Jiang Wan signed calmly, and soon the woman's body was pushed out covered with a white cloth.

Taozi rushed over crying, his voice was heartbreaking and no one could persuade him.

After Taozi's emotions stabilized for a while, Jiang Wan asked calmly.

"Now do you want to continue crying here, or do you want to send your mother back to be buried?"

"If you want to cry, just keep crying here. We are going to leave and do our business."

"If you want to send your mother back, we can help you. It depends on whether you need it."

Jiang Wan placed his hands lightly on Taozi's shoulders and asked gently but firmly.

Taozi kept sniffing and his shoulders were shaking.

"Uncle, aunt, please help me send my mother back."

"It's tragic enough that my mom died, I don't want her to stay in the hospital."

"My mother's greatest wish before she died was to be buried next to my father after she died."

Taozi started crying again when he said this. He was so sad that he couldn't even speak clearly.

Cheng Jinnian silently placed the woman's body on the cart.

On the way back, Cheng Jinnian pulled the cart, and Jiang Wan hugged Taozi who was crying sadly.

He kept sobbing, and Jiang Wan felt a little sorry for him.

She patted his back gently and walked him to his doorstep.

"Taozi, are there any adults at home?"

Jiang Wanming knew there was no answer but still asked.

Taozi cried and shook his head and said heartbrokenly: "No."

"My father passed away last year, and my mother is the only one left at home."

"Now that my mother is gone, I don't know what to do in the future."

There was no place to put the body at home, so Cheng Jinnian could only keep the woman's body on the cart.

After Taozi was sad, he suddenly remembered: "Brother, brother, I want to go see my brother."

He wiped away his tears and quickly opened the door.

The younger brother who was supposed to be lying in bed was missing.

The quilt on the bed was messy, and it was still warm when I touched it.

"Brother, my brother is missing!"

"Auntie, my brother must have woken up and saw that mom and I were gone, so he ran out to look for us!"

"My brother is very weak and has difficulty walking. Can you accompany me to look for him?"

Taozi really had no choice but to kneel down to Jiang Wan as he spoke.

"Auntie will go with you, but please don't kneel down all the time. If you continue to do that, I won't go."

Taozi quickly stood up straight and nodded repeatedly.

"Cheng Jinnian, Taozi's brother is missing. I'm going out with him to look for him now."

As Jiang Wan was about to leave, Cheng Jinnian immediately caught up with him.

"I'll go with you. One more person means more strength."

Jiang Wan originally wanted to refuse, but when he thought that it was inappropriate for him to be alone with a corpse, he let him go with him.

After leaving the house, Jiang Wan realized that they had no idea what Taozi's younger brother looked like, what his name was, or where he liked to go.

"Taozi, calm down and think about it carefully. Tell me what your brother looks like? How old is he?"

"And most importantly, where does he like to go when he goes out?"

Taozi ran around like a headless fly at first, but gradually calmed down after her reminder.

He stood there without moving, and after a while he remembered.

"I know where my brother will go."

Taozi led the way in front, while Cheng Jinnian and Jiang Wan followed behind.

Taozi took them to a small vegetable garden.

"When my mother is well, she will come over to grow vegetables so that the family doesn't have to go shopping for vegetables."

"Sometimes my brother would suddenly wake up and come to the vegetable garden to look for me if he didn't see anyone."

Taozi stood at the edge of the vegetable garden and looked around. He wanted to see if his younger brother was there this time.

Jiang Wan and Cheng Jinnian also started looking, but apart from a few people working, they didn't see anyone else.

"Let's go ask someone."

Jiang Wan felt that he couldn't just keep searching blindly like this. Since there were people here, if the child had been here before, others would definitely know about it.

"do not go."

Jiang Wan had just taken two steps when Taozi immediately grabbed his arm.

"They look down on us brothers, and by extension our mother. If we ask them, they won't tell us."

"It's okay, I can ask."

Jiang Wan smiled slightly, appearing very confident.

Taozi stood there somewhat awkwardly, and Jiang Wan asked Cheng Jinnian to go over and communicate.

At first they were really reluctant to tell them about the child.

After Cheng Jinnian said a few words, they pointed out the direction.

"The kid went that way."

"Okay, thank you two beautiful aunts."

Cheng Jinnian was handsome and good at talking, and he really made them fall in love with him.

Especially the last sentence, which made them look at each other happily.

"This handsome boy praised me as a beautiful auntie. Am I really beautiful?"

"You praised me too. Am I pretty too?"

The two were so dizzy with praise that they felt a little lost.

"The child went over there. I heard he just left a while ago."

"That's the creek. Mom sometimes goes there to catch fish. My brother must have gone there to look for him."

Taozi's eyes lit up and he immediately knew where his brother had gone.

He immediately ran in order to find his brother quickly.

Jiang Wan and Cheng Jinnian also ran and followed him.

Before they got close to the creek, they heard the child's shrill screams.

"Help! Help! I can't swim, I can't swim! Please save me! Please save me!"

There were several children standing on the shore, all of them had bruises on their bodies, but the smiles on their faces were very hideous.

"Let your brother go against us! Your brother has someone to protect him, but you don't!"

"You little bastard, now that you've fallen into our hands, today is the day you'll die!"

"Why are you screaming? This place is so remote, no one will save you even if you scream your throat out!"

"Just die here obediently. It will be too late when your brother finds out!"

The children laughed wildly, and when the little boy tried to stick his head out of the river, they stepped on him viciously.

Taozi looked at the scene with bloodshot eyes.

He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and rushed over quickly.

"You bunch of beasts, who told you to bully my brother?"

"If you dare to touch my brother, you will all die!"

Taozi grabbed the two boys by the back of their collars like a madman and pulled them hard, eventually forcing the child to lie on the ground.

Jiang Wan ran up quickly. She imitated Cheng Jinnian and grabbed the two children by the back of their collars, then grabbed their heads and hit them hard.

The two children's heads hit each other with a loud bang, and then they fell to the ground in a daze.
