Chapter 371 Wu Man Comes Back
"Uncle, don't be too sad."

Seeing that Jing Nuan couldn't ask anything for a long time, thinking that the old man lost his beloved wife at such an age, it is not good to continue to ask questions at this time, so he could only comfort him.

"It's all about you. If it weren't for you, how could my mother die? You are a disaster. I told my mother when I was a child that it was her kindness that drove you away."

While Jing Nuan was comforting Uncle Wu softly, Aunt Wu's son rushed in from the gate of the yard angrily.

"Xiao Man, don't talk nonsense."

Seeing his son, who seemed to have just come back from school and was full of rage all the way, Uncle Wu, who was crying heartbroken just now, suddenly stopped crying, and yelled at the boy named Wu Man.

"Dad, what time is it, and you are still talking for them. Although I was young, I was not ignorant. Why, can the troubles they bring to us be offset by the stinky money they give every month?" , and now my mother died because of this incident, it wasn't all her fault."

Unexpectedly, the young man was in a strong mood at this time, and when he saw his father persuading him, he even vented all his grievances and dissatisfaction, pointing at Jing Nuan and wanting to scold him.

"Slap." A loud slap came over, and Uncle Wu stood up angrily, pointing at Wu Man: "Who told you to come back? Didn't you tell you to study hard in school? Come back and make trouble for me!" right?"

"Dad." The young man covered his face and looked at his father in disbelief: "Mom is gone. Mom has been killed by these people. Why do you still speak for them? Just because they gave you money?" How much money do you want, I can earn it for you after I graduate."

"Nonsense." Uncle Wu yelled at Wu Man: "Jing Nuan came to visit your mother today. Your mother's death was just a coincidence and had nothing to do with her. She grew up in our family since she was a child. We are like relatives. If you say that, won't it make people feel cold?"

Hearing what Uncle Wu said, most of the doubts of the surrounding crowd disappeared immediately.

With Wu Man’s accusation before, everyone was more or less involved in the death of Jing Nuan and Aunt Wu. After all, it was a coincidence that Aunt Wu died just after Jing Nuan came to visit Aunt Wu.

But seeing Uncle Wu's explanation in this way, it is understandable that Wu Man should not blame this innocent little girl for his mother's death.

"Dad." Wu Man was about to cry, but seeing his father's threatening expression, he didn't speak in the end.

"Your mother is still inside, go in and see her, and burn some paper for her."

"Yes."

Wu Man wiped his tears with his sleeve and entered the mourning hall.

"Miss Jing, I'm really sorry. Aman is agitated because of her mother's death. You have to take it to heart."

"Uncle Wu, don't worry, I won't."

Jing Nuan said, and looked around again: "Aunt Wu's incident happened so suddenly, I'll just stay here for a few days, I grew up here, and when Aunt Wu encountered this kind of thing, I also have to Help, if you can help the police, it would be better to catch the murderer."

"Oh, Ms. Jing, how can this work? You must be very busy with things in your company. There is no way to entertain you because of the chaos here. I don't think you can help you if you stay here, or you should Let's go back."

Hearing what Jing Nuan said, Uncle Wu didn't agree at all, as if he was in a hurry to drive Jing Nuan away.

Jing Nuan didn't panic either: "Uncle Wu is right, so I won't force it."

"Don't worry, you have nothing to do here. Go back quickly. I can take care of everything here. Your children have grown up and you have your own affairs. I can't delay you."

After finishing speaking, as if to increase the credibility of the matter, Uncle Wu said: "There is also that brat Wu Man, who will stay here tomorrow, and I will drive him back to school. What does it look like?"

"Wu Man and Aunt Wu have a deep relationship. It's better to let Wu Man stay with you at home. It's not a big deal to delay your studies for a few days."

Jing Nuan felt more and more that Uncle Wu's reaction was very strange, as if the person who died was neither his wife nor the child's mother.

If it was said that Uncle Wu said these words to let him leave with peace of mind, it would make sense, but he treated Wu Man in the same way, which made people suspicious.

After listening to Jing Nuan's words, Uncle Wu reluctantly nodded: "You are all good boys, you don't need to worry about things here, you can go back soon."

Uncle Wu, no matter what, Aunt Wu watched me grow up. I will go back tomorrow, but I must stay here tonight to accompany Aunt Wu on the last journey.

As he said that, before Uncle Wu could speak, Jing Nuan asked preemptively again: "This is my small request, just promise me, I grew up here, if I can't even do this, That will be pointed out.”

Uncle Wu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute, but he didn't say anything in the end.

"Okay, then you can stay here for one night, and you can go to your business tomorrow, and I will take care of it myself, so I dare not delay you."

"Don't worry, Uncle Wu."

Seeing that Uncle Wu finally agreed, Jing Nuan took the opportunity to say, "Don't be too busy tonight, I'm going to keep watch for Aunt Wu, so just take a rest in the small room where my mother and I lived before."

After speaking, without waiting for Uncle Wu to say anything else, he walked towards Aunt Wu's mourning hall.

Wu Man was kneeling there with tears on his face, mechanically burning paper in the brazier, when he saw Jing Nuan coming in, he stared at her resentfully, but he didn't say anything after all.

"Are you going back to school tomorrow? Your father told me to leave tomorrow, and asked you to go back to school too."

Jing Nuan looked at the boy who was a few years younger than him and said.

"My mother is dead, so you don't take it seriously? Are you still busy with your company and making money? Is money really that important to you?"

"I also want to accompany Aunt Wu, but your father won't let me accompany you. I'm just asking you. If you want to stay, I have no objection."

Seeing that the young man treated him like an enemy, Jing Nuan didn't say anything more, but slowly added paper to the brazier, and for a while, the mourning hall became quiet.

"Do you think someone will come to worship your mother tonight?"

Jing Nuan asked suddenly.

"Who will come?"

"The murderer, the acquaintance your mother knew."

Jing Nuan looked at Wu Man and whispered.

Wu Man suddenly raised his head and looked at Jing Nuan.

Jing Nuan signaled Wu Man not to speak with his eyes, silently pointed out with his head, then threw the remaining paper into the brazier again, got up and left.

But Wu Man kept his head down, as if he hadn't noticed that Jing Nuan had left, still sobbing, and slowly put the paper in his hand into the brazier.
