That hand was like a dry bone.
The situation is even more serious than two years ago when Grandma Zhang fainted from hunger.
"Stop working, girl... I know I won't live long, so let's... let's not waste the money or the time!" said Grandma Zhang.
"Don't waste money. Brother Jianguo has a high salary at work, and we have enough money to treat your illness. I have money myself, enough to treat your illness." Li Jinfeng shook her head desperately.
"Silly girl, I... my own body, how could I not know it? These past few days, I keep thinking about the past, thinking about... cough cough..."
As Grandma Zhang spoke, she began to cough.
Li Jinfeng took out a handkerchief from her pocket and prepared to wipe the old lady's face. Grandma Zhang pushed her hand away and said, "Girl, this disease... is... contagious. Don't get too close to me."
"Grandma Zhang...I'm not afraid!" Li Jinfeng still held Grandma Zhang's hand tightly.
Grandma Zhang used her other hand to fumble for a long time, found an old handkerchief from the bedside, and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Although it was a bit difficult, he still did not forget to speak.
"I saw Xiaobao's grandfather. He asked if I wanted to go with him, and I agreed... After I agreed, I remembered that Xiaobao was still so young. What would happen to him... If I, an old woman, die, what will happen to Xiaobao..."
"Grandma Zhang, don't get excited, you will be fine! Didn't you say you wanted to watch Xiaobao grow up, watch him go to school, watch him get married and have children?" Li Jinfeng tried to calm Grandma Zhang.
"I can't wait any longer... I can't wait any longer!" The old lady's tears flowed more and more from the corners of her eyes, and blood began to seep out from the corners of her mouth.
"Grandma Zhang..."
Before Li Jinfeng could finish her words, Grandma Zhang suddenly grabbed her hand and said, "Jinfeng girl, I can only beg you... Help me. Xiaobao... I can't trust anyone with Xiaobao. Take him away, please... please!"
"Grandma Zhang, I'll take Xiaobao away! But you have to get better soon. Then I'll take you and Xiaobao to live in Jiangbei together, okay? My room and Brother Jianguo's room are the largest in the entire courtyard. It won't be a problem if we have two of you and two of Xiaobao living here." Li Jinfeng said.
Grandma Zhang smiled.
She also wanted to leave here, but... she no longer had the chance.
Xiaobao, who was standing next to him, had already cried until he was hoarse.
I didn't even have the strength to speak.
"Xiaobao... come here..." Grandma Zhang waved.
Zhang Xiaobao, with tears in his eyes, walked to the bedside, "Grandma..."
"Don't cry, you are a man... a man. Do you still remember what grandma said to you?" Grandma Zhang asked.
"I remember... I remember!" Zhang Xiaobao nodded while crying.
"Then tell grandma again... tell her again. I'm afraid you'll forget." said Grandma Zhang.
Zhang Xiaobao's voice trembled, "From now on... from now on, you must listen to Sister Jinfeng and treat her... treat her as your own sister. Treat her well..."
Li Jinfeng's eyes also turned red, and tears as big as beans rolled down.
"And...what else?"
"Study hard, and if you have the chance in the future, you must go to university. You must make a name for yourself, you must... remember the Zhang family's past, and you must not bring shame to them!"
"Okay..." Grandma Zhang smiled with satisfaction.
While waiting for Li Jinfeng to come back, Grandma Zhang said these words to Xiaobao every day, and she wanted Xiaobao to remember them.
"Grandma Zhang..." Li Jinfeng looked at the old lady.
