At Liu Cheng’s house, Liu Cheng’s mother looked at him. “Son, what should we do now?”

Liu Cheng was also a little afraid, but with Liu Shun’s guidance, his mind was still clear. He licked his lips and said, “Mom, there’s no time to waste. Let’s cremate this fool’s corpse first. We have to be quick.”

His mother was a little afraid. “That fool’s eyes are still wide open. Can we really do that?”

Liu Cheng frowned and gritted his teeth. “We have to. Mom, go and prepare the firewood. I’ll go and drag the fool’s corpse out.”

He was uneducated, but he knew that his retarded wife’s body had to be cremated quickly. He understood the principle of destroying the evidence.

He was also afraid, but when he thought of the beautiful Yang Hua, he was not scared of anything.

Liu Cheng walked towards the pigpen. This was a farmer’s tradition. Childbirth shouldn’t be done in the house, or it would bring bad luck to the family.

His wife was a fool to begin with. His mother had spent hundreds of copper coins to buy her. Now that she was dead, she was still of some use. It was worth it.

Liu Cheng thought that he would not be afraid, but when he walked into the pigpen and looked at the woman lying on the hay, his entire body had goosebumps.

The woman gripped a handful of hay tightly with both hands. Her eyes were slightly open, as if she had been extremely unwilling to die.

Liu Cheng went forward and was about to drag the woman out by her hands. However, when he looked down, he saw the woman’s wide open eyes. Liu Cheng took off his clothes to cover the woman’s face before dragging her out.

Liu Cheng’s mother had already piled up a lot of firewood and was putting oil on it.

“That’s their house. Hurry, hurry…”

Mr. Liu raised his hand and knocked on the door. “Liu Cheng, open the door.”

Liu Cheng’s mother was shocked. “Son, they are here. Why are they here so soon?”

According to the plan, the Liu family shouldn’t have reached here so fast. They were supposed to find out about the matter by the next day.

By then, the corpse would have been cremated. At that time, there would be no evidence, and the Liu family would have no choice but to compensate them.

Liu Cheng also panicked. “Mom, I don’t know. Brother Shun didn’t tell me this would happen.”

It was clearly too late for cremation.

They didn’t open the door but Mr. Liu and his family couldn’t wait any longer. They started smashing the door.

Madam Bai, who arrived a bit slower, started knocking on the gong. “Murder, someone is murdered…”

The sound of the gong shook the earth. Liu Cheng’s mother jumped up with fright and looked at Liu Cheng.

Liu Cheng was also at a loss.

The door burst open and Liu Cheng braced himself. “What do you want?”

Liu Dalang’s face darkened. He took two steps forward and picked up Liu Cheng. “Where’s my mother?”

Liu Cheng immediately cowered down and softened his tone. “She’s… sent to the government.”

Liu Dalang was about 1.85 meters tall and strong. The way he raised his fists in anger was really scary. Liu Cheng was frightened.
