Chapter 41 Wishes

A new day has begun, and everyone is busy with their own affairs.

Grandma also sat in the yard, enjoying the rare sunshine.

Seeing that the weather was good and the sun was shining, Guo Sufei wanted to take out the quilts and mattresses at home to dry. She first hanged the quilts in her house and Zhang Xiaolong and the others on the ropes, and then went to her grandmother's cottage to clean up the quilts of her grandmother and Zhang Xiaohua. But after she walked into the cottage for a while, the family outside heard her screaming out, and grandmother's ear pointed and said, "What's going on? Sufei." Then Guo Sufei's voice came from the room: "It's okay, mom, there's a mouse."

Zhang Cai, who was fiddling with the farm tools, smiled and said, "It's so ridiculous that people are so old, why are you still afraid of that little thing?"

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua jumped over and said, "Mom, where are the rats? I'll help you, I'm the best at catching rats."

But he ran into the room and saw his mother sitting beside his grandmother's kang, holding her grandmother's quilt in her hand, and was sobbing in a low voice. When Zhang Xiaohua saw this scene, she walked over carefully and asked her mother in a low voice: "What's wrong, mother?"

Guo Sufei sobbed weakly and did not speak.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at the quilt in her mother's hand, and then she realized that there was a black piece on the head of the quilt. Zhang Xiaohua didn't understand what was going on, so she asked her mother again: "Mom, why are you holding the quilt? Isn't it just dirty? I'll wash it for you, okay?"

Listening to her son's well-behaved speech, Guo Sufei was even more sad. She suppressed her sobs in front of her and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaohua, this quilt is not dirty, it is the blood coughed out by your grandmother."

Zhang Xiaohua felt a "buzzing" sound in her head, and she was stunned at that time. He quickly asked, "Then, is grandma going to die?"

Guo Sufei listened to her son Tong Yan Wuji's words, and felt like she had eaten coptis chinensis in her heart, saying, "Good son, my mother doesn't know."

Zhang Xiaohua cried and said, "I don't want my grandmother to die."

Guo Sufei stretched out her arms and hugged her son in her arms. She stroked her hair with her other hand and said, "Mom doesn't want to do it either, but look at Xiaohua, she is about to catch up with her mother. Her mother is old, grandma, she will leave us sooner or later."

Zhang Xiaohua was almost crying and said, "I don't want to grow taller, mom, I don't want my grandmother to leave me."

Guo Sufei had already resisted sobs, hugged her son, and sighed in a low voice.

Zhang Xiaohua thought of Liu Qian's words at this time, and he asked: "Mother, Sister Liu told me that there are immortals who can live forever. If you find them, will your grandmother not leave us?"

Guo Sufei said: "Maybe, Xiaohua, that's what the story says, but no one has seen a god."

Zhang Xiaohua said: "Then I'll go find the gods and ask them to save their grandmother."

Guo Sufei said lovingly: "Good boy."

Then he looked at his son, his extremely clear eyes, his anxious expression, and said, "No one knows where the gods are, where are you looking for them? And it's too late to find them now. You might as well accompany your grandmother and let her listen to your voice more."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua nodded vigorously, as if she really understood.

At this time, Zhang Cai outside shouted: "Xiaohua, did the mouse beat it?"

Guo Sufei also shouted: "I've run away, where can I go to fight?"

Then, she said to Zhang Xiaohua: "Let's go out, but don't cry anymore when you go out, don't let your grandma know."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and agreed.

Guo Sufei walked out of the cottage with her bedding in her arms, and Zhang Xiaohua walked behind with her head down.

Guo Sufei went to dry the bedding, and Zhang Xiaohua walked to her grandmother and said, "Grandma, are you thirsty? I'll pour you some water?"

Grandma smiled and said, "Well, I'm a little thirsty. Xiaohua, go and pour some water for grandma. It's so good. Be careful, be hot."

It seemed that in my grandmother's heart, Zhang Xiaohua was still a four or five-year-old child. Zhang Xiaohua walked into the house to pour water for her grandmother.

Guo Sufei wanted to hang her grandmother's bedding in a slightly hidden place, but after thinking about it, she took a basin of water and fetched water, and wanted to clean the blood on the quilt first. When Liu Qian saw Guo Sufei wanting to wash the quilt, she hurried over to help. When she saw the stains on the quilt, she was stunned. Guo Sufei saw Liu Qian, thought for a while, and whispered: "Go and call Xiaolong and the others over, quietly."

Liu Qian nodded, and went over to make gestures to call several people. When everyone came over, they saw the stains on the quilt in the basin, and everyone stopped talking. The warm sunshine just now could not warm everyone's hearts a little.

Zhang Xiaohua brought the water to her grandmother, first tasted the water temperature with her mouth, and then put it in her grandmother's hand. Her grandmother took the water and drank it beautifully, with a smile on her face, as if she was drinking sweet honey water. Her grandmother breathed a long time and her cough was a little lighter.

Everyone felt warm when they saw this scene in the sun. The coolness in their hearts had been driven away just now. Everyone seemed to understand what they should do. They walked back to their grandmother and sat around them. While busy with their own affairs, they looked at their beloved family, wanting to deeply imprint her voice, appearance and smile into their hearts. Grandma didn't know what others were doing, but just sat on the chair with peace of mind, basking in the warm sunshine, and leaving a comfortable smile on her face, very peaceful and happy.

Guo Sufei was busy washing the bedding, drying it up, and also sat beside her grandmother, and said gently: "Mom, what do you want to eat at noon? I'll make it for you."

Grandma thought for a while and said, "Let's eat pork belly."

Guo Sufei said strangely: "Mom, don't you eat so greasy things?"

Grandma said, "I'm greedy today and want to eat some."

Guo Sufei said: "Okay, I'll go to the entrance of the village to buy some meat in a while."

Zhang Xiaolong immediately said: "Mom, I'll go, it's time for me to go out and move more."

Guo Sufei agreed, and Liu Qian continued, "I'll go with you too. Don't always carry heavy things on your arms, be careful of problems."

Zhang Xiaolong smiled and said, "Buying two kilograms of meat is enough, why can't I carry it?"

Liu Qian smiled and said nothing, so the two walked out together.

Grandma squinted her eyes, guessing that Zhang Xiaolong and the others had gone out, and then said to Guo Sufei: "Sufei, let me tell you something."

Guo Sufei said: "Okay, mom, wait a moment, I will pour you another glass of water to moisten your throat."

Guo Sufei poured another glass of water for her grandmother, and moved a stool to sit opposite her grandmother, and asked her: "Mom, what do you have to say?"

Grandma said, "Su Fei, did I vomit anything on my quilt?"

Guo Sufei was startled and immediately said, "No, mom, no, it's just a little dirty, I'll just wash it."

Grandma sighed and said, "Oh, Su Fei, you don't have to hide it from me. I vomited myself. How can I not know? I just can't be sure. If you let Xiao Cai and the others go over and see, I can hear it, and I understand it in my heart."

Guo Sufei said: "Mom, don't think too much, your cough will definitely get better."

Grandma smiled and said, "Why are you stupid kid like Xiaohua? You are in your forties and fifties, and you still comfort your mother like this."

Guo Sufei started to wipe her tears again and cried, "Mom~"

Grandma continued, "Su Fei, if you think more, birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable. When your father left, I was sad for a long time before I woke up. At that time, I silenced myself and didn't care about you. This time it was my turn, and I had to make you sad again. Oh, there is nothing I can do about it. Your father and I worked hard all my life and didn't let you live a good life. With the little talent taking care of you, I will feel at ease. Xiaolong, Xiaohu and Xiaohua are all good children. After I leave, don't let them miss me too much. I'm busy with farm work. I will ask the gods to bless you underground."

Zhang Xiaohua felt so sad when she heard this. He hugged her grandmother and said, "Grandma, don't worry, I will protect my mother."

Grandma touched Zhang Xiaohua's hair and said kindly: "I know Xiaohua must be a man when she grows up and will protect her family. I feel relieved."

Then, my grandmother said, "Su Fei, I have no wish in my life. I am satisfied to see you and Xiao Cai live comfortably and not making noise. But before leaving, I didn't see Xiaolong marrying a wife and holding a grandson, which is a bit regretful. I think Liu Qian is a very good child. You must find a way to marry her home. That is the blessing of our Xiaolong."

Everyone surrounded her grandmother. When she heard her grandmother's words, she didn't notice that the two were walking to the fence gate of the courtyard. When the two of them heard the word "Liu Qian", they both stopped and stopped, and stopped to listen carefully to what the grandmother said in the courtyard.

Guo Sufei continued: "Mom, you're right. Liu Qian is a good child. She has no choice but to do things. She has a look and figure. She can marry our family because Xiaolong gained the virtues of her previous life. But~"

Guo Sufei wanted to speak but stopped. She didn't want to disturb her mother's good dream, but there was a lot of gap between her and the Liu family. If she rashly agreed to her mother now and could not fulfill her in the future, wouldn't her mother be at ease underground?

Grandma seemed to know what she was going to say, patted Guo Sufei's hand and said, "Sufei, Liu Qian is not a child who dislikes the poor and loves the rich. If she likes our little dragon, she will already marry. Mr. Liu is well-educated and reasonable. I think he should agree. You find time to talk to Liu Qian first. If she is not interested in our little dragon, just don't force others. I heard from Xiaohua that Xiaolong's injury will be cured soon. You should also let the family go back quickly. Staying in our house is not good for Liu Qian's reputation. Although we have saved her, they have taken care of our family for such a long time. The kindness can be paid off. Mr. Liu's family in the province will also be taken care of by others."

Guo Sufei said: "Okay, mom, I will tell Liu Qian tomorrow and ask her to go home quickly."

After hearing this, my grandmother showed a hint of disappointment on her face.

At this time, someone ran in from outside and said, "Qianqian won't go home."
