Han Zhenyu waved to Sun Dashu and the others, and with a smile pulled Lu Yiming, who was about to escape, over.
"Okay, we've had enough to drink today, so let's stop here and eat."
Several people put down their wine glasses and chatted with Lu Yiming about their local customs and interesting stories.
Because they had a pleasant chat, they ate their meal and drank two pots of strong tea before leaving.
Han Zhenyu and Su Xieqiu were afraid something might happen, so they personally sent them back.
When they returned home, Chenchen had already taken Lu Yiming to wash up and was sitting on the kang watching the twins act funny.
Han Zhenyu stood at the door and asked with a smile: "Haohao, Xuanxuan, where are you two going to sleep tonight?"
"Dad, we like Uncle Lu and want to sleep with him tonight. Is that okay?" Haohao said.
Before Han Zhenyu could speak, Lu Yiming patted his fat butt and said, "Just sleep here."
Haohao and Xuanxuan were very happy. One hugged his neck and the other hugged his waist. The three of them fell on the kang laughing.
Han Zhenyu smiled and shook his head, said a few words to Chenchen, and helped them close the door.
Su Xieqiu took out his home clothes and prepared to take a shower.
Although it is not too hot now, she has been busy all day and has sweated a lot. She can't sleep without taking a shower.
Han Zhenyu knew her habits, and after coming out of Lu Yiming's room, he went to help her pour the bath water.
It took half an hour for the couple to lie down on the kang. Tiantian slept with her great-grandmother today, and it was a rare quiet night for the two of them, so they tossed and turned for a long time.
After breakfast the next day, Han Zhenyu and Lu Yiming went to the city to inquire about the news.
Although Lu Yiming didn't like his cousin, she was his second uncle's daughter after all, so he still hoped to find her as soon as possible.
Han Zhenyu took another day off and took him to the county government to inquire.
He knew that County Chief Chang was very busy and did not want to disturb him, so he took Lu Yiming to the armed forces department opposite.
Wu Heping came from the family building at the back and was about to enter the office when he saw Han Zhenyu waiting downstairs. There was also a man with good temperament standing next to him.
Wu Heping was surprised and asked, "Zhenyu, when did you come here? Why didn't you go home?"
Han Zhenyu smiled and said, "Brother Wu, we just arrived too. Do you have time? I want to ask you something."
It was working hours and there were people coming and going nearby, so Wu Heping took them to the office.
When he heard their purpose, he was very surprised. He said, "I just came back from a business trip and don't know about this yet. Wait a minute, I'll go ask."
After Wu Heping finished speaking, he left the office. About ten minutes later, he hurried back.
"Zhenyu, Comrade Lu, at five o'clock in the morning, people from the Armed Forces and the Public Security Bureau set out for the Lishu Brigade, saying that they were there to rescue abducted women. It was County Chief Chang who personally issued the order."
“That’s great.”
Han Zhenyu and Lu Yiming stood up and thanked him: "Brother Wu, we won't disturb you from working then."
Wu Heping did have a lot of things to deal with, so he sent them downstairs and said a few words of comfort with a smile.
"Comrade Lu, don't worry too much. There are more than 30 people from the armed forces alone this time. Together with the Public Security Bureau, they will definitely rescue your cousin."
"Thank you, Director Wu. I believe in the government." Lu Yiming said a few more words of thanks and left the armed forces department with Han Zhenyu.
Han Zhenyu asked him, "Are you waiting here, or do you want to go over and take a look?"
“Is it far?”
"It's about ten miles away. If you want to go, I'll borrow a bicycle. It will take no more than half an hour to get there. We won't go up the mountain. We'll just wait for you downstairs." Han Zhenyu said.
"Let's go and take a look." Lu Yiming took his bicycle and threw the bag on the handlebars.
Han Zhenyu returned to the armed forces department, rode out Wu Heping's bicycle, and the two went to the Lishu Brigade.
When they arrived, they saw two jeeps and a truck parked at the foot of the mountain, with a soldier in military uniform guarding them.
Han Zhenyu parked his bicycle on the side of the road and walked towards the soldier with a smile, "Hello comrade, may I ask how long has the comrade from the armed forces department been up there? When can he come down?"
"What do you do? Why are you asking these questions?" The soldier looked at the two of them warily.
Han Zhenyu was afraid that he might misunderstand, so he quickly explained: "Comrade, this is what happened. One of our relatives was trafficked to Lishu Brigade, and our family was very worried, so we followed him to take a look."
The soldier was very principled. He didn't reveal anything. He just said he didn't know and ignored them.
Han Zhenyu and Lu Yiming could only wait nearby. Not long after, they suddenly heard several gunshots. They looked at each other and looked towards the path on the mountain.
Lu Yiming narrowed his eyes and said, "They actually fired guns. It seems that those people are really wild."
Han Zhenyu nodded in agreement. "They have hunting rifles in their hands, and they deal with wild animals all year round. Because of the terrain, the government has been a little negligent in management. Those people think they are local emperors and don't even pay attention to the people in the armed forces."
"Oh, I hope we can rescue him successfully, otherwise my uncle will be heartbroken."
Lu Yiming took out a cigarette from his pocket, smoked one and put it in his mouth, then asked Han Zhenyu, "Do you want one?"
Han Zhenyu waved his hand. He used to smoke occasionally a few years ago, but he quit smoking after getting married because his wife didn't like the smell of cigarettes.
Han Zhenyu found a rock to sit on and asked Lu Yiming, who was smoking beside him, "How old is your cousin this year?"
"Eighteen or nineteen? I forgot."
Lu Yiming thought his second aunt was too nosy, so he seldom asked about his second uncle's family affairs, and his relationship with his cousins was just average.
