Chapter 1374
Granny Li grabbed Li Pan'er and came to her. Her voice was empty.
"Pan'er, grandma... Grandma can't take care of you in the future."
"Grandma, you will be fine. I hope I can take care of myself and I want to take care of you."
"When Pan'er grows up, later..." Granny Li's words are full of breath, which makes people feel itchy and flustered.
Li Fu crowded in at this time, "Mom, if you have anything else to say, my son is listening here."
Now it's a foregone conclusion. Maybe everyone knows that Granny Li can't be saved.
In the end, we should explain the future.
Li Fu came up to Granny Li, and Granny Li did look him in the eye.
"You, you... You'll... Look forward to it, ok..."
"Mom, I know. I know. Do you have anything else to say?"
Granny Li shook her head and closed her eyes.
Li Fu was uneasy in his heart. "Mom, have you forgotten something? It's impossible for you to say that to me, isn't it?"
Granny Li did not answer.
"Ma." Li Fu refused to give up and reached out to shake the old man's arm.
Li Pan'er suddenly grabbed his hand, "Dad, don't do this."
The old man couldn't stand the toss. He was shaken and gasped. He opened his empty eyes, raised his hand and held Li Pan'er. With his last breath, he said, "good, good boy, we should live well in the future."
Finally, the old man did not survive the bleak autumn.
In the twinkling of an eye, winter came and it began to snow in the village.
It's located in a cold area. It's bound to snow every winter. Now it's only occasionally snowing. After a while, the ground will be covered with white snow.
After Granny Li's death, Li's father seemed to have a conscience that he was a little better to Li Pan'er.
Perhaps it was the old man's last words that kept him in mind. He didn't worry about Li Pan'er's going to the city.
However, it's just a little better on the basis of the original random beating and scolding, which usually causes Li Pan'er to work or something.
On this cold day, Li's husband and wife took off their clothes and threw them directly into the bucket for Li Pan'er to wash in Xiaohegou.
Li Pan'er's hands began to turn red again, because frostbite began to grow at this time of year, and it hurt even more when he touched ice water.
But she can't refuse to hold these dirty thick clothes.
Du Heng, who was next door, came to find her and quietly stuffed some biscuits for her while Li's husband and wife were away. "This is what my father brought back from the city. I hope you can eat it yourself. Don't be found by your parents."
If Li's husband and wife don't find out, the good things won't fall into Li Pan'er's mouth.
Li Pan'er carefully hid his food. After eating half of it, he was reluctant to finish it. He sealed the place where he cut it and put it under the bed.
Li and his wife came back from their work and carried a lot of sweet potatoes.
"Is the meal ready?"
"All right."
The only good thing for Li Pan'er in this family is that she doesn't have to work all day, because her small body is too weak to carry.
However, she has to do things all the time at home, such as sweeping the floor, washing clothes and cooking, which takes a lot of time. Moreover, when the adults carry the sweet potatoes back, she is also responsible for washing and cutting the sweet potatoes and cooking the pig food. These jobs are not gravity work, but coolie work.
Li's mother went outside to collect the clothes and found that the clothes she had just washed were still dripping. She asked discontentedly, "why is there so much water in the clothes? Why didn't you screw them when you hung them up?"
"I, I've tried hard."
