Chapter 417: Where is the cow?
Only after seeing the village chief off did Ye Zhiyu breathe a sigh of relief.
"Are you and...Qin Zhiyu really an engaged couple?" Cheng Yu was curious. It was only after she came here that she found out that Ye Zhiyu really had a fiancé.
This is the child foster husband mentioned by Ye Zhiyu.
Ye Zhiyu frowned and shook his head, "No, what the parents say doesn't count."
In the past, Qin Zhiyu and Ye Zhiyu didn't take this joke to heart, and now, Qin Zhiyu and Ye Zhiyu naturally won't take it to heart either.
Cheng Yu curled his lips, a little disappointed.
She thought she would know some gossip about the famous Master Ye!
Ye Zhiyu glanced at Cheng Yu, turned over and lay on the bed.
"Go to bed early. We have things to do tomorrow."
The mainland was a bit backward in the 90s, and there were very few things to play with, so Cheng Yu and Ye Zhiyu fell asleep early.
The next morning, before five o'clock, there was a knock on the room where Ye Zhiyu and Cheng Yu lived.
"Zhiyu girl! Zhiyu girl!"
Ye Zhiyu, who was lying on the bed dreaming, suddenly opened her eyes. Then, she sighed deeply, rubbed her messy hair and went to open the door, yawning as she spoke, "What's wrong?"
The village chief and his men were standing at the door of Ye Zhiyu's room. When they saw her open the door, the aunt behind him immediately jumped up to grab Ye Zhiyu.
Ye Zhiyu was shocked.
If she hadn't dodged quickly, she would have been pulled off balance.
The village chief was also frightened by her actions and scolded her, "The child just woke up, what are you doing?"
The aunt was embarrassed by what the village chief said. She argued, "Uncle Tian, how can I not be anxious when such a big cow is lost?"
After the aunt finished speaking, the village chief looked apologetic towards Ye Zhiyu.
"Your Aunt Wang's cow was lost and stolen. I thought you can tell fortunes, right? Can you tell Aunt Wang where the cow is?" The village chief looked at Aunt Wang and said, "It's not in vain. Let your aunt give you five dollars, okay?"
Cheng Yu, who was woken up, walked over yawning. After hearing what the village chief said, he couldn't help teasing Ye Zhiyu.
"You charge 100 yuan for a fortune telling in Hong Kong, why do you get such a big discount in mainland China?"
Cheng Yu's voice reached the ears of everyone present, making the village chief's face flush. He really didn't know that Ye Zhiyu made so much money in Hong Kong.
Aunt Wang was a little anxious. She didn't want to spend so much money to find out the whereabouts of the cow, but she couldn't bear to let the cow go if it was lost.
It was Ye Zhiyu who spoke up to save the situation, "We are all from the same village, and the village chief has spoken, so five dollars is five dollars."
After Ye Zhiyu said this, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief.
He secretly thought that Ye Zhiyu was a smart kid.
"I'm going to wash up. Please wait for a moment, village chief and auntie."
"No rush, no rush!"
Seeing that Aunt Wang wanted Ye Zhiyu not to go wash up and go find a cow for her directly, the village chief quickly spoke up and said there was no rush.
When Ye Zhiyu went to wash up, the village chief scolded Ye Zhiyu, "You took it seriously when they said that? I saved you so much money, you should remember the favor in your heart and don't take advantage of me."
Aunt Wang looked unhappy after being scolded by the village chief, but she couldn't say much.
It only takes a few minutes to wash up, how could she not wait?
Ye Zhiyu did not delay and got herself ready in just a few minutes. Then she followed the village chief and Aunt Wang out of the hotel.
As for Cheng Yu, since it was still early, Ye Zhiyu didn't let him follow.
Sitting on the village chief's donkey cart, Ye Zhiyu asked Aunt Wang, "Aunt, did you hear anything last night?"
"Oh! Your Uncle Wang is snoring so loudly when he's sleeping, how can he hear any noise outside?" There was a hint of resentment in Aunt Wang's voice when she said this.
Now, the cow is lost, and she will find fault with whoever she can.
Ye Zhiyu didn't take it to heart.
She didn't hear any sound outside, so she didn't know when the cow was lost. She looked at Aunt Wang's face again and said to the village chief, "Village chief, please go to the east road. We'll go over there and take a look."
Aunt Wang doesn't have the face of someone who would lose money, so the cow must have run away on its own.
Even if Aunt Wang didn't come to her for fortune-telling or to look for the cow, Aunt Wang's cow would not be lost. Someone would see it and send it back to her.
"Is my cow over there?" Aunt Wang's face suddenly showed a fierce look, "Let me know who stole the cow, and I will let him know the consequences of stealing my cow!"
Ye Zhiyu was helpless, "Aunt, your cow went out by itself."
Hearing this, Aunt Wang didn't believe it.
"The gate to my yard was open. Before I went to bed last night, I checked to see if it was closed. How could it have escaped by itself?"
Aunt Wang remembered it very clearly. Before going to bed last night, she went to see the gate of the courtyard on purpose.
Ye Zhiyu didn't argue with her, but just asked her, "Someone came to see Uncle Wang later, right?"
After Ye Zhiyu reminded her, Aunt Wang finally remembered that this was the case.
Aunt Wang: “…”
While the two were talking, the village chief who was driving the cart saw someone's cow eating someone's land not far away. He turned around and asked Aunt Wang, "Look, is that your cow?"
When Aunt Wang heard the village chief mention cows, she turned around immediately.
As soon as she saw the cow, she was sure, "Yes, yes, it's my cow!"
The village chief hurriedly drove the cart to the vicinity of the cows, and then Aunt Wang went to drive the cows home.
"Do you know whose land that is? Remember to apologize to them and pay some money." The village chief instructed Aunt Wang.
The villagers depend on this piece of land for their livelihood all year round. Her cows have taken a lot of damage from other people's land, so of course she has to pay compensation.
Aunt Wang did not refuse, "Of course, of course."
Now that the cow is found, everything will be easy.
Aunt Wang, who had a face full of flesh just now, now looks kind and gentle.
"It seems that Zhiyu girl was right. It ran away by itself." If it was stolen, how could it be found in someone else's field?
Aunt Wang gave the money for calculating the whereabouts of the person to Ye Zhiyu.
"My family is not well off, so I can't give you a hundred dollars. Don't be disgusted by the ten dollars. I'll use the five dollars to buy you candy."
Ye Zhiyu accepted the money without hesitation, "Thank you, auntie!"
After the cow was found, the village chief sent Aunt Wang back to the village first, and then sent Ye Zhiyu back to the town.
It was a good idea, but when he arrived in the village, everyone in the village heard that Ye Zhiyu was very accurate in fortune-telling, and they all asked Ye Zhiyu to tell their fortunes.
It was the village chief who scared them away by offering a hundred yuan for each divination.
"Other people's children come to help build roads and schools, don't be ungrateful!"
The village chief scolded them.
The villagers did not dare to offend the village chief, so they had to obey and stop begging Ye Zhiyu.
Ye Zhiyu, who was standing behind the village chief, also breathed a sigh of relief.
The aunt who runs the convenience store made the final decision, "One hundred yuan is one hundred yuan!"
Ye Zhiyu never expected that there were people in the village willing to spend a hundred yuan on fortune-telling!
"Girl Zhiyu, can you tell me what is the best place for me to send Xiaozhi to study?"
