Chapter 611 (1/2)
The boatman thinks that Chang Wen is a member of the Shi family. His daughter is forced by the Shi family to commit suicide by jumping into the river. The boatman has to avenge this hatred. Since Chang Wen comes to the boatman's house, it's natural for him to pour out his resentment on him.
Chang Wen sighed and asked, ”Madame, do you think I look like a bad person?”
The little widow shook her head and replied, ”of course you are not a bad person. I think you are a good man, but you are very cunning.”
”Why am I so cunning?”
”Handsome boy, last time, you were sleeping in the closet. What's the matter?”
”I said, I got out of bed in a daze. I didn't know where I was. I got into the closet in a daze and slept in it all night.”
The little widow looked at Chang Wen suspiciously and asked, ”you didn't tell the truth. That night, you drank too much. Why didn't you get drunk?”
”I'm drunk. I must be drunk. Otherwise, how could I get into the closet in a muddle?”
The little widow Yin Yin said: ”handsome boy, you ah, many famous, that night, God knows what happened.”
That day, Chang Wenming drank the ecstasy wine. Normally, he should be unconscious. How could he get up at night.
Chang Wen asked for a bowl of noodles and two meat buns and ate them with relish.
The landlady sat beside Chang Wen and watched him eat without blinking.
Chang Wen asked, ”do I have flowers on my face?”
”Ha ha... In my eyes, you are full of flowers.”
The little widow began to be ambiguous again, which made Chang Wen a little tired, but he was also a little happy.
When the little widow takes a fancy to Chang Wen, Chang Wen can make use of it to let the little widow listen to him and do something for him.
At least, the little widow won't hurt him.
Chang Wen asked, ”Madame, last time I saw a midwife, aunt Qian, here. Is she OK?”
”She still comes to me every three to five to ask for some meat buns.”
”Landlady, where does aunt Qian live? Can you take me to her house
Little widow puzzled asked: ”little handsome boy, what do you want money for?”
”I have some gynecological problems that I want to ask her.”
The little widow was puzzled and said, ”there are so many hospitals and so many famous doctors in your city. Why do you want to consult a country midwife?”
”Madame, you don't know something about it. The doctors in the city only know how to treat diseases according to the books. However, the midwives in the countryside have a way to find out for themselves. Don't underestimate these prescriptions. They can take care of big things.”
The little widow nodded and admitted, ”yes, it's true. Some folk remedies just work.”
At nine o'clock in the evening, all the diners left. The little widow took Chang Wen to Qian's wife's house.
Aunt Qian lives in the west end of the town, with two dilapidated tile houses and a small yard full of sundries.
The door of the small yard was open, and the two entered the yard.
The tile house is dark, as if there is no one in it.
The little widow cried out, ”are you at home, aunt Qian?”
Three times in a row, no one in the room answered.
The little widow said, ”it seems that Aunt Qian hasn't come back yet. Come back tomorrow.”
Chang Wen said, ”landlady, thank you for bringing me here. Go back first. I'll wait here.”
The little widow said, ”no one goes out of our town at night. Be careful not to be robbed.”
