Chapter 535 The Wild Wolf Sequel
In the years before the family split up, the old couple from the Liu family dared to bully the mother and daughters of the second branch of the family behind their backs, not because their mother was an orphan with no maternal family, and naturally no one would come to support her.

The original owner also remembered seeing Liu's mother muttering things like, "May the family be safe and sound."

After listening to Chu Xue's words, Ji Kunlan said, "Sister Hong from our archives lives next door to Director Wang in the second fitter workshop. Do you want her to help you find out?"

Chu Xue thought for a moment and said, "Don't tell her the specifics. Find a reason to ask her to help you find out about the ex-husband's family, especially his name."

Ji Kunlan nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, I'll find an opportunity to bring it up with her as soon as I get to work this afternoon."

I originally wanted to go out and call Fu Yancheng now to ask her to help investigate the girl's situation, but the call has been transferred multiple times, making it inconvenient to talk. I'll talk to her when we meet tomorrow; there's no rush.

Let's see if Sister Hong in the archives can find out any information.

In Liushu Village, Ge Xiaosong, who was bitten by a wolf, stayed in the hospital for one night. He developed a fever in the middle of the night, but fortunately, the child was usually in good health and the fever finally subsided by dawn.

After observing for another half day, Ge San discharged the child in the afternoon and took him back to the village.

After the village officials learned that the family had returned to the village, they questioned them repeatedly. Ge Xiaosong, being a child, couldn't withstand the pressure and revealed that his older brother had caught a wolf cub, roasted it, and eaten it.

After learning about this, everyone was terrified. The Party Secretary yelled at Ge San, "Luckily, Chu Xue's boyfriend came to deliver a gift. Otherwise, could you have borne the consequences?"

However, the village officials still dared not relax easily, not knowing whether it was a lone wolf or had temporarily lost its pack, and they were afraid that it might bring trouble to the village.

After leaving the Ge family's house, the Party Secretary looked towards the end of the village. If wolves came down the mountain again, the cowshed would be the first to be hit. He frowned and looked preoccupied.

After walking for a while, village chief Deng Huaiming spoke first: "How about we have the militia patrol the foot of the mountain for a while these next few nights? Wolves are known for their vengefulness, and we can't underestimate this. If the wolf pack comes down the mountain, the villagers will be in danger." The Party Secretary knew this perfectly well, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten so angry with Ge San. It was indeed infuriating that he would disregard the safety of the village for his own selfish desires.

But what's done is done, so we can only try to make amends: "That's all we can do for now. We'll have them split into two teams and take turns on night duty, and each person will get five work points per day."

With no objections from others, the matter was settled.

But no one expected things to turn out so coincidentally.

After the village officials left their house, Ge San thought about it again and again, but in the end he was still scared. He secretly threw the skin that his eldest son had peeled off the wolf cub into the river to the south.

It was found by Liu Shanliang, who was out running errands and was taking a side path into the village.

As he entered the courtyard, Liu Jiandong, who had come out to help Ding Surong carry firewood, saw him. Thinking about the lack of progress in their relationship these past few days, he wanted to use this to curry favor with Ding Surong: "Dad, where did you get this?"

Liu Shanliang looked at the item in his hand: "I found it over by the South River. I guess some kid took it out to play with and forgot it there."

Liu Jiandong coughed lightly: "This thing is too small to do much, so why don't you give it to me?"

Seeing his son like this, Liu Shanliang knew exactly what was going on and angrily threw the toy at him, saying, "Can't you be a little more sensible?"

After saying that, he turned and went back into the yard, not looking at his son again, who was just like him.
