The world is a bitter sea, and people struggle within it.
Is genuine sincerity always belittled? Are kindness and gentleness always bullied? Are ugly commoners always mocked? Is unparalleled ...
Chapter 121 Phoenix Man Husband vs. Tragic Original Wife (4)
"What his aunt said is human!" Granny Qi grabbed her hand, looking extremely excited.
"What's wrong? Only your family can do it, and no one else can say it." The second uncle who came with Qi Jiacheng rolled his eyes at the two of them, not very happy, "You are so old, and you are still so harsh to the young generation."
"Second uncle, I feel so bitter." Granny Qi collapsed on the ground with a sob.
"Mom, don't be sad first. I don't know where Zhao Shiyi went to fool around today. If the baby is gone, we can still get pregnant again, but it's not right to not figure this out." Qi Jiacheng helped his mother up with hatred in his eyes.
He regretted that he didn't kill Zhao Shiyi, the unlucky woman, completely in the lotus field, causing him to worry now.
"Why are you talking so unpleasantly, kid? She's your wife." Aunt Wu looked at Qi Jiacheng hesitantly, "There's been rumors in the village that you and the widow Chen Jiao have been flirting with each other and planning to drive away the Zhao family girl. Now I think there is some evidence of this."
"Aunt Wu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!" Qi Jiacheng was exposed and immediately became angry and his face turned red.
"You know it in your heart." Aunt Wu was not happy to see her son involved in this matter. Seeing Qi Jiacheng's intense reaction, she had some guesses in her heart.
If the people of the Qi family blamed her son, she would not let him go and had a lot to say.
"You all be quiet." Wu Lian shouted, "Grandma Wen is treating the patient and she will wake up soon."
Before Qi Jiacheng could say anything to frame Wu Lian, he heard the news that Zhao Shiyi was about to wake up. He was panicked and confused, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead like soybeans.
He wiped and wiped, wiped and wiped, and then he said loudly: "Wu Lian, where did you find my wife?"
He originally wanted to use this as an excuse to gradually lead Wu Lian to the "murderer", but Aunt Wu, who had been vigilant against him, asked him back, "Don't ask where your wife was found first. I want to ask where you went today after disappearing for a day, and the widow Chen Jiao was not at home today!"
"Auntie, what right do you have to question me!" Qi Jiacheng, who was guilty, had a very bad attitude.
Grandma Qi, who was standing next to him, also noticed her son's panic and hurried out to smooth things over, "Don't you love to go to the haystack at the village head to bask in the sun on weekdays? Didn't you go there today?"
"Yes, yes, yes, my mother really knows me." Seeing his mother helping him, Qi Jiacheng immediately felt confident.
"I went to the lotus field today and found your wife on the high ground." Wu Lian did not hide anything. "I brought your wife back because she was still alive. The widow Chen Jiao was lying next to your wife, and she was already dead."
The small boats in this village can only carry two people.
"Is the widow Chen Jiao dead?" Everyone standing outside the door, except Qi Jiacheng, was in disbelief.
"My son, are you telling the truth?" Grandma Qi asked again.
When her son disappeared, she probably guessed a little. Now her wife has a miscarriage and Chen Jiao is dead. No matter how you look at it, it is related to her son.
"I only want to bring Zhao Shiyi back and cure him first. Someone has to be sent to collect Chen Jiao's body." Wu Lian was also very sad when he said it. "Damn it, the murdered Chen Jiao will definitely not let her killer go."
Wu Lian looked upright, and what he said was completely in line with common sense. It was impossible to associate him with a murderer.
Besides, Wu Lian has a promising future. There are so many girls in the village who are willing to pay for him. He doesn't need to harm pregnant women and a woman who has been widowed for many years.
The more Qi Jiacheng thought about it, the more he felt that his previous plan was unreasonable, but now he could only bite the bullet and pass the blame: "Why, brother Wu, so many people went to the lotus field and nothing happened, but when you went, my wife lost half her life and Chen Jiao also died."
"That's right." Grandma Qi immediately came out to support her son, "I think my wife's murder has something to do with you."
They are the only child in the Qi family. They have been spoiled and loved since childhood, which led to his incompetence. Now they can't give up in this situation.
"What are you arguing about!" Second Uncle yelled at Grandma Qi, "You in the Qi family think that Wu Wazi harmed your daughter-in-law. Your daughter-in-law is about to wake up. When she wakes up, she won't know everything."
Normally, the two old people in the Qi family couldn't stand Wu Lian because he was sensible and ambitious. Now he wants to talk nonsense in front of so many people. As an elder, he has to say a few fair words.
"Second Uncle is fair." Wu Lian certainly knew that the Qi family wanted to wrongly accuse him. He was naturally grateful that someone spoke for him, "Just wait for your daughter-in-law to wake up and point it out. This lotus field is in our village, and it must be related to the people in our village."
"Why do you say that it must be someone in our village who did it? What if the widow had an affair with someone from another village?" Qi Jiacheng was quite unconvinced.
"How do you know that Chen Jiao was having an affair with someone?" Aunt Wu looked at him with interest. "I'm afraid you were the one who killed Chen Jiao, and your wife was caught in your affair and was killed by you."
It must be said that the old lady is still the most experienced. Aunt Wu has already guessed most of the truth.
"His mother, don't talk nonsense here without evidence!" Grandma Qi was a person who protected her son. Seeing this basin of "dirty water" being poured on her son, she couldn't bear it immediately, "Why don't you say that it was your son who killed him? After all, among so many villagers, he was the only one who found the injured and the dead."
"Humph, you Qi family members have never been kind. In the past, it was the mother who was not kind, and now it is the son who is not kind." Aunt Wu snorted coldly, twisted her body, and said to her child: "Son, we have no guilt in doing good things. Some people killed the widow. This widow is full of resentment and will definitely come to claim her life at night."
"Who are you cursing at, you are so weird." Grandma Qi pulled her old man's hand away and prepared to fight.
"I can't afford to offend, but I can't hide." Aunt Wu stepped back and avoided a safe distance, "As for who I am talking about, everyone knows it in their hearts."
Qi Jiacheng thought of the big eyes that Chen Jiao stared at him before she died, and he was scared and grabbed his father's arm.
"You look so yellow, what's wrong?" Eunuch Qi originally wanted to ask if his son had heatstroke, but the atmosphere became strange as soon as he said this.
"Some people are really starting to feel guilty." Aunt Wu took a few steps back and said, "I won't stand with a murderer."
Her son was raised as a treasure. If someone wants to wrongly accuse her son, they should first consider whether they can win over her.
