Chapter 019: Solved? Unsolved?
When Xie Jian blew out the lights and went to bed, he saw, to his rarity, that Shen Heng was not asleep. This woman had been sleeping very well recently, falling asleep almost as soon as she hit the bed. He didn't know what she was thinking tonight, but she looked extremely excited.
It was not until midnight that Shen Heng felt a little sleepy. It turned out that it was not advisable to think too much before going to bed, as it would cause insomnia.
What’s even more annoying is that I feel the urge to urinate, even though it’s just a little bit. But I don’t want to be woken up by the urge while I’m asleep, so I just go and do it.
The thing that Chen Heng was most unaccustomed to when she came here was going to the toilet. It was really hard to describe.
I quietly got up from the bed and looked at the urinal beside the bed. Yes, I read that right, it was a urinal, and it was a shallow one at that. Forget it, I decided to go to the toilet outside.
Pushing the door open, the cold wind blew outside. It was too cold. Shen Heng closed it again and glanced at the urinal. She was confused. Did she understand? Did she not understand?
The original owner and Xie Jian had been married for two years, and no matter how awkward some things were, they were used to them. No one liked each other anyway, so they just did their own things, but she was not used to it.
"What do you want?" Xie Jian's impatient voice came. He couldn't stand the noise when he was sleeping.
The corner of Shen Heng's mouth twitched. She would never use the urinal while Xie Jian was awake. "I'm going to the toilet."
Xie Jianzhong closed his eyes. Has this woman been eating too much lately? She always has to go to the toilet at night.
The moonlight was silvery bright, and the night was extremely cold. Shen Heng was so cold that she clasped her hands to her chest and shivered as she went to the toilet at the back. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that some of the cabbages piled in the corner had fallen to the ground. She and her sister-in-law Xia had piled them up neatly layer by layer after drying them in the sun today.
After all, it was food, and it would not stay there after being dropped on the ground overnight. Chen Heng huddled up and went to pick it up.
Just as she had picked up two vegetables, she heard a voice outside the wall: "What are you afraid of? She's a widow with a child. How dare she scream? Isn't she afraid of being seen by her child?"
Is this the sound of fighting?
"Aren't there still Xie Jian and his wife?" another voice whispered.
"I can knock Xie Jian down with one hand, and as for his wife, she's as stupid as a pig." Dou said proudly, "I can coax her into following me after a few tries."
"Oh, you're capable. Are you really okay?"
"You're too timid. This family has always been plagued by bad luck, so when something happens to them, others think it's normal. This time they're going against my uncle again, insisting on selling the house and refusing to move out of town. They brought this upon themselves."
"Then we have to have some fun tonight. Hehe, why hasn't Sheng come out yet?"
"What's the rush? If you go in now, that bitch from the Xia family will struggle a bit, and it will be your turn soon."
It was cold, but Shen Heng felt cold from head to toe. She suddenly looked at Xia's tightly closed door and shouted, "Xie Jian." She quickly rushed to the door and kicked it with her leg. The door was kicked open easily.
In the darkness, a man covered Xia's mouth with one hand and was pulling her clothes with the other. Xia was in tears at this time, but she didn't dare to move.
There was a sudden commotion and the man turned around in horror.
Xie Min, who was fast asleep in the other small bed, was also awakened. Rubbing his eyes, he looked at the door. In the darkness, he recognized someone: "Auntie?" Then, upon seeing the strange man in his mother's bed, he shouted: "Who are you?"
As soon as the word "who" fell, the furious Shen Hengjing took the scissors from the sewing basket on the table, took two steps at a time, and stabbed the man's shoulder with one snip.
When the man screamed, Xie Jian had just entered Xia's room.
