Chapter 391 Lin Meng is dead
Chapter 391 Lin Meng is dead
Xiang Sichen looked around and didn't see anyone except the three of them, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"Lin...Where is Lin Meng?"
The middle-aged woman remained silent.
Xuanxuan pointed to the tombstone behind them and said, "Mom, look, this person is also called 'Lin Meng'."
The woman followed her daughter's finger and almost fell to the ground.
Lin Meng...died more than ten years ago!
She turned her gaze to the middle-aged woman beside her, who immediately burst into tears.
"My poor daughter... You've been gone for so long, and yet there are still people who care about you. Why did you abandon your mother..."
"Wow, wow, wow... My life is so miserable... Oh, God! Can you please open your eyes and have mercy on such a poor person like me?"
Xuanxuan was frightened by the middle-aged woman's behavior. She hid beside her mother, looked at her mother's red eyes, and comforted her: "Mom, I'm still with you."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Sichen, who was already on the verge of collapse, could no longer control himself and burst into tears like the middle-aged woman.
After the two mothers finished crying, they smiled at each other.
Xuanxuan asked doubtfully, "Why are you crying and laughing at the same time?"
Uh... Xiang Sichen was stunned.
"Haha." The middle-aged woman laughed out loud, "You little boy, you have a very powerful mouth."
Xuanxuan tugged at the corner of her mother's clothes and stuck out her tongue playfully.
"Now that you've seen my daughter...it's still early, would you like to stay for lunch?"
"Okay." Xiang Sichen agreed without thinking. Lin Meng was dead... The clue Mei Ling'er gave her was broken again.
No! Could it be that the person speaking in Xuanxuan's head was Lin Meng's spirit after his death? Thinking of what the netizens in the live broadcast room were saying about "reincarnation", Xiang Sichen couldn't help but cast his gaze back to the grave beside him.
"How did your daughter die?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman showed a look of surprise. Although explaining the cause of her daughter's death would be like reopening her own scars, she still told the truth because the other party was her daughter's good friend.
"When he was in high school, Lin Meng dropped out early and went to Yue City to work and earn money."
"In the first few months, she sent money home every month and told me and her father to wait and enjoy the good life. But not long after, I couldn't contact her..." Having said this, the middle-aged woman stopped and looked at a pine tree not far away.
"Did you go to Yue City to look for her?"
"Hmph..." The middle-aged woman sighed, "No, I didn't have the time to care about her at that time..."
I don’t have time to take care of my daughter... What could be more important than finding my missing daughter?
"Mom, if I disappear, you must find me immediately, otherwise I will be scared."
"it is good."
The middle-aged woman choked up and said, "My daughter must have been very scared at that time..."
"Wow, wow, wow... My poor daughter." Xuanxuan's words made her heartbroken again.
Xuanxuan walked over and hugged the middle-aged woman, "Grandma, don't cry." If you continue to cry, mom will cry too.
The middle-aged woman gradually stopped crying and explained sheepishly, "When I saw your daughter was so well behaved, I kept thinking of my daughter, Lin Meng. She was also a very well-behaved child when she was alive..."
Xiang Sichen took the opportunity to continue asking: "Then how did she..." The woman organized her words in her mind, "How..." The words came to her lips, but she couldn't say them.
"She was murdered..." the middle-aged woman sighed. "We only found out she was murdered when the inspector asked us to identify the body."
"Do you know what the inspection told us?" The middle-aged woman looked straight into Xiang Sichen's eyes, "The inspection said that the murderer didn't even recognize my daughter.
He just had an argument with his wife on his way home from work that morning, and when he saw my daughter alone, he had evil intentions...
He also said that my daughter was not a good girl because she went out so late.
Bullshit! My daughter works overtime so late just to make more money. She is not the bad daughter he claims she is.
The daughter plucked a handful of weeds from the roadside and said, "The murderer was sentenced to death. He deserved it. But my daughter will never come back."
"Mom, I won't play outside at night anymore."
Xiang Sichen squatted down and touched his daughter's head. "It's the criminals who should be restrained, not ordinary people going about their normal lives."
Xuanxuan nodded ignorantly. Although she didn't understand what her mother meant, she knew that her mother would not lie to her and it was right to listen to her mother.
The three of them returned to the middle-aged woman's home. Xuanxuan picked a bunch of colorful wild flowers on the way, and Lin Ma (the middle-aged woman) found a plastic bottle filled with water for her to put in.
Xiang Sichen placed the vase on the windowsill outside her bedroom, adding a touch of color to the otherwise dark wall. She stood by the wall, watching her daughter run around in the yard, thinking about Xuanxuan and Lin Meng's connection.
Lin Meng worked in Yuecheng and passed away more than ten years ago, several years before her daughter was born. She could not find any connection between the two.
So why did Lin Meng go after her daughter? It was likely someone in her family was involved with Lin Meng... She had to investigate each one, starting with herself and her husband.
The woman was lost in thought when Mother Lin shouted from the kitchen door, "Dinner is ready!"
After a whole morning of tossing and turning, Xuanxuan was already starving, so when she heard what Lin's mother said, the little girl dropped the small stone in her hand and ran to the kitchen.
Xiang Sichen stared at the figure that passed by, shook his head gently, and a doting smile appeared on his face.
"Run slowly, don't fall!"
In the blink of an eye, Xuanxuan, sweating profusely, ran to the kitchen door.
The little girl looked inside and saw that there was no dining table in the kitchen. The food was placed in a circle on the stove.
She walked over to the stove and saw that Mother Lin had cooked her favorite dish, braised pork and peas. She immediately beamed and exclaimed, "Great! It looks delicious!"
Mother Lin was moving the armchairs from the living room out and stacking them side by side at the kitchen door.
"Eat it while it's hot!"
Seeing Xiang Sichen and her daughter standing motionless in the kitchen, Mother Lin walked in and handed them the bowls of rice, and then gave each of them a pair of chopsticks.
"We don't usually have guests at our house, so just make do. Put the food in your bowl and eat on the chairs by the door."
On weekdays, Xuanxuan always eats at the dining table, but when she comes to Lin Ma's house, she can eat outside with her bowl.
The little girl found it very curious. Seeing that her mother didn't notice her, she quietly slipped to the chicken coop and picked up a few grains of rice and threw them in.
At this moment, a "wow" sound similar to the roar of a wild beast came from the straw hut.
