Chapter 41 Aunt Duan died, and Chen Qian took over personally?
The mud mixed with the accumulated water on the mountain rushed forward.
Jiang Wan reacted quickly and pulled Song Jiuchi and Song Jiuli aside before running away.
Others were not so lucky. Some who ran fast were fine, while those who ran slowly were directly swept into the mud.
Song Jiuli and Song Jiuchi looked at the people who were washed away in front of them, their faces turned pale with fear.
Not to mention them, Song Jiuyuan and Madam Song who were not far away were also frightened to the point that their hearts were beating fast. Fortunately, the people they cared about were all fine.
"Old Three, Old Three!"
Old Madam Song was originally standing on one side, but now she rushed over with a slight trembling.
The scene was a little chaotic for a while. Jiang Wan looked at Chen Qian, who was a few steps away, with disgust in her eyes.
Because she had just seen clearly that in order to save his life, Chen Qian pushed Aunt Duan down the landslide.
It was probably a dangerous situation at this moment, and Chen Qian's face turned pale, frightened and at a loss.
"My husband, my husband!"
Mrs. Song San broke down and cried. In addition to Aunt Duan, the Song family also lost a third sister, Song.
This is the consequence of not trusting Jiang Wan. The few people who did not run away after hearing Jiang Wan's reminder were basically not spared.
On the contrary, these officials and Chen Ce had great trust in Jiang Wan, and everyone escaped with no danger.
Except for Aunt Duan's lover, these two really became a pair of wild lovebirds.
Jiang Wan stood there with heavy eyes, and Ren Bang walked over with a look of regret on his face.
"It's my fault that I didn't listen to you before, otherwise this disaster could have been avoided."
He also lost a brother. At this moment, Ren Bang was so heartbroken that his eyes were full of grief.
Jiang Wan didn't know what to say. She sighed and said, "I was just making reasonable suggestions. I couldn't have predicted that this would actually happen."
The only thing she could do was to protect the people around her. As for the rest, she was powerless.
"well!"
Ren Bang shook his head in regret, but did not dare to delay and called for people to start rescuing people.
Worried about a second landslide, Jiang Wan stood on the side and observed the situation. Song Jiuli took a deep breath.
"Thank you, sister-in-law, for saving me."
There were still tears in the corners of her eyes, tears of surviving the disaster.
Song Jiuchi, who had recovered from his daze, also whispered his thanks, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
This was a heartfelt gratitude, and it was also the first time he called her sister-in-law, representing his recognition of Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan didn't pay attention to these. At this moment, her eyes fell with pity on the pile of mud and rocks, where several lives were left behind.
If she had persisted a little longer at that time, this could have been avoided. After all, she was just hoping for a lucky break.
Old Madam Song and Miss Song were working like crazy to help dig the soil, and this time the officers had no time to deal with them.
It was not until this moment that Song Chen realized that there was one person missing. He looked around and asked, "Where is Aunt Duan?"
"But...it might have been suppressed."
Chen Qian's face was pale, bloodless, and his eyes were dull as he knelt on the ground, frightened out of his wits.
"It's you, you must have killed her!"
Madam Song Er suddenly stepped forward and punched and kicked Chen Qian in disgust, yelling.
"What will we do if you kill her? What will we eat?"
Jiang Wan only felt mocked. A second ago, she thought that Second Madam Song had some humanity, but it turned out that she was just afraid that Madam Duan would die and no one would give them new food.
If Aunt Duan knew this cruel truth, I wonder if she would still be willing to sacrifice herself for them.
Even the man she loved deeply only asked her a question without showing any sadness.
"stop!"
Xu Wei grabbed the crazy Madam Song Er and protected Shen Qian. He was a little far away from Shen Qian just now, otherwise he would have saved Shen Qian.
"This is our family affair, none of your business!"
Song Chen gritted his teeth, anger rising in his eyes. One of his women killed another woman, but there were other men protecting his wife.
"It's wrong for you to hit people."
Xu Wei narrowed his eyes, "What happened just now was an accident, it has nothing to do with her."
"Whether it's unexpected or not is up to us, so mind your own business!"
Song Chen clenched his fists and glared at Chen Qian fiercely, frightening Chen Qian so much that her body was shaking.
"Everyone, keep quiet. If anyone dares to cause trouble, I will kill him!"
Ren Bang was waving a whip in his hand. He was very angry at the moment and would beat anyone he caught.
Facing his angry gaze, no one dared to make a noise anymore. They just quieted down and helped clear the road.
After finishing his work, Ren Bang wrote down the names of the deaths and their causes in a notebook with a gloomy face. A total of eight people died this time.
There was one officer and seven prisoners, and some others were slightly injured. He took note of it and later worked with the officers to bury the dead on the spot.
Standing there, Jiang Wan felt sad, and Song Jiuyuan on the side suddenly spoke.
"You...don't blame yourself. Their deaths have nothing to do with you."
On the contrary, Jiang Wan's previous reminder to everyone had actually saved a lot of people.
He was worried that Jiang Wan would not understand, so he tried to comfort her.
Jiang Wan shook her head, her eyes complicated, "I'm not blaming myself, I just feel that life is too fragile."
In the face of natural disasters, life is like a fragile porcelain doll, extremely fragile.
Song Jiuyuan did not refute this, but just looked at the person in front of him with complicated eyes.
"Mom, I was scared to death just now."
Song Jiuli hugged Madam Song and cried loudly. She was so frightened just now that she forgot about being sad.
Looking at the newly built graves, he began to cry with lingering fear.
"Don't be afraid, Mom is here."
Madam Song patted Song Jiuli's back to comfort her. Besides them, there were also relatives crying.
Some people hated Ren Bang in their hearts, because it was because he insisted on leaving that this happened, but no one dared to do so and could only swallow their anger in silence.
After dealing with the bodies of these people, they had to continue their journey. The road had been cleared, so everyone just had to leave.
However, the ground was still muddy, and everyone was falling and banging along the way, creating a somewhat depressing atmosphere.
Jiang Wan was sharp-eyed and noticed that Chen Qian was crying and following Xu Wei, and Xu Wei would gently comfort her from time to time.
But Song Chen was so silent that he didn't say anything. He just stared at them with heavy eyes.
Jiang Wan: ...
My goodness, Aunt Duan died, and Chen Qian took over personally?
Jiang Wan was in a complicated mood, and Song Jiuli was full of curiosity, "Sister-in-law, why is Chen Qian so close to a man outside her family?"
She hated Chen Qian, so naturally, like Jiang Wan, she paid attention to Chen Qian's every move.
"You really want to know?"
Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows and said mercilessly: "I'm afraid you'll want to vomit after you know it."
Song Jiuli: ...
She blinked at Madam Song, and Madam Song sighed softly.
"Li'er, don't ask so many questions, just take care of our own business."
"All right."
Song Jiuli then shut up. After experiencing that scary thing, everyone was still scared.
They took every few steps carefully. This place was actually not far from the village. Ren Bang planned to take everyone to the village to rest. Jiang Wan noticed that something was wrong with Xu Wei.
