Chapter 43: The Mother Who Delayed Leaving (4)
"Hey! Celery seedlings, why can you see everything? How can we not see? Fat Wei suddenly showed ten thousand dissatisfaction with Qin Yueyang's omniscient appearance.
"Who do you call celery seedlings? I can see so much, you eat dry rice after I am a witch? Qin Yueyang glared at Fat Wei and ignored him.
Everyone returned home like this, although it was already the middle of the night, Chen Zhi's father saw that they came back safely, and then fell asleep with peace of mind.
The next morning, Lu Jianguo called, saying that he had an urgent matter to go to the hospital, and he couldn't come for the time being, so he asked them to go to the house to look at the table, and the door key and drawer key were placed in Mrs. Wu's house downstairs, and told them to move faster, his wife may not come back when during the day, this matter is hidden from his wife.
"It's really a strict wife, a man can't do anything, and he must not marry a Northeast girl." Fat scolded majestically, planning to ask Lu Jianguo for more money.
At noon, Chen Zhi and Fat Wei took Qin Yueyang to Lu Jianguo's house, they first went downstairs to Mrs. Wu's house to get the key, and then opened the door smoothly, and there was no one in the house.
They used the key left by Lu Jianguo to open the wooden drawer.
When I opened it, there was a bunch of miscellaneous things in it, which had been a long time, and it was basically some old people's miscellaneous items. Chen Zhi flipped through it and saw a brown and yellow photo album inside, so he took it out. The album has been around for a long time, and the pages are a little dirty. Chen Zhi flipped through the pages one by one, and there were some yellowed old photos inside. Among them are a group photo of Lu Jianguo's parents, as well as a single photo of Lu Jianguo's father. His father estimated that he was born in a wealthy family when he was a child, and took a lot of art photos from his childhood, as well as photos of his military uniform when he was young, and the plastic film on it was very bright, and it could be seen that Lu Jianguo's mother was often wiping.
Chen Zhi read the album from beginning to end, and rummaged through the drawer for a long time, but he didn't see anything wrong.
"I mean, you can't do it with Sherlock Holmes? Didn't you brag to me about B last time you drank, saying that you had an IQ of 186? Why can't I find any clues? You move quickly, when Lu Jianguo's crazy wife comes back, I'm afraid. Fat Wei said with palpitations, and kept looking at the door frequently.
I don't know if it's out of sympathy or curiosity, Chen Zhi just feels that this family is very strange. First of all, there is a very discordant place here, that is, Lu Jianguo's wife is too beautiful, how could a woman of her kind fall in love with such a poor coal worker who has nothing?
Besides, although his wife is spicy, she behaves like a person who has read a book. And there is one thing that is very wrong, that is, his wife's accent, although she is full of Northeast dialect, she speaks very awkwardly, as if she has been specially trained.
If Chen Zhi's inference is correct, Lu Jianguo's wife should be a foreigner, and she is far away from the north, and more importantly, his wife doesn't want others to know that she is a foreigner.
"I've really rummaged through, there's nothing, this old lady has saved a lot of rags except for this photo album." Fat Wei went over to help, and said as he turned over.
Qin Yueyang saw that they couldn't turn things over, walked over by himself, touched the table, closed his eyes for a while as if he was perceiving something, opened his eyes and said, "No, there must be something in here."
Listening to Qin Yueyang's words, Chen Zhi's eyes shifted from the drawer to the table. At that time, they saw Mrs. Lu's "reflection", desperately pulling this drawer, perhaps the purpose was not the contents of the drawer, but the table itself.
"Tear down the table," Chen Zhi said.
"You're not sick! We broke into the house illegally, demolished people's tables, and waited for the crazy woman to come back and didn't call the police! Fat Wei said.
"It's okay, let's dismantle it! Disassemble every mortise and tenon joint on the table," Chen Zhi said resolutely.
Fat Wei had to go to the balcony to find a few guys, and Chen Zhi and the two of them, and dismantled the table in a few clicks, the table was too old, and there were sawdust everywhere when it was opened.
After the table was opened, Chen Zhi touched the card slot in each wood mortise and tenon, and in the card slot behind the drawer, he touched a stone as big as a broad bean, he pulled out the stone and put it in the palm of his hand to look at it, he saw that the stone was black and not slippery, like glass but very hard, and there was some dark purple inside, which was quite ordinary, just like picking up casually on the road.
"What the hell is this? Where did you pick out a broken stone? Fat Wei looked at it and asked.
Qin Yueyang walked over and took a look, but his face changed greatly, and he said, "It's amazing, this is a life-changing stone"
"Lifestone? What is the life-changing stone? Fat Wei asked with a look in his eyes.
Qin Yueyang blushed and said to Chen Zhi, quickly take the paper and wrap the stone, let's go, we can't stay here for a long time.
After listening to Qin Yueyang's words, everyone wrapped the stone in paper in a panic, threw the broken table on the balcony, locked the door and left Lu Jianguo's house.
Before leaving, Chen Zhi went to return the key to Mrs. Wu downstairs, but when Mrs. Wu saw them come out, she immediately grabbed Chen Zhi's arm and didn't let him go, and made a gesture to beckon Qin Yueyang and Fat Wei to come into the house together, saying that she wanted to tell them a big secret.
Mrs. Wu is a left-behind old lady in her 70s, her son is working in other places, and she lives alone downstairs in Lu Jianguo. When Lu Jianguo's mother, Mrs. Lu, was alive, she was very good with Mrs. Wu, and the two often went shopping together, and Mr. Lu also told Mrs. Wu what he had in mind. So when Mrs. Lu died, Mrs. Wu was very sad and cried for several days.
"Auntie, you usually look at it coldly, is Lu Jianguo filial to her mother?" Chen Zhi asked.
"Filial piety, there is no more filial child than him! He is kind and kind," Mrs. Wu said approvingly. "It's a pity that this child has a bad life, he has no father since he was a child, his family is poor, he has never gone to school, and he finally married a daughter-in-law, but he got a strange illness and coughed up blood every day. His old mother is in a hurry! Mrs. Wu sighed and said.
"You said that Lu Jianguo got a strange illness after marrying his daughter-in-law?" Chen Zhi asked.
"But no, his daughter-in-law is simply a mourning star, what's the use of being good-looking? She speaks coldly to her mother-in-law every day, and she doesn't speak when she sees us elders, and no one in our building likes her," Mrs. Wu rolled her eyes and said very dissatisfied.
"You said that Lu Jianguo's daughter-in-law is not good to her mother-in-law? Then do you know how Lu Jianguo's mother, Mrs. Lu, died? We heard that it was a staircase and hit the head," Chen Zhi then asked.
"Cut, what a roll stairs, it's not. I just want to tell you about this" Mrs. Wu made sure that the door was closed, turned around and glared at Chen Zhi and said, "There are goblins in their house, and Mrs. Wu was killed by goblins. ”
