After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 1919 Teacher Jiang was bitten to death by a poisonous snake in his sleep.

At lunchtime, a villager ran breathlessly to the school and found the principal, saying, "Teacher Jiang died at home!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ran and Fu Qin immediately surrounded them.

Upon hearing the news of Teacher Jiang's death, the principal gaped in shock. Teacher Jiang had just been dismissed yesterday, and today he was dead? Could he have committed suicide at home? His mind raced, but in a split second, he asked in a low voice, "How did he die? Suicide?"

The villagers shook their heads. "It wasn't suicide. I heard he was bitten by a snake and died."

"By a snake?" The principal seemed to understand something, and the guilt he felt instantly vanished. As long as it wasn't because of the expulsion, then Teacher Jiang's death had nothing to do with him.

The villager nodded, "At this time of year, the snakes in the mountains are all awake and crawling around everywhere. One of them entered Teacher Jiang's house, climbed onto the bed while he was asleep, and bit him to death. His wife and children discovered it this morning when they came back from their parents' house, and they were terrified."

Every year at this time, venomous snakes awaken from hibernation, and villagers are often bitten. If they are not treated in time, they will die. So when they learned that Teacher Jiang was bitten to death by a venomous snake that ran into his house, everyone felt that he was very unlucky. After all, there were other cases in the village where people were bitten to death by rats in their sleep.

The villagers left the school after delivering the message.

The principal sighed, "How could he have been bitten to death by a poisonous snake?" He looked at Fu Qin and Zhang Ran, "I'm going to the Jiang family to pay my respects. Do you want to come with me?"

Fu Qin, with her clear likes and dislikes, immediately said, "I'm not going." She subconsciously looked at Zhang Ran.

“Respect for the deceased is paramount; I will go with you,” Zhang Ran said.

Upon seeing Zhang Ran about to leave, Fu Qin hesitated, wondering if she should change her mind.

"The Cui Liu meal is almost ready, you can eat first, no need to wait for me," Zhang Ran explained. "I'll most likely be having the feast at the Jiang family's house." She loved her enemy's feast the most, how could she miss it? It wasn't an accident that Teacher Jiang was bitten to death by a poisonous snake in her sleep; she had ordered K to catch a poisonous snake and put it in the room.

K is the mercenary's code name; his real name is unknown.

"Alright then." Fu Qin watched the two leave.

The Jiang family's main hall was filled with the sound of weeping.

The villagers gathered in small groups to discuss Teacher Jiang's death.

The area around Stone Village is surrounded by mountains, and it's not uncommon for villagers to be bitten to death by snakes, insects, venomous ants, or even wild beasts. So when a venomous snake entered Teacher Jiang's house, and he was bitten to death in his sleep, no one questioned the cause of his death. Instead, they suspected he was too lazy, that his wife and children weren't home, and he forgot to sprinkle insect repellent powder around the house.

Following the village custom, the principal took Zhang Ran to the small shop, where they each bought three sheets of yellow paper before heading straight to the Jiang family to offer condolences.

When Zhang Ran checked the accounts, she found that most of the amounts in the ledger were in the 30s or 50s, with the largest being only 100 yuan.

Considering that Teacher Jiang had taught at the school for many years, the principal gritted his teeth and paid 200 yuan, then walked to the side and gave his seat to Zhang Ran.

"Five hundred." Zhang Ran casually took out five hundred yuan and threw it on the table.

The person keeping the accounts was Teacher Jiang's brother, who happily accepted the money and flattered Zhang Ran, "You must be Teacher Zhang?"

"Hmm." Zhang Ran responded coldly, took the return gift and went outside to eat at a banquet. Because there weren't enough tables, each group would finish eating and leave, and only after the tables were cleared would the next group be allowed to eat.

The meal was almost entirely vegetarian, with only one or two bowls of meat. Even so, the food was almost gone as soon as it was served, and some people who couldn't grab it with chopsticks simply used their hands.

Zhang Ran was amazed and regretted coming to the banquet. She quickly ate a few bites, then made an excuse to leave and return to school. Luckily, Fu Qin and the others were still eating, so she immediately joined them.

Teacher Jiang's death was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that quickly subsided, and the village returned to its former tranquility.
