Chapter 403
When they met Tang Lanhua in the village, they would kindly counsel her, telling her not to worry about going to college, but to live a good life with her husband and raise her two children well. They also said that if she could get into college, as long as she raised her children well, her children would definitely be able to get into college too, helping her fulfill her dream.
Every time Tang Lanhua heard these words of advice from the villagers, she just smiled and said nothing.
During the Chinese New Year, Tang Lanhua and her husband brought their two children to visit the villagers to wish them a happy new year. The villagers thought that Tang Lanhua had come to terms with it and didn't think much about it.
But one day, the door of Tang Lanhua's house was closed and not opened all day. No one was seen coming out, and no movement was heard from inside.
The next day, the villagers felt it was strange and called the team leader to come and take a look.
The captain knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered, so he broke in.
After opening the door, everyone found that the three adults and two children of Tang Lanhua's family were lying on the ground, their faces were purple, their bodies were cold and stiff, and the house was in a mess.
After the villagers reported the incident to the police, they arrived quickly.
After some investigation, the police found that Tang Lanhua was missing and the money in the house was also missing. The police naturally identified Tang Lanhua as a suspect.
Soon, the police discovered that Tang Lanhua first took a car, then took a train, and went to Hsinchu City.
The police then came to Zhuda to arrest Tang Lanhua.
Faced with the accusations of the police, Tang Lanhua confessed and admitted that she had poisoned her husband's family and two children, and came to Zhuda with the family's money.
If the police could understand Tang Lanhua's hatred for her husband's family, they could not understand why Tang Lanhua was so cruel as to harm her own children.
Tang Lanhua said calmly, "I poisoned my husband, my mother-in-law, and my father-in-law. I'm sure I'll be arrested. What will happen to my two children if I'm arrested? If my husband's relatives adopt them, they certainly won't treat them well. Rather than letting them live a life of dependence and being looked down upon, it's better for them to die."
"But they are just children, and you ended their lives just like that!" A police officer said excitedly, very confused.
Tang Lanhua remained calm. "Even if I hadn't poisoned my husband and his family, what's the point of them living like this? What's the point of me living like this? I could have had a different future, but because my husband, my mother-in-law, and my father-in-law were afraid I wouldn't want them after graduating from college, they took me back, locked me up, and forbade me from studying. My own life is meaningless, so why would I care whether other people's lives are meaningful?"
Tang Lanhua confessed to her crimes, and the case became much easier to handle.
However, when Tang Lanhua was confessing her guilt, the police discovered that she was pregnant for just over two months.
Upon hearing the news, Tang Lanhua was obviously stunned, and then she laughed a little crazily.
Just when the public security comrades suspected that Tang Lanhua had known she was pregnant and deliberately committed a crime during her pregnancy in order to delay her imprisonment, Tang Lanhua hit her head against the wall and died in the prison where she was being guarded...
When the news of Tang Lanhua's death reached the school, the entire dormitory 205 fell silent.
Tang Lanhua's uneaten snacks were still on her desk, and her new clothes, which she had only worn once, were thrown on her bed, as if they were waiting for their owner to come back. However, Tang Lanhua would never come back.
"She is really pregnant. I was just saying it casually at the time." Wu Qiaoer whispered.
"She hit her head against the wall and died with the baby in her belly. She didn't want to live at all, nor did she want the baby in her belly to live," said Zhang Huiyun.
"She's poisoned so many people, she must be dead. Even if she gave birth to the baby, who would raise it?" Yang Lu said, "Besides, she was so cruel as to poison her husband's family. She must hate him deeply in her heart, and she probably doesn't like the baby in her belly."
Li Juxiang said, "I heard she was an educated youth sent to the countryside. She found farm work too hard to earn work points, so she voluntarily married her husband. Since she married a local, she should have known that even if the educated youth could one day return to the city, her husband would definitely not let her go. What's the point of her hating her husband? Wasn't this her own choice?"
"That's true, but..." Zhang Huiyun wanted to say something, but she was so depressed that she couldn't utter a word. She could only sigh deeply.
Ye Fuyue was in the same situation. She couldn't say anything. She just felt like a huge stone was pressing on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Li Juxiang glanced at the snacks on Tang Lanhua's desk and asked, "What should we do with all that food?"
Ye Fuyue and the others looked at Tang Lanhua's desk without saying anything. No one was in the mood to think about this issue at the moment.
Seeing that no one said anything, Li Juxiang licked her lips and mustered up the courage to continue, "How about we share it?"
Yang Lu glanced at Li Juxiang in disbelief and said gloomily, "I won't eat it."
Li Juxiang looked embarrassed and said, "It's a waste to keep it here. I bought those things with money and tickets. It's a waste to keep it like this. It's a waste of food."
Yang Lu said impatiently: "If you want to eat it, eat it yourself. I won't eat it."
"I don't want to eat either." Ye Fuyue said.
Wu Qiaoer continued, "I don't want to eat it either."
Zhang Huiyun also shook her head: "I don't want to eat."
Li Juxiang said awkwardly, "You guys aren't eating, so I'm the only one eating? Are you afraid those things are unlucky?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense!" Yang Lu was very impatient: "If you want to eat, eat by yourself. Don't drag us into this, and don't use us as an excuse."
Li Juxiang shrank her neck and kept silent.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she went to Tang Lanhua's desk. Just as she was about to take away all the snacks on the table, she thought of something. She clasped her hands together and whispered, "Comrade Tang Lanhua, forgive me, I just don't want to waste these foods. You don't mind, do you?"
After muttering, she bowed three times towards Tang Lanhua's desk before taking away all the snacks on the table.
As for Tang Lanhua's other belongings in the dormitory, Ye Fuyue had no idea how they were disposed of. She only knew that one day, after returning from class, she found Tang Lanhua's desk and bed empty, devoid of anything. She asked the others in the dormitory, but they didn't know who had cleaned them out either. They didn't see who had cleaned them out, but everyone guessed it was probably the dorm manager.
The empty desk and bed were as if Tang Lanhua had never appeared in their dormitory, or in the school...
…
As time passed, everyone gradually forgot about Tang Lanhua, and the same was true for Ye Fuyue.
One Sunday during the break, Ye Fuyue returned to the compound and found a gray puppy in the house.
