1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 85 Eavesdropping
Looking at the mule cart going away, Meng Shulan's face gradually became hot and soon burned.

She felt an unprecedented embarrassment and wished that time could go back and that God would give her another chance to take back what she had said and done.

Oh my god, they have clarified and denied it, she must be being overly sentimental again.

Gu Hansong didn't mean that at all.

He treated himself as a friend, just like in the previous life?
God!

Meng Shulan was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into the ground. She didn't know how to face the situation next.

Fortunately, he left first.

Meng Shulan quickly ran into the school with her things.

On the third day after the snow stopped, the snow in the school had been almost cleared, but it was still gloomy and cold, with melted snow everywhere, and the cold was biting through the waders.

When Meng Shulan returned to the dormitory, there was actually no one there except Hu Bifang and another girl named Wang Chunmei.

After asking, I found out that after the road was opened yesterday, the school gave everyone two days off so that everyone could go back to get clothes and food and make temporary repairs.

Hu Bifang and Wang Chunmei stayed because someone from their family came to deliver something to them and they didn't need to go back.

"Shulan, it's a good thing you asked for leave that morning. We were trapped in school with such heavy snow afterwards. The pipes were frozen, hot water was scarce, and we didn't even have water shoes to go out. Those few days were miserable."

When Hu Bifang saw Meng Shulan, she sighed and envied her for having such a lucky departure.

What could Meng Shulan say? She smiled and took out some fried sweet potatoes for everyone to eat.

The school is closed for two days and classes will not resume until evening self-study.

In her previous life, Meng Shulan went back home after the passage and didn’t even remember about the holiday. She thought it was only yesterday and she had classes today.

If I had known earlier, I would have spent more time with my sister and helped her deal with her troubles.

But since she was back, she didn't rush out. She borrowed their notebooks and made up for the lessons from the previous two days.

Although it snowed these days and the roads were difficult to walk on, and it was too cold to sit in the classroom, and the junior high school department had suspended classes, their college entrance examination classes did not stop. They were arranged to light a stove in the cafeteria and take turns to attend classes for two days.

Meng Shulan thought that she would catch up on her studies first and then go out to find her sister.

But as soon as she sat down, she forgot the time. After she finished copying all the notes and questions, she asked and found out that it was already past eleven o'clock.

Meng Shulan quickly packed up her things and ran outside.

Hu Bifang also asked her what she was going to do?
"My sister and my dad came to town this morning. I'm going out to take a look."

Meng Shulan put on a scarf, changed into waders, and quickly left the school gate.

It was too late and I didn’t know whether my sister had left with my father.

It was a very cold day and there were few people on the streets. She walked and looked all the way to the town entrance, but she didn't see her sister and father.

It seems he has gone back.

Indeed, several hours had passed and the weather was cold, so he would definitely leave as soon as he finished his business.

Meng Shulan felt a little disappointed and wanted to ask about the situation, especially the Women's Federation, but she didn't know if those people were willing to help.

But even if her sister wasn't around, she could still go and ask.

Thinking of this, Meng Shulan went to the grain station.

The town Women's Federation's office is inside the grain station, a small bungalow with a sign hanging on it and two tables inside. That's the Women's Federation.

The grain station is at the back of the street, a little far away, on the edge of town.

Meng Shulan turned into a small dam field for drying grain. Just as she was about to go over, she saw Gu Hansong.

The grain station is quite large, and usually when people drive to town, if they encounter any inconvenience, they will park their cars here.

It’s not surprising that Gu Hansong would appear here, but who is the girl next to him?

In all her past lives, this was the first time Meng Shulan had seen another woman standing next to him. Was she a relative or a friend?
Not too possible.

The Gu family has very few relatives in the village. Except for an eldest aunt who married in the next village, the rest are distant relatives and they don’t interact with each other very often.

As for friends, that's even more impossible.

Meng Shulan was sure that he had no other friends of the opposite sex except herself.

and so……

Meng Shulan walked over slowly, not facing it directly, but from the side, moving towards that side along the wall.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just wanted to listen to what the two of them were talking about and what their relationship was.

The two men were standing right next to the electric pole, behind the triangular part of the wall.

Meng Shulan quietly moved over and soon heard the conversation between the two.

In fact, it wasn’t a conversation, it was simply the girl talking.

And the girl didn't even say a few words before Gu Hansong was ready to leave.

"Gu Hansong, stop!"

The girl with two big braids, wearing a blue cotton-padded jacket and black cotton-padded pants, saw that he was about to leave and actually had the courage to grab his hand.

Yes, hold hands, not arms or clothes or anything like that.

Gu Hansong didn't expect her to do this suddenly. He felt like he was electrocuted and pushed her away. Looking at the girl again, he frowned slightly as if he was disgusted.

The girl smiled softly, a little hurt.

"Gu Hansong, what I just said, are you really not going to consider it?"

Gu Hansong didn't say anything, just got on the mule cart, pulled the rope and left.

The girl was a little anxious and quickly chased after him.

"Are you stupid? I told you I don't want anything, I just like you. I've talked to my family and they don't care anymore. I heard from your aunt that your dad and grandma don't have any objections either, so why are you still so stubborn?"

You're almost 21 and still haven't considered clothing, food, marriage, and having children. Aren't you afraid of being a bachelor in the future?"

Gu Hansong didn't say a word and went straight forward.

The woman was so anxious that she was jumping up and down, but she couldn't just follow him.

Further ahead is the street, with people coming and going, and she can't afford to lose face.

Soon, Gu Hansong left and disappeared.

The woman stood there with her fists clenched, feeling aggrieved and her eyes red.

At this moment, Meng Shulan came out, thought for a moment and said to the girl, "Don't waste your energy."

Although she had never seen this person before, she had guessed from the conversation just now that this person was the one from Shuangxi Village, whose name seemed to be Zhen.

Meng Shulan didn’t know the details, but she had heard someone mention it in her previous life.

Anyway, this girl fell in love with Gu Hansong and insisted on marrying him. She even asked Gu's aunt to act as a matchmaker for her. However, Gu Hansong had no idea about this at all, and in the end, the villagers accused him of being ungrateful.

In fact, it’s not that Gu Hansong is ungrateful.

When it comes to love, it's not just about fate; both parties have to be willing!

Meng Shulan couldn't help it and wanted to come out to give some advice.

She didn't want anyone to talk about Gu Hansong. Even if it was just a few gossips, she would feel uncomfortable.
