It seemed that this disappearance had terrified Cheng Dongkui, as she talked to Cheng Xiaokui for a long time before finally going to sleep.
Cheng Xiao Kui finally returned to Cheng Chun Kui's room, and she comfortably threw herself onto the bed.
She stretched on the bed, then got up, poured hot and cold water into a basin, and took a bath in the room.
Although his family has their own yard and a beautiful house, it's not so convenient for them to take a bath.
I can only wash myself in my own room; showering is simply a luxury.
She was thinking that once she made some money, she would add another yard behind the existing one and build a small two-story house. In the two-story house, she wanted to install running water and drainage, a bathroom, and a shower!
In this day and age, it's permissible to expand a little bit of space around your own house if you have available land. There's no such thing as illegal construction.
The main problem is that houses are not something that ordinary families can afford to build. Even if a family has space in front of or behind their yard, they generally don't have the money to build a house.
Moreover, the vast majority of them live in hutongs, with no space to build on top of their houses in front, behind, or to the sides.
She chose this house because she liked the wide open space behind it, which leads to the street.
In other words, this vacant lot is perfectly suitable for building a house.
After figuring out her future plans, she lay in bed, listening to the wind outside the window.
It's already early winter, and the wind outside is cold, with a gust of wind blowing.
Will the King come to see her tonight? ...
These days, she's been locked in the detention cell and hasn't slept well at all. She tried to listen carefully to the sounds outside, but she rubbed her head against the pillow and fell asleep the next second.
When Cheng Xiao Kui woke up, she found that it was already broad daylight, and the aunties and grandmas who came to work were already working in the yard.
She patted her head; she had been sleeping so soundly that she didn't even know if anyone had knocked on her back window or if the Emperor had come looking for her.
She gave a speechless smirk. If the Lord came looking for her and she didn't hear him, well, that would be quite amusing...
She put on Cheng Chun Kui's clothes, washed up, and redid her makeup before leaving the room to greet the aunties and grandmas.
Cheng Chunqiu was exceptionally capable, especially when she was with the aunties and grandmas. No matter what the aunties and grandmas were doing, Cheng Chunqiu would follow along.
After working for half a day, Cheng Xiao Kui was really exhausted. She couldn't help but sigh that Cheng Chun Kui was actually quite good to her...
But Song Wenhui was indeed killed by Cheng Chunqiu and Wu Jianguo together...
As the afternoon approached the time for opening, Cheng Xiao Kui took out the bar's sign and hung it on a big tree.
She followed Cheng Chunkui's instructions, saying that hanging it on the right side was a code signal for contacting superiors.
She hung the bar sign on the right side.
As she watched the banner flutter in the wind, her thoughts drifted to Si Muyang.
I wonder how Si Muyang is doing now?
At the military hospital.
Si Muyang finally sat up through his own efforts.
Song Yalan took the thermometer Si Muyang handed her and said happily, "Low-grade fever, stable low-grade fever! Haha! Comrade Si, you've passed the most dangerous period. Your health is getting better every day."
Once the inflammation subsides, the fever will stop; a decrease in fever temperature indicates that the symptoms of inflammation have lessened.
Si Muyang said, "Thank goodness... I'm finally feeling better. How is Xiao Kui now?"
Song Yalan said, "Xiao Kui should be doing well. My brother has been taking care of her, and he visits her often, bringing her some good food or something."
Si Muyang's face darkened. These were clearly tasks that he, as the husband, should have done, but Song Jingchuan had taken them all!
He lightly pounded his leg with his fist, wanting to get better quickly so that he could personally take care of Cheng Xiao Kui.
He asked, "Have you heard from your brother how the investigation into the spies is going?"
Song Yalan shook her head and said, "I haven't heard my brother mention this, so there probably isn't any progress."
However, the higher-ups haven't pressured us to close the case quickly; they've only ordered a thorough investigation, so there's still time to investigate.
Si Muyang said, "Then I need to get better quickly, catch the spy chief, and clear Cheng Xiaokui's name!"
Song Jingchuan, wearing a white coat, walked into the room and said, "You have quite the lofty ambitions. How are you feeling? Are you better?"
He held a stethoscope and listened to Si Muyang's heart and lungs.
Si Muyang said, "It's almost done. It'll be fine once the fever goes down."
Song Jingchuan said, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, even if your fever breaks, you'll need at least two months to recover."
Si Muyang asked, "How's your investigation going?"
Song Jingchuan said, "That's good!"
He answered with two words, decisive and firm.
Si Muyang asked, "What clue? Tell me how far you've gotten."
Song Jingchuan said, "These are all confidential, top secret. How can I tell you? You're not a member of our special team."
All I can tell you is that we've formed a special task force to investigate this case!
So you can rest assured about saving Cheng Xiao Kui; I'm here, and I won't let Cheng Xiao Kui be wronged!
Si Muyang chuckled softly and said nothing more.
After examining Si Muyang, Song Jingchuan picked up his stethoscope and left the room.
As he walked past Song Yalan, he said, "Come out here!"
Song Yalan obediently followed her older brother out. She asked, "Big brother, were you looking for me?"
Song Jingchuan said, "Do you remember that time I asked you to go to Cheng Xiaokui's house and told you that I might have found your long-lost family?"
Song Yalan nodded and said, "Yes, I remember. But when I went there, Song Wenhui said I wasn't his daughter."
Song Jingchuan said, "Because at that time, Cheng Chunqiu was more like her daughter, and the time when Cheng Chunqiu fell into the river was the same as the time she said."
The time you fell into the river didn't match the time she said. But now it turns out that Cheng Chun-kui isn't the eldest daughter of the Cheng family.
Song Wenhui has been lying all along; she deliberately gave the wrong time…
Song Yalan's eyes widened. She reached out and grabbed Song Jingchuan's arm, asking, "Big brother, are you saying that I'm the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, and I'm Cheng Xiaokui's older sister?!"
Song Jingchuan nodded and said, "Because you were indeed pulled out of the river. It was our dad who saved you. Everything is consistent with the process of the Cheng family's eldest daughter's disappearance, the only thing that's wrong is the timing."
Song Wenhui fabricated the timeline, claiming Cheng Chunkui as her eldest daughter, even though she knew Cheng Chunkui wasn't her daughter at all.
Cheng Chunqiu and Wu Jianguo joined forces to kill Song Wenhui, so that Song Wenhui would be silenced forever.
If Cheng Chun Kui isn't the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, then you must be!
Later I thought, maybe Song Wenhui felt it was better for you to stay at the Song family home than to go home.
Song Yalan placed her hand on her forehead and murmured, "I'm Xiao Kui's older sister, so Si Muyang and I..."
