Chapter 853: Seeing the Essence
Wen Jiahong believed in Lianyi. After all, she had put a lot of thought into Wen Zhaoming's matter.
In fact, when she received the news that three members of Mrs. Wen’s family had their carriage overturned and froze to death, she had some guesses in her mind, but she neither told her mother nor the policeman who came to report the news. , especially after the county police concluded the incident as an accidental death.
The two children of Mrs. Wen's family are not living well now. They can only be said to be starving to death, living in a slovenly manner, and have no one to discipline them. After all, they are other people's children. It's not good at all. Whether it's good or bad can only be decided by themselves.
As the future head of Wenjia Village, Wen Jiahong also wanted to do something for the village. Occasionally he would visit Aunt Wen's house. One time he went there at noon, and he heard the twins quarreling.
The reason seems to be that Wen Zhaolian wanted to eat a piece of candy, but Wen Zhaofeng refused to give it, saying that someone else gave it to him, so the two started fighting over it. However, Wen Zhaofeng was not as strong as Zhaolian, and the candy ended up in Zhaolian's. In the mouth.
"Wen Zhaofeng, you have to rely on me to support you in the future. If you get delicious food and drink, you must give it to me first."
"Why? I am also my mother's daughter. Child. "
"You are a boy and cannot support your family. Just like Brother Ming, he is already so old and has to rely on Sister Zhaoyue to keep the house and land at home.
If it weren't for Zhaoyue, the second aunt's house and land would have been ours, and my mother would have planned to ruin Brother Ming's innocence!
So you have to listen to me from now on, otherwise I will marry you off early."
"Wow"
Wen Zhaofeng was young after all, so he was frightened and started crying directly.< br>
But Wen Jiahong, who listened to the conversation between the two outside the door, felt cold in her heart. Apparently Aunt Wen and her husband did not avoid their youngest daughter when they were discussing the matter, so the other party could say such a thing. Then the three Wen family members were in trouble. Such an end should be regarded as retribution.
Wen Jiahong then turned around and left the house of Mrs. Wen's family. She decided that as long as she ensured that the two of them did not starve to death, other matters should be sent to school in the future. Let sir break it over.
Immediately afterwards, spring plowing began. After the rice was planted in the ground, the diligent husband of the village took his half-grown children to pick wild vegetables on the outskirts of Liangshan Mountain.
The cabbages, radishes and potatoes stored in the winter are almost eaten. It’s hard to find green leafy vegetables. Naturally, I can pick as many as I can. When the weather is hot, some wild vegetables will be difficult to eat when they are old. .
As a result, less than three days after picking, a husband in the village discovered an unrecognizable corpse. It had obviously been eaten by wild beasts. The clothes were in ruins and an arm was missing. She has few legs and her face is even more invisible.
The man who went to pick wild vegetables was so frightened that his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
The village chief was also frightened, and immediately summoned the villagers to start nodding heads to see if someone had sneaked into the mountains during the winter, and ended up directly feeding the wild beasts in the mountains.
After ordering a circle of people, all the adults and children in Wenjia Village were there. Even the old man who usually didn't go out much walked out of the room with a cane.
"Mom, I went from house to house and checked. There are many people in our village, except Wen Xiaoxiao. She was not in the house all winter. The house was drafty and accumulated a thick layer of dust. If this body is from another village, we will notify the county police."
Wen Jiahong wiped the sweat from her head and said directly.
"You said Jiahong is not here?"
The village chief seemed to have thought of something and asked again.
"Yes, she only comes back every summer and autumn."
"Go and have a look."
Village Chief Wen took his daughter to the place where the corpse was parked and said to Wen Jiahong:
"Hong'er, go and turn her over, and I'll look at the back of her neck."
Wen Jiahong obviously didn't want to touch the mutilated body that no one could recognize, but She didn't dare to ignore her mother's order, so she could only find two sticks and use her skill to turn the person over.
The head on the opponent's neck was still there, but it had rotted and swollen, giving off a pungent smell, and there was also rotten flesh on the neck. After Village Chief Wen pinched his nose and went forward to check, his pupils shrank and he said directly to his daughter:
"Tell the elders in the village to bury the person! This person is Wen Xiaoxiao."< br>
"What? Mother, are you sure?"
Wen Jiahong said in surprise. She really couldn't see Wen Xiaoxiao's shadow in the pile of white bones and rotten meat on the ground.
"There is a red birthmark on the back of her neck, like a slap mark. I looked carefully just now and there is a smaller half. It must be hers."
Village Chief Wen said with a sigh.
"Why did this scourge go to Liangshan Mountain? She has never participated in an autumn hunt."
Wen Jiahong felt that it was too unlucky.
"I guess I'm trying to trap a rabbit or something. Find someone to make arrangements for the funeral."
Village Chief Wen waved his hand directly.
"Yes, mother."
After the people in Wenjia Village learned that the corpse whose face could not be seen was Wen Xiaoxiao, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then they all felt grateful in their hearts for this disaster. Finally died, which shows how much Wen Xiaoxiao was despised.
After Wen Jiahong arranged Wen Xiaoxiao's funeral, she even made a special trip to Sujiazhuang to tell Wen Zhaoming about the matter. According to his observation, Brother Ming was also quite surprised, just because the other party had beaten him before. His idea, so Brother Ming didn't care at all about this man's death.
Lianyi also asked Hehua after hearing Brother Ming mention it later:
"Why was it discovered so quickly? Wasn't it dumped in the mountains?"
"It is estimated that after the spring, the wild beasts in the mountains came out to look for food, and then there was a fight, and the body was brought out."< br>
Hehua explained calmly.
Lianyi didn’t say much after hearing this. Anyway, Wenjiacun had ended the matter unexpectedly.
Because of these two things combined, Wen Jiahong was sure that Miss Su was really interested in Brother Ming, and would definitely not let these rumors spread all over the world.
"Then you go to Sujiazhuang by yourself tomorrow. First go and see Brother Ming to see what he means, and then try to find out what Miss Su says.
Since I am responsible for this matter, Then we must have a beginning and an end, so that we don’t deceive the children of Wenjia Village and let outsiders see the joke.”
The village chief is a veteran, so he did not immediately get angry after hearing the rumors. , but let her daughter understand the situation first.
"Don't worry, mother, I will go out early tomorrow morning to avoid the people in the village."
Wen Jiahong agreed immediately.
When the sky was gray the next day, she set off with a bamboo basket on her back to meet Brother Ming in Sujiazhuang. She had a ready excuse to bring some food to the brother and sister. After all, the spring planting had just ended, and it was the time when the harvest was slow.
Wen Jiahong met Brother Ming and Yueyue smoothly, and after giving the food to Brother Ming, he went straight to the topic:
"Brother Ming, people in the village have heard some rumors recently. Rumor has it that Miss Su is already in her filial period, but she hasn’t married you yet. I’m afraid your marriage has changed.”
“Huh? Why didn’t I know about my marriage to Brother Ming?” Change?”
