It stands to reason that at this time, Jianna, as a high school student, should be in class.

Her eyes are red and swollen standing under the tree crying now, something must have happened at home.

"what happened?"

"I haven't come back from the school for the past few days. My elder brother went to school to call me back, and I didn't know that my mother hadn't eaten for two days."

Jianna couldn't help sobbing again as she spoke: "They said my mother was suffering from choking disease."

Choking disease?

The smile on Lin Manfu's face disappeared in an instant. She is also a child from the countryside, so she naturally knows that choking disease is another name for esophageal cancer.
Thinking of Jian Naniang's appearance, Lin Manfu couldn't believe that she could suffer from such a terrible disease.

In this day and age, no one has regular physical examinations. Even if there is any discomfort, they just have to endure it and wait for it to pass.

But once esophageal cancer is discovered, it is almost the stage of eating difficulties.

Difficulty eating until death, but only a month or two
"Manman, I won't go to school, I will take care of my mother at home."

Jian Na wiped her tears, and said to Lin Manfu solemnly, and she was also speaking to herself.

"Jianna, don't be too pessimistic, I'll send the car home to find you."

At this moment, Lin Manfu couldn't even say a word of comfort.

Because she knew that in later generations with such good medical conditions, cancer would be a shame, let alone in this era.

"Manman, don't come home. Others say it's contagious." Jianna shook her head violently.

Lin Manfu raised her arm, patted Jianna's shoulder lightly, and comforted her: "If my aunt really has choking disease, it won't be contagious. Especially at this time, my aunt feels very uncomfortable, so we can't alienate her, we know Yet?"

"Well, I know. Even if it's contagious, I'm not afraid." Jianna nodded, wiped away her tears, and urged Lin Manfu to go home first.

After Lin Manfu returned home, she and Mother Lin unloaded the car while listening to her tell the big events that happened in the village today.

The most important thing was Jian Naniang's matter. Half a month ago, she felt that her throat was uncomfortable. At first, she didn't take it seriously because she got angry.

Later, my voice became hoarse, and I felt that it was the cause of getting angry.

For many days in a row, eating pancakes and steamed buns was a bit strenuous.So far, even drinking rice porridge feels affected, so I went to the hospital.

Now that I have a fever, it seems that the situation is really not good.

"Manman, you and Jianna are friends. You should persuade her more at this time, but her brother and sister-in-law didn't want her to go to school before, and I'm afraid they won't let her go to school anymore." Mother Lin sighed In one breath, life and death are not in control
Lin Manfu nodded, and went back to her new room with her schoolbag.Said he needed to change clothes, locked the door, entered the space and bought a bag of milk powder for middle-aged and elderly people.

He removed the outer packing and hurried to visit Jian Naniang with only the inner bag.

Although Hongmiao Village is very poor, there are some human relationships that should be there.

Almost everyone in the village knew about the fact that Jian Naniang was rushed back after entering the hospital.

They came to visit Jian Naniang one after another. When Lin Manfu went in, several women were chatting with Jian Naniang who had a hoarse voice.

"Manman, Auntie wants to talk to you alone."

After Jian Naniang finished exchanging greetings, she raised her eyes to look at Lin Manfu.

The others also understood what this meant, and got up to say goodbye.

"Auntie." Lin Manfu felt that at this time, no matter how much she said, she would be powerless
"Don't worry, I'm a very strong person, and I won't give up until the last moment." Jian Naniang smiled forcedly: "Jianna won't be able to go to school anymore, I want you to take her, the battlefield Whether it’s a furniture factory or a furniture factory, find her a cleaning job.”

"Auntie, don't worry about Jianna's work, you should rest at ease and recuperate first."

"I know I'm going to die sooner or later. Motherless children are the most wronged at home, and Jianna is a girl again. If I can find a job and find a good husband's family, I can rest assured."

Jian Naniang has been very strong ever since she knew she had an incurable disease, and she didn't shed a single tear.

But when she thinks of Jianna, her eyes turn red, and the thing that worries her most is her daughter.
Lin Manfu thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Our village primary school may need to find a substitute teacher, and I will recommend Jianna to go there when the time comes. But you should pretend that you don't know about this news, and don't spread it to the outside world."

"Okay, okay. With your words, I feel relieved." Jian Naniang nodded, wiped her eyes, and then called out the door to call Jian Na in.

After leaving Jianna's house, Lin Manfu's mood has been very low.She taught Mother Lin to use desiccant to make dried flowers, and then handed over the work to Mother Lin.

She was lying in the room without any motivation, saying she was resting, but the more she lay down, the more tired she felt.

For two days in a row, she didn't go out.Make dried flowers, tidy up leather, and draw design drawings for mountain road reconstruction.

Now, except for the process of making bags, Lin Mu has already started doing such tasks as tanning leather, making small accessories, or making essential oils and toilet water.

Even if she went to the city to follow her in her third year of high school, Lin's mother would be able to pay for the businessman, Sister Meng, by dumping these things at home.

"Full?"

"Xiaoqian? Wen Bo?" Lin Manfu was free, sitting in the shade drawing design drawings, when she heard someone calling her, she trotted out.

"The clothes on you are so fresh." Xiaoqian put her hair behind her head, with the shyness that a woman should have on her face, standing with Gu Wenbai, she looked like a newlyweds.

Lin Manfu looked down at the white short-sleeved shirt on her body. Among the wild flowers picked by Aunt Xingying yesterday, there were plants that could be used for rubbing.

In addition to the bluegrass she hoarded in the space, she rubbed the white shirt she was wearing.

Although the flower pattern looks tacky, the rubbed flowers look so fresh.

As if nature was printed on the clothes, Lin Manfu liked this work very much, and after the color was fixed, she put it on her body.

"I'll teach you how to do it." Lin Manfu and Xiaoqian went into the room, turned around and shouted at Gu Wenbai: "Look around for yourself, forgive me for not entertaining you well."

When two women get together, there are always endless topics to talk about.Gu Wenbo looked around the yard, played with the little rabbit for a while, and then went to the house.

"Wen Bai, do you work for the County Cultural Bureau? Do you usually use a black and white camera or a color camera?"

Lin Manfu suddenly thought of this, and Gu Wenbai happened to be working in the Cultural Bureau, so he asked.

"How do you know that our unit has a new color printing machine?"

Gu Wenbo was surprised, and hurriedly asked: "I went back to the unit today, and the color printing machine just arrived at the unit only half an hour ago."
