After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 1932 Pickle Jars Contain Ashes

After school, Zhang Ran went to Shi Lao Er's house alone again to inquire about the situation.

The village chief sighed, "We've been searching all day but haven't found anyone. My sister-in-law is still lying unconscious in the hospital."

"Are we short-handed?" Zhang Ran suggested. "Why don't we call the police as soon as possible and ask them to help us find the missing people?"

The village chief had already planned to report the incident to the police station tomorrow. "Tomorrow, I'll go to the hospital with Da Ni to check on him. If he's still not awake, I'll call the police."

With Da Ni at home, Zhang Ran didn't stay overnight and stood up to leave.

Liu Ni suddenly chased after her.

Zhang Ran heard footsteps and turned around to look at her.

Liu Ni couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, does this mean I can't go to school anymore?" She hadn't been to school for two days because of her parents' accident.

Zhang Ran stepped forward and patted her head: "If you want to go to school, you can. Bring your younger siblings to school tomorrow and let them stay in the teachers' dormitory." Er Ya had carried Siya to school before, and the teachers understood and tacitly approved.

Liu Ni's eyes lit up with joy, but then she shook her head: "Never mind, teacher, can you give me some homework instead?" Her older sister was right; she couldn't cause the teacher any more trouble.

“Okay.” Zhang Ran stood still.

After Liu Ni ran out with her books, Zhang Ran taught the missed lessons again, assigned homework, and then left.

Inside the lobby, Da Ni, who was standing near the entrance, watched this scene quietly until Zhang Ran left. When Liu Ni approached, she reached out and touched Liu Ni's head: "Sixth Sister, you've met a good teacher. Study hard."

She was very envious of Sixth Sister for meeting Teacher Zhang, who was able to help girls apply for student loans to go to school.

These days, you can't even borrow money from relatives, yet a complete stranger is willing to lend money to girls to go to school. If only she had been born a few years later, she would have wanted to go to school too.

"Big sister, I got first place for the first time, but my parents wouldn't let me go to school..." Liu Ni recounted what happened more than a month ago, "...This month I got second place, and Teacher Zhang rewarded me with five yuan and pork. I took it home, but my parents beat me and scolded me for being useless and failing to get first place."

"Big sister, am I really that useless?"

Dani bent down and hugged her, tears streaming down her face. "No, you're amazing." At that moment, she harbored a malicious hope: if they couldn't find their father, they would never find him. Without their father, her sisters would only thrive.

She didn't want them to grow up to be like her, sold as merchandise.

When Zhang Ran returned to school, Fu Qin had already prepared dinner.

The two chatted while eating, and their conversation over the past few days had revolved around Mr. and Mrs. Shi.

Fu Qin asked gossipily, "How's it going? Have you found him yet?"

Zhang Ran shook her head: "She was probably taken away by Erni."

Fu Qin: "...Don't scare me with those kinds of words."

"What are you afraid of?" Zhang Ran glanced subconsciously at the suitcase placed in the corner. "If you do nothing wrong during the day, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door at night."

This area is very underdeveloped and still practices traditional burial, so K couldn't buy an urn. Instead, he bought a kimchi jar to put the ashes in and gave it to Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran originally kept it under the bed, but later worried that Fu Qin would see it and take it out to check, so she simply put it in her suitcase.

"It's getting more and more creepy." Fu Qin touched the goosebumps on her arms and quickly changed the subject.
