Chapter 74 The Strange Richest Man

Chapter 74 The Strange Richest Man
Ye Hua smiled, and replied: "Brother Cui, actually you misunderstood, we have nothing to do with that scholar, and we are not here to collect the bill."

"That's right, we're not here to collect the bill!" Qingying walked to Ye Hua's side and said with a smile.

"That's right, we're just passing by." Nannan muttered while eating candied haws.

Yaya glanced at Ye Hua, then asked Cui Meng: "Stupid, since you are so afraid of your mother, why did you destroy the warehouse of that upstart?"

Pu Songling glanced at Cui Meng, then at Ye Hua, but said nothing.

"I have to talk about it carefully, so that you don't think I'm as unreasonable as that kid Caichen said!"

Cui Meng put away the big knife, then turned his head to look at the closed back room, and said in a low voice:

"Let's talk about it in a different place, lest my mother hear it and worry about me again."

Ye Hua nodded, and replied: "Okay, then you can lead the way, we are new to your place, and we are not very familiar with this place."

"Let's go then!"

Cui Meng said something, then turned around and led the way.

Ye Hua followed along and saw mountains, rivers, and large fields filled with grain. The harvest season was about to arrive.

But as they walked, unexpectedly, Cui Meng brought Ye Hua and his party to a tombstone.

There is only one tombstone, and there are no other tombstones around.

Except for a few old men fishing in the distance by the river, no one else could be seen.

Qingying, Nannan and Yaya looked at each other without speaking.

Cui Meng pulled the weeds in front of the tombstone, sighed, and said:
"Although our Guobei County is only a county, it is also a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and a large grain producer. There are more people coming and going to do business, and it has also created many rich people in the city.

"That Jin Gui, who claims to be the richest man in our Guobei County, is actually just a small-time gangster who became a nouveau riche overnight. He was originally very poor and often relied on others' help to survive. However, in the past few years, he I don’t know what kind of bad luck I had, but I suddenly married a wife, bought a large piece of land, built the largest house in the county, and even stored the food in several large warehouses.”

"Along the way, this place is really good." Ye Hua looked at the surrounding scenery, the air was fresh, and the farmland in the distance was like a painting, but it was a pity that there was a sudden tombstone here, which seemed a bit shocking, but However, he also knew that Cui Meng had something to say later, so he agreed with him, "However, Jingui suddenly became rich? This is quite evil."

Cui Meng sighed again and said:
"Hey, a few years ago, because of my affairs, the family's money was getting less and less, so I, my good brother Xiaoda and several other brothers saw that Jin Gui had become rich, so we decided to work as long-term workers in his house. .

"I thought that Jingui had been poor before, and he would be kinder to everyone in the village. Who knew that he was even more stingy and greedy than all the rich people in the county! I won't talk about deducting wages. Usually, when someone's family suffers a disaster, just look at his warehouse After buying Xiao Shangao's food, he wanted to ask him to contribute part of the ration for emergency, but Jingui was like a dog guarding the food, refusing to pay a grain of rice, let alone borrow it!

"My brothers and I can't get used to Jingui's stingy behavior. We wanted to quit, but my good brother Xiao Da has a little problem..."

Seeing that Cui Meng faltered at the end, Qingying asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Qingying, Nannan, and Yaya looking at him curiously, Cui Meng felt a little uncomfortable, so he said to Ye Hua in embarrassment: "Hey, Xiaoda... likes Beautiful girl. In the past, I would have given him a few maids, but after the fall of my family these years, the maids have also been dismissed."

After a pause, Cui Meng said again:
"It just so happens that Jin Gui married a beautiful daughter-in-law who looks fresh and fresh, and Xiao Da sneaks peeks every day... Even if Jin Gui deducts his wages, Xiao Da is reluctant to take his eyes away. Who would have imagined, this staring and aiming, as expected Something went wrong..."

"Acridine? What happened?" Yaya asked in surprise.

While biting the candied haws, the girl said with disdain and contempt: "Hey, have you never learned to see no evil?"

"Could it be that he did something unforgivable?" Qing Ying's eyes lit up immediately, and her heart of gossip gradually rose.

Cui Meng shook his head, his face became serious, and he replied: "That day, Xiao Da came to me with a face of panic and told me that he saw that Jingui's daughter-in-law was actually a goblin!"

"Fairy?" Nanna glanced at the candied haws in her hand, suddenly she lost her appetite.

Ye Hua glanced at Cui Meng, then at Qingying, Nannan and Yaya.

He suddenly wanted to tell Cui Meng that the three beauties in front of him were all goblins.

"I wonder what kind of goblin that is?" Pu Songling was silent for a long time, and then asked Cui Meng.

Cui Meng shook his head, with a sad expression on his face: "I don't know, because Xiao Da died the next day before I asked."

Ye Hua took a breath. This was the first time he heard the news about goblins harming people.

However, he was not sure whether it was true, even though there was indeed a tombstone hidden in the shade of greenery, and the tombstone said "Xiaoda's Tomb", but Cui Meng's one-sided words could not be taken for granted in this murder case.

Cui Meng sighed again: "Hey, Xiao Da has no father or mother, so I can only build a tomb for him here, I hope he can live better down here."

"How did Xiao Da die?" Ye Hua asked after thinking for a moment.

Cui Meng suddenly became angry, and shouted: "Heavenly murderer! Xiaoda died so badly! All blood was gone from his whole body, and his eyes were still wide open. You can't die with peace!"

"Hey..." Cui Meng sighed again, and said sadly, "If I had known, I would not have taken him to Jingui's mansion as a long-term worker."

"Is there anything special?" Ye Hua asked again.

Cui Meng replied seriously: "Speaking of something special, I heard the old man who did the autopsy in the Yamen say that there were three small holes the size of flies on the soles of Xiaoda's feet! There were also three blood marks on his neck, and it seemed like his whole body had been sucked out. Got it!"

Pu Songling muttered: "It doesn't sound artificial..."

Ye Hua nodded, and muttered, "It's really like those demons and ghosts!"

Qingying, Nannan and Yaya looked at each other without saying a word.

"That's what I guessed. Xiaoda just found out that Jin Gui's wife was a goblin, and she disappeared the next day. It must have been the goblin woman who killed her and silenced her!
"My good brother, it's just gone, if this goes on, I will make Jingui's family pay for it with blood!
"It's just, hey, my mother is old now, if I commit a crime of life and get arrested, no one will take care of my mother..."
