Chapter 1137: What a Pretty Lady
The two men couldn’t insist on staying since they didn’t want Yan Yan to be so agitated that it affected her recovery process, so they left reluctantly.
——
It was early autumn.
A white BMW sedan pulled up in front of Mang Village just as it was getting dark.
Lin Ziya pursed her lips after she got off the car and the setting sun made her silhouette seem extremely long.
She kept blinking her bright and clear eyes as though she couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
She couldn’t believe that Shaoqian had lived in such a remote and desolate village for nine years.
What was wrong with this place? It looked extremely backward!
Her impression of local villages was of pretty bungalows that dotted the horizon. She did not expect to see such low-rise mud houses all around Mang Village with only one or two red-brick buildings that barely had any furnis.h.i.+ngs.
Lin Ziya stood by the roadside and looked at the road that was dyed with a golden glow from the setting sun.
It was harvest season, so she spotted many farmers with their straw hats harvesting grain from the fields and children helping with the laborious activities.
Lin Ziya stared at them for a while and she was pulled out of her reverie by the sound of footsteps. She turned to see a middle-aged couple carrying their farming tools.
It was none other than Uncle Yang and his wife.
Lin Ziya stepped up and blocked their path.
“h.e.l.lo auntie, do you know where Gu Shaoqian, no, Chen Jiahang, lives?” Lin Ziya let Shaoqian’s name slipped in a moment of excitement.
After all, Shaoqian lived in her memories just as she only lived in Shaoqian’s memories.
“Chen Jiahang…” the middle-aged woman said with a smile and looked at Lin Ziya speculatively.
She was such a beautiful lady with a great figure, fair skin, and exquisite features while her clothes and aura marked her out as a lady who wasn’t from their village.
If she was looking for Chen Jiahang, could she be…
The middle-aged woman had already figured something out.
“Jiahang stays at the northern ranges. Walk along this road and turn right at the third crossing. Then, if you walk along the small path, you should see a house that is painted white. That is where Jiahang lives. However, he’s probably still at the farm, so you should look for him there,” she said with a smile.
Jiahang was the pride of their village. Everyone recognized him and he had extended help to many of them and improved their livelihood.
Unfortunately, the wife that Jiahang had bought for himself had run away, so he was left alone and childless.
“Auntie, where is the farm?” Lin Ziya asked. She remembered seeing a building that was as large as a factory, so she wondered if that was the farm.
“There it is!” the middle-aged woman said as she pointed at the factory that was 700-800 meters away.
“Thank you, Auntie,” Lin Ziya said as she thanked her with a nod. Then, she turned the car around and soon, she reached the farm.
She parked the car by a gra.s.sy field and stepped out of the car.
She smelled a pungent stench the moment she stepped out of the car. She had never smelled such a terrible smell in her life and immediately threw up.
She crouched on the ground and even threw up the contents of her meals from the previous day.
Three pig farms were located in this area and the stench of pigs and pig droppings could be smelled from several hundred meters away. It was absolutely revolting.
Lin Ziya rose unsteadily to her feet and felt as though she was about to collapse.
She clapped her hand over her nose and walked toward a small path.
