Chapter 80 Spring Peach
Unlike the gravel road of Ge San's house, the yard is very dilapidated, but it doesn't look messy at all. It looks like someone has carefully tidied it up.

Before entering the house, I heard a slightly deep voice coming from inside the house, accompanied by bursts of coughing, "Cough, cough, cough, Chuntao? Is that you?"

As soon as Chuntao heard the cough, she hurriedly ran into the house. Seeing this, Jiang Zhimiao and the others quickened their pace, passed through the main room, and went directly to the east wing.

The east wing room is not large, with only a bed and two large solid wood boxes. The solid wood boxes are painted and dark red, but judging from the locks on the outside, they are quite old.

As soon as he entered, he saw a slender middle-aged man hunched against the wall. Heart-rending coughs came from his mouth, and his complexion became paler with each cough.

Seeing someone come in, Li Gensheng coughed, slowly stood up, looked at Chuntao, and asked doubtfully: "Chuntao, what are they?"

Seeing that he was coughing, Chuntao's face turned red, and her clear eyes were filled with moisture. She stepped forward and put him down, and introduced the visitor, "Dad, please lie down first. This is the new guy in the village." Villagers, you want to buy some food from us."

After finishing his words, Li Gensheng's eyes drifted to look at the faces of Jiang Zhimiao and Jiang Zhimiao for a moment. Seeing this, Jiang Zhimiao clasped his hands together in front of his chest to make a bow, and said with a warm smile:

"Hello, uncle, we are prisoners who were placed in Tianshui Village. We have just arrived and we don't have any food left in our hands. No, I just wanted to ask you to buy some food. I hope it can be convenient for you, uncle."

Li Gensheng understood, and was about to say something. Unexpectedly, before the words came out, he coughed twice violently, and his voice was somewhat hoarse due to the coughing. "There is nothing inconvenient, cough cough cough, Chuntao, hurry up, go to the west end room and get some food."

Chuntao received the order, took the cloth bag from Jiang Zhimiao's hands, and ran to the west end room in a hurry.

There was another cough, and the two heard Li Gensheng say: "They are all from the village. There is no need to buy them. You can just eat them. If they are not enough, come back and get them again."

Jiang Zhimiao waved his hands hurriedly, and after a moment, he said with a smile: "Uncle, you can have as much as you want. If you are so polite, then I will not dare to take your food."

Wen Zhuqing nodded and then said: "Yes, uncle, there is no reason for freeloading in this world. If you are so polite again, we really don't dare to stay here anymore."

Seeing his face as pale as paper and his thin body, Jiang Zhimiao asked in confusion: "Uncle, what disease do you have? How can you cough so badly?"

After listening to these words, Li Gensheng was depressed for a while, and sighed heavily, "It's not a serious illness, it's just that I was frozen by the rain last night. Ahem, cough, cough, working in the fields in the early years hurt my roots and left the root of the disease. , this cold, I started coughing again."

Jiang Zhimiao started to think thoughtfully after hearing these words. Seeing that he was not very old, only about 35 or [-] years old, he was such a pitiful person that he had his roots damaged at such a young age.

A few people exchanged pleasantries. After a while, the conversation stopped, and only the sound of coughing could be heard in the room.

Seeing that he was coughing so violently, it was probably hurting his heart. It was freezing cold right now, and there was no charcoal basin or anything in the house. Every word he said was tormenting him. So and so, it was better not to say anything. as well.

About a quarter of an hour later, Chuntao, her face flushed, dragged two bags of grain towards the east house with difficulty. As soon as she heard the sound of the bags rubbing against the ground, Wen Zhuqing hurriedly ran to her and took the bags from her hand. Picked it up.The two bags weighed almost 30 kilograms in total, and it would be troublesome for an ordinary woman to drag them around, let alone a female doll.

Seeing a little sweat on her forehead, Jiang Zhimiao took out a handkerchief from his clothes, bent slightly and wiped it gently.

Facing a pretty face, Chuntao's dark little face blushed and she said timidly: "Thank you, thank you sister."

Jiang Zhimiao straightened up, rubbed her messy forehead casually, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, it's us who want to thank you. If you hadn't brought us here, we wouldn't have been able to buy food. Thanks to you. We don’t have to go hungry, it’s sister who should thank you.”

Holding the patched cotton coat in her hands, Chuntao timidly raised her eyes to glance at Jiang Zhimiao, but quickly looked back. After a moment, she met her eyes and showed a slightly shy smile.

Seeing her staring at him intently, Chuntao scratched her head uncomfortably and smiled wider, "Sister, it's cold here, let's go inside quickly." Jiang Zhimiao nodded, and then followed her into the east room. .

Businesses related to money still have to go through adults. In the final analysis, Chuntao's father is the one who has the right to speak. Chuntao is still young, so she can feel at ease only if the money is given to adults.

Before I even stepped into the house, I heard a heartbreaking cough that made me want to cough my lungs out. Not only that, the violent cough was accompanied by bursts of retching, which was worse than any previous cough. Everything that comes is more violent.

Listening to the coughing, the two quickened their pace and quickly entered the house.

The first thing he saw was Wen Zhuqing standing next to Li Gensheng, patting his back. Jiang Zhimiao's eyes moved to the man's face, and blood flowed down the corner of his mouth. It was shocking to see.

Chuntao screamed, stepped forward and pulled Li Gensheng's wrist, crying heartbreakingly, "Dad, dad, what's wrong with you, don't scare me, dad, dad, Chuntao is so scared, dad, wu Woohoo.”

Li Gensheng was drained of energy by this violent cough. He held Chuntao's hand with his backhand and said angrily: "Tao, don't cry. Dad is fine. It's just a cough. Don't cry, don't cry. Dad is fine."

Chuntao cried and shook her head, and retorted: "Dad, please don't lie to me. You've coughed up blood. You've never coughed up blood before. How could it be okay? Dad, don't die and don't leave Chuntao alone." .”

After she finished speaking, she wiped away her tears and cried: "My mother is gone, my brother is gone, and Chuntao only has dad left. Dad, if you leave, Chuntao, Chuntao will have no relatives."

Chuntao knew that coughing up blood would kill someone. Her mother coughed up blood when she gave birth to her younger brother. At that time, she sneaked in and saw the midwife when she wasn't paying attention. She first vomited a little bit of blood, and then a lot of blood. It spurted out from her mouth. Not only that, but there was blood all over her body, and she couldn't stop it no matter what.

She cried and shouted and wiped it with a handkerchief, but she couldn't wipe it all off. As soon as she finished wiping her mouth, another spurt came out from under her body. She only remembered that it was a very dark night, and her mother died not long after. There is her unborn brother in her belly.

Dad said that they just went to a far away place and would come back again, but after so long, she had never seen them come back. Dad was lying. If he died, he would never come back again, never again.
