This was the first time Lin Yang had been treated like this by Cui Lian, and he was momentarily at a loss. This woman was really despicable, she didn't even have the slightest bit of gentleness, no wonder no one dared to marry her.
He thought about how Lin Yang went back to work, but the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He didn't know what Cui Lian's attitude was, but he couldn't directly ask, so he found all sorts of excuses to pass by her house and see her reaction.
This was also the first time that Cui Lian treated him like this, after that she regretted and hated him. How could she dare to scold Lin Yang? It's good now, Lin Yang definitely hated her to death in his heart and never wanted to find her again. Several times when she saw Lin Yang pass by her door, she would hide back in her room in fear, not daring to look at him as she used to.
This aroused Lin Yang's interest. Otherwise, how could he say that men were despicable, and what he could not obtain would be even better.
She told Ye Xuan about what Cui Lian told her. Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said that this matter was a little difficult to deal with. First of all, Second Brother Wang had no other relatives in the village, so if the lady acted rashly, things would get even worse. Second, if Second Brother Wang was killed by someone, they would have to prove it, otherwise, who could prove why Second Brother Wang died?
First of all, it was the matter of releasing the fish, which was originally unscientific. Second Elder Wang's family was not very well-off, and all day long, he had been either looking for people to sell the fish or watching the fish by the lake. Even if he became a man, it would be impossible for him to open the gate and release the fish.
Wang had once had a wife who lived with him for more than ten years, but she never got pregnant. Only after he got sick and left did he become a widower.
As for his current wife, she came from Jiangnan, and as for who she was, Second Brother Wang would laugh whenever they chatted, saying that his family background was not worth mentioning, so no one in the village asked about her. His wife's name was Bai Ling, she was gentle and generous, she also knew how to read and write, and she even cooked well.
After marrying Bai Ling for the first year, Bai Ling's stomach didn't move at all, but Second Brother Wang heard from someone that there was a Taoist temple on the mountain that begged for an autograph, so he took Bai Ling to live in the mountain for a while. The next year, Bai Ling became pregnant, gave birth to a fat son, and died miserably because she was willing to release the fish.
The lady told them all the information she had asked these past few days. The people who heard it all went silent. The children were sent to bed, leaving the six adults to chat and do their work in the yard.
"What do you think about Bai Ling?" It seems to be quite a beautiful woman. It's not necessary for her to be married to Old Wang, is it? " QiuJu was the first to ask, she really didn't understand, that Old Wang looked even older than her father, even if he had money, how could he let a beautiful woman willingly marry him?
"I say you women are superficial," Cheng Yanzhong said as he fixed the shovel. He had used it a little too much in the past few days, "Maybe it's because he has his eyes on Old Second's good character. It's already difficult for a man like him to manage such a large fish pond."
Qiu Ju rolled her eyes at him and stopped talking.
"But Qiuju's question is quite good. Even if it's Elder Wang and Elder Liu, which woman doesn't wish for their husband to be young and strong enough to support their family? Unless this woman had the intention to have Second Brother Wang die earlier. "
Wang Meihua bit off the thread in his hand and spoke with some experience about another matter, saying that when there was a girl in the county who was particularly good-looking, the family would not accept the fact that she had just been married off, and that the girl who was dragged around was big, and it would be even harder to find a better family to find one, so he could only marry her to an old man, who had money and a son who was a few years older than the girl. In the end, the son fell in love with the girl, and with one beat the two of them together, they harmed the old man and took his property away. Who would be willing to find a young and strong old man who would die in the next second?
"Even if she wants to take away her family's property, how is she going to kill Second Brother Wang? How could a weak girl be so heartless? " Cheng Huzhong still didn't understand. In his eyes, women were weak and deserved to be cared for. He had never seen a woman as fierce as her. She even dared to kill her own husband!
"Humph, you are really inexperienced. In this world, there are a lot of harmless people. Don't you know that the more colorful the poison, the more poisonous it is?" Huang Yi wiped his square plate, shaking his head, "Those beautiful women in the rich and powerful families are always fighting with their heads full of blood for small matters. Women aren't the only ones who are weak."
Cheng Huzhong still couldn't believe it. That day in the ancestral hall, Second Elder Wang's wife was crying so much that she was about to faint. How did it look like she was harming someone's life?
"Then if we want to check, where should we start?" The cute girl looked at Ye Xuan. She had a feeling that Ye Xuan would definitely have a way to deal with this.
Ye Xuan was making a mold for his daughter's soap. Hearing her ask him, he asked her, "When we found Second Brother Wang, he had gold in his arms. If it wasn't for that gold, I reckon Second Brother Wang would still be lying in the mud for a long time. So who do you think put that gold in? Was it the murderer? But if the murderer wanted money, who would throw gold at the victim for others to discover? Unless someone else knew the truth of Old Wang's injury and was trying to remind everyone. However, if it was someone from our village, no one would be generous enough to throw some gold to serve as a reminder. "
Why didn't she think of that? Who would throw such a rare piece of gold into the river? It was said that when they discovered Lin Yifeng the other day, the gold did not sink into the mud and just fell into Old Second Wang's arms. How could there be such a coincidence?
If someone really did harm Second Brother Wang on purpose, they would first use superstition to make Second Brother Wang jump in and then use this chaos to push Second Brother Wang into the water. Everyone was busy snatching the fish so they didn't see it.
The lady suddenly came up with a plan. Since the murderer was using superstition to invite the king into the trap, they should also use superstition to make the murderer jump out!
"I know what to do now!" "No one believes that Second Brother Wang was killed right now. Then, why don't we let Second Brother Wang come out and tell everyone that he was killed?"
As he said this, a chilly wind began to blow in the yard. Qiu Ju shivered and suddenly felt a little cold. "It feels creepy to talk about these things in the middle of the night."
"What's there to be afraid of? We won't do anything bad in our lives. We're not afraid of knocking on the door. We're helping Second Brother Wang, and even if he's here, he has to thank us."
Cheng Yanzhong was fine if he didn't say anything, but Wang Plum Blossom also scolded him, "Don't speak nonsense, it's as if you're speaking the truth."
"Then what should we do to make Second Brother Wang speak?" Qiu Ju asked her mother. She was really curious as to how did her mother come up with so many strange methods.
The cute girl looked at Huang Yi and giggled, "If you want to play tricks, don't we have a professional here?"
What do you mean by playing the fool? These are all the handiwork of his ancestors, okay?
"Alright, tell me what you want me to do." Huang Yi lamented the difficulty of his life and was surprised that he managed to get his hands on such a nosy employer.
Tomorrow Huang Yi you go to the county, first go to the Qiao Family Restaurant and find Qiao Ke, then tell her about what she said in her letter. I agree, but if someone comes personally to negotiate, someone wants a tofu house to sell tofu in the county, and a few days ago they came to the village to pick tofu. As a result, they lost their lives in a ditch on the mountain path, so it's better to just give it to them if they can get it out.
Everyone else nodded. Now, the number of people who made tofu in the village had reached its saturation point. It was all the same if there were more of them.
"Then if we don't make tofu, what are we going to sell? The apricots are all gone. "
"We can forget about this for now. Let's first talk about the things we need to do right now. Other than finding Qiao Ke, Huang Yi you still have to go publicize something else. Just treat it as a story telling those porters away. Speak of the matter of Wang Lao Er …"
