Chapter 87 Seeking the Auntie to Settle the Account
Instantly, the office door was banged open, and two policemen, one fat and one thin, ran out. They hadn't even swallowed the food in their mouths yet, and their faces were terribly gloomy:
"Where are the people?"
Ye Xiaomei was startled and pointed at her nose: "I was the one who reported the case."
"Come on, come here to register." The fat man quickly pushed Ye Xiaomei and brought her into the office, and then the door was closed.
The tall and thin man sat down seriously and looked at Ye Xiaomei with a sharp gaze: "Tell me first if there is any dead person."
Ye Xiaomei was slightly stunned and shook her head.
"That's good." The tall and thin man relaxed.
The fat man closed his eyes and patted his chest: "I'm so scared. The last case hasn't been solved yet. Little girl, don't scare me, it will scare me to death."
This confused Ye Xiaomei. Even if someone died, a police officer wouldn't be so scared. "It was my sheep and rabbits that died."
"Tell me from the beginning. The more detailed the better." The tall and thin man asked while eating fried dough sticks. The atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.
Ye Xiaomei told the whole story from beginning to end. The fat man scratched his head and slammed the pen in his hand on the table:
"What kind of year is this? Why are there so many deadly pesticides in the fields? The owner of the pesticide is really chasing a tiger with his pants off. He is shameless and desperate."
The tall and thin man frowned and said, "What does it have to do with the boss who sells medicine? It's originally intended to be used to kill weeds. It's clearly written in the instructions. There have been several such incidents in the past month or so this year."
Ye Xiaomei sat opposite the two of them like a nobody, watching them talking to each other.
"He poisoned someone to death last month," the tall and thin man added.
"Ah? Someone died?" Ye Xiaomei was shocked: "How to judge the dead?" Ye Xiaomei has not read enough law books recently. She came to the police. At least she was sure that after the matter was verified, her aunt's family would have to pay compensation.
The fat man scratched his head vigorously, and some dandruff fell off: "Yes, your case of a few dead sheep and twelve rabbits is nothing compared to this case."
Ye Xiaomei stared at the dandruff on the table with wide eyes. Some of it fell on the folder. The fat policeman blew it away casually and picked out the black ash in the gaps between the fingernails of the finger that was scratching his head.
Ye Xiaomei discovered that an inconspicuous black dot was blown to her side. Chui Mu took a look and saw that it was still moving - a louse?
Ye Xiaomei stood up suddenly. She had this problem when she was a child, and her mother forced her to shave her head to cure it.
"Excuse me, when are you going to the plum blossom pole to verify it?" As Ye Xiaomei said this, she lowered her head and looked warily at the louse that was crawling around.
“Bang!”
Ye Xiaomei looked in the direction of the voice and found that the fat man had pressed the page where she had taken notes with his fingernail.
A louse died instantly, leaving a little blood mark.
Ye Xiaomei grinned awkwardly.
The fat man then got back to the point: "Oh, this matter has to go through the procedures. You just said that you haven't privately negotiated compensation with the perpetrator, so try to communicate with the village committee first. If the communication fails, you can notify us and we will intervene and coordinate as soon as possible."
Ye Xiaomei had no choice but to go back first.
The morning market in the county town was extremely lively. Ye Xiaomei had no mood to stroll around and went straight to find Mr. Xie.
The old man was leisurely trimming the roses in the yard. Ye Xiaomei got the address of the rabbit fur collection place and went over.
This year's price of rabbit hair is five yuan more per catty than last year, which means it can be sold for fifty-five yuan per catty. The rabbit hair is not weighed, and twelve rabbits only weigh less than two catties, and the total price is one hundred and five yuan.
Ye Xiaomei looked at the money in her hand and felt a little suffocated for a moment. If her sheep were not dead, they would be sold at a price of ten yuan per catty. A sheep would weigh at least forty catties, and six sheep would cost more than two thousand yuan.
Ye Xiaomei had never seen so much money before. This was the first pot of gold she had been dreaming about day and night, but she didn't expect it to be gone.
It was already noon when Ye Xiaomei returned to Meihua Village. She stood at the fork in the road and hesitated for a moment. Then she gritted her teeth and turned back to the Ye family.
"It's not good, they're all dead." At the door of the Ye family, several neighbors smacked their lips while holding their bowls, with a look of pity on their faces.
"That's right. I heard that the price of mutton is more expensive this year than last year."
"That's right. Who wouldn't want to drink a bowl of spicy mutton soup in the cold winter? It's much more expensive than pork, Minzhi, you must know this."
Wang Minzhi was sipping her porridge. She felt relieved when she heard the discussion. All the sheep and rabbits were dead. How could Zhao Mei survive there? She didn't even come back to work.
"I don't know. When did it happen?"
"You sisters-in-law are too distant with each other. Just this morning, everyone died. Zhao Mei even fainted from crying."
Wang Dazui said with a grin, "I was so distressed that I rolled my eyes. I almost couldn't come back."
"Oh!" Wang Minzhi's eyes widened. "It's so serious! I have to go see my sister-in-law. After all, she is my sister-in-law. If anything happens to her, it will be a disaster."
Having said that, Wang Minzhi wiped her mouth and went back to the yard, thinking to herself, it would be better if he died. But then she thought that the herbicide was really poisonous. Fortunately, she asked the man what would happen if he drank it. The boss was so scared at the time that he said it was not allowed and that anyone who drank it would die.
"Mom, have you heard?" Wang Minzhi ran into the main room. The old lady had just finished her meal and was wiping her mouth with a satisfied look on her face.
"I heard that all the sheep and rabbits died, and Zhao Mei cried so much that she almost died. How about you give me some money so I can buy some things and go see Zhao Mei." Wang Minzhi added.
When the old lady heard about money, she stood up immediately and said, "Let her die. Why waste that money? Who told her to run away? It's better for her to die outside."
When Wang Minzhi heard this, she felt extremely miserable. Damn it! She wished she could be struck by lightning and die rather than work herself to death doing this corrupt job:
"Mom, think about it, if we treat Zhao Mei better, wouldn't there be an extra hand at home? Besides, you always complain that my cooking is not tasty and that the meat is not evenly cooked all week, but Zhao Mei can do it."
The old lady lowered her eyes and glanced at the radish and vermicelli stew on the table, and she understood a little:
"No, I don't want any money. I have a can of food in the cupboard in my room. You can just take a few eggs."
Canned food? Wang Minzhi was stunned.
"It was given to that damned girl Xiao Mei by the Ma family when she got engaged. I couldn't even bear to eat it myself, so just let her enjoy it secretly."
After hearing this, Wang Minzhi thought to herself: He is really good at hiding things. It has been such a long time. It is okay if he has no money, but he can't keep his hands empty and let the villagers see and gossip about him.
As soon as I took out the canned food, Ye Xiaomei arrived and hurriedly leaned her bike against the wall outside the door:
"Don't be so hypocritical, Auntie. You know exactly how the sheep died."
As she spoke, Ye Xiaomei had already arrived in the yard. The villagers who were having dinner outside gathered at the door to watch the excitement.
Wang Minzhi was holding the can of yellow peaches in her hand and stood in the hall in a daze: "What are you talking about, little girl? How can I know why the sheep died?"
When Li Cuihua saw Ye Xiaomei sucking her teeth in disgust, she felt so disgusted that she simply pretended to be blind and went back to her room to take a nap.
Ye Xiaomei's heart was burning with anger: "You don't know? Didn't you get up early in the morning to deliver corn seedlings to my mother? Don't say you didn't know that pesticides were sprayed on them."
Wang Minzhi's heart sank. How did this girl know this? Even she had heard from others that spraying herbicides would not require weeding, and it would not damage the corn seedlings.
I thought there was such a magical medicine? When I went to the seed and pesticide store, I asked and found out that there was such a medicine. It happened that she was too lazy to weed. Just as she was about to leave after buying it, Wang Minzhi suddenly remembered that Zhao Mei and her mother had been to the fields to pick up other people's seedlings a few days ago. The idea of killing two birds with one stone came to her mind instantly.
"Are you spraying pesticides?" I heard the villagers talking outside.
"That's incredible. No wonder all the sheep and rabbits in Zhao Mei's family died."
Upon hearing the discussion outside, Wang Minzhi slammed the can in her hand on the table, strode into the yard, and said anxiously:
"Girl, you mean that the herbicide is poisonous?"
