After hearing what Chen Guihua said, Niu Tiezhu didn't dare to say a word. With his ability, how could he be a good student? But he didn't have to go out to work. As for farming, he had his own ways to deal with it.
Niu Tiezhu smiled and continued to eat with his head down.
After dinner, Chen Guihua lit the kerosene lamp for Niu Chunsheng and Niu Xiahe to read, but he also reminded them not to read for too long as it would hurt their eyes.
After washing the dishes, she sat on a bamboo chair in the yard to enjoy the cool air and listen to the quarrel next door.
Although she didn't hear clearly the content of the quarrel between Niu Fugui and Liu Xiaofen, she heard a few key points. Niu Fugui was forbidden to have any contact with Liu Damei, and Liu Damei's son was sent back to her own home. If he did not agree, he would be divorced.
In order to keep Liu Xiaofen, Niu Fugui had no choice but to agree. As for the matter of the underpants, he did not explain it further, or he was unable to explain it.
Chen Guihua waved a palm-leaf fan, a smile on her lips, wondering if they would help Niu Dali to deceive her. In her previous life, it was because of their deception that she mistakenly believed in Niu Dali. If Niu Chunsheng had not come to tell her the truth before his death, she would have been taken advantage of again.
There weren't many entertainment options in the countryside at night, so Chen Guihua went to bed early.
At this time, Niu Dali also got on the bed. He hugged Shen Guihua from behind, but Shen Guihua pushed his hands away. "Dirty!"
Niu Dali sniffed his arm and said, "It's not dirty. I've already taken a shower."
"I'm sleepy and want to sleep, don't touch me!"
This was the first time since their marriage that Chen Guihua treated Niu Dali with such a cold face and refused to let him touch her.
Niu Dali felt a little disappointed, but he didn't think too much about it. He just thought that Chen Guihua was a little tired after going out today, so he turned over and fell asleep with his back to Chen Guihua.
The next day.
After drinking his porridge in the morning, Niu Dali hurried to the town. He wanted to find Liu Damei to find out what happened. He hadn't slept well the whole night because of the underpants.
When he entered the ward, the nurse was removing the IV drip from Liu Damei.
"Well, family member of the patient, the patient can be discharged. Please go to the front desk to complete the discharge procedures."
"Oh, okay, let's pack up and go do the paperwork."
The nurse didn't think much about it. She put a cotton ball on the needle hole on the back of Liu Damei's hand and left the ward.
After the nurse left, Liu Damei smiled charmingly and said, "Da Li, you came really early. Did you miss me?"
Niu Dali looked at Liu Damei with a dark face and said in a low voice, "What is going on between you and Niu Fugui?"
When Liu Damei heard what Niu Dali said, she looked puzzled and said, "What can come between me and wealth? Don't you know it all?"
Niu Dali tried hard to suppress his anger and looked at Liu Damei, "How did the underwear Niu Fugui was wearing appear in your backyard?"
Liu Damei thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the wind was too strong and it just happened to blow into my backyard. Besides, I haven't been home these few days, so what could have happened?"
Liu Damei was telling the truth, but the seeds of doubt had already been planted in Niu Dali's heart, and he thought about the problem much more carefully.
"But Niu Fugui's pants are covered in mud. It doesn't look like they were just blown into your yard by the wind. It looks like they've been left there for a while. Between you..."
Niu Dali didn't say anything else, but Liu Damei could already hear that he suspected she was having an affair with Niu Fugui.
"Niu Dali," Liu Damei scolded, "I've slept with you so many times, and you actually dared to suspect that I'm having an affair with your brother!"
After saying that, Liu Damei burst into tears. "You heartless person, I had an abortion for you, and you actually still doubt me, wuwu..."
When Liu Damei saw that Niu Dali was not the same as before, he went up to comfort her as soon as she cried, and then increased the dosage.
"If you don't believe me, I won't live anymore, wuwu..."
As she spoke, Liu Damei made a gesture as if she was going to hit her head against the wall.
Niu Dali, who was quick-witted, quickly stepped forward and hugged Liu Damei. "Don't cry, I was just asking. I didn't say anything about what you and Niu Fugui did."
Niu Dali finally softened his heart.
After seeing Niu Dali give in, Liu Damei began to ask him in detail about the underpants, because she was also very curious. There hadn't been any particularly strong wind in the past few days, so how did the underpants end up in her backyard?
Niu Dali did not hide anything and immediately told Chen Guihua everything he saw when he and Chen Guihua passed by her house on their way home.
When Liu Damei heard her flower pot shattered, she exclaimed, "Wait a minute..."
Niu Dali paused and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"You just said that the underpants were found in the flowerpot in my backyard?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Liu Damei opened her eyes wide and asked again, "You said, my flower pot is broken?"
"Yes! It was broken by the big yellow dog."
The expression on Liu Damei's face became increasingly grim.
"Did you find anything else besides the pants? Like a small bag or something?"
Niu Dali tried hard to recall the past and shook his head, "Just my underpants."
"Are you sure it's just a pair of underpants?" Liu Damei was unwilling to believe the result and asked again.
Niu Dali scratched the back of his head and said seriously, "There's really nothing else. My Guihua was watching nearby. Apart from the underwear, I didn't see anything else suspicious."
It's over, the money is gone!
Liu Damei couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Big sister, what's wrong with you?" Niu Dali took Liu Damei into his arms and comforted her, "I don't doubt that you and Niu Fugui are together. Please don't cry, okay?"
Liu Damei hugged Niu Dali, patted his back hard, and sobbed, "You don't understand. I buried all the money you gave me under the flowerpot, thinking I would save it after I was discharged from the hospital. Now, now, wuwu..."
When Niu Dali heard what Liu Damei said, his brows furrowed. He had cheated this money from Chen Guihua to give to Liu Damei. He thought that after cheating more money, he would divorce Chen Guihua and live a good life with Liu Damei.
Now, the money is gone.
So, where does the money go?
A bold guess emerged in Niu Dali's mind.
"Do you think it's possible that Fugui was too anxious when he was stealing the money and was discovered by the big yellow dog, and then in order to escape, he dropped the pants that the big yellow dog had bitten on him?"
When Niu Dali finished saying this, Liu Damei also thought in this direction.
She nodded at Niu Dali and said, "I think what you said makes sense. He usually likes to ask you for money. Maybe he's short of money again and that's why he's set his sights on me."
The two looked at each other seriously and nodded.
At this moment, Niu Fugui, who was sitting at home, sneezed, "Who on earth is this bastard cursing me behind my back?"
He fanned himself with a palm-leaf fan, turned over and continued to sleep on the bamboo lounge chair.
On the other side, Chen Guihua started to think about starting a small business. After all, in her previous life, she had seen how others made money, and she had taken some notes. She planned to make some money to improve her life.
