  Chapter 48 Sisters Meet

   squeak —

  The door was opened from the inside.

  Mu Cheng poked his head out, seeing that it was the aunt's family in disbelief, and stammered: "Auntie, you are really here."

  He thought that what the aunt said yesterday were all polite words, but he didn't think that he really came this morning.

   Liu Zhihua nodded with a smile, "Good boy, Auntie came to see your mother."

  Jiaojiao in her arms also called out: "Brother Mu Cheng~"

   "Oh, sister," Mu Cheng opened the door excitedly, welcomed the person in happily and said, "Auntie, please come in, my mother will be very happy if she knows you are here."

  Mu Cheng is sincerely grateful. The money he borrowed from his aunt yesterday will be of great use. Dad took medicine last night and woke up in the middle of the night.

  Liu Zhihua came in with Jiaojiao in her arms, and Jiaojiao peeked at Brother Mu Cheng's face, those pimples seemed to be less red and swollen, and smaller than yesterday, her face was less dull.

  The stream water is really useful, if you can soak it, it will definitely heal faster, but it is a pity that you cannot bring others into the space.

  Well, if you put its spirit whiskers in, it will definitely heal faster.

   Erya walked in following Mother, looking around carefully with her round eyes.

Compared with the grandeur on the outside, the inside is not as grand as imagined. There are some weeds growing in the yard, and there is still a faint smell of medicine. The stone platform in front of the door is covered with a layer of green moss. There are several dry cracks in the corner of the wall.

  Walking into the yard, Liu Zhihua suddenly stopped and said, "Mu Cheng, this is your Erya sister. In the basket are some things I brought for you. You take them."

   After finishing speaking, Liu Zhihua looked back at Erya, and motioned to pass the basket to Mu Cheng. She knew Xiuhua's character very well, and she would definitely not accept it when she entered the room.

   Erya rubbed her nose, stepped forward and handed the basket to Mu Cheng, saying, "My mother will give it to you, take it quickly."

  Mu Cheng looked at Er Ya's straightforward gaze, curled up his fingertips and didn't answer it, and shook his head in embarrassment, "Auntie, you have helped our family a lot, I can't ask for these things anymore."

  Liu Zhihua pretended to scold: "You child, I'm your aunt, and it's only natural to bring a door-to-door gift. You are slapping your aunt in the face for being so polite."

  Mu Cheng looked flustered, and quickly explained: "Auntie, I didn't mean that, I was"

  Erya looked at him with pimples all over his face, couldn't help but feel a little pitiful, pouted, pushed the basket into Mu Cheng's arms, and said, "My mother loves you, so just take it if you let me."

  She took a peek at the contents of the basket, and found that what Mother took were all good things, including meat and fine grains.

  Mu Cheng caught the basket subconsciously, his cheeks felt a little hot, he endured the soreness in his eyes, and didn't know what to say for a while.

  Since his father fell ill, he has seen too many people turning their faces and denying others, and also encountered too many insults and ridicules, the indifference of relatives, and the avoidance of suspicion by neighbors. In just a few days, he has recognized the good and the bad.

   "Thank you, Auntie, I..." Mu Cheng wanted to say that he would repay in the future, but he lowered his head when he reached the point of his mouth. With his appearance like this, he can't even see anyone, when will he be able to be successful.

  Liu Zhihua sighed, feeling more and more that this child is not easy, so she changed the subject and said with a smile: "Mu Cheng, Auntie hasn't seen your mother for more than ten years, and I don't know if your mother recognizes me."

  Mu Cheng heard the words, looked at the aunt and hesitated. The aunt was indeed different from the person in the painting, but he still nodded and said seriously: "My mother must recognize it."

  He was bitten by a poison when he went up the mountain, and his face was covered with these poisonous pimples. My mother could recognize him at a glance, and my father was injured and his face was covered in blood. My mother could also recognize him, so my aunt must also recognize him.

  Liu Zhihua smiled emotionally, took his hand and said: "You are right, no matter what your aunt looks like, your mother will definitely remember it."

   A group of people walked into the house,

When entering the room, there is a bitter smell of herbs, the light in the room is very dark, the windows in the room are covered with cloth, a scrawny woman is lying on the bed, Da Xia's waist is covered with a thick cloth fur blanket.

  Xiuhua heard the sound of the door opening, opened her eyes and asked weakly, "Cheng'er, is your father awake?"

  Mu Cheng quickly shook his head, "Mother, Dad is still asleep."

  Liu Zhihua's nose was sour, and tears flowed down. She put down Jiaojiao in her arms, wiped her tears and walked towards the bed.

   "Xiuhua, sister is here to see you."

Hearing the familiar voice, the woman turned around stiffly and looked over. Seeing her sister who had changed her appearance, she was about to get up from the bed with red eyes and excitement. Slow down."

   "Zhihua, cough cough, why are you here..."

  Xiuhua has a thin body, abnormally pale complexion, and no blood on her face. Because she is too thin, her facial features are very abrupt. Her neck is clearly visible through a layer of loose skin and blue veins, and her arms and hands are so thin that only bones are left.

  Liu Zhihua couldn't control her tears when she saw this, and she didn't dare to hug her hard. She carefully supported her, and hurriedly wiped her tears, not wanting Aunt Xiuhua to cry with her.

   "Mu Cheng went to find me yesterday. I thought it was a little liar, but I didn't expect it to be you."

Xiuhua took her sister's hand, touched her cracked fingers and a thick layer of calluses, she felt more and more guilty, and apologized through tears: "I'm sorry, you have a hard time and I caused you trouble... "

Liu Zhihua covered the back of her skinny hand, patted her mouth and comforted her, "What are you talking about, no one in the village is not troubled by the wind and the sun, your brother-in-law has earned some money during this time, you two can rest assured, Not enough money."

  Xiuhua heard the tears falling, shook her head hurriedly and said: "Enough is enough, you gave me four feet yesterday, and Mu Cheng's father has already woken up, so Yang Yang can go out to work."

  It was not easy for the farmer to take out four taels. She didn't even have any hope, but she didn't want her sister to lend it. She didn't sleep last night, and I don't know how many Buddhas bless her sister.

   "Cheng'er, go get your aunt some water."

   "Hey, I'll go right away."

  Mu Cheng ran out, and Xiuhua noticed the two girls on the ground. She smiled and got up, put on a thick shawl, and stood up while supporting the bed.

   "Slow down." Liu Zhihua raised her hands to protect her, for fear of falling.

  Xiuhua is thin and frail, but she walks steadily. She smiled and said, "It's okay, Zhihua, these two little girls are really handsome."

  Liu Zhihua hurriedly said to Erya and Jiaojiao, "Call Aunt Xiu."

  Erya felt that this aunt was a little scary, her dark face was a little serious, she held her sister's hand tightly, and obediently called out, "Hello, Aunt Xiu, I'm Erya."

  Jiaojiao hugged the kitten in her arms, and said in a waxy voice, "Thank you, Aunt Xiu, for sending Jiaojiao's cat."

   "Good boy, Erya Jiaojiao is really sensible, Aunt Xiu will bring you something fun."

  Xiuhua covered her mouth and let out a low cough, walked to a small dressing table beside her, opened the drawer, took out a sachet and a wooden hairpin from inside.
