Three points are destined, seven points depend on face

If buried at home, the scope is much smaller.

Xia Chuntao looked at the thorn roses blooming beside the wall. They were growing so well, so there was enough fertilizer, right?

"Chief, please report to the official!"

The head of the village nodded. He had killed someone, so he must report it to the official.

An hour later, the headman Li Ying led several strong government servants to dig out the rose flowers. The courtyard wall was surrounded by curious villagers.

The chief asked quietly: "Chuntao, are you sure that Gazi Niang's body is under here?"

"Eighty percent possible."

The manager refused to give up and asked again: "How are you sure?"

"Guess."

I'm speechless. Can I rely on guessing? "What if it's not there?"

"Anyway, his family is just that big. If it's not here, it's over there!" Xia Chuntao replied very bachelorly.

Li Chang: ...I feel so tired!

"We've found it! We've found it!" a government official shouted.

After a moment, a human skeleton was clearly revealed!

causing the onlookers to exclaim.

"My mother, there are really bones!"

"How did Xia Chuntao know that there were bones hidden here?"

"Ms. Xia is not an ordinary person. Don't you remember what happened to Wang Gui last time? She said there might be bandits hiding there. Didn't she really find a group of bandits?"

"Yes, yes, there is also the matter of road construction. Just after she said that rocks might fall on the mountain and hit people, a stone actually hit a passerby."

"Then this time..." Everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison.

When people who don't know about it ask, everyone looks like they are profound and cannot say anything.

Li Ying found a widower to conduct an on-site autopsy. It was confirmed by the police that she was a woman who died about three and a half years ago. Her body had multiple fractures. The cause of death was that she was stabbed into the chest with a sharp object. The left hand of the corpse was curled up, and a handkerchief was visible inside.

Xia Chuntao was far away. To be honest, she was scared when she saw the corpse! But when she saw the handkerchief, she walked over.

A blue goldfish!

It's a little faded, but it's the strongest evidence.

At this moment, all the unbearable past will be laid out in the sun.

According to the villagers, Ga Ziniang is considered to be quite good-looking among the wives in Daxi Village. Chow Tai Fook is very strict with her. Whenever she goes out, she must not say a word to her foreign husband, nor can she laugh. As long as he is discovered, he will be beaten when he returns home.

Gazi Niang was the kind of weak and timid woman who dared not speak out about being beaten. In fact, who in the village didn't know about it privately?

Speaking of which, fights between couples are common in the village. Most of the time you kick me and I hit you. But there are actually very few people like Chow Tai Fook who beat their wives to death.

At the beginning, there were people who wanted to help her, such as Li Shugen's wife. Every time at this time, Gazi Niang remained silent and even helped Chow Tai Fook speak.

Because of this, no one in the village said anything about Chow Tai Fook's beating of Gazi Niang. At most, it was just a casual chat after dinner.

This further fueled Chow Tai Fook's arrogance, which eventually led him to become a murderer, the kind of murderer who doesn't feel it's wrong to kill anyone.

As for whether Gazi Niang is really in love with her, who knows? Anyway, they have never seen it. Besides, there's no point in bringing it up now that everyone is gone.

Chow Tai Fook's murder of his wife caused a great sensation not only in Daxi Village, but also in several surrounding villages.

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. How normal.

Daxi Village once again became famous, but Zhang Lichang was very angry!

Xia Chuntao did not let Gazi see her mother's body, but during the Yamen trial, as a witness, Zhou Gazi still went to court, testifying calmly and listening to the trial calmly throughout.

Xia Chuntao felt that something was wrong with him, and he felt numb.

The case was concluded and reported to the court. After a joint trial by the three divisions, Chow Tai Fook was taken to Rongcheng and executed.

"Gazi, what are your plans for the future?" Xia Chuntao decided that she still had to talk to Gazi.

Zhou Gazi lowered his head, rubbed the corners of his clothes, and said nothing.

Xia Chuntao could imagine how much contempt and discrimination a murderer's son would receive. What's more, he is still an orphan, can he grow up alive? Will it grow crookedly?

Xia Chuntao wanted to help this child.

"In this world, there are good parents and bad parents." Xia Chuntao lifted Zhou Gazi's drooped head, "We can't choose our parents, but we can choose our own life."

"Gazi, I will give you a choice now," Xia Chuntao continued, "Be my Xia Chuntao's son and change your surname to Chen. Are you willing?"

Zhou Gazi looked at Xia Chuntao in disbelief for a long time.

"I do!" Zhou Gazi's tears burst out instantly and fell silently into the soil.

He thought that he could only live like mud in this life. He may even live like his father and become a murderer in the future.

He never thought that he would have the opportunity to choose his life again.

Xia Chuntao gently held Gazi into her arms and patted his back slowly, "Cry out. After crying, we will start a new life!"

The long-term depression has overwhelmed this seven-year-old child. Now, he is finally able to cry loudly and vent all his grievances and helplessness.

Xia Chuntao slowly patted this guy on the back and asked him to have a good cry.

This is right!

Is it interesting for a child to look like a little old man?

Alai and Niuniu were very happy when they learned that Gazi was going to join their little family.

Alai: That’s great. Mom doesn’t have to rub my back anymore!

Niuniu: Great, I have two brothers to play with me!

When the villagers learned that Xia Chuntao was going to adopt Gazi, they had various reactions.

Praise: Chuntao is such a good person! If it weren't for her, Zhou Gazi would be doomed.

Ironically: If she hadn't sued his father, he wouldn't be an orphan now. She just pretends to be a good person, I want to see how long she can keep pretending!

The naysayer: Zhou Gazi is the son of a murderer, isn't Xia Chuntao afraid?

……

Xia Chuntao doesn't care what others think, and it doesn't affect her eating and drinking. But I still need to give Gazi some reassurance.

"Let's change our household registration today!"

Xia Chuntao took three children directly to the county seat. Alai and Niu Niu have been there several times. It was the first time for Ga Zi to make a bullock cart and the first time to enter the county town. They were extremely curious.

Along the way, the three little guys asked questions and answered questions, which was very lively.

As a result, Lao Zhengtou and his cattle were once again devastated by the noise.

Because Xia Chuntao's situation was quite special, the county magistrate led a few people to directly seek an audience with the county magistrate Wang Zhihe.

Xia Chuntao: Every time I see Mr. Wang’s cross-shaped eyebrows and mouse eyes, I think of my idiot brother and, of course, his arrogant brother-in-law.

County Grandpa: Every time I see the way you look at me, I think of my mother.

"Master, you also know the situation of this child. He is a poor baby." Xia Chuntao paused, "The woman adopted him and hopes that he will be listed as his heir in the household registration."

An heir is an adoptive nephew who is related by direct blood. Logically speaking, Xia Chuntao could not adopt Zhou Gazi as his heir.

But Chen Xiucai's family has no genealogy, so his brother's family should die or be separated. It can be said that Xia Chuntao is now the leader of the Chen family.

The reason why Xia Chuntao did this was mainly to plan the child's future. If he wants to take the imperial examination in the future, his father who once was a murderer will be his biggest obstacle.

The county magistrate has also taken this into consideration. Generally speaking, this matter requires the consent of the clan. Since the family is a single owner, it is much easier.

Give your children a chance! Just think of it as a way to accumulate virtue for yourself.

The county magistrate admired Xia Chuntao's righteous deeds. He lowered his head and said to Gazi, "You have found a good mother. Cherish her!"

Gazi nodded seriously.

He will cherish it very much...

From this day on, Xia Chuntao had a seven-year-old son named Chen Jian.
