"That's right, big head! What about your daughter-in-law and children? ”

Yuan Datou smiled slightly, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes: "My daughter-in-law is not in good health, she has flowed twice before, and she won't be able to conceive in the future, and now it's just the two of us, it's quite comfortable!" ”

Hao Minyuan nodded slightly embarrassed: "What about your daughter-in-law?" ”

"I'm at home, too! There's one thing you don't know - my daughter-in-law had a car accident a few years ago and her face was disfigured, so ...... So ......"

Hao Minyuan was startled at first, and then waved his hand: "We understand this!" Rest assured! ”

As he spoke, he entered the courtyard.

I subconsciously looked around, there were five large tiled houses, the yard was paved with dark red tiles, and it was very clean. As soon as I entered the house, I didn't see anyone, but heard the rhythmic sound of chopping ribs from next door.

"Stay for dinner at night! Our brother must have a good drink! Yuan Datou was very enthusiastic, pulled me and Hao Minyuan to sit on the right seat, and then stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture to the shy Xiao He.

I wasn't a little embarrassed, so I had to be polite.

"Big brother, you can sit too!"

Yuan Datou patted me on the shoulder and grinned: "Brother, you don't know the relationship between me and Lao Haoren, right?" When we were in the army, we slept in bunk beds in the same shift, and we wore underwear, and at that time we joked that in this life, except for the daughter-in-law who can't share it, everything else can be shared. ”

Hao Minyuan was also a little moved: "Yes! I owe it to you that time that I saved me, otherwise I would have been reincarnated again, and now I am a teenager. ”

I didn't know how to answer, so I nodded in accord.

"To this day, I can't forget the cold in the ice cave! Then...... At that time, I also found you by mistake, who knew that after I put your head on you, I ran out of strength. After saying that, he laughed twice.

"By the time I woke up and notified the troops to come and rescue you, I was already frozen......"

I actually saw Hao Minyuan with tears in his eyes.

Yuan Datou poured us tea: "Okay, let's not talk about the past!" ”

Hao Minyuan sighed: "Brother! If it weren't for this, you wouldn't have been demobilized early, and maybe you'd be the bureau chief by now! ”

"Don't say that! Human life is destined by God, I have already seen it, not to mention that I am also very good now! "Hey hey again, but this time I could tell that he was smiling bitterly.

Boom! Boom!

My attention was drawn to the movement in the next room, and I subconsciously turned my head to look at it, and sat at my angle, just in time to see the inside room through the glass.

I saw a tall woman chopping vegetables, and because it was sideways, only half of her face could be seen. Long legs, very white skin, and a noticeably small waist.

This kid is not shallow! A woman of this stature is rare in the countryside...... To what extent can the disfigurement be ruined, not to mention that this figure is not affected......

I was thinking about it when the woman turned around and walked out with two plates of fruit.

Although she knew that she was disfigured by a car accident and was mentally prepared, she was still startled the moment she saw the woman's face.

The woman's skin on the left side of her face was white and tender, but the right side of her face was covered with deep scars, which may have been healed later, causing the entire half of her face to be gray and look very strange.

Isn't this the legendary yin and yang face!

I just felt shocked in my heart, and Xiao He on the side couldn't help but exclaim.

In order to avoid embarrassment, I quickly stood up and shouted very politely: "Hello sister-in-law".

The woman smiled slightly, placed the fruit bowl on the table, and then turned back to the back room again.

"Big head, take us to Zhang Laohan's house first! After finishing business, I won't get drunk with you, it's a big deal to stay at your house tonight. ”

Yuan Datou grinned: "Okay!" ”

He said a word to his daughter-in-law, and then led us out of the door.

"You said on the phone before that you came to investigate the murder case, maybe you don't understand! This old man Zhang is a good person, and the things that hurt nature and reason must have nothing to do with him! ”

Hao Minyuan nodded: "It involves the water monkey - we heard that someone has seen the water monkey coming out of his yard over the wall, and many people have confirmed that his family has been eating fish recently......"

"Oh?"

Yuan Datou nodded, and suddenly looked thoughtful, and stopped talking.

In less than a minute, I came to the front door of a house.

"It's here! At this point, he should be at home! ”

After that, Yuan Datou shouted twice into the house: "Uncle Zhang! Uncle Zhang! ”

A few barks came from the yard, large and small, at least three or five, all staring at us with unfriendly looks.

Two coughs were heard in the room.

"Who!" There was another old but loud voice.

"It's me! Xiao Yuan! There are three friends who want to ask you something! ”

Through the crack in the door, I saw an old man walking with a limp walking out, probably not too old.

"Xiao Yuan! I haven't seen you in a month, have I? ”

Yuan Datou smiled: "I've been home a few times before, but it's all at night, and I have to leave early the next morning, so I ...... "Nuwa Library."

You don't need to ask, you know that he is Zhang Laohan.

"Who are these three?"

"Oh! My comrade-in-arms, the captain of the criminal police team of the district police station, and the other two are his colleagues. ”

While speaking, Zhang Laohan opened the door.

"Please come in! I'm the only one at home, so it's a mess, you guys...... Don't mind! ”

I don't know if it's a matter of this village custom, Yuan Datou is so polite, and Zhang Laohan is also so polite!

Stepping into Mr. Zhang's yard, I first saw a few black dogs tethered to the jujube tree on one side, barking at us. On the other side there is a duck pen and a chicken coop, which are very delicately made, and in addition there are a few sheep in the yard.

Perhaps because we came in suddenly, a tanuki cat meowed twice and then jumped onto the jujube tree.

Sure enough, as they said, Zhang Laohan's house is simply a small zoo.

"What's the matter with me?"

Zhang Laohan asked Hao Minyuan with a smile.

"I want to learn about the water monkeys, there have been two murders on the side of the Yellow River recently, and we ......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Laohan, who was originally very friendly, seemed to cool down instantly, first frozen, and then stretched very long.

"Where are there water monkeys! Please get out, my house...... You are not welcome in my house! ”

After saying that, there was another violent cough.

Yuan Datou also seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and after laughing dryly, he came to the middle of the two to play a round: "Uncle Zhang, what's wrong?" People don't come to ask, ...... What are you doing with such a big fire? ”

Zhang Laohan didn't buy it, and snorted coldly: "What do you ask?" I don't know anything! ”

After saying that, he began to bombard us out.

"He is my comrade-in-arms, my brother, and today he is also my guest, you...... What are you doing here! ”

Yuan Datou's face also pulled down and yelled at Zhang Laohan.

The old man still didn't give face, and after pushing us out of the courtyard gate, he closed the door directly.

Yuan Datou's face was red and white, obviously feeling very shameless, he scolded in a low voice, and then quickly apologized to us: "I'm really embarrassed!" This old man usually has a good temper, and he doesn't know what medicine he took wrong, don't worry! What do you want to ask, I'll ask for it myself. ”

"It's okay! It's not your fault - yes, you know him so closely, right? ”

Yuan Datou was stunned for a moment, but still nodded: "It's okay!" He found me for a job in the Bohai Pharmaceutical Factory, and he originally worked in the Bohai Pharmaceutical Factory, but later ...... Later, because of his bad legs, Uncle Zhang was dismissed. ”

"Oh? He's also a salesman? I really can't see it! ”

"Not really—he's a security guard at the factory, and he's been there for years!"

Hao Minyuan nodded: "Why does Zhang Laohan raise so many small animals at home?" ”

"Good heart! Since Aunt Zhang's death, his son has also fallen ill......"

"Ahh He's not a bachelor! Xiao He, who had not spoken, exclaimed.

"I used to have a wife and children, alas! One Person, One Life...... It's a pity that my wife and children died of illness a few years ago. The unjust head sighed, "Blessing is unparalleled, and disaster is not a single line, and then he was fired from the factory, so he went back to the village to live alone, and then adopted a lot of small animals." ”

"What is wrong with his wife and children?"

"I don't know the specifics, it seems to be a very strange disease, and the whole body is ulcerated...... A layer of small white bumps grew on the skin, and when the pimple head broke, it turned into a foul-smelling pus. ”

And this strange disease! Why is this symptom so familiar......

That's right! Li Guozhi's wife and children seem to have died of illness like this, but as far as I know, Li Guozhi's wife and children were caused by radiation when they touched the fragrant "briquettes" in the Yellow River.

Don't...... Could it be that Zhang Laohan's wife and children have also been radiated by that kind of thing?

Thinking about it like this, it's a bit complicated, so I have to go back to Yuan Datou's house first, and it's a big deal to stay overnight tonight and see what Yuan Datou can do.

Yuan Datou's daughter-in-law has already served several dishes, and the dishes are full of fragrance, which makes me look at his daughter-in-law with admiration.

Several people started drinking since it was dark, and Xiao He wanted to go back to the office, but was persuaded by Hao Minyuan.

"You girl—give yourself a vacation! No wonder it's so big, I don't have a boyfriend yet, drinking and eating meat here is not better than you going back to a pile of broken corpses! ”

Xiao He smiled awkwardly and ate the rabbit chicken with peace of mind.

We drank together, and the character of being a soldier was bold, following the rhythm of their drinking, a bottle of liquor had been dried up in less than ten minutes, and it was obvious that Yuan Datou was too much to drink, and his tongue began to straighten when he spoke.

"Brother! If you come in two months, my daughter-in-law will be beautiful! Yuan Datou's mouth was very big.

"Brother Yuan, you ...... Are you going to take your sister-in-law to plastic surgery? ”

Yuan Datou laughed: "What a facelift!" Don't bother—in a few days, Huanghe Niangniang will help your sister-in-law restore her previous appearance. ”

"Yellow River Niangniang? What the Yellow River Niang! ”

Yuan Datou unscrewed another bottle of wine, and laughed twice: "The Yellow River Niangniang is the Yellow River Niangniang!" ”
