1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 220 Funeral
The bride's party arrived, and Hu Bifang had no time to talk to Meng Shulan. She quickly ate something, went through the subsequent formalities, and then followed the man to his side.

Meng Shulan did not come to see the bride off. Hu Bifang didn't have many friends at school, so she only invited Meng Shulan. She had no companions, so she went home after dinner.

In the afternoon, He Jinqiu and his group returned from Zhou's house after the wedding banquet.

When talking about today's wedding, everyone felt good.

The Hu family was poor, and the dowry was a little small, which seemed a bit underwhelming, but the Zhou family still took it very seriously. They made a new bed and a new cabinet, and also bought a watch and a radio. I heard that the betrothal gift was 300 yuan.

Wow, I gave you three hundred yuan and also prepared two big items.

This is incredible. The Zhou family is sincere and unmatched. Even when Hu Bifang passed the exam later, people around her had nothing to say.

The Zhou family married a daughter-in-law of the same standard as city dwellers.

You have to know that in the past few years, people were not well fed and clothed, and some people only received a few dozen yuan as a betrothal gift, just two cups and a washbasin. It is nothing compared to now.

Meng Shulan was happy for Hu Bifang when she heard her mother say that.

Meng Shulan didn't know how Hu Bifang's wedding went in her previous life, but the Zhou family showed enough sincerity in this life.

As for Zhou Yan, the couple had a very good relationship in their previous life, and they will only be happier in this life.

At night, since the family had just had lunch at noon, we didn’t make things so complicated. Just a bowl of egg noodles for each person to fill their stomach was enough.

Meng Changli did not return from the city today, and the relatives who took care of the two children also went back to the village for vacation. Meng Shulan slept with the two children.

The weather was hot and she couldn't sleep, so she first fanned the two children to sleep, then sat at the table and read a book for a while before she lifted the curtain and lay down.

There are many mountains and forests in the villages and towns. The sun is scorching during the day, but it gradually becomes cooler at night.

This feeling is more comfortable than being in the city some time ago.

Meng Shulan fell asleep quickly.

I don’t know if it was because I attended a wedding banquet today and witnessed other people’s happiness, but I felt a little excited and had this dream after falling asleep.

This dream is the opposite of the happy events during the day.

She dreamed of a funeral, her own funeral.

Under the continuous drizzle, her coffin had been lowered into the pit on the hillside covered with cypress trees and weeds.

All around, the mourners in black suits stood silently.

The cries of several people in the Meng family were deafening. Meng Changli knelt on the ground and couldn't be pulled up. Meng Chenggong was also crying, and his voice sounded like a cow.

Gu Hansong was also there, looking haggard and thin, with a numb and gloomy expression, as he was filling the grave with soil one shovel at a time.

It turns out that I was not cremated in my previous life, and my soul returned to my hometown.

Meng Shulan knew she was dreaming, and she was scared, but also a little relieved.

But the face painting quickly changed, and a figure with a bloody face and a broken head appeared in her dream again.

The man was wearing prison clothes and lying under the iron fence in the playground, with a bloody brick beside him.

His death was very ugly. His eyes were wide open, and his ferocious expression showed despair and fear, as well as understanding and unwillingness.

Meng Shulan recognized this person, it was Han Ning!

He was caught?

In jail?
Still dead!
Meng Shulan was about to laugh, but who knew that the corpse in her dream opened its mouth and called out her name.

"Meng, Shu, Lan..."

"what!!!"

Meng Shulan was startled and sat up directly from the bed.

It was already bright outside the window. In the familiar room, with gray curtains, her two nieces were still sleeping soundly on the other side of her bed.

Meng Shulan wiped the sweat from her forehead, opened the curtains, and slowly got out of bed. Although it was a dream, it was too scary, and her pounding heart still hadn't slowed down.

Meng Shulan sat on a chair, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, recalling the scenes in her dream.

If that scumbag Han Ning hadn't come back to life in the end, Meng Shulan wouldn't have thought it was a dream, but an extension of her own death in her previous life.

It's so real. This is probably how everything happened after her death.

She had said before her death that she wanted to return to her hometown after her death, so it was reasonable for the murderer Han Ning to be arrested.

How come he died in prison? This scene is a bit awkward.

Of course, it is also possible, for example, he offended someone in there, or someone wanted to kill him.

Meng Shulan thought of Gu Hansong.

Will he use some means to avenge himself?
Also a possibility.

I just don't know if it will implicate him.

Meng Shulan sighed, put down her fan and went out.

In the yard, He Jinqiu also got up and was picking vegetables and preparing to make breakfast.

Today is the day when the school releases the results, and Meng Shulan went there after breakfast.

As the mother and daughter were talking, Montford drove over in a donkey cart.

Yesterday, Meng Fude also went to the Zhou family to attend the wedding, but he did not stay here at night. He went back to the village because he could not leave his pigs, chickens and ducks at home.

After seven o'clock in the morning, the family went out together after breakfast and followed Meng Shulan to school.

Although it was still early, we still met many people who came to see the scores along the way.

There are students and parents involved. After all, it is a big deal and everyone wants to know the result as soon as possible.

Since it was summer vacation, there was no one in the school and the school gate was wide open, so parents could enter freely.

When the Meng family arrived, there were already quite a few people standing inside, some from the town and nearby villages, as well as from the next town and further away.

I heard from those people that they couldn't sleep, so they came here before dawn.

Meng Shulan also met her classmates from the repeat class. Zou Shaojun from the next town came, and Tian Feiyan and Zheng Min were there too.

When they saw Meng Shulan, several people who were on good terms with her came over to talk to her.

I can’t say anything about other people, but Meng Shulan will definitely pass.

Meng Shulan is confident, but the results haven't come out yet, so she can't say anything for sure.

As they were chatting, the principal and several teachers from the graduating class came out.

It was early and they had just finished their meal, but so many classmates couldn't wait and they didn't want to waste everyone's time.

The principal said to everyone, "Students, Teacher Liu only brought back the results last night. It's too late to write the big-character posters now. But it doesn't matter. We will start now. Teacher Liu will read the results while Teacher Zhang will write them. You can also listen to your own results.

Before that, there is one thing I have to say.

This is a great event, the greatest event in the history of our school."

As the principal spoke, he looked at Meng Shulan in the crowd.

"Meng Shulan, please come over and stand with me."

As soon as the three words "Meng Shulan" came out, all the students looked over curiously.

Meng Shulan was also a little confused, but still obediently went to the front.

The principal nodded at her with great satisfaction. When Meng Shulan stood next to him, he puffed out his chest with pride. "Students, join me in applauding. Congratulations to Meng Shulan for getting into her dream foreign language university, despite exceeding the passing score by a wide margin. She also achieved the top score in our county on the college entrance examination."
