leader of Guang Hai's operation.Wei Yi folded his arms and smiled, saying."Chief, our relationship is a legitimate one and we're just getting to know each other. It's also a private matter, so does it...Wen Jiahong actually believes in Lianyi quite a lot, after all, she put a lot of thought into things regarding Wen Zhaoming.
Actually, when she received the news that her mother-in-law and her two children had died in a carriage accident due to freezing temperatures, she had some suspicions in her heart. However, she did not tell her mother nor the officer who delivered the news, especially after the county officers ruled it an accident.
The two children of Mrs. Wen's household are now also living hard lives. They can only say they are not starving to death, but they live in a messy and unkempt manner, and no one disciplines them. After all, they are other people's children, so it's not good to be too harsh or too lenient. Whether they do good or bad, it can only be left to themselves.
As the future village head of Wengjiacun, Wen Jiahong also needed to do something for the village and occasionally visited his grandmother's house. One time, he went there at noon and happened to hear the twins arguing.
The cause seemed to be a piece of candy. Wen Zhaolian wanted to eat it, but Wen Zhaofeng wouldn't give it to her, saying that someone else had given it to him. The two argued over it, but Wen Zhaofeng was no match for Wen Zhaolian's strength, and in the end, the candy ended up in Wen Zhaolian's mouth.
"Wen Zhaofeng, from now on you'll have to rely on me to support you. All the good food and drink, you have to give me first."
"Why I'm your daughter too."
"Why are you a boy You can't head a household and establish yourself like Brother Ming. He's so old and still relies on his sister, Zhao Yue, to keep the house and land."
If it weren't for Zhao Yue, Second Aunt's house and land would have been ours long ago. We wouldn't need Mother to scheme and ruin Ming Ge'er's reputation!
So from now on, you have to listen to me, or I'll marry you off early.
"Wow!"
Wen Zhaofeng was young after all and was frightened, starting to cry directly.
But Wen Jiahong, who had overheard the two people's conversation outside the door, felt a chill in her heart. Apparently, when Mrs. Wen and her husband discussed matters, they did not avoid their youngest daughter, so the other party was able to say such things. The fact that the three members of the Wen family ended up in such a situation should be considered retribution.
Then, Wen Jiahong turned and left Wen Dalian's house. She decided that from now on, she would only make sure the two of them wouldn't starve to death. As for other things, she would wait until later, when they were old enough to be sent to school and have a teacher mold them.
Then came the time for spring planting. After all the rice seedlings were planted, the hardworking young men from the village, accompanied by half-grown boys, would go to the outskirts of Liangshan to forage for wild vegetables.
All the stored cabbage, carrots, and potatoes from winter have been eaten. Finally seeing some leafy green vegetables, we naturally picked as many as we could. Once the weather gets hot, some wild vegetables become difficult to eat once they get old.
The result had only been harvested for less than three days when a man from the village discovered a mutilated corpse. It was clearly ravaged by wild beasts, with its clothes torn to shreds and limbs missing. Its face was unrecognizable.
Seeing this, the young man who had gone to pick wild vegetables was so frightened that he let out a cry of "Ouch!" His legs went weak and he collapsed onto the ground. Then, he scrambled to his feet and ran to report to the village headman.
The village head was also terrified and immediately called a meeting of the villagers to take a headcount, trying to figure out if anyone had snuck into the mountains during the winter and become food for the wild beasts.
After rounding up everyone in the village, old and young from Wenzai Village were all gathered. Even the elderly who rarely left their homes came out, leaning on their canes and shuffling slowly to join the crowd.
“Mother, I’ve looked at every house. There are no missing people in our village except for Wen Xiaoxiao. She hasn’t been in her house all winter. The house is drafty and covered in a thick layer of dust. If this body was from outside the village, we would have to notify the county sheriff.”
Wen Jiahong wiped the sweat from his forehead and said directly.
"Don't you say that family influence isn't a factor"
The village head seemed to have thought of something and asked another question.
"Yes, she only comes back during the summer and autumn."
Go and take a look.
The village chief, accompanied by his daughter, went back to the place where the body was laid. He addressed Wen Jiahong:
"Hong'er, go turn the person over, I want to see the back of her neck."
Wen Jiahong clearly didn't want to touch the mutilated corpse that was unrecognizable, but she dared not disobey her own mother's orders. She could only find two sticks and, with some ingenuity, flipped the body over.
The head on the opponent's neck was still there, but it had rotted and swollen, emitting a sickening stench. The flesh on the neck was also rotting.
The village chief pinched his nose and stepped forward to take a look. His pupils shrank, and he immediately said to his daughter:
"Tell the village elder to bury him! This man is Wen Xiaoxiao."
"What Mother, are you sure"
Wén Jiāhóng exclaimed in surprise, "I truly can't see a trace of Wén Xiǎoxiǎo in this pile of bones and decaying flesh on the ground."
She has a red birthmark on the back of her neck, like a handprint. I took a closer look just now, and it's half there. It must be hers.
The village head sighed and said.
"This troublemaker, how did he end up on Liangshan He never participated in a single autumn hunt."
Win Hong thinks it's too unlucky.
"He probably wants to get a rabbit or something. You find someone to take care of the arrangements."
The village head waved his hand directly.
"Yes, Mother."
When the people of the isothermal village learned that the unidentified corpse was Wen Xiaoxiao, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They immediately felt fortunate that this scourge had finally died, which showed how much Wen Xiaoxiao was reviled.
After Wen Jiahong arranged Wen Xiaoxiao's funeral, he specially went to Sujiazhuang and told Wen Zhaoming about it. According to his observation, Mingge was also quite surprised. Because the other party had once tried to make a move on him, Mingge didn't take this person's death to heart at all.
The ripples, I only heard about them later when Mingge mentioned them, so I asked the lotus flower:
"How could I have been discovered so quickly Wasn't I thrown into the mountains"
“It’s probably that wild beasts in the mountains came out to forage after spring, and then there was a fight, which is why the bodies were brought out.”
The lotus explained calmly.
Ripple didn't say much either, after all, the village of Wenjia had already ended this matter unexpectedly.
Also because of these two things together, Wen Jiahong was certain that Miss Su truly had feelings for Mingge'er and would definitely not allow these rumors to spread everywhere.
"Then you should go to Sujiatang yourself tomorrow. First, meet with Brother Ming and see what he thinks. Then, try to find out what Miss Su says."
Since I've taken on this matter, I have to see it through to the end. Don't let us down our children from Wenjia Village and make outsiders laugh at us.
The village head was a seasoned veteran, so upon hearing the rumors, he didn't immediately lash out. Instead, he first sent his daughter to investigate the situation.
"Mother, rest assured. I will leave early tomorrow morning and avoid the villagers on my way out."
Wen Jiahong immediately agreed.
The next day, when the sky was overcast, she set off with a bamboo basket on her back to visit Ming's house in Sujiazhuang. Her excuse was ready-made: she was bringing some food for her brother and sister, as spring planting had just ended and it was a time of scarcity.
Wen Jia Hong successfully met Ming Ge'er and Yue Yue. After giving the food to Ming Ge'er, he went straight to the point:
"Ming'er, recently people in the village have been hearing rumors that Miss Su has finished her filial period but hasn't married you yet. I'm afraid there might be something wrong with your marriage."
"Huh I don't know how things have changed with my marriage to Ming'er." but I can't guarantee you'll succeed. If you fail, you won't even have backup."And even if you succeed, you've only completed half the task. No one will take you out of the Fantasy Beast space. How w...
