I become a god in another world

Chapter 283 Unfinished Promise
Chapter 283

"Fusheng." Kuai Manzhou pulled Zhao Fusheng's hand, and after she lowered her head, the child couldn't wait to ask:

"What happened on Huangquan Road?"

After she said this, Liu Yizhen was not surprised, but the Fan brothers looked at her curiously.

In the minds of most people in the Demon Suppression Bureau, Kuai Manzhou is not very curious.

She doesn't like to communicate with other people. Most of the time, apart from sticking to Zhao Fusheng, she never interacts with other people in the Demon Suppression Bureau. In fact, except for Zhao Fusheng and Meng Po, other people are a little scared of her.

Fan Wujiu secretly glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that she was angry, he thought that this child was quite cute.

"I'll tell you when I get back."

Zhao Fusheng said something to her, then turned his head back and looked at Ge Daya.

"..."

Kuai Manzhou pouted the corners of his mouth, looking a little unhappy, but he didn't say much. He just kicked the dirt on the ground with his toes.

"Sir, what happened to Huangquan Road?"

Cai Datou shrank his head, wondering why the faces of these officials from the Demon Suppression Bureau changed when he mentioned that Yang Guiying married to a manor near Huangquan Road.

For some reason, he felt a little chilly at this moment, so he rubbed his arms and asked.

Zhao Fusheng did not answer him.

She asked Cai Datou:
"How do you know that Yang Tiehan and his family are going to Yang Guiying's house?"

Although Cai Datou was also curious whether something had happened on Huangquan Road that made these big shots so concerned, Zhao Fusheng didn't want to mention it, and he had no right to continue asking.

Seeing that she continued to ask questions, he answered honestly:

"I heard that Guiying is pregnant, and this baby might be a boy."

After he finished speaking, Zhao Fusheng said:
"In other words, the Yang family is going to visit their married daughter?"

"Maybe." Cai Datou nodded.

Zhao Fusheng frowned when he heard this.

She felt that there was something wrong with what Cai Datou said.

Yang Tiehan's second daughter married into a village near Huangquan Road. From what Cai Datou said, we can infer that Yang Guiying had trouble having children after marriage. A more detailed interpretation is that Yang Guiying may have given birth to children, but only daughters, not boys.

For the villagers at that time, continuing the family line should be a big event, so it makes sense for Yang Guiying's family to go see her when she became pregnant.

But visiting a pregnant daughter should have been a good thing. Why did only the adults from the Yang family go, leaving a half-grown child at home?
When she thought of this, she turned to ask Ge Daya:
"When you met Yang Tiehan last night, did he look happy?"

"Look?" Ge Daya was stunned for a moment, then replied:

"It seems, not very happy——"

"That's right." Zhao Fusheng nodded.

"How is this right?" Cai Datou was a little puzzled, "What does your Excellency mean by this?"

Zhao Fusheng explained:

"I told you that the reason Yang Tiehan fetched water last night was because he had to take his family out today."

Ge Daya and Cai Datou looked at each other, still not understanding the meaning of her words, but nodded in unison.

Fan Wujiu felt relieved now.

In fact, he didn't understand it, but the other people in the Demon Suppression Bureau were too smart. Whenever everyone was discussing something, he felt very uncomfortable as the only one who didn't understand it.

At this time, these villagers were also very stupid, which made him feel much more relaxed.

"But his family members going out, what does this have to do with his happiness or not?" Cai Datou asked timidly.

"Because the people he took out were two young and strong sons," Zhao Fusheng replied.

Most of the villagers still didn't understand. Fan Bisi shook his head and explained for Zhao Fusheng:

"If it's a happy event, the whole family should go to visit a pregnant woman, but Yang Tiehan only brought his two strong sons and left his youngest son at home. He must have planned to bring his two sons to support the occasion, fearing that the Yang family would suffer if there was a conflict."

The reason why he didn't bring his youngest son was that Yang Laoyao was too young and wouldn't be able to help if he went, and he might even suffer a loss.

After Fan Bisi's explanation, the villagers immediately understood.

"I see." Cai Datou nodded, then became puzzled:
"But Guiying's pregnancy is a good thing. Why would Tiehan and the others bring their son to cause trouble?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone on the outskirts of the crowd whispered:
"Rutabaga, you are not well-informed."

"..."

When Cai Datou heard the name "Datoucai", he became furious.

He forgot his obedience and timidity in front of Zhao Fusheng and others, and said angrily:
"Damn you Yu Lao San, what nonsense are you talking about in front of adults?"

"..." Zhao Fusheng's mouth twitched, and he continued to shout:
"Yu Lao San, who is speaking, come in."

There was a moment of commotion among the villagers who formed the human wall.

Soon, an old man as thin as a monkey squeezed in.

He was wearing tattered clothes and was shivering with cold.

A pair of hands were tucked into two sleeves that were rotten like brushes. When he saw Zhao Fusheng, his knees softened and he knelt down and kowtowed:

"Hello, sir."

"Get up and talk." Zhao Fusheng motioned him to get up and answer.

He thought for a moment, sat back on his heels, and said:
"I dare not get up and answer my master's words sitting like this."

Zhao Fusheng nodded.

"You just said that Cai Datou is not well-informed. What do you mean?" she asked.

Yu Lao San said:

"Turnip--" He blurted out and then realized that it was inappropriate. He looked at Cai Datou with some guilt.

Cai Datou's slightly dark face turned red, and his fists were clenched so tightly that the veins on the back of his hands bulged out. However, due to the presence of Zhao Fusheng and others, he did not speak rashly.

"——Datou and Cai Datou were right about Yang Tiehan and his family going to see Guiying, but Guiying's pregnancy was only reported a while ago."

Yu Lao San said:
"Your Excellency is right. I'm afraid Yang Tiehan and his family are going to look for Guiying's man to bring bad luck."

After hearing this, Zhao Fusheng finally got some useful clues.

Her expression brightened:
"How do you say this?"

"Your Excellency may not know that Guiying got married early. She married at the age of fourteen to Lijiaao on Huangquan Road. Her husband had four older sisters and only had him as his only child. The family was in a tight spot."

After Yu Lao San finished speaking, Zhao Fusheng raised his eyebrows:
"How do you know so well?"

He coughed:
"Sir, my wife is from the same village as Guiying's mother-in-law, and they are distant cousins. Because of this relationship, after Guiying got married, my wife became close to Guiying's mother, and they would occasionally talk, and she would tell me about it later."

"So that's it."

Although the relationship between Yu Laosan and Yang Tiehan's family is a bit complicated, generally speaking they can be considered relatives, so it makes sense that he knows some unknown things.

"Please continue." Zhao Fusheng said.

"Yes." Yu Lao San nodded and said:

"After Guiying got married, she didn't get pregnant for two or three years. Her mother-in-law is not easy to deal with. She is well-known for her sharp tongue in the surrounding area. In the past few years, Guiying suffered a lot from her."

When Yu Lao San said this, a look of pity appeared on his face: "It was not until two years ago that I finally had news of pregnancy, which was considered a relief. Unfortunately, I gave birth to a daughter, who was beaten by the man before she was a month old."

The villagers of Liutu Village were half listening to the lively tone, and half sighing as they thought of Yang Tiehan's current fate.

'Ugh. '

Yu Lao San sighed:

"A month ago, Guiying's mother came to my house to do needlework with my wife. While they were talking, Guiying's mother said that Guiying was pregnant again."

Yang Guiying's mother-in-law was not in a good mood about her daughter-in-law's pregnancy because of her previous granddaughter, but she went to ask an experienced maid in the village what the gender of the fetus in her daughter-in-law's belly was.

"The man calculated for a long time and said that Guiying was still pregnant with a girl, but there was a way to change the baby in her belly from a girl to a boy, so he prescribed a prescription for her."

Zhao Fusheng did not say anything, so Yu Lao San continued:
"She took this prescription for more than half a month, and a few days ago I heard that she had her period, and she lost the baby."

Zhao Fusheng asked:
"When did the Yang family know about this?"

Yu Lao San rolled his eyes and said, "It should be the day before yesterday."

After he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Fusheng raised his eyebrows and said:

"The day before yesterday evening, Guiying came to talk to my mother-in-law and started crying. After she left, I asked my mother-in-law what they talked about. My mother-in-law said that Guiying's mother-in-law asked someone to send her a rotten egg."

"A few eggs?"

Fan Wujiu looked confused, so someone explained to him:

"Sir, it's just a rotten egg that can't hatch a chicken. This is scolding the daughter of the Yang family for not laying eggs."

This move is so humiliating.

The Yang family could not swallow this humiliation, so after discussing with his family, Yang Tiehan decided to go to Lijiazhuang early this morning to vent his anger for his daughter.

Ge Daya suddenly realized:
"So that's how it is. No wonder Yang Tiehan looked so depressed last night."

Because of this, the Yang family made preparations that night, went to bed early, and got up early the next day. However, they did not know that they had attracted a ghost disaster and nine members of the family died overnight.

From now on, I'm afraid no one will support Yang Guiying anymore.

After hearing the reason, everyone in the Demon Suppression Division was silent for a moment.

Not long after, Kuai Manzhou, who had been sitting quietly beside Zhao Fusheng, suddenly said:

"I'll go and vent her anger for her later."

The child's words broke the silence.

Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division, including the Liutu Village, was stunned. It took Cai Datou's eyes a long while to regain focus. He turned around twice, looked at the young Kuai Manzhou, moved his lips, and wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhao Fusheng, Erfan, and Liu Yizhen, who was standing there carrying the coffin, he didn't say anything.

"it is good."

Zhao Fusheng nodded.

"Have you informed the two married daughters about the accident involving the Yang family?" She touched the little girl's head and asked Cai Datou.

Cai Datou looked embarrassed:

"It happened suddenly, and the news hasn't spread yet. It's not the right time to go to the funeral—"

After he finished speaking, Ge Daya said:
"Why are we still going to a funeral? All the members of the Yang family have died, not even a half-month-old baby escaped. Who will hold a funeral for us?"

As soon as Ge Daya finished speaking, the village fell silent.

When people leave, the tea is cool.

People were not rich these days and no one had any surplus food in their jars.

When Yang Tiehan's family of nine got into trouble, the villagers began to sympathize with them, but once food and other things were involved, they began to become petty.

Zhao Fusheng took a deep breath:

"It doesn't matter whether the funeral is held or not." She looked at Cai Datou:
"But as the head of Liutu Village, you should take the lead in some matters."

Cai Datou was a little anxious when he heard this, and was about to speak, but Zhao Fusheng said again:
"The dead must be buried in peace. How can we just throw them away casually? You are the village chief. Arrange some villagers to bury the nine members of this family. Then go back to the county town magic department to collect part of the subsidy."

She thought of the time when she was bought into the Demon Suppression Division by Er Fan, and took the example of Zhao Fusheng being worth five cents, and she said:
"You will receive 45 cents in total. You can decide how to distribute it later."

When Cai Datou heard this, his eyes lit up.

The villagers who had previously resisted, fearing that the incident would happen to them, became anxious and rushed to sign up to bury the nine members of the Yang family.

After finishing these chores, Zhao Fusheng asked again:
"Have the identities of the other members of the Yang family been confirmed? Have you found anything similar to a head?"

Cai Datou received Zhao Fusheng's promise to collect the money. He was very excited and said:

"It's all confirmed. There was a naked person in the toilet at the time. Judging from the figure, it should be Yang Da. His wife and son were found on the bed. The child was probably still breastfeeding before the accident. This should be correct."

He spoke in a hurry, and then he slowed down after finishing this paragraph:

"Both daughters are working in front of the stove."

After finishing speaking, he added:
"After the officer surnamed Wang left, we also thought about finding Yang's head. After all, after death, the body should be complete. But we searched the house and outside, but couldn't find it. There was not even a little blood."

The people of Liutu Village thought this was too weird and were worried that it was really haunted, so when they were destroying the body, no one coveted the Yang family's rotten bed and mattress and other belongings. They wrapped the body together and threw them all into the manure pit.

Zhao Fusheng asked again:
"Have you touched anything in this room?"

"Yes."

Cai Datou said:

"We guessed that someone from the county would come after the envoy returned to report, so we wanted to pack up before the adults came, fearing that they would find out, so we packed up everything that needed to be packed up."

As soon as he said this, Zhao Fusheng fell into a brief silence.

She observed Cai Datou carefully.

Perhaps it was because of the tax cuts and the money he received from collecting dead bodies, his cheeks looked glowing, his eyes were bright, and he looked full of energy, which was in stark contrast to Wang Hun's drowsiness after he finished telling the story of the ghost case.

Zhao Fusheng stared at Cai Datou with a look that made him shudder:

"My lord, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Are you sleepy?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

Her words were incoherent and Cai Datou was stunned for a moment.

In fact, his reaction was very obvious. Zhao Fusheng already had the answer in his mind. He then turned to ask Ge Daya next to him:
"Have you ever carried the bodies of the Yang family members and touched their belongings?"

Ge Daya felt uneasy at her look, but nodded after hearing this:
"Touch, touch—"

"Are you sleepy?" Zhao Fusheng asked again.

Ge Daya hesitated:
"I……"

Although the old man's speech was lisp, he was quick to react and spoke logically, and he didn't look like he was still sleepy.

Zhao Fusheng turned to look at Yu San again:

"What about you?"

Yu San had seen her ask two questions in a row before, so he was already prepared. Hearing this, he quickly shook his head:
"I went to bed early last night. As I get older, I don't get sleepy as much. I'm not sleepy at all."

She glanced at the other villagers, and they all shook their heads, knowing what she meant.

"No, not sleepy."

As a result, things fell into a vicious circle.
