Seeing He Neng's sad look, Lin Chunhua pretended to comfort him.
"Why... please accept my condolences!"
He Neng shook his head helplessly.
"Go and see what you want to buy!"
Lin Chunhua was really not polite. She went forward and picked out a few boxes of moisturizing creams, all of which were the most expensive.
How can he not only pay the money but also the ticket?
I even bought a bag of brown sugar, a bag of White Rabbit snacks, and two bags of pastries.
He stuffed it into Lin Chunhua's hand without saying anything.
"Big sister, just take it!"
He Neng just shook his head sadly and turned to leave.
Seeing that the other party was indeed generous, Lin Chunhua was overjoyed.
Ye Junkai is capable, but he left her at home and let her raise the child alone.
The butcher she found later could often stay with her, but he was too rude...
The man in front of her is rich and can accompany her...
The main thing is that Ye Shan at home may not be reliable. Although I can still get money from her now, she is just a soldier.
After she has a child in the future, how can she give money to her old mother?
Lin Chunhua felt that now was the time to make some good plans for herself.
"Comrade He Neng, since we still have time, why don't we go for a walk together?"
He Neng lowered his head and smiled, then followed Lin Chunhua to the park nearby.
Both of them were old and were walking at a distance from each other, so they really didn't attract anyone's attention.
He Neng seemed quite emotional and couldn't help but talk about his past.
"My family is well-off, and through the introduction of my family, I was able to marry a wife and have a son."
"A few years ago, two of my elder family members passed away... My wife also fell seriously ill and passed away soon after. My son was a soldier and never came back after his mission. I am the only one left at home."
Lin Chunhua stayed beside him with understanding, just listening.
"What about you? Big sister!"
Lin Chunhua definitely cannot tell the truth.
"My husband was a soldier, but he's gone now. I have a daughter... She's also serving in the military!"
He Neng immediately began to flatter him.
"Big sister, you are so lucky! Your well-educated daughter has such a great future and even joined the army..."
He Neng seemed to think of his son, who was also on a mission in King's Landing and never came back. He looked a little lonely at the time.
"Being a soldier is good, but it's hard to be both loyal and righteous!"
He Neng shook his head with emotion.
"Big sister, are you with the troops in the military area? If you feel bored alone, why not go out for a walk more often? I often go to this small park too!"
The two walked for a long time, neither of them mentioned their purpose, and finally they parted ways.
However, when Ye Shan returned home from the military area, she received a letter with only two words in it.
A wicked smile appeared on Ye Shan's lips.
I knew Lin Chunhua would be fooled by this trick.
Si Yu did not ask Ye Shan how he would deal with Lin Chunhua's matter, and focused on taking care of her and the baby in her belly.
Ye Shan was still running back and forth.
The people in the village gradually got used to it.
Until one day when Ye Shan came back, she met the village chief on the road.
The village chief was smoking a pipe and saw Ye Shan from afar.
"Comrade Ye Shan, are you back?"
It can be seen that the village chief's back is a little hunched, as if he has aged a lot.
Is there something happening in the village again?
"Just now, that child died... beaten to death by his mother."
Ye Shan frowned and saw that Xiaoyuer beside her was already in tears.
"What does a father say when his child dies?"
Speaking of this, the village chief's brows furrowed even deeper.
"Ah... it's just a girl who can't carry on the family line, but the man didn't care at all. He just took money from home and went out to buy some drinks."
Si Yu gritted his teeth.
"What about that woman? Didn't she get beaten last time? Why is she taking it out on the child?"
The village chief shook his head helplessly.
"I don't know the specifics, and I've only heard rumors about some things."
"I heard that the man found a widow, and she got pregnant again. He hoped that this time she would give birth to a son. No one knew about this."
At this time, even if she is a widow, you cannot touch her, after all, you already have a wife at home.
If you are caught accidentally, you will be paraded through the streets as an adulterer.
"I also heard that the aunt next door heard them arguing. The woman resented her own child, saying why it wasn't a son, so she attacked the girl. I heard a few screams at first, but then there was no sound at all. When I went to check again, the person was already dead."
"Comrade Ye Shan, I know you've seen a lot of things and are a promising person, so I just wanted to ask if you could offer any advice."
"According to village custom, it's best not to pursue this kind of thing. I'm afraid it might ruin the village's reputation..."
Ye Shan could actually understand it.
In her previous life, she had seen many murders, but they were all decided by the local clans themselves and were not handled by the government at all.
I didn't expect that after a thousand years, in such an era, such a thing would still happen.
"Does the village chief really want to hear my opinion?"
The old village chief coughed. He had been to the battlefield and naturally knew that people outside had different ideas. He wanted to hear other opinions.
"According to previous practices, this matter would have been let go. After all, it's just someone else's family affair..."
"That's not what the village chief thinks, is it? You already have an idea in mind, but setting a precedent for some things requires courage."
"Although it is indeed their family affair, but now that someone has died, it is no longer a family matter!"
Ye Shan touched her belly and found that there were two children inside.
Although the kicks didn't hurt, it was still quite uncomfortable for her to be kicked from time to time by the child.
"Have you ever considered, village chief, that whether or not you report this kind of thing to the police, the surrounding villages will soon be completely changed, and the village's reputation will also be ruined?"
"I think it's best to report this kind of thing to the police... At least that will give the village a reputation for being fair and impartial."
"Sometimes the wound needs to be pricked open and the rotten flesh cut off so it can heal faster. If you only focus on suppressing the wound, the wound inside will fester, which will cause more pain and even endanger your life!"
Ye Shan tried her best to explain things in a way that the village chief and the others could understand.
After all, the law is not universally disseminated, otherwise the people here would not want to hide it.
