"It would be much easier to find him if I had a photo of him now."
[If the host wants to see it, I can simulate it based on the photo taken during the day. Although there will be some deviation, it should be useful as a reference.]
"System, thank you."
【You're welcome. 】
The image of a little chick suddenly appeared in Lu Xing's mind, with the little chick puffing out its chest and looking very proud.
Because he was too excited to hear the thanks, the system accidentally synchronized with Lu Xing, and his image was exposed.
It turns out that it’s not a puppy, but a chick.
Lu Xing pretended not to notice, "Thank you for the hard work, system."
To thank the system for its help, Lu Xing plans to knit a little chicken doll for it.
"Aunt Lu, Aunt Lu, are you asleep?" Lu Yue's voice suddenly came from outside.
She went to open the door and said, "No, I was just eating. What's wrong?"
Lu Yue was carrying a basket of vegetables, and the expression on her face was exactly the same as the day He Gu came to ask her for help.
She suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, the other party opened his mouth and said, "Auntie, I know this request may be a little difficult, but I have no other choice now."
"I heard that you are very good at finding people, sister-in-law. I wonder if you would like to go to another place with me."
Lu Xing just raised his hand and before he could say no, Lu Yue grabbed his hand and stuffed a wad of money into it.
"Auntie, I know this is difficult for you. I'll pay for the journey, and I don't want you to go there in vain. Here's twenty yuan for your service fee."
At that time, farming at home could only earn her six or seven hundred yuan a year. Lu Yue also had to support Lu Xin's studies. After deducting the family's food and clothing expenses, she might have saved these twenty yuan for a long time.
They are all scattered bills.
Lu Xing felt the hand holding her trembling, and the words of rejection circled around in his mouth for a few times, but he still didn't say it.
"I'm not sure I can find the person I'm looking for."
"I know, I know, it's just...it's just..." She lowered her head and didn't finish her words.
Seeing her like this, Lu Xing didn't know how to refuse.
"Then let's go. I haven't been to Province N yet. It would be nice to go out and have some fun."
After Lu Yue realized Lu Xing's refusal attitude, she gave up hope. Unexpectedly, she was actually persuaded by her in the end.
"Thank you, thank you, auntie."
It was strange, since Fang Jian passed away, she seemed to have cried all the tears she had in her life. After her parents passed away, she was so sad that she couldn't cry anymore.
But now, she seemed able to cry again.
