Qinghe Pastoral

Liu Guilian was paralyzed and slurred her speech. She couldn't communicate at all, and she had to be waited on when she ate and drank.

Zhou Qihuan was pregnant, and Liu Yunqiao didn't even enter Liu Guilian's house very much, let alone take care of her personally. Lin Xue had to buy a woman to take care of Liu Guilian.

Lin is a person with a good face. After the incident with Mrs. Ma, she didn't go out very much. Now that Liu Guilian has become like this again, she doesn't go out much.

"Hey, dad has been feeling really bad these days."

Under the shade of the tree, Lin Mu was lying on Ji Ruixiu's lap, his tone full of worry.

"It will be fine in a while, don't worry too much."

Ji Ruixiu just came back yesterday, so many changes happened to the second room in just a few days, even he was unavoidably surprised.

"What I'm more worried about now is if Liu Yunqiao did all these things, will she do crazier things, and the final impact will be Brother An."

Mrs. Ma's matter must have been done by Liu Yunqiao, so what about Liu Guilian's falling into the water?If Liu Yunqiao has reached this level, what is the next step?Will she do crazier things?This is what Lin Mu is most worried about now.Lin Zian, a 17-year-old Juren old man who has grown into a talent at a young age, would be fine if he was ruined by such a family.

"At the riverside that day, Zhou Qihuan also asked strange questions, but now that Liu Guilian can't open her mouth, the truth is unknown."

"You have to believe that no matter how crazy Liu Yunqiao is, he will still be scruples about safety, and some things are arranged in the dark. Let's pay more attention to it in the future. You can see that your brows are frowning together."

Ji Ruixiu lowered his head and kissed Lin Mu's eyebrows, Lin Mu closed his eyes subconsciously, Ji Ruixiu's kiss made him lose his thoughts, and could only immerse himself in Ji Ruixiu's tenderness.

When Lin Mu returned home, the house was empty. It was already dusk, and Xu Xiuqin was not at home. Lin Mu was a little surprised.

"Where did mother go? There's no fire on the stove, it's really strange."

"Maybe you have something to go out, why don't Mu'er Xiaolu cook well?"

"Okay, let Master Ji have a taste of small cooking skills."

The two were busy in the kitchen, but Xu Xiuqin came back at this moment, alone.

"Mother, where have you been? Why is your face so bad? Where's Chen'er?"

"An accident happened to the second room again, and Zhou Qihuan died."

Lin Mu was so shocked that he couldn't speak. The person who came to see Lin Chen yesterday and asked Xu Xiuqin how to be a mother died unexpectedly.

"W-how did you die?"

Xu Xiuqin looked very bad, and she must have been quite shocked.

"At noon, Lin Xue came to look for Zhou Qihuan, but Zhou Qihuan didn't come to the house today. I thought she was just going for a stroll. Unexpectedly, an hour ago, Lin Youqian ran home in a panic and said that he saw it at Qingfengya. Zhou Qihuan's body came to our house first because our house was close. Your father and the others went up the mountain to see that it was indeed Zhou Qihuan. I just found out. Chen'er is at Aunt Zhou's house next door, and I was just bringing him back."

Lin Mu looked at Xu Xiuqin who was walking away, his mind was in chaos, Zhou Qihuan died, he died in Qingfengya.

Qingfengya is already close to the hinterland of Dayan Mountain. There are often wolves there, and the villagers seldom set foot there. How could Zhou Qihuan go there so well?In recent days, one after another, it has become more and more strange and frightening.

A terrible thought flashed through Lin Mu's mind, how crazy can a person be on the verge of collapse?He can only pray that this matter will not be related to the people in the second room, otherwise, the 17 years of studying hard in the cold window will be in vain. How can Lin Zian withstand such a blow?

"Xiu, could it be that she did it?"

Lin Mu's voice trembled violently, and he was filled with fear.Seeing Lin Mu's appearance, Ji Ruixiu put down his work, hugged him in his arms, and whispered softly, "Don't scare yourself, the government will find out the truth."

Because of this sudden news, Lin Mu is restless, so why not go to the second room to have a look.

"No, I have to go and see."

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Ji Ruixiu also knew why Lin Mu was worried, so he thought about going to see the situation. Just as the two were about to go out, they met Xu Xiuqin who came back with Lin Chen in his arms.

Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature, but Zhou Qihuan is not an old man, she is still young, and there is an unborn child in her belly. People will always feel a little scared when such a person dies suddenly and so strangely.It was getting dark, Lin Mu stopped and decided to stay at home so that Xu Xiuqin would not be afraid.

Neither the mother nor the son was in the mood to cook, so Ji Ruixiu had to cook by himself. The three of them ate a little, and then waited for Lin Sheng to come back by the stove.

Lin Mu held Lin Chen in his arms, Lin Chen's eyes were extraordinarily bright at night, so radiant and agile, Lin Mu felt Lin Chen's warmth, and his heart gradually calmed down.The person is dead, the matter is a foregone conclusion, and there is nothing to worry about or fear.

When it was completely dark, Lin Sheng came back, he looked very tired, Xu Xiuqin hurriedly took out the warm food, Lin Sheng only ate a little.

"Father, has something been found out?"

"It was too late, the government carried Zhou Qihuan's body back, and said that they would not know how he died until Ming'er's autopsy."

After Lin Sheng finished speaking, there was another silence. At this moment, no one knew what to say.

It was three quarters past midnight, and Qinghe Village was completely silent. Lin Mu nestled in Ji Ruixiu's arms, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

"Can't sleep?"

"Well, why isn't it daylight yet?"

Those thoughts are constantly being cut, and the reason is still chaotic. Only when the dawn dawns, the truth hidden in the darkness will emerge. It may be reassuring, but it may be an abyss of despair.

"When I was young, my mother often sang me a lullaby, and I will sing one for you too."

Ji Ruixiu's voice was deep and gentle, which made people feel very reassured in such a night. Lin Mu listened to Ji Ruixiu's low tone, buried his head deeply in his arms, let his thoughts fly away, and gradually fell asleep. past.

Hearing Lin Mu's gentle breathing, Ji Ruixiu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He kissed Lin Mu lightly again before closing his eyes.

In the past hundred years, there has never been a murder case in Qinghe Village. When this happened, people panicked.

Lin Wei hurriedly summoned the men in the village and told them to take care of the family and not spread the word about it. Not only would it affect the reputation of Qinghe Village, but it would also affect the marriage of the younger generation.The men agreed verbally, but they had no idea in their hearts. How could they hide the murder case that alarmed the government?

Rumors about Zhou Qihuan's death spread everywhere, besides being murdered, even the theory of ghosts was also rampant.No wonder, the country people believed in ghosts and gods, and Zhou Qihuan died in Qingfengya. I heard from my ancestors that there was an ancient battlefield a hundred years ago, and no one knew how many dead bodies were buried in the ground.

Lin Sheng went to the old house again early in the morning. The two elders are now bedridden, Lin Xue is also in a slump, Liu Yunqiao is taciturn, how can Lin Sheng abandon the kindness of giving birth?

"Mom, let's go see my aunt?"

In recent days, Lin Yue was quite sad because of Liu Guilian's incident. When she heard the news of Zhou Qihuan's death, she fainted and fell ill. Lin Mu was a little worried, so she wanted to see Xu Xiuqin.

"Alright."

Ji Ruixiu never went back, so he went to visit Lin Yue with his mother and son.

A few people passed by the square, but saw many people gathered there, all talking about the same thing. Today, what happened in Qinghe Village is more serious than a murder case.

"Here, why did a good person die? There are still two dead bodies. I couldn't sleep last night. I was so scared."

"No, my man went to work in the county and didn't come back. I slept with my mother-in-law last night. Can the government find out? Where did such a thing happen in Qinghe Village?"

"This is also strange. The second room of the Lin family has offended the gods, right? The connection of all these piles is really infiltrating. It has been several days, and it has not stopped for a day."

Several women were discussing, when someone caught a glimpse of Lin Mu's family, they inevitably came to talk again.No wonder it was so, although the Dafang and Erfang had never been close, they were close relatives after all, and it was natural for those villagers to be curious.

"The government is already investigating, and I believe there will be results soon."

"Yes, but even so, I still panic."

Lin Mu and the others didn't want to talk too much with these women, so they said a few words and left.

"Well, do you think there will be retribution? Everyone knows that the second room was sorry for Lin Sheng's family back then. Look at the current situation, the big house is in turmoil, but the second room is ruined."

"Maybe it's true, I heard..."

Those comments got farther and farther away, Lin Mu frowned, sometimes these so-called ignorant women are really disgusting.Talking about fear in my heart, why didn't I use it as a talking point to publicize it.There is no empathy in this world. Only when some things happen to me can I understand how I feel.

When they arrived at Lin Yue's house, they saw Lin Quan talking with Liu Liping in the yard. The two had already started discussing marriage, and the marriage would probably be done by the end of the year.

Lin Quan also cares about Liu Liping in every detail. Although Lin Quan has hunting skills, there are risks in the end. Ji Ruixiu appreciates his character and asks him to learn something from Zhou Dashan from time to time so that he can settle down.

"Mu'er, why are you here?"

"I heard that my aunt is ill. Come and have a look. Is there nothing serious about my aunt?"

"Father said that the palpitations caused the high fever, but now it's better. I didn't sleep well last night. I just drank the medicine and fell asleep."

Since Lin Yue fell asleep, it was difficult for them to go in, so they sat down in the yard.

Liu En was well-behaved and sensible. He quickly poured water for a few people and brought out some melon seeds and candies.

"Where's uncle? Why can't you see anyone?"

"I heard that my grandfather was also sick. My mother went to the old house after going to bed. I didn't sleep well last night. I got up early and had a headache, so I stayed at home."

Even if they were not related, how many people in Qinghe Village were sleepless last night?What's more, Lin Xue's family treats Lin Yue well, and the mood of Lin Yue's family is understandable.
