Chapter 95 The real murderer is found

When Xiao Wu and Bei Bei saw Xia Juanjuan was about to go out, they immediately followed her.

"Mom, Beibei wants to visit too!"

"Mom, Xiao Wu wants to go too!"

Xiao Wen was a little older, and he didn't feel comfortable chasing Xia Juanjuan to visit relatives. He carried his small backpack and said, "I... I'm going to the commune to feed the wild boars."

Qingshui Village unanimously voted to raise the two little wild boars that Xia Juanjuan brought back from the mountains last time.

Qingshui Village has to buy piglets to raise every spring. A piglet costs tens of dollars, or it has to be exchanged for food of the same value. With these two little wild boars, this expense can be saved.

Li Zhan: "..."

Is he a monster? Should everyone avoid him?

Xia Juanjuan said, "All three of you stay at home and don't run around! Xiaowen, have you memorized all the words I asked you to memorize the day before yesterday? Xiaowu, Beibei, have you written your names?"

When the three kids heard this, they all lowered their heads guiltily.

Although at first they were excited when they got the paper and pen, thinking that they were going to start studying.

But what child doesn’t love to play? After a few days of novelty, their attention will be attracted by other things and their enthusiasm will not be so high!

The three little guys looked up at Lizhan timidly, and then, under the leadership of Xiaowen, they went back to the house, hiding far away from Lizhan, took out their textbooks, paper and pens, and started doing their homework.

Xia Juanjuan winked at Lizhan, telling him to take this opportunity to quickly mend his relationship with the three brats, and then went out.

Lizhan scratched his head, looked back at the three little guys who were still distant and afraid of him, sighed, and resignedly walked to the table to see what they were writing, waiting for an opportunity to win back their trust and closeness.

What Xiaowen had to memorize were common things in the countryside, about ten words in total, such as "wheat, cabbage, chicken, eggs, dumplings", etc., which were quite down-to-earth.

Xiaowen actually recited most of it silently, and spent the rest of the time biting the tip of the pen in distress.

Xiao Wu and Bei Bei have their own names written here. Bei Bei was ignorant and played with the pen more than studied, but he also wrote his own name crookedly.

Xiao Wu was in a worse situation, as his name had too many strokes and he could never remember it. When he saw his sister Bei Bei, who was one year younger than him, could already write his name, he couldn't help but burst into tears: "I don't want to be called Xiao Wu anymore! It's too hard to write! Wow..."

Li Zhan: "..."

Can you still cry about this?

He walked over and picked up Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu was so frightened that he stopped crying and just stared at him in a daze.

"Let me take a look. Hmm... the word 'Wu'. Look, does it look like a person holding a spear? This is the head, although it's a little flat. The hand is stretched out, and the spear is a little bent. Below this is the body of the little man..."

Xiao Wu's gaze shifted from Li Zhan's face to the paper. Through Li Zhan's explanation, the originally complicated character "Wu" unexpectedly became much more interesting, and it seemed as if he could remember what it looked like all at once!

"I...I want to write too!" Xiao Wu was so anxious that he took the pen and started to draw a little man holding a spear. Even Xiao Wen and Bei Bei were attracted.

Li Zhan smiled and said, "Look, you can write it now, right? The word 'Wu' means strong and powerful. When little Wu grows up, he can protect his mother! Why don't you like it?"

When Xiao Wu heard this, his eyes were full of stars: "Really? Then I will call you Xiao Wu from now on! I will protect my mother when I grow up!"

When Beibei heard this, she was so jealous that she didn't care about being scared. She ran to Lizhan, grabbed Lizhan's fingers with her little hands and shook them, and asked eagerly: "Then...what about Beibei? Is Beibei's name also very powerful?"

Lizhan's heart almost melted when he was stared at by this little guy. He immediately picked up Beibei and sat her on his lap, saying with a smile: "Beibei... um, it's a small shell on the beach. It's very pretty, like stars in the sea! It means Beibei will be very beautiful when she grows up!"

Xiao Wen blushed, and at this moment, she no longer had the courage to protect her younger brothers and sisters. She also asked expectantly: "Then... what's my name?"

"Wen means smart and knowledgeable. Xiaowen will definitely be able to go to university in the future..."

After a while, the three little guys forgot their fear of Li Zhan and insisted on pestering him to tell them stories.

When Xia Juanjuan arrived at Aunt Wu's house, she first asked with a smile, "Is Aunt Wu home?"

Aunt Wu came out in response, and when she saw Xia Juanjuan, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Hey, it's Juanjuan? Come in quickly!"

Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "I used soybeans to sprout some beans a few days ago, but I didn't pay attention to the quantity, so I sprouted a lot more. I can't eat them all, and it would be a waste to leave them alone, so I sent some to you, Auntie."

Aunt Wu was embarrassed: "Hey, these bean sprouts are so fresh! I'm so embarrassed to always eat your food."

Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "That's not the case! It doesn't matter who I give it to. Besides, didn't you give me some dried chilies last time, Aunt Wu?"

After talking about a few more casual things, Xia Juanjuan turned the topic back to the question she wanted to ask.

But she certainly couldn't just ask if there were any injured men in the village, so she moved her neck and said with a smile, "Oh! I got a stiff neck last night and my neck hurts so much. I was thinking of going to the village doctor Liu to ask him to prescribe a plaster, but I was afraid he would be too busy to take care of my minor illness..."

Aunt Wu thought for a moment and said with a smile, "You can go ahead. He's too idle! I saw him chatting in the village last night!"

Xia Juanjuan frowned slightly. Are you too idle? It's impossible not to see a doctor for such a serious injury, right?

Or they don’t dare to watch it in their own commune for fear of being exposed.

This further confirmed that he was from this commune! She must know him!

Just when I was worrying about how to ask next, Aunt Wu suddenly came closer and said in a low voice: "I want to tell you something, please don't think I'm gossiping..."

Xia Juanjuan smiled when she heard this and said, "Look at what you said, Auntie. Don't I know what kind of person you are? You wouldn't spread anything that you're not sure about, right?"

Aunt Wu smiled and said, "That's true."

Then he continued in a low voice: "This matter is related to your sister-in-law. Early this morning, someone saw your sister-in-law Li Qiaoqiao sneaking to the educated youth site, and then took a few dirty men's clothes home to be washed! I heard from those educated youth that the clothes seemed to belong to an educated youth named Xu Jiayuan!"

Xia Juanjuan's heart trembled!

Xu Jiayuan?!

The original owner was tricked by him into running away from marriage and was almost raped by him, but after she traveled through time, except for the time when she ran into him and Li Qiaoqiao in the grove, she had no more interactions with him.

Therefore... the criminals who attacked her that she filtered into her mind were all those scoundrels in the village, and she never thought of Xu Jiayuan!

But now that I think about it, that voice... isn't it very similar to the voice of Xu Jiayuan in my memory!

Aunt Wu continued:

"You said your sister-in-law is funny, a virgin girl, but she is trying to get a cold shoulder. She went there several times, but was blocked outside by Xu Zhiqing and refused to come in.

This time it seems that Xu Zhiqing was not feeling well and went to the county town overnight. Your sister-in-law broke into his house and took his dirty clothes home to wash!

I almost died of laughter after hearing this. She was still making up rumors about you, and she hasn't even cleaned up her own mess yet! I think she is bringing shame to us rural people! Alas! I heard some gossip in the village because she is your sister-in-law, so I stepped forward to stop her. But what she said was also true, how could I stop it? The whole commune has spread it..."

Xia Juanjuan didn't care about Li Qiaoqiao's reputation at all, she grasped the key point sharply.

Xu Zhiqing was not feeling well and went to the county seat overnight...
