Chapter 60 Cause of Death



Qin Muye saw Xie Wan's expression and knew that she was not ready yet.

He explained: “Housing is tight in the division right now.

Although battalion-level officers can be allocated houses, they are only available to those who have started a family.

I heard from the group leader before that if I plan to get married, it is best to apply in advance.

Because the families of several battalion commanders will soon be joining the army, there are not enough houses to allocate, so they have to wait in line."

Xie Wan understood.

"You mean, we should line up first?"

Qin Muye nodded.

Xie Wan thought about it and felt that it made sense.

Who knows how long this queue will take? Anyway, it’s just a report and it won’t end immediately, so it doesn’t seem to matter.

"Then go and write a report!" Xie Wan said indifferently.

She really wanted some space to be alone.

She has met Qin Muye many times in the past few days, but due to the current conservative atmosphere, she didn't get any advantage from him.

If they continued to get along like this, she felt that she was not in a relationship, but rather was really getting along with revolutionary comrades.

Qin Muye was excited.

"Xiao Wan, you agree to get married? Does that mean I've passed the test?"

Xie Wan tapped Qin Muye's chest and said, "We need to continue investigating, but I think marriage is not the ultimate goal. Living a good life is the goal.

Even if they are married, if they don't get along well, aren't there still many divorces?"

Qin Muye couldn't understand Xie Wan's thoughts again. He scratched his head and said, "Xiao Wan, marriage is a lifelong thing. How can you get divorced so easily?"

Xie Wan stuck out his tongue.

In this day and age, divorce is indeed rare.

"Okay, I was wrong." Xie Wan didn't want to dwell on this issue, and she quickly gave in.

The two drove back to the army.

They sent the truckload of corn back to the army's logistics department.

After seeing the quality of the corn, Secretary Zhang, who was in charge of logistics, was very satisfied.

He said, "This truckload costs 200 yuan, and 200 kilograms of food coupons. Is that okay?"

Xie Wan is of course willing.

Although she estimated that she could sell the threshed grain for 300 yuan, which was 100 yuan less, but given the food coupons for 200 kilograms, it was a good deal.

Xie Wan spent fifty yuan to buy these corn seeds.

This meant that she earned 150 yuan plus 200 kilograms of food coupons in one go.

With these two hundred kilograms of food coupons, if she meets the middle-aged man from last time, she can also ask him if he has any other antiques at home.

Moreover, a whole truckload of corn cobs was processed at once, which saved her from a lot of trouble.

Last time, Ren Dazhuang gave her a lot of seed tickets. She had to go to the seed point again to see if there were any other crops that were easy to sell and could be planted.

If she could plant all the ten acres of land in the space, wouldn't she be able to become a millionaire very quickly?

Secretary Zhang said: "Comrade Xie Wan, if your fellow villagers have extra vegetables and grains in the future, as long as they are of good quality, please feel free to send them to us.

Food is in short supply now, and the soldiers' meals are very monotonous. We will purchase some unplanned food, vegetables, and meat to improve the soldiers' living standards."

Xie Wan asked carefully: "Will this not make a mistake?"

Secretary Zhang smiled and said, “Each of our groups already has a certain amount of independent purchasing.

The allocated rations were not enough, and we usually had to find ways to improve our food.”

Only then did Xie Wan feel relieved.

She suddenly felt that growing crops in space had a new meaning.

There is now spiritual energy in the space. If the soldiers eat the food grown in the space, their combat effectiveness will definitely become stronger.

With the two hundred yuan, Xie Wan went straight to the department store and spent two hundred and ten yuan to buy a latest model of Shanghai brand men's watch.

When she gave it to Qin Muye, Qin Muye said seriously: "Xiao Wan, you are still a student, how can I accept such an expensive gift from you?

But I'm still very happy that you bought it for me.

How about this, I will return the money to you, and it will still be considered as a gift from you."

Xie Wan insisted: "Since we are in a relationship, you can give me a bicycle, why can't I give you a watch?"

Qin Muye's expression was not very happy: "Do you have to calculate it so clearly?

Xiao Wan, did you buy this watch because you don't want to owe me a favor? "

Xie Wan felt that this was another difference in concepts, and pouted and said, "Qin Muye, you misunderstood. I think feelings are equal, and giving gifts is just a way to express feelings.

"Only by giving and taking can we get along for a long time. What's wrong with that?"

Qin Muye didn't understand, but he respected.

Finally, after Xie Wan's persistence, Qin Muye accepted the watch.

Xie Wan put it on him personally and said, "Haha, this is a token of our love. From now on, you'll be mine."

After hearing this, Qin Muye's discomfort disappeared.

He thought to himself, "It seems that I have to speed up the process and get married sooner so that I can support her in the future and give all my salary to her."

Qin Muye quickly submitted the marriage report.

After Xie Dahong found out, he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling for several days.

He went home and asked Shi Yun, "How much savings do we have?"

Shi Yun told him there were more than a thousand.

Xie Dahong frowned: "Why is it only this much?"

Shi Yun calculated with him: "Of your monthly salary, you should keep 80 for yourself, and only give me 100.

With so many people in my family, it’s not easy to save so much.”

Xie Dahong said, "Go get me 500 tomorrow."

Shi Yun asked him what it was for, and Xie Dahong then told Shi Yun the news that Xie Wan was about to marry Qin Muye.

Shi Yun was unhappy when she heard that.

Although she didn't tell the truth, the money in the family was much more than a thousand yuan, but she thought that Xie Wan had no share in the family's money.

But she couldn't say that.

Shi Yun said: "There are four children in the family, so we have to treat them fairly no matter what.

Xiao Wan spent half of her savings by herself, I don't agree."

Xie Dahong said, "Xie Xing is still so young, he will have to wait another ten years for the money.

You give me 500 first, and when other children need money, we will find a way."

Shi Yun firmly opposed and refused to hand over the passbook.

The two had another big fight over this.

A few days later, Xie Wan heard about the progress of the case of Zheng Hu's murder.

It was Xu Bing who found out the news.

“Captain Wang said that the man was not killed, but died of an infection caused by an injury.

The forensic examination found no other man-made injuries.”

Xie Wan remembered that day in the woods, she did chop Zheng Hu's back with a sickle.

This is recorded in the Public Security Bureau.

Doesn't this mean that she was the one who killed Zheng Hu?
