80s: The cold-faced tough guy was controlled by the beautiful woman

Chapter 31 Ogle

"I found it, I found it."

There was a commotion outside.

Li Yingtang and Aunt Liu went out to look around, and the villagers discovered Mai Di’s body and huddled together to join in the fun.

"Let's go and take a look too." Aunt Liu pulled Li Yingtang up.

"I'm scared and dare not look. Please take the yam." Li Yingtang picked up the bamboo basket and put it into Aunt Liu's hand.

Aunt Liu had no choice but to take it back.

As soon as the other party left.

Li Yingtang walked quickly into the infirmary. There were no patients in the infirmary today, so she spoke with less scruples: "Ah Xian, did you hear the noise outside? A body has been found."

Qin Xian turned a page of the book: "Didn't you say, don't care?"

"You're still associating with the captain of the criminal investigation team. Haven't you seen him investigate a case? Anyone who doesn't join in the fun is a suspect, just like a thief in the same dormitory who stole something. When everyone is talking about the thief, the other person is too guilty to speak up."

Qin Xian chuckled: "You think too much. I only know that the murderer will wait for everyone to find the body and appear at the scene with everyone. I have never heard of anyone who would not go to the scene."

"I don't care, you have to join in the fun with me." Li Yingtang pulled his hand.

Qin Xian's eyes swept over her hands. They were as white as jade, and under natural light, they were soft and beautiful. In comparison, his hands were not as good, and they were several shades darker. Being held by such a pair of soft hands, his heart felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.

.........

Almost all the villagers came and stood on the road in the cold wind to discuss the dead body in the wheat field.

"Is it Cheng Xiaoxiu?"

"I heard that her face was burned, so you can't see her face clearly, but you know it's a woman. Oh, how pitiful."

Cheng Xiaoxiu's mother rushed to identify the victim and found that the scar on the victim's arm was in the same location as her daughter's. She collapsed and wailed.

The village chief arranged for someone to report it.

Everyone gathered on the road and discussed.

Some say that if you are alone and walking on the street at night, you will be targeted by single men.

Some said that she was robbed because Cheng Xiaoxiu had a gold ring.

Li Yingtang expressed her opinion along with everyone else: "I guess it was most likely her man who did it."

"How is that possible? Her husband treats her very well. Whenever he has something delicious to eat or drink, he thinks of her first. Two months ago, Xiaoxiu was sick, and her husband took her to the health station on a flatbed cart overnight to find your husband. That day, I came to get an IV drip because of a stomachache. It was raining heavily and the road was slippery. Her husband fell and was covered in mud, but she was clean. So I left a deep impression on her."

Li Yingtang: "That was when there was no conflict of interest. Didn't Cheng Xiaoxiu have an argument with her father-in-law and was slapped by him? If it were me, I would have to slap him back. How could a son remain indifferent to such a back-and-forth?
He must be on his father's side.

The two men beat her to death.

In order to conceal their tracks, they burned her face and threw it in our village, then pretended to come looking for her, so that no one would suspect them. "

The women retorted: "Xiao Xiu is well-known for being honest. She doesn't even dare to speak loudly to her elders. How could she possibly do that?"

"Maybe her father-in-law has a violent tendency, and since she didn't resist, he beat her harder..." Li Yingtang didn't say a single cruel word before she saw the police coming. Out of natural awe for this profession, she subconsciously kept silent.

"Hello everyone, excuse me, I have a few questions for you."

Li Yingtang: "You ask."

"Have you heard any noises or seen any suspicious people in the past few days?"

"No."

"No." Everyone said in unison.

"What kind of person was the deceased usually? Did she offend anyone? Or did her parents have any feuds with anyone? What was her relationship with her husband's family like?"

Aunt Liu interrupted, "She's a nice person, hardworking and capable. She gets along well with everyone. Her parents are honest and I've never heard of them having any feuds with anyone. As for her in-laws, I heard that she was slapped by her father-in-law and ran away from home."

The policeman grasped the key point, put away his pen and paper and left.

Qin Xian also found an excuse to go back.

The rest of the group continued with the previous topic.

"I have met Eunuch Xiaoxiu. He does have a bad temper, but he is still a good person. He would not kill anyone, let alone his daughter-in-law." Wu Hong said.

Li Yingtang then refuted: "It's because she is your daughter-in-law that you want to kill her. It's like the son you raised with great effort, but all the good food and drinks are given to your daughter-in-law, leaving you out. You don't care about it once or twice, but if it happens for a year or two, do you hate it? If you don't believe me, let's make a bet."

Wu Hong smiled and said, "What are you betting on? I don't have any money. If I lose, the most I can do is help you with your work."

Li Yingtang: "Okay, if you lose you have to do the rough labor for me for two days. If you win, you can pick any of the rest except the men in the house." Everyone laughed.

He teased, "Let Doctor Qin hear this, watch your skin."

"He dares!"

Aunt Liu: "I'll make a bet, too."

Li Yingtang's smile faded: "Aunt Liu, please don't join in the fun. I can't afford to lose if there are too many people. If I win, there won't be so much work to do at home."

Aunt Liu: “.” That damn girl, are you targeting her on purpose!

...............

As it got darker, the snow started to fall again.

Everyone had no choice but to leave.

Li Yingtang returned to the health station and talked to Qin Xian about Cheng Xiaoxiu with great interest: "Logically speaking, that place is so close to us, if someone was burned there, someone in the village should have noticed it."

"Maybe it was burned somewhere else and thrown here. Now the scene has been destroyed. If the murderer is not caught, it will be difficult to verify the first scene." Qin Xian said.

Li Yingtang's expression changed: "What do you mean? Are you blaming me for stopping you from reporting it?"

Qin Xian raised his eyebrows: "I just said it out of inspiration, don't think too much about it."

"Humph!"

Qin Xian held his breath and said, "Tell me the truth, why are you angry?"

"Who's angry?"

"If you're not angry, why do you hum?"

"I have a cold and my nose is blocked. Can't I just hum to let the air out?"

Qin Xian: “.” Is that so?
The snow was so heavy that the accumulated snow collapsed the roofs of several villagers' houses.

The electricity that had just been supplied was cut off again. The health station was crowded with injured people in the middle of the night, and the empty rooms were used to accommodate the villagers.

Qin Xian carried the quilt back to his original room, which was now Li Yingtang's residence. "I'm afraid we'll have to rest here for the next few days. There are so many people and so many things to do. Put away your things at home and keep the door locked at all times."

"Got it." Li Yingtang made room with a happy look on his face: "It's already 1:30 in the morning, don't you want to rest?"

"There are still two people whose IV needles have not been removed. Once they are removed, we can rest."

"I'll wait for you, beauty~" Li Yingtang winked at him.

Qin Xian: “.”

Li Yingtang waited until he fell asleep, but still did not see Qin Xian.

But when I woke up the next day, the mattress next to me was warm, and there was a hot hot water bottle at my feet, which must have been placed there by him.

She got up and washed her face and brushed her teeth.

I found that the tea table in the corner was gone, and I shouted, "Who moved my table?"

"What kind of table?"

Li Yingtang: "It's as high as the calf, about this long, and there's a toad carved on it."

"Did Lao Jiu and the others use it as a stool?"

Li Yingtang pushed open the easternmost room following the noise. The room was filled with the stench of dry tobacco and stinky feet, and the smoke made her cough.

"Looking for Doctor Qin, he's not here."

Li Yingtang saw her table surrounded by several grown men. There were mahjong and dice on it. A rough old man was knocking her toad with his cigarette butt. She instantly became furious.

"You are too bullying!" She walked up to him with a cold face, snatched the man's pipe, broke it in half and threw it on the ground.

Not satisfied, he overturned the table again.

The Pai Gow tiles and dice were scattered all over the floor.

She didn't care and just picked up the table and left.

Everyone was stunned, looking at each other.

Who is bullying?
