Mysterious country

Chapter 45 Strange



Entering Calabash Village in the evening, it was shrouded in a heavy haze.

The population of Hulucun Village is very limited. There are only about a hundred households in the whole village. These people are all natives of Hulucun Village. They have not come in from outside, and they have also not left because they think the outside world is good.

Although Mr. Chen is usually very arrogant, Hulu Village is very stable under his management. Because the village is surrounded by mountains, water and farmland, it is not difficult for people to achieve self-sufficiency.

Although the living conditions are very backward compared with the outside world, there are no such situations as hunger or homelessness.

However, it is said that this place was not originally called Hulu Village because there is a Calabash River here. In addition, the name "Calabash" is easy to remember, so over time it became the current Hulu Village.

"Quickly tell me, how did Mr. Chen's daughter-in-law die?"

In the farmland to the west of the village, six or seven middle-aged people in their thirties were sitting around chatting, including Zhao Kuaizui, who ran to report to Boss Chen in the morning.

"How did you die?"

Zhao Kuaizui's expression suddenly became exaggerated, and his hands, with nails soaked in mud, kept gesticulating repeatedly in the sight of several people:

"I'll scare you to death if I tell you! It's so scary. The corpse is standing straight in the middle of the river. The whole face is deformed. The expression is like...like...like..."

"It's like what? Can you please stop gasping!"

"Like a ghost!"

Zhao Kuaizui suddenly raised his voice, which frightened several people and cursed them one after another:

"Can you fucking stop being so startled? I'm so scared to death!"

"Haha, I'm just telling you that you cowards will be scared if you don't believe me!"

After Zhao Kuaishou finished speaking, he leisurely bit a cigarette in his mouth, then lit it and started smoking.

As for the middle-aged people beside them who were listening to the story, they also started to make comments at this time:

"Do you think Boss Chen killed that woman? Why don't I believe that such a beautiful woman committed suicide just because she said she would?"

"You know nothing, do you think that girl will be happy in Mr. Chen's house? Are you willing to find a bad wife who will only have sex every day?"

"Get out of here, don't get involved with me again. Even if she is not happy in Mr. Chen's house, the worst she can do is not get along with his son. Why commit suicide?"

"How come you can't do it? I heard that Boss Chen spent a lot of money to get her here. If it were you, you can't do it, but you can't do it?"

The villager who spoke at this time stretched out two fingers and continued:

"Besides, as for Boss Chen's silly son, who among the girls in the village can compete with him? I don't think it's easy to say this."

"But what a pity that girl is, she's really good looking and has a big ass..."

Zhao Kuai was smoking a cigarette while looking at the people around him with a sarcastic expression. At this time, he heard him laugh dryly with disapproval:

"Haha, I'm not talking about you."

"What's wrong with us?"

"I don't know how to pretend to understand, but I'm talking nonsense there."

"As long as you understand, then tell me what's going on!"

When Zhao Kuaizui said this, several villagers were immediately reluctant. Of course, they also wanted to hear what Zhao Kuaizui had to say. After all, in Hulu Village, Zhao Kuaizui was famous for his quick mouth, and there was only so much gossip. He has the most, and nine out of ten of them are true.

Then Zhao Kuaisui stood up slowly, stretched his waist and said:

“Boss Chen’s son not only has brain problems, but also has a very bad temper. He dares not beat his mother except for Boss Chen at home, let alone his wife.

After that girl got married, not only did she have to serve that stupid son, she was also beaten every day, and she couldn't get any good treatment from her mother-in-law. "

"Is that little girl stupid? Just run away, how can you live so well!"

"Run? How to run? The village is full of Boss Chen's people. You don't want to chase after Boss Chen gives an order?

Don’t want any more land to farm? Don't want to catch fish? "

What Zhao Kuai said made the villager clenched his fists, but it was indeed the case. All the land in Hulu Village was in the hands of Boss Chen, and all the fishing boats were rented out by him, so no one dared to mess with him.

Of course, Boss Chen is not the kind of person who is completely unreasonable, otherwise he would not have bought a wife from outside instead of forcibly marrying her directly in the village.

"I don't think any of us should talk about this matter. Boss Chen has been very angry recently. If he hears about it and pursues it, we won't even think about it.

Okay, I'm going back after finishing my work. It might start raining again soon. "

After Zhao Kuaisui finished speaking, he took the sickle and walked away quickly, leaving a few villagers standing there looking at each other.

"This is not like Zhao Kuaizui's style at all. He even took the initiative to shut up. In the past, he had the fastest mouth."

"Yeah, I guess this kid knows something else. He's scared..."

On the way home, Zhao Kuai felt an indescribable feeling of discomfort in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen. Not only was his chest tight, but all he could think about was the tragic image of the female corpse.

"Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Even if you really turn into a ghost, don't look for me. It's all the fault of Boss Chen and his family..."

Zhao Kuaizui muttered as he speeded up his pace and walked home. On the way, he even fell down several times because of fear.

At the same time, Boss Chen’s home.

Earlier, Mr. Chen had already bought a coffin for his dead daughter-in-law from Hu Daniu, who was in charge of public affairs in the village, and also hung a white ribbon at home.

There are rules for this kind of thing in Hulu Village. The deceased is the oldest, and the family must keep vigil for seven days, and paper money must be burned at midnight every day.

But in Mr. Chen's case, his family did not do this.

"You still want to keep vigil for that bitch? Why am I so bitchy!"

Regardless of Boss Chen's objections, Boss Chen's wife removed the white silk hanging on the door.

"Anyway, Xiaoli is also the daughter-in-law of our old Chen family. If we don't follow the rules, what will the people in the village think of us? Doesn't that mean that the rumors outside are true!"

"I don't care! You're just a bitch. Why do you care so much? Does it have something to do with you? Usually my father-in-law yells at me!"

"What are you doing with me?"

Boss Chen was very angry with his wife, but it was normal for his wife to be so angry. After all, Xiaoli was indeed not a fuel-efficient lamp, but the strange situation that happened today made him feel a little uneasy.

"Okay, it's all over. It's over once and for all if it dies. Even if we don't give it a wake, we still have to keep it for another seven days according to the rules..."
