After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 1867 No wonder he has so much energy, turns out he's a big eater.

Fu Qin hesitated and struggled at the thought of the rock climbing route and wading through the river she had come from. She didn't want to go; every cell in her body was protesting!

Zhang Ran smiled at Teacher Jiang: "She's not very strong, and she can't carry much stuff if she buys it. Let's go together." Her gaze then fell on Fu Qin. "You go with the principal to the carpenter's house and talk about how much it would cost to make a bed." She kicked the wooden bed made of three benches. "This bed is unusable."

"Then it's decided." Before Teacher Jiang could speak, the principal made the final decision, telling Fu Qin and Zhang Ran to put away their suitcases and lock the door. He then took Fu Qin to the carpenter's house.

Zhang Ran went to town with Teacher Jiang.

Along the way, Teacher Jiang kept observing Zhang Ran, asking her where she was from and where she went to university.

“I went to university in Beijing,” Zhang Ran replied, then asked, “How many years did Teacher Jiang teach in Stone Village?”

"It's been more than ten years..."

The two people talked as they walked.

Zhang Ran learned about Stone Village and Teacher Jiang's family situation through Teacher Jiang.

He is already married with children, but he only has a high school education and failed to get into university, so he returned to his village to become a teacher.

Every year, Teacher Jiang would take the college students who were going to teach in the countryside to town to buy things. Regardless of gender, they couldn't keep up physically, and they would often slip and fall, making a fool of themselves.

He had assumed that Zhang Ran, a college student from the city, would also be unable to keep up with him, and he was waiting for her to fall and hurt her head and ask him for help. Unexpectedly, she was agile and had plenty of energy. On the contrary, he gradually ran out of energy and begged Zhang Ran to slow down.

Zhang Ran wore a wristwatch and would check the time every now and then.

After walking for about two hours, a motorcycle rode past us, and the person on it looked somewhat familiar.

Before she could get a good look, the other person had already stopped and turned around to ask, "Going to town? Do you need a ride?"

Zhang Ran looked closely and saw that it was He Bo's son.

"Yes." Zhang Ran said, gesturing for Teacher Jiang to sit down first, then she would sit down. With one arm across her chest, even if the ride was bumpy, Teacher Jiang's back would only bump against her arm.

The motorcycle sped for over an hour before reaching the town, without ever crossing the river that blocked the way.

She jumped out of the car without questioning anyone, because she had already guessed that Teacher Jiang had deliberately taken her on a longer route to avoid wading across the river.

After paying the fare, Teacher Jiang took Zhang Ran to the farmers' market, where all sorts of things were sold.

Zhang Ran first bought three of the largest capacity suitcases and handed one of them to Teacher Jiang.

Teacher Jiang: "...Three suitcases, how much stuff are you going to buy?"

“It’s too much trouble to come all this way, so I might as well buy more at once,” Zhang Ran explained.

Teacher Jiang didn't say anything more. Carrying her empty suitcase, she followed behind Zhang Ran. Seeing that she had only bought one quilt, she couldn't help but remind her, "It's probably not enough for you and Teacher Fu to buy just one quilt, right?" Then she changed the subject and said, "Buying one quilt is fine. The village chief must have extra quilts at home. If it's not enough, you can ask him to buy another one."

Zhang Ran didn't explain that it wasn't necessary at all; she and Fu Qin sharing a blanket was enough.

We asked Teacher Jiang how she usually manages to eat.

Upon learning that she would need to cook for herself, Zhang Ran bought a small pot, two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, a spatula, dishes, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, rice, flour... a whole bunch of things, until all three suitcases were filled.

Teacher Jiang didn't see Zhang Ran take out her wallet to pay. Her hand kept reaching into her pocket to take out money. She would take out a hundred-yuan bill, use it, and then keep taking out more, as if she would never run out.

While shopping, Zhang Ran treated Teacher Jiang to pork rib noodles at a small restaurant.

Teacher Jiang thought she was from Beijing and wouldn't be used to eating at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant, but to her surprise, she ate bowl after bowl.

The boss served the pork rib noodles in a soup bowl, one bowl was enough for him, but Zhang Ran ate three big bowls. No wonder he had so much energy, he was a big eater.
