Chapter 423 (1/2)
Wang Xiaoman took Hercules and thin monkey to Dagu village in P county according to the address on a Hong's ID card copy.
The three of them met an old man at the entrance of the village. Wang Xiaoman asked respectfully, ”old man, do ah Hong and ah Bao live in this village?”
The old man took a look at the three of them and asked, ”what are you looking for with ah Hong and ah Bao?”
”Old man, we are here to propose marriage.”
Wang Xiaoman pointed to Hercules and said, ”he's my brother. When he was working in other places, he met ah Hong, and they decided to live for life. This time, I came to the door to propose marriage.”
The old man looked at Hercules and asked: ”young man, do you like ah Hong?”
Hercules replied: ”yes, I work with ah Hong. We have a good relationship. I want to marry ah Hong.”
The old man said with regret: ”since you and a Hong are working together, don't you know that a Hong's parents have long passed away, and she has only one brother. They have been working for several years, but they haven't been back home.”
Wang Xiaoman turned his eyes and explained, ”well, my brother and ah Hong have made a private agreement for life. Half a year ago, ah Hong's brother, ah Bao, came. He didn't like my brother, so he took ah Hong away. My brother has been thinking about ah Hong, so he went to her hometown this time.”
The old man pointed to a thatched cottage not far away and said, ”look, that old thatched cottage belongs to ah Hong's family. His brother and sister have never come back, and the house is about to collapse.”
Wang Xiaoman is very disappointed, did not expect to pounce on an empty, had to return to B city.
She ran to Zhuang Lu and asked, ”does ah Hong have a mobile phone?”
Zhuang Lu shook his head and said, ”I've hired these three female workers. Only one of them has a mobile phone.”
”Are the three women working together?”
”At that time, the three of them sat together and joked, so I hired the three of them together. As for whether the three of them are from the same village, I don't know.”
After ah Hong was poisoned, the other two women workers left after three days. As for where they went, Zhuang Lu didn't know.
Wang Xiaoman asked Zhuang Lu about the mobile phone number of one of the female workers. She called the female worker and said, ”Hello, where do you work?”
”Who are you? I don't know you
”Girl, some time ago, you used to take medicine for Guoshu in Xiaozhuang village. I heard that you are diligent and I want to hire you to work.”
”What do you do?”
”My family's fruit trees need pruning. They don't have a heavy life and the salary is relatively high. I'll give you 200 yuan a day for about two months. Would you like to work?”
Wang Xiaoman deliberately painted a big cake with high salary and long working time.
The female worker got on the hook and asked excitedly, ”boss, where's your orchard?”
”It's also in Xiaozhuang village. If you want to do it, come here immediately. I'll wait for you.”
”OK, I'll come over tomorrow. I can arrive at about noon. What's your name, boss?”
”I'll wait for you at the entrance of Xiaozhuang village tomorrow.”
The next day, Wang Xiaoman took Hercules and thin monkey to Xiaozhuang village. The three of them stood at the entrance of the village, quietly waiting for the female worker.
Until 12 o'clock at noon, the female worker finally came. She was a 20-year-old girl with long braids. She looked very smart.
Wang Xiaoman happily asked: ”girl, you have come at last. I'm waiting for you.”
The girl puzzled asked: ”boss, you want to give fruit tree branches, this is not very urgent work.”
Wang Xiaoman asked, ”Miss, may I have your name, please?”
”My name is Zhang Guihua.”
