Chapter 5326 Confrontation
Since the cattle dealer planned to question him face to face, Xiang Shengnan naturally went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Da Sun and Wang Cuilian were helping to cook. Father Xiang stood aside with a cane and talked to them.
It can be seen that the two women don't like talking to Father Xiang, an old widower, but he lives and breathes in the kitchen, and it is difficult for them to get rid of him.
Xiang Shengnan came over and called Father Xiang away, which was a real relief for them both.
"Finally, he's gone. I'm tired of him. I've never seen such a talkative man."
When they were the only two left in the kitchen, Mrs. Sun couldn't help but exhale. tone.
Wang Cuilian just smiled, "This man is really heartless. He lay on the coffin of Mr. Sheng and refused to let go. He looked like he wanted to go with her."
“But you can say that he is affectionate. Before the first seven arrived, he started chatting and laughing with us women. He is so forgetful that he doesn’t even know what to say about him.”
< br>Da Sun nodded, "I see that Shengnan's father only has so much affection for Shengnan's mother. I think when my mother passed away, my father was seriously ill and couldn't go out for three to five months. So, then For a while, we didn't dare to mention my mother in front of him. When we did, tears burst down our eyes. We were all worried that my father might die, but we got over it."
But even if he got through it, during the holidays and the anniversary of my mother's death, my father would be depressed for several days.
Here, Xiang’s father followed Xiang Shengnan into the east wing, and found that not only the cattle dealer, but also Yang Huazhong, Sun Shi, Xiaoduo, and Luo Baobao were there.
When he came in, all eyes were fixed on him, making him suddenly feel like he had entered a yamen.
"Why are you all staring at me? It makes me hairy all over, hehe..." Father Xiang grinned and joked.
The cattle dealer snorted, "Stretch out your hand!"
"Huh?" Father Xiang was puzzled.
"I told you to stretch out your hands!" the cattle dealer roared again.
This time, Father Xiang understood. He put his hands behind his back and hesitated: "Brother, what do you want to see my hands do? My hands are so dirty. There is nothing to see. "..."
Father Xiang actually refused to show his hand, which made the insiders present even more suspicious.
Yang Huazhong and Sun exchanged secret glances. The cattle dealer's heart sank to the bottom, and the last trace of luck was wiped out.
"Take your hands out!"
Xiang Shengnan suddenly rushed over from behind and grabbed Xiang's father's hand.
Father Xiang was startled and struggled. Then, Father Xiang was pushed by Xiang Shengnan and fell to the ground.
Xiang Shengnan pressed one knee on Xiang’s father’s back to prevent him from getting up, and then pried off his hands. Xiang’s father clenched his hands into fists and refused to let go at all. He shouted: "What are you doing? My son wants to beat me? It's unreasonable..."
Xiang Shengnan didn't care about all this, and only used his strength to beat Xiang's father. fingers.
The cattle dealer also came to help, and others gathered around to watch.
When I opened Father Xiang's hands, I found that one of them was empty, and the other hand was holding a piece of braised pork.
The braised pork is still hot, the kind that is 30% lean and 70% fat, with sauce on it, fragrant and looks very appetizing.
“It’s too dirty to see clearly.” Xiang Shengnan said.
"I'm going to bring a basin of water to wash it." Xiaoduo turned around and brought a basin of water, forced Xiang's hands into the water and washed them clean before taking them out to look at. There is no scar at all on the ten fingers of both hands, whether on the back of the hand, the palm of the hand, or in the gaps between the fingers.
Xiang Shengnan didn't believe it, so he rolled up Xiang's sleeves again and checked his wrists and arms. They were all in good condition, with no sign of damage at all.
Now, not only Xiang Shengnan was confused, but everyone else was confused.
From the time Sheng Nanniang passed away to the present day, it has been five days at most. No matter how fast the wound heals, there will still be some faint scars left.
But there are no scars on Father Xiang’s hands. Could it be that Baby Luo made a mistake in judgment?
As a result, many eyes turned to Luo Baobao almost at the same time.
Baobao Luo also looked confused. She grabbed Father Xiang's hand and looked at it carefully again, and then frowned lightly, as if thinking.
But Father Xiang was already impatient. He was pinned under Xiang Shengnan's knees like a turtle and couldn't get up. The ground was cold and hard, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"What on earth are you doing? Can you let me get up?"
Hearing his accusation, Xiang Shengnan came to his senses and quickly raised his knees.
Yang Huazhong quickly helped Xiang's father up from the ground.
While patting the dust on his body, Father Xiang glared at Xiang Shengnan: "Why are you so crazy, you brat? How could you treat your father like this? If this spreads, your reputation will be ruined. It stinks, do you know that?”
Xiang Shengnan looked at Father Xiang with complicated eyes, and faced Father Xiang’s reprimand, he didn’t say a word to refute.
Seeing that Father Xiang seemed to be unable to stop training him, Xiang Shengnan couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Did you kill my mother?"
Father Xiang The reprimand came to an abrupt end.
The next moment, he suddenly stood up on tiptoes and slapped Xiang Shengnan on the forehead.
"You have eaten too much, you little bastard. How dare you say ridiculous things? Believe it or not, I will beat you to death?" Father Xiang shouted angrily, and his goatee trembled.
"Grandpa Xiang, please don't blame my uncle, because I raised the suspicion about the cause of Grandma Xiang's death, but I did not pin the crime on you. Everyone is just guessing now, and you, The biggest disdain. "
Luo Baobao stood up, took the matter on himself, and negotiated with Xiang's father head-on.
Hearing what the little girl said, Father Xiang was stunned, turned around, and looked at the little girl in front of him in disbelief.
A tiger father has no dog daughter, is he talking about her?
How dare a little girl like her get involved in this kind of thing?
Yang Huazhong and Sun looked at each other. At this time, Yang Huazhong had to speak out.
“Dad Shengnan, although my granddaughter is only a half-year-old child, she is serious about things. Because of her parents, she is educated earlier than other children of the same age and knows more things. ”
“The death of Mr. Sheng, all of us We are all very sad. This child in my family did not mean to offend the deceased, but based on the rope that Sheng and his wife hung on at that time, it was inferred that the child could not speak. If her guess is correct, maybe we can really return the favor to Sheng and his wife. Innocent, so please don’t be angry.”
Mrs. Sun on the side also quickly said: "You and Mr. Sheng have been married for a lifetime, and they must have been deeply in love. Now that Mr. Sheng's death is strange, you don't want her to go away with her injustice, right?"
Father Xiang stared blankly at the people in front of him, and it took him a long time to finally come to his senses.
The corners of his lips turned white, and he asked tremblingly: "Are you...serious? Did someone else kill my mother-in-law?"
