Chapter 334 Find out clearly
Wang Xun and Deng Wanwan bought tickets to the capital, but there were still three hours before departure.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Xun took Deng Wanwan to a public telephone and called his cousin, Director Wang, in front of Deng Wanwan.
Gao Mingcheng's clothing store didn't have a telephone yet, so he naturally couldn't call there.
After the call was connected, Wang Xun briefly explained what had happened, and then asked his cousin to ask someone to take a message to Gao Mingcheng to let him know where Deng Wanwan was.
After making this phone call, Deng Wanwan felt much more relieved. Next, she followed Wang Xun to find a restaurant for dinner, and then it was almost time to enter the station and take the bus.
After staying on the train for nearly two days, a dizzy Deng Wanwan finally got off the train with Wang Xun.
Someone had come to pick up the car. It was Wang Xun's cousin. When he saw Wang Xun wearing a suit and with a young girl, he frowned and said, "The clothes you are wearing are not good. I will take you to buy some cheap clothes tomorrow!"
"Ah Xun, who is this girl? Does she have good eyesight or good craftsmanship?"
The cousin's series of questions confused Wang Xun. He had been on the train for two days and was exhausted and his mind was not very clear.
He said, "Wanwan can write and keep accounts. I plan to let her do the accounting work."
His cousin immediately refused, saying, "No, you brought it with you first! Let's talk about it when we can start working!"
Deng Wanwan felt uneasy about her cousin's attitude, but she was happy to stay with Wang Xun.
So the next day, they put on the cheap clothes prepared by their cousin, and they looked a lot shabbyer.
The cousin gave Wang Xun a cart and said to him, "Take this little girl to Nanluoguxiang to collect junk. I'll test your eyesight!"
"Hey, okay!"
So Wang Xun took Deng Wanwan to Nanluoguxiang. When they got there, Wang Xun became excited.
He saw that almost every household had some old items, and he wanted to buy them at a scrap price, but he could only barely understand the language of the capital, but could not speak it.
Therefore, the residents here were not willing to sell their junk to him.
When leaving Nanluoguxiang, Wang Xun felt a pain on his face.
At this time, Deng Wanwan didn't know that what she thought of as collecting rags was actually fundamentally different from what Wang Xun meant by collecting rags.
Deng Wanwan: Collecting junk is my main business.
Wang Xun: Picking up bargains is our main job!
…
At the same time Deng Wanwan boarded the train, Deng Zhiyong arrived at the Xinxin Clothing Store.
He found Gao Shufang and told her that Deng Wanwan would not come here to work anymore, so he was going to take Deng Wanwan's bedding away.
Gao Shufang was dumbfounded. She felt that things had not yet come to this point, so she wanted to explain and asked Deng Wanwan to come back and continue working.
But Deng Zhiyong didn't say much. He took Deng Wanwan's bedding and some luggage and left.
After Deng Zhiyong left, Gao Shufang thought for a while, temporarily closed the door of the clothing store, then quickly went to the police station and found Huang Dazhi.
Her fourth brother went to work at the factory this morning, and now she is alone at home. Wanwan's departure is a big deal, so she has to inform her second brother as soon as possible.
Her second brother and his wife are not around, and now Wanwan is gone too. She is afraid that she cannot manage the clothing store business by herself.
"Don't worry, I will go to Gaojia Village now and tell Mingcheng about this." After listening to Gao Shufang's story, Huang Dazhi immediately agreed to the task.
After seeing Gao Shufang off, Huang Dazhi said something to his colleagues and then rode his bicycle to Gaojia Village.
This is the job of a police officer. When there are no cases, they have relatively free time.
When Huang Dazhi arrived at Gao Mingcheng's home, Gao Mingcheng was cooking lunch. Xuanyue couldn't stand the smell of cooking fumes, so she wandered around the vegetable garden and pulled out some weeds that were annoying.
When someone approached, the two dogs noticed it in advance, so they ran towards the person, growling threateningly, but after recognizing that it was an acquaintance, the ferocity emanating from the two dogs diminished.
"Dazhi, why are you here?" Manyumei saw Huang Dazhi and greeted him.
"Duomei, is Mingcheng at home?" Huang Dazhi asked.
"Here I am, cooking. You can eat here with me at noon!"
"Okay." Huang Dazhi responded casually, then put away his bicycle and walked towards the kitchen.
The kitchen was filled with the smell of oil and salt, and the air was filled with the smell of dried cowpeas stewed with bacon.
The cowpeas were picked when they were ripe in large quantities last summer. They were blanched in boiling water until half-cooked, then rubbed with salt and dried, and stored in jars. When eaten, they were chopped and cooked with meat. They tasted very good.
Today, Xuanmei said she wanted to eat dried cowpeas, so Gao Mingcheng arranged it for her.
Gao Mingcheng was also a little surprised to see Huang Dazhi coming.
"Ming Cheng, something happened! Deng Wanwan ran away alone last night. This morning, her father Deng Zhiyong came and took away her bedding, saying that Deng Wanwan had gone out of town. I found out clearly that before Deng Wanwan ran away, your fourth brother said that he liked Deng Wanwan, but Deng Wanwan disagreed and then left."
Huang Dazhi succinctly recounted what had happened, with a look of worry on his face.
He also knew about Deng Wanwan's experiences.
Later, when he learned that Deng Wanwan was working in Gao Mingcheng's store, he was happy for her.
But I didn't expect something like this to happen.
Deng Wanwan, a little girl, went to another place. Where could she go? Would she encounter any difficulties?
Gao Mingcheng was also stunned. This was too much information. After a while, he said, "After lunch, we will go back to the county!"
As for where Deng Wanwan went and what happened between her and Gao Mingli, he wanted to know all of this, but if he asked Huang Dazhi, he was afraid that he would not get anything.
And once Deng Wanwan left, Gao Shufang was the only one left in the clothing store, and he was afraid that Gao Shufang would be too busy to handle it.
So after lunch, the three of them packed up and went back to the county.
Huang Dazhi did not ride his bike either. Instead, he moved the bike into the tractor's bed and sat in the bed with Xuanyuemei.
It was still a little cold in early spring, so many girls deliberately wore an extra coat and a thick hat for fear of catching a wind.
We hurried all the way to the county and parked the tractor in the backyard of the Xinxin Clothing Store.
Huang Dazhi took the bicycle down and said, "Mingcheng, I'm going back to the police station first."
"Okay, don't worry, I will take care of it." Gao Mingcheng nodded, then opened the door to the backyard and walked in.
Hearing the noise, Gao Shufang looked over quickly. When she saw her second brother and his wife, she was so excited that she wanted to cry.
Gao Mingcheng first asked Xuanyuemei to rest, and then he asked Gao Shufang about what happened at that time.
Gao Shufang actually didn't know much about the matter, but she told everyone she knew.
Gao Mingcheng listened with a frown, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.
This dissatisfaction originated from the fact that after Deng Wanwan left alone, Gao Mingli did not ask for leave to look for her the next day, but went to work at the factory.
He could actually understand that Gao Mingli was a relatively honest person, so he didn't dare to ask for leave. Besides, he also took work very seriously, so he didn't ask for leave but went to work.
But this also shows that Gao Mingli’s so-called love is actually worthless.
Although Deng Wanwan did not agree to him, the woman you love has left alone, and you don’t know whether she is safe. How can you go to work with peace of mind?
If you don't like it that much, why bother to provoke it?
After finding out everything, Gao Mingcheng said, "I'll go to Deng's hometown and ask Deng Wanwan's parents."
As he said this, he planned to drive a tractor to Deng's hometown.
At this time, a young man entered the store. Gao Mingcheng found him familiar and recognized him as someone who worked at the Cultural Relics Management Office.
As soon as the man came in, he said, "Gao Mingcheng, Director Wang asked me to come here to tell you that the girl who used to work in your store is now working in the capital with Director Wang's nephew. Director Wang's nephew is called Wang Xun, and he is a very reliable person. Don't worry."
Gao Mingcheng didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. Just when he was worried about Deng Wanwan's safety, someone came to deliver a message.
He sent the young man away and then went to Deng's hometown again.
He wanted to know more about the inside story, and also tell Deng Wanwan's parents that Deng Wanwan had gone to the capital so that they could put their minds at ease.
Soon, he arrived at Dengjiaxiang and parked the tractor on the side of the road.
The residents in Dengjiaxiang live very densely, and the alleys are small, so tractors can't even enter.
Gao Mingcheng had never been to Deng Wanwan's home before, but Xuanyuemei had been there twice. According to Xuanyuemei's words, he quickly found Deng Wanwan's home.
The gate of Deng Wanwan's house was closed, but through the gap in the door, one could see a half-finished palm mat placed under the eaves.
This is what Deng Zhiyong promised to make for his daughter. He had made a mat before, and this palm mat had just been made and was not finished yet, but Deng Wanwan no longer worked in the clothing store.
There was no one at home, so I asked the neighbors and learned that Deng Zhiyong and his wife were working in the fields.
So Gao Mingcheng went to the field again, and only then did he learn from Deng Zhiyong and his wife what happened to Deng Wanwan after she left.
Gao Mingcheng was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Finally, he told Deng Zhiyong and his wife what Director Wang had told them, and then he took out some money, handed it over, and said, "This is Wanwan's salary. She left suddenly, and her salary hasn't been settled yet."
Deng Zhiyong and his wife were surprised and happy to know that their daughter had gone to the capital. When Gao Mingcheng handed over the money, they refused it at first, but eventually accepted it.
