Volume 1: Reborn in the 1980s, selling lunch boxes with my mother Chapter 158 Heartbeat
The suspect slipped and fell into a pit of feces and drowned before he could be brought to justice. There was no need to investigate this case any further.
Whether it was the evidence left at the scene, the testimonies of Hu Qiongfang, her mother and her two daughters, or the evidence that the police had salvaged from the pit and had not yet destroyed, all of them proved that this fire disguised as an accident was indeed a planned murder!
With the death of Jiang Lesheng, Jiang Cheng is the only one left in the Jiang family.
Jiang Tian doesn't count. She has been adopted by Hu Qiongfang to the He family, and now even her household registration has been moved to the He family.
Jiang Tian felt indescribably refreshed when she thought that everything that was taken away by Jiang Lesheng in her previous life had now returned to her younger brother Jiang Cheng!
The fifth day of the first lunar month in 1986 was truly the happiest day for Jiang Tian since her rebirth.
However, the person who should be thanked the most for the three of them being able to escape so smoothly is of course Han Jisong.
The villagers who came to put out the fire had already given up. If Han Jisong had not risked his life and rushed into the sea of fire to rescue the mother and daughter, it would be hard to say whether the mother and daughter could have escaped the disaster by hiding in the water tank when the roof beams fell down.
Hu Qiongfang was so grateful that she was speechless. She could only hold Han Jisong's hand tightly and not let him leave.
After surviving the disaster, Jiang Tian looked at Han Jisong with gratitude.
Han Jisong's face, which was blackened by the thick smoke, showed a blush that no one else could see.
When their eyes met, the two young hearts couldn't help but beat fast.
The book is finished ...
(Editor’s note: What sweet dreams are you having?)
My daughter went back to her husband's house and was nearly burned to death in her own home! Upon hearing the news, Grandpa Hu's family ignored the old rule of "staying at home on the fifth day of the lunar year" and all rushed over.
I heard that it was the son-in-law's younger brother who wanted to set fire to the three of them, but instead of harming anyone, he killed himself. The aunt was very happy, but she also felt that Jiang Lesheng got away with it. This beast, even after his death, could not be buried in the Jiang family's ancestral tomb.
Just burn it into ashes and scatter it in the manure pit!
Grandpa Hu didn't say anything. His eyes swept over his daughter, grandson and granddaughter in turn. When he saw Jiang Cheng's hands wrapped like two dumplings in gauze, his face instantly became gloomy.
Jiang Lesheng had done such a cruel thing. The Jiang family of Liuzhutou Village could no longer get away with it as they did last time.
Grandpa Hu personally took his two sons to find the great grandfather who was the manager of the Jiang family.
The old man still wanted to smooth things over, saying things like "It is difficult for a judge to settle family disputes" and "Although Lesheng made a mistake, he is already dead, so how can we hold him accountable?"
Grandpa Hu laughed on the spot.
"How to investigate?"
"Shouldn't such a beast, who is worse than an animal, be removed from the Jiang family tree?"
"Besides, he almost killed my daughter and her two children. Can we just write it off just because he's gone?"
Hu Qiongfang stood behind her parents, head down, not saying a word.
Although she didn't know why her parents were so determined to get her great-grandfather to kick Jiang Lesheng out of the Jiang family tree, she knew that her parents would not harm her.
So she decided to listen to her parents.
Jiang Tian rolled her eyes.
She did vaguely guess what her grandparents wanted to do, but this matter would be good for the three of them, so why refuse?
Sure enough! After the great grandfather pinched his nose and admitted that Jiang Lesheng was no longer worthy of staying in the Jiang family tree, Grandpa Hu immediately confirmed another thing -
Since Jiang Lesheng has been kicked out of the Jiang family tree, when Jiang Cheng grows up and has children, the clan cannot jump out and say that Jiang Lesheng's lineage has no children and that they want to adopt one of Jiang Cheng's children to "inherit the incense" from Jiang Lesheng.
To adopt one's own child to one's enemy? The Jiang family could do this, but the Hu family couldn't!
Besides, Jiang Lesheng almost killed Hu Qiongfang and her two daughters, and Jiang Cheng's hands were pierced by glass shards and were bleeding. This matter cannot be let go like this.
Jiang Lesheng deserved to die, but didn't he still have the money he got when the family was divided? There was also the Jiang family's homestead and the land that was originally allocated to Jiang Lesheng, which must be compensated to Hu Qiongfang.
The great grandfather really wanted to scold Grandpa Hu and tell him that this was their Jiang family’s family affair and had nothing to do with your Hu family.
It's a pity that he can't.
Hu Qiongfang and her two daughters were almost burned to death by that little beast Jiang Lesheng. They were already the victims.
The great grandfather believed that if he dared not agree, the Hu family would definitely change Jiang Cheng's surname without saying a word and make him a child of their Hu family.
By then, Hu Cheng, bah! Jiang Cheng's grandfather's lineage will really be extinct.
This old guy and his wife are not good people. I don’t know how many tricks they have!
Originally, my great grandfather really wanted to delay this matter.
Jiang Lesheng left behind a lot of things. In addition to the house and land, he should have also left a lot of savings.
The great grandfather originally wanted to use the excuse of giving Jiang Lesheng an adopted child to carry on the family line. However, as to whose child to adopt and how much to give to the child, he, as the elder, would have to decide.
Moreover, adoption cannot be decided in a short time. Before that, the money and things left by Jiang Lesheng can only be temporarily handed over to the clan for safekeeping.
The great-grandfather's grandson is dating a girl in town. The girl's family has high standards and is short of money. If he had the money left by Jiang Lesheng, his grandson's marriage would be a grand occasion.
He had no intention of pocketing the money, he just wanted to borrow it for a while, and wait until he married his grandson's wife. Then his family would slowly save money and quietly return the money.
Who would have thought that before he even made a move, the old dog Hu Fengnian actually got ahead of him and went to ask for compensation from a dead person?
Bah! How could he open his mouth like that!
It’s a pity that my great grandfather underestimated how thick-skinned Grandpa Hu was.
Not only did he have the nerve to ask for compensation, he also demanded that the Jiang family pay it immediately.
You want to delay it, right? Then let's just wait and see.
Anyway, as long as the Jiang family doesn’t hand over the compensation to Hu Qiongfang, Jiang Lesheng will never be cremated!
It won't be him who will be embarrassed anyway, so there's nothing for him to be afraid of.
The great grandfather was so angry that he almost passed out.
The old man couldn't win the argument, so he turned his attention to Hu Qiongfang.
"Mrs. Leping, please try to persuade your father. Even if Lesheng did something wrong, you can't delay cremating him, right?"
Hu Qiongfang couldn't help but touch her face.
Does she look particularly easy to bully?
Why does everyone who sees her want to bully her?
