I became the villain's deceased wife

When we arrived at Sanhuangli, it was just a quarter past the hour of Chen.

This village is located between Xiangyang Town and Fenglin County. It looks relatively wealthy. The houses in the village all have white walls and red tiles, and the courtyard walls are built with blue bricks.

After asking along the way, someone pointed to a courtyard with two entrances and said that was Qu's family's.

It seems like he's doing pretty well.

After finding the place, Song Tian went forward and knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was an old lady in her fifties, with high cheekbones, a pointed chin, and a rather serious expression.

"Who are you looking for?"

She didn't know Song Tian and asked cautiously.

Song Tian took two steps forward:

"You must be Aunt Qu, right? I am a neighbor of Doctor Liu Shouren, and he asked me to bring a message to you."

When the old woman heard Liu Shouren's name, her face immediately turned stern:

"You've got the wrong person. I don't even know anyone named Liu!"

Saying that, he was about to close the door.

Song Tian quickly stepped forward and blocked the door.

"Aunt, the villagers said that there is only one family with the surname Qu, so I must have found the right place.

No matter what grudge you had with Doctor Liu before, now that he has been falsely accused of premeditated homicide and is in prison, his last wish is to see you.

It is said that it takes a hundred years to be able to ride the same boat together, and a thousand years to be able to sleep on the same pillow together.

After all, we are husband and wife. He may not survive this disaster. Please go and see him."

According to Yang Shucai, Qu left with her child in anger because her attempts to persuade Doctor Liu were fruitless.

After all, they were husband and wife, and Song Tian felt that there was no need for her to refuse to see each other until she died.

Sure enough, when Qu heard that he was sent to prison, her eyes showed some surprise.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Song Tian nodded quickly:

"I have never met your aunt before, so there is no need to lie to you. I just happened to see Doctor Liu being taken away by the police yesterday, and that's when I learned about this matter.

Doctor Liu was completely desperate and wanted to die. He refused to answer any questions.

The only thing I miss is that I am here to bring you a letter, asking if you can go visit him again."

Qu's eyes dimmed and she finally let go of the door that was about to close.

"I've long advised him not to go against the powerful, as the situation is more important than anything else, but he just won't listen!"

It can be seen that Qu still has some feelings for her old partner. After hearing what Song Tian said, she seemed to be quite disappointed with him.

Song Tian sighed and briefly explained the whole story.

"This matter cannot be entirely blamed on Doctor Liu. He reopened Jishengtang because he didn't want your father's hard work to be ruined. Moreover, after what happened last time, he has become much more cautious..."

But I don’t know who I offended this time to end up like this.

"I see."

Qu looked very worried, but still said to Song Tian politely:

"I'm an old woman who never leaves the house, so I don't have any idea what to do when something like this happens.

Whether to go see him or not, we will discuss it after my eldest son comes back."

Song Tian nodded.

After all, the two have been separated for more than ten years. She doesn't know what happened between them in the meantime and has no right to interfere in the affairs of the couple.

"I have already told you, Aunt Qu, please weigh the matter yourself."

After saying that, she said goodbye.

Delivering the message was just a side job; her main task today was to go to Wangnan Village to inquire about the situation.

"How about it?"

Today they hired a ox cart from a coachman's shop. Song Tian was afraid that a strange man might follow Qu and didn't dare to open the door, so he left the two brothers and the vanguard in the cart.

Song Tian shook her head:

"I'm afraid Aunt Qu still has some concerns."

Judging from her expression, she still cares about Dr. Liu, but she is unwilling to go to see him right away, which makes people feel a little cold.

"Let's go. It's still early. Let's go directly to Wangnan Village to find Shopkeeper Yang."

The ox cart turned around and headed for Wangnan Village.

It took nearly an hour before we arrived at the entrance of Wangnan Village.

Compared with the wealthy Sanhuangli, this small village is obviously much more shabby.

Most of the houses in the village are dilapidated, and the fields outside are sparsely planted.

Moreover, this is a mountainous area and the village is built halfway up the mountain, making it inconvenient to get water and farm.

"Big sister, are you here to look for someone or to seek refuge with relatives?"

As soon as she reached the threshing ground at the entrance of the village, the village women who had gathered around her asked her.

"Dear aunts and sisters, has there been a middle-aged man this tall here today?"

I thought that there must be a reason why this village was poor. In such nice weather, these women didn't go to work but just sat together and chatted.

"Oh, you mean the local rich man who came to collect mountain products? He went to the Li family. Are you his daughter?"

An old lady asked while cracking pumpkin seeds.

Song Tian rolled her eyes.

“Not a daughter, but a niece.

My husband is now learning business from his uncle, so I followed him."

As he said this, he turned around and winked at Xie Yunzhe who had caught up with him.

"Why don't you go and help your uncle load the goods? I'll chat with the aunts here."

The place where women gather at the end of the village is the best place to listen to gossip. She asked Xie Yunzhe to find Manager Yang, as she wanted to collect some information here.

Xie Yunzhe understood, nodded, and left with Haoer.

"Oh, your husband is really good-looking, where did you find him?"

The village women all stared at Xie Yunzhe until he was out of sight, then they turned to look at Song Tian.

Song Tian felt a little uncomfortable, but still replied with a smile:

"My uncle is the matchmaker for me."

The thought of finding a husband who is too handsome can be quite troubling sometimes.

"My dear aunts, I love to listen to the excitement. Is there anything new happening in our village recently?"

She moved a small stone and sat among the village women, looking as if she wanted to eat some melon.

When the women saw him, they found that he was a fellow traveler.

They were all full of energy and couldn't wait to share with her the gossip they knew.

"Don't tell me, even though our Wangnan Village is so small, a big thing really happened recently!"

An aunt with thick eyebrows said in an exaggerated tone.

"That's right. Li Dacheng from the village entrance is dead! It is said that he was poisoned by the doctor in town. The case has been reported to the government!"

An old lady with thick lips quickly took over the conversation.

"I think it's pure nonsense..."

A woman in her thirties with a yellow flower in her hair took over the conversation.

Song Tian quickly pricked up his ears and listened quietly.

"I think Li Dacheng's wife couldn't stand his beating, so she poisoned him!"

Song Tian rolled his eyes.

It seems like a worthwhile trip.

"I think you are talking nonsense. Li Dacheng did beat Wang several times, but a woman has to rely on a man to live. Her baby is so young, and a girl. How is she going to live if she poisons the man?"

Women are required to obey their husbands after marriage. If their husbands die and they do not have sons by their side, their property will be taken away by the tribe and they will be driven out.

Can……

"Hasn't she got any family?"

You can also seek refuge with your brothers from your mother's family and ask for shelter.

Some parents who love their daughters will look for a reliable family to remarry them.

"Wang is a refugee. Does anyone know where her family is?"

The aunt with thick eyebrows quickly shook her head.

"If her origins weren't unknown, how could she be with Li Dacheng when she looked like that? There's nothing we can do about it."

The thick-lipped lady also sighed.

The young woman with the flower in her hair also had a sympathetic look on her face:

"That's right, Li Dacheng was ugly, fierce and always beat people up, but he just gave Wang, who was stranded here, a few steamed buns and married her.

To be honest, it’s called marrying, but in reality it’s just robbing.

My mother said that she heard Wang crying heart-wrenchingly in the middle of the night that day..."

All of them were women, and they expressed deep sympathy for Wang's plight, and sighed in unison:

"Hey--"
