Chapter 328 Stuffed Back
Next, all we need to do is get the marriage certificate from the Cao family and then bring back Lin Xiuzhen's remains.
Surprisingly, compared to the Lin family, the Cao family obtained the marriage certificate with extraordinary ease.
The person whose spirit matched Lin Xiuzhen's was a well-known nouveau riche family in Caojia Village. Since they were nouveau riche, they must have been quite wealthy.
Because they were rich, this family could practically do whatever they wanted in Caojia Village.
In addition, since Cao Xiaoang was the only son in their family, they naturally indulged him in everything and spoiled him so much that he became lawless.
Cao Xiaoang hung out with hooligans in junior high school, and after entering high school, he formed gangs and became involved with drugs. He dropped out of school at a young age and lived a life of slaving off his parents, dreaming of becoming a gang leader.
Unexpectedly, after only a few days, he was stabbed several times in a gang fight and died on the spot.
It's worth mentioning that Cao Xiaoang didn't just die recently; he's been dead for three or four years.
It just so happens that before Lin Xiuzhen died, Cao Xiaoang's mother dreamed for several days in a row that Cao Xiaoang said he was too lonely down there and asked her to send someone down to keep him company.
This Madam Cao was the culprit who caused her son's tragedy, and she almost always followed her son's lead in everything.
Her son said he was lonely and wanted someone to come down and keep him company, so she helped him get married!
However, there are rules to follow when it comes to choosing a wife. Madam Cao spent several months looking, but either the family was unwilling or their horoscopes didn't match.
It was at this time that the Lin couple got wind of the situation and took the initiative to approach the person to discuss this "marriage."
Madam Cao initially disliked Lin Xiuzhen because she had given birth to a child and was older than her own son.
Who would have thought that if someone took their birth date and time to an old charlatan for a compatibility analysis, they would actually be compatible?
Under the old charlatan's bewitching rhetoric of "a woman three years older brings good fortune" and "a match made in heaven," Madam Cao reluctantly gave the Lin family a large sum of money as a betrothal gift and arranged a proper "wedding" for her son and Lin Xiuzhen.
It's fair to say that if it weren't for the old charlatan's matchmaking, the Lin and Cao families might not have gotten married.
Strictly speaking, if it weren't for their marriage, Ye Wanxi wouldn't have come to this place, let alone know the secret of Linjia Village.
I wonder if the old charlatan ever regretted his misstep before he slipped away like a cicada shedding its skin.
Brother Cao was a relative of Cao Xiaoang's family. Cao Xiaoang's father did a lot of dirty work to make his fortune and his hands were not clean.
As soon as Brother Cao was arrested, Cao Xiaoang's parents were also taken in.
Those who remained were all timid and afraid of trouble, and dared not get involved in these matters.
Upon hearing the purpose of Ye Wanxi and the others' visit, they did not dare to delay and quickly found another marriage certificate. They even took the initiative to lead them to the graves of Cao Xiaoang and Lin Xiuzhen.
"At first, according to the old charlatan, the idea was to open the coffin and bury the two remains together. But my aunt disagreed, saying that opening the coffin would disturb my cousin's peace. In the end, they just added another coffin next to my cousin's coffin."
The Song family members all breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, and Ye Wanxi was also somewhat relieved.
You should know that after that old guy helped the two of them get married, he also used some tricks to accelerate the decomposition of Lin Xiuzhen's body. Now there is only a skeleton in her coffin.
Needless to say, Cao Xiaoang's coffin was empty; he had been dead for three or four years and was now just a pile of bones.
If it weren't for Madam Cao's insistence, and the two were indeed buried together in the same coffin, their bones would have been mixed together, and someone would have had to personally separate their remains piece by piece, which would have taken a lot of effort.
After Lin Xiuzhen's coffin was erected, Ye Wanxi unfolded the marriage certificate in front of everyone, took out a cinnabar pen and wrote and drew on it. Suddenly, the words on the marriage certificate changed.
Immediately, he lit a fire and threw both marriage certificates into the iron basin to burn.
As it burned, a sudden gust of cold wind swept in, heading straight for the two burning marriage certificates.
Unfortunately, before he could even touch Ye Wanxi's clothes, Feng Tianyu grabbed him casually and slammed him back into the coffin like a ball, making a loud thud that sounded painful.
Everyone: “?!!”
"It's okay, I put it back."
"..." It was put back? What the hell was put back? You should at least explain it to me clearly, this ambiguity is even scarier!
Ye Wanxi had already noticed the unusual gust of cold wind and heard her senior brother's blunt and scathing explanation.
With a slight smile, he used a twig to stir the contents of the iron basin twice, making sure both marriage certificates were completely burned, before getting up and dusting off his hands.
"Done!"
Song Zhaoming paused for a moment, his face showing surprise: "It's all settled? Then, Miss Ye, this..."
"Go back to your own homes and find your own mothers. They are no longer bound by marriage, so you can take her wherever you want."
Song Zhaoming touched the slightly damp coffin that had just been dug out of the ground, and couldn't believe that things had gone so smoothly.
Ye Wanxi didn't care what he thought. Once the marriage between Lin Xiuzhen and Cao Xiaoang was severed, the matter was considered closed.
The rest is up to the Song family to handle; it has little to do with her.
With the Song family's matter resolved, Ye Wanxi originally planned to go home with Feng Tianyu and Gao Min immediately.
Unfortunately, she had just returned to town when she received a call from Zou Yiluan and others.
"Anything else?"
Zou Yiluan was a little embarrassed, but out of caution, he still had to make the call.
"I'm sorry to bother you at this hour, Miss Ye. There's a problem with the case in Linjia Village. Most of the victims are unwilling to identify the people who bought and sold them. A few are willing, but..."
"Just what?"
"One of the victims said they really want to meet you. Is it convenient for you? If it's not convenient, I'll help you decline."
Ye Wanxi pondered for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Who is it?"
"Her name is Wu Muhong. Master Zou said that she was a great help when you were exorcising that evil spirit last night."
If it weren't for this relationship, Zou Yiluan wouldn't have made this call to Ye Wanxi at this time.
"It's her." Ye Wanxi frowned slightly, recalling her interaction with that vengeful ghost last night, and became even more curious.
"She wants to see me?"
"yes."
Did they say what it was about?
"No, I just wanted to meet with you to talk about something."
"Okay, where is she? I'm coming over right now."
After the incident in Linjia Village was exposed, not only were a number of people arrested, but victims like Wu Muhong were also taken to the police station for questioning.
Some of these people still remember their home phone number and will ask the police to contact their families first. Whether they stay or leave is their own choice, and their wishes will be respected.
Others are more resistant to this, not only unwilling to call home, but also preferring to return to the "home" that confines them.
