Chapter 118 There should be movement in the stomach
Qin An tied up the horse again and said, "I'll go fish it out."
It's not that I'm being nosy, the body is rotting in the river, and there will be no water available.
I feel uncomfortable after using it.
Upon hearing this, Su Yan didn't say anything, "I'll go with you and dig a hole to bury her."
"Don't go." Qin An disagreed.
Su Yan took the hoe and said, "If I don't go, people in the village will think you have something to do with her."
The people in the village are all good, but they are too talkative.
Qin An didn't say anything. The two of them left the yard one after another. Widow Song's body was still floating by the river. In the past, there were many people washing clothes, but now there was no one.
Qin An took off his shirt and shoes and went into the river. The water in the river reached his chest. In fact, no one can be drowned unless he no longer wants to live.
When they fished for people, the villagers came over to watch, pointing at them one by one.
"What is the Qin family doing to fish for Widow Song?"
"He must have a guilty conscience and have an affair."
"That is, if I can be with Widow Li, I will definitely be with Widow Song."
After hearing these words, Su Yan turned to look at them, "I don't know if you are afraid of dreaming at night, but I heard that the dead can still see what we are doing."
"If you do this, Widow Song will come to you one by one at night."
Everyone suddenly became quiet and felt a little scared.
Qin An picked up Widow Song and placed her on the grass. His eyes fell on her, which showed some bruises.
He had obviously been pinched.
Su Yan also saw it and looked at him. The two of them didn't say anything. This matter was not their business and they couldn't control it.
On a nearby hillside, Qin An dug a pit and buried Widow Song, but the Song family paid no attention to it.
When going down the mountain, Su Yan held Qin An's arm and whispered: "Didn't Widow Song die by jumping into the river?"
"Well, the mark on my neck was very deep and I pinched it for a long time." Qin An nodded.
Su Yan felt sad in her heart. People died here without anyone caring about them. No wonder a group of women burned down her house.
If you die, you will die. As long as the village suppresses it, no one will tell you and the government will not know.
She is now even more grateful to have Qin An, otherwise her life would not be easy.
As soon as he returned home, Qin An boiled water, took a bath, and changed all his clothes. After that, he took his horse to the mountains to graze and chop wood to build a stable.
Su Yan washed the mutton she bought at home, stewed a pot of mutton, salted the rest, and hung it on the stove to smoke.
After that, the Wang family's wages were calculated, saying that it was done yesterday, and she took it to Goudan's family after the calculation.
Goudanfu pulled her and gave her an angry look, "Why are you meddling in Widow Song's affairs? You're going to make a fuss."
"The Song family is not a good person. I will rely on you when the time comes."
Su Yan knew she was doing it for their own good, "Vegetable fields need water, and they can't always be in the river."
Goudan's mother also knew this and sighed, "The Song family is really nothing. No matter how wrong she is, she has been the Song family's daughter-in-law for seven or eight years."
"We won't even accept a corpse."
Su Yan didn't hide it from her, "Widow Song probably didn't jump into the river by herself and someone pinched her neck."
Hearing this, Goudan's eyes widened, "It's so weird, even the Song family can do it."
"Widow Song is quite peaceful. It was the two of us who said that it was probably the village chief who threatened her. This happened a few years ago."
The village chief is in charge of the land in the village, and there are many ways he can help. Most people will not offend him.
Only the Qin family can confront him, and there is nothing he can do against the Qin family.
Su Yan also guessed that this was the case. The fact that the village chief could get two taels of silver proved that there was something wrong. "My family has stewed mutton. I will bring it to you later."
"No, you can eat it by yourself. By the way, have you bought a horse?" Goudan asked curiously.
Seeing the young woman nodding, she said with envy: "You two can still make money."
Su Yan smiled and said, "My family is more capable."
"They are quite capable. You should have more children while you are young."
Goudanfu looked at her belly and whispered, "There should be some movement."
With Qin An's physical strength, Su Yan couldn't refute. She smiled sheepishly and said, "Let nature take its course."
After returning home, the flour she had kneaded had already foamed. She grabbed some pickles and rinsed them with water to prevent them from being salty in the pancakes.
The pancakes Qin An bought for her before were filled with salty foods such as pickles, but some meat was also added to them.
After she grabbed the fillings, she wrapped them one by one, and then burned them over a fire. The pickles were fragrant as the bread turned yellow.
She was greedy and tore off a piece and ate it. It tasted pretty good, but the flour was not as good as the one in the county.
But you can’t buy good flour if it’s sold in town, and no one will buy it if it’s expensive.
She was sweating from being in the kitchen that day, and the sweat ran into her eyes. She couldn't move her hands away, so she could only close one eye.
At this time, her vision went dark, and a tall figure walked in. She turned her head slightly and said, "Mr. sir, wipe it for me quickly."
The woman's cheeks were flushed and covered with sweat. He quickly strode to get the handkerchief, came over and wiped her clean carefully, and said with a slightly sullen face: "Don't do it if it's hot."
Su Yan smiled, freed up one hand and tore a piece of pancake to him, "Try it."
Qin An lowered his head and ate it. The pickles inside were a bit burnt and he said seriously: "It's more delicious than those sold in the county."
Su Yan couldn't help laughing, "Everything I cook tastes delicious to you. The flour is a little bad, but it's good to sell."
"I'll go to town and rent a stall to sell it then."
Qin An fetched water and washed his hands, "You teach me and I'll do the ironing."
One person can bake pancakes alone, and Qin An himself doesn't know how to cook. If he is asked to bake pancakes every day, I guess he won't be happy either.
Su Yan didn't want to force him, and said with a smile: "I'm good at doing this, so you can hunt."
"Let's save money together."
While she was cooking, she added: "Go out and take a rest, the kitchen is very hot."
Qin An said "Yeah", turned around and went out, and quickly brought a cattail leaf fan in to fan her.
Su Yan turned her head and took a look, feeling a little warm, "It's okay, it will be baked in a while."
The man still said "yes", but still stood by and fanned her. Su Yan couldn't help but kiss him, "I found that you are still a bit stubborn."
The corners of Qin An's lips raised, he bent down slightly and kissed her back, and said honestly: "I'm not being stubborn with you."
It would be much better if someone fanned her, but the clothes on her back were still wet after all the work. Su Yan took the cake and went to the main room.
Qin An brought warm water and stood at the door of the main room, shouting in a low voice, "Daughter-in-law, come in and I'll wipe it for you."
"good."
Su Yan took a pancake and divided it in half to feed the dog, and then followed Qin An to the house.
After the door was closed, Su Yan found some clean clothes and came out. The bellyband inside was all wet, so she naturally had to change.
However, she was still a little embarrassed to have the rough man watching her in broad daylight, "You go out, I'll do it by myself."
Qin An reached over and bent down to untie her belt, "It won't rub her back."
His eyes fell on the woman's red ears, and he said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, I have seen it all."
