Jinsha District, Jinsha Park, this is a district close to the border of the Magic City, and Jinsha Park was built more than ten years ago. According to rumors, the leaders at the time wanted to build a leisure, vacation and entertainment industry here, but later
The land acquisition was stopped due to some problems.
After the district leader left, the place became even more uninterested. The property that was once expensive in Luoyang became uninterested.
Therefore, the residents here are full of regret. If they had agreed to the land expropriation, they would have been able to get at least one or two houses in the city and a generous compensation based on the land they had at that time.
When Ling Chuchu drove her luxury car here, especially when she arrived at Cotton Candy Village, she attracted the attention of many residents along the way.
"stop!"
Fang Ming, who was sitting in the passenger seat and looking out through the car window, suddenly spoke. Ling Chuchu braked and the car stopped safely at the entrance of the village.
"Geng Metal Fire, Mushu Metal, it should be here."
Fang Ming's eyes fell on a maple leaf forest not far away. It was the maple leaf forest in Jinsha Park, but it was not yet the season for the maple leaves to turn red.
"Lao Sha, if I guessed correctly, your wife should be nearby. Go down and ask."
Lao Sha's face showed excitement and anticipation, and he held a photo tightly in his hand. It was a photo of his wife, which was taken by his wife three years ago.
Fang Ming had seen this photo before. Lao Sha's wife was sitting in a wheelchair, and Lao Sha was pushing the wheelchair from behind. Lao Sha had a happy expression on his face, but his wife had no expression on her face, but she looked very happy.
It is quiet and elegant.
However, judging from the photos, Lao Sha’s daughter-in-law is still very beautiful. Even though she is almost forty years old, her skin is still fair and smooth. If you look at her face, everyone who sees Lao Sha’s daughter-in-law will probably say something with emotion.
A flower is stuck on the cow dung.
According to Lao Sha, it was indeed his advantage that his wife was able to marry him, because his wife had been smart since she was a child, but she only went to junior high school and stopped studying because of her inconvenient legs and feet.
But even so, her daughter-in-law did not give up. When she was at home, she studied literature, wrote poems, and articles. She also joined their local Writers Association and became a poet and writer.
His wife is good-looking and talented. In Lao Sha's opinion, marrying his wife is a great blessing, so since he got married, he has loved his wife very much over the years, doing all the dirty work.
He does all the laundry and cooking, while his wife just surfs the Internet, reads books, and writes articles at home every day.
During Lao Sha's narration, Fang Ming had a picture in his mind: an honest and uneducated man from the mountains suddenly married a beautiful and talented woman. Although the woman had some stubborn health problems, the man still felt that this was a blessing from God.
Because of his attachment to him, he did everything he could to be kind to this woman. As long as it was a request made by this woman, he would do his best to satisfy it no matter what the request was.
Fang Ming and the others got out of the car, and there happened to be a house on the roadside. An old man in his seventies was sitting under a big tree holding a cattail leaf fan to enjoy the shade.
"Let's go and ask."
Fang Ming led Lao Sha towards the old man. Ling Chuchu on the side hesitated for a moment because she still had two judgments in her mind that she was not sure about.
First, she judged that Fang Ming might have met Lao Sha's daughter-in-law and knew that Lao Sha's daughter-in-law was here, and everything that happened before was just an act.
But there is a big flaw in this judgment, which is why Fang Ming did this. As long as he takes Lao Sha to find Lao Sha's wife, the ginseng will belong to him, and there is no need to bother.
The second judgment is that Fang Ming really found Lao Sha's wife through the trick of seeing flowers in the smoke, but this is too ridiculous. Just throwing a few copper coins can find a missing person, then this
It's not like those fortune tellers on TV.
With doubts in her heart, Ling Chuchu remained silent along the way. She decided to watch Fang Ming's every move carefully, not letting go of any tiny detail, because no matter how cunning a fox is, he will always show his
Fox tail.
"Uncle, let me ask you something. Have you seen this woman?"
Fang Ming stepped forward, pointed out her daughter-in-law in the photo in Lao Sha's hand to the old man, and then said: "She has some inconvenience in her legs and feet and is sitting in a wheelchair?"
"This woman..."
The old man didn't have particularly good eyesight. He stared at the photo for a while, but when Fang Ming mentioned that he was in a wheelchair, his expression changed, "There really is a girl who looks almost the same as the girl in the photo."
Hearing the old man's answer, Lao Sha beside him became excited, and Ling Chuchu's pretty face also had a look of surprise. Only Fang Ming's expression was normal, because this was what he expected.
"Thank you, uncle. Can you tell us where this woman lives here?" Fang Ming continued to ask.
"Go here along the maple forest. There is a small wooden house over there. The woman used to live in the wooden house, but I haven't seen her for a long time. How do you know that woman and what is your relationship with her?"
The old man asked curiously, and Lao Sha on the side couldn't help but answered first: "That's my wife."
"Your wife?"
The old man seemed to have noticed Lao Sha just now and shook his head quickly, "This is impossible."
"How is it impossible? This photo is of me and my wife. Look at the photo I took with my wife while standing behind a wheelchair."
Lao Sha immediately retorted after hearing what the old man said. Yes, the old man was not the first person to say such a thing, but those who said it didn't know that his wife was disabled. They just laughed at how he could marry her based on her appearance.
To such a beautiful wife.
The old man seemed to have thought of something and said nothing more. He just looked at Lao Sha with a strange look, and finally sighed heavily and stopped talking.
"Okay Lao Sha, since I have already told you where your wife is, that's all. Let's go find her."
Fang Ming stopped Lao Sha who wanted to argue with the old man, and after saying thank you to the old man, he walked towards the Maple Leaf Forest.
Just as the old man said, there are several cabins at the end of the maple leaf forest that passes through the park. These cabins are like a paradise under the maple leaf forest, clean and elegant.
"Your wife is quite good at choosing a place to live." Ling Chuchu looked at these cabins with admiration on his face. As the daughter of a wealthy family, he has lived in many luxury villas and hotels, but such a revelation
I have never lived in a small, fresh and pastoral-style house.
"People living in the city yearn for the pastoral life in the countryside, and people living in the countryside yearn for the prosperity of the city. As a certain scholar said, people inside the wall want to go out, and people outside the wall envy the life inside the wall."
It was rare for Fang Ming to formally respond to Ling Chuchu's words, which surprised Ling Chuchu because she didn't expect Fang Ming to pay attention to her.
"Wooden houses, woods, chopping firewood and feeding horses, this is quite in line with the life that literary young women yearn for."
Fang Ming sighed. He sighed because of a piece of news he saw not long ago, saying that a white-collar worker in the city went to the countryside to buy a piece of land, and then built a wooden house there, and went there every weekend.
Went there to stay for a day.
When the news came out, many people in the city envied the female white-collar worker for being able to enjoy a rural life, but when Fang Ming saw the news, he didn't know what to say.
Yes, many people yearn for poetry and distant places, but if these people are allowed to live in the countryside for more than a week, they will not be able to bear it. What's more, the wooden house of this female white-collar worker was built by a master, and the vegetable garden was cultivated by a vegetable farmer.
, all she does is water the vegetable garden.
This is not pastoral life, this is pastoral tourist life.
However, at this moment, Lao Sha didn't listen at all to the conversation between Fang Ming and Ling Chuchu. All his attention was focused on the clothes drying pole in front of a wooden house.
"This is my wife's dress." Lao Sha pointed at the dress and said excitedly.
