Living in the compound with the army: A beautiful lady came to the chief's house

Chapter 393 Accident or man-made?

"That's what I mean. But I think it's better to investigate it thoroughly."

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you."

"Ok!"

The couple discussed it and washed the dishes.

At this time, the brother and sister were reminiscing about the past in the yard. Chen Chunhua told her brother about her experiences over the years.

Chen Cheng knew what happened to his sister and felt guilty and sad. Since their parents passed away, the two siblings lived with their uncle's family.

In order to give his sister a better life and to have enough food to eat, he joined the army without hesitation. He thought that by doing so, he could protect his sister and let her live a good life.

But who would have thought that he didn't even know his sister was kidnapped by a kidnapper.

Thinking about the money he had sent back in the past few years, and the fact that his uncle's letter never told him that his sister had been kidnapped, Chen Cheng felt a surge of anger in his heart, wanting to destroy everything.

"Chunhua, follow your brother from now on. Whenever your brother has a bite to eat, you will have one too. We will never go back to that home again."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, brother. But, brother, can I join the army with your current rank?"

"Don't worry, brother has made great contributions this time, so he should be able to be promoted. Then, you can join the army. Before that, you can stay in a guest house first, or I can help you find a house nearby."

"Okay, then I'll listen to my brother."

Seeing his sister's obedient appearance, Chen Cheng's heart softened. He was even more grateful to Yun Bei for bringing his sister to him.

Otherwise, he would not know that his sister was in trouble and would still foolishly send so much money back home every month.

Seeing that it was getting late, Si Nanzhao interrupted the brother and sister who were still reminiscing about the past and said, "Chen Cheng, it's time to go back to the army. Let your sister-in-law make arrangements for your sister later."

Chen Cheng stopped talking after hearing this, looked at Yunbei and said, "Sister-in-law, thank you for your help. I just told her to stay in the guesthouse for the time being. When I have time, I will rent a house for her outside."

"Okay, I'll take her to the guesthouse later." Yunbei agreed.

In fact, she could live in the house, but Yunbei didn't like having outsiders at home. In addition, she had her own secrets, and it was inconvenient to have outsiders at home.

Another thing is that this loophole cannot be opened. Otherwise, what if all the family members of Si Nanzhao's subordinates come and live in the house?

Chen Cheng and Si Nanzhao went back to the army, and Yunbei took Chen Chunhua to the army guesthouse to settle down. The guesthouse was not far from the family compound, in fact, it was also inside the family compound, just in two directions.

Therefore, it took almost ten minutes to reach the destination.

After Yunbei settled Chen Chunhua down, she returned to her home. As for teaching Chen Chunhua to identify herbs, there was no rush. She was tired after all the searching, so she decided to take a rest first.

As for Chen Cheng, as soon as he returned to the army, Mao Dazhu and Zhao Jun pulled him aside and asked, "Chen Cheng, tell me the truth, what did the regiment commander ask you to do?"

Faced with his brother's questioning, Chen Cheng did not hide it and told him that his sister had come to see him.

"No way?" The two of them couldn't believe it and asked, "Your home is so far away from here, how did she find you?"

"It's a long story." Chen Cheng briefly explained how his sister was trafficked from her hometown to this place, and the two of them felt heartbroken after hearing it.

"Damn you, kidnapper! You've done so much harm to our sister."

"I don't know if the kidnappers have been caught. We must not let them go."

"I will ask the captain to help investigate the kidnapper's case. Anyway, I will definitely not let it go if someone harms my sister. It doesn't matter if the person is a kidnapper or someone else."

Chen Cheng said this because he suspected that his sister was sold to a kidnapper by his uncle and aunt. Because, this kind of thing had happened in their place before, selling a girl to a kidnapper was more profitable than marrying her off directly.

Let me put it this way, if you get married you can only earn a hundred or eighty yuan as a dowry, but if you sell her to a kidnapper you can at least make five or ten times as much.

Therefore, on the way back to the army just now, he asked the regiment commander to help investigate the matter.

If he was sure that his sister was sold by his uncle and aunt, he would not let it go like this.

Without mentioning how much money he sent back home every year, just saying that his sister didn't eat for free at home. Not to mention the endless work she had to do every day, she still had to eat the leftovers from her uncle and aunt's family.

On days like this, let alone being full, it’s a good thing not to be hungry.

"Brother, if you need any help, just ask."

"Yes, as long as we can help, just tell us."

Mao Dazhu and Zhao Jun patted Chen Cheng on the shoulders and comforted him. If it were them, they would also feel bad if their sister who depended on each other for life had such a thing happen.

Chen Chunhua took a nap in the guesthouse and woke up at around five in the afternoon. She wanted to go find Yunbei, but when she saw the time, she had to give up the idea. She stayed in the room, quietly waiting for her brother to come.

At noon, her brother told her that food would be delivered in the evening and asked her to just wait in the guesthouse.

After waiting for about half an hour, I heard a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"It's me, your brother." Chen Cheng stood outside the door with a lunch box, waiting for his sister to open the door for him.

Soon, the door opened, Chen Chunhua stuck his head out, saw his brother's happy face, and said, "Brother, you are here, come in."

Chen Cheng took the lunch box and walked into the room with a smile.

"Chunhua, I brought you some food. Are you hungry?"

Chen Chunhua saw that there was only one meal, so he couldn't help but ask, "Brother, have you eaten? How about eating together?"

"No, I've already eaten. Eat quickly, don't starve yourself."

After hearing what his brother said, Chen Chunhua didn't hesitate and buried his head in eating.

After dinner, Chen Chunhua was about to wash the lunch box, but Chen Cheng snatched it away and said, "Chunhua, take a rest, I'll wash it."

Chen Chunhua couldn't get it from her brother, so she had to let her brother wash the lunch box.

After washing the lunch box, Chen Cheng did not rush to leave, but sat down to talk with his sister. The lunch time was too short, and there were many things he had not asked yet.

For example, the details of her being abducted in the town were very important to him. He wanted to judge from them whether this was an accident or a human error.

However, his intuition told him that it was more likely to be man-made, because he knew his uncle and aunt and knew what kind of people they were.

He heard from his sister that she was kidnapped when she went to the town to exchange eggs. But according to his understanding of his uncle and aunt, they were very careful about precious items like eggs, and no one else could touch them except the couple.

But why were they so kind as to let her deliver the eggs to the supply and marketing cooperative on the day my sister was abducted?
