Chapter 31 Bloody Disaster
Several people ate silently, finishing the whole table of dishes. Even the soup was eaten by He Dan and Lin Xianghong with rice. The two burped with satisfaction. It had been a long time since they had eaten such delicious food.
"Sister-in-law's cooking is so delicious!" He Dan flattered sincerely.
Lin Xianghong also wanted to praise her, but he couldn't say it out loud, and his expression was awkward. However, his opinion of Jiang Hanyan has changed a lot now. Compared with before, Jiang Hanyan is now both capable and virtuous, and there is really nothing wrong with her.
"That... is for the child!"
Lin Xianghong used the excuse of going out to smoke to pack a red envelope and stuff it into Jiang Hanyan. It seemed that Brother Chen wanted to spend the New Year wholeheartedly. As an uncle, he had to give a gift to the baby in her belly during the New Year.
Jiang Hanyan thought it was for Doudou, so she took it and gave it to Lu Chen, "You keep it for Doudou."
She is just staying here temporarily and cannot give Doudou any New Year's money.
Lin Xianghong was stunned for a moment, and then quickly explained: "For the younger one."
He gave Doudou the New Year's money on New Year's Eve.
Seeing that Jiang Hanyan still didn't understand, he said it more clearly, "For the child in your belly!"
Lu Chen was washing dishes. He just reached out to take the red envelope, but he shrank back unhappily after hearing this and said coldly, "There is no child, take it back!"
He was happy for nothing.
He Dan also came over with a red envelope. He was stunned when he heard this and blurted out, "How come it's gone? It was still there on New Year's Eve!"
How can a child just disappear like that? Lin Xianghong couldn't figure it out either. She kept glancing at Jiang Hanyan's belly. No wonder she always felt something was wrong. How could a pregnant woman's waist be so thin? Jiang Hanyan slipped away quietly, leaving Lu Chen to explain.
Lu Chen didn't know how to explain it. He still didn't understand whether he and Jiang Hanyan slept together that night. "If it's gone, it's gone. What's there to ask?"
Lu Chen's face turned cold. Lin Xianghong and He Dan didn't dare to ask any more questions and left the kitchen cautiously.
The two of them sneaked to the yard and discussed the child's issue in a low voice.
"I think Jiang Hanyan must have faked her pregnancy to trick Brother Chen into marrying her." Lin Xianghong revealed the truth in one sentence.
"Impossible, Brother Chen is not us, how could he be fooled? He must have leaked." He Dan blindly worships Lu Chen, and he wouldn't even fall for such a childish trick, so how could Brother Chen be fooled?
Lin Xianghong also hesitated. It seemed to be the case. Could it be that Jiang Hanyan really had a miscarriage?
That's too pitiful.
The two of them sighed at the same time and looked at Jiang Hanyan who was holding the guqin with sympathy. After hearing the unpleasant sound of the guqin, they felt more pity for her. Her mind was not normal after she had a miscarriage.
How could a normal person make such an unpleasant sound? "My sister-in-law is so pitiful!" He Dan sniffed, his eyes reddened. His little nephew was gone.
"well!"
Lin Xianghong sighed and decided to be more polite to Jiang Hanyan in the future.
Jiang Hanyan felt pretty good about herself and could play a short section of syllables, but to outsiders it still sounded like playing cotton. After practicing for an hour, she yawned and prepared to take a nap.
"Brother Chen, let's go back to the mine."
Lin Xianghong and He Dan are going back to the coal mine and say goodbye to Lu Chen.
"I'll be back tomorrow. You guys should be alert and tell the workers not to work overtime too late at night!" Lu Chen reminded.
The coal mine did not have complete safety equipment. He mentioned it to his third brother several times, but his third brother did not agree. He said the investment in safety equipment was too huge and his third brother was reluctant to do so and felt it was unnecessary.
Lin Xianghong looked embarrassed and whispered, "Third brother has a problem with it. He said it's too early to get off work at night."
Lu Chen frowned and said in a deep voice: "Just do as I say, and I will explain to the third brother."
If an accident happens in the coal mine, more than one or two people will die. It won’t affect him much, but he can’t bear to watch people die.
Lin Xianghong and He Dan agreed and pushed a broken motorcycle out, but were stopped by Jiang Hanyan.
"Let me tell you a fortune!"
Jiang Hanyan took out forty-nine cards and placed them on the ground. Jin Shanshan ran over smartly, waiting for the master's order.
He Dan said happily: "Can you help me calculate when I will get married?"
He had long wanted to ask his sister-in-law for help, but was too embarrassed to ask.
Jiang Hanyan looked at him with pity. He Dan in the book had a tragic fate. He happened to be underground when a coal mine collapsed. Although he survived, he became lame in one leg. Later, he died while blocking a knife for Lu Chen. He never had a girlfriend until his death.
Moreover, among He Dan's many brothers, he is the least favored. He has lived like an orphan since childhood and could only have enough food after following Lu Chen. Therefore, he is loyal to Lu Chen and does not hesitate to take the blame.
Jin Shanshan drew a fortune stick. Jiang Hanyan opened it and looked at it. She then carefully observed He Dan's face and said, "Your husband and wife palaces and children palaces are both pretty good. You will have a rough childhood, but you will meet a noble person in your youth and live a good life. But after you marry a wife at least 26 years old, you will have a loving couple, sons and daughters, and a rich life."
He Dan couldn't close his mouth. He was 22 years old this year. He would be able to get married in four years. He also had a son and a daughter. How could he be so lucky? "But life is unpredictable. Your face and fate will change. You will have a disaster in the near future, and there will be a bloody disaster." Jiang Hanyan changed the subject.
He Dan was so frightened that he couldn't laugh anymore, and asked anxiously, "Am I going to die?"
"That won't happen. At most you'll be lame. Don't go down the mine within a month!" Jiang Hanyan reminded.
She couldn't quite remember the time of the mine accident, she only knew it happened not long after Tang Xuehai started school, that is, within this month.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"I remember that."
He Dan nodded hurriedly. He didn't want to be a cripple, so he stayed at the well for the next month.
He took out fifty yuan as divination fee, but Jiang Hanyan only took ten yuan, "You are Lu Chen's friend, so I will charge you a friendship price."
It is impossible not to charge a penny. Her father said that one must charge for fortune-telling for others, otherwise it will harm one's health.
“Thank you, sister-in-law!”
He Dan was very grateful, his sister-in-law was such a good person.
Lin Xianghong was very conflicted. He also wanted to calculate when he would become rich. After hesitating for a long time, he finally plucked up the courage to ask. Jiang Hanyan glanced at him with a half-smile and refused.
"You are not sincere, so it doesn't count!"
Don't think that she didn't notice Lin Xianghong's previous alienation and disdain. It's not like she doesn't have a temper, and she doesn't want to get angry with people who look down on her.
Lin Xiang's face flushed red. He understood what Jiang Hanyan meant and felt ashamed. His attitude before was indeed a bit too much.
But that was also because Jiang Hanyan’s reputation in the past was too bad, and everyone would have the same idea as him.
Lu Chen's mouth curled up slightly. This woman is quite vindictive.
After Lin Xianghong and He Dan left, Lu Chen couldn't help but ask, "How can you tell fortunes?"
“Gifted!”
Jiang Hanyan boasted that her father said she was a rare genius in the Xuanmen sect that was rarely seen in a century.
Lu Chen was a little speechless. He had never seen anyone more shameless than this woman.
However, he became even more curious about Jiang Hanyan's background. She could tell fortunes, practice traditional Chinese medicine, and cook delicious meals. What did this woman do before?
"Why don't you let He Dan go down the well? Will something happen at the bottom of the well?" Lu Chen asked again, vaguely worried.
"You don't know if something will go wrong?"
Jiang Hanyan spoke in a sarcastic tone. Many coal mines in Fucheng did not attach importance to safety in production. The mine owners made a lot of money but were reluctant to buy safety equipment. This was what happened in the coal mine managed by Lu Chen.
Lu Chen's expression changed slightly and his heart sank.
The knock on the door interrupted the silence in the yard, and a woman's hoarse voice rang out: "Zhao Di, open the door!"
