The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man
Chapter 1141 - Chapter 1141 1141

Chapter 1141: 1141 Chapter 1141: 1141 “How would I know?” Li Yibao waved her hand away impatiently.

Madam Li glanced around, and with the mountain being pitch-black, she said, “We’re not far from Hanging Neck Mountain, could it be the female ghost from there coming to claim lives?”

With that said, the few people nearby were terrified.

“A while ago, Liu Yuhong and Liang Ping’an were caught committing adultery and locked up in the firewood room.

My husband was in charge of guarding them.

According to what Liang Ping’an and Liu Yuhong said, they really saw a ghost, and it was in broad daylight, truly frightening.”

“Seeing a ghost in broad daylight…

How could that be?” someone questioned.

“The land at Hanging Neck Mountain is gloomy; I guess on that day the sunlight just didn’t reach there, and the ghost appeared…”

“Shh!

Don’t talk about it anymore…

In case it really is a fierce ghost coming for revenge…”

All the onlookers wanting to discuss further scattered like birds and beasts.

Su Qingyue walked out from behind the house with a sneer curling the corners of her lips.

She was the one who killed Qian Duotian, and with her method of murder, even the post-mortem examiner wouldn’t be able to determine the cause of death, at most declaring it a spontaneous death!

Who would have thought Qian Duotian would harbor delusions of raping her and then killing her at this time?

Last time Qian Duotian and his wife came to blackmail her, she felt she had been too merciful.

Now just as she was in a terrible mood, Qian Duotian had the misfortune to run into her.

He brought this on himself.

Su Qingyue knitted her brows.

Although she hadn’t heard the villagers mention, she killed someone after all.

With her intelligence, after pondering, she suspected the deceased might be Zhu Daqi?

As she sneakily hurried home, she overheard some villagers discussing and became certain.

It turned out that Zhu Daqi, the son of Old Lady Zhu who had harassed her, was truly dead.

She had given Ding Er two taels of silver.

Fearing being entangled in a murder case, he then talked about that day.

The county office suspected that she had beaten Zhu Daqi to death that day, and moreover, the silver Ding Er received was considered hush money from her.

By a strange coincidence, she had disappeared, and the third brother had gone missing too.

Consequently, she became the prime suspect.

Who killed Zhu Daqi?

She had no interest in investigating that right now.

Saving her third brother was urgent!

When she reached the fence of her home, she swiftly climbed over into the yard.

In the yard, Xiao Qinghe was sitting in the wheelchair in the courtyard, initially staring at the moon with a worried expression.

Upon seeing her climb over the wall, he exclaimed with joy, “Wife!”

Su Qingyue’s facial expression stiffened at this address, but seeing that her fourth brother, apart from looking haggard, seemed to have recovered from his severe cold and had no major issues, she entered the room without a word.

Xiao Qinghe watched her figure, her drenched appearance as if she had just been fished out of water on such a cold day, puzzlement flashing in his eyes.

Seeing her safe and sound somewhat eased the anxiety he had felt over these last few days.

Looking at the closed courtyard door.

The courtyard door was not bolted.

He saw her agile movements as she climbed over the wall, the way she landed lightly from such a high wall.

Her skill was surprisingly good.

This was truly unexpected to him.

The doubts he had about her deepened in his heart.

Su Qingyue changed out of her wet clothes in her room, found some dry ones to wear, changed her shoes, all in a matter of two to three minutes.

She immediately came out of the room and asked, “Fourth brother, what was second brother’s reaction to me killing Zhu Daqi?”

Xiao Qinghe had intended to tell her what had happened over the past few days, but seeing her asking directly like this, he also replied immediately, “Neither I nor second brother believe that you could kill someone.

We also don’t believe that third brother has fled with you.

Second brother is next door; he asked me to discuss a plan of action with him as soon as you returned.”
