Chapter 791 The Xia Family’s Evil Deeds
Chapter 791 The Xia Family’s Evil Deeds
Zhao Jinhua didn't feel tired from running back and forth. Instead, she was very excited: "Someone has accused the Xia family of evil deeds again! It's the other two widows in Courtyard No. 1!"
"Oh my god! It turns out their men didn't die for no reason either. They were also killed by the Xia family!"
"No wonder there are so many widows in Courtyard No. 1! It turns out it's all the Xia family's doing!"
"Originally, they said the widows in Courtyard No. 1 were well-behaved and rarely went out. It turns out they have no freedom at all. The Xia family members take turns watching them and won't let them go out at all!"
"too frightening!"
What happened to the Xia family in Courtyard No. 1 today completely overturned everyone's three views.
Even Zhao Jinhua, who wasn't a completely righteous person, felt a chill down her spine: "Such a demon is actually right next to us! How terrifying!"
Mrs. Jin made a pot of popcorn and confined all the children in the yard to her house, not allowing them to come out to listen.
The main reason is that the things that have been revealed about the Xia family in Courtyard No. 1 are so shocking that they don’t want their children to hear them.
They gathered in Mrs. Tang's room and listened to Zhao Jinhua tell them the news.
Mrs. Jin was really surprised: "Why didn't they resist?"
Zhuang Jingjing was equally puzzled: "We've been here for so long, and we only heard some noise recently. Before, their yard was quiet and peaceful, and we didn't hear any sound at all."
Zhao Jinhua patted her chest in fear, her face looking grim. "Don't talk about you guys. I've been here for a few years now, and I didn't think anything was wrong with Courtyard No. 1!"
Mrs. Tang: "Yes, there was no movement before, which means these women must have cooperated with the men of the Xia family. They would not say a word no matter how they were bullied and humiliated. Then why is Wang Cuilan being beaten like this now?"
Zhao Jinhua didn't know either, so she stood up and said, "I'll go check it out again!"
After saying that, he took a sip of water, turned around and ran out!
Ye Shu analyzed: "Those women obeyed because the Xia family had their weak points in their grasp and they had no choice but to submit."
"Wang Cuilan doesn't want to give in anymore. Maybe it's because... she finally knows the truth about her man's death?"
Until dark, Zhao Jinhua brought back a lot of news, but they were all about what evil deeds the Xia family had committed during the interrogation.
What is shocking is that almost all members of the Xia family are bad people, even the babbling children are not innocent. They all think that it is normal for the widows in the yard to be bullied and abused.
They have even become numb and will only add insult to injury. They will never think of helping them pass on information or asking for help even once.
They would even stand guard in the yard and alert them if they tried to escape!
Zhao Jinhua was exhausted from running back and forth to gather information. She took a gulp of cold water and sighed, "No wonder the kids in Yard 1 don't come out to play so often!"
The children of several widows were not allowed to go out, and the children of the Xia family acted as so-called guards!
After listening to the shocking news for a whole day, everyone was numb to the shock.
Ye Shu's speculations were confirmed two days later when Huo Yisheng finally returned home after finishing the case that had shocked the entire Wumu Town.
Huo Yisheng: "Wang Cuilan always thought her husband was still alive and had been working at the kiln factory. She didn't return because she was afraid of the Xia family's influence. The Xia family hinted to her that they had people in the garrison area, the public security system, and the security department."
Therefore, when Bai Tianwang Cuilan saw Huo Yisheng and the others, her first reaction was to retreat in fear.
She thought that it was the Xia family's backers who came to help her and that she was dead.
"Not long ago, the widow of the Sun family told her that her husband was dead, and that's when she started to resist."
Because of resistance, he was beaten and abused.
She cried for help, and the noise was heard by outsiders, which led to the street office and security department coming to her house a few days ago to check what was going on.
Ye Shu asked, "Then why didn't the other two families report the Xia family's evil deeds?"
Huo Yisheng: "Because of the child, because they want to live, and because they all think that the Xia family has a strong background."
After further analysis, Ye Shu roughly understood that although Widow Sun succumbed to the tyranny of the Xia family and had to pretend to be nice to them for the sake of her children's comfort, she still wanted to break free from the cage and give it a try.
But she herself didn't dare.
It just so happened that she knew the truth about the death of Wang Cuilan's husband, so she told her, wanting her to charge into the front.
The fact was just as she expected. Wang Cuilan, who lost her lover, really rebelled.
It just so happened that Huo Yisheng and the others were investigating this matter.
The old man from the countryside also met the second son of the Xia family by chance and suspected that he was the person behind the crime who paid his own son to commit the crime.
Although he had disguised his appearance when he went to the countryside to look for someone, the old man had sharp eyes and could tell most of the person's appearance by looking at his figure and facial features.
After identifying the person, Huo Yisheng came to him again to discuss cooperation, and he agreed without hesitation.
So this scene happened that day.
The old man has only two sons, and both of them are now in jail because of the second son of the Xia family. His wife is seriously ill and has no money for medical treatment. It seems that she will not live long.
He had no more scruples. At worst, he could catch these evil guys and then wait for his wife in the afternoon!
Finally, the bomb of the Xia family was completely detonated.
It was completely cleaned out before the Chinese New Year.
Huo Yisheng told her that a total of fifteen skeletons were dug out from under the Xia family's house. One was Wang Cuilan's husband, one was Widow Sun's husband, and the remaining thirteen were real members of the Xia family.
Their identities were replaced, their lives were lost, and they disappeared from this world.
The situation of the Xia family was reported to the entire Wumu Town one day before the New Year.
After the notification, the sentence will be passed, but this requires going through the process and cannot be decided in a day or two. It will definitely have to wait until after the New Year.
Huo Yisheng told Ye Shu, "Old Man Xia and the eldest and second sons of the Xia family will be sentenced to death. Their evil deeds are obvious, and death alone will not be enough to appease the public anger."
"The others are all laborers and cannot be wasted. They will all be sent to Baoshan Village to produce grain!"
The neighbors around here all want to burn some paper to commemorate the innocent souls who are buried under Yard No. 1, and also to feel more at ease living nearby.
But the current environment prohibits feudal superstitions, and we cannot engage in rituals such as burning paper.
So, everyone came up with an idea to spread wine in front of the gate of No. 1 Courtyard, including yellow wine, white wine, rice wine and other kinds of wine, just to ask:
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, so please don't come to the wrong person. Although we live nearby, we really didn't know you were murdered. We are all innocent! From now on, we will toast you with a glass of wine every New Year and every festival! So please don't come to the wrong door!"
They were all frightened by the fifteen skeletons buried under Yard No. 1.
On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Ye Shu had just coaxed the twins to sleep when he heard some noise in the yard outside.
When I walked out, I saw two women kneeling in front of Mrs. Tang's door, crying.
