Yin Le's face didn't look good either. She knew that although Bai Zi was sometimes imprudent, he didn't act recklessly. If there was a dispute between the two, there must be a reason for it. She didn't want to blame all the mistakes on Bai Zi. So, at this moment, she didn't want to
Apologize to him on behalf of Bai Zi.
Shou crossed his fingers, twirling his thumbs and rolling his eyes. He looked at the faces of Chu Ye and Yin Le and did not dare to say anything.
Xing'er quickly smoothed things over, "Okay, this is just a misunderstanding."
The door was pushed open with a bang, and a woman's figure came in like a whirlwind. The next moment, she sat on a chair and said, "What's the misunderstanding? Tell me!"
The visitor was none other than Lu Yang. No one invited her, so she came on her own.
Xing'er quickly changed the subject and said angrily: "Who invited you? You don't have a share in this meal."
"Don't worry about me. I'll leave as soon as I finish. I'm so busy that I can't even eat well." Lu Yang took Yin Le's tea and took a sip, stretched his neck and sighed, feeling very sad.
"A lot of work?" Yin Le asked when seeing her like this.
"There are many cases. I just took one today and I have a headache." Lu Yang said to himself, clearly intending to break the deadlock between Yin Le and Chu Ye.
"What case? Tell me about it." Xing'er asked with interest.
Lu Yang looked at Xing'er and asked, "Have you seen Mo Yan's big breasts and fat butt?"
Xing'er nodded, "I've seen it, what's wrong?"
Lu Yang shook his head helplessly, "I always thought Mo Yan was nonsense. How could a mother-in-law and her husband ignore their daughter-in-law when she was giving birth and just help the donkey deliver the baby? But in reality, such a thing really happens."
"Oh?" Xing'er looked at her sideways.
Lu Yang said: "The mother-in-law had given birth to three daughters before, and her parents-in-law were very dissatisfied. Others claimed that this baby was a daughter, so when the daughter-in-law came to give birth, the mother-in-law ignored her and asked her to give birth in the room by herself while she asked for help.
A dog delivered a child with dystocia. As a result, the mother died due to dystocia and the child was a boy. The husband’s family came to sue, saying that the daughter-in-law strangled her son to death in revenge.”
"Ah? There is such a thing?" Yin Le was slightly shocked, "Have you found out?"
Lu Yang looked at Xing'er, "Do you know who the husband of this pregnant woman is?"
Yin Le glanced at her, "Do you think I will know?"
Lu Yang shook his head, "It's Mu Rentong, the general accountant of your store."
"Mr. Mu?" Yin Le was stunned, "Is it him?"
"That's him." Lu Yang sighed. "Mu's family is considered a middle-class family. It can't be said to be very rich, but it's decent. They didn't even invite a stable mother-in-law. I heard from the neighbors that the mother-in-law threatened to have another child.
She would have strangled her daughter to death or given it away, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a baby boy. She had been looking forward to her whole life and finally hoped for a grandson, but the grandson died. She couldn't understand it and sued her daughter-in-law."
"What did Mu Rentong say?" In my memory, Mu Rentong has always been a rational and open-minded person. How could he do such a mess?
"Mu Rentong is not in the capital." Lu Yang glanced at her, "Don't you know?"
Only then did Yin Le remember that she had recently sent Mu Rentong to Jizhou to reconcile the accounts with the branch.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Chu Ye finally calmed down his anger and asked quietly: "Have you ever examined the dead baby boy? Was he suffocated in the mother's body or strangled to death?"
Lu Yang smiled bitterly: "The baby boy was thrown into the river a long time ago. It is estimated that he has become the food of the fish."
Yin Le was stunned again, "Who threw it in?"
Lu Yang said: "Of course it was my mother-in-law. She threw the baby boy away after she found out that he was dead. She said that if he threw it into the river and the fish would eat his flesh, he could be reincarnated into their home in the future. But when I think about it, the more I think about it, the more inappropriate it becomes.
The more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I became, so I came to complain, saying that my daughter-in-law had strangled her grandson to death."
Xing'er couldn't laugh or cry, "There is no way to start this case!" There is no body, how can it be said that he was strangled to death?
Seeing that everyone's emotions had shifted to this case, Lu Yang looked at Xing'er and said, "That's true, but the mother-in-law hit the wall and kowtowed in the hall, which made me very embarrassed."
"What about the baby boy's mother?" Yin Le asked.
"Has been driven back to her parents' home." Lu Yang said.
Chu Ye pondered for a moment and said: "This case must be investigated carefully. I believe that this kind of patriarchal thought is deeply rooted and has harmed many women. Regardless of whether the mother strangled her child to death,
We need an answer to tell people all over the world that this is the fate of extreme people."
In many areas, you can always see the corpses of baby girls on the ridges of fields. Many people gave birth to a lot of girls and did not want to raise too many girls, so they secretly sent them to the fields and left them to fend for themselves. Someone picked them up. It was her
If you have a good life and no one picks it up, if you die after crying for two days, it is not considered bad luck if you die at home. Most people think so. Baby girls are indeed worthless in their eyes.
Therefore, when Yin Le heard Chu Ye's words, she felt a little emotional. When she was in the Yufeng Sect, she often went out and had encountered such a thing. There were several baby girls in the Yufeng Sect who she rescued at that time.
.
Seeing Yin Le's serious expression, Chu Ye reached out under the table to hold her hand and said, "Don't be sad."
Yin Le raised his head and looked at him and said: "Mu Ren is from Longxing. During the time when he was away from Beijing on business, I was actually obliged to take care of his family. If something like this happened, I felt bad.
, I’ll go take a look tomorrow.”
Chu Ye said: "I'll go with you!"
"You have a lot to do, so I'll do it myself." Yin Le was touched by his thoughtfulness, but she also knew that he was very busy recently and didn't want him to have to worry about this matter anymore.
Shoutou listened there for a long time and suddenly said in a daze: "There is no reason for a mother to strangle her own child to death. I don't believe that a mother would do such a thing."
Chu Ye looked at Shou Tou and said softly: "Shou Tou, mother would not do such a thing."
Shou Tou was uneasy, but when he heard Chu Ye's words, he suddenly felt relieved and said with a smile: "I know that my mother is a good person." He didn't have many memories of his mother, but in his heart, she herself
It is a sacred title.
The unhappiness caused by Bai Zi disappeared after Lu Yang told about the case. Both Yin Le and Chu Ye enjoyed the meal very warmly. Chu Ye kept serving Yin Le, which made Shoutou a little jealous.
Said: "I have short hands and can't pick up the chicken. Brother Leng also helped me."
Chu Ye was speechless and rolled his eyes at him. He had to stretch out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of chicken butt for him and said, "There's a lot of meat, eat it quickly."
Shou Tou stared at the chicken butt in confusion and looked at Yin Le with some embarrassment.
Yin Le said calmly: "I never said you like to eat chicken butts." Shoutou likes to eat chicken butts very much. When he was at home, Liu Qi laughed at him for a long time because he liked to eat chicken butts. For a while, he always sang "Idiot"
Love eating chicken butts”
Shou was so embarrassed that his face felt like it was on fire. He picked up the butt of the chicken with chopsticks and didn't know whether he should eat it or not.
Seeing him like this, Lu Yang put his chopsticks into his bowl and said, "Do you want to eat it? If you don't want to eat it, I can eat it. I also like to eat chicken butts."
Shou Tou blinked and looked at her, "You like to eat too? Then I won't give it to you. Don't you feel embarrassed?" Yin Le and Chu Ye looked at each other and smiled.
"Why do you feel embarrassed?" Xing'er asked after taking a mouthful of rice.
Shoutou thought for a while, yes, why should he feel embarrassed? Then he put the chicken butt in his mouth, smiled at Chu Ye with his mouth full of oil, "Thank you, brother Leng!"
Chu Ye shuddered, and when he saw the fat chicken butt being bitten by his teeth, fat splattered everywhere, he suddenly felt nauseated and lost his appetite.
