After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 1877 There was already a shortage of manpower for funeral arrangements, so it was naturally

"The cart belongs to the village chief; he was delivering goods when someone else called him away halfway there," Zhang Ran explained, then suddenly asked, "Is there someone in your village named Gou Dan?"

Teacher Jiang nodded, "There is indeed a guy in our village named Gou Dan. He's over thirty and still idles around all day. He doesn't know how to go out and work to earn money." Gou Dan's biggest hobby is peeping at women taking a bath. He's been caught several times and beaten countless times, but he still can't get rid of this bad habit.

Zhang Ran made a startling statement: "He's dead. The village chief went to his house."

"What?!" Teacher Jiang was shocked and quickly put down his chopsticks. "I have to go!" They were all from the same village and related by blood. If someone suddenly disappeared, he would definitely have to go and see what happened.

Teacher Jiang left in a hurry.

Watching Teacher Jiang's figure disappear from sight, Fu Qin looked away and asked Zhang Ran curiously, "Someone died in the village, should we go?"

Zhang Ran glanced at her rice bowl: "We don't know where Gou Dan lives, so let's not bother with him since we're not related. Hurry up and eat, it's getting cold."

Fu Qin, her face full of gossip, asked, "Is Gou Dan a man? How old was he? How did he suddenly die? Do you know how he died?"

Zhang Ran said lightly, "The person who came to deliver the message told the village chief that he accidentally rolled down the hillside and broke his neck."

Did you break your neck? Fu Qin immediately felt a cold, sharp pain in her neck and shrank back, saying, "If you hadn't pulled me up the day we came here, I would have fallen too. This lousy place is so unlucky; you could fall and die even just walking down the street."

Seeing that she had no suspicions whatsoever, and that the dog who had broken his neck and died was the thief who had tried to break into the dormitory last night, Zhang Ran stopped chatting with her and went to do her work.

Before it got dark, I used tools to dismantle a broken desk, and used the wooden planks to repair the gaps in the dormitory door. As for the broken window, there's no way to repair it for now.

Thinking that many of the classroom windows are broken, I'll find someone to replace them all when I have time.

Take the rice out of the suitcase and pour it into the rice container.

He carried buckets to the public well and carried them back and forth, fetching water until the water tank was full.

After finishing her meal, Fu Qin washed the dishes and placed the new cotton quilt that Zhang Ran had bought underneath, so that she would be warm when she slept at night.

Seeing Zhang Ran return with water, she added more water to the pot, heated it up, and then used it for washing up.

The two had just finished washing up and were about to go to bed when the village chief suddenly arrived.

"Teacher Zhang, I want to discuss something with you, is that alright?" The village chief smiled and explained to Zhang Ran, "All the young people in our village have gone out to work, leaving behind only the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled."

"I don't know what that dog was doing in the middle of the night last night, he accidentally fell and died."

“His parents bought a coffin from the carpenter. I’m too old to lift it. Could you please help me?” Although cremation has been implemented in other areas, burial is still the norm in this poor mountain village, and no one dares to interfere.

“No problem.” Zhang Ran nodded in agreement.

The village chief was overjoyed to see how easy she was to talk to and urged her to leave quickly.

"Can I come with you?" Fu Qin quickly chased after Zhang Ran when she saw that Zhang Ran was about to leave her behind. She was afraid to sleep alone, worried that the thief from last night would come to the dormitory to steal things again.

Funeral arrangements are always short-handed, so it's a good thing that Fu Qin is willing to go. The village chief readily agreed, grateful for their help.

Fu Qin locked the door and they went to the carpenter's house together.
