Chapter 122 Let’s file a complaint
Hearing Old Lady Chen's question, Old Man Chen hurriedly explained, "Corpse is also called the living dead. The body cannot move and looks like a dead person, but it can still breathe."
"You're not a doctor, how do you know this is cadaveric syncope?"
"When I was a child, there was an old widower in the village. He had no children. One winter, he went to the mountains to collect firewood and fell from a rock, breaking his head.
After that, he never woke up again. He was said to be dead but still hanging on to his last breath, and he was said to be alive but showed no reaction to the outside world. I heard the older people call it corpse coma, and I remembered it."
Old Man Chen's fear disappeared. He raised his hand and pinched the man's face hard. "Look, old woman, even if I pinch him hard, he doesn't feel any pain."
After hearing his words, Old Lady Chen felt relieved. She took two steps forward and patted the man's face hard.
"Who are you, what are you doing here, talk..."
No matter how old lady Chen tormented him, the man didn't react at all.
Old man Chen tried to dissuade her, "Stop it, old woman! Even if you beat him to death, he won't react at all."
Old Lady Chen sneered, "As long as he doesn't do anything bad to us, I don't care whether he lives or dies."
Chen Ruolan also recovered from her shock, "Grandpa, Grandma, why is there a living dead person in my uncle's house?"
Old man Chen scratched his head and asked, "Maybe she's here to see that damn girl for medical treatment."
Old Mrs. Chen glared at her and said, "Don't make trouble with me. We have watched that little girl grow up since she was a child. How could we not know whether she can see a doctor or not?
In my opinion, that damn girl treating Mr. Fan was just a cover, there must be something fishy going on here."
Chen Ruolan nodded in agreement. "Grandma, I also think it's not that simple. Chen Qingqing has never left Nanshan Village, so how could she possibly treat someone? She must be lying!"
"Why did that damn girl lie? What was her purpose?" Old Mrs. Chen was puzzled.
Chen Ruolan looked at the man on the bed, and remembered that Chen Qingqing was able to dig ginseng. She seemed to know the truth.
"Grandma, I think this person must be related to Chen Qingqing's recent wealth."
Old Mrs. Chen frowned and thought for a moment, "Ruolan, you and I are thinking the same thing."
"What do you mean by this?" Old man Chen was confused and didn't understand.
Old Mrs. Chen half-closed her eyes, a mocking smile on her lips, "We were all deceived by that damn girl. She didn't dig the ginseng at all, she stole it."
"Impossible, Qing girl doesn't have the courage."
"She doesn't have the courage, so can you explain to me what's going on with this person?"
"I, I don't know." Old man Chen shook his head.
Old Lady Chen curled her lips and couldn't help but sneered as she analyzed, "If I'm not mistaken, the ginseng that Qing girl sold must have been picked by this young man.
The young man dug up ginseng and was seen by the dead girl. She was tempted by the wealth and wanted to keep it for herself, so she used sweet words to trick the man back home.
Find a way to kill him, and then bury him secretly in the dead of night when no one is around. That way, no one will know..."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Old Man Chen.
"If it's according to what you said, this man should have been dragged out and buried long ago. Why would he be left hanging here?
Besides, our boss is so courageous that he wouldn't even dare to kill a chicken. How could he dare to commit murder for money?"
Old Lady Chen gritted her teeth and pointed at him, "You, you are dumber than a pig, dumber than a donkey. The boss doesn't dare, but that damn girl is so hard and cruel. Is there anything she wouldn't dare to do?"
Ever since the family split up, the eldest brother has treated that dead girl's words as if they were an imperial decree. Whenever she farts, the eldest brother says it smells good.
As the saying goes, poverty breeds evil, and wealth breeds conscience. They are so poor that they can't even afford to eat, so what evil things can they not do? "
Seeing that the two people's analysis was very logical, Chen Ruolan also believed in her heart that Chen Qingqing was so bold as to kill and rob for her own selfish reasons.
If she reports this to the police, she will have to pay with her life...
Thinking of this, I felt a sense of pleasure in my heart.
"Grandma, if we didn't know about this, it would be fine. But now that we know, we can't just sit back and watch. Chen Qingqing actually murdered for money for a ginseng. She's completely unscrupulous and lawless."
Old Mrs. Chen nodded, her expression becoming serious. "Ruolan, you're right. We can't pretend we don't know about this."
Seeing the two of them dithering, Old Man Chen became anxious and said, "Okay, old woman, let's not bother with this trivial matter. Before they come back, I will break the lock and we can quickly move our things home!"
"Wait a moment, let me think about it."
"Old woman, what else is there to think about?" Old man Chen stamped his feet anxiously.
Chen Ruolan thought of Chen Qingqing asking her to crawl like a dog in public, and she felt so angry that her teeth itched. How could moving such a small thing erase the humiliation she had suffered?
That damn girl must suffer and die a miserable death.
A fierce look flashed in Chen Ruolan's eyes, "Grandpa, Grandma, we have to report it to the police."
Old Man Chen waved his hands when he heard this. "No, no, Ruolan, no matter what, your uncle has been good to you since you were a child. We can't report it to the authorities. If we do, your uncle and his family will be doomed."
"Grandpa, if we don't report this to the authorities, and someone exposes the truth, we'll be guilty of harboring a criminal, no less culpable than my uncle's family. Then, my father won't be eligible to take the college entrance exam again, and we won't be able to bring honor to the Chen family."
"This..." Old man Chen hesitated.
Old Lady Chen frowned and rolled her eyes at him. "That's bullshit! Just listen to Ruolan and report it to the authorities. Not only will I vent my anger, but we can also make a fortune."
"Get rich, what kind of wealth?"
"You're such a blockhead! According to the laws of our Daning Dynasty, anyone who reports murder, robbery, or highway robbery will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, plus a year's tax exemption, and two dan of grain from the local government, as long as there's solid evidence."
Old Man Chen still felt sorry for him. "No matter what, the eldest son is still our son. If he is caught by the government, he will be sentenced to death!"
"Stop pretending to be such a good person. You treat him as your son, but does he treat you as his father? If he truly had a conscience, he wouldn't be disobedient and unfilial. He gives delicious food to this person and that person, but has he ever given it to you?
They are ungrateful, black-hearted wolves with no human feelings at all. They were unkind first, so they can't blame us for being unjust! "
"Yes, old woman, you are right. As the saying goes, a man who hates petty things is not a gentleman, and a man who is not vicious is not a man. Let's go to the county government tomorrow and sue them. Let them have delicious food instead of honoring us."
"No, we can't delay." Old Mrs. Chen shook her head. "There's no time to waste. Delaying will only lead to unexpected events. Let's go to the county government office now."
Old Man Chen was startled. "Don't worry, old lady. We're all here now, so we have to get something back!"
"Look at how little you have accomplished. You are really throwing away the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds. When the government comes and arrests them all, won't everything in the house belong to us?"
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"
"Okay, hurry up, go home and pack up, let's go to the county government to file a complaint."
