Chapter 144: A Dead Duck's Mouth



Ever since Meng Jiefang and Meng Chengliang and their gang were shot, Meng Sheng and Feng Yijia felt that they had avenged themselves and had not paid any attention to the remaining family of three. They had never expected to hear such news.

In his previous life, Meng Chengyuan was still alive and well when Meng Sheng died.

When parents are alive, you have them to look after you. When parents are gone, you still have brothers and grandchildren to take care of you. Even if you are a fool, the stable and affluent life is envied by many people.

The rebirth of the two of them was like the flapping of butterfly wings, blowing everything away from its original trajectory.

This was the original world, but it was no longer the same after they were reborn.

After Feng Youcai finished speaking, he quickly retreated back into the copper coin.

It's snowing heavily and he will feel cold outside.

This is a memory of winter that is deeply rooted in his soul because he rarely wore warm clothes during his lifetime.

To put it simply, snow is a magical attack to him, and he feels cold when he sees snow.

Feng Yijia didn't want to go out and blow the cold wind for irrelevant people, so he continued to sit lazily in front of the stove and warm himself by the fire, occasionally roasting some peanuts, chestnuts, etc. to feed his mouth.

Meng Sheng thought that his third uncle had been a fool all his life and had never done anything to offend him before, so he finally left.

He was not a very diligent person and had complicated feelings towards that family. He just walked around the village, threw a note written with his left hand to the village chief's house, and then went back home to continue accompanying his wife.

A man who is in his forties but looks to be in his twenties, he has the energy of an old house on fire and the impulse of a young body. The two together make him want to be with his wife all the time.

The couple closed the door and cuddled together in the warm kitchen, not caring at all about the commotion in the village caused by the news that Meng Sheng had quietly given them.

Village chief Chen Hai was warming himself by the fire at home when he heard a clanging sound on the roof. He went out to see that someone was throwing stones at his roof. He was so angry that he was about to curse when he saw a piece of paper wrapped in stones.

He went forward to pick it up and took a look. His heart skipped a beat. Then he immediately braved the wind and snow to notify Meng Jiemin and several militiamen to go and check it out.

These troublesome things always cause him trouble. If someone really dies, he, as the new village chief, will definitely be the one to suffer.

Fearing that someone was playing a trick on them, the group did not go straight to Eagle Cliff, but went to Meng Chengyuan's house first, only to find the door closed and no one there.

After asking the neighbors next door, I found out that the fool had disappeared early in the morning. Meng Ping and his mother were afraid that something had happened, so they went out to look for him.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, and they split into two groups and hurried towards Eagle Cliff at a rapid pace.

Chen Hai took the two of them up the mountain to the top of the cliff, and Meng Jimin took the two of them to take a shortcut directly to the bottom of the cliff.

However, just as Chen Hai reached the intersection leading up the mountain, he met Chen Xiaocao, who was pretending to be looking for someone everywhere.

This woman had a good mentality. Seeing the panic on their faces, she smiled and greeted them, "Uncle Hai, why are you leading people in the snow?"

Chen Hai and Chen Xiaocao have the same ancestor, but now they are five generations apart and a little distant from each other, so he calls him uncle without any falsehood.

Chen Hai looked at the obviously much larger waders on Chen Xiaocao's feet and the obvious line of footprints behind her. He no longer had any hope and looked at his distant niece with complicated eyes. She was in her thirties but looked like she was only twenty-five or twenty-six.

Although she was not good-looking, she had few children. After marrying into the Meng family, she had the help of her parents-in-law and brothers, so she did not have to work as hard as other women in the village.

She doesn't have the weathering of a middle-aged woman, but rather has the charm of a mature woman.

It’s no wonder that some men would mess around with her regardless of her status.

He's just too cruel. Even if he divorced the idiot openly and married someone else, he wouldn't say anything.

After all, water flows to the low places and people go to the high places.

Although it's a bit immoral, it's understandable.

At the moment, he was quite thoughtful in doing bad things. A pair of big shoes covered all the footprints of others. But he was unlucky and was discovered and reported. His good days are over.

Chen Hai's mind was churning with thoughts, but he remained calm and said, "I heard Cheng Yuan is missing, so we came to help look for him."

Chen Xiaocao's eyes sparkled, and he thanked her gratefully: "Oh, sorry to bother you brothers.

In this freezing weather, you're still running around for my family's affairs."

After saying that, she complained again: "When I got up early in the morning, the child's father was still at home.

As a result, he disappeared while I was cooking.

This morning, Meng Ping and I searched the village extensively but couldn't find him. We don't know where he went.

Chen Hai ignored her and pointed at the Eagle Cliff in the distance, asking, "Have you searched the forest over there?"

Chen Xiaocao looked back at the footprints that were winding down the mountain and were still clearly visible. She secretly blamed these people for being nosy. It would only take a few hours at night, with heavy snow and strong winds, for all traces to be wiped out. It would be useless to do anything about it.

Now he could only grit his teeth and admit, "I've looked, but nothing!

I’m going to look elsewhere.”

Chen Hai: "Don't worry, human lives are at stake, I have already asked many villagers for help.

The snow is thick on the road now. It's not safe for you to walk around alone. We will look for it with you!"

Without solid evidence, Chen Hai could only make random excuses and keep an eye on the suspect. He couldn't let the suspect escape, as that would make him, the village chief, seem even more useless.

On the other side, not long after, Meng Jiemin and his party also saw the adulterer.

Meng Quan, an old bachelor in his thirties who has not yet married, crossed his hands in his sleeves to keep warm and walked in the snow in a mess.

This man is tall and strong, but he is not as calm as Chen Xiaocao, a woman.

When he suddenly saw Meng Jiemin and others, he was so scared that he turned around and wanted to run away.

After stumbling a few steps, he turned around in frustration and pretended to be calm as he greeted Meng Jiemin: "Captain, where are you going?"

Meng Jiemin, who came from the army, was not as polite as Chen Hai. He strode forward, grabbed the man's arm and continued forward, glancing at him and said, "Where are you going? Don't you know?

You play very wildly and you are quite brave!

Instead of working hard to earn money to marry a wife, he was lazy and ate all day long. He even set his sights on his cousin's wife.

Aren't you afraid that your parents will be so angry that they'll crawl out of the ground and come after you!"

These words made Meng Quan's face, which had been frozen black, turn pale. He felt panicky, his legs went weak, and his body was dragged forward unconsciously.

It took him a while to regain his senses, his eyes darting around, looking for an opportunity to escape, and he retorted dryly, "Captain, what did you say?

I don’t understand anything.”

"A dead duck is still stubborn!" Meng Jiemin concluded and ignored the man, but he held him with a little more force.
