Chapter 41: Little Girl
"Isn't Li Yinliu's child less than four years old? What can you ask? Tang Guo asked.
Qin Cang nodded: "Yes, it's because she is only less than four years old, so she is the best object to ask, what such a young child has to say, even if it is true and false, it is mostly because of his own imagination, not out of some selfishness to make things up, but what he says is more objective and credible." ”
Tang Guo thought about it and felt that it seemed to make sense, but she still had a question: "You're right, but for such a young child, you don't necessarily know everything between your parents and at home, right?" ”
"You underestimate the observation ability of children, not to mention that I don't want to inquire about how private their family is." Qin Cang was not worried about the problem mentioned by Tang Guo, and seemed confident and sure of victory.
Tang Guo saw that he was so confident, so he simply didn't say anything, and silently drove towards the community where Kong Xiaotong and Li Yinliu's house were located, and when he got there, he inquired a little and found out which neighbor was the neighbor who helped Li Yinliu and Wei Hongwen take the children, after all, Li Yinliu had an accident in his own home, and it also caused a certain sensation in the community, and there were many people who knew about it, and there were many people who could provide clues.
Helping Li Yinliu and Wei Hongwen take care of the children is an old lady, surnamed Ding, who is over seventy years old this year, but her body is quite tough, when Tang Guo and Qin Cang knocked on her door, she was choosing vegetables in the living room, and when she heard that the police came to the door, she was not too surprised, but just made a silent gesture to them.
"Shhh Aunt Ding lowered her voice and explained to them, "The child is watching cartoons in the house, I'll go close the door of the house, let's whisper in the living room, she can't hear it!" ”
After speaking, she turned around and walked over to close the bedroom door with small steps, and as soon as Tang Guo wanted to stop her, she was stopped by Qin Cang on the side.
"It's okay, talk to her first, and then ask the child." He whispered to Tang Guo.
Tang Guo thought about it, it would be good to listen to what this old lady who always helped Li Yinliu and his family take care of the children had to say, at least he could listen to it, whether Li Yinliu was so unbearable as described by those neighbors.
Aunt Ding tiptoed to close the door of the room, came back, sat back at the table, stretched out her hand to beckon them to sit down next to her, and then sighed, and asked while pinching the dishes: "How did Li Yinliu die?" ”
"We don't know much about this now, the case is still under investigation, this time I came here to learn about the situation with you, you usually help their family take care of the children, you must know a lot about their family, right?" Tang Guo also paid attention to and asked Aunt Ding in a low voice, "What kind of person is Li Yinliu?" I heard that the temper is not very good? ”
"Well, yes, the temper is indeed quite bad," Aunt Ding nodded immediately, "But she has a good heart, a typical knife mouth tofu heart, that is, the tofu heart is too deep, and the mouth is too powerful, giving people a feeling of fierceness, not easy to get along with, really in contact, in fact, she is still a good person." Sometimes come to me to pick up the children, see what I have here crooked and broken, will say me, say that I am old and confused, can't live or something, anyway, the words are not good, but the hands are not idle, when I go, I must have helped me to get Lili Suo, after a long time I have been used to it, she likes to say what she likes, I know she has no bad intentions. But then again, I think it's okay, I can understand her, and that's because I don't live with her! If I were to be with her every day, I wouldn't be able to stand it, she's so strong! ”
"What do you mean by being so strong?" Tang Guo asked again.
"It's to others, to their own men, they are very domineering, a bit of a word, although I know that she is kind, but occasionally meddling, this is not the same thing as being managed by her 24 hours a day," Aunt Ding said helplessly, "I sometimes ah, and I am very anxious for their small family, you say that this Li Yinliu, the mind is really good, but it is too fierce, scolding his man, it is really not giving face at all, no matter what the occasion, no matter whether there is anyone present, Open your mouth and scold, it's not bad, sometimes I stretch out my hand and hit, I've persuaded it several times, alas! ”
"Li Yinliu's husband can't fight back like that, can't he scold back?" Qin Cang asked.
Aunt Ding nodded: "That's not it!" If you want to talk about her man, what an honest head! If you can't fight back, you can't scold back, it's really like this! Li Yinliu always thinks that her husband has a lump of wood, can't speak, his brain is not clever enough, no one else can make money, I sometimes persuade her, I say that in this life, there is no time to make enough money, so you have to learn to be content, some men can make money outside, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling and smoking all day long! That kind of man is a good man? That's impossible! Although the man in her family said that he didn't make much money, he was willing to endure hardships, in order to make more money, sometimes he finished his class, and he went to work for others to earn more money, but his work was hard work and tiring work, not something that could be done comfortably in the office! How many people don't want to be tired like that! She has to be considerate and considerate, and she is kind to others, Li Yinliu doesn't listen to me at all, and she doesn't like to listen to me say this, I won't say anything after a long time, and people don't like to listen to it if I talk too much. After all, I just help others take care of their children and make a little money, and I can't really treat myself as a parent. ”
"Then Li Yinliu is so fierce, can her husband stand it!" Tang Guo said with deliberate emotion.
Aunt Ding nodded seriously: "I can stand it!" Her man has never seen her in general, this is really not easy, let alone general knowledge, not even opinions, no matter how ugly Li Yinliu's scolding is, sometimes the slap is hit in the face, he laughs, he doesn't hide, and he doesn't get angry. I sometimes secretly give him advice, I say child, we can't be too honest, we can't fight back when beaten, but we have to know how to hide, stupid standing there and being pumped, that's not a thing! ”
"Then what did Wei Hongwen say?"
"He said it's okay, he is a woman, and he can't drop a piece of meat after a few hits, so he won't be afraid."
"Speaking of which, this Wei Hongwen is a genuine honest man and a soft persimmon." Qin Cang sighed with a smile, and then suddenly changed his words, "Who is their daughter more like?" ”
"Like Daddy." Aunt Ding replied without hesitation, and after finishing speaking, she found that Tang Guo was a little surprised, and quickly explained, "This child has been put to me since he was less than a year old, and now he is almost four years old, and he can be regarded as a child I have watched grow up, similar to my own little grandson and granddaughter." The child is very similar to her father's personality, easy to talk, but not like to talk, and usually does not get angry when scolded by her mother. ”
"As far as you know, has Li Yinliu had any conflicts with anyone outside, or has anyone ever troubled her in the community?" Qin Cang asked.
Aunt Ding thought about it and shook her head: "I don't know this." ”
"Can we go talk to the kids?" Tang Guo hadn't forgotten their original purpose of coming here.
"It's okay, but don't talk about it!" Aunt Ding was not very relieved.
Qin Cang nodded at her: "We know it in our hearts, you don't have to worry." ”
Although Aunt Ding was still a little uneasy, she also knew the importance of the police understanding the situation, so she didn't stop much, got up and walked to the door of the bedroom first, pushed open the door and looked inside, a little girl in the bedroom was sitting on the edge of the bed, with a little baby fat on her face, pink and tender looked cute, watching the cartoon intently in front of the TV, and she didn't know that there were three people standing at the door looking at herself.
"This child's nickname is Duoduo, she is not afraid of life, you can say whatever you want to say to her, I will accompany me in front of me, if I think I am in the way in front of me, I will avoid it." Aunt Ding whispered to them.
Qin Cang looked at the dishes that had picked up half of the dishes next to the table, and said to Aunt Ding: "You are busy first, if we can't figure it out, we will call you over to help." ”
When Aunt Ding heard him say this, she also understood what he meant, turned around and walked away, and continued to sit in the living room to choose vegetables, while Qin Cang and Tang Guo slowly walked into the room, the little girl heard the voice, turned her head and looked at them, and saw Qin Cang's eyes fall on the TV, so she didn't react much, and consciously moved her body inside, and gave up some of the positions next to the bed for Qin Cang and Tang Guo, so that they could sit down.
Qin Cang and Tang Guo sat down, Tang Guo thought that Qin Cang would want to say something to the child, but he didn't expect him to sit next to the little girl without saying a word, and began to watch cartoons with the child.
There are cartoons on TV, Tang Guo used to only hear of his name and didn't know the details, after all, there are no children of this age watching cartoons in her home, Qin Cang is older than Tang Guo, and it is estimated that it is about the same, but this time he is abnormal, not only did he go straight to the topic, but he also talked to the little girl without a match, and he was very patient, and asked which one is the good guy and which one is the bad guy in the cartoon from time to time. The little girl also took the trouble to explain to him again and again the relationship between the characters in it, and the big and the small actually started a dialogue like this.
Tang Guo looked at Qin Cang from the side, and saw the soft lines on his face when he chatted with the little girl, and suddenly felt in a trance, as if Qin Cang had become another person, a person with no barbs on his body, and full of tenderness, a person with a "human flavor".
