Chapter 531 (1/2)

The boatman looked at Chang Wen and didn't say a word for a long time.

Chang Wen was a little hairy by the boatman and explained, ”uncle, I really don't mean any harm. I'm just curious.”

”Boy, just for this lie I told you, you have been waiting for several days by the Qingjiang River, and you have come here not far away to see me. You are so curious.”

”Don't worry, uncle. I just want an explanation.”

The boatman said quietly, ”I'll explain it to you. At that time, I lied that there was a dangerous beach downstream and I wanted to spend the night in Shijia village. The reason is that I think the woman who committed suicide may have been bullied by her family. I want to find out about it.”

Chang Wen asked, ”uncle, do you want to fight against injustice?”

”Yes, our boat runners are upright. If the road is rough, we should help each other. I think you can understand that. ”

Chang Wen nodded and said, ”I understand. Uncle, you are really a good man. I admire you very much.”

Chang Wen found that there was a trace of lethality in the boatman's eyes, which made him shiver.

He knew that the boat runners were wild, and if they offended them, they would get revenge.

”Boy, who are you from shigu family?”

”Uncle, as I have said, I work for shigu family to repair mechanical equipment.”

”Well! You don't choose anyone to lie to. Do you think you can bluff me by just telling a lie? You put your hand out

Chang Wen quickly explained: ”uncle, I'm just a technician of mechanical equipment maintenance, specially guiding workers to repair equipment. I don't do it often.”

”Put your hand out!”

Chang Wen reaches out his hand helplessly.

The boatman took a look and said, ”boy, what on earth do you do?”

”Uncle, I'm really a mechanic and equipment repair technician, who specializes in guiding workers to repair agricultural equipment. Shigu family is a big grain grower, and I'm here to repair a lot of mechanical equipment.”

”Boy, if you go from house to house to repair machinery and equipment for big grain growers, at least you won't be a small white face, because even if you don't do it, you will work in the sun.”

Chang Wen prevaricated: ”uncle, my skin is different from ordinary people. It's a kind of skin that can't be tanned. Even if I bask in the sun every day, I still have a white face.”

The boatman drank the muggy wine and said nothing more.

Chang Wen continued to investigate and asked, ”uncle, you stayed at shigu's house all night. According to your understanding, the woman who committed suicide by jumping into the river was not bullied, was she?”

The boatman raised his head, glared at Chang Wen and asked, ”boy, do you want to plead for the woman who committed suicide by jumping into the river?”

”No, I've heard a lot of rumors since I came to Shijia village, so I'd like to confirm whether our understanding is consistent.”

”What did you find out?”

”According to my investigation, Caixia, who committed suicide by jumping into the river, has not been bullied by the Shi family. Her husband Shi Xiaogu is good to her. It's said that they haven't blushed in the past three years of marriage.”

”Boy, you repair the mechanical equipment for the Shi family. Why do you meddle in this kind of business?”

”To tell you the truth, I like to read detective stories since I was a child. I have developed a bad habit. No matter where I go, no matter what I encounter, I like to get to the bottom.”

”You're not a good habit. You came all the way to ask me why I lied, which made me very unhappy.”

”Uncle, please forgive me. I didn't mean to upset you, but to make it clear.”
