After Zhang Fengxia passed away.

Someone reported it to the police, and someone went to inform the Lu family.

Not long after, the police came, but no one from the Lu family showed up.

As a witness, Shen Man was called to the police station for questioning.

She told the story truthfully. From 6pm to 8pm, a full two hours, no one was seen at the Lu family's house.

The people in charge of the case this time are the same people who dealt with the Lu family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law’s slander and defamation of Shen Man last time.

Naturally, he also knew the situation of the Lu family, so after asking about the situation, he let Shen Man go back.

I was afraid that she might be frightened and dare not go back alone at night, so I specially found a young female police officer to accompany her back.

"Comrade Shen, don't be afraid. This matter has nothing to do with you. You have already tried your best to call for help to rescue Zhang Fengxia. Go back and have a good sleep tomorrow night. When you wake up, everything will be fine."

It is indeed difficult for most people to recover after watching a life disappear in front of their eyes, and she can understand that.

In the late autumn night, the cold wind blows very coldly.

Shen Man couldn't help but tighten her clothes. After a long silence, she shook her head, "Meng Gongan, I want to ask, if the Lu family and the Zhang family don't come, what will happen to Zhang Fengxia's body?"

Meng Gongan sighed and said, "Since it involves human life, they have no choice but to come. Zhang Fengxia and Lu Zhengbing were married, and he is responsible for handling Zhang Fengxia's body."

As for the whole story, after visiting and investigating, they have roughly figured out what happened, but the specific situation still needs further investigation.

But what Lu's mother did was really too much. Because of her few words, a living life was lost.

And Zhang Fengxia's two children, ah... I don't know what to say...

Shen Man pursed her lips, feeling that everything that happened that day was just like a dream.

Soon, under the escort of Meng Gongan, she returned to the courtyard where Zhang Fengxia committed suicide by jumping into the well.

Shen Man subconsciously looked towards the well. There was nothing around, only a bottomless well.

She once again thought of Zhang Fengxia's desperate, painful, and numb eyes before she jumped into the well that day.

"Okay, don't look at me. Go back and cover yourself with the quilt and have a good sleep. Don't think about anything. You'll be fine once you fall asleep."

Meng Gongan stepped forward and blocked Shen Man's view of the well.

"If you're really scared, you can sleep somewhere else."

There was nothing to see in this well. Zhang Fengxia had already been pulled out, and now there was only water in the well.

Shen Man swayed, "It's okay, Meng Gongan, you go back first, I can do it alone."

Are you scared?

Actually, nothing. I just feel a little depressed and my mind is in a mess.

Meng Gongan glanced at her, a little worried, "Are you really okay?"

She looked a little pale.

Shen Man shook her head again, "It's okay, you go back first, I won't delay you."

"Okay then. I'll go first."

After the people left.

Shen Man did not go back to the house immediately. Instead, she stood in the yard, looking at the well quietly for a while, until the cold wind blew over her body without her noticing.

She then went back to her room.

As the water in the well was unusable and there was no water in the kitchen, Shen Man could only make do with it for one night, lying in bed.

She thought she would fall asleep, but she fell asleep quickly.

Until she woke up early the next morning, before work time, Shen Man woke up, went next door to borrow some clean water, washed up, and went to work as usual.

Early in the morning.

Yang Fang heard about this from her neighbor as soon as she went out.

Her face turned pale instantly, fearing that her daughter would be frightened, so she hurried to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask for leave, and then ran to the house rented by Shen Man.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing from others that Shen Man had already gone to work and there was nothing unusual.

Thinking it’s still early, it’s not a good idea to go to the factory to find Manman.

So Yang Fang learned from other people what happened yesterday afternoon and couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Lu's mother is not a good person. Who can bear the blow from her child for no reason? If it were her, she would probably collapse.

As for Zhang Fengxia...well, let's not talk about her.

Yang Fang was thinking about how to persuade her daughter to go back and live with her.

It's not safe to live here all the time. What if something like what happened yesterday happens again?

…

On the way to work, Shen Man could hear all kinds of stories about Zhang Fengxia jumping into a well and committing suicide last night.

In the office, some people were also discussing it. After all, Zhang Fengxia and Lu Zhengbing were both employees of the machinery factory, and they had lived in the factory compound before.

In a blink of an eye, it's time to get off work.

As soon as Shen Mang came out of the factory, she saw Yang Fang standing at the factory gate waiting for her.

She was stunned for a moment, then strode over and said, "Mom, why are you here? Aren't you at work?"

Yang Fang checked her up and down, and after making sure that nothing was wrong, the big rock in her body finally fell.

"Hey, such a big thing happened last night, why didn't you go home?"

"I heard someone talking about this last morning. I was almost scared to death, fearing that something might happen to you."

Shen Man took her arm and shook her gently, "Mom, I'm already in my teens, nothing can happen, don't worry about me all the time."

Yang Fang sighed, "You are my biological daughter. No matter how old you are, you are still a child in my eyes. If something happens to you, how can I not worry? You are not picked up by me."

"Yes, something happened in your yard, so you should move back. I'll keep your room for you and clean it every day. It's spotless and everything is the same as it was before."

Shen Man felt a little surprised, but it was normal after thinking about it. Her mother was indeed too worried about her.

But she didn't want to go back to the Shen family at all.

"Mom, I can just find a new house. It's no big deal."

Yang Fang glared at her and said, "No, it's not as comfortable as home. Mom can make delicious food for you when you go back. Look at you. You've only just moved out and lived on your own for a short time, and you've become a lot thinner."

"How can I let you live here alone?"

"Yes, go back and move the things now. Mom will help you move."

These days, the man at home has been nagging Manman to move back home, and actually she wants to too.

After all, it won't be long before the girl gets married again, and it's unclear when we'll see each other again.

This time it finally came true.

Shen Man had no choice but to refuse several times, but unfortunately she was rejected with various reasons.

Now, she had to go back whether she wanted to or not.
