The look was so cold that it made Wu Ju shudder, and she almost wavered.
"Fu Jun, come and have a drink of water, things will eventually be resolved."
Fu Jun lowered his head, feeling upset. He wanted to push away the cup of water that was handed to him, but when he looked up and saw that it was his future mother-in-law, he happily took it.
"Aunt Wu, is Xiaoqin okay?" Fu Jun glanced around and asked in a low voice.
"As long as you are well, everyone is well."
Wu Ju's words have hidden meaning!
Fu Jun immediately understood what Wu Ju meant. She was warning him that nothing must happen.
But at the moment he was at a loss as to what to do and could only wait for the police to come and investigate.
Wu Ju put her mouth close to Fu Jun's ear and whispered for a long time before returning to Fu's mother. She wanted to scold Shumei for being in the way and send her back home, "Shumei, you're just too bored, aren't you? Why don't you go back and look after Ningning? Stay home and don't come out."
"this--"
"What's this? Children are timid. If she can't find you later and finds you here, she'll be scared by all this. Hurry up."
After hearing Wu Ju's words, Shumei lowered her head and thought for a moment. Wu Ju was right. This noisy scene really shouldn't be seen by children.
Besides, once the police arrive, everything will be resolved and she won't have to get in the way here. Thinking of this, she slowly stood up and walked out of the Fu family's yard.
Wu Ju watched Shumei leave and breathed a sigh of relief. Shumei's presence here was a hindrance and would affect Fu Jun's next move.
This guy with a crooked elbow finally left.
She muttered to herself in her heart.
Fu Jun got up and hurried out of the yard. After a while, he came back with a few burly men.
He handed the poles and ropes from the yard to the men and said, "The coffin is right there. If you help me carry it up the mountain and bury it, I'll give you the rest of the money. There's no need to be particular, just get it up the mountain as quickly as possible."
After hearing this, the eight big men walked towards Xiaomei's coffin with poles and hemp ropes.
These eight big men are the Eight Immortals, or coffin bearers, who are famous in this area.
As soon as Xiaomei's family saw it, they knew what Fu Jun was up to. Xiaomei's mother took the lead and threw herself on the coffin, preventing them from closing it.
Seeing this, the other people in Xiaomei's family also rushed over to help.
It turned out that this was the bad idea Wu Ju gave to Fu Jun, to bury Xiaomei before the police arrived.
"What do you want to do?" Xiaomei's mother hugged the coffin lid tightly and angrily asked the pallbearers who were going to close the coffin.
The big men were confused about the situation and turned around to look at Fu Jun with questioning eyes.
"Don't worry about them. My wife has the final say. Pull them all apart." Fu Jun responded to the coffin bearers decisively, pointing and urging them to move more quickly.
The profession of coffin bearer is not an easy job. Not only does it require a lot of effort, but it also often brings bad luck. Most people don't like to deal with these people for fear of being contaminated by bad luck.
Therefore, most people would not choose to engage in such a profession. Most people who engage in such a profession are from poor families.
Even if they don't offend others, others will not treat them well, unless they need help from them. Therefore, they generally don't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
One of the coffin bearers said kindly, "Auntie, we also make money by working hard. I hope you will understand and not make things difficult for us. The dead cannot be resurrected, and they should be buried in peace."
"My daughter died in an unclear manner. I will not let her rest in peace until her name is cleared."
"This - this -" The coffin bearers were helpless. After hearing what Xiaomei's mother said, they were even more confused and didn't know what to do.
"Don't worry about her, Aunt Wu, come and help pull them apart. You can also lend a hand and pull these people apart. Quickly cover the coffin and carry my wife away. Don't miss the auspicious time so that she can rest in peace as soon as possible."
As Fu Jun spoke, he had already started to grab the coffin lid.
Hearing the sound, Wu Ju quickly got up to help.
Mother Fu sat there, shaking her head and sighing, not wanting to move. "Ah Jun! What's the big deal? Are you saying this? Don't you think the house is messy enough? Can you just quiet down a bit?"
At this moment, she was filled with worry, as if the sky had fallen down, with troubles piling up one after another. Fu Jun was also a constant source of worry, as if he wanted to poke the sky apart.
Wu Ju took two steps, then turned back to persuade Fu's mother after hearing what she said, "Sister-in-law, this time, you really have to stand on Fu Jun's side and go help him. Your Xiaomei's brother has gone to town to find the police. If Xiaomei isn't buried, I'm afraid your Fu Jun will end up in jail. Don't just stand there, go and help."
"What?"
When Mother Fu heard this, she screamed in panic, stumbled to her feet, and hurried forward with Wu Ju to help.
Fu Jun was absolutely wrong in every way, but he was her flesh and blood after all, so how could she just stand by and watch him die?
Wu Ju, Fu Jun and Fu's mother struggled desperately with Xiaomei's family.
Xiaomei's family fought hard and refused to let them cover the coffin and carry it away.
Especially Xiaomei's mother, who held the coffin tightly, and her hands were rubbed with blood.
Zhang Xiaoqin took a stool and climbed on the wall to secretly observe everything that happened in Fu Jun's house. She saw it all and was anxious. She gritted her teeth in hatred and wished she could rush up and cut these troublesome Xiaomei family members into pieces.
Although Xiaomei's family members are all elderly, weak, women and children, they are very determined. Fu Jun and others can't gain the upper hand at all. After struggling for a long time, there is no effect.
