"Something terrible has happened! Help!"

"Help! Blood, so much blood!"

Hearing the faint cries for help, Wen Li immediately ran out of the room.

"Who's shouting?"

Deng Wei pointed in the direction of the village, "It seems to be coming from over there!"

"Let's go take a look!"

The group all ran out of the educated youth compound and immediately saw that everyone was running towards Jiang Yue'er's house.

When they arrived, the courtyard gate was already surrounded by people.

Chen Yan waved to Li Xiangxiang, and Li Xiangxiang squeezed through.

"What happened?"

"Jiang Yue'er fell and bled quite a bit. An auntie who was passing by found her unconscious in the yard. Grandpa Wu has already gone inside, and we don't know her condition yet!"

Li Xiangxiang loved watching the excitement and disliked Jiang Yue'er, but Jiang Yue'er was pregnant and couldn't laugh at this moment.

Where is Jiang Chen?

"I don't know, he's probably not home!"

No one went inside; they all stood outside the courtyard whispering among themselves.

Jiang Yue'er is pregnant with triplets. If she's not careful, her life could be in danger. After all, she's a girl everyone has watched grow up, so whether they like her or not, very few people are gloating at this time.

Wen Li squeezed through the crowd and looked at the horrifying pool of blood in the yard. She felt that the child might not survive.

Jiang Yue'er hasn't moved at all; she's probably still unconscious.

Just then, Jiang Laosan drove over in his oxcart, which was already covered with thick blankets.

"Everyone, make way!"

The crowd parted to make way, and after a short while, Jiang Lao Er and the village chief carried out the unconscious Jiang Yue'er.

Old Wu's face didn't look good; his condition must be serious.

After everyone had been seen off, the crowd dispersed.

Wen Li entered the courtyard only after she saw that no one was around.

Chen Yan didn't know what Wen Li was going to do. "Xiao Li, what are you doing?"

Wen Li didn't say anything. She walked to the bloodstain and squatted down. She noticed a small white paste-like substance in front of the bloodstain.

Wen Li rubbed the white substance between her fingers; it was slippery and didn't have any particular taste.

Chen Yan and Li Xiangxiang followed them over. "What's wrong?"

Wen Li raised her finger. "Look what this is?"

The two examined Wen Li's fingers closely and noticed that the substance on her fingertips was slippery and glistening with oil.

Li Xiangxiang frowned deeply. "It tastes like lard!"

"Lard?" Chen Yan leaned closer for a look, uncertain. "It really does look like lard!"

The strong smell of blood, combined with the fact that lard itself has little flavor, makes it difficult to identify.

"It's lard!"

The three people, with six eyes, stared at each other in bewilderment.

They all know the inside story of Guo Caixia's miscarriage back then. How similar is this scene to that scene of Guo Caixia's miscarriage back then?

Chen Yan asked uncertainly, "Is it him?"

Wen Li shook her head. "Let's go back first!"

After leaving Jiang Yue'er's house, Wen Li was still deep in thought, wondering if this was an accident or Jiang Chen's intention.

Considering Jiang Chen's frequent secret trips to the back mountain at night, Wen Li couldn't help but suspect that Jiang Chen might have hooked up with another woman who could benefit him, which was why he targeted Jiang Yue'er.

But who is this person?

Jiang Chen started acting strangely after the educated youth were sent to the countryside. There were only two new educated youth in their educated youth compound, and Guan Li's family was just an ordinary family.

Bai Wei only likes Gu Xiangnan...

Wait, could it be Bai Wei?

Will she use Jiang Chen to provoke Gu Xiangnan?

But then she thought about it and realized something didn't make sense. If Bai Wei wanted to provoke Gu Xiangnan, she should have done it openly and honestly, not secretly.

Could they be educated youth from other villages?

Seeing that Wen Li was deep in thought, Chen Yan and Li Xiangxiang didn't disturb her.

Once they returned to the educated youth compound, the two of them couldn't wait to ask the question.

"Little Pear, have you guessed something?"

"My intuition tells me that Jiang Yue'er's accident wasn't accidental, but we shouldn't talk about it outside. What if it really is Jiang Chen, and he acts out of desperation?"

Both of them made a shushing gesture.

"Don't worry, we definitely won't lie!"

After Li Xiangxiang left, Wen Li went to the front yard. Bai Wei and Gu Xiangnan were still arguing all the time, either because Gu Xiangnan had talked to some girl a few more words or because Bai Wei had glanced at someone else.

Anyway, if this crazy couple doesn't argue every day because of other people, Wen Li feels like the sun has risen in the west.

Wen Li walked over to Liu Xiu and handed her a handful of fruit candies.

Liu Xiu's lips twitched. "Wen, educated youth, just say what you want to say. Don't be like this."

"Ahem~" Wen Li coughed lightly, feigning an apology. "You live with Bai Wei, have you noticed her sneaking out at night?"

Liu Xiu felt much more relaxed when he saw that Wen Li was asking about Bai Wei.

"I sleep well, so I really didn't notice. But I did see her get up at night once, so I didn't pay attention. As for whether she left the educated youth compound, I really don't know!"

"You're asking me? I know the answer!"

A sudden female voice rang out from behind the two of them, startling them both.

Upon seeing Niu Zhaodi, Wen Li patted her chest. "What are you doing here?"

Niu Zhaodi looked at Wen Li with a resentful expression. "Am I that insignificant? I've been here the whole time, okay?"

A hint of unease flashed across Wen Li's face, and she then took out a handful of fruit candies from her pocket and handed them to Niu Zhaodi.

"Then tell me, what happened?"

"A few nights ago, I got up to use the restroom and found Bai Wei's spot empty. I assumed she had also gotten up, but I didn't see her there either. I think she must have gone off to have an affair with Gu Zhiqing!"

Niu Zhaodi spoke confidently about her guess.

Wen Li didn't believe it. "You actually managed to control your mouth?"

Niu Zhaodi is a big mouth. Every little thing that happens at the educated youth compound is spilled out by her loose tongue. She didn't tell anyone about such an important matter. That's as bad as a red fish falling from the sky.

"I asked Bai Zhiqing, and she admitted it. She even gave me a handful of White Rabbit milk candies and asked me to keep it a secret!"

Niu Zhaodi deliberately crumpled the candy wrappers loudly, her eyes clearly showing her disdain.

Wen Li reached out, "Give me back my fruit candy!"

"No way, you gave this to me!" Niu Zhaodi immediately backed down. "Hehe, I was just joking!"

"Don't tell Bai Zhiqing about this. If you let it slip, give me back my candy!"

Niu Zhaodi said with a grin, "Hehe, don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped!"

Wen Li and Liu Xiu both gave her a look that said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Having heard the news, Wen Li watched the couple arguing for a while before returning to the backyard.

If Bai Wei were going out on a date with Gu Xiangnan, she would probably want the whole world to know.

So, will Bai Wei go out to meet Jiang Chen?

When did they meet, and why did they end up together?

Wen Li thought for a moment and then went to the cowshed again.

Ask Xie Chang'an to keep an eye on Jiang Chen's movements. If he goes into the mountains at night, call him along and make sure he doesn't follow him.

Xie Chang'an's external injuries had almost healed, but he had lost too much blood and was still very weak. Since he was fine, he readily agreed.
