Chapter 414 Bai Mei pays with her life?
Gu Yuehuai stayed here for one night and left Feng City early the next morning and boarded the train back to Qing'an County.
Xing Jian stood at the intersection and watched her leave. The cigarette in his hand burned his fingers but he didn't react yet.
A tall and thin young man ran over, looked over his shoulder, and said with a playful smile: "Brother Xing? Why don't you see Sister Gu off?"
Xing Jian threw the cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with the tip of his shoe, turned around, and slapped the tall and thin young man on the head: "Go back, there are a lot of things to do these two days, and there is a tough battle to fight. Cheer up and don't ask questions all day long."
The tall and thin young man chuckled and scratched his head. He felt a little scared when he thought about facing Cai Lan.
He said, "Brother Xing, are we really going to break up with Cai Lan? If he starts fighting, no one here can stand it."
Xing Jian's handsome face showed a ruthless look. He strode back and said coldly, "Then let's see who has the toughest bones!"
Since Gu Yuehuai trusts him, he naturally cannot let him down.

It was already late at night when Gu Yuehuai returned to Qing'an County.
She got off the train and returned to a familiar place, feeling much more relaxed.
There were no cars at this time, but fortunately Qing'an County was not far from the Dalaozi Production Brigade.
Gu Yuehuai didn't rest either, and walked home at a brisk pace.
About two hours later, the Dalaozi Production Brigade came into view. Gu Yuehuai was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw a series of bright lights moving. Even at this time, the brigade was still brightly lit, as if something had happened.
Gu Yuehuai frowned and quickened his pace as he ran over.
When she saw outside the Gu family yard, her bad premonition was confirmed.
There was a person lying outside the Gu family's yard, with his body and face covered with a white cloth, which looked a bit creepy in the night.
The incident seemed to be a big deal. Wang Fu, Wang Peisheng, Huang Fengying, and even Lei Dachui were all standing at the door. Their faces were serious, several times more serious than the day when they heard Huang Sheng raping Bai Mei.
In the courtyard, the entire Gu family was also there, but their faces were as pale as paper.
"Old Gu, what do you think we should do about this?" Wang Fu took a puff of his pipe, his voice very heavy.
Gu Zhifeng was a little flustered. He clenched the corner of his clothes and looked at the person lying on the ground covered with a white cloth: "Secretary, this, this is impossible? My daughter-in-law just went to treat a cold and got some medicine. She didn't do anything else!"
Wang Fu smiled bitterly: "Old Gu, this person is lying here, feel him and see if he is cold enough."
"I, I didn't, it wasn't me." Bai Mei's hair was disheveled, her eyes were red, and she shook her head desperately.
Killing someone would result in imprisonment or even death, but she just treated someone for a minor cold, so how could that person die?
"Don't be afraid, Xiaomei, don't be afraid, I'm here." Gu Tinghuai held Bai Mei tightly in his arms, not allowing her to look at the corpse lying on the ground. His face was solemn, as heavy as water, but his eyes were fixed on Huang Sheng in the crowd.
Huang Sheng's face was filled with grief, and he shouted angrily, "Who else could it be if not you? Old Li had a fever, and asked you to come and see him. But he died after taking the medicine you gave him. Can you calculate how long it has been since you left? I saw him die with my own eyes, how could it be false?"
Lei Dachui led a group of militiamen and stared at Gu Tinghuai and Bai Mei with a fierce look.
He said in a gruff voice, "Why are you saying so much? Just let me take her away and send her to the police station. If she really treated someone carelessly and killed him, then she will pay with her life!"
Huang Sheng's eyes flashed, but his tone was still sad: "Captain Lei is right. Old Li can't die in vain. He was an educated youth sent to the countryside, a native of Beijing. If he died here inexplicably, how can we explain to his parents when we go back?"
Lei Dachui also understood this principle, and waved his hand, saying, "Take the person away!"
There is no good person in the Gu family, and he is happy to see them suffer.
The militia stepped forward, ready to take Bai Mei away, when they heard someone in the crowd say coldly, "Wait!"
Everyone turned to look over, all with surprised looks on their faces. They didn't expect that Gu Yuehuai would come back tonight.
"Nannan?"
"Yue Huai?"
"Sister Yue Huai?"
The Gu family was surprised and happy, but when they thought about the current situation, no one could laugh.
Gu Yuehuai walked forward, half-knelt in front of the corpse, lifted the white cloth and saw Li Erxin's face. He had taken off his glasses, and it was probably because he had just died, so his face was not very pale.
Huang Sheng's heart sank when he saw Gu Yuehuai. He always felt that this woman was weird and nothing could be done with her around. He immediately stepped forward, grabbed the white cloth and covered it again, and shouted, "Gu Yuehuai, Li Erxin is dead. Don't you know how to respect the dead? Or are you in cahoots with Bai Mei? Did you give her the medicine?"
As he spoke, Huang Sheng stood up, looked down at Gu Yuehuai and smiled coldly.
"I heard that you are a reporter who studied medicine, and Bai Mei is a nurse. It's okay for her to blindly treat patients, but what's wrong with you? I haven't seen you in the past few days. Could it be that you went out of town to buy fake medicine?"
Gu Yuehuai raised his head and glanced at Huang Sheng, his eyes were calm and indifferent, even with a hint of sarcasm.
Although she only heard half of it, she roughly understood what was going on.
Bai Mei had been studying medical books with her for some time. The two of them could cure some of the common minor illnesses of the Gu family. Once, Huang Fengying happened to cough twice, so Bai Mei prescribed a folk remedy for her.
Huang Fengying found the medicine effective, so she spread the word in the brigade that she and Bai Mei could treat people.
As a result, everyone who had a headache, fever, or felt unwell would come to ask her about it. She would answer those who could, and if they couldn't, she would tell them to go to Uncle Six or go to the hospital. She went to Huaihai City these days, so everyone who came to her went to see Bai Mei.
Li Erxin and Huang Sheng were staying in the same family. The former had a cold and fever, so he came to Bai Mei for help.
Bai Mei naturally wouldn't refuse, but unfortunately, something went wrong.
In the eyes of everyone, Bai Mei became a "murderer" who had no medical qualifications, treated patients indiscriminately and gave them fake medicines.
Huang Sheng was so impatient to gather people together. Who would believe him if he said he was not seeking revenge?
"We have to investigate the matter thoroughly. The body is still here. Why are you arresting people privately without waiting for the police to come and investigate? And I want to ask, how long has Li Erxin been dead?"
Gu Yuehuai threw the bag in her hand to Gu Xihuai and clapped her hands, looking tired but having to cheer up.
Gu Xihuai frowned and handed the bag to Yan Shaoyang who was standing beside him. He was already able to stand up and walk slowly a few steps. When something happened tonight, he rushed out of the house and wanted to help.
Huang Sheng said coldly: "Why do you care about these things? Li Erxin was killed by Bai Mei, she must pay with her life!"
