He Hongjun was worried. He had no experience in taking care of children. He didn't even dare to hold such a small and soft baby, for fear of hurting the child or making the child uncomfortable. He became anxious as soon as the child cried, and when he was anxious he forgot everything and became confused and didn't know what to do.
The old man's idea was exactly what he wanted. He wanted to find an aunt to help, and he could lend a hand and learn how to take care of the child at the same time, so that there would be a transition period.
He Hongjun naturally favored Aunt Xu. When he told Aunt Xu about this in secret, Aunt Xu immediately agreed. Her son was on a mission, her daughter-in-law had a job, and her grandson was in school and only came home at night. She had nothing to do all day long. This way, she could help He Hongjun and Sun Chaqin, find something to do for herself, and earn some pocket money. It was a win-win situation. Why not do it?
With Aunt Xu's hands-on teaching, and the child being a well-behaved child, he wouldn't make a fuss as long as he was full of milk and his butt was clean. He would only cry for three or four times a night, and would stop when he was finished drinking milk. He was definitely tired, but at least he could have some rest in between.
Aunt Xu stayed at He Hongjun's house all day. In addition to helping take care of the child, she also made milk-inducing soup for Sun Chaqi, which was almost the same as her mother-in-law's confinement nanny.
Early that morning, Song Yun and Gu Laotou had finished breakfast and were about to go to work in the camp when two police officers came to the family compound. Song Yun recognized them at a glance as Captain Qian, who was in charge of the previous murder case.
"Captain Qian, do you have something to talk to me about?" Song Yun asked Captain Qian who stopped her.
Captain Qian said, "It's about the murder case in Xiqin Mountain last time. I have a few questions for you. Is it okay to bother you?"
Song Yun looked around and saw a pair of eyes looking towards her. She smiled and said, "It's okay. Ask ahead."
Captain Qian asked, "What were you doing in the mountains that day?"
Song Yun said, "Collecting herbs."
Captain Qian nodded and asked, "Did you touch the body after you found it?"
Song Yun shook her head. "No, I just went over to take a look, and after confirming that he was dead, I backed away."
"When you saw the body, did you notice anything unusual about it?"
Song Yun raised her eyebrows. This is a very interesting question, don’t you think?
"There are actually quite a lot of abnormal places." Song Yun said truthfully.
Captain Qian said, "For example?"
"For example, the deceased had nothing to rest her feet on. How did she manage to get her head inside the rope? For example, the bark on the tree trunk where the rope was hung had shed heavily. I'm sure you've done experiments. If she had simply hanged herself, the rope wouldn't have rubbed the bark into that shape. For example, the deceased's facial expression doesn't match the characteristics of suicide by hanging. When I saw her, her eyes were closed. As far as I know, most people who hang themselves have their eyes open and turned upwards. Also, the deceased's shoes. From what I saw at the time, the soles of her shoes were relatively clean. It doesn't seem consistent with someone climbing up the mountain and then going deep into the mountains to commit suicide."
Tomorrow we're going to my grandma's house for a day of drinking. Is there anyone like me? I get a headache just thinking about a table full of meat dishes.
Don’t forget to give me some love when you’re gone.
