Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 753

Chapter 753: Startling Discovery
Seeing Feng Lin nodded, Dong Huang pouted and said, “Hmph! So it was like this. My brother is going too far!”

Feng Lin asked in confusion when he saw her pouting, “Xiao Huang, why are you suddenly angry?”

Dong Huang looked at him and said anxiously, “Ah Lin, brother Jianmin should be our friend. With him in our group, there will be at least as many people as my brother’s group. In this way, when we need to vote to make a decision, we can still win.”

“But it’s good now. My brother secretly dragged Brother Jianmin into his group. Sister Fuyan also joined him. If we need to vote then, we will definitely lose ah,” she added with distress.

Seeing her pouting mouth and bulging cheeks, Feng Lin frowned and suggested, “How about we go find brother Jianmin every day during the snacks break. If he eats with us every day, even if he joins your brother’s group, he might also help us when we need to vote.”

When Dong Huang heard what he said, her eyes lit up and she said, “Ah Lin, you are so smart! Then I will ask my mother to make more snacks for Brother Jianmin tomorrow.”

“We also need to find out what Brother Jianmin’s siblings like to eat. My father said that to win someone, we need to win the people around him,” she added.

Although Feng Lin didn’t understand what she meant, he still kept it in mind and said, “Then should we invite Xiao Bai to come too? He is in the first grade, so we can also ask him about Xiao Yan during snack time.”

“Oh, this is a good idea! If Xiao Bai and Xiao Yan join us, we can win even if Brother Jianmin joins my brother,” Dong Huang clapped her hands happily.

Seeing that she was finally happy, Feng Lin heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “As long as you are happy.”

At the same time, at the foot of the mountain, Grandpa Feng and Grandma Feng were picking mushrooms when they suddenly heard a loud scream nearby. The two were startled by the scream and hurried over, fearing that someone was hurt.

When they arrived at the source of the screams, they saw several children huddled together as they cried.

“Child, what’s going on?” Grandpa Feng asked.

Hearing his voice, the children looked at him one after another, and one of them said, “Grandpa Feng, there… there is a hand!”

Grandpa Feng and Grandma Feng were shocked when they heard his words. Walking toward them, Grandma Feng hugged the children and said, “Don’t be afraid. Let’s go back first and report this matter to the team leader.”

The children were frightened after finding a hand buried in the mountain foothills. So, after hearing what Grandma Feng said, they readily agreed.

Since these foothills are located at the junction of Xie village and Yun village, villagers from the two villages used to come here to collect firewood or pick mushrooms and wild vegetables. Although their villages are close to each other, they belong to different production teams.

With this discovery, instead of going home, they went to find the team leader when they arrived in the village. Yun village was included into the 10th production team, and their team leader was an honest and strict man.

Arriving at the production team office, Grandpa Feng knocked on the door, “Team leader, deputy team leader, are you there?”

Not long after, a muscular man opened the door and said, “Uncle Feng, why are you here? Come in quickly.”

Grandpa Feng, Grandma Feng, and the children came in and sat down in the lounge.

Seeing the pale faces of the children, the team leader asked, “Uncle Feng, what’s going on? Why are the children like this?”

“Team leader, my wife and I were picking mushrooms at the foot of the mountain when we suddenly heard a scream. We were worried that someone was injured, so we went to check the situation. But when we arrived, we saw that the children were already like this,” Grandpa Feng explained.

After hearing his explanation, the team leader frowned and looked at the children. Although the children are naughty, they are honest and brave. If they can be frightened like this, they must see something scary.

The team leader looked at his nephew and said, “Ah Bao, tell me what happened.”

Despite his young age, Ah Bao was very calm due to his Father and Uncle’s teaching.

Although his face was pale and his voice was trembling, he still explained everything in an orderly manner, “Uncle, we were playing and collecting firewood, and we didn’t notice that we had crossed over to Xie Village.”

“When we were walking back, Ah Jiu tripped and fell down. We thought he tripped over a tree root, but when we looked closer we found it was a human’s hand.”

Hearing his nephew’s words, the team leader was surprised and asked, “Ah Bao, are you sure it was a human’s hand?”

The children heard his question and nodded one after another.

One of them said, “Uncle team leader, although it is covered with dirt and maggots, we are sure that it is a human hand. It is really disgusting and scary!”

After thinking for a while, the team leader said, “Everyone should go back first and not go to the mountain foothills until this matter is resolved. I will notify the authorities, and we will go to the foothills to check what was going on.”

After reporting to the team leader, Grandpa Feng and Grandma Feng sent the children back to their homes before they walked back. When they entered the house, they saw Dong Li and Chen Jianmin were busy repairing the fence.

Seeing them coming back, Dong Li smiled and said, “Grandpa Feng, Grandma Feng, you are back.”

“Dong Li, why are you repairing the fence? Where is Xiao Lin?” Grandma Feng asked.
