Chapter 458 Take the initiative to give away the head
"I didn't expect that the old guy was still alive. He fell from such a height and didn't fall to death."
Wan Shouchun sighed, looking very disappointed.
Zhou was a little confused and glanced at him suspiciously and said, "You can't let the village chief's family hear what you said. It seems like you are hoping that something will happen to the village chief. Forget it, don't say that. You go there today."
Have you harvested anything on the mountain? If you are hungry, I will cook."
Mrs. Zhou was about to go to the kitchen as she spoke, but she heard Wan Shouchun behind her say: "Don't I just want him to die? If he doesn't die, when will I have a chance to get ahead?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou frowned instantly: "Can't you think of something good? Besides, you don't have to be the clan leader. If you have too many things to do and are troubled all day long, how many benefits can you get? Let's just
Live your life in a down-to-earth manner and stop thinking about what you have and what you don’t have.”
After saying this, Mrs. Zhou ignored him and went directly into the kitchen to cook.
But Wan Shouchun laughed on the spot. What do you mean he only thinks about something all day long?
Now he is the only person of the right age in the tribe who can read a few words, and he is the most outstanding among his peers. It has been agreed before that if the village chief resigns, he will be the next village chief and clan leader.
But recently I heard that the village chief asked his youngest grandson to teach his eldest son how to read. He is still learning to read even at an old age. Doesn't he just want to give this position to his son?
It was something that originally belonged to him, why should he give it to the eldest son of the village chief?
Besides, why is it not good to be the village chief or clan chief? Because you are a bit powerful, who in the village dares to disobey the village chief? Especially the Zhao family, which has become prosperous in the past year, still has no idea how much money it has given to the village chief’s house.
.
Although the village chief is smart and never tells anyone, everyone lives in the same village, so who doesn’t know who the other is?
During this period of time, no matter what happened to the Zhao family, they would call the village chief. The village chief was always biased towards the Zhao family, so why did he ever consider the feelings of the clan members?
If he sits in this position, then the person the Zhao family wants to fawn over will become him, and the money will go into his pocket, and then his family's life will be as easy as that of the village chief's family.
But Mrs. Zhou said that being a village chief has many things and is troublesome, which is just a woman's opinion!
He remembered that he had struck hard, but it was incomprehensible that the old guy was still alive.
Yes, he was the one who pushed the village chief down the hillside.
He knew that during this period, the village chief would always go up the mountain with his female family members, hoping to catch some game back. Although he never gained much, he still liked to run up the mountain, so he would stay in the place where the village chief often went in advance, and when he found the opportunity
, pushed him hard in the back.
I thought that the old guy was too old and would definitely die if he fell from such a high place, and he was worried about being seen by the surrounding villagers, so he didn't go to check it in person. Now it seems that he should have thrown another stone down and sent him away.
Give him a ride!
He clenched his fists, feeling a little angry.
What if the old guy wakes up and says it was him?
Although he moved his hands from behind, it is not ruled out that the old man could see him, and he was not very at ease.
No, he has to go and see for himself to feel reassured!
After saying that, he got up and walked out. When Zhou saw him, he shouted, but he ignored him.
At the village chief's house, Zhao Huanyu was worried about going back before the village chief woke up. Originally, Mrs. Gao planned to ask her family to send food over, but she was forced to have a meal at the village chief's house by the village chief's wife.
After all, there were guests here, and the village chief's family was not very poor. They served them with white rice and bacon. The eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief's family was very good at cooking and the taste was very good. Zhao Huanyu was very happy to eat.
When the bowl of rice has just bottomed out, Wanshouchun comes.
"Auntie, are you eating?"
It was actually very impolite to visit during meal time, but he didn't care about being polite at all. Now he just wanted to confirm the village chief's situation, so he still came to the door shamelessly.
When the village chief's wife saw him, she smiled and said, "Shou Chun, come in and have dinner together!"
"If you don't want to eat, don't eat. I just came down from the mountain now. I heard my wife said that my uncle was injured. I was a little anxious and wanted to come over and have a look. You guys eat your food. I'll go see my uncle and then leave!"
Because Zhao Huanyu and the others were there tonight, the village chief and his family were eating in the yard. He took a glance and saw that the table was full of good meat and vegetables, which was better than what his family ate during the Chinese New Year.
If he were the village chief, he would be able to eat these good things every day.
The village chief's son stood up quickly and said, "Brother Shouchun, let's have a meal together. My father is not awake yet, so there is no point in going to see him!"
"Yes, brother Shouchun, let's eat first! Didn't you just come down from the mountain? You must not have eaten yet, let's eat together! We are all family members, don't let others see you!"
The second son of the village chief also stood up. He was a visitor, and the relationship between the two families was not bad, so he still needed to say hello.
Wan Shouchun didn't mean it at first, but looking at the table full of meat, he was really greedy, so he still sat down to eat together.
Then the village chief's daughter-in-law handed over a bowl of white rice. He held the bowl and was reluctant to eat it. His family had never eaten such white rice.
Although the family has always grown food, these good things are either given to the elderly and children to eat occasionally, or they are sold in the town. The two of them are reluctant to eat them.
But now everyone in the village chief's family is eating white rice, as if they were eating bran noodles.
Thinking like this, my heart became more and more unbalanced. The village chief must die so that he can sit in this position safely and gain the favor of the Zhao family, so that their family can live a good life.
"Brother Shouchun, eat quickly!"
The village chief's son put a piece of meat into his bowl, and then put other vegetables in his bowl with a very enthusiastic attitude.
He took a bite, and the aroma of rice filled his mouth, which made him so excited that he wanted to cry. When everyone saw it, they thought something had happened to him.
His answer was: "It's nothing. I'm just too worried about my uncle. I need to be alone. If something goes wrong, something will happen. I'm so panicked."
As he said this, he actually wiped away his tears, which made people feel uncomfortable.
The village chief's wife finally stopped crying. Now that she saw Wan Shouchun like this, her eyes turned red again.
Mrs. Gao quickly said: "Oh, didn't I tell you that everything will be fine? Just stop crying. It will definitely be fine with Xiaoyu here!"
After hearing these words, Wan Shouchun was stunned for a moment, and his expression turned gloomy. However, the expression passed away and soon returned to normal.
Mrs. Gao turned her head to look at the village chief's wife, so she didn't notice Yang Shouchun's expression.
Zhao Huanyu was different. She sat opposite Wan Shouchun and watched his every move.
Zhao Huanyu had the memory of the original owner and knew this Wan Shouchun. She had always had a good relationship with the village chief's family and was the village chief's nephew.
Wan Shouchun grew up with the village chief's sons. He could read a few words and could hunt. He was considered an outstanding person among his peers.
If she hadn't seen his expression just now, Zhao Huanyu would not have suspected anything, but he was obviously hiding something and had bad intentions at first glance, so she immediately became on guard.
With this thought in mind, she tentatively said: "Yes, if it's definitely no problem here, I will definitely cure the village chief's grandfather!"
As she spoke, she paid attention to Wan Shouchun's actions and found that his expression did change, but it might be that he was trying his best to suppress his emotions in front of everyone.
But even so, if his acting skills are not up to standard, it is still easy for Zhao Huanyu to see flaws.
"Really? That's great, so I said that my uncle Ji Ren has his own destiny, and he will definitely be fine! But my family said that my uncle was seriously injured, so I hurriedly wanted to come over.
Look, it’s great to be okay, hahaha…”
In order to express his happiness, he laughed twice, but it became more and more abrupt.
Because his smile is uglier than crying, a normal person can spot something fishy at a glance.
However, the village chief and his family felt that he would not be a bad person. Seeing him like this, they thought they were really worried about the village chief, and instead comforted him.
After dinner, the son of the village chief took Wan Shouchun to see the village chief. The village chief still didn't wake up and his face was still very pale. It seemed that he would not live long. When he came out, Wanshou Village still had a smile on his face.
Zhao Huanyu quietly observed the smile and kept it in mind.
"Since my uncle is fine, I'm relieved. Xiaoyu, my uncle is begging you to save him!"
When he said the word "rescue", he deliberately bit it very hard. It seemed that he was very concerned about the village chief's life, but in fact, Zhao Huanyu could hear a different emotion.
Very good, he is now very sure that the reason why the village chief got into trouble is definitely related to Wanshouchun.
If Wan Shouchun didn't come tonight, she might still have some doubts. After all, Wan Qing's suspicion has been eliminated. From the current point of view, there is really no one who would have the opportunity to take action.
But this Wan Shouchun couldn't hold back her anger and came to her door herself, so it's no wonder that she wanted to solve this case.
After Wan Shouchun left, the village chief's wife said tactfully: "Xiaoyu, I may have to trouble you to guard my old man tonight. We are not very good at medicine. If something happens, I'm afraid I won't have time to call you at your house...
…”
The village chief's wife wanted her to keep vigil. Of course, others would be there, but if Zhao Huanyu was there, everyone would feel more at ease.
Zhao Huanyu thought about the friendship between the two families, so naturally she would not refuse. That was her original plan.
But before going in to watch the night, there was one thing she must let the village chief's family know.
"Grandma the village chief, I think I already know who attacked the village chief grandpa."
One sentence made the village chief and his family stunned.
"Who is he? How did you find out?"
The son of the village eldest son was the most excited, his hands clenched into fists involuntarily. Don't let him know which son of a bitch attacked his father, otherwise he would make that person regret it.
"If I guess correctly, it's Wanshouchun."
"What!"
At this time, not only the village chief and his family were surprised, but even Mr. Gao's eyes widened.
The second son of the village chief said: "Xiaoyu, we can't talk nonsense! Brother Shouchun has a good relationship with my family. He has grown up with us since he was a child, and we still trust his character very much!"
"People should not be judged by their appearance. When we were having dinner, he repeatedly asked you about the situation of the village chief's grandpa. After hearing that you said that the village chief's grandpa's situation had improved, his expression immediately changed. A normal person would definitely do this.
I'm happy, but he keeps smiling, so it's hard for people not to doubt him."
Zhao Huanyu analyzed calmly. She knew that the village chief and his family would not believe it easily, so she continued: "If I remember correctly, Wan Shouchun has also been hunting to supplement the family income recently. There are very few people who hunt all year round in the village. There are Uncle Dashan, Wanshou
Chun, there are two other uncles, but except for Wan Shouchun, there is no movement from the other three. At present, Wan Shouchun is the most suspected."
"If you don't believe it, I have another way to verify it."
The village chief's son immediately asked: "What can we do?"
Zhao Huanyu curled her lips and said, "Let him get what he wants."
After that, Zhao Huanyu went in to help the village chief with acupuncture. He couldn't wake up on his own, so he had to rely on external force to wake him up. At present, her complexion has improved a lot, Zhao Huanyu is still very confident.
After performing a set of acupuncture techniques, he broke out in sweat and the village chief's face became paler. This was mainly due to some collapse and was a normal phenomenon.
But now is the most suitable time for acting. Following Zhao Huanyu's instructions, everyone told the surrounding families about the village chief's current situation.
In particular, he asked the village chief's second son to inform Wan Shouchun that the village chief might not survive the night.
Sure enough, Wanshou Spring came in full swing, and I saw the village chief covered with a thick quilt, his face as pale as a dead man, and there was only air coming out but no air coming in.
Without saying anything, Wan Shouchun knelt on the ground and started crying. He looked even sadder than the village chief's two sons.
"Uncle Village Chief, open your eyes and look at me. I am Shouchun!"
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, Uncle Village Chief, your life is so miserable! How could such a good thing end up in ruins?”
"Now that you have passed away like this, what should we do?!"
His cry was quite contagious, and several tribesmen around him were moved to tears by him. As expected, he grew up with the village chief's son. He really regarded the village chief as his own father!
However, after being reminded by Zhao Huanyu, the village chief's family can now see Wan Shouchun's poor acting skills at a glance.
Why didn't you notice it when you were eating just now?
The village chief's son clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, just to see if he would reveal his true colors.
At this time, Zhao Huanyu said: "The situation of the village chief grandfather has worsened, and I can't do anything about it. But once the village chief grandfather leaves, there will be no village chief in this village. As a person with a foreign surname, I shouldn't say this."
, but the village chief grandpa is kind to me, so I want to make the decision for the village chief grandpa and help him choose a descendant..."
"Hey, when will it be your turn to take charge of the affairs of our Wan family? Shouldn't this kind of thing be discussed by ourselves?"
Someone in the crowd spoke dissatisfiedly, and it seemed that he also wanted to compete for the position of village chief.
