Chapter 65: Who's Lying
Last night, Li Qiuyan was thrown into the river by the Chen family's dipping pig cage, and the yang fires on her shoulders and on her head had been extinguished, and it was Ning Nanxi who used her fingertips to rekindle the two yang fires.
Although Li Qiuyan's life is no longer in serious trouble, in the final analysis, she has not fully recovered, and it is reasonable that her body is weak and her face is pale at the moment.
"Mom, are you looking for me?" Li Qiuyan looked at Chen Shuheng's mother and asked in a low voice.
Last night, Chen Shuheng's mother almost fell to death Li Qiuyan's son, but Li Qiuyan was still very respectful to her at this time.
Maybe she knew that she didn't do it right, or maybe she had to bow her head under the eaves, after all, she had now extended the incense for the Chen family, and it was impossible for her to return to her in-laws' house.
"Chen Mo came to look for you, I want to ask you about Shuheng drowning, the children will hold me first, you can invite them into the house." As he spoke, Chen Shuheng's mother stretched out her hand and prepared to take the child over.
Li Qiuyan's face immediately showed a panicked look when she heard this, and she was just about to retreat, but in the blink of an eye, her face returned to a calm look, and then she handed the baby in her arms to Chen Shuheng's mother.
Seeing her like this, I can already be sure that Ning Nanxi's guess last night was correct, Li Qiuyan was indeed pretending.
She didn't forget about dipping in the pig cage at all, and she didn't forget the incident of Chen Shuheng's mother dropping the child in front of her.
Her initial reaction was a natural reaction, but only after she came back to her senses did she change her expression and hand the child to Chen Shuheng's mother.
She wanted to convince the Chen family that she didn't remember what happened last night, otherwise she would have nowhere to stay in the Chen family.
Chen Shuheng's mother glanced at Li Qiuyan after taking the child, and then turned around and walked in the direction of the main house, and after seeing her mother-in-law holding the child and leaving, Li Qiuyan raised her hand and made a gesture of please, and said, "Come in, I'll pour you a cup of tea." ”
After following Li Qiuyan into the room, Ning Nanxi and I each moved a chair and sat down, and at this time, there were photos of Li Qiuyan and Chen Shuheng when they got married on the wooden table in the room, and even the bedding and pillows were red, and there were mandarin ducks playing in the water embroidered on them.
Judging from the photos and mattress pillows on the desk, Li Qiuyan and Chen Shuheng have a very good relationship, if Li Qiuyan has two hearts, it is absolutely impossible to put these things on the surface, because she doesn't dare.
Imagine if you kill someone, do you still dare to keep his things with you, as the saying goes, as long as you see these old things, it will inevitably evoke memories.
Not to mention that Li Qiuyan is a woman, even a man cannot bear such torture.
But since Li Qiuyan and Chen Shuheng have such a good relationship, why did Li Qiuyan have an affair with outsiders, and why did she ask Zhao Laosan to build a chamfered iron hook to harm Chen Shuheng, this really makes me puzzled.
"Brother Chen drinks tea, and you drink tea this girl."
Li Qiuyan poured the tea and handed it to me and Ning Nanxi respectively, judging from her speech and demeanor, she did not look like a femme fatale, whether she spoke or did things very decently.
However, as the old saying goes, if you want to know whether her heart is red or black, you must ask clearly.
I took the teacup and took a sip, then looked at Li Qiuyan and asked, "Sister, I came today to ask you something besides seeing you and my aunt, this matter is related to the cause of Shuheng's death, so I hope you can take every question we ask seriously." ”
"The cause of Shuheng's death? Didn't he drown in the water, the whole village knew about it, why did you ask me again? Li Qiuyan looked at me and asked a little puzzled.
"Drowning is only the cause of death, but why was he drowned, you must know that the river in our village is not deep, and Shuheng has been very good in water since he was a child, we went to swim in the river as soon as he was a child, we didn't dare to say how proficient he was, but it was absolutely impossible to drown, so we suspect that the cause of Shuheng's death is strange!"
As I spoke, I put the teacup in my hand on the table, and stared at Li Qiuyan in front of me with my eyes.
"Sister Qiuyan, I'm a friend of Chen Mo, I want to ask you what happened that day, can you tell me the specific situation, what we heard from the villagers is some trivial details, I still hope you can tell us the specific experience." Ning Nanxi looked at Li Qiuyan softly and said.
Li Qiuyan clenched the teacup with both hands and bowed her head silently, as if she was recalling something in her heart.
After about half a minute, she slowly raised her head, and said in a trembling voice: "It's all my fault for this matter, a few days ago I didn't have good milk, the child was always hungry and crying, and the child was crying, and I was also anxious to get angry, but the more anxious I was on fire, the more there was no milk, and then my mother-in-law said that drinking crucian carp soup could produce milk, so I thought about letting Shuheng go to the river to catch some crucian carp and come back, boil some soup and drink milk." ”
"Shuheng listened to me and agreed, and then rowed a boat to the river to catch crucian carp for me, I was watching the children at home when the accident happened, and when I ran to the river, Shuheng had been carried to the shore by the villagers, and he was already out of gas at that time, this matter can regret my death, if I didn't fight for it, there was no milk Shuheng would not die."
As she spoke, Li Qiuyan trembled, and two lines of tears burst out of her eyes, falling down her cheeks and falling to the ground, making a snapping sound.
Ning Nanxi saw Li Qiuyan sobbing incessantly, so she took out two tissues from her pocket and handed them to her.
Li Qiuyan took the tissue and thanked her, wiped away the tears on her face and continued: "Although I feel uncomfortable, but things have come to this point and I can't help it, but fortunately, I gave birth to a son to Shu Heng, and I can continue the incense for their Chen family, I thought that it was difficult enough for the days to become like this, but I didn't expect that last night my parents-in-law suddenly broke into my house with several nephews of the Chen family, and after snatching the child, they gagged me, and then threw me into the pig cage. If it weren't for the two of you, I'm afraid my child and I would have died by now, you two are my benefactors, thank you! ”
After Li Qiuyan finished speaking, she put the teacup in her hand on the table, and then knelt down in front of me and Ning Nanxi with a thud.
Seeing Li Qiuyan kneeling, I hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and said in a panic: "Sister, hurry up, what are you doing, Shu Heng was a friend with me before his death, shouldn't I do this, you should get up quickly." ”
Under my persuasion, Li Qiuyan's mood eased a little, and after two or three minutes, Ning Nanxi saw that her mood had calmed down, so she asked: "Sister Qiuyan, according to what you just said, you remember what happened last night, in that case, why did you say that you didn't remember after you woke up yesterday?" ”
Li Qiuyan sighed and smiled helplessly: "If I say that I still remember, can this Chen family tolerate me, they are the ones who want my life, if they know that I remember this matter, they will definitely be more strict with me, and my life with my children will be even more difficult, so I will say that I don't remember what happened last night, in fact, I remember it clearly, including my mother-in-law who threw the child and threw me into the river, the reason why I am like this is to let myself live, although I don't know why they said this about me, But the child is innocent after all, Shuheng is dead now, I have to pull this child to adulthood, even if it is difficult and difficult, I can't give up. ”
The more Li Qiuyan spoke, the more excited she became, and tears couldn't stop flowing out of her eyes.
I don't feel good when I see her like this, and I obviously feel that she is showing her true feelings, not making a show for us.
If the scene in front of her is really acted, then her acting skills are enough to beat all today's actors and stars.
After listening to Li Qiuyan's words, I turned my head to look at Ning Nanxi, and at this time, Ning Nanxi's eyes were red, and I seemed to be moved by Li Qiuyan's story.
It is said that women are emotional animals, if Li Qiuyan really acted in such a play to win sympathy, once Ning Nanxi is deeply involved, it will not be easy for me to ask clearly.
Thinking of this, I went straight to the point, took out the chamfered iron hook from my pocket, put it in front of Li Qiuyan, and asked in a deep voice: "Sister, do you recognize this thing?" ”
Li Qiuyan raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then looked down in the direction of my palm, when he saw the chamfered iron hook in my palm, his face showed a puzzled look, and then asked puzzled: "What is this, I have never seen it." ”
I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, according to Zhao Laosan, it was Li Qiuyan who asked him to forge this chamfered iron hook, but now it has only been half a month, how can Li Qiuyan forget it completely.
"Sister, have you ever been to the blacksmith shop during this time, that is, Zhao Laosan." I was reluctant to continue to ask.
Li Qiuyan shook her head when she heard this, saying that she had never been to the blacksmith shop, and she had hardly spoken anything to Zhao Laosan.
Since she married into the Chen family, she has been pregnant, so her father-in-law and mother-in-law have always worked in the field, and after giving birth to the child, she has been dedicated to watching the child at home, as for these farm tools, his father-in-law came forward to buy, so she has never been to the blacksmith shop at all.
Seeing what Li Qiuyan said, I didn't know who to believe for a while, Zhao Laosan said that this chamfered iron hook was forged by Li Qiuyan, but Li Qiuyan said that she had never been to the blacksmith shop, could it be that some of them lied?
After some contemplation, I still think that Li Qiuyan is more likely to lie, after all, Zhao Laosan is just a blacksmith, he only works iron and forges farm tools on weekdays, and he is not involved in other family affairs at all, and it is not good for him to lie at all, he belongs to a small family in the village, once he is found to be lying, then his status in the village may be fluctuated, so Zhao Laosan will not lie.
The matter reached an impasse for a while, and we have no evidence of whether Li Qiuyan has been to the blacksmith shop, after all, the village is no better than the city, and there are surveillance cameras everywhere, and with the empty mouth and white teeth of the two of them, I can't determine who said it is true and who says it is false.
This is a bit tricky, if this chamfered iron hook is really forged by Li Qiuyan and Zhao Laosan, then there must be an inexplicable relationship between her and the monkey.
That night, the monkey said that he had harmed Chen Shuheng, and since this iron hook was most likely the murder weapon that hooked the fishing boat, then this iron hook must have been handed over to the monkey by Li Qiuyan.
Thinking of this, a bold thought suddenly flashed in my mind, last night the Chen family said that Li Qiuyan had an affair with a wild man, could it be that the wild man in their mouth is a monkey!
