Chapter 94 Chapter 94 Dig the ground, quickly...
The blade flashed coldly.
Wu Xingliang howled in pain, and Qian Lamei was so scared that she rushed forward to help.
"You want to kill me?!"
Wu Xingliang shouted and snatched the fruit knife from Zheng Miaoran.
There was blood on the fruit knife.
After all, women are not as strong as men. Zheng Miaoran was very ruthless. Despite Wu Xingliang's attempt to stop her, she only scratched his flesh a little. He was bleeding but his internal organs were not injured.
But Wu Xingliang's eyes turned red with pain. In a rage, he snatched the fruit knife and stabbed Zheng Miaoran in the neck.
"Xingliang!! Don't kill anyone!" Qian Lamei hurried to stop him again.
But Wu Xingliang didn't care about all these. He raised his arm and stabbed Zheng Miaoran amidst her screams. Qian Lamei was unable to stop him and could only pull Wu Xingliang's wrist. However, the fruit knife was off position and stabbed directly into Zheng Miaoran's chest.
Bright red blood trickled out, Zheng Miaoran groaned in pain, his eyes almost popping out, but he no longer had the strength to shout.
The house suddenly became quiet, with only Wu Xingliang's rough breathing echoing in the living room.
A moment later, Qian Lamei looked at Zheng Miaoran who was gradually losing her breath, and suddenly covered her mouth as if she wanted to scream. Then, tears fell from her wrinkled and dry face.
Wu Xingliang also came to his senses.
In his impulse, his eyes went red. At this moment, looking at the woman lying on the ground motionless, he suddenly realized that he had actually killed someone.
The handle of the fruit knife was still stuck in Zheng Miaoran's chest, the blade was completely embedded in the flesh, and blood flowed from Wu Xingliang's palm to the ground.
He was shocked and crawled backwards from Zheng Miaoran's body to the side, looking at the bright red on his palm in panic.
“I, I killed someone!!”
"No, no, it was Zheng Miaoran who wanted to kill me. I was just defending myself. It was legitimate defense!"
Wu Xingliang's first reaction was to excuse himself.
"I was acting in self-defense. Mom, you can see it from the side. I really was acting in self-defense! If I hadn't taken action, Zheng Miaoran would have killed me. I'm even bleeding from my stomach!"
Wu Xingliang lifted up his clothes, trying to explain to Qian Lamei, and also trying to explain to himself.
Can--
The fact is the fact, he killed Zheng Miaoran.
Qian Lamei trembled, "What should I do? What should I do about this? Even if I'm watching, the person is already dead. How are we going to explain it to the police when they come?"
"How do you explain it? I didn't do anything wrong. I..."
"Xingliang!! Wake up!! Can you please look down and see what you have done?" Qian Lamei rushed forward madly, grabbed Wu Xingliang's arm and shook it.
Wu Xingliang frowned and pushed Qian Lamei aside.
And just then, the door rang.
It just so happens that the children are not at home today. I guess Ma Wenli and Wu Youde have come to pick up the children.
"No, no one else can see this."
Wu Xingliang finally recovered at this moment, "Mom, go drag them out first, especially the kids, don't let them in. If it really doesn't work, go to my office tonight and squeeze in. After the kids are settled, you can come back shouting "Youdeyoumei". Here, I'll deal with it briefly first, and we'll get them out in the dark tonight!"
Qian Lamei wiped her tears and without saying anything else to Wu Xingliang, she hurried into the yard.
The people who came were indeed Wu Youde and Ma Wenli. Qian Lamei made up an excuse and tricked Ma Wenli into taking the child out first. Then Qian Lamei pulled Wu Youde into the living room.
Seeing this scene in the room, Wu Youde was also dumbfounded.
He had done a lot of bad things, and was even responsible for pushing Lu Qinghe into the river, but when he faced the bloody corpse, he couldn't help but feel scared.
"Hey, this, big brother, you..."
Wu Xingliang stared blankly at the corpse on the ground.
"Stop talking nonsense. We are a family that shares honor and disgrace. Hurry up and settle your wife and children down and come over to help. If you still want to continue living in the provincial capital, just shut up. Do you hear me?!"
Wu Youde was stunned for a moment, then nodded tremblingly at Qian Lamei's urging, "I heard it, but what should I do?"
The blood was already flowing down the floor and almost reaching the door. Wu Xingliang stood up, his hands trembling slightly.
Wu Xingliang: "First, help me bandage the wound, then drag him to the bathroom."
“…Eh.”
When Wu Youmei came back, she saw Wu Xingliang covered in blood and was so scared that she collapsed on the ground.
Wu Xingliang looked at him with a fierce look, and said, "What are you afraid of? It's not you who will die."
Wu Youmei was startled and took a few steps back tremblingly: "But brother, you, you..."
"I did it."
After a pause, Wu Xingliang revealed a strange smile: "What I did is equivalent to what our family did. You can either help me clean up, or..."
Wu Youmei swallowed her saliva and said, "I, I understand. Brother, you don't have to say this to me. I will definitely stand on our side, but... Ugh..."
The next second, Wu Youmei leaned over and vomited.
She was afraid and she felt disgusted.
Wu Xingliang snorted coldly, turned his head, and continued to drag Zheng Miaoran's already cold body to wash.
The water in the pipe was flowing, but it seemed that the bloodstains could not be washed away.
Finally, with no other choice, Wu Xingliang turned around and looked at the vegetable patch in the corner of the yard.
"This is it."
Wu Xingliang stood up and said, "Go find a shovel and dig a hole in the vegetable patch. Bury the soil there, and then plant the vegetables. That way, no one will find out."
"Can you, can you, Xingliang? Just stay at home like this?"
"Why not? If we take it out, tell me where to bury it. And as long as we leave this yard, there will be a risk of being discovered. But if we stay in the yard, as long as our family keeps quiet and doesn't let anyone else live in this yard, there's no way anyone will come in and dig up our vegetable patch."
"Brother, what you said makes some sense." Wu Youde agreed with a trembling voice.
Wu Xingliang: "Dig the ground, dig quickly, if you don't dig now it will snow heavily and it will be even harder to dig deep once the ground freezes."
Wu Xingliang wiped his face and pulled Wu Youde to the yard.
Wu Youmei looked at Qian Lamei, almost crying, "Mom, I'm scared. This guy is right in the yard. Who would dare to go to the toilet in the middle of the night..."
Qian Lamei sighed deeply, then gritted her teeth and stood up: "It has come to this point, don't think about those unnecessary things, you go and wipe those on the living room floor, I will wash the yard tiles."
"……oh."
Wu Youmei tremblingly found the rag, but as soon as she entered the living room and squatted down, she saw the blood on the ground and smelled the smell of rust. She felt dizzy and crawled into the yard to vomit.
…
It went on until nightfall.
Wu Youmei was really overwhelmed, so she and Ma Wenli took the children to the steel plant office to spend the night there. The excuse they gave was that their eldest brother and sister-in-law had a quarrel and they were afraid it would affect the children.
For fear of being noticed, Wu Xingliang did not dare to ask anyone to light a lamp. After the pit was dug, he dragged Zheng Miaoran's body in the dark and threw it into the mud pit under the vegetable field.
"Fill in the soil." Wu Xingliang called out.
Wu Youde looked at the bloodstains on the courtyard tiles as he was dragged along, and asked, "Brother, what should we do with the road?"
"Connect the hose and flush it tomorrow morning."
"We have people around here. What should we do if we ask where the eldest sister-in-law has gone?"
"She's not that popular, so she'll just say she had a fight and went back to her parents' house. No one will care."
"What about a long time?"
"Then call the police." Wu Xingliang's face was extremely fierce.
"Call the police?"
"Well, report her missing and say she had an argument and went back to her parents' home and hasn't been seen since. As long as we don't tell them, they definitely won't think of her home. Besides, the only one still alive in the Zheng family is Zheng Miaoran's mother. She's just an old lady, so she can't cause any trouble. Even with this, it can take a month or two. After that, it will be even harder to find her."
Wu Xingliang wiped his face and said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense. What else are you thinking about after coming this far? Let's get to work."
"……oh."
Wu Youde didn't dare to argue with Wu Xingliang. When he was about to fill the pit with soil, the moon cast a shadow from the side of the dark clouds, which happened to shine into the pit.
Wu Youde was so scared that he sat down on the ground.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother, brother, she seems to have opened her eyes!!"
Wu Xingliang was stunned and looked over carefully. After a while, he picked up the shovel and covered Zheng Miaoran's pale face with a shovel of dirt.
"Bah! You're already dead, why are you opening your eyes? You're scaring yourself. Get back to work!"
Wu Youde patted his butt, stood up, swallowed his saliva, covered his face, and then continued to work beside him.
After covering the soil, the vegetable field has to be restored to its original state.
After that, I had to clean up the bloodstains in the living room and the yard. By the time everything was done, the sky was turning pale.
Wu Xingliang and Wu Youde took off all their coats and threw the bloodstained clothes to Qian Lamei to wash.
Wu Youde collapsed on the ground exhausted, staring blankly at the top of his head.
Wu Xingliang was even worse off than him. The wound on his stomach had broken open countless times due to his movements, but because he was nervous, he didn't care much even though he was bleeding all night. Now, after lying down, he was shivering in pain.
Medicine is not easy to buy these days. Just bandaging with gauze is not only painful but also may cause infection.
In a hurry, Qian Lamei simply found some rice wine at home and poured it on the pot to sterilize it.
"hiss……"
Wu Xingliang immediately broke out in sweat due to the pain.
"Hold on, don't make any noise. Luckily there's no one next door, otherwise someone would have come to ask about the noise last night."
Wu Xingliang bit his clothes and endured it, but Qian Lamei took a closer look at the wound and panicked again.
"Why is this wound bigger than yesterday? Xingliang, we need to go to the hospital for stitches!"
"Why? What's the reason?" Wu Xingliang glared at him.
"Just say...just say he accidentally fell! He fell on the table, or maybe they had a fight."
"What a fool!"
Wu Xingliang cursed angrily, turned around and gritted his teeth to bandage himself.
"Then what should we do? We can't wait for the wound to get infected."
"I have an idea. I'll be out by myself later. You all should carry on with your daily life today. Try not to talk to anyone, and also take care of the vegetable patch in the yard."
"Brother, you're still going to work even though you're like this?"
"I'm going to work for your uncle." Wu Xingliang glared at him angrily. "I'm going to get some stitches and also go to the Zheng family."
