Chapter 201: How could you go the wrong way!

Uncle Guang glanced in the rearview mirror and said, 'Wife, the car will probably have to stop here.'

After all, driving a car like this into the village was really too showy, and it would be difficult not to be noticed.

Wu Shuhui nodded. She was wearing a navy blue cheongsam today, without any patterns or designs, the kind she usually wore when praying to the gods and Buddhas.

It was simple and clean.

Uncle Guang had also changed his clothes, wearing a pair of cloth shoes and a T-shirt.

The two of them dressed like this in order to avoid attracting attention.

There was a row of trees at the entrance to the village, and an abandoned clinic at the gate, which looked a bit desolate.

Uncle Guang parked behind the clinic, making sure that they would not be discovered, before nodding to Wu Shuhui and saying, 'Madam, let's get out of the car.'

'Okay,' Wu Shuhui agreed, pushing open the car door. The two of them walked one behind the other towards the address that Gu Chen had given them.

Ji Pianran's house was not far from the entrance to the village, in the front village, but the Lei family's house was further back in the village, in the back village.

Fortunately, the village was small, and after walking for about ten minutes, the two of them arrived at Lei Bo's house.

At the moment, Lei Bo was chatting with his father about Gu Chen's land contract in the house.

The father and son both hated it when Gu Chen did well, especially Lei Bo.

Since Gu Chen had beaten him up last time, he had hated Gu Chen to the bone.

But there was nothing he could do.

He couldn't stand to see it, but he couldn't get rid of it either.

In the past few days, Gu Chen had successfully contracted land again, and no matter how he thought about it, he got angry.

He always felt that he had to think of something, that he couldn't let Gu Chen get on so easily.

'Dad, what do you think if we also contracted some land?'

Leibo stood leaning against the door of the house, his eyes fixed on his father, who was crouched on the ground smoking.

On hearing this, Lei Guanghui flicked the ash off his cigarette and gave a face of impatience.

'Have you lost your mind? What took you so long? Everyone else has already rented their land, and you want to do the same. It's not like it's a field of onions that will grow back in a couple of days!'

'And besides, if you rent the land, what are you going to plant on it? You're almost thirty years old, and all you can think about is washing powder?'

Lei Guanghui really resents his youngest son.

He's not even half as promising as his older brother!

He can't do anything right, and everything he does is a flop!

Hearing his father's tone, Lei Bo sheepishly shut up.

No, he had to find a chance to give Gu Chen a good scolding.

At worst, he would buy more washing powder, and no matter what he planted, a bag of washing powder for every piece of land, and when he watered it later, it would be ready to grow!

Let him show off!

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a knock at the door.

Hearing someone knock, Lei Guanghui immediately threw the cigarette butt on the ground.

He stamped it out with his foot, then stood up and glared at his son, who was still standing stupidly in the doorway, 'What are you doing, go answer the door.'

After saying that, he walked into the house with his head down.

Lei Bo shrugged his shoulders, his face full of anger.

This is what happens every time someone comes to the house. The person was smoking in the yard one second ago, but as soon as someone arrives, they immediately look at the map and go.

But it's just a village cadre, so what's the big deal?

If you didn't know, you'd think he was a national leader!

Leibo opened the door and glanced outside at Wu Shuhui.

The woman at the door looked to be in her forties.

She had a very nice temperament and very fair skin, but it wasn't as firm as a younger person's.

However, this did not affect her temperament and bearing, which shone through from the core of her being.

Leibo had never seen her before, and had no idea what she was doing there.

He looked at her warily and said, 'Who are you?'

'Hello. The thing is, I heard that you have some high-quality matsutake mushrooms for sale, so I just came to ask if I could buy some.'

Wu Shuhui was extremely nervous as she spoke, and her tightly clenched hands were sweating uncontrollably, her palms wet.

On hearing this, Leibo looked puzzled.

'Matsutake? What's matsutake?'

He had no idea what matsutake was.

He had never heard of it and had never seen it before.

Wu Shuhui became a little anxious as she watched Lei Bo's puzzled expression.

'How is that possible? My friend is in the hospital. He told me that the matsutake he ate was bought from you. It's this big and in very good condition.'

She gestured with her hands.

She had originally planned to use buying matsutake as an excuse to go into his home and take a look at the child.

Unexpectedly, not only did Lei Bo not let her in, he didn't even know what matsutake mushrooms were.

Uncle Guang was hiding at the far end of the room listening, and Wu Shuhui was afraid that Gu Chen would recognise Uncle Guang, so she came to knock on the door alone.

But now, she was also a little at a loss.

Hearing that this was actually the result, Uncle Guang's face was also full of confusion. What on earth was going on?

Leibo looked at Wu Shuhui with an inexplicable tone in his voice.

'No, looking at you like this, you're not from here, right? Who told you that our family sells matsutake mushrooms?'

Which one of you idiots went out and said nonsense? When did my family grow any matsutake mushrooms? Growing vegetables is something poor people do!

Their family doesn't grow any!

What's going on here?

Just as he was wondering, Dong Qingfang, who had been out, returned with her child.

Seeing Lei Bo standing in the doorway talking to a strange woman, she walked over to Wu Shuhui with a curious look on her face, 'Who are you looking for?'

Wu Shuhui looked at the fat Dong Qingfang and the equally chubby child she was holding, and she was completely desperate.

This family was definitely not the people she was looking for.

She forced a smile, her tone full of indescribable despondency, 'I, I may have really gone the wrong way.'

After saying this, Wu Shuhui lowered her head and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Lei Guanghui in the room had been looking at the map for a long time. Seeing that the person was not coming in, he became a little anxious and secretly leaned against the window and looked out.

As he looked, he happened to see Wu Shuhui, who was lowering her head and preparing to leave.

His eyelids jumped at the moment.

My goodness, this person is really good-looking.

Moreover, this is not a villager.

She must have encountered some difficulties and, knowing that he was a village cadre, came here specifically to seek help!

Thinking this, Lei Guanghui quickly straightened his rough clothes and opened the door, stepping outside.

His face fell, and he began to scold Lei Bo, 'What's going on? Why didn't you invite her in?'

Lei Bo looked puzzled, 'Dad, she said she wanted to buy matsutake mushrooms, so she must have taken a wrong turn!'

His family didn't have any matsutake mushrooms.

This person was still a stranger, and it was obvious that she had taken a wrong turn.

Hearing the word matsutake mushrooms, Lei Guanghui's eyelids twitched.

Good stuff.

Matsutake mushrooms?

That stuff is not cheap. Last time I went into the city, my eldest son told me that he had eaten it once after following the leaders up there. It's said to be more expensive than gold!

Lei Guanghui stepped forward in two steps and nodded and smiled at Wu Shuhui. The tone of his voice was so gentle.

'You must have the wrong place, we don't sell matsutake mushrooms here.'

Wu Shuhui couldn't figure out what was going on at the moment, and she just sighed.

'But, but the address is clearly here.'

She really wished she could take out the receipt and show it to Lei Guanghui.

The address really was here. She had repeated it over and over in her mind so many times that she had already memorised it and knew it was correct.
