But he was still unwilling to give in, so he took his wallet and went to Lijia Village again.

Today happened to be the day of Zhu Hongping's burial. Apart from the Li family and the Ling family, and the team hired to carry the coffin, there were only a few guests attending the funeral, and they could be counted on two hands.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, the funeral was completed amid the deafening sound of firecrackers and crying.

After Li Li removed the hemp and ended mourning, Sun Siliang took her aside for questioning.

"We asked Yunyao about this. According to her, this wallet was stolen by your mother. Did you know about this?"

Seeing the wallet, Li Li flatly denied, "She lied. We came to borrow money and left after we borrowed the money. We didn't steal her wallet at all."

"But as far as we know, your mother has a habit of stealing. Is it possible that she stole the wallet but didn't tell you?"

Li Li was speechless.

Zhu Hongping did have a habit of stealing. He was used to being poor and uneducated, so he wanted to take any good things he saw to his own home. Even Li Zhijie was influenced by Zhu Hongping and ended up in this situation today.

There was a chance that Zhu Hongping really stole Yun Yao's wallet when she wasn't paying attention.

Two days later.

Yun Mo received news that the police classified the case as robbery resulting in death, thus Yun Yao's suspicion was ruled out.

This result is regrettable, but also expected.

Yun Mo had thought about asking Xu Gang to testify against Yun Yao, but unfortunately the alley was too dark at the time and Xu Gang was far away. He did not see Yun Yao attacking Zhu Hongping, nor did he know what weapon she used.

At this point, Zhu Hongping’s death remained unresolved.

Before leaving Jiang City for the provincial capital, Yun Yao specially made two cans of strawberry jam and brought them to the hospital for Yun Huan.

"When you finish these, my winter break will be almost over, so I'll make it for you then."

Long-term chemotherapy has left Yun Huan with a very poor appetite, and she often cannot eat. The strawberry jam is sweet and sour, which suits her taste very well. She immediately asked Yun Yao to scoop a spoonful for her to taste.

"It's so sweet, but not cloying. What did you put in it?"

"It's wild honey. I asked someone to buy it from the countryside. It has high nutritional value and a mellow taste."

Yun Huan couldn't help it and took another big bite.

Yun Yao smiled and closed the can of strawberry jam. "Okay, don't be greedy. Eat no more than two spoonfuls a day. The high sugar intake is not good for your condition. I will tell mom and ask her to control your mouth."

Yun Huan snorted, "You're so long-winded."

After staying in the ward for a while, seeing that it was almost time to leave, Yun Yao looked at Yun Huan lying on the bed with a gloomy look, "Xiao Huan, goodbye."

Yun Huan waved her hand without caring, "Go away, I'm going to sleep."

Yun Yao had a smile on her face, but that smile concealed some complex and difficult to understand emotions.

"Xiao Huan, I suddenly feel reluctant to leave you."

Yun Huan didn't understand the deeper meaning behind this and thought that Yun Yao was not used to going to the provincial capital alone.

"Sister, when I get better, I'll come to see you. I haven't been to the provincial capital yet. I heard it's much more prosperous and lively than Jiang City."

"It's okay, I'll help you check it and tell you then."

Before parting, the two showed a rare deep sisterly love.

—

The news that Yun Yao went to the provincial capital soon reached the ears of Yun Mo and Zeng Fang.

At that time, Zeng Fang was in the courtyard, watching the ten goslings that had hatched.

"She ran away so fast. I didn't have time to settle the score with her yet!"

Zeng Fang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and couldn't help but clasping her hands together, "That's right, my cousin and his friends are not vegetarians, humph, she's just waiting for bad luck."

"Be gentle, you've scared the idiots."

Zeng Fang looked down and found that the goslings that were playing and frolicking in the incubator had stopped moving and were all staring at her motionlessly.

Zeng Fang quickly lowered her voice and said, "I'm sorry, I scared you. I'll speak more quietly."

“Chirp, chirp.”

After the goslings quickly resumed their frolicking and playing, Zeng Fang suddenly asked Yun Mo in a low voice, "Momo, how many goslings are you going to give me to raise?"

Yun Mo pursed her lips at Erbai who was staring at the two of them, "Go ask her. As long as she's willing, I have no objection to you taking them all away."

Zeng Fang immediately ran to Erbai and said, "Erbai, Erbai, give me two of your geese to raise. I promise to treat them well."

Erbai didn't say a word. He tilted his neck and used his beak to trim the feathers on his wings, looking very proud.

Zeng Fang put forward the conditions, "Ten kilograms of shrimp, ten kilograms of dried fish, and ten kilograms of ryegrass, how about that?"

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Erbai seemed not to hear it. He turned his head and continued to preen the feathers on the other wing.

"Twenty catties! Twenty catties of each, plus twenty catties of fresh green leaves."

Erbai turned his head and said, "Haha."

make a deal.

Zeng Fang happily hugged Erbai's body, "Erbai, you are so nice!"

Erbai yelled twice in disgust, but did not struggle.

Zeng Fang quickly picked out two goslings, one male and one female.

However, the gosling was still small, and Zeng Fang was afraid that she could not raise it, so she marked it and left it with Yun Mo, and would take it back when it grew bigger.

During dinner in the evening, seeing that Ling Chuan seemed to be worried, Yun Mo casually asked about the situation of Ling Jiang's family.

Ling Chuan sighed, "Momo, my eldest sister-in-law is asking for a divorce. She thinks my eldest brother is an evil star and believes that Aunt Hongping's death was caused by my eldest brother. Under the pretext of mourning, she took Jiale to live in the countryside and refused to come back."

After planning for so long, Li Li finally fell into the trap and took the initiative to file for divorce. Yun Mo was naturally happy to hear this.

"What did Big Brother say?"

"My eldest brother didn't agree. My mother-in-law just passed away. If we get a divorce at this critical moment, outsiders will definitely gossip. Besides, the conditions proposed by my eldest sister-in-law are also very harsh. She wants to take Jiale away, and she also wants my eldest brother to transfer the house to Jiale's name. Otherwise, my eldest brother will have to pay for Jiale to build a new house in the countryside."

Yun Mo was not too surprised by the conditions proposed by Li Li.

Given Li Li's greed and shamelessness, she wouldn't find it strange even if someone asked for her courtyard house.

"Tell my eldest brother not to agree to the Li family's request yet. There is something I need to verify."

"What's up?"

"Do you think Chunhua and Jiale are like siblings?"

Seeing the man's confused expression, Yun Mo continued, "Both are children raised by the eldest sister-in-law. Chunhua is kind and sensible, and her personality is exactly the same as that of the eldest brother. However, Ling Jiale, whether in appearance or personality, is not at all like the eldest brother, and he doesn't even look like a child of the Ling family."

Having said that, even if Ling Chuan was a fool, he could understand what Yun Mo meant.

His stern face was filled with solemnity. "Momo, I know you don't like Jiale, but this concerns the reputation of your sister-in-law and your brother's dignity. You can't say anything."

"I didn't say anything nonsense, I just told you."
