Chapter 320 Covering up
"Hahahaha! Good death! Good death! Hahahaha!" Luo Youdi stood up and laughed wildly.
Her crazy appearance attracted other students, but scared them away.
Zhang Ran walked away silently, and waited until she calmed down after her madness, then he walked up to her and handed her his handkerchief.
Luo Youdi stretched out her arms and hooked them around Zhang Ran's neck, pulling him into her arms. Then she took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears. "Tell me, how did your second sister die?"
Zhang Ran: "...How do you know she's dead? Maybe she lived longer than any of us."
"Tsk tsk tsk, forget it." Luo Youdi let go of her. "Second sister is such a coward that she doesn't even dare to fight back even when she was beaten to death. It's a wonder she can live long."
Zhang Ran smiled, "You really know her. She was indeed beaten to death by her second uncle, and then thrown into the well in the yard by him. He then filled the well and told everyone that a dead rat had fallen into the well. He also complained first and brought people to my grandparents' house to make a scene, spreading the news that my second aunt had run away with a strange man, and everyone believed it..."
"I can't believe it!" Luo Youdi suddenly interrupted.
Zhang Ran glanced at her and said, "What's the point of not believing it? No one found the person alive or dead. More than ten years later, when the old house was demolished, the body was found in the well. Second uncle's husband was arrested, and everyone knew that Second Aunt didn't run away with the wild man at all, but was killed by him."
“Don’t the kids know this either?!” Luo Youdi’s eyes were filled with hatred and she clenched her fists.
Zhang Ran frowned, "I'm not sure about that." Anyway, she didn't believe that the children knew nothing about it.
The three children are in school, so even if they are not at home during the day, they must be at home at night.
My second aunt was beaten to death by her second uncle-in-law at night and then thrown into the well. It was such a loud noise, and the three children who lived under the same roof were not deaf, so how could they not hear it?
Seeing the expression on Zhang Ran's face, Luo Youdi guessed that the children knew about it. Perhaps they were threatened by Qian Fuguo and finally chose to protect him. After all, their mother was dead, and if their father went to jail again, who would raise them?
"How...did you die?" Luo Youdi looked at Zhang Ran in confusion, and finally couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Ran was silent for a moment, and calmly recounted how he was murdered and dismembered by his family.
Luo Youdi's eyes were red and she clenched her teeth, "Beasts! They are all beasts!" She believed that Qian Fuguo, who had a tendency to violence, beat her second sister to death. Naturally, she also believed that her eldest brother and sister-in-law attacked Zhang Ran for the sake of their beloved son Luo Yaozu.
That way, everything makes sense.
No wonder this child suddenly understood a lot of things and even changed his name. "Luo Yaozu went to jail... Did you do it?" What she really wanted to ask was whether Xiaoyue was responsible for her brother's death? Was it her who framed her sister-in-law for going to jail? But there were some questions she didn't dare to ask, and she shouldn't ask.
Zhang Ran laughed, "Aunt, what nonsense are you talking about? It's not like I put a knife to Yaozu's neck and forced him to rob." He looked up at the starry sky, then looked down at Luo Youdi again, "What I just said was just a nightmare, don't take it seriously. It's late, Xiaoying should go find her mother, you should go back."
Seeing the girl hiding her vigilance with a smile, Luo Youdi's heart ached, "... Don't worry, I won't say anything. I also warned Arya today."
"Aunt, you think too much. I am a model student and a law-abiding citizen." Zhang Ran said goodbye to her, "I'm going back to the dormitory."
