Ghost husband and domineering: waiting for you to be reincarnated

Chapter 440 He's Sick

When I heard the news, I immediately felt my heart tighten, "What's wrong?"

At this juncture, what could happen to him?Could it be... He really didn't want to help me, so he made this kind of excuse?

But looking at Mrs. Wang's appearance, it doesn't seem like she is lying.

She looked at me, as if she was afraid to bring up this topic, and hesitated whether to speak or not.

How can I let her go without saying anything, and said quickly, "Sister-in-law Wang, just tell me. I came to find him for a serious matter!"

Sister-in-law Wang is not from our hometown, and of course she doesn't know my situation, but she is somewhat familiar with me because of the frequent exchanges between Zhu Zidan and me.

Therefore, she is not like others, as soon as she hears that I have something to ask for, she immediately avoids it as if she has seen the plague.

After I said that, she had no choice but to lower her voice and say, "I told you, don't tell me."

"Yeah, of course I won't say it." I nodded repeatedly.

Then Mrs. Wang said, "Actually, I don't know the details. I only know that the article was written by the husband, and people caught him in the wrong place. Although he was not arrested, he was dragged out to criticize, fight and beat him every day. Mr. His body has never even done heavy work, but now he was beaten and fell ill, and now he is still lying on the bed."

I was shocked all of a sudden.

In my eyes, Zhu Zidan is a man of culture, and even more so, a man of ability.To be able to get ahead in our small village, one must have some skills.

But I'm just a farmer in the countryside, so naturally I can't understand such things.How can someone beat you when you write an article well?

"Did he write an article cursing people?" I said so.

But he also thought it was ridiculous, even if he really wrote articles to swear at people, he wouldn't be dragged out and beaten every day, unless he dared to point at officials and scold them.However, a gentle person like Zhu Zidan would definitely not use articles as a weapon.

He is like an entertainer, his art is his words.No one or an artist will use his art to scold others.

Sister-in-law Wang didn't understand these things either, so she just said, "Perhaps your countryside is better, but in this city... the sky has changed a long time ago..."

Sighing like this, she was about to leave.

When I saw it, I stopped her again. "Sister-in-law Wang, you want to go?"

Zhu Zidan was beaten so hard that she couldn't get out of bed, why did she want to leave?
Mrs. Wang showed some shame on her face, she lowered her head and said, "Sir, this matter is getting bigger and bigger, and I'm afraid it will hurt us. So no one will be left to serve at home."

After saying this, she seemed afraid that I would ask again, so she turned around and walked away quickly.

On the empty street, a round of setting sun sinks far from the end of the street, just like my heart, sinking with it.

Like a good person like Zhu Zidan, but he ended up like this in the end?What did he do wrong?Others misunderstood him and beat him badly, but why did Mrs. Wang leave him?
I can't figure it out, at least not right now.

But I can't forget why I came to him, although at this time, my request may not be appropriate to say.

I stood in front of his house for a long, long time, thinking a lot.Finally raised his hand and knocked on the door.

No one responded—isn't he already unable to get out of bed?

Zhu Zidan's family also has a family.His mother is old, and although she is not as paralyzed as my father, she is also inconvenient to move around. At this time, she will probably not come to open the door.

As for his wife, she didn't come out to open the door at this time, which made me have new doubts in my heart.

In the end, I really couldn't wait, so I went around to the backyard and climbed over the wall.

I was afraid that someone would walk away with the basket of eggs, so I opened the courtyard door and took it in.Then he went to Zhu Zidan's house with the eggs.

I've been here many times, so I'm familiar with it.It was already night at this time, and from a distance I could only see that the lights in Zhu Zidan's room were still on.

These days, rich people have installed electric lights in their homes one after another, but Zhu Zidan has always used kerosene lamps.Said that there is no need to spend money, he is such a frugal person.

But in fact he has a lot of money.Because he is willing to treat his friends to dinner in expensive restaurants in the city. Of course, most of his friends are scholars, not peasants like me.

I was only lucky enough to go with him when someone in his family had a birthday.

The lights in Zhu Zidan's study room were on, indicating that he might not be able to get out of bed as Mrs. Wang said.I feel relieved.

"Zidan, Zidan, are you there?"

I walked over and knocked on the door of his study.

There is still a bit of uneasiness in my heart.

Why are you worried?Because I came in over the wall...

Zhu Zidan was a very polite person, and he would definitely be upset if he climbed over his wall and got in for no reason.

He recognized my voice and replied inside, "Biaozi? You're here? Cough cough..."

As soon as he said a few words, he coughed violently. After coughing for a long time, he said, "Come in by yourself, the door is not locked."

Hearing his tone, I didn't seem to blame me, so I let go of my uneasy heart.Then gently pushed open the door of his study.

Zhu Zidan was sitting at his desk writing something, covered with a thick blanket, but it was only early autumn.

What really shocked me was his expression.

The face that was originally fair and delicate like a girl's was visibly haggard at the moment, the dark circles under her eyes were as heavy as a bear's blindness, and the skin on her face was also shriveled.

He was as thin as a human skeleton.

I put down the egg in my hand and looked at him almost at a loss.

"You, what's wrong with you?" I looked at him, somewhat unacceptable that Zhu Zidan had become like this.

He is such an excellent character, how could this be?
"I...I'm fine", Zhu Zidan forced a smile at me.But it was followed by a violent cough.

"It's okay like that? Then what is it that's okay?" I stared at him and walked over to help him calm down.

Zhu Zidan just smiled and waved his hands, then looked at me and said, "Why are you here?"

Looking at his concerned eyes, I was a little bit at a loss for a while.

I've come to ask him for help.But seeing such a person, who can say something to ask him for help?
At least for me, it's a bit difficult.

"I……"

I hesitated, not knowing how to speak.

Zhu Zidan, on the other hand, coughed and said, "I heard that your father is ill. Is that why you came here? Is he better?"
