The wealthy ex-wife of the president

Chapter 337 Scared Me 1
"Sister, don't be afraid, we are just tourists here, but now..." His eyes glanced at the bare and deserted village, and he was puzzled.

"Tourists?" the woman shouted loudly, "There is nothing here, why are you here?"

"I heard that there used to be a fruit forest here, why is there nothing now?"

"No more... nothing..." the woman cried, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

Si Lan and Xu Ningmo glanced at each other, stepped forward and grabbed the woman's hand abruptly, and said softly, "Sister, can you tell us what's wrong? Where's your family?"

"It's gone...it's all gone." The woman choked up her sobs as soon as she uttered, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, leaving shallow marks on her aged skin.

"Sister, don't cry, we are not bad people, and we have no malicious intentions. I just don't know how your place became like this...it's different from what we heard before."

"Sister...you don't know...we have nothing here...it was all ruined by the mine of the bastard. They tricked my men into absenteeism. The mine collapsed, and people died in it, and they couldn't even dig up a corpse. Come out. Just give me 5000 yuan, and don’t let me say anything... Otherwise, I will lose my life.”

"5000 yuan?" Si Lan heard the throbbing pain in his heart. Is a human life only worth 5000 yuan? "Your husband's body hasn't been dug up yet?"

"No...it's not just me..." The woman wiped her tears, "At first they said they just hired people to work, easy and earn money, and they didn't know to do absenteeism until they went there. Underground mining, insufficient safety measures, mine collapsed, Hundreds of people died, they didn't care...the corpses were not returned to us, the family paid 5000 yuan...we were not allowed to quarrel...afterwards no one wanted to go, the police in the city came to arrest people...the men fled Those who escaped, those who were captured never came back, only the old and the weak, women and children are left in our village, and there is nothing left..."

"The police actually come to arrest people for absenteeism? Hundreds of people were killed or injured in the mine, so no one cares? The media, the government, all of them are silent?" With a sullen breath in his heart, Si Lan never thought that there was another place in the world. It will be like this.It seems that it is still stuck in the ancient king system, as if Qin Shihuang arrested people to build the Great Wall.

"No one dares to care! No one cares... A reporter came to interview but disappeared later. People in the village were beaten and told us to be careful. If we talk nonsense, we will die. The home is gone, the man is gone, the child is gone. I also died of illness, I have nothing left, so what are you afraid of... I will die..." The woman couldn't make a sound, touching her tears, it seemed that there was no hope in life, only darkness remained.

Si Lanting's body and mind were cold, his back was icy cold, and goose bumps arose.He looked at Xu Ningmo with unspeakable distress and anger.

If there were no people from the Li family in BJ to suppress this matter, who would dare to be so lawless?
These people are just relying on the height of the mountains and the emperor's distance, thinking that no one is in charge, thinking that money and power can stop people's mouths and hide the truth.

Thinking of hundreds of lives being crushed under the collapsed mine, Si Lan's heart tightened in pain, and he wished he could go directly to BJ and kill the man surnamed Li.His life is his life, isn't the life of others his life?

Xu Ningmo patted her on the shoulder, looked at the woman, and asked, "Sister, to tell you the truth, the two of us came this time because of this coal mine. We couldn't find the mine with the worst collapse. Field location, do you know if you can tell us?"

"Really? You are really working for the mine, you didn't lie to me?" The woman was stunned.

"Sister, we didn't lie to you. However, this matter is very dangerous. It doesn't matter if you don't dare to say it. But you can't tell others the purpose of our coming, no one can. Otherwise, the coal mine case will not be solved. We No life, you will live in this kind of pain forever." Silan calmed down, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said carefully.

The woman wiped her tears and nodded quickly: "I know, I know. I won't tell anyone, not anyone. I can still take you to find the collapsed mine, I know the place?"

"Really?" Si Lan's eyes were tinged with joy, "I'm just afraid that you will be in a little danger."

"I'm not afraid." The woman sniffed, "As long as I can drive those bastards away, I'm not afraid of anything. Don't let the people around you suffer anymore... Just let the men who left come back. I'm not afraid!"

Xu Ningmo held Si Lan's hand tightly, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, sister, we will do our best to protect your safety."

"You haven't eaten yet, right? Eat first, I'll cook for you, and I'll take you there when you're full..." After the woman finished speaking, she immediately led them in to sit down.

This was the first time Silan had seen a house made of mud.The walls are all made of mud, and the beams are all wood, triangular.It was dark and covered with cobwebs, and there was a wide gap in the wall near the east.

Xu Ningmo calmly explained to her that the large triangular piece of wood in the center of the room is called a "big beam". The triangle is the most stable, and the roof of the whole house is supported by this big beam.The top is bamboo, cattail grass mud, and a few tiles.

A small house was built in the yard with a chimney above it, and the women kept stuffing firewood into a rectangular opening.The ones made of mud are called "grass pots", black cauldrons, and the lids made of wood are emitting white mist.

Si Lan stared at Xu Ningmo in surprise, "How do you know this?" He had never seen it before.

Xu Ningmo's eyes flickered with a trace of complexity, which became more and more deep, and finally raised his eyebrows, "I won't tell you the secret."

Cheapskate.Si Lan went to help Elder Sister, but was pushed out. The place was really too small for two people standing there to turn around.

There are four or five pear trees planted behind the house, but there is not a single green leaf, and the withered appearance makes people feel depressed.Si Lan walked around the house, and there was a large pond a few meters behind the house, which was dry without a drop of water, and the surrounding grass was dead.

Si Lan stopped and covered his nose, wondering, "Why is it so smelly?"

Xu Ningmo saw a small hut with sharp eyes, and pointed: "Go and have a look, maybe it's the smell of corpses."

"Impossible!" Si Lan knew that the smell of corpses is not like this, it must be too stinky.

Xu Ningmo pushed her, "Go and have a look, maybe it's an animal carcass, or something else."

Si Lan glanced at him suspiciously, why did he always feel that he saw a "cunning" light in his eyes?Curiosity drove Si Lan to walk carefully step by step.There are flies flying around, is it really a dead thing?

Seeing her getting closer and closer, Xu Ningmo finally couldn't help but relax his tense face, and his lips evoked a wicked smirk...

Si Lan approached and stopped, took a closer look, screamed in fright, turned around and glared at him angrily, "Xu Ningmo!"

"Idiot." Xu Ningmo couldn't help but smile even wider. Seeing her walking over in a hurry, he suppressed a smile and explained, "This is called a cesspool. They keep the excrement to irrigate the farmland, and these things are the nutrition of the crops. These are the vegetables you ate before..."

"Xu Ningmo!" Si Lan couldn't help interrupting him, gritted his teeth angrily: "You are enough!"

Still say, dare to say!Now the stomach has started to churn, and I feel nauseous; he still wants to speak so carefully, it must be on purpose!
Just because I followed him here, I was angry and wanted to take revenge on myself, this man's wife is narrow-minded, why didn't I find out before.

Xu Ningmo looked at her puffy look, she was so cute, her smile became even more unscrupulous, the corners of her mouth turned up, showing her white teeth and nodded, "Okay! I won't say anything... I will take you to live like this from now on. The place……"

"Who wants to live here with you! You live slowly by yourself, dancing with these feces! I won't talk to you!" Silan dropped his sentence and turned back to the house.

Xu Ningmo's smile was a little innocent, what he said was the truth!However, she has a bad stomach, it's okay to look at carrion corpses, but it's really not good to look at these.

The woman's husband's name has the word "Hua", so let Si Lan and the others call her Sister Hua.Lunch is very simple, there is nothing in the backcountry, a poor plate of vegetables, tofu skin, and steamed eggs.

Si Lan had a weak appetite at first, but after watching that, now he has no appetite at all.Xu Ningmo's words lingered in his ears every time his chopsticks reached for the vegetables, and he silently changed it to bean curd skin.

Sister Hua said embarrassingly: "There is really nothing at home, and there is nothing delicious to entertain you..."

"Sister Hua, don't say that. I don't eat much, and these are enough. This steamed egg is delicious, and I rarely eat it before." Si Lan said quickly, smiling.

She didn't dislike these dishes, but she disliked what Xu Ningmo said!
"Yes, Sister Hua! She has a light appetite, and if she doesn't have a tricky mouth, she eats less. At home, no matter how hard I force or coax her, she won't eat more." The voice was gentle, as if a family member who spoiled the child.

Si Lan frowned and gave him a cold look.

Xu Ningmo turned a blind eye.

"You are a young couple. I can see that you must have a good relationship." Sister Hua said enviously.

"No, I have nothing to do with him!" Si Lan quickly explained!
Xu Ningmo stared at her deliberately with ambiguous and doting eyes, without saying a word, and his ambiguous attitude fully expressed the couple's awkward little emotions.

Sister Hua's envious smile made Si Lan bow her head silently, picking up her rice resentfully.It's a pity that Xu Ningmo doesn't act, he is at the level of a movie king!

After dinner, Si Lan helped Sister Hua clean up.Sister Hua took the rubber shoes and asked them to change them on, otherwise the muddy road would be really difficult.Si Lan also wrapped up the coat that Sister Hua gave her. She heard that it would take several hours to walk, and the temperature here at night was very low, so she did not refuse Sister Hua's kindness.

The three walked along the narrow dirt road, with Sister Hua leading the way.Because she lived here all the year round, she was used to such appearances, but Si Lan obviously couldn't adapt.The rubber shoes were particularly heavy with mud, and Si Lan was sweating from the heat of walking for two hours, and was panting tiredly.

I never knew walking could be so tiring.I really admire Miss Hua.

Seeing her sweating profusely, Xu Ningmo raised the corners of her mouth, "How about I carry you on my back."

Si Lan cast a cold glance at him, took a deep breath and trotted two steps to catch up with Sister Hua.It's not because of anger, but because I really don't want to make Ning Mo too tired.

Xu Ningmo thought she was angry about what happened at noon, his handsome brows were picturesque, he frowned slightly, shook his head helplessly, and quickened his pace to follow.

I don't know how many detours and miles I walked, and finally came to an open place.

Desolate, secluded.

There are some potholes and high tops like hillsides, making it a little difficult to walk up.

"This is the place where the collapse is the worst. My man was buried here, and he couldn't dig it out." Sister Hua's eyes were red again as she said.
