Chapter 82 Bones
There are even plenty of fresh vegetables. Some people in the village are cultivating their own land, which will provide some relief for the teachers.
Chen Zhuyi has refused many times, but recently everyone's enthusiasm has become more and more difficult to refuse.
"There's something missing in here..." Zhou Siwei leaned over and pointed at the pieces of bacon hanging there.
Zhou Siwei's voice softened after being glared at by Chen Zhu, and he muttered, "Two of the best quality pieces are missing. I've been eyeing them for a long time."
Before he could even eat it, it was snatched away by some unknown cat or dog!
Ye Xumei heard it clearly, and now his heart was even colder. He fumbled to take out the key and stuffed it into Chen Zhuyi's hand: "I must never touch this key."
"As for the things you lost... let's first see what was stolen. If you really encountered a thief, I will definitely prove myself." Ye Xumei could only make a serious promise.
But she herself was also unsure and panicked.
"It's a rare opportunity for you to come here. If I embarrass you for such trivial matters, I would be a complete jerk." Chen Zhuyi took the key and looked at Ye Xumei: "I believe you. The most urgent thing is for us to find the murderer together!"
As she spoke, she placed her hand on Ye Xumei's palm, using some force.
The cold key was almost pressing against Ye Xumei's hand, finally calming her down. She pursed her lips, wanting to smile, but couldn't: "Maybe I've been through this too many times before..."
Whenever there was any disturbance at home, without anyone instigating it, it would be her fault, with her father punishing her for no reason and the noisy sounds in the house.
All of this made Ye Xumei subconsciously suspicious of the people around him.
But it was at this moment that she realized how wrong she was. From the very beginning, Chen Zhuyi was the relative she chose, but they didn't even have a little trust in him!
"I know everything, but I won't doubt you because you are my most important relative." Chen Zhuyi gave Ye Xumei a hug and held her tightly.
Zhou Siwei didn't understand why, but still came over and hugged them both reluctantly. Sui Sui also wagged his tail anxiously, circled around them, and barked from time to time.
After calming Ye Xumei down, Chen Zhuyi patted Sui Sui's little head and said, "It's all your fault. If you had just started yelling and let me find the murderer, we wouldn't be in this situation!"
The puppy whimpered twice in grievance, circled twice, and then squatted obediently in its sleeping place.
The three of them found a place to sit down and began to discuss the matter. Chen Zhuyi analyzed the situation first: "With Sui Sui guarding here, anyone who can take advantage of the opportunity to come in must be familiar with us and not have much hostility."
Moreover, they took food and grain coupons secretly. Although it was not a big deal, it was still disgusting.
"I thought of a possible person..." After hearing her analysis, Ye Xumei immediately thought of Liu Zhaodi.
Ye Xumei told Chen Zhuyi that Liu Zhaodi asked her to drink with her, and her expression looked a little ugly.
"I thought it was suspicious that she suddenly asked me out for drinks! She's usually so stingy and even steals my things, so why would she suddenly be willing to buy me some alcohol?"
The more he talked, the more he felt it was her. Ye Xumei felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
For this kind of people.
She doesn't have any big tricks, and she can't do things like killing, arson, or murdering others. She can only disgust people with such small things.
Chen Zhu looked at Ye Xumei's uncomfortable expression and was about to continue speaking when there was a knock on the door.
When Zhou Siwei heard what Ye Xumei said, he knew who the murderer was. He was so anxious that he scratched his head. But when Chen Zhu glared at him, he obediently went to open the door.
It was Huo Jinzhi and Liu Zhaodi. No one knew how they got together. At this moment, Liu Zhaodi reached out and pinched the corner of his clothes, and her affectionate eyes fell on Huo Jinzhi several times.
"We just met at the door." Huo Jinzhi had a strong desire to survive. He quickly distanced himself from Liu Zhaodi and walked quickly inside.
Liu Zhaodi seemed not to notice his alienation, but instead trotted after him, trying her best to stay close to Huo Jinzhi.
"What are you doing here?" Chen Zhu raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Zhaodi.
As soon as they had their suspicions, she came to them on her own initiative, but she didn't look guilty. Could it be that they guessed wrong?
"I came to see if there was anything I could do to help. By the way, I also found some food for Sui Sui." Liu Zhaodi shook her pockets and threw the bones on the ground.
Suisui is still young, and Chen Zhuyi usually feeds him meat and milk. But now he smelled it and started to eat it, which was rare, and seemed to like the taste very much.
Huo Jinzhi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw its behavior. How could a puppy that was raised with meat like these broken bones?
But Liu Zhaodi also had good intentions, and their questioning at this moment would be embarrassing for her.
"As long as he likes to eat it, I will prepare more delicious food for him in the future. Just give me one when he gives birth. Such a beautiful puppy, the babies born will definitely be very good-looking." Liu Zhaodi took the initiative to reach out and touch Sui Sui.
This little guy who never lets anyone touch him now wagged his tail affectionately, obviously being closer to her.
Chen Zhuyi frowned but said nothing. A group of people were sitting here, but the atmosphere was obviously awkward and no longer as casual as before.
"The weather is so nice today, we can help you clean up. We all know you have the most delicious food here, so just share some with us."
Liu Zhaodi looked at the sheets and quilt covers hanging in the yard and couldn't wait to help. Her tone was eager and her eyes were expectant. She just wanted to have a good meal here, which was not a big deal.
Others might not refuse. Even if it was because she worked hard to deliver bones to Sui Sui, providing a meal was not a big deal for Shen Zhuyi.
But the other party was Liu Zhaodi, and with Ye Xumei's words in mind, she didn't want to save any face at all.
"If you say so, I wouldn't dare let Sui Sui eat your food."
When Chen Zhu saw Sui Sui still holding the bone in its mouth, he helplessly tapped it on the head.
Sui Sui, who would have obeyed immediately in the past, hesitated now. He struggled and took two bites before sitting next to Chen Zhuyi with a bone in his mouth.
But the pair of dark dog eyes looked aggrieved and were still looking at the food over there.
"We are all educated youth who came here together. We should help each other. It was my fault before, but Huang Cuicui is dead. Are you going to leave me alone?"
Liu Zhaodi spoke in a pitiful manner. Her family was already quite sympathetic, so she was not at all uncomfortable playing the victim, and her skin seemed to have become thicker.
