Chapter 853 Seeing the Essence

Wen Jiahong believed in Lianyi. After all, she had put a lot of thought into Wen Zhaoming's matter.

In fact, when she received the news that three members of Mrs. Wen's family had overturned their carriage and froze to death, she had some speculations in her mind, but she neither told her mother nor the police officers who came to report the news, especially the county police. After the police concluded the incident as an accidental death.

The two children of Mrs. Wen's family are also living a bad life now. They can only be said to be starving to death, living in a slovenly manner, and have no one to discipline them. After all, they are other people's children. It doesn't matter if they are too heavy or too light. Whether it's good or bad can only be decided by themselves.

As the future head of Wenjia Village, Wen Jiahong also had to do something for the village. He would occasionally visit Aunt Wen's house. One time he went there at noon, and he heard the twins quarreling.

The reason seems to be that Wen Zhaolian wanted to eat a piece of candy, but Wen Zhaofeng refused to give it, saying that someone else gave it to him, so the two started fighting for it. However, Wen Zhaofeng was not as strong as Zhaolian, and the candy ended up in Zhaolian's. In the mouth.

"Wen Zhaofeng, you have to rely on me to support you in the future. If you get good food and drink, you must give it to me first."

"Why? I am also my mother's child."

"You are a boy and cannot support your family, just like Brother Ming. He is already so old and has to rely on Sister Zhaoyue to keep the house and land at home.

If it weren't for Zhaoyue, the second aunt's house and land would have belonged to our family, and my mother would have planned to ruin Brother Ming's innocence!

So you have to listen to me from now on, otherwise I will marry you off early."

"Wow"

After all, Wen Zhaofeng was young, so he was frightened and started crying.

But Wen Jiahong, who listened to the conversation between the two outside the door, felt cold in her heart. It was obvious that Aunt Wen and her husband did not avoid their youngest daughter when they were discussing the matter, so the other party could say such things. Then the three Wen family members should have ended up like this. It's retribution.

Then Wen Jiahong turned around and left Aunt Wen's house. She decided that as long as she ensured that the two of them did not starve to death, other things would be done by sending them to school and letting her husband take care of them.

Immediately afterwards, spring plowing began. After the rice was planted in the ground, the diligent husband of the village took his half-grown children to pick wild vegetables on the outskirts of Liangshan Mountain.

The cabbage, radishes and potatoes stored in the winter are almost eaten. It’s hard to find green leafy vegetables. Naturally, I can pick as many as I can. When the weather is hot, some wild vegetables will be difficult to eat when they grow old.

As a result, less than three days after picking, a husband in the village discovered an unrecognizable corpse. It had obviously been eaten by wild beasts. The clothes were in tatters. There were still arms and legs missing, and the face was even more disfigured. Can't watch.

The man who went to pick wild vegetables was so frightened that he let out a "ouch" and his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground. Then he rolled around and went to report the news to the village chief.

The village chief was also frightened, and immediately summoned the villagers to nod their heads to see if someone had sneaked into the mountains during the winter, and ended up directly feeding the wild beasts in the mountains.

After ordering a circle of people, all the adults and children in Wenjia Village were there. Even the old man who usually didn't go out much walked out of the room with a cane.

"Mom, I went from house to house and saw that there are many people in our village, except Wen Xiaoxiao. She was not in the house all winter. The house was drafty and accumulated a thick layer of dust. If this body is from outside, Villagers, we are going to notify the county police."

Wen Jiahong wiped the sweat from her head and said directly.

"You said Jiahong isn't here?"

The village chief seemed to have thought of something and asked again.

"Yes, she only comes back every summer and autumn."

"Go and see."

Village Chief Wen took his daughter to the place where the corpse was parked and said to Wen Jiahong:

"Hong'er, go and turn her over, and I'll look at the back of her neck."

Wen Jiahong obviously didn't want to touch the mutilated and unrecognizable corpse, but she didn't dare to leave it alone under her mother's orders, so she could only find two sticks and use her skill to turn the body over.

The head on the opponent's neck was still there, but it had rotted and swollen, giving off a pungent smell, and there was also rotten flesh on the neck. Village Chief Wen pinched his nose and stepped forward to check. His pupils shrank and he said directly to his daughter:

"You tell the clan elders in the village to bury this person! This person is Wen Xiaoxiao."

"What? Mother, are you sure?"

Wen Jiahong was surprised. She really couldn't see Wen Xiaoxiao's shadow in the pile of white bones and rotten flesh on the ground.

"There is a red birthmark on the back of her neck, like a slap mark. I looked carefully just now and there is a smaller half. It must be hers."

Village Chief Wen sighed and said.

"Why did this scourge come to Liangshan? She has never participated in a single autumn hunt."

Wen Jiahong felt that it was too unlucky.

"I guess I want to trap a rabbit or something. You can find someone to make arrangements for the funeral."

Village Chief Wen waved his hand directly.

"Yes, mother."

After the people in Wenjia Village learned that the corpse whose face could not be seen was Wen Xiaoxiao, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then they were all glad in their hearts that this scourge was finally dead. This shows how much Wen Xiaoxiao was despised.

After Wen Jiahong arranged Wen Xiaoxiao's funeral arrangements, she even made a special trip to Sujiazhuang to tell Wen Zhaoming about the incident. According to his observation, Brother Ming was also quite surprised, just because the other party had had his thoughts on him before, so for Wen Zhaoming, Brother Ming didn't care at all about this man's death.

Lianyi later heard Brother Ming mention it and asked Hehua:

"Why was it discovered so quickly? Wasn't it abandoned in the mountains?"

"It is estimated that after spring, the wild beasts in the mountains came out to look for food, and then there was a fight, and the body was brought out."

Hehua explained calmly.

Lianyi didn't say much after hearing this. Anyway, Wenjiacun had ended the matter unexpectedly.

Because of these two things together, Wen Jiahong was sure that Miss Su was really interested in Brother Ming and would not let these rumors spread all over the world.

"Then you go to Sujiazhuang by yourself tomorrow, meet Brother Ming first, see what he means, and then explore Miss Su's tone.

Since I am responsible for this matter, I must finish it from beginning to end, so as not to deceive the children of Wenjia Village and make outsiders laugh. "

The village chief was a veteran, so after hearing the rumors, he did not immediately take action. Instead, he asked his daughter to understand the situation first.

"Don't worry, mother, I will go out early tomorrow morning to avoid the people in the village."

Wen Jiahong responded immediately.

When the sky was gray the next day, she set off with a bamboo basket on her back to meet Brother Ming in Sujiazhuang. She had a ready excuse to bring some food to the brother and sister. After all, the spring planting had just ended, and it was the time when the harvest was slow.

Wen Jiahong successfully met Ming Geer and Yueyue, and after giving the food to Ming Geer, she went straight to the topic:

"Brother Ming, people in the village have heard some rumors recently, saying that Miss Su has reached the period of filial piety, but she has not married you yet. I'm afraid your marriage has changed."

"Huh? Why didn't I know that my marriage to Brother Ming had changed?"
