1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 64 Desperate Situation
There is no electricity in the village now, so there is certainly no telephone.

But there is one in town, there is one in the town office.

Huang Jialin works in the town office. As the former commune secretary, Huang Yaozhong wants to contact his son by phone, so he has some face.

On the mule cart, Meng Shulan was also thinking about this question.

But she soon felt that it was impossible.

In the previous life, if the old couple of the Huang family had informed them, then my sister would not have been able to catch them in bed.

Therefore, due to various reasons, the two were unable to notify the other side by phone, so they went there in person. Although they were unable to inform the two before their sister, they eventually let Jiang Tao escape.

Yes, that's the way things should be.

Meng Shulan was thinking carefully.

In front, Gu Hansong looked back at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Meng Shulan smiled and said to his back, "I'm thinking of how to thank you."

From sending himself to the village where the Huang family lived, and then to the town, he didn't even know why he was so persistent and insisted on braving the heavy snow to find his sister, but sent himself there without hesitation.

Meng Shulan was really grateful for his meticulous care when she was a child. The familiarity and intimacy of him sitting in front of her hospital bed and peeling apples for her in her previous life came back to her.

Gu Hansong: "Have you thought about it?"

Meng Shulan: "No. I was just about to ask you, do you have any needs or wants?"

Needs, wants...

Cheng Hansong looked back at her, his eyes beneath the bamboo hat as deep as a black pool.

Meng Shulan was holding an umbrella and couldn't see his expression at all, she only knew that the man turned his head.

She raised the umbrella a little higher and tilted her head to look at him. Gu Hansong turned away again and said calmly, "I'll tell you when I've thought it over."

Oh, I have to owe someone a favor first!
Meng Shulan smiled and said, "Don't be polite to me."

"Ah."

The snow was so heavy that the mule cart gradually slowed down in the second half.

After finally arriving in the town, Meng Shulan took down her umbrella and saw that the thickest part of the snow was half a finger thick.

She said to Gu Hansong, "Find a place to clean up the car. I'll go ask if there are any other cars available."

Meng Shulan ran away after she finished speaking.

In her memory, in her previous life, by the afternoon all traffic around her had almost come to a standstill.

They were trapped in the school. Except for the students from town and nearby areas who were picked up and left, everyone else stayed in the dormitory.

The school was unable to notify everyone one by one, so it used loudspeakers to notify village after village about the students staying in school.

Now, it’s not even noon yet, and Meng Shulan hopes that everything is still in time.

There is no direct bus from the town to Tongguan Town. If you want to go there, you can only go through other towns.

Meng Shulan is currently taking a bus to Youqu Town.

Youqu Town is about ten kilometers away from here. On weekdays, there will be tractors waiting for passengers or helping people transport goods. Anyone going in that direction can take a ride. There is no fixed time. When there are enough people or the goods are fully loaded, they will leave.

If it is a normal day, there will basically be a car available if you come here in the morning.

But today, the station staff told her that the only tractor had left and was no longer available.

No more cars!

Indeed, along the way, she did not see any means of transportation, nor did she see her sister.

It seemed her sister had caught up, but she had been left behind. Meng Shulan stood in the snow, holding an umbrella, watching the station staff packing up their things, planning to leave work early. She felt lost and helpless, not knowing what to do.

"Comrade, is there really no car left? Any car will do as long as it's going in that direction."

There is an old man sitting here supervising order and selling tickets.

"Little girl, it's snowing so heavily! Even if you have a car, I advise you not to take it. It's only been a few hours and it's piled up so thick! The weather is so bad, and the road is so dangerous. If something happens, who will be held responsible?"

"Which village are you from? Go back quickly, the road gets harder and harder as you get further back."

The old man picked up his lunch box, opened the door and left.

Meng Shulan stood there, staring at the empty ticket office, her heart sinking.

At this moment, her ambition and determination to change her fate were like a cracked wall in a blizzard. It was soaked and blown down, and began to fail.

Why is it this step slow?

It was like this in the previous life, and it is still like this after rebirth.

Is God against her?
No, that's not the case.

This snow also happened in my previous life.

Therefore, it was not God who was targeting her, but she herself was not vigilant and hardworking enough.

She was blindly confident in things she had never participated in.

Meng Shulan turned around with an umbrella in hand, wanting to see if the state-owned restaurant was still open, buy some dry food, and then go find her sister.

Yes, she would go even if she didn’t have a car. Even if she had to crawl, she would crawl to her sister.

She couldn't let her sister face all that alone and helplessly. She wanted to stand behind her, support her, and be her strong backing when her sister needed her the most.

"Do we really have to go there?"

Gu Hansong came over and blocked Meng Shulan's way.

Meng Shulan nodded, "Definitely."

Gu Hansong: "If you don't have a car, just walk?"

Meng Shulan: “Yes.”

Gu Hansong: "Do you know what the weather is like now?"

The usually aloof person also became a little anxious, and there was helplessness and a hint of anger in his voice.

Meng Shulan: "I know, I know all this. But I can't think of any other way for the time being, and if I miss this opportunity, I'm not sure how things will develop in the future. Can my sister and brother-in-law successfully divorce? Can I seize this mistake and take over the custody of my two nieces?

And Huang Jialin, those two old men from the Huang family, their deception, they treated my Meng family as fools. These things can't be let go like this, I want them to pay the price, I can't let them go like this. "

It was too hasty, and Meng Shulan's speech became incoherent at the end.

At this time, she was really helpless.

She wondered why she was so stupid. As soon as there was a deviation or an accident, she started to get afraid of this and that, becoming spineless and unable to find her direction.

If only she were as smart as Gu Hansong, who could always control everything around him and find hope in desperate situations.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in complaining. Since she is stupid, let's use stupid methods.

Meng Shulan tightened the umbrella in her hand and looked at Gu Hansong, "With such heavy snow, even if my sister leaves, there's a high probability that she will be trapped in the towns along the way and won't be able to reach Tongguan Town.

Tomorrow is market day. I remember the supply and marketing cooperative's truck would come the day before market day to deliver goods. I'll go and ask if the truck has arrived. If not, I can wait until it returns to the city and hitchhike. I'll get off at Heluokou. From there, it's only about three or four miles to Youqu Town.
