Chapter 86 Bai’s illness
  Compared with the last time she saw the two of them, Lin Ling only felt that the sunset was shining on the two of them, as yellow as pumpkin cores. She was afraid of being blown over by the wind, so she hurriedly greeted: "Come home quickly, the wind is strong."

Sister-in-law Gu's face was yellow and red, and she could hardly tell that she was ashamed. After pulling Ruirui into the house, she saw several children in the main room sharing pastries.

The sweet and heart-wrenching smell wafted out, causing her to quickly pull the child closer to her body in case the child wanted it.

Ruirui's eyes were filled with desire, but she stayed close to her mother and made no move.

Gu Yunting saw pain in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. Before the disaster, he was also a good and plump boy. Now he is obviously one year older than Xiaosi and not as tall as Xiaosi. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Ling had already entered. House.

"Give one to Ruirui." She reached directly into the oil bag.

The flower-shaped pastries pressed out of the mold come in yellow or pink colors and are very delicate.

Xiao Si's eyes followed the movement of the pastry in her mother's hand. When she saw Sister Ruirui's thin appearance, she gritted her teeth, put on a sweet smile, and showed her cute tiger teeth: "Sister Ruirui, come in and eat together."

God, what happened to Xiaosi today?
  Gu Panhui saw that the selfish Xiao Si actually took the initiative to share things, and quickly stuffed his own portion into his mouth.

Don't use his as a favor.

Li Wuniang took one, wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it away.

Gu Panxing was already an adult and didn't like sweets that much, so he just ate one and went back to his room to read.

There are three more in the oil bag.

"No need." Sister-in-law Gu wanted to refuse, but the child's hand was half extended, leaving her speechless.

"Go play with your sister." Lin Ling knelt down, put the snacks in Ruirui's hands, and asked her to follow Xiaosi.

Xiaosi took the initiative to lead her back to the room.

When she just touched the child's hand, it was really skin and bones. Lin Ling's eyes flashed with unbearable pain. When they left, he got them some food.

Gu Yunting looked away from Lin Ling: "Sister-in-law, sit at home."

"Okay." After Sister-in-law Gu sat down, she rubbed her trouser legs with both hands. Her facial features were stiff and she was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to speak.

After this entanglement, Gu Panhui and Li Wuniang brought the food to the table one after another, which made Mrs. Gu feel on pins and needles and stood up quickly: "I, I will come again tomorrow."

"Sister-in-law, just tell me what you have to say. We leave early in the morning and have dinner when we come back in the evening. It's okay if you don't want to miss the meal." Lin Ling sat down and called the third child: "Tell the brothers and sisters to eat. ."

"Okay." Gu Panhui went to call someone.

Rice and chopsticks were served quickly.

A bowl full of white rice made Mrs. Gu's eyes well up with tears, and she cried: "I, I don't want to trouble you, but my mother is sick, and I really can't spare my time to take care of the two of them. , I was just wondering if you could bring your mother to live with you."

In the past, Bai had to take care of her eldest brother, and since Gu Yunting had many children at home, she had been living at his eldest brother's house.

Sister-in-law Gu quickly explained: "I can't find my second son now, and he and Zhao Di have divorced again. I, I really have no choice. When my work becomes less, I will come and take my mother back."

She had to open her mouth.

"What are you talking about, sister-in-law? I am also your mother's son, and I should take care of you." Gu Yunting answered immediately, but subconsciously looked at Lin Ling. If she disagreed, then I'm afraid...

Lin Ling resisted the urge to roll her eyes and echoed: "This is our duty, sister-in-law, don't be embarrassed, we will go and bring mother back after dinner."

Li Wuniang, who could hear the conversation, had already turned up the fire, cooked the rice again, and brought a large bowl to fill with some tofu and lean meat.

Gu Panhui also called his sisters to sit down.

Looking at the rice and meat, Ruirui's saliva flowed down the corner of her mouth, and she quickly raised her whitened cuffs to wipe them.

"Eat, eat quickly." Lin Ling put slices of meat into Ruirui's bowl. Sister-in-law Gu's pretentiousness seemed too much at this moment, so she also took a bowl and started eating, but there was no meat and very few vegetables, just rice.

Lin Ling couldn't see it and picked up a big chopstick.

Sister-in-law Gu finished the meal with tears in her eyes. As soon as she put down the bowl, Li Wuniang took a big bowl and refilled it for her: "Auntie, eat more."

"Here……"

Sister-in-law Gu really wanted to shed her tears of grievance.

After eating, Lin Ling let the children go to bed first and then followed Gu Yunting to Gu Dashan's house.

The yard was empty, the candles were not lit, and there was an air of depression immediately.

Sister-in-law Gu led the way in the dark. After entering the house, she lit candles.

Under the dim light, an old woman lay on a single bed. She had gray hair and wrinkled skin. She barely opened her eyes when she noticed the light. She looked completely different from before.

"Mother." Gu Yunting knelt down in front of the bed, holding his mother's hand in his hands. It was frighteningly cold, and he went to breathe in a panic.

But Bai opened his mouth and bit it playfully. Unexpectedly, he almost bit off the few remaining teeth: "You're not dead yet. Why are you looking like this?"

Choking at these words, the sad atmosphere was immediately dispersed.

Gu Yunting explained the purpose of coming.

"I'm going, what will your elder brother do? How can your sister-in-law be busy alone? Besides, your house is not big enough. If you really feel sorry for me, just give me some food money." Bai glanced at Lin Ling and said, He lowered his head guiltily.

She knew she was partial, but if everyone was like this, how could she not consider it.

Lin Ling made no move. If she took the money now, Gu Yunting might think that she didn't want to take the Bai family to live at all, so she might as well wait for Gu Yunting to make his own decision.

It is not difficult to guess the meaning of these words. Gu Yunting also knew that his mother wanted to make more money so that her sister-in-law would suffer less.

The money he earned from selling rice was in his pocket. He reached in and took out a handful, estimated to be thirty or forty cents.

"Mom, take it first. I'll send it to you after you earn money in a few days."

Lin Ling also quickly put down the rice he brought: "Eat here first, we will deliver it later."

Sister-in-law Gu was embarrassed and wanted to refuse, but Mrs. Bai gave her a sideways look and shut up.

"We are all a family, and we should help each other. Your elder brother and sister-in-law are hard-working people, so it's hard for you." Ms. Bai sat up and looked up at Lin Ling: "Good boy, it's a good thing that you find your way back. You guys will do well in the future." If you have any difficulties in life, just tell your elder brother and sister-in-law, and if everyone can help, help. If Yunting bullies you, tell your mother and she will teach him a lesson."

"mother?"

Why are you so nice to Lin Ling all of a sudden? Gu Yunting didn't want to understand.

"Mom, Yunting is treating me well, don't worry." Lin Ling didn't dare to look directly at Bai. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt like she was being seen through.

It must be an illusion, otherwise I should have discovered it last time.

"Can your eldest brother's leg still be cured?" Bai suddenly asked.

Lin Ling shook her head. She was a human, not a god. Gu Dashan had been injured for many years and had become ill.

"It's getting late, let's go back."
