Chapter 1933 Teacher, isn't milk only for younger brothers?
After school at noon and having lunch, Zhang Ran planned to go to Liu Ni's house again.
Fu Qin quickly called out to her, "I'll go with you." She didn't like going to Shi Lao Er's house, but she disliked being left behind by Zhang Ran even more.
This time, Zhang Ran didn't go empty-handed. Instead, she went to the convenience store, bought several cartons of milk, and brought them to the door.
Fu Qin glanced at it a few times, then made a cheeky face. "Is this for Jiu Ni? I think you're just all bark and no bite. You even got angry when Jiu Ni called you 'Mom' last time."
Zhang Ran didn't refute, but quickened her pace and left her far behind.
As Fu Qin chased after her, she scolded her for being stingy.
When I arrived at Liu Ni's house, I ran into Liu Ni and her friends having dinner.
The children were used to Zhang Ran's daily visits, but their eyes lit up when they saw the milk in her hand.
Zhang Ran placed the milk on the table. "You guys share it."
For a moment, there was silence. Ba Ni asked timidly, "Teacher, isn't milk only for younger brothers? My parents say we're a waste of money and can't drink milk. They'll beat us to death if we dare to drink it."
"Who said you can't drink it?" Fu Qin said sadly as she opened the milk carton. "Anyone can drink it! Here, take it, all of you!"
"Thank you, teacher!" the girls said in unison, stopping their meals to gather around and share the milk.
Fu Qin gave each of them a bottle, and when it was Jiu Ni's turn, Zhang Ran suddenly said, "Xiao Jiu can drink a lot, give her an extra bottle."
Fu Qin gave her a half-smile and handed two bottles to Xiao Jiu.
"Your sister hasn't come back yet?" Zhang Ran looked around but didn't see Da Ni.
Liu Ni was reluctant to drink the milk in her hand, and mumbled an explanation with her mouth full: "Big sister should be on her way back."
"You guys eat, the teacher's leaving." Zhang Ran turned and left.
Fu Qin also left.
They then went to the village chief's house.
The village chief had just finished eating and was sitting at home sighing when he saw Zhang Ran and the others arrive. He quickly stood up.
Zhang Ran didn't beat around the bush and asked directly, "Village Chief, has Liu Ni's mother woken up?"
The village chief shook his head: "He's not awake. I called the police, and they're searching the mountain with their men."
The village chief's wife clasped her hands together and said, "God help us, we must find it. If we still can't find it..." Although she didn't finish her sentence, everyone understood.
The police found no one and continued their search of the mountain the next day.
On the third day, the police abandoned their post on the mountain and all withdrew.
On the fourth day, Liu Ni's mother finally woke up.
The village chief grumbled to Zhang Ran in his main room, "She's gone mad! She told the police that a ghost took the second son away! She even said the ghost kept chasing her!" They had hoped that once his sister-in-law woke up, they could find the second son, but instead she kept spouting nonsense about seeing a ghost. The second son is doomed!
The news that Shi Lao Er's wife had gone mad after waking up quickly spread throughout the village. In addition, since even the police could not find Shi Lao Er, it was eventually classified as a missing person case.
The villagers firmly believed that Erni had died unjustly and had returned as a vengeful ghost to take revenge, taking Shi Lao Er away.
Da Ni stopped going to the hospital and stayed home to take care of her younger siblings.
With her older sister taking care of her, Liu Ni was finally able to go to school.
It wasn't until Shi Lao Er's wife was discharged from the hospital that the village chief came again, knocking on the table and asking her how she was going to live her life from now on.
After her husband went missing and she was chased by a ghost and fell down a hillside, nearly losing her life, Shi Lao Er's wife was in a daze all day, her spirits were low, and she seemed not to have heard what the village chief said at all.
The village chief had no choice but to repeat loudly, "I'm asking you, do you plan to stay in this family, or do you want to remarry?"
The woman took a long time to move her lips before finally saying, "...I don't know."
