Zhou Luancheng and Zhou Shixun, one soft and one hard, one had a calm and gentle attitude, the other had a cold and sharp look in his eyes. Their aura was so oppressive that Ge Jun's heart was pounding. He originally wanted to sit down, but stood up before his butt even touched the stool.
Old Lady Ge also stood up and quickly pushed Ge Jun: "What else are you hiding? Just tell me everything. It's just this child. Are you hiding something else? Besides, we spent a thousand dollars on this child. We are in debt because of the fortune teller. Just tell me the truth. When we find the fortune teller, maybe we can get the thousand dollars back."
Ge Jun didn't want to talk about the thousand yuan. Although he still owed the debt, there was a hidden story behind it.
But the old lady just wanted to bring it up, and his face turned blue and red, which looked very ugly.
Old Lady Ge suddenly felt that she was in the right: "The fortune teller said that your child was dumb, but blessed and could bring us good luck. He also asked us for a thousand yuan. That was a thousand yuan. My son borrowed it by scraping together money from everywhere. Who knew it was a scam? We will cooperate with you if we know about it. When we find the dead fortune teller, can you give us the money back?"
Zhou Shixun gave him a cold look, which instantly frightened Mrs. Ge so much that she dared not speak anymore. She turned her head and glared at her son, signaling him to speak quickly.
Before Ge Jun could say anything, Liu Cuixia rushed to speak: "He said he wanted 1,000 yuan, so we gave him 1,000 yuan. He only has one child, what else can we buy?"
Zhou Shixun looked at her deeply, then raised his eyes to look at the apricot tree in the corner of the yard, without saying anything. However, it made Liu Cuixia feel uneasy.
Zhou Luancheng also followed Zhou Shixun's gaze and looked over there, but he was wondering, what was so good about a tree that was about to die of disease?
Ge Jun felt uneasy and wanted to speak, but Liu Cuixia reached out and patted his wrist.
The two of them were standing close to each other, and Liu Cuixia's movements were very small, so if you didn't pay attention, it would be difficult to notice her.
But the people in front of them were Zhou Shixun's brothers. Even though Zhou Shixun was looking at the apricot tree, he also caught Liu Cuixia's small movements from the corner of his eyes. He said coldly: "What is buried under this apricot tree? Luancheng, go call the police."
Zhou Luancheng was surprised. How could his elder brother be sure that there was something buried under the apricot tree?
Sheng An Ning just felt strange that an apricot tree might be sick. Now after hearing what Zhou Shixun said, her doubts were resolved. At the same time, she was also curious, how did he know?
Ge Jun and Liu Cuixia were completely panicked. They looked at each other and were at a loss as to what to do.
Seeing Zhou Luancheng turning around to leave the yard, Liu Cuixia hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, I'm telling you, can you please not dig it out?"
Zhou Luancheng retracted his steps and turned around.
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Liu Cuixia gritted her teeth and said, "The fortune teller said that if our family wants to change our fortune, we must not only have that child, but also bury something in the yard, under a lush tree. This thing will absorb the nutrients of the tree and change our family's fortune."
"Now the child is returned to you, you can't take this thing away, it's not something we stole."
Zhou Luancheng frowned: "You guys believe such a ridiculous thing?"
Liu Cuixia was dissatisfied: "How is it ridiculous? We saw that thing moving by itself in the bucket. We threw some meat in it and it disappeared in a moment."
Sheng An Ning was surprised again. She didn't expect Liu Cuixia to believe this. Suddenly she understood why so many people were deceived. It was not because they were not smart, but because the scammers hit the nail on the head.
Just like Liu Cuixia now, she feels that all the roughness in her life is due to bad luck, and Li Ergeng just happened to hit the nail on the head about all their misfortunes, and then, she lets Li Ergeng lead her by the nose.
Old Lady Ge didn't expect such a thing to happen. She stared at Ge Jun, then looked at Liu Cuixia: "What was buried? You can believe such nonsense? They are just lying to you. You really have no brains. You can't see this?"
It is obvious that these are definitely Liu Cuixia's ideas. His eyes are like poison, and he wants to dig two holes in Liu Cuixia's body. He is such a loser: "It's your idea again, right? You don't lay eggs yourself, but you find excuses. Look at what Ge Jun has become because of you. What did you bury? Why don't you dig it out and hand it over to Zhou Gongan."
"You are such a brainless thing, you are going to break up this family."
Then he glared at Ge Jun: "You are also an idiot. Who is the boss in this family?"
Zhou Shixun frowned and looked at Grandma Ge coldly. Grandma Ge shut up instantly and dared not speak anymore. She just glared at Liu Cuixia with dissatisfaction.
No wonder every time he was asked to divorce Liu Cuixia and find an older girl to have a child, he remained silent, as if he agreed, but also seemed to disagree.
It turns out it was all Liu Cuixia’s fault!
Since it was certain that something was buried under the tree, Zhou Luancheng asked, "Do you guys dig it out yourself, or should I ask the police to dig it out?"
Originally, as Mo Mo's uncle, he should have avoided the case, but he was eager to find Mo Mo at that time, so he did not avoid it. Now that the case is under normal investigation, it has been handed over to other people.
Therefore, it was impossible for him and Zhou Shixun to start digging.
Ge Jun's face turned pale. If the police came, his affairs would be reported to his workplace. Wouldn't he be laughed at? He couldn't even hold his head up in his workplace. If everyone knew that he had been practicing feudal superstition in order to get promoted, how could he train apprentices in the future?
Thinking of this, he quickly said, "I'll do it. I'll dig it."
When Liu Cuixia heard that Ge Jun was going to dig, she rushed over like crazy and blocked Ge Jun's way: "What are you going to dig? You can't dig. Didn't you see that the fortune teller's words came true? If that thing is buried under the apricot tree, the apricot tree will be absorbed by it and slowly wither and die. When these spiritual energies slowly gather together, we will be blessed. Do you want to spend your whole life in the workshop, dealing with those machines every day?"
"Ge Jun, can you be more promising?"
Ge Jun pushed Liu Cuixia away and said, "Are you crazy? It's already this hour, and you're still talking about this? Don't you think we're embarrassed enough?"
He pushed the man aside, picked up the shovel leaning against the wall, and started digging under the withered apricot tree.
After a few shovelfuls, a strong fishy smell spread out, like the stench of rotting fish that had been left for a long time.
Sheng An Ning couldn't help but frown. The smell was similar to that of a highly decomposed corpse.
After digging a few more times, a plastic woven bag was exposed, and the stench became even stronger...
