Reborn 99 Days Later, Becoming a Landlady and Getting into Tsinghua and Peking Universities

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect Aunt Jiang to be like this... She wasn't like this before." Pei Yi'an felt a little guilty.

Hua Lichu asked curiously, "How do you know her?"

Pei Yi'an glanced at Hua Antao, and a blush rose again on her wheat-colored face:

“I… my maternal grandparents are from this village. I come here often and have helped Aunt Jiang a few times.”

Therefore, Aunt Jiang didn't have a good life because of her senior's situation; everyone in the village ostracized her..."

Hua Antao frowned: "Didn't they receive a large sum of money from Gao Juan? Logically speaking, their family should be doing quite well, right?"

She looked around.

Although this place is considered an urban village, it is convenient to go anywhere, but nowadays people take pride in living in apartment buildings.

Jiang Shuiying received such a large sum of money, there's no reason for her to stay here. She could easily use the money to buy a house in a more prosperous neighborhood.

Thinking of the skinny little girl who came in after her.

Hua Antao felt her doubts deepen.

Upon Hua Antao's question, Pei Yi'an quickly recounted everything he had learned.

"It's true that they received that hush money, but the money never actually ended up in Aunt Jiang's hands."

Aunt Jiang's husband is a gambler.

I heard that Aunt Jiang insisted on conducting an in-depth investigation.

But during private mediation, her husband was tempted by the prospect of receiving a large sum of hush money if the case was dropped.

"and then?"

Hua Lichu glanced at Pei Yi'an's bright red ears and quietly stepped between the two.

Pei Yi'an gave Hua Lichu a flattering smile: "Later, her husband drugged her at home and secretly took the money."

When Aunt Jiang woke up, the case had already been dropped.

Her husband also gambled away the money.

Some villagers felt that the senior's suicide had a negative impact, while others thought the Jiang family was greedy for money...

In addition, Aunt Jiang's husband was a compulsive gambler, and everyone wanted to kick him while he was down.

I'm sorry, I brought you here in a hurry without understanding the situation, which made you waste half a day.

"How about I talk to Aunt Jiang again in the next few days? You can come over after we've talked it out?"

Pei Yi'an felt a little guilty.

He has been observing Hua'an peaches for half a month.

I know that the two sisters have very tight schedules every day.

Hua Antao waved her hand casually: "How can you blame yourself? We should be thanking you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to find this place so quickly."

Upon hearing this, Pei Yi'an, who had been somewhat uneasy, instantly grinned widely, scratching the back of his head with a憨厚 smile: "Really?"

“Really,” Hua Antao said sincerely.

Hua Lichu inexplicably felt that Pei Yi'an's smile was a little dazzling.

In fact, it's a bit provocative.

To be fair, the fact that Darlie toothpaste didn't hire this guy as their spokesperson really was a waste of his amazing white teeth.

……

The next day, Hua Lichu and Hua Antao arrived at Jiang Shuiying's doorstep again.

However, they weren't the only ones who came together.

After a familiar knock, Jiang Shuiying came and opened the door.

Upon seeing that it was the Hua Li Chu sisters, her delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly, forming a deep frown.

"I don't have what you want here, you should leave now."

Hua Lichu braced herself against the door: "Auntie, can we have two minutes? We'll leave as soon as we finish speaking."

Hua Antao pushed Yang Ying, who was behind her, in front of Jiang Shuiying.

“Auntie, she is suffering the same persecution as your daughter from Gao Juan.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuiying slowed down her actions of closing the door.

Hua Lichu seized the opportunity to squeeze through the door.

Several people entered the yard.

Hua Lichu gave Yang Ying a wink.

Yang Ying pursed her lips tightly, silently unbuttoned her school uniform jacket, and rolled up the wide sleeves.

Jiang Shuiying's eyes were fixed on Yang Ying's snow-white arm, finally settling on the needle marks.

She seemed to be looking at Yang Ying.

It's as if she's recalling something through Yang Ying.

After a long while, Jiang Shuiying let out a long sigh.

Just then, a man's curse came from inside the house.

"You damn bitch, where have you been? I'm thirsty, hurry up and bring me some water."

Immediately afterwards, the sound of a bowl breaking on the ground and the frightened cries of a little girl came from inside.

Jiang Shuiying's expression changed, and she hurriedly pushed Hua Lichu and the other two out of the courtyard.

Before closing the courtyard gate, she took a deep breath and looked at Yang Ying, saying, "Little girl, you will soon be free."

Turning to Hua Lichu, he said, "Hurry up and leave, don't come back. Things might take a turn for the better."

Then the door slammed shut.

Jiang Shuiying leaned against the door as if all her strength had left her, listening to the man's angry curses and the child's helpless cries coming from inside. She squeezed her eyes shut.

The next second, he took a deep breath and walked heavily into the house.

The three of them, Hua Lichu and her companions, who were pushed out the door, looked at each other in bewilderment.

Yang Ying, having finished putting on her school uniform, asked helplessly, "What do we do now?"

Hua Lichu felt a headache coming on when she thought of Jiang Shuiying's obvious reluctance to see them: "Let's go back first."

The group walked silently out of the village and headed towards the bus stop.

Yang Ying's timid voice broke the silence: "She... what did she mean when she said I would soon be free and things would soon take a turn for the better?"

Hua Antao shook her head.

Hua Lichu had a bad feeling.

How can Yang Ying find relief?

What is she asking for?

Both of these incidents are inextricably linked to Gao Juan.

But how can a case that was dropped and happened several years ago be overturned?

How could it immediately attract so much attention from the outside world?

She couldn't think of it.

Hua Lichu felt a little confused, even a little lost.

She didn't know what to do.

Since her rebirth, she has been single-mindedly focused on making money with her sister and going to high school.

But when faced with a crisis, she realized how insignificant she was.

No, this isn't the first time.

She felt just as helpless after her older sister's accident in her past life.

She has to do something.

But... what can she do?

The three of them boarded the bus, found a window seat, and sat down. Compared to when they arrived, their eyes showed more confusion and doubt.

The holiday passed in the blink of an eye.

Even if you feel lost, you still have to go to school.

During the morning physics class, Gao Juan made no attempt to hide her hatred for the Hua Lichu and Hua Antao sisters.

Within just 40 minutes, the two of them were ignited 4 or 5 times.

She found a question that was way beyond the curriculum and deliberately made the two sisters answer it.

The two sisters couldn't answer, and were immediately met with her sarcastic remarks.

"Your homeroom teacher said she had high hopes for you. Hmm, even the pigs in my family's pigsty are smarter than you guys!"

"You can't even do such a simple question? And you still want to go to college? When I was your age..."

Just then, several people in uniforms appeared at the door.

He showed his identification and asked, "Hello, is Gao Juan here?"

We now understand that you are connected to a suicide case from several years ago. Please cooperate with our investigation and come with us.
