Chapter 151 Li Cuilan
Miao Xianxing pointed to his lips and motioned Hua Yan to look inside.
Hua Yan turned her head and looked over.
Hey! She and Qiubao didn't turn on the lights today. It was broad daylight and there was no need to turn on the lights.
Could it be that a thief broke in? This thief is quite bold.
When the door opened just now, there was a sound. Although it was not loud, it should have been audible.
Also, she didn't lower her voice when she was talking to Miao Xianxing, so the people inside should have heard it.
Before I could figure it out, the lights turned off automatically and the room became dark.
Hua Yan and Miao Xianxing looked at each other, and both of them had solemn expressions on their faces.
"Jiu'er, you're behind me, I'll go in first."
Although Hua Yan has shown that she is quite capable in fighting, Miao Xianxing still subconsciously wants to protect her.
Hua Yan didn't waste any words and followed Miao forward.
When I got to the main room, I pulled the door and it was open.
After a while, I heard someone inside hurriedly locking the door.
Hua Yan accurately found the light in the outer room, turned it on, and then looked into the dark room.
He took out a high-intensity flashlight from his bag and shone it into the room through the door.
In fact, the glass on the door was reflective and I couldn't see anything clearly.
But the people in the house didn't know and thought they were seen.
Then I heard a loud bang and something fell to the ground.
Hua Yan could have broken into the space, but Qiu Bao was sensible. He sneaked out, opened the door from the inside, and then quietly returned to the space, truly achieving the goal of being unnoticed by anyone.
Hua Yan pulled the door open and reached out to turn on the light.
The scene in the room is in full view.
Li Cuilan was seen huddled in the corner in fear, her body trembling constantly, no longer the arrogance she had during the day.
Hua Yan asked Miao to go to other rooms first, and she was going to start interrogating Li Cuilan.
Miao first glanced at Hua Yan, then said nothing and walked out.
Not to mention a woman, even a strong man can't do anything to Hua Yan.
Besides, Li Cuilan is a woman, so it is not easy for Miao Xianxing to get involved.
"Tell me! What are you doing in my house?
Don't tell me you came here for no reason."
Hua Yan really wanted to know what this woman was trying to do.
He was hostile to her during the day and sneaked into her house at night.
If you say it's okay, no one will believe you.
When Li Cuilan saw that Miao had gone out first and Hua Yan was the only child left, she was not so panicked at that time.
"I just came to visit. Zhang Jiaxi and I are neighbors and we are used to visiting each other."
Li Cuilan said it with such confidence.
"Haha! The door is closed, Zhang Jiaxi has been arrested again, which door are you going through?
Is it popular to climb over the wall when visiting friends now?
If I tell the police about this, what will they think? "
Hua Yan looked at Li Cuilan leisurely, just like a cat playing with a mouse.
"I don't believe you bought this house. I want to look after it for Zhang Jiaxi."
Li Cuilan made three unreasonable excuses.
Hua Yan took out the house deed from the space and handed it to Li Cuilan.
"Look, it's time to give up now."
Li Cuilan saw that the house title deed was in Hua Yan's name and actually wanted to tear it up.
“It’s no use tearing it up, the Real Estate Bureau has registered it, don’t waste your energy.
Do you think that if this house is not mine, it can still belong to Zhang Jiaxi?"
Hua Yan waved her right index finger, meaning it was impossible.
“Even if you don’t tell me about your relationship with Zhang Jiaxi, I can still guess a little.
It's not easy for women, especially for single women raising children.
You've compromised so much that you've finally gotten used to it.
Tell me what you are doing here, maybe I can help you!"
Hua Yan wanted to hear about Zhang Jiaxi's past, perhaps she could uncover the secret of the bronze treasure.
Li Cuilan was stunned. Is this a child? How can he speak like an adult, or even better than an adult?
She can’t be a dwarf. She looks like a child, but she is actually a woman older than her.
"How old are you?"
Li Cuilan asked subconsciously.
"Haha! You think I'm a dwarf and I'm old?"
Hua Yan looked at Li Cuilan's expression and guessed what she was thinking.
“You read that right, I’m a dwarf, and I’m actually fifty years old.
Maybe she's about the same age as your mom, so don't try to lie to me.
I can tell when you're lying.
If you don’t believe it, try it. "
Hua Yan raised her eyebrows, her face full of disdain.
Li Cuilan might have been frightened. She didn't even look at Hua Yan's face and couldn't tell that it was an old lady's face.
"Aunt, I, I, ah! I have a miserable life too!"
Li Cuilan wiped away her tears, but actually there were no tears, it was just a formality, mainly to set off what she was going to say next.
However, Hua Yan was stunned by being called "Auntie".
Hua Yan suppressed the discomfort in her heart and adjusted her tone to a gentle and loving one.
“I know you are a person with a miserable life, and I feel sympathy for you.
I just don’t know how Zhang Jiaxi deceived you.”
Hua Yan began to persuade her patiently.
"Aunt, I am also from a good family, how could I fall in love with someone like Zhang Jiaxi?
It was Zhang Jiaxi who threatened me and asked me to help him deceive the Zheng family’s daughter.
Oh! The daughter of the Zheng family is his wife.
Originally, the Zheng family wanted to find a young man from a poor family with good character, but the daughter of the Zheng family was too ugly, so there was no suitable one.
Zhang's family was lazy and couldn't afford a wife, so they set their sights on the Zheng family's daughter.
He asked me to trick the Zheng family's daughter into my house, and then he did something inappropriate.
He said that he has always liked me, but he has no money and cannot give me a good life.
If he could become a son-in-law of the Zheng family, all the money of the Zheng family would be his in the future.
Once he gets the money, he will live a good life with me.
I said, how long do we have to wait?
He said that it wouldn't be long before he found a way to get the Zheng family's money.
I was so bewildered that I actually believed what he said and became his live-in son-in-law.
Fortunately, he did not forget me. He came to my place every now and then and gave me some money to spend.
I thought, I don’t have much hope in my life now, it would be nice if Zhang Jiaxi could always take care of me and help me raise my son.”
Li Cuilan looked resigned to her fate.
"Then why did the Zheng family leave?"
Hua Yan could see that Li Cuilan didn't know that the three corpses belonged to the Zheng family.
"I heard from Zhang Jiaxi that the Zheng family used to be a wealthy family, and they had a relative who was a general, but later the general died, and the Zheng family didn't benefit from it.
The Zheng family left to look for their relatives. "
Li Cuilan did hear from Zhang Jiaxi that the Zheng family had a relative who was a general.
"Then why didn't Zhang Jiaxi go with them?"
"Zhang Jiaxi was infertile, which the Zheng family found out later, so they left without him, but left this house to him.
He knew that he was infertile, so he said that he would treat my son as his own and take care of him in his old age.
I think this is fine, at least my mother and I can rely on Zhang Jiaxi and we don’t have to work hard for life anymore.”
Li Cuilan had her own wishful thinking.
"Then why didn't he marry you?"
"Alas! I also thought that after the Zheng family left, he would be able to marry me.
But I mentioned it several times, and he always made excuses to shirk it. "
Li Cuilan was somewhat indignant.
"What excuses did he give?"
“At first he said that if he married me right after the Zheng family left, people would suspect that we had a previous relationship.
Later he said that if he married me, my deceased husband's family would come to take advantage of him, and he didn't want to spend the money on them, but only on me and my son.
I said no, and he said it's better to be safe than sorry.
Later, I mentioned it several times, but he didn't agree.
I saw that he had taken money from me and my son, so I didn’t mention it to avoid upsetting him.”
When Li Cuilan said this, her face looked quite satisfied.
"So what are you doing here today?"
Hua Yan finally got to the point.
