The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife

Jiang Tingxia heard from Li Changpu that his eldest sister was in her early thirties, but the woman walking towards them looked even older than her actual age.

Her hair was combed back, but it was frizzy and dry, and her skin was sallow. Her eyes looked somewhat similar to Li Changpu's, but her eyes were full of fatigue from running around.

Li Changpu called out, "Big sister."

He took Jiang Tingxia by the hand and introduced her to his elder sister: "This is Tingxia."

Li Changpu and his elder sister Li Dahua mentioned Jiang Tingxia's name.

The woman's bloodshot eyes looked at Jiang Tingxia and then at Li Changpu. Her dry lips moved and she only said, "Here I come."

She pursed her lips and moved her eyes, as if she wanted to smile at them, but the muscles on her face twitched and she burst into tears, two lines of tears flowing out. She rushed over and hugged Li Changpu.

Jin Xiaowen and his children saw their mother crying so sadly, and they stood anxiously around Li Changpu and their mother.

The children and their mother are very close, and they sensed their mother's sadness and excitement. There was a hint of fear in the children's big eyes.

Jin Xiaoyu was young and was even more frightened. She also started crying loudly, and the little girl opened her mouth and called for her mother.

Li Dahua let go of Li Changpu, wiped her face with her sleeve, pulled Jin Xiaoyu to coax her for a while, tears still flashing in her eyes, she said to the children: "Go in and see your father."

Li Dahua pushed the three children into the ward. Li Changpu held Jiang Tingxia's hand, holding it tightly with his big palm. His eyes were red.

He hasn't seen his eldest sister for many years.

When he was as old as Xiaowen, he had a fight with his stepmother's two sons. He was caught by his father and kicked badly. Then his father beat and scolded him and asked him to get him some wine. He got mad and stopped the two sons of his stepmother at the entrance of the village with injuries all over his body. He beat them up severely, then ran away with the money without even having time to say a word to his eldest sister.

Later, he served in the army outside and had no place to spend his monthly salary. He himself did not spend money, so he only had one relative who could be remembered. Li Changpu not only sent money to his sister, but also to his father to support the whole family, because he knew that if he only sent money to his sister, she would not be able to spend it. So he simply gave her all the money just to make his sister's life better at home.

He was unwilling to return to this home as he was busy with work. At first he was fighting everywhere, but later when things settled down he still had a lot of things to do and was very busy, so he had few opportunities to go back. If you count carefully, he only went back two or three times in all these years, so he went back quickly and left after dealing with his sister's affairs.

The last time I saw his sister, I heard that his hometown had taken the money he sent to his sister, and he went back to deal with it.

It has been three or four years since then. The two siblings have not seen each other for many years. The next time they met, it was because something happened in his sister's family. He couldn't help feeling sad.

Li Changpu and Jiang Tingxia followed Li Dahua. The mother and children entered the ward before them. As soon as Jiang Tingxia entered the room, he saw Jin Xiaowen and Jin Xiaobao lying in front of the bed. The man on the bed was almost unrecognizable with sunken eyes, pale face, and panting. When he saw the children coming, he opened his mouth and spoke in a voice so low that people who were far away could not hear what he said.

Then there were the sounds of children crying. Jin Xiaobao cried miserably, calling for his daddy. The two girls also started crying, and Li Dahua also started crying.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Tingxia felt uncomfortable for a moment, and was frightened by the face of the dying man. He covered his heart and leaned his face on Li Changpu's arm.

Li Changpu noticed Jiang Tingxia's emotions, and gently embraced her, not moving forward. The two of them stood at the door and watched the whole family in the house crying.

……

"Sister, let's go to a big hospital and I'll find a solution."

Li Dahua wiped her tears and said, "No need. I have asked your brother-in-law's family to get the car ready. I will take him home right away." Li Changpu's eyes turned red and she shed two lines of tears. "It's better to die at home."

She said to Li Changpu, "Your brother-in-law has been ill for several years. When the hospital diagnosed him, they said he would not live for many days. I asked you for help, but you found people and gave me money. After all these years, I am actually mentally prepared."

"I took him home. This is what your brother-in-law meant."

Li Changpu remained silent, and Li Dahua looked at Jiang Tingxia, "It's Tingxia, right?"

"Look, this is the situation when my eldest sister saw you for the first time. The house was in a mess and I couldn't take care of you. You must be exhausted after traveling for several days. This is what I thought. Don't follow me back to his brother-in-law's house. Go back to your father's house first. I went back yesterday to clean up the empty room for you."

"You can live here when you go back."

Li Changpu also understood what his sister meant.

He had found a doctor for them in Kyoto before, and the doctor in the big hospital there also said that Li Dahua's husband's condition could not be cured and could only be taken care of. So they returned to the city hospital, which was relatively close to home and cost less. With the financial support from Li Changpu, the money was barely enough for his medical treatment. After dragging it on for so many years, he finally couldn't hold on any longer.

Li Changpu knew it in his heart. He had just suggested taking the person to a big hospital outside because he hoped his sister wouldn't be so sad. In this kind of thing, family members have done their best and won't have wild thoughts. Now, although his sister is sad, her mental state is okay. She has made mental preparations and has gotten through the hardest part.

He stopped persuading her.

Li Changpu said, "Sister, your work here is more important. You don't need to take time out to go back and clean up the house for us. I can do it myself when I get back."

"That's impossible. The house hasn't been occupied for so long. It's covered in dirt and dust. It's all over my body." Li Dahua looked at Jiang Tingxia, her eyes still sad. Her face was full of smiles, showing her sincerity. She smiled and said, "This is the first time my sister-in-law has come to our house since she got married. How can we see such a mess right after we enter the house?"

Li Dahua reached out and held Jiang Tingxia's hand, "Tingxia, the current situation at home is still unfair to you, please don't despise it."

Li Dahua worked hard all year round, taking care of patients and working in the fields. Her fingers were rough and cracked, and her hands were black, as if covered with years of dirt. This was especially obvious when her hands were covered by Jiang Tingxia's fair and tender hands.

When Li Changpu saw Li Dahua suddenly reach out and hold Jiang Tingxia's hand, he was also startled. He looked at Jiang Tingxia to see her expression, his eyes full of worry.

Just now, Li Dahua was planning to take her man home, so she changed him into a set of clean clothes.

Li Changpu and Jiang Tingxia were both in the ward at that time. Li Changpu went to lend a hand, but Li Dahua insisted on doing it herself and only let Li Changpu help for a while.

At this time, the patient was unable to take care of himself, so Li Dahua put a thin mat under the man's body, with small pieces of feces and urine on it. It was obvious that Li Dahua was used to doing this, and her face did not change at all. She cleaned up the place neatly and replaced the mat.

Li Changpu saw all these things. Jiang Tingxia was just standing farther away, so he must have known about it as well. Just now, when Li Changpu saw Jiang Tingxia see the old mat that his sister had picked up, he suddenly closed his eyes and turned away.

Jiang Tingxia was used to being clean and couldn't stand having mud on his body, let alone shit, urine or fart. He couldn't even bear to hear about it. Although his elder sister washed her hands after cleaning up, Li Changpu knew that Jiang Tingxia still couldn't stand it.

Now her elder sister suddenly grabbed Jiang Tingxia's hand, and Li Changpu was very worried.

He knew what Jiang Tingxia would think, and was worried that she would suddenly change her attitude and shake off his eldest sister's hand, which she was holding affectionately, and embarrass her.
