The next morning.

"I just want to know what exactly happened yesterday afternoon. Please let me see little sister Qiao."

Qi Mu stood at the entrance of the Ye Family's mansion and slightly raised his head. His pitch-black eyes stared at Zhang Chunji who was taller than her as he spoke with a calm expression.

"Ha! If you want to understand more, go find someone else to understand more. Why are you looking for my girl?" She doesn't know anything! You go find someone else! "

Zhang Chunji placed his hands on his waist in front of the entrance and yelled back at Qi Mu without restraint. His face was filled with obvious impatience.

"Aunt, I'm just asking about some things and I don't want to do anything else. After all, only the little girl, by chance, knows what happened."

Qi Mu patiently explained the reason. As he looked at Zhang Chunji's desperate attempt to protect his daughter, he felt a complex emotion in his heart. He couldn't say it out loud, but he could understand why Zhang Chunji wanted to protect his daughter.

"Pei, don't spout nonsense. My girl just went to wash some clothes yesterday afternoon. What does she know?" If you want to ask, you should ask someone else! "

"There were so many people here yesterday, why are you still holding onto her?" No matter what, she is still your little sister. You killed her out of bad intentions, why would you drag her down with you?!

"Are you trying to ruin my family's little girl's reputation by being unable to see her well? You can't just see us like this, can you?! "

"Leave, quickly leave. If you have nothing else to do, don't come to our house. Hurry up and leave! "

Zhang Chunji once again firmly refused. With a frown, he waved his hands at Qi Mu. Every look in his eyes told her not to bother with others and to quickly leave!

Seeing this, Qi Mu knew it was useless to say anything more. However, a person died in a small village, and after a night of fermentation, every household should be aware of the situation. Even though they were in a remote cattle farm, there was no need for the government to interfere, but the situation … She desperately needed to know what was going on.

She would bear whatever she had to bear, but if it wasn't her fault, she would never admit it!

"Little sister, I know you're inside. I just want to know what happened yesterday. Will you come out and talk to me? "

Qi Mu knew that it was hopeless to let Zhang Chunji allow her to see the little girl, so he shouted towards the house with a hint of hope, hoping that the little girl would come out to meet him for the sake of her old friendship.

"What are you doing? What are you shouting for? Get lost, get lost! Don't get in my way at the door! "

Zhang Chunji seemed to be infuriated by Qi Mu's actions. She picked up the broom outside the house and started to chase after him, not even sparing him face.

Qi Mu called out again. Seeing that there was still no movement in the room, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She took one last look at the closed door of the Ye family mansion and helplessly smiled.

Anyway, to the little girl, this matter was not directly related, so it was understandable that she did not want to get involved.

In the Ye residence.

Qi Mu's slightly quiet and hoarse voice entered the little girl's ears. She quietly sat on the bed. Her posture was extremely orderly, but her head was buried in her neck.

As the little girl listened to the conversation between her mother and her elder sister, she fidgeted with the handkerchief in her hands, staring at the dusty ground with a nervous expression.

Only when Qi Mu's voice faded away did the little girl raise her head to look at the door. With a cowardly gaze, she muttered:

"Big sister, I'm sorry. This is my mother's first time managing me, you know that. My mother rarely does anything to me, so I can't refuse …" "I know you're not wrong. I can see clearly that it was the grassroots that pulled you, that's why you kicked him. They won't blame you …"

On the way back to her home, Qi Mu kept walking. On the way, she thought that it was rare for her to regret doing anything. This time, even she was a little angry with herself.

She clearly knew what she should have asked yesterday afternoon, but she was exhausted. She didn't ask and was able to escape for a while. She couldn't escape for a lifetime. This directly led to the worse consequences of her actions today.

I can't drag this on any longer, there's no more time …

"Yang Yang, yesterday, after elder sister went to the latrine, did you look for elder sister Qiao?"

Qi Mu was sitting alone under the big tree in front of the house with Yang Yang in her arms. She seemed to be unintentionally asking this question, but her ears were listening attentively.

Originally, she didn't want to ask Yang Yang about this. He was still young, so some things might not be well expressed. Thus, she was the first one to go find this lass.

"Yes, Sister suddenly disappeared, Sister and I were very scared, so we went to find Sister Heaven. Sister Heaven said that she went to the latrine, and she'll be back soon, so Sister Yi and I have to wait for a while."

"Then why are you on that boat? "Who brought you there?"

Yang Yang's round, watery eyes looked timidly at Qi Mu as he answered in a small voice:

"Big brother grassroots came to find me. He said he found a big boat and wanted to take me to play."

Big brother grassroots, the guy who drowned yesterday.

"He came looking for you, so you went with him?"

Qi Mu asked indifferently. His tone was very calm, and no one knew whether he was happy or angry.

"No!"

Yang Yang's mood suddenly became agitated. He jumped out of Qi Mu's embrace and stood in front of Qi Mu. His gaze was coincidentally equal to Qi Mu's, and his large watery eyes were pure and clean.

"I don't want to play with him. I wanted to wait for big sister to come back, but coincidentally, big sister kept on telling me to go play with big brother grassroots, so I went."

"Why would Little Sister let you play with him?"

Yang Yang tilted his head as he thought for a while. In the end, he slightly shook his head and said:

"I don't know. She just wants me to play with Big Bro Grass Root."

Noticing that he couldn't ask, Qi Mu smiled gently and held Yang Yang, whose tears were already rolling in his eyes. He patted his back and comforted him. In a gentle voice, he said,

"It doesn't matter if you don't know."

How could he understand an adult's thoughts at such a young age?

"Then tell me, what else did Coincidentally elder sister say?"

"Coincidentally, big sister said: it's good to go and play, and if you don't go then it won't be good. Coincidentally, big sister also said: no one plays with me in the village usually, and I won't play with him. That big brother with the grass roots is so pitiful …"

Qi Mu touched Yang Yang's head and it felt soft and smooth. Unfortunately, her hair was a little yellow due to malnutrition. Her heart ached slightly, but she had no choice but to ask again:

"Then what did you and Grass Root go for?" How did you get on that boat? "

"He was playing with mud on the side, but big brother grassroots insisted on dragging me to look at the boat he found. If I didn't go, big brother grassroots and big sister Qiao won't be happy, so I'll go."

Big Brother Grass Root asked me to board the boat and said that he would take me to row the boat, but the boat was flooded and I didn't fill it with water. Big Brother Grass Root didn't believe me and said that I was bad.

"Then he jumped into the river, and I cried …"

Hearing this, Qi Mu roughly understood what was going on. The little girl also probably had good intentions, wanting Yang Yang to play with the other children. However, she didn't expect such a thing to happen.

He had found an abandoned boat, but he didn't know that the boat would leak water. No one would joke about their own life, so this was the first time he sat on it … However, the boat had leaked water, yet the grass had jumped into the river on its own? This was clearly because he knew how to swim. There was no need to be afraid, but what about her little brother?

However, the dead root was a grass that could swim.

The deceased were the ones who were responsible for the deaths, and it was impossible to calculate who was responsible for the deaths. The deceased were the ones who were responsible for the deaths, so it was impossible to calculate who was responsible for the deaths.

The only thing he felt fortunate about was that this statement might have been very cruel to his wife. However, Qi Mu felt incomparably lucky that her brother was still alive and kicking …
