Chapter 37 Wendui Village

I didn't hide it, so I told them about it.

The little Zhuo policeman looked happy, and said hurriedly, "Sure enough, the problem lies with Wang Yangming's house."

I gave up and explained: "It's too early to make a conclusion, I have to go and see for myself."

As soon as the words fell, the happiest thing was Zi Yangtao's parents, who expressed their gratitude to me, and handed over the previous red envelope, saying why should I bother about this matter.

I didn't dare to collect money, because I just suspected that the time was wrong, and I was not sure about the whole thing. Besides, even if the time was wrong, it would definitely not cause the death of the family members.

Right now, I said this.

After hearing this, their originally excited expressions froze at this moment. After discussing with each other, they said that they wanted to go to Wang Yangming's house to check on the situation, but Teacher Yaoguang said that she still had some homework to correct and had to go back to school to get busy.

I didn't say anything, so I sent Teacher Yaoguang away. Before leaving, Teacher Yaoguang said to me: "Luo Dongchuan, even though Zi Yangtao is different in every way, don't forget, he is your classmate. So, I hope that I will do my best in this matter, and if you need to ask for leave, you can just ask someone to tell you a word."

I hummed and thanked her.

After Teacher Yaoguang left, police officer Xiaozhuo led the way, leading me, Zi Yangtao's parents, and me to the village where Wang Yangming lived.

The little Zhuo policeman must have changed his uniform before setting off to avoid suspicion, and wearing some ordinary clothes, the group rushed towards the village in a hurry.

On the way, I learned the names of Zi Yangtao’s parents. His father’s name is Zi Dayuan, and his mother’s name is Zhang Hehua. They have been working hard in Guangzhou, leaving Zi Yangtao at home. This time they came back in such a timely manner because they were preparing to come back When doing business, when he heard that something happened to Zi Yangtao, he immediately stopped what he was doing and started running around for Zi Yangtao.

I wasn't very interested in Zi Yangtao's parents, so I asked the Xiaozhuo policeman about Wang Yangming. The Xiaozhuo policeman told me that the village where Wang Yangming lived was called Wendui Village. Nanping Town can be ranked among the top three. Most of the villagers have gone south to Guangzhou to work, and there are only a few old people and children left in the village.

But Wang Yangming's situation is a bit special, he is a child of a single family, his father is quite rich, his name is Wang Runxue, he opened three factories in Guangzhou, and he doesn't know what's going on. of.

The reason why I built a new house at home this time is to renovate the ancestral house.To put it bluntly, on our side, once we have spare money, we will go home and renovate the ancestral house.

In ancient times, new houses were built for people to live in, but in today's society, new houses are built entirely for the sake of face. I don't know whether to say that this society has improved, or that this society has become more particular. up.

When we arrived at Wendui Village, it was around 10:[-] in the morning. The whole village was filled with smog, and there was a deafening wail resounding above the village. The few of us looked at each other, and the Xiaozhuo policeman said, "Looking at the situation, we should He is taking care of the funeral for Wang Yangming."

I grunted. In our case, when a child reaches the age of 16, he can do the funeral for one day. That is, the funeral begins in the morning and he has to be carried out for burial in the afternoon. dislike."

The Xiaozhuo police officer immediately understood what I meant, and said to the Zi Dayuan, "Go back and buy some wreaths."

Without saying a word, Zi Dayuan immediately went to the town, while we waited at the entrance of the village.

After waiting for about [-] minutes, Zi Dayuan rented a three-wheeled motorcycle from the town and came back. There were more than a dozen flower wreaths in the car, and several barrels of fireworks and yellow paper were arranged. The cargo box behind the motorcycle was suddenly full.

How could I not understand what he meant, as the saying goes, don’t hit smiling people, if he pulls his car into the village, even if Wang Runxue wants to get angry, he has to do it for the sake of these things, at least he has to suppress it a little bit. point.

In this way, each of us carried some things and walked into the village.

As soon as I entered the village, I found an arched flower bridge made of cypress branches on both sides of the main house. On the top was a lotus flower made of white paper hanging on the flower bridge. Right above it was the word "Dian" in black on a white background. , there is a pair of elegiac couplets hanging on the left and right sides, "The rumors are all over the world and Kyushu, and they are nothing more than scolding. It is unknown that Zhaoxue will live forever." '.

When I saw this elegiac couplet, I frowned, and the Xiaozhuo policeman asked me what was wrong, and I said, "This elegiac couplet was written for Tan Sitong by his father, Tan Jixun, after Tan Sitong's death, which means grievance."

After saying this, I didn't move on. From this elegiac couplet, I can see that Wang Runxue should take special care of his son. Once we pass by, there will be a beating in all likelihood. There is nothing we can do about it, his son They are all dead, it would be strange if they didn't beat us up.

After I said this, I proposed that I stay at the entrance of the village and wait until they got rid of Wang Runxue before I entered the village.

Saying that, I didn't give them a chance to refuse, put down my things, and walked towards the entrance of the village.

Don't say I'm ruthless, I'm only responsible for checking on the beam for them, and I'm not here to get beaten.

What I didn't expect was that the Xiaozhuo policeman actually walked in with Zi Dayuan and his wife, saying yes, he is a people's policeman, and he should help the masses solve problems. Responsibility.

Well, I'm just a ghost craftsman in the lower class of society, not as noble as he is.

Back at the entrance of the village, I found a fairly clean place to sit down, took out my cigarette, and started smoking.Needless to say, cigarettes are really a good thing, but unfortunately, when I wanted to quit smoking due to physical problems, I found that I had become one with cigarettes, and it was undoubtedly difficult to quit.

I don't know how long it took, until the sun began to set in the west, and the hungry chest pressed against the back, the little Zhuo policeman came over. At first glance, there were a few red fingerprints on his handsome face. I asked him what was wrong, and he shook his head and said, "Hey, Wang Yangming's father was too emotional, he didn't pay attention, and he incited me."

I asked him again, "Where is Zi Dayuan and his wife?"

He said, just go and see for yourself.

While speaking, he took my arm and walked towards the village.

After entering the village, the Xiaozhuo police officer first asked me to go to the main room, saying that I would pay homage to Wang Yangming, but I didn't refuse. I burned some yellow paper in the main room, bowed a few more times, and then walked out.

When I was about to go out, I didn’t know if it was an illusion or what was going on. I felt like someone was staring at me in the main room. I turned my head and saw that there was nothing in the main room except a dark coffin. Uneasy, but without thinking too much, he followed Police Xiao Zhuo to Wang Yangming's house.
