After being murdered by my whole family, I was reborn

Chapter 1859 Why did you shave your head like that?

At first, Fu Qin didn't understand what she meant. Ten minutes later, she looked at Zhang Ran, who had shaved her head, and opened her mouth in disbelief: "...Why did you shave your head like this?" She asked indignantly, "Did the boss do it on purpose? I'm going to settle the score with him!"

Her voice wasn't quiet, so the boss naturally heard her and quickly protested, "It wasn't me, it was her own request! I tried to persuade her, saying that a young girl with a buzz cut looks like a boy, but she insisted on it, so you can't renege on your promise."

"It has nothing to do with the boss, it was my own request," Zhang Ran explained with a smile, turning around in front of Fu Qin and winking teasingly, "Isn't he handsome?"

Zhang Ran is tall and slender, but her singing is terrible, with a rough and hoarse voice. If you didn't see her and only heard her voice, you'd think she was a man. Now, with a buzz cut and a black and gray androgynous outfit, she looks like a tall, handsome man.

Fu Qin's heart pounded as she looked at Zhang Ran, and she was a little afraid to meet her gaze. She nodded and praised, "He really is very handsome." She couldn't help but step forward and take Zhang Ran's arm, whispering, "If you were a man, I would definitely marry you."

The boss was stunned by the two's affectionate behavior and wondered if they were a young couple.

The boss was conservative and couldn't accept men with men, so naturally he couldn't accept women with women either. He took the money and quickly made them leave.

Zhang Ran and Fu Qin each had a huge suitcase, so they couldn't take one motorcycle, and instead called two.

The driver helped put the suitcase on the back seat and then took out a rope to tie it up.

The mountain road was rugged and uneven, and they were able to speed along the narrow, muddy road with its many bends. They were so skilled that they could drive with their eyes closed. On the contrary, Fu Qin was terrified. The bumpy ride made her feel nauseous, and her face gradually turned pale.

The motorcycle driver dropped the two off at the bank of a large river.

Fu Qin stared blankly at the vast river blocking her way, and angrily questioned the driver, "What kind of business is this, leaving us here?"

The driver glanced warily at the intimidating Zhang Ran before explaining to Fu Qin, "The village you're going to is just across the river, but there's no bridge. The villagers usually wade across themselves, so we can only take you this far."

"What?" Fu Qin was dumbfounded. For the thousandth time, she regretted applying to teach in the countryside, but there was no going back.

Zhang Ran gave them an extra ten yuan for the fare, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered one to each of the two drivers, smiling as he tried to get information out of them: "Is the river deep? Are there any boats?"

Seeing how capable Zhang Ran was, the two drivers eagerly told her, "Don't be fooled by how big and wide this river is; it's actually very shallow. The deepest part only reaches your chest." But what they didn't mention was that people drown in this shallow river every year.

“There are no boats now. There used to be, but the people here are too poor. It costs two cents to cross the river once. Many villagers would cross the river and then refuse to pay. Over time, the boatmen stopped doing it.”

Upon hearing this, Fu Qin looked at the rushing river and her face turned pale. "Chest-deep isn't considered deep? If it reaches Zhang Ran's chest, it will submerge her head!"

Zhang Ran thought for a moment and took out another hundred yuan. "Whoever is willing to help me find the boatman, this hundred yuan is theirs."

While one was still hesitating, the other snatched the hundred yuan from Zhang Ran's hand, saying, "You wait here, I'll go and call the old man over to row you across the river."

The driver who robbed the money got on his motorcycle and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

The other driver also got on his motorcycle and left.
