In the cave, Madman Yu watched Sheng Fenghua close the diary and asked, "You've finished reading it. What's written inside?"
Sheng Fenghua glanced at Madman Yu, then passed the diary to him and said, "Read it yourself!"
However, Madman Yu didn't take the diary. He looked at Sheng Fenghua and said, "I can't read!"
His words stunned Sheng Fenghua, and she said, "I'm sorry!"
The reason why she had shown the diary to Madman Yu earlier was because she thought that he had kept these things safe for more than ten years without ever opening them. She felt that he was an honest and trustworthy person!
Moreover, he saved Xiaoye's life.
She didn't expect Madman Yu to be illiterate.
"It's okay!" Madman Yu waved his hand. Illiteracy wasn't a big deal. In their village, there weren't many people who could read, let alone people of their generation.
Thus, Sheng Fenghua briefly explained the contents of the diary to Lunatic Yu.
After listening to Sheng Fenghua, Madman Yu suddenly asked, "Xiaoye didn't mention anything about her leaving?"
"No!"
Sheng Fenghua shook her head and looked at Madman Yu. "When Xiaoye lived in your house and you saved her life, she didn't tell you before she left?"
"No. If she did, I wouldn't have let her leave. Although she had recuperated for a month, her body was still very weak. "
Sheng Fenghua believed Madman Yu's words. However, Xiaoye didn't mention the identity of those burly men, nor did she mention why those bandits killed her family.
If it was a robbery, the Ye family wasn't the wealthiest in that place. Moreover, according to Xiaoye, those bandits didn't take the money away after killing them. Instead, they burned it.
Sheng Fenghua pondered and guessed the motive and identity of those people.
However, it was really hard to determine their identity based on the few words in the diary.
After thinking for a while, Sheng Fenghua couldn't figure it out. She put it aside for the time being and turned to ask Madman Yu, "Uncle Yu, I want to know why the people in the village don't mention my mother. Did something else happen? Or did someone threaten everyone? "
Madman Yu looked at Sheng Fenghua in silence.
Sheng Fenghua did not rush him, but waited quietly. After a while, Madman Yu finally spoke, "Not long after Little Ye left, some people came to the village."
"Who are they?"
"Those people were accompanied by the leaders of the county. They found the village chief and asked about Xiao Ye."
"The leaders of the county?" Sheng Fenghua frowned. Didn't Little Ye say that the people who killed the Ye family were bandits? How did it have anything to do with the officials?
"That's right. I heard that he's a high-ranking official. They were actually looking for Xiaoye, but Xiaoye had already left, so they couldn't find her. Before they left, they made everyone in the village swear that no one would ever mention anything about Little Ye again. "
"Why would they do that?" Sheng Fenghua was even more puzzled. Could it be that the Ye Family's death was related to a big secret?
Otherwise, why would they make such a request?
"About that, I don't know either. I only know that those people gathered everyone together and made everyone swear an oath that no matter who it is, no one is allowed to mention Little Ye, and no one is allowed to mention them. Otherwise, a disaster will befall them."
