Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 303 Killing someone with a borrowed knife

Seeing this, Zhou Guizhi hurriedly said to Tian Jinhua, "Leave the children at home to play and take good care of grandpa and grandma. Xiaowu and I will go over and take a look."

This weekend, Jiang Xingbing also came back, "I'll go over too."

After leaving the courtyard, Jiang Xingye asked, "Did He Yuzhen fall? How could she fall?"

Xu Qinghuan recounted what had happened, "We don't know how high that cliff is. If there wasn't water or soft muddy land underneath, it would have been very dangerous."

There is a small stream at the bottom of the cliff, which is only about half a meter wide and clear to the bottom. Occasionally, you can see small fish swimming around, and you can see some snails growing in the gaps between the pebbles.

The white pebbles are clean and beautiful, paving the way to the bottom of the cliff.

He Yuzhen fell on it, face down, blood gushing from her forehead, staining the pebbles red. The blood seeped into the stream and meandered downstream.

When everyone found her, she was already dead.

The police arrived quickly, investigated the scene, examined the body, and took statements from witnesses. Then they took away Zhang Wenyan, who had kicked He Yuzhen off the cliff.

Zhang Wenyan cried until she was hoarse, but there is no medicine for regret in the world. She accused Dong Mantang viciously, "You did it on purpose, you deliberately hurt me, you did it on purpose, Dong Mantang, you are not a human being."

No one could understand what she said.

Dong Mantang stood there with his head down and tears streaming down his face, like a fool.

The two children were crying, it was really pitiful to see them.

Everyone in the Shangjiang Brigade who saw this would exclaim "What a sin!" A happy family had been torn apart like that.

The Shangjiang Brigade sent her body back to the He family. Not only did the He family refuse to accept it, they also extorted money from the Jiang family, saying they would sue the police station.

"Go ahead and sue me, sue me however you want." Jiang Baohua said, put his hands behind his back, and left.

The people who came with him were detained by the members here. They asked each other about what had happened. The matter spread very quickly, but as one person told ten people, and ten people told a hundred people, the story changed as it was passed on. There was no way it could be as comprehensive as first-hand information.

"What are you suing for? If the person hadn't died, the Jiang family would have sued Yuzhen. They pushed the Jiang family's golden grandson to the edge of a cliff and tried to push him off. Is he still their biological child? Is he still a human being?"

"That's right! I'm telling you, this family is no good. From now on, if your son is single, don't marry a girl from this family. The Jiang family married He Yuzhen from their family. They are really unlucky for eight generations."

"Who says it's not true? Back then, they asked for a lot of betrothal gifts, but after she got married, she cheated on him. Oh, you don't know. Because of this, our Hezhuang Brigade has a bad reputation now!"

"No wonder. A few days ago, the third child of my second uncle's aunt's nephew's family agreed to go on a blind date after the harvest, but the matchmaker came and said that the man said he didn't want girls from the He family brigade."

"Oh my God, what does this He family affair have to do with us? Isn't this dragging down all the girls?"

A male member nearby heard this and said, "What's the connection? The Shangjiang Brigade has developed a thresher that threshes very quickly and is willing to rent it out to other brigades. But they said they'll rent it to anyone, but not to ours."

“It’s really killing people!”

Immediately afterwards, these members began to surround He Yuzhen's house and curse. People coming and going either spit at her house, throw earthenware shavings at her house, and some even throw rotten vegetable leaves at her house. The He family didn't even dare to open the door.

Inside the door, the two sisters-in-law Li Cuihua and Xie Chunxiang did not let Ye Dazui go, and they wished they could force the old woman to death.

"Raising a daughter is completely useless. Other girls would try to get some benefits for their parents, but what can she do? She only knows how to bring trouble to the family."

The "she" they were referring to was He Yuzhen. "Even after her death, she would bring disaster to the family."

At night, He Yuzhen's two brothers wrapped her in a tattered mat, took her to the mountain, and found a place to bury her.

Everyone in the Shangjiang Brigade was talking about Zhang Wenyan and felt that she was really pitiful.

After everyone left, Dong Mantang returned home. No one said anything, but his father picked up a hoe and hit him with it. "You bastard! If it weren't for you, Wen Yan would have ended up like this!"

Over the years, this family has been supported by Zhang Wenyan.

Dong Mantang is a useless man, and Zhang Wenyan has to take charge of everything, from getting benefits from his uncle Dong Xinmin to what the family will eat for a meal, Zhang Wenyan is always concerned about everything.

Now that Zhang Wenyan is gone, the family has suddenly lost its backbone.

Dong Mantang ran very fast and was not hit by his father. His father, leaning on a hoe, cried to the villagers who gathered to watch the excitement, "Everyone knows that my wife is a capable woman, a hundred times more capable than my son. If it weren't for her, this family would have been in a mess.

I would rather it was that bastard Dong Mantang who was arrested by the police than her!"

Qiao Xinyu was also among the crowd watching the excitement. After hearing what happened, he felt it was a great pity. When he came back, he saw a familiar figure passing by the back door of Widow Du's house.

She was also a brave woman, and she sneaked over to eavesdrop under the cover of night.

"You idiot, you're such a heartless person! Wen Yan was just captured and you came here! It's so embarrassing if someone sees you. They might even say I seduced you."

"It's not that you seduced me or something, how could I come if you didn't seduce me?"

It has been a long time since he and He Yuzhen were arrested. Now that the opportunity has come, he can't wait any longer.

Some inappropriate sounds were heard by children. Qiao Xinyu didn't dare to listen anymore and went back in a daze. While eating, she told what she saw and heard.

Except for Xu Qinghuan, the other three looked at Jiang Xingye, waiting for him to clarify their doubts.

Jiang Xingye was bewildered by the look, "I don't know what's going on either."

Qiao Xinyu held her chopsticks. "When Zhang Wenyan was taken away by the police, she kept yelling, saying that Dong Mantang did it on purpose. Even if Dong Mantang took sides when they were on the cliff, there's no need for her to hold such a grudge. What happened?"

Xu Qinghuan said, "When they were on the cliff, Zhang Wenyan knocked He Yuzhen off. Dong Mantang did it on purpose."

"what?"

Even Jiang Xingye was shocked. He looked at Xu Qinghuan with his clear black eyes full of suspicion.

"Don't underestimate Dong Mantang!" Xu Qinghuan analyzed, "When He Yuzhen and Zhang Wenyan were fighting, he stepped forward to break up the fight, pulling Zhang Wenyan back seemingly to drag her. In reality, Zhang Wenyan couldn't move her hands, only her feet, and she struggled forward, and he kept pushing her forward.

While pushing forward, it forced He Yuzhen to move closer to the edge of the cliff."

"Why would he do this? Is He Yuzhen still pestering him? Besides, even if He Yuzhen is pestering him, the matter has been exposed. What else does he have to worry about?" Yu Xiaomin also found it incredible.

"He didn't want He Yuzhen to die. He wanted to kill someone else. His goal was to kill Zhang Wenyan."

Xu Qinghuan said, "So, he kept suppressing Zhang Wenyan. Zhang Wenyan became increasingly angry and eventually lost her mind. Just as she was struggling more and more, Dong Mantang suddenly let go. When she rushed out, she had great inertia and eventually knocked He Yuzhen off the cliff."
