"I know...you will forgive me, but if I can see you one last time before I die, I will die with my eyes closed."
When saying this, Old Liu's speech was intermittent, and she even tried hard to stretch out her hand.
However, she was unable to perform even such a simple action.
At first, Zhang Zifu reached out his hand for her and wanted to hold his body, but he saw Old Liu's finger pointing at Zhang Zixuan in the distance.
"Zixuan...I...mother...mother is sorry for you, sorry for Jianxiu, sorry, sorry..."
After saying several things in a row, Old Liu had already gasped for breath.
Maybe I talked too much at once, and I felt so weak that it seemed as if the air was only going out but not coming in.
But even so, she still insisted on finishing what she was saying.
"I'm sorry, mother... When I first picked you up, I had a lot of things, but I lost them all...lost them..."
"Mom... I still remember... your... rosy and round face when I brought you home. At that moment, mom really loved you..."
"When I brought you home, I swore to myself that I would treat you well and raise you like my own son, but I didn't do it..."
"I'm biased, sorry, sorry..."
Old Liu didn't continue the conversation because she was already speaking out of excitement.
Jian Xiu at the side clenched her hands, but finally did not move forward.
Given Mrs. Liu's current condition, even if she was fed medicine, it would be of no help.
Besides, based on what she had done before, it was not worth it for her to use the potion to save her.
Just as he was thinking this, he discovered that Old Liu's gaze was fixed on himself.
Jian Xiu did not go directly to her bed like they did.
She just stood in her current position, looking down at Old Liu.
She knew very well that Old Liu had not lied to them about her illness to trick them back, and that she was indeed terminally ill at this moment.
But this only means that he did not deceive himself this time, which means that he can erase all the things he did before.
"Jian Xiu, I know I've been sorry for you. I... don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. I just hope you... can treat Zilu and Ziyi well in the future."
Having said this, she looked at Wang Xiuying and said in the same tone:
"And the same goes for Fei Mo. Please take good care of them for me... Daya, Xiaoya... Feifang, and Feilan... Feilan..."
"Mom heard that they are going to take the children's exam soon, I'm afraid... I won't have the chance to see them enter the exam room..."
Looking at Old Liu like this, Wang Xiuying looked at Jian Xiu who was standing motionless beside her, and finally sighed and leaned against the wall.
He held her bony and trembling right hand and said:
"Let the past be the past. As long as we live well in the future, that's all, right?"
Her tone wasn't very good, but it wasn't too bad either, and her words were very stiff.
It was as if he was stating something that happened normally, and he didn't have the slightest intention of comforting Old Liu.
However, even with such words, Old Liu was content to hear them.
In fact, she should have been content when they stepped into this bedroom.
Looking at Old Liu whose eyes were gradually turning white, Jian Xiu finally nodded, "Yes, they will take the Tongkat Ali Exam in a few days."
With just such a simple sentence, the corners of Old Liu's mouth curled up.
Even if it was a very simple smile, Jian Xiu still saw it.
She knew that this should be Old Liu's last smile in this world.
So he said firmly again: "Let them go, we will take good care of them."
This is a promise, and also a comfort to Old Liu, a promise that will allow her to leave this world peacefully.
Things had come to this point, and this was the biggest concession she could make.
Being able to say these words to her at this time, she actually didn't forgive her completely, but she had let it go deep down.
"Okay... okay..."
Old Mrs. Liu said several good words in a row, as if she had a lot more to say.
However, after opening the mouth, the sound came out.
Seeing this, Zhang Tianyi, who was standing behind them, hurriedly walked towards the door...
Just as I walked out of the door, I saw Zhang Zirong and Fang Miaojuan coming back from the fields.
So without thinking, he quickly said to the two of them: "Dad and Mom, come quickly, come quickly... Grandma..."
Before Zhang Tianyi finished speaking, Zhang Zirong and Fang Miaojuan quickly put down their hoes.
He hurriedly walked towards Old Liu's bedroom, and at the same time, he asked Zhang Tianyi:
"Where are your third and fourth uncles? Have you called them? If you really want to, go and..."
He didn't continue with the rest of the conversation because he was already looking at the four people in front of the bed.
"Third and fourth brothers, you are finally here. How is mother? She keeps talking about you..." Zhang Zirong asked first.
In fact, he still felt a little embarrassed when he saw the two brothers.
But no matter how embarrassing it was, it was overshadowed by Mrs. Liu's current illness.
He was only thinking about Old Liu's condition, so why would he care about his own embarrassment?
Zhang Zixuan and Zhang Zifu ignored Zhang Zirong and just gave up their seats in front of the bed.
They themselves knew that Old Liu's days were numbered.
At this time, Jian Xiu also looked towards the door, except for Zhang Zirong and Fang Miaojuan who just came in.
Zhang Zihua and Chen Sixi, who were supposed to be in the room, were not there.
Obviously, the rumors above are probably 80% true.
But when she came in just now, she clearly saw that there was still someone in the room.
After they came in for a while, she seemed to see a hurried figure running out.
If she guessed correctly, Zhang Zihua should still live in this yard after he was released from prison.
I have separated from my eldest wife, but I haven't moved out yet.
In this respect, compared with them and the third room at that time, this first room was much luckier than them.
At least after the eldest and second wives separated, they still had a roof over their heads.
