Lin Pu didn't know where he was wrong.

"Mother—"

"Needless to say!" Old Madam Lin waved her hand impatiently, "Let's all go out, I'm tired!" ”

Gan had no choice but to pull her out.

"There are some troubles at home for a while, and I will help you persuade your mother in two days." Gan soothed, "If you can't leave for a while, don't worry." ”

Lin Pu could only nod helplessly, said a few more words, and went to visit Aunt Liu.

"Is Aunt Liu sick?" Lin Jiaruo asked Xu Jiaoning.

Not to mention that she didn't pay attention, it seems that she hasn't seen Aunt Liu for a long time.

Aunt Liu didn't have much sense of existence, but when she used to stand beside Mrs. Lin and serve, Lin Jiaruo often ignored her, so she couldn't remember how long she hadn't seen her.

Xu Jiaoning nodded and said, "I've been sick for more than half a year!" ”

Since last spring, Aunt Liu has been lingering on the sickbed, even if Mrs. Lin doesn't bring her, she won't live long.

Lin Jiaruo thought carefully about this grandfather's aunt, but no matter how she thought about it, it was just a vague outline.

I remember that she is a sick and weak woman, not the good-looking weakness of Aunt Bai, but the weakness of the real yellow face and thin muscles, such a bad look, Lin Jiaruo doesn't like to look at it very much.

But when she mentioned it, she suddenly wanted to go and see Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu lived in a west-facing hut behind Ciyin Hall, next to the small Buddha Hall.

Lin Jiaruo came in the afternoon, Lin Pu was invited to eat and chat, and Mrs. Lin also rested, so she touched it.

It's cold outside in winter, Aunt Liu's two maids are probably hiding in the house, the door is quiet, Lin Jiaruo didn't have the intention of being a thief, but at the moment he has a feeling of being a thief.

Aunt Liu was sitting in the house not far from the door, and it seemed that she was sewing something in the skylight.

Lin Jiaruo's arrival blocked her light, so she looked up and shouted "Four girls" in surprise.

Aunt Liu is the same as in her memory, very thin and not good-looking, but her complexion is fine.

But her expression was quite gentle, so after she asked, "Is there anything wrong with the fourth girl", Lin Jiaruo replied kindly and generously: "It's okay, I just came to see you, I heard that you are sick?" ”

Aunt Liu smiled and looked very happy: "The fourth girl is really a good child, and I don't have anything, it's just that in winter, my body can't stand the cold, just wait for the weather to warm up!" ”

Lin Jiaruo smiled shyly, and said in a concerned tone: "Then you have to take care of your body, we are going to the capital after the New Year, the capital is far away, the road will be very tired, you are not in good health, it will be very uncomfortable!" ”

Aunt Liu smiled even more happily: "The fourth girl is right, I must take care of it." ”

After saying a few words, it was not so strange, Lin Jiaruo seemed to think that she looked a little better, so she moved into the house to see the work in her hands.

"What are you doing? Is this a sock? Lin Jiaruo asked.

Aunt Liu's eyebrows were soft, and she said softly: "Yes, Miss Zijun is pregnant, I always want to do something for the child, but it's a pity that my body is not angry, and I can't make small clothes and shoes, so let's cut a few pairs of small socks for the child——"

She showed the half-made small socks in her hand to Lin Jiaruo, and asked expectantly, "Do you touch it, are you comfortable to wear?" Will Miss Zijun like it? ”

Lin Jiaruo took it in his hand, touched it seriously, raised his head and was about to answer.

Aunt Liu suddenly skimmed her face, grabbed a handkerchief from the small table next to her, gagged her mouth, and coughed violently.

Lin Jiaruo looked at her at a loss.

coughed for a while before stopping, Aunt Liu let out a sigh of relief and took off the veil-

Lin Jiaruo stood up with a "pout", pointed to the handkerchief, his eyes were big and round, and tears welled up in an instant: "Blood, blood, you, you coughed up blood!" Coughing up blood! ”

Without waiting for Aunt Liu to react, she ran out like a fly.

Aunt Liu looked at the pool of red on the handkerchief in astonishment, and suddenly realized.

When she got up early, because she was worried that Lin Man was coming today, she saw that her face was not good, so she used some fat powder and accidentally dipped some rouge on the handkerchief......

The fourth girl seems to have misunderstood something......

Aunt Liu smiled and shook her head, what a cute child, I hope Zijun's child is so cute!

An hour later, the lovely child appeared in front of her with a foreign man.

Fortunately, she also knows this foreign man.

Aunt Liu hurriedly put down the needle and thread in her hand and stood up, and asked in a panic, "What's going on?" For the Chinese New Year, why did the four girls invite Dr. Wen? ”

It is very unlucky to invite a doctor during the Chinese New Year, if Mrs. Lin knows about it, she and Lin Jiaruo will have to be scolded.

Doctor Wen looked at her twice, and asked thoughtfully, "Is it Aunt Liu coughing up blood?" ”

He was also annoyed, this little girl rushed to his house with a maid, and pulled him out without saying a word.

But as soon as he heard that someone was coughing up blood, he couldn't care much about it.

At this time, he also recognized this Aunt Liu of the Lin family, who had just come to see her a few years ago, and her body was in tatters, but the symptoms of coughing up blood were ...... No, is it getting worse a lot?

Doctor Wen's expression instantly became solemn, and Lin Jiaruo's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly replied: "Yes, yes, I saw it with my own eyes, you can take a look, how can you cough up blood?" Is it serious? What kind of disease did Aunt Liu have, and what disease would cough up blood? ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

Aunt Liu's heart suddenly moved, and she looked up at Dr. Wen suddenly.

Dr. Wen has been in and out of the inner house for many years, how could he not understand her eyes, and he was so frightened that he took a step back.

"Doctor Wen!" Aunt Liu was so excited that her voice trembled.

If she had the opportunity to stay, of course she was reluctant to leave her only daughter, not to mention her own body, how could she not know? This time, I'm afraid I'll never have the chance to see my daughter again.

Lin Jiaruo helped urge Dr. Wen unconsciously: "Take a look, what's going on?" We're about to enter Beijing, Aunt Liu can't do this! ”

Aunt Liu sat down by herself and stretched out her wrist in front of Dr. Wen.

At this time, the footsteps of Mrs. Lin also came, how could she hide such a big movement from the elders in the family?

Doctor Wen sighed heavily, and pressed his fingers on Aunt Liu's pulse.

Facing the expectant eyes of Aunt Liu and Lin Jiaruo, he raised his head, and his heavy tone came into the ears of Old Madam Lin who appeared at the door.

"Aunt Liu's crime may be - tuberculosis!"

After the Lantern Festival, the Wei family finally came with the good news of Najiri, and within a few days, the dowry was sent from Qiantang to Yuhang, and the family affairs of the Lin and Wei families were settled.

On the first day of February, under the send-off of Yuhang's relatives and friends, the Lin family embarked on the road to Beijing.

In addition to the Sun family, there is also Aunt Liu.
