Chapter 923: Chapter 925-Serious Situation
“In short. Wang Zhenzhen was the one who caused the miscarriage and curettage today. It really fulfilled what Yang Yang had said before. If you don’t do it, you won’t die!
Alright, let’s not talk about this annoying gossip.
Yaoyao, you must remember what I told you just now. By the way, do you want us to go with you tomorrow? Also, take a look at the list of people invited to the banquet. If there’s anything you missed, point it out quickly.”
Since Li Muyao and the others were going to hold three graduation banquets, the time in Pinglan County was a little tight. The banquet would be held in three days. Usually, the invited guests would be notified in advance of this kind of banquet. It would take at least a week. After all, not everyone had the time to attend this banquet.
Moreover, it was July and August, but the weather was still so hot during the holidays.
Many of them were still working outside and could not come back at all.
Fortunately, most of the good friends and brothers that Li Dajian knew were like Yang Hongzhi. They either worked in the unit or worked as a small manager in the factory in the county.
Even the worst of them had planted a farm in their own village. They had also worked in the mining industry with the Huo Corporation under Li Muyao’s lead.
It was relatively easy to invite and arrange.
Li Muyao took the name list and looked at it. The names were all familiar to her. After all, Li Muyao had gone out with her father to meet friends and eat and drink more than her two younger brothers. These uncles and aunties were indeed more familiar with Li Muyao.
Even though Li Dajian had passed away five or six years ago, they were still paying attention to Li Muyao and her siblings.
Ever since he learned that Li Muyao had brought her twin brother to Sun City last year, Yang Hongzhi, as the representative of his friends and brothers, had stepped forward to feed Li Muyao peace of mind pills. He told Li Muyao to tell them anything.
In short, even though many of them had opinions about Lin Qin, their hearts ached for Li Muyao and her siblings.
“No, but Auntie Lan and Uncle Yang must make it clear to everyone that no gifts or red packets are allowed. I just wanted to invite everyone to a graduation banquet.
It can also be considered as making up for our family’s share. I remember that when I was young, I often went to banquets with my father. Everyone didn’t bring gifts or red packets, so I didn’t bring anyone this time.”They couldn’t let these uncles and aunties find all kinds of excuses to help them just because their father wasn’t around.
In her previous life, her father’s friends and brothers had always been doing these things in secret. However, Li Muyao only found out about it later. After her rebirth, she had only been close to Yang Hongzhi’s family and Li Zhuoyue’s family.
Li Muyao, on the other hand, had Yang Hongzhi to give everyone a New Year’s gift a month earlier than last year.
“How can this be? Everyone, when your father was around. Alright, I’ll talk to your Uncle Yang later. They should be done folding the paper money. Let’s go out and help.”
When Wu Xiaolan and Yang Hongzhi informed their friends, they had discussed how much each person would pay. After all, they all knew that Li Muyao had to bring her two younger brothers to Jin City alone to live and study. It was especially expensive.
Li Muyao and her siblings had no source of income. Everyone took advantage of these banquets to openly subsidize Li Muyao and her siblings.
However, outsiders might not know, but Wu Xiaolan and Yang Hongzhi knew. Li Muyao now had the ability to make money on her own, and the money she earned in a month was comparable to their annual income.
In addition, Li Dajian’s bursary fund had a six-figure sum each. Li Muyao and her two younger brothers really didn’t need to accept everyone’s red packets.
Therefore, he didn’t say anything that he wanted to help everyone reject.
Since Li Muyao had the ability to bring the entire Pinglan County to generate income, she had to be careful. Many of those who worked in official units like Yang Hongzhi had received some benefits. It seemed too unfamiliar to say thank you. Let’s not say it. It didn’t seem appropriate. However, just like what Li Muyao said, everyone could just treat it as a gathering.
On the contrary, it would make everyone feel that even without Li Dajian as a brother, everyone’s heart was still together.
“Yes.”
Li Muyao and Wu Xiaolan came out to help for less than an hour. All the paper money had been folded into ingots, and the incense used for offering incense had also been carefully wrapped.
Li Muyao wanted Yang Hongzhi and his wife to stay for dinner, but Wu Xiaolan refused, saying that she wanted to inform everyone earlier that she wouldn’t be giving gifts or red packets.
Also, Yang Biaobiao was still watching over Wang Zhenzhen. She was still in her confinement period. No matter how much Wu Xiaolan disliked Wang Zhenzhen, she still felt sorry for her. At home, she used a clay pot to boil blood tonic soup. After nearly three hours, it should be almost done.
After sending them off, Li Muyao had just sat down when Li Muyu and Li Muyang stared at her. Li Muyao thought that there was something dirty on her face. She touched it and didn’t find anything unusual. She looked back at her two younger brothers in amusement and asked,”Why are you looking at me? No, Uncle Yang told you that Wang Zhen was in the hospital, right?”
Wu Xiaolan dragged Li Muyao into the room to talk about this because she was afraid of dirtying her two younger brothers ‘ears.
In addition, it was best for children not to listen to these things.
It was indeed a little disgusting.
It would also corrupt the child’s three views.
Li Muyu and Li Muyang looked at each other and nodded. Then, they worriedly reminded Li Muyao, especially the seriousness on Li Muyang’s face.”Mooncake, you and Brother Ji Ling must be careful. Don’t kill anyone! Anyways, my brother and I can’t accept being a child’s uncle in advance.”
Although Li Muyang matured early, after learning about Wang Zhenzhen’s courting death, he now had some trauma towards women’s pregnancy. She had a miscarriage until she couldn’t have children. I can’t be a mother anymore. Thinking about how much his sister loved Huang Yuying’s son and little Cangshu’s pretty little sister, Li Muyang didn’t dare to imagine what it would be like to blame Wang Zhenzhen’s matter on his sister.
No way!
Because of Li Muyang’s worry, the moment he said this, even the slow-witted Li Muyu noticed the problem.
Li Muyu opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he only said,””Yes, Mooncake. We all believe in you. Therefore, we don’t want to be someone else’s uncle before we reach adulthood. Although we believe you, a man’s mouth is a liar! Even if Brother Ji Ling is very outstanding, you still have to be careful.”
Just now, Uncle Yang had specially instructed them to keep an eye on their sister.
Huo Jiling was indeed outstanding, but their sister was even more outstanding. She couldn’t be fooled by a man. Moreover, Li Muyao was going to university in less than a month. There would definitely be a lot of people trying to get close to her sister.
The two brothers thought about how when their sister was still studying in Pinglan County, there were many male classmates they didn’t know who came to them to give them love letters and gifts…There would be even more of them in university. Besides, Huo Jiling wasn’t by her side, and Li Muyu and Li Muyang couldn’t be by her side all the time.
She had heard many stories of scumbags lying to girls, but most of them were about girls being cheated…This made Li Muyu and Li Muyang feel very uncomfortable and worried. The two brothers naturally trusted their sister, but they did not trust anyone else.
Before their sister and Wu Xiaolan came out, Li Muyu and Li Muyang decided to visit their sister’s school more often in the future.
No matter what, she could not let those people who had designs on her sister cheat her away.
“Yes, yes, yes. You shouldn’t underestimate me if you believe me. I like Ling very much. I will never change my heart and trust others easily.
For Ling and me. Don’t worry, I won’t mess around.
Aiya, can you two brothers stop talking about this topic with me? I really think it’s very strange, okay? Remember to call Senior Brother later and tell him that we’ll set off from home at seven tomorrow.”
After saying that, Li Muyao ran into the kitchen and used the excuse of having to cook dinner to stop talking about this topic with her two younger brothers. Really, Li Muyao felt very awkward. On the contrary, his two younger brothers did not seem to be aware of the awkwardness at all.
Alright, they were like,’As long as I don’t feel awkward, the one who will be awkward will be someone else! ‘
The next day at around 6:30, Li Zhuoyue appeared at the door of Li Muyao’s house. When he entered the door and saw the three siblings eating breakfast, Li Zhuoyue didn’t stand on ceremony and sat down. He drank three bowls of century egg porridge, a glass of milk, and ate two buns before putting down his bowl and chopsticks under the surprised gazes of Li Muyao and the three siblings.
“That’s right, it’s what you see. Last night, I went to the police station with my uncle and the others. I only returned to the county at three o’clock and took a nap at the police station before coming over. Let’s go. I’ll catch up on my sleep when I come back.”
Li Zhuoyue still very consciously confessed some things that could be said. He also apologized to Li Muyao and the other two siblings for not being present on his master’s death anniversary last year.
He didn’t go to the anniversary of his death last year, but when he came back for the new year, Li Zhuoyue went.
“Brother, you don’t have to apologize to us. From this year onwards, we might not be able to come back to see Dad on the anniversary of his death like we did every year. Besides, Dad can understand that we should put our studies and careers first.”
Alright, Li Muyao couldn’t help but feel heavy when she mentioned paying respects to her father.
The four of them went to the grave mountain with heavy hearts.
After paying their respects, Li Zhuoyue suggested that they take a walk on the mountain road where they often did morning exercises when they were young in order to ease everyone’s heavy mood.
Last year, Li Muyao had brought Huo Jiling along.
“Let’s go. Yang Yang and I want to go for a walk too.”Li Muyu and Li Muyang naturally didn’t come to the mountain with their father for morning exercises as much as Li Zhuoyue and Li Muyao. They didn’t even have much of an impression of them.
Moreover, Li Muyu didn’t want to see his sister in a bad mood.
It was better to reminisce about some beautiful memories.
Sure enough, after walking to the mountain path where they had practiced countless times in the morning, Li Muyao and the other three began to reminisce about more topics. The atmosphere was not as heavy as before, and there were even some laughter from time to time.
As they walked, Li Muyao suddenly stopped.
“What’s wrong?”
They were still talking and laughing just now. Why did they suddenly stop? Li Muyu and Li Mu looked at their sister in confusion. Then, they turned to look at Li Zhuoyue and realized that his face was as suspicious as their sister’s.
“This road looks more like it than the one we took just now.”There was no road on the mountain, but there were more people walking, so there was a road. This road was indeed rarely visited. As far as Li Muyao and Li Zhuoyue were familiar with this area, other than people who came to pay their respects, no one would walk near this grave mountain.
Moreover, it wasn’t the Qingming Festival now. The place that should have been full of weeds had been trampled on frequently. It was completely different from the one who had just walked in.
Li Zhuoyue was a student of the National Defense University and had assisted the police in actual combat a few times, so he had some investigative skills.
“Yaoyao, don’t move. Let me see.”
Li Zhuoyue asked Li Muyao and the other two siblings to stand still and try not to make any more noise. He then ran forward. One had to know that the front was not the direction where Li Dajian took them for morning exercise when they were young. It was to the left.
Next to the grave mountain was a cellar mountain. It was a cellar that was two to three meters high in the countryside at the edge of the county town. It was used to store sweet potatoes, winter melons, or soybeans to ensure that these grains could survive the winter without spoiling.
As the countryside was slowly taken over by the county city, everyone moved to the houses in the county city and lived a rich life. No one used this cellar anymore, and no one was willing to come up. As time passed, these cellar holes all became natural traps. Most people would not be able to come back up if they did not notice anything.
Therefore, this cellar mountain was also called Death God Mountain.
Li Dajian had brought Li Muyao and Li Zhuoyue here for morning exercise, but they had only gone halfway up the mountain before turning back. He had never brought them up the cellar mountain, and he had reminded them thousands of times not to go up alone or with others. It was too dangerous.
The cellar mountain had another name, also known as the underground mountain.
It was said that there was a tunnel leading from here to Guanyin Mountain on the other side.
Of course, this was all hearsay. This was also why Li Zhuoyue went straight to the cellar after discovering the abnormality.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Li Zhuoyue returned with a new set of equipment. He was actually wearing a coarse and inferior grass hat on his head. His face was very solemn. When he ran towards them, there was no sound from his feet.
“Little Yu, Yang Yang, you guys go outside and wait. When my uncle and the others come over, you guys can bring them here directly. Yaoyao, you…Come up the mountain with me. I need your help.
However, you have to turn off your phone or mute it first. Little Yu, Yang Yang, you guys have to do the same. You guys brought my uncle and the others here. Just wait here. It’s best if you go home and wait for news, understand?”
Li Zhuoyue’s expression and words made it clear that he had discovered something extraordinary. Li Muyao knew that Li Zhuoyue had been investigating a case with his uncle recently. She was shocked at first, but then she felt a little excited. She felt that she could finally use the martial arts she had learned from her father for so many years on the right path.
“What? Why don’t we let Mooncake and the young man go down the mountain to pick up Uncle Li and the others? Brother Zhuoyue, I’ll help you. My physical strength and martial arts have also become stronger than before.”Li Muyang knew that he had to let his sister participate in this. Although he didn’t know what Li Zhuoyue wanted to do, he always knew that Li Zhuoyue was working for his uncle.
Li Muyang was worried that his sister and Li Zhuoyue would be in danger if a National Defense University student and auxiliary police officer showed such a serious expression.
