Chapter 916 Is there any hope?
Seeing Wei Gang urging him, Song Wen quickly ate the cucumber he hadn't finished yet, and said, "Let's go!"
The two walked forward quickly.
But when they were about to reach a forest, Wei Gang spotted an old farmer sitting there, looking in the direction they were coming from.
Wei Gang said to Song Wen, "Uncle is sitting over there, let's go say hello."
"Let me see." Song Wen put his hands on the pergola and looked carefully in the direction Wei Gang pointed, then he couldn't help but feel happy. "Let's go and say hello and ask the questions I thought of before."
"What are you waiting for? Let's go!" After hearing what Song Wen said, Wei Gang raised his foot and walked towards the direction where the uncle was.
Su Yunyun, who was far away in the capital, had something to discuss with Zhong Cheng, so she took advantage of the lunch break to come to the courtyard next door, and heard Zhong Cheng and Yuan Zhan say, "I wonder what Song Wen and Wei Gang found."
"How can we know now?" Yuan Zhan was also anxious, but he told the truth, "But according to the plan when they left, they should have visited the village by now."
"I hope the two of you can make some good discoveries," Zhong Cheng said with high hopes, "otherwise this will be a bit passive."
"I'm worried that the people in that village are tied to each other and are unwilling to say or reveal anything. Then Song Wen and Wei Gang might make a wasted trip!" Yuan Zhan expressed his concerns.
"What you said is possible," Manager Zhong sighed, "but success depends on man, and fate proposes. If you don't go and see, no one knows what the result will be."
"Well, I hope you two can be flexible and not just focus on that village," Yuan Zhan thought of the four words "flexible and adaptable". "If the road in the village is blocked, we can change our thinking and start from the surrounding villages. Then we don't have to worry about not finding a point of entry."
"I hope the two of you can do as you said!" Manager Zhong felt that what Yuan Zhan said made sense.
"Don't worry, we have all carried out many missions and we know that if this road is blocked, we should try another one."
Yuan Zhan thought of their previous identities and felt that what he had just said, hoping that the two of them would be flexible, was nonsense!
When Su Yunyun heard what they said, she realized that Song Wen and Wei Gang had gone deep into the village to find out the truth of the matter!
She walked to the main room and said, "Wait for Song Wen and Wei Gang to come back and inform me as soon as possible. I also want to know what the first-hand information they have is."
"Okay, I've got that down!" Manager Zhong nodded to show that he understood.
The scene switched back to the forest, and Wei Gang's voice rang out, "Uncle, why are you still here?"
The old farmer heard the voice first, and then saw Wei Gang and Song Wen walking quickly, "I'm waiting for you!"
"Waiting for us?" Wei Gang and Song Wen looked at each other, "Uncle, why are you waiting for us in the middle of the day?"
"What do you mean by noon? It's already past lunchtime, it's already afternoon," the uncle looked at them, "I knew that you young people would forget the time when you get busy."
Wei Gang and Song Wen laughed awkwardly when they heard this, "We just wanted to finish the work as soon as possible!"
"If you want to finish your work early, you should also take care of your health. You can't work on an empty stomach. You know, if you work on an empty stomach, your work will look weak," the old farmer said. "But if you work after eating a full stomach, your work will look good."
"Haha, uncle, what you said makes sense!" Wei Gang flattered the old farmer.
"So come back with me, go to my house and have lunch first, and then go to work!" The old farmer said suddenly, surprising Song Wen and Wei Gang.
"Uncle, how can I go to your house for dinner?"
"That's right, uncle, we've already eaten, no need to spend money!"
The uncle was a little angry when he heard the two people's refusal. "Although my family has simple meals, which are not as delicious and oily as the meals in your city, they are clean. And my wife has been cooking for her whole life, so the taste is no worse than the restaurants in your city."
"Uncle, you misunderstood!" Wei Gang saw this and quickly explained, "We ate fried cakes and cucumbers on the way back, so we're not hungry at all now."
"Really, uncle, we really have eaten," Song Wen also quickly joined in, "and we are not the kind of people who lie. We are obviously hungry but insist that we are not hungry. We are telling the truth."
"Really? You didn't lie to me?" The old farmer's suspicious look made Wei Gang and Song Wen laugh.
"Why would I lie to you? We really ate it!"
"If we still go to your house to eat the food cooked by your aunt, it would mean that we are being dishonest and wasteful!"
Seeing that the two insisted, the old farmer stopped trying to persuade them. "Well, since you have already eaten, I will go back later and ask the old woman not to continue cooking, because I told her that I will start cooking for you two after I take you home."
When the two heard it, they said, "Thank you, uncle, you are so nice!"
The uncle waved his hands and said, "You are all young people, and you don't think about many things properly. We old guys are relying on our age and want to consider more for you."
"Your village is so lucky to have someone like you!" Song Wen said sincerely.
"Oh!" The old farmer didn't care. "We all think so. If you say so, then we are all blessed?"
"That's for sure!" Wei Gang said as a matter of course, "People who are blessed are usually contagious, and the people around them will become better and better, and then more and more blessed. From you, uncle, I can see that everyone in your village should be kind to others, so naturally they are all blessed!"
"Okay, just because of what you said, the people in our village will be blessed!" The old farmer smiled happily because of the praise.
After talking to the two for a while, the old farmer said, "I have to go back first. You two just follow this road and turn when it's time to turn, and you can get back to the county town."
"Uncle, please wait a moment. I have another question." Seeing the old farmer getting up to go home, Song Wen quickly stopped him. "We went to the remote peanut field and saw the peanuts grown in Jiazhuang. They were obviously malnourished. Compared with the peanuts in other surrounding villages, there was a world of difference. They simply cannot be compared."
When the old farmer heard Song Wen's words, he nodded repeatedly, "That's right! The people in our village who went to weed saw it and said the same thing!"
"We feel sad when we see those peanuts competing with weeds for nutrients," Song Wen said. "So I want to ask you, can the peanut field in Jiazhuang be saved?"
