Chapter 217: The Truth of the Matter
"Boy, what did you say? You're so beautiful, aren't you? It's impossible! Tomorrow you can bring the money and get it in person. The man on the other end of the line spoke.
After that, the other party hung up the phone with a direct 'snap'.
Shen Tao couldn't help frowning when he heard the short and rapid 'doodoo' sound on the phone, Shen Tao didn't expect that a wave of unsettled would rise again and again?
His father picked quarrels and provoked trouble, Shen Tao didn't have to think about it, he could directly deny this.
So, what happened to your father in town this afternoon?
No matter what, Shen Tao decided that he would go to the town early tomorrow morning to find out that if there was a grievance in it, Shen Tao would not let go of the person who wronged his father!
The dragon has reverse scales, and it kills when you touch it!
The dear relatives are Shen Tao's reverse scales, who dares to touch them, the consequences are absolutely unimaginable!
"Son, how is your dad?"
After Shen Tao hung up the phone, Shen's mother immediately asked.
"Mom, you should have heard it just now, my dad is in the bureau now." Shen Tao said.
"Your dad is just an honest man, how can he make trouble? It's impossible! Mother Shen was anxious like an ant on a hot pot.
"Mom, don't worry, at least my father is safe now."
Shen Tao paused and continued: "Mom, don't worry, I will go to the town early tomorrow morning to figure things out, and I will never allow my father to be wronged in any way!" ”
"This ...... That's all there is to it. Mother Shen could only reluctantly nod.
In order not to worry grandma, they didn't tell grandma about it, but just told grandma that Shen Tao's father had something to delay in the town for a day and would come back tomorrow.
Not long after Shen Tao hung up the phone, a shadow suddenly walked into the courtyard.
Shen Tao fixed his eyes and saw that this was not the young girl who followed the village chief before?
"Hey, isn't this cute? Come and sit! ”
Grandma Shen Tao in the yard, when she saw her, greeted her warmly.
Under the warm greeting of her grandmother, Mengmeng walked in front of Shen Tao and them.
"Let me introduce you to you, he is the granddaughter of the village chief, called Mengmeng." Grandma pointed to Meng Meng and introduced Shen Tao and Shen Tao's mother and sister.
Then the grandmother pointed to Shen Tao and the three of them and introduced them to Mengmeng: "Mengmeng, this is my grandson Shen Tao, this is my granddaughter Shen Xuan'er, and this is my second daughter-in-law Zhao Cuihua." ”
"You don't know, Meng Meng is good, these years, Meng Meng came back every three or five days to send me some vegetables, send some food, when the family is short of firewood, rice, oil and salt, Meng Meng often secretly brings me it."
When Grandma said this, her face was already filled with a happy smile.
"Mengmeng, it's nice to meet you, thank you for taking such good care of my grandma all these years." Shen Tao stood up with a smile and said gratefully to Mengmeng.
To be honest, Shen Tao didn't expect that this young girl named Meng Meng would be so simple and kind.
"It's all from a village, and I give things to my grandmother a lot of times, which is also what my grandfather means, you should be grateful to my grandfather."
Mengmeng looked a little embarrassed in the face of Shen Tao's gratitude.
"Uh, by the way, you're here to see my grandma, right? You're a girl, aren't you scared when you run out so late? Shen Tao said suspiciously.
By this time, it was getting dark, and it was obvious that when Meng Meng went back later, it would definitely be completely dark.
The night in the countryside is not as good as in the city, there are no street lights, it is dark, and the road can only be illuminated by a little moonlight. 【】
Generally, men who are a little less timid do not dare to walk alone at night in the countryside, let alone such a girl.
"Of course I'm here to see grandma, but ...... I...... I'm still looking for you something. Meng Meng said in the end, it seemed a little difficult to speak.
"Looking for me?" Shen Tao was stunned.
Shen Tao was a little puzzled, he and this Meng Meng met for the first time today, and they had never had anything before, so why did this Meng Meng find himself?
"That's right! I'm looking for you, there are some things I want to talk to you about, but we're going to talk about it alone. Meng Meng nodded.
"Uh...... It's all a family here, so you can just tell me if there's anything you want. Shen Tao said directly.
When Meng Meng heard this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "What? Are you afraid that I will eat you as a girl? I really can only talk to you about this matter alone. ”
When Shen Tao heard this, he couldn't help but smile awkwardly, and then said, "This ...... Okay, as long as you're not afraid of me eating you. ”
After finishing speaking, Shen Tao stood up directly.
Immediately afterwards, the two walked out of the courtyard gate side by side and came to a big tree outside the courtyard gate.
It is now New Year's Day, and the weather has already turned cold, especially at night, with gusts of cold wind blowing, but Shen Tao doesn't feel anything, he is also wearing very thin clothes, after all, he is a cultivator.
"Shen Tao, aren't you cold when you wear such a thin one?" After coming to the big tree, Meng Meng asked curiously.
"Of course it's not cold."
Shen Tao smiled slightly: "You let me come out, won't you just say this?" ”
"Of course not, I came to you to tell you about your grandfather." Meng Meng said.
"My grandfather's business?"
After Shen Tao heard Mengmeng's words, he was stunned, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a serious expression.
"You must be wondering how your grandfather died, right?" Meng Meng said.
"Of course, it's just...... People don't want to say, why did you come all the way to tell me? Shen Tao asked puzzled.
Shen Tao really felt very strange about this, this Meng Meng had nothing to do with him, let alone anything to do with it, why did he come to tell him something that everyone didn't want to mention?
"Let's listen to what I told about your grandfather first, I'm telling you why." Meng Meng said.
"Good! You say. Shen Tao nodded solemnly.
Although Shen Tao still doesn't understand, why Mengmeng is kind enough to come and tell him about his grandfather.
However, isn't the reason for his grandfather's death the one thing Shen Tao wants to know most now?
Before, Shen Tao was still having a headache because he couldn't ask the truth of the matter, but now someone took the initiative to come to the door to tell him, which is a good thing.
Therefore, Shen Tao decided, no matter what, to listen to Mengmeng's words first.
"Didn't my grandfather tell you today, your grandfather was hit by a car during the Spring Festival five years ago, right? That's exactly how it happened, and many people in the village knew about it. Meng Meng said.
"That's right, then, who drove my car and killed my grandfather? How did things work? Why didn't I even get my grandfather's body back? ”
Shen Tao directly expressed the doubts in his heart.
"Don't worry, wait for me to speak slowly."
Meng Meng continued: "There is a person in our village named Chongkang, he is the most powerful person in our village, this Chongkang is doing big business in the county, and he is the son-in-law of the county secretary. ”
"I remember that it was during the Spring Festival five years ago, Chongkang's family drove a car home for the New Year, at that time, our village could afford to drive a car for his family, so Chongkang was very spirited."
"After the Spring Festival, Chongkang and his son Chong Shiming met friends in the town and drank a lot of wine, and then Chong Shiming drove back, Chongkang also sat in the car, and when he drove to the entrance of the village, the car lost control and hit your grandfather, directly hitting your grandfather on a stone on the side of the road."
"Because Chongshi Ming also drank a lot of wine, it is said that after hitting someone, he stepped on the accelerator and directly knocked your grandfather to death on that stone, because it was the New Year, and it was afternoon, and many people in the village witnessed all this."
After saying it in one breath, Meng Meng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is that so?"
Shen Tao frowned, and then continued to ask, "What's next?" ”
"Later, your grandfather's body was dragged away by the hospital, and there was no news, no matter how your grandmother went up to ask, there was no result, as for your uncle Shen Jun, it is said that he went to the county to ask once, but he was intimidated, and then gave your uncle 10,000 yuan, and your uncle never dared to ask about this matter again."
Meng Meng paused, and then continued: "His son Chong Shiming had just entered politics at the time, and someone died in that accident, and Chong Shiming had to bear all the responsibility for that accident, if this matter was reported and handled, it would definitely affect Chong Shiming's career." ”
"In order to prevent his son Chongshi Ming from having a black spot in the future, Chongkang took the body from the hospital, and it is said that he secretly disposed of it, after all, this Chongkang has a lot of influence in our Qingchuan County, and this matter will not be resolved in the end, and the people in the village are afraid of Chongkang's powerful power and dare not mention this matter."
Speaking of which, the truth of the whole incident was finally presented in Shen Tao's mind.
