The Reborn Girl Wants to Kill Me
Chapter 18 I Have a "Good Wife" 1
Ji Yanli smiled and said, "Just sign it. Why are you so loud? You scared me."
"Sign it, then go out and make lunch. Mom and Mingyan are busy, so you can't just stay in your room and slack off, right?"
Wang Cuicui cursed in her heart, signed the IOU and went out to cook.
Ji Yanli's eyes were deep. This IOU would be of great use to him.
Wang Cuicui also cooked every day in the Wang family, but she had never cooked since she married into the Ji family. She scrambled around and made some spicy cabbage and threw it on the table. She was too lazy to heat up the steamed buns and just put them hard on the plate, planning to make a quick meal.
She was making do, but Ji Yanli didn't want to. He opened the courtyard door and moved the meal Wang Cuicui had cooked, along with the table, outside. Someone passing by glanced at it and couldn't help but sigh: "Da Zhuang, please heat up the buns. They don't taste good like this."
Ji Yanli smiled and said, "It's okay. This is the first time my wife cooks after we got married. I like it no matter how it's cooked."
The passerby said "oh" and looked at Wang Cuicui meaningfully.
Wang Cuicui blushed immediately. She covered her face with her hands and ran into the house. Ji's mother sighed and went back to cooking. Ji Mingyan squinted her eyes and looked at her brother.
"Brother, there's something wrong with you."
Before the marriage, his brother would smile whenever he mentioned Wang Cuicui. But after just a short time of marriage, he was indifferent when Wang Cuicui cried.
"Brother, you are not the heartless man that others talk about, are you?"
Ji Yanli patted her head, and Ji Mingyan dodged with a smile. She thought for a moment and whispered, "Brother, Wang Wenxing came over a few times when you were not at home. He, he looked at me strangely."
She couldn't describe what that look was, but it made her feel very uncomfortable. She talked about it with Wang Cuicui, and Wang Cuicui said she was overthinking it. She also asked if Wang Wenxing looked down on her family and didn't want them to come over. Ji Mingyan never mentioned it again, but when Wang Wenxing came again, she stayed in her room and didn't go out.
Ji Yanli's expression turned cold. He thought that Wang Wenxing would only take action against Ji Mingyan a few years later because he was too lazy to find a wife. He didn't expect that he would start to target Ji Mingyan now.
Ji Mingyan was in high school in the city and would be back on Saturdays and Sundays. Ji Yanli thought for a moment and said, "Mingyan, you're in your third year of high school and your studies are very busy. Don't come back on Saturdays and Sundays for now. I'll take you with me every time I come back."
Ji Mingyan had no objection to this. It was indeed more convenient to go to her brother's place during the holidays.
After Ji's mother prepared the meal, she first gave a portion to Wang Cuicui, and then the family of three gathered around the table to eat. Ji's mother wanted to mediate, but Ji Yanli always had his own ideas, so the couple had to work it out on their own.
After dinner, Ji Yanli took the initiative to wash the dishes, then leaned back in a chair to rest. He was thinking about the original world line in his mind. In the original world, the original body had an unpleasant quarrel with Wang Cuicui this time. He stayed for one night and then returned to the city. A few days later, he heard that a girl in the village fell into the water. On the day the girl fell into the water, Wang Wenxing had hurriedly looked for the original owner, with half of his clothes wet.
Ji Yanli doesn't believe this is a coincidence.
It didn't matter what, so he wasn't in a hurry to go back these few days. However, he didn't sleep in the same room with Wang Cuicui. Instead, he packed up his bedding and moved into the small room in the south. This room was a storage room. Although it was a little small, the location was not bad. At least it was well ventilated and not damp.
Seeing Ji Yanli like this, Wang Cuicui threw things around in her room with a sour face every day. The rumors about her had spread throughout the village, especially the stories about Cui'er and Zhuzi that Auntie Li Hongmei had made up herself. Every adult in the village could tell a story.
It was difficult for Zhang Dazhu to get married in the first place, and after this incident, girls from good families stayed away from him. The widows in the east of the village also avoided him, which made Zhang Dazhu very angry.
"Mom, Ji Dazhuang is going too far. And that Wang Cuicui, I suspect they are working together to set us up!"
Zhang Dazhui rarely used his brain. He thought about it over and over again, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
Aunt Zhang asked: "Then why did they team up to set us up?"
What do orphans and widows want?
Zhang Dazhu obviously hadn't thought about this question. He waved his hand impatiently: "Anyway, you should be careful about Wang Cuicui in the future. I don't think she is a good person."
Did Aunt Zhang really like Wang Cuicui? No, she was only willing to support her because Wang Cuicui was stupid and easy to fool.
Who wouldn't be jealous of the Ji family's wealth? But Ji Dazhuang is smart. He refused all the people from the same village who wanted to work in his store. If they wanted to get benefits from him, they might as well start with Wang Cuicui.
Aunt Zhang still didn't want to give up. "I'll wait until Ji Dazhuang returns to the city and then try looking for Wang Cuicui."
After waiting for a long time, before Ji Dazhuang returned to the city, something happened to the Wang family.
Wang Wenxing drowned.
Ever since Wang Cuicui married into the Ji family, the Wang family started building houses in full swing. Wang Wenxing also looked very prosperous, chatting about cats and dogs every day and acting like a great guy.
His mother was also picky about the unmarried girls in the village, thinking that none of them were worthy of her son. A few days ago, it was heard that Wang Wenxing threatened to find a girl from the city, but he ended up drowning.
The shallow river at the entrance of the village, which was just knee-deep, was where children usually went to play during the day. Yet, Wang Wenxing, such a grown man, was drowned in it.
Wang Cuicui ran back to her parents' home crying, and Ji Yanli followed her. He saw the Wang family crying while holding Wang Wenxing's body, and his eyes were cold.
In the crowd, a girl with a ponytail watched this scene. The hatred and pleasure in her heart made her clench her fists until her fingertips turned white.
She secretly glanced at Ji Yanli who was beside the Wang family, lowered her eyes, and hid the gratitude in her eyes.
If he hadn't arrived in time, if he hadn't...
Wang Wenxing is a beast!
Of course, Wang Wenxing was not killed by Ji Yanli. He did fall into the water. Ji Yanli saved the girl and just turned around, Wang Wenxing stood up and cursed and wanted to hit him. The drunk man walked unsteadily, and he slipped and fell into the river.
The river was shallow, and Ji Yanli could pull him out with a little help, but why did Ji Yanli pull him? In the original world, the ponytail girl was indeed killed by him, so it was just right for him to pay with his life now.
"My son! How will I live if you leave me?"
Mother Wang was crying and wailing, while Father Wang was smoking a pipe with wrinkles on his face.
"Mom and Dad, how could Wenxing fall into the river for no reason? Was he killed by someone?"
Wang Cuicui looked up at Ji Yanli and said, "Da Zhuang, you often meet many people in the city and have a wide range of knowledge. What do you think we should do?"
Ji Yanli said calmly: "Since you think Wang Wenxing was murdered, then just call the police."
Call the police!
Wang Cuicui exchanged glances with her mother and father, gritted her teeth, and said, "Then call the police."
