Chapter 28: Ten Years of Life and Death (18)
Jiang Lixing couldn't persuade Ning Huanxin, so he had to drive her back to Zhangjia Town.
The crew took a break today and everyone was busy with their own things. Many people went to the town to take pictures. After all, Zhangjia Town has a history of hundreds of years and many of the buildings in the town are very ancient and suitable for taking pictures.
While Jiang Lixing went to park the car, Ning Huanxin got out of the car alone and quickly came to the innermost room in the courtyard.
Aunt Zhang lives here.
Although the villagers of Zhangjia Town cannot be said to be isolated from the outside world, they have always been self-sufficient. There is a large field outside the town, and most of the townspeople rely on farming to maintain their daily lives.
But Aunt Zhang's family was different. Her husband's family was said to be the richest family in the town except for the patriarch, so after her husband died of illness, she inherited a large amount of property, including this compound.
Therefore, Aunt Zhang does not have to work as hard as others. In the past few years, more and more people have come here to film. Aunt Zhang is different from other people in Zhangjia Town. Many townspeople exclude outsiders, but Aunt Zhang is willing to rent her house to outsiders. In this way, the house does not need to be vacant all year round, and she can also get a considerable income. It can be said that she kills two birds with one stone.

"Aunt Zhang!"
Ning Huanxin knocked on Aunt Zhang's door.
After a while, Aunt Zhang opened the door and looked at Ning Huanxin with a wary look.
"Aunt Zhang, I want to talk to you."
Ning Huanxin's tone was particularly serious, but after hearing her words, Aunt Zhang's eyes flickered: "You don't have to ask me again, I won't say anything to you."
As she said that, Aunt Zhang was about to close the door, but Ning Huanxin quickly dodged and went straight into the room.
This caught Aunt Zhang off guard, and her expression became anxious: "What on earth do you want to know!"
"I want to know the truth, the truth about your cousin's death, and the truth about the entire Li Village being burned to death and buried alive!"
Ning Huanxin pressed forward step by step, looking at Aunt Zhang with a stern gaze.
"You...how do you know?"
Aunt Zhang took a few steps back and looked at Ning Huanxin in disbelief.
"I saw it."
Ning Huanxin sighed: "I saw the past, I saw you and your cousin holding a ceremony in that river, I also saw someone set fire to that village, that village is called Lijia Village, right? I saw... those who set the fire are from your Zhangjia Town!"
"ah!"
When Aunt Zhang heard Ning Huanxin mention that incident, her face turned pale.
More than twenty years have passed, and even now she still dreams of the fire and the tragic scene occasionally in the middle of the night.
"Did you really see it?"
At this point, Aunt Zhang finally began to believe Ning Huanxin's words: "Since you've seen it all, why did you come to me?"
"What I saw was sporadic, and I always felt that the most crucial thing was missing. I believe... you know that thing, and everyone in Zhangjia Village... knows about it, right?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Ning Huanxin's eyes were particularly bright.
Facing her gaze, Aunt Zhang finally nodded slowly: "Okay, now that things have come to this, it doesn't hurt to tell you."
For so many years, she had been keeping that incident deep in her heart. She was in great pain, but had no one to talk to. Especially when the entire town selectively forgot about the incident, Zhang Yunshu felt even more uncomfortable in her heart.
