Chapter 80 Chapter 80 Soon Jiang Hongguo was praised as a lucky star and was...

Everyone at the mine received amethyst today and they were all very happy.

He chose the small one himself. Hongguo asked Changzong to choose one, and he chose one each for Lao Zheng and Yushan.

Several family members who were not at the mine today heard that they could get purple crystals, so they brought vegetables they grew themselves to give to Hongguo. When they went back, their baskets were filled with crystals. They were very happy. Soon, Jiang Hongguo was praised as a lucky star and was taken out to spread the word.

When Hongguo heard that Du Huixiang had run away, she asked around and learned that her husband had been chased by wild dogs and fell into a mine and had gone to the hospital.

The leader's wife is still at the mine. She was invited by her family and cannot be left alone. Hongguo asked Changzong to send her back, and the amethyst was not given to the leader's wife.

Hong Guo also found an excuse: "You see there are so many people here today. If I give you the purple crystal, it would be suspected of bribery."

The leader's wife twitched her lips and got into the car without saying a word.

After seeing off his leader's wife, Changzong went back to the mine to pick up Hongguo. Hongguo had just finished her work, and when they got home, Yushan came back a step ahead to help move down the purple crystals that had not been picked up, as well as the fruits and vegetables sent by the fellow villagers.

There was a basket of green and red tomatoes in the vegetables. Yu Shan took one, washed it at the well, and put it in his mouth. He took a bite and it was sweet and juicy. He said, "This tomato is good. Let's plant a few in the yard."

Now is not the season to plant tomatoes. If you want to wait until the next harvest season, you can only wait until next year. His unintentional words show that he is really planning to settle down permanently, right?

Hongguo picked up a few and saved them for cooking in the evening. She gave the rest to Yushan, then asked with a smile, "Du Huixiang, the man fell into the mine. Was it you who caused it?"

Yu Shan smiled, "I said we should just pay blood debt with blood and let the gunpowder explode in his mine. Gu Changzong said you wouldn't agree and said human life is the most precious. When did he become so fussy?"

Hong Guo immediately took the biggest tomato and handed it to Chang Zong: "Do you want to eat it?"

Eat it, this is a reward. Gu Changzong took it and said to Yu Shan: "Human life is always the most important. Don't do anything reckless. Once you get involved in someone's life, you won't be able to save him even if you want to."

Yu Shan held his breath for a few seconds and said, "He abused dogs. I just wanted to let the few that hadn't been abused to death take revenge. I took a look and found that they wouldn't die. Compared to his evil deeds, their punishments were too light."

Gu Changzong said: "The new leadership is fighting corruption, he can't get away, don't worry about it from now on."

Yu Shan nodded and washed another big red tomato. Wei Liang was just asking him to choose a place to be supervised, so he decided to come here.

Old Zheng took the half basket of tomatoes back from Yu Shan and said, "Dian Dian also likes to eat this, save it for him."

Yu Shan was not convinced: "How old is he? How many can he eat?"

Lao Zheng was proud: "He finished this in one meal."

He doesn't just eat small things, he eats everything.

In the evening, the family had dinner early. Gu Changzong, Lao Zheng and Yu Shan went to the mine again and said that there were some hidden dangers that needed to be eliminated and reinforced.

Hongguo was running water for Diandian to take a bath when the phone in the room rang. Hongguo muttered, "Why is it calling at this time?"

Diandian was playing in the big bathtub. When she looked up, she knew what her mother was worried about and assured her, "Mom, fish grow up in water. Go answer the phone. I'll play with the fish by myself."

Hongguo thought so too, and it seemed that she wouldn't have to worry about him playing in the water alone in the future.

She took a towel and put it aside for Diandian, and said, "Wipe yourself and get dressed after you're done soaking. Mom will go to bed after she answers the phone."

The little one nodded quickly and threw the towel aside. For him, how could playing with water be enough? He could play until bedtime.

Hongguo went back to the room and answered the phone. It was Du Huixiang on the other end of the line, who had become impatient after waiting for so long.

Hongguo was not surprised that she called, but what she said made Hongguo very annoyed.

This time, the furious Du Huixiang directly asked Jiang Hongguo questions that she could not answer.

"How did you and Gu Changzong defeat my sister and brother-in-law? Their affairs are related to you, I know! And my husband broke his legs, arms and ribs today, the injuries are so serious, it can't be separated from you. I didn't expect that you look weak and gentle, how could you be so vicious when doing things?"

Du Huixiang suspected that it was Hongguo who did it, which indirectly admitted that the explosives in the mine were related to her. She was the first to harm others and now she is reaping the consequences, but she is blaming others?

Hong Guo really wanted to follow the phone line, rush over and beat her up, and ask her, they planned to bury explosives, wanting to kill Chang Zong, cause an accident in the mine, and ruin Hong Guo's family, and the price was to implicate so many miners, wasn't this cruel?

But Hongguo held back. If she asked like this, she would still be fooled. The best way was to ignore this mad dog.

Before hanging up, Hong Guo threw a few words at her: "I'm so unlucky to be entangled by you. Don't you think that my Chang Zong is such a powerful person. He has established a foothold here in just a few months. If he used his means to retaliate against you, would you still be able to call me now?"

Hongguo hung up the phone, then wrote down the phone number and planned to check it tomorrow to see where Du Huixiang was calling from.

…

Du Huixiang also hung up the phone. She was at her eldest sister's house. She was not her biological sister, but an adopted sister.

In fact, this small circle of people strengthened their unity and stability by adopting godchildren. She was the sixth child, and they were not born according to the order, but if one was missing, one would be filled. She had always wondered how come the previous sixth child died soon after being kicked out?

The other sisters can be replaced, but one, two, and three have never changed, especially the eldest sister. She has been a widow for many years and has no man to support her, but she can actually order the others around.

Du Huixiang pointed at the hung up phone and said more firmly, "Big sister, you heard it. Jiang Hongguo is very tight-lipped and can't get any information from her. But I can feel that the matter between my sister and my man is definitely related to her family. You have to believe me."

Sister Xiao is a steady and thoughtful person. Combining what Jiang Hongguo said on the phone, the information she has, and her impression of dealing with Gu Changzong, she still believes in Jiang Hongguo.

Among the sisters under her, the steady ones are not smart enough, and the smart ones are not rational enough. Du Huixiang is really a good seedling, but she is too confident.

Sister Xiao advised earnestly, "She's right. If they really do it, your man won't just be lying in bed for a few months. You planted explosives in his mine. If they knew it was your man who arranged it, wouldn't they retaliate by planting one in your mine as well? Your man was chased by a few wild dogs and fell into the mine. It was purely an accident. When he recovers, tell him not to kill all the cats and dogs. It's a sin to hurt his virtue."

Du Huixiang's man is good in every way, except that every time he is scolded by his own mother, he treats cats and dogs as his own mother and vents the evil in his heart, only then will he calm down.

She knew this was not a good thing, but she couldn't kill his own mother, right?

And today, the mine of Gu Changzong's family had been planned for several months to arrange the explosives, and it was flawless. Even if Gu Changzong was lucky enough not to die, after such a big accident in the mine, he would be kicked out in disgrace.

But there was nothing wrong with the mine, and they even found amethyst mine. However, her husband was lying in the hospital now, so she had to get to the bottom of it.

Du Huixiang knelt down beside Sister Xiao's legs and begged, "Sister, my loyalty to you is obvious to all. Even my own sister can't compare to me. At this time, you should stand up for me. I know you have a powerful backer. Please help me find out who Gu Changzong's backer is. I don't need you to do anything after you find out. I will do it myself."

Du Huixiang has her own selfish motives. As long as she knows the level of Jiang Hongguo and Gu Changzong's backers, she will know how big the secrets of these two people are.

Sister Xiao was annoyed. She had asked everyone with her connections, but even her connections could not be found. Jiang Hongguo and Gu Changzong either had no connections and were always lucky, or their backers were so powerful that they could not be found. A smart person would not go against these two people. How could Du Huixiang not understand this relationship?

And her connections shouldn't be used in this way. To be realistic, Du Huixiang now is not worth her using her connections to help her.

Sister Xiao told her not to think too much and go back to have a good rest. She said, "Your man is injured like this, you should take good care of him in the hospital. I will arrange for someone to take over the mine affairs and return it to you when he recovers."

Du Huixiang understood what she heard. This meant that they were not going to help her and were going to abandon her. If she was useful, they would be sisters, but if she was useless, then everything she had worked hard for would be taken away?

Du Huixiang said angrily, "Sister, my own sister has ended up being out of contact, and now I have to blame myself for my bad luck. Do you think I am worthless and want to abandon me? You are too quick to kill me!"

Sister Xiao did not allow anyone to challenge her authority. She slapped Du Huixiang hard and drove her away.

"Go to the hospital and take care of your man. Ask him if he dares to threaten me like this?"

Du Huixiang covered her face and gritted her teeth in silence. She secretly hated the old widow in her heart. If her sister and brother-in-law were still alive, would she dare to beat her?

After Du Huixiang left, someone made a phone call and told the person on the other end that Du Huixiang had pissed off the eldest sister, so there was no need to be cautious and she could start taking action.

…

Du Huixiang went to the hospital with a feeling of unwillingness, but the doctor told her that her husband's condition had worsened and he had died fifteen minutes ago.

Du Huixiang didn't believe it. She told Jiang Hongguo that he was seriously injured just to scare her. In fact, the injury would heal in more than a month. How could he die suddenly? He must have been murdered!

Sister Xiao is unreliable. Any of the two, three, four, and five people could have done it. Given her current situation, even if she knew the murderer, it would be impossible for Sister Xiao to seek justice for her and punish the murderer of her husband.

She wanted revenge, but she couldn't do it on her own, so she had to rely on the help of others.

When people die, they are dead. The dead will not know what they have done, but the living can feel it. She wants to make Sister Xiao and the real murderer who killed her husband regret it.

…

After hanging up the phone, Hongguo waited for a long time. Changzong and the others came back. She took the little one out of the bathtub and asked Changzong to wash him well.

When Changzong returned to the room, she asked, "Have the hidden dangers in the mine been eliminated?"

Gu Changzong sat diagonally on the bed, kissed the soft red fruit, and said with satisfaction: "We explored the geology and marked the weak directions. As long as no one destroys it, it will be fine."

Hong Guo was worried: "I need to find a reason to get rid of that traitor who planted the explosives. I'm also afraid that he will go to work in someone else's mine and do something bad. I can't think of a way to have the best of both worlds."

Gu Changzong said: "A thief must be guilty. Just make him suspicious and scare him crazy."

Hong Guo said, "You can't enforce justice on behalf of the law. Why don't you wait until he does something evil next time and catch him in the act and send him to jail."

Gu Changzong agreed, and under Hongguo's supervision, he learned to abide by the rules that everyone must abide by.

Too many things happened today, and Hongguo's brain was active. It took her a long time to fall asleep. Not long after she fell asleep, the phone rang again. Gu Changzong, who was hugging her, reached out to cut the phone line.

Hong Guo, who was still in a daze, quickly stopped him: "It must be an important call coming so late, answer it."

Gu Changzong picked up the phone and knew who the other party was after just one sentence. He didn't talk to the other party, but said to Hongguo, "It's Du Huixiang. She said her husband died and she wanted to talk to you."

If she said she wanted to talk to him, Gu Changzong would hang up the phone directly. As for Hongguo, he had no right to decide. Du Huixiang had learned her lesson this time and knew who to talk to.

Jiang Hongguo was so shocked by these words that she no longer felt sleepy. She put on her clothes and sat up, then took the phone from Gu Changzong. She didn't know how to start.

Du Huixiang was very calm this time. After thinking about it for half the night, of course she calmed down.

Du Huixiang said: "Jiang Hongguo, my husband is dead and I am about to be abandoned. Now in order to survive, I want to cooperate with you. I know some secrets. If you take them to the new leader, you will definitely get a lot of benefits in return."

Hong Guo never covets things that do not belong to her. She said, "My family is already doing well now. We don't need anything better. Your information is useless to me. You should talk to your boss about such a good deal."

Du Huixiang sneered: "Do you think I don't want to? Do you think he can do it? He can't. My intuition is very accurate. If I have to choose someone to tell, it's you and Gu Changzong. Telling others will only implicate more people. It's useless. If you don't believe it, forget it."

Hong Guo thought about it again and again and made a decision: "Then tell me the time and address, and I'll ask Chang Zong to drive to pick you up."

…

On the other side, it was already very late at night and Du Huixiang was still not found. Sister Xiao was still furious at home, teaching her godsisters and brothers-in-law a lesson.

"I've taught you a long time ago not to drive dogs into dead ends. If you force them into a corner, they will die together with you. Who caused the death of Lao Liu's man? Come out and accept the punishment."

Three, four, and five stood up together and admitted that it was their joint decision.

One of them said, "Big sister, Du Lianfang and her husband were too arrogant back then. What did they do to you? Now we can't get any information from them. It seems they can't get out. Du Huixiang is still so arrogant. This time we can take advantage of their illness to kill them, take back the mine, and hand it over to more useful people. Isn't that what we have always done?"

Things have come to this point, even if Du Huixiang comes back, she will no longer be on the same side as him, so why let down the people who are left around her?

Sister Xiao had no choice but to say, "Next time, don't act on your own. The most urgent thing is to find Du Huixiang. I warn you again, remember not to hurt her life again. After you find her, I have something to say to her."

…

That night, several groups of people stayed up all night, looking for Du Huixiang.

Gu Changzong drove to the address given on the phone. It was a small road with no street lights, it was pitch black, and there were few houses nearby.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Du Huixiang sneaked up to the car and gently knocked on the window.

Gu Changzong glanced at her and lowered his voice to call her, "Get out of here and hurry up. Guoguo didn't even get any sleep because of your nonsense. You're annoying, don't you know that? When we get to my house, if you dare to talk nonsense again instead of talking about business, I'll throw you back to your good sister's house."

Du Huixiang was so angry that she wanted to turn around and leave, but her body was rational and she climbed into the back of the car silently. She didn't expect that she would cooperate with Jiang Hongguo and Gu Changzong under such circumstances.

After entering the courtyard, Du Huixiang looked around. Four or five months seemed like a short time. She thought that the house looked grand on the outside and must be ordinary on the inside. She didn't expect it to be so comfortable and cozy. The contrast made her feel particularly uncomfortable. It had been less than half a year since her sister and brother-in-law had the accident, and she ended up like this.

Du Huixiang had a very up and down day today. She was worried and frightened for a long time. She was dirty and smelly. She asked, "I want to take a shower and adjust my state before talking. Is that okay?"

Hongguo remained silent. She could not feel any sympathy for Du Huixiang and did not want to lend her her bathroom. Hongguo felt that she was really heartless sometimes.

Gu Changzong would not lend it to you: "I won't lend it to you, ask them."

Yu Shan took a step back: "Don't look at me, I definitely won't lend it to you."

Old Zheng had no choice but to make a sacrifice: "Go to my front yard bathroom and wash."

Hongguo was the only girl in the yard, so it was convenient to take her to the bathroom. Hongguo just took a new, unused towel and took Du Huixiang there.

Du Huixiang looked at the luxuriously decorated bathing appliances and suddenly remembered something she learned when investigating Jiang Hongguo.

"I heard that in Shenzhen, Gu Changzong brought back a girl named Qu Lian. She lived in the same hotel as you, in the room next to yours. I thought you would be jealous, but you didn't. You even took the girl to bathe and change into clean clothes. Qu Lian is working for you now, so why is there nothing happening to her when she comes to me?"

Hong Guo thought, how can it be the same? Qu Lian was helpless and bullied, and she was at a loss.

Du Huixiang brought this upon herself. She buried explosives in her own mine, and now she expects me to give her clean clothes?

Hongguo absolutely believed that if she warmed up the frozen snake Du Huixiang at this moment, she would bite back without hesitation when she found the chance.

Hong Guo asked, "You guys are quite capable. You know so much about my family's affairs?"

Du Huixiang blamed others for the trouble: "It's not me, it's Sister Xiao. She has money and connections. Besides, the hotel's affairs are not secrets. She has seen a lot of things. You can spend some money to ask the waiter to find out. Ever since Gu Changzong came to take over the coal mine, Sister Xiao has been asking about your affairs in detail. She has spent a lot of money. If you have any secrets, be careful."

Hong Guo remained calm as she handed her the towel and said, "You don't have any clothes, but I can give you a towel. After you take a shower, put on this outfit. I also want to remind you that it's almost dawn, so hurry up. Someone will definitely come to inquire about the news when it's dawn. Chang Zong and the others will also have to go to the mine, so we won't have time to listen to you."
