43 The Truth

“Who?” the village chief asked.

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “I went to the back of the mountain to pick up firewood once. I heard from w.a.n.g Laizi that the girl from the Su family is really beautiful. If he can touch her twice, he’ll be happy for the rest of his life! I suspect that w.a.n.g Laizi went to provoke Su Jinniang and was killed by her!”

Everyone was shocked!

Su Jinniang frowned.

Madam Fang turned around. “Fatty Su! Don’t slander my daughter! w.a.n.g Laizi doesn’t dare to provoke my daughter! My daughter didn’t kill w.a.n.g Laizi! Jinniang hasn’t gone out since she came back from the field. She has been working at home! Our entire family can testify!”

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and said calmly, “You’re family, so you naturally testify for her.”

What they used to refute Fatty Su just now was used on Su Jinniang. They did not believe that Su Jinniang would kill someone, but Madam Wan did not jump out to refute. Could it be... that there was really something going on?

The reason why Madam Wan was silent was that her son had indeed coveted Su Jinniang...

Madam Zhou snorted. “How can a woman kill w.a.n.g Laizi? Do you think everyone is like you, a fatty with brute force!?”

Su Cheng said fiercely, “Who are you calling a fatty? Believe it or not, I’ll slap you!”

Madam Zhou shrank back.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Then she must have an accomplice!”

Su Jinniang clenched her fists and said, “Stop arguing! When w.a.n.g Laizi was in trouble, I was helping in the kitchen at home. My mother said that it was snowing and asked me to close the back door of the kitchen. Su Daya, didn’t you see me?”

Madam Fang hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes! I asked Jinniang to close the door!”

Su Xiaoxiao looked enlightened. “Oh, that person is you. I didn’t see clearly when it was snowing. I thought it was your sister, Yu Niang.”

Madam w.a.n.g said, “Yu Niang is at her in-laws’ house! She’s about to give birth. Her body is heavy, so she can’t come back at all!”

All the villagers knew about this.

Su Jinniang said to the village chief, “With Su Daya as my witness, my suspicion is cleared, right?”

“Of course,” the village chief nodded. “In that case, the two of you were near your house at that time. The murderer was neither you nor Su Daya.”

Madam Wan howled again. “Then who killed my son?”

“This question...” Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze swept across and landed on the daughter-in-law of the Wan family, Chunya.” Why don’t you ask your daughter-in-law? ”

Chunya trembled.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her with a faint smile. “Chunya, you were the one who told your mother-in-law that I had a grudge against w.a.n.g Laizi, right? You saw me going to the back mountain to pick firewood, right?”

Madam Wan said, “Fatty Su! What are you trying to say!”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Auntie Wan, your son’s death is definitely related to your daughter-in-law! She deliberately chose a time when no one can testify for me and slandered me! However, G.o.d’s plan worked. Su Jinniang saw me when she went to close the back door.”

“Daya is right!” Su Cheng always trusted his fat daughter without reservation. “Wan, your daughter-in-law was the one who discovered the corpse. It was still warm when she was discovered. Perhaps she just killed your son!”

Madam Wan suddenly looked at Chunya!

Chunya’s face was pale. She hurriedly waved her hand. “Mom... No... It’s not me... I didn’t kill Dacai... I swear... I didn’t...”

w.a.n.g Laizi was also called w.a.n.g Dacai. Although Chunya said that she did not kill him, she was clearly feeling guilty.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her deeply. “Even if you didn’t kill him, you should know who the murderer is.”

Madam Wan grabbed Chunya’s arm tightly. “Tell me! Who is the murderer? Tell me! Tell me quickly!”

Chunya burst into tears. “I can’t say...”

“Tell me! Who killed my son?”

“That’s right, Chunya. Just say it, right? Don’t take the blame for others.”

“Chunya, don’t be stupid. Tell me. Your man died. This is a blood feud.”

“I’m afraid you have a shameful relationship with the murderer, right? Otherwise, why would you keep your mouth shut for him?”

The villagers gradually began to speculate maliciously from their initial kind words.

It was not their fault. Chunya’s actions were too abnormal.

Madam Wan also began to suspect something. She pinched Chunya’s arm hard. “Tell me! Which wild man is it!”

Chunya’s tears fell like rain, but she refused to say who the murderer was.

Su Xiaoxiao looked into the distance. “Stop fighting. The murderer is here.”

Everyone looked in the direction Su Xiaoxiao was pointing.

The little bully of the Su family was pushing a man who was tied up and walking over in the snow.

Behind the two of them were three little bullies.

The man walked slowly, and Su Ergou kicked his b.u.t.t. “Go!”

The three little bullies picked up the little whip made by their uncle!

Dahu said fiercely, “Let’s go!”

Erhu also said fiercely, “If you don’t leave, I’ll slap you!”

Xiaohu waved his leather whip angrily. “Whip you!”

When they got closer, everyone recognized the man who was tied up.

“w.a.n.g Laizi?” Madam He exclaimed.

Auntie Liu said, “Ah! The corpse has come back to life!”

Everyone scattered!

Auntie Liu jumped behind Su Cheng.

Unexpectedly, Su Cheng also flashed behind his fat daughter.

Auntie Liu was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Dad, are you afraid of ghosts?”

Su Cheng said, “No, I’m just worried that you’ll be afraid. Don’t worry, I’ll always be your strongest backing!”

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Su Ergou sighed. “Why are you hiding? w.a.n.g Laizi is not dead!”

The villagers looked at each other.

Only her mother, Madam Wan, came to her son in a daze. She raised her hand and touched her son’s face. “It’s warm... warm and alive... What, what’s going on? You clearly stopped breathing just now...”

Su Ergou snorted. “He held it in!”

Madam Wan grabbed his wrist. “You have a pulse too. I couldn’t feel it just now.”

Su Ergou casually threw a small iron ball to the ground. “Put this under your armpit and you can temporarily lose your pulse. What a petty trick!”

The villagers heaved a long sigh of relief. As long as he wasn’t a zombie...

Speaking of which, what was wrong with w.a.n.g Laizi? He was alive and well, so why did he pretend to die and frame someone?

Madam Wan did not distinguish between right and wrong and embarra.s.sed herself! Everyone collectively forgot that they had also wanted to chase Little Su’s family out of the village.

The village chief asked solemnly, “w.a.n.g Dacai, why did you do that?”

w.a.n.g Laizi remained silent.

The village chief said seriously, “Everyone, disperse! w.a.n.g Dacai, Madam Wan, Chunya, come to my house!”

He was going to interrogate the family alone.

Everyone did not disperse so easily and rushed to the village chief’s house to watch the commotion.

Su Cheng went too. He was going to beat up that b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Even though the b.a.s.t.a.r.d had already been beaten up by Su Ergou.

Su Ergou came to Su Xiaoxiao with a smile. “Sister, was I dashing just now?”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Who taught you?”

Su Ergou replied, ” Brother-in-law... ”

Wei Ting had not been in the central room for a long time. She thought that he was indifferent to her matter and had returned to the room to rest. She did not expect this.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How did he know that w.a.n.g Laizi isn’t dead?”

Su Ergou said, “I don’t know. I only found out when I went there! Brother-in-law said that he wanted to go to the crime scene to find clues!”

Wei Ting was much smarter and more meticulous than she had imagined.

Su Xiaoxiao looked around and asked, “Where is he?”
