Chapter 389: What is lost will never come back

When Fu Tinghua hurried to the river, the village chief had already organized people to go into the river to rescue people.

After taking a look at the river dam surrounded by villagers, Fu Tinghua finally understood why the body was not washed to other places by the river.

Some families will still plant some winter wheat in winter, but in winter, the river water will basically be lost and reduced a lot, so the villagers will basically surround the river bank to prevent too much water from flowing downstream.

As soon as the village chief saw Fu Tinghua, he immediately ran up to Fu Tinghua and said, "Tinghua, you're here."

"Yeah." Fu Tinghua nodded. At this time, the villagers had already moved the man's body to the shore.

Because the body was already stiff, the villagers had to work very hard to move the person to the shore.

Once they got ashore, the people who had gone into the river were already exhausted and out of breath.

"What a sin! This is not a child, but an adult." someone said.

The body was so swollen and wrinkled from blisters that it was impossible to tell who the person was.

"Whose family are you from? Are you from our village?"

"I don't know. Whose is it? Has anyone come out to claim it?"

"What a sin, damn it."

"Poor thing, this, this, this, is there no hope for it?"

"The current is not very strong at this time. If you accidentally fall into the water while standing on the river bank, you shouldn't be washed away and drowned, right?"

"Did you jump into the river out of frustration?"

"It shouldn't be our village. Our village is planning to build a road. By then, everyone's life will be better. Who would be so desperate as to jump into the river?"

"Yes, now almost every family can have enough food to eat, so who would want to jump into the river?"

In the eyes of these simple villagers, the most important thing is to have enough food and eat well. Generally, those who jump into the river do so because they are starving to death.

Now that every family has a good life, who would commit suicide?

"They may be from a village upstream of the river, not from our village, and were blocked by the river dam in our village."

While everyone was chattering, Fu Tinghua went forward to examine the body.

After checking from many angles, he confirmed that the person had been dead for at least eight or nine hours.

Then he took off his coat and covered the body.

"Hey Tinghua, use my uncle's clothes. My uncle's clothes are not valuable." Someone nearby looked at Fu Tinghua's coat with pity and said.

This coat doesn't look cheap.

The body was covered, so it was probably going to be thrown away.

Fu Tinghua shook his head, then turned to the village chief and said, "Uncle, has anyone from the Liu family come?"

After hearing what he said, the village chief understood something instantly, and suddenly felt like he was in a dream.

He turned his head and took another look at the unusually white color of the corpse, and his expression became even uglier.

He grabbed a person's hand and said to him with great difficulty, "Go to Liu's house and ask Old Man Liu and Old Lady Liu to come over."

The man's pupils widened and his mouth opened wide, but in the end he said nothing and quickly went to call for help.

The village chief sighed, and then pulled a young man to his side and whispered, "Go to Tinghua's house and ask his wife to find him a coat. Bring it here. It's not good to catch a cold."

The village chief is very powerful in the village, and now Fu Tinghua is the treasure of their village. Not to mention if the village chief asks him to go, even if just anyone asks him to get Fu Tinghua's coat, he will go.

"Yeah, okay." The man answered in a low voice, glanced at Fu Tinghua who was obviously in a very gloomy mood at the moment, turned around and ran towards Su He's house at the end of the village.

Su He and her two kids had just finished breakfast when they heard someone calling outside the door.

"Daughter-in-law Tinghua, are you home?"

Su He hurried out to greet him, then said with a smile: "I'm here, what can I do for you?"

Seeing how good-looking Su He was, the young man couldn't help but blush, and stammered, "I...I, I was called by the village chief to get Brother Tinghua's coat."

Su He didn't ask anything, turned around and went into the house to get him a coat.

Touching the clothes made of fine material, the young man immediately felt his frozen hands being warmed up.

"Thank you." Su He said to the young man with a smile.

"No, you're welcome... I'm leaving first." The young man said, turned around and ran away with his coat.

Oh my god, Brother Tinghua’s wife is so beautiful. He has never seen such a beautiful girl in the village.

Su He knew that Fu Tinghua would not be back for a while. He went out in a hurry and had not even had breakfast.

With a light sigh, Su He turned around and went back into the house.

When the Liu family was called to the river, they were still confused.

Because they were not sure whether the person was Liu Yi, the villagers did not dare to ask them to go to the river to claim the body. They only said that the village chief asked them to go.

If not, everyone will be happy.

If that's the case...then the Liu family is too miserable.

Two old people, the white-haired one dies the young one.

"What happened in the village? Why is there so much noise?" Old Lady Liu asked the person who came to call them as she walked.

The man didn't know how to answer, so he just said vaguely: "You will know when you go there."

Mrs. Liu muttered "so mysterious" and didn't ask any more questions.

But she always felt a little uneasy today, and she had this feeling since she woke up in the morning.

"By the way, did Ayi get up to go to work this morning?" Old Mrs. Liu suddenly asked Old Man Liu who was walking next to her.

"I don't know. He gets up earlier than us every day, so he must have gone." Old Man Liu said casually.

The person who came to call them heard the conversation between the two and his eyelids jumped.

But he still didn't say anything and silently led the person to the river.

Looking at so many people gathered by the river, the two elders of the Liu family looked at each other and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

In this situation, usually someone has drowned, which is why so many people gather by the river.

As soon as they saw the couple, the crowd dispersed automatically, making way for them.

The Liu couple looked at the lonely body covered with clothes lying on the ground, and they immediately began to tremble all over.

Old Mrs. Liu reached out and pinched Old Man Liu's hand.

Because she felt as if her legs were weak and she couldn't walk anymore.

Old man Liu seemed to have sensed something and his face instantly became much older.

He and Old Lady Liu supported each other and walked tremblingly towards the lying corpse.
