Chapter 419: Life is worse than death, Liu Haizhong and his wife passed away

Just like that, when it got dark, Liu Haizhong returned home with a tired and disappointed look on his face.

As soon as he entered the door, Liu Guangtian came over and said, "Dad, how is it? If I guessed correctly, the boss didn't give you a penny, right?"

"Oh! I was wrong, Guangtian, I was really wrong." Liu Haizhong said.

"I knew it was like this," Liu Guangtian said with a smile, "Dad, let me tell you something you may not like. Look at what you have raised. If you had been nicer to us and given us more money, why would we be in this situation now?"

"Guangtian, stop talking!"

"Okay, I won't say anything more," Liu Guangtian said, "Since you're back, I'll go home. I still have to look for a job tomorrow. I'll leave Mom to you."

"Guang Tian, ​​I haven't eaten yet! Why don't you go buy me something? Your mother hasn't eaten either, right?" Liu Haizhong said quickly.

"Oh my dear father! Where do I have any money now?" Liu Guangtian pulled out his two trouser pockets and said, "Look, do I still have money? My pockets are cleaner than my face now!"

“This…” Liu Haizhong said helplessly, “I still have some, I’ll get it for you!”

"Dad, you'd better not give it to me. Keep your little money for buying food and noodles!" Liu Guangtian said, "It's different now than before. Don't you know how expensive it is to eat out? One meal is equivalent to three meals. What will you do when you spend all your little money? Can you wait until you get your pension?"

After hearing what Liu Guangtian said, Liu Haizhong also reacted, "Yeah, if I eat out with this little money, how can I make it until I get paid? But I can't cook."

"Dad, who is born with the talent? We just need to learn." Liu Guangtian said.

"Other things are easy to say, but I really don't know how to make noodles."

"If you don't know how to do it, just brush some batter. My mother can't eat hard food either," Liu Guangtian said. "That's it for now. I have to go back too. If it's too late, Haiyan won't let me into the house."

After saying that, Liu Guangtian hurried out.

"Guangtian, come over tomorrow. I can't take care of your mother by myself!" Liu Haizhong chased out and said.

"Dad, I'll try my best, okay?"

……

Seeing Liu Guangtian leave, Liu Haizhong instantly felt helpless. He slowly walked to the chair and sat down. "Hey, how could this happen? How could this happen? Why did I end up like this?"

Not long after I sat down, my wife on the bed started to moan.

Hearing the voice, Liu Haizhong stood up helplessly, walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Hmm, ah! Hmm, hmm, ah, ah, ah, ah, I'm so hungry, I'm hungry..."

"Take medicine?"

"Yes, ha mian, ha mian..."

"You want some noodles?"

"Twenty, ha mian, ha mian...I'm done,"

Seeing his wife pointing at her crotch with the hand that could still move, Liu Haizhong instantly realized that she had defecated or peed.

"Hey! It's pooping again!"

After complaining, Liu Haizhong helplessly went to the side, picked up the washbasin and towel, and went over to clean up.

He was the one who did all these things in the hospital. Although his two sons would help a little, they could only fetch him some water or help others.

After cleaning up while suppressing his nausea, Liu Haizhong sat down next to his wife and began to babble.

"Old woman! Tell me, how did you get such a disease? What do you think you will do in the future? I can bear to wipe the shit and piss, but what about cooking? I don't know how to cook."

"Oh my god?" his wife Chen said with tears in her eyes.

"Hey, you can't even speak clearly. I can't understand what you are saying?" Liu Haizhong said helplessly.

"Are you still crying? I should be the one crying. How nice it would be if I was the one lying down? At least I wouldn't have to cook. What do you think we should do?"

"Ahhhhhhhh..." Chen burst into tears.

During this month, she felt extremely aggrieved. She couldn't control her poop and pee, and she couldn't speak clearly. Especially when she had a poop, the feeling of humiliation almost tortured her to death. If she wasn't really afraid of death, she would have starved herself to death long ago.

"Okay, you're still feeling wronged. I want to cry. I'm going to cook. Just make do with what you can eat and what you can't."

Having said that, Liu Haizhong stood up and went to the kitchen.

……

Just like that, time passed quickly and three months later, during these three months, Liu Haizhong and his wife lived in dire straits, especially his wife Chen, whose life was worse than death.

Not to mention that she didn't have enough food to eat, now her whole body was covered with sores, especially on her back. It hurt even if she moved the slightest, the kind of pain that went deep into her bones.

At noon that day, after Liu Haizhong fed her half a bowl of porridge, she felt as if her throat was blocked by something. She struggled for a while and wanted to ask Liu Haizhong to stop feeding her. However, Liu Haizhong was like a walking corpse. He seemed not to see her cry for help and mechanically picked up the spoon and brought the porridge to her mouth again.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Chen started coughing desperately.

"what happened?"

"Cough, cough, cough..." After coughing again, Chen ran out of breath and collapsed, then lay there motionless.

"died?"

After saying this, Liu Haizhong put his hand on Chen's nose. After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "It's better to die. You should have died a long time ago. Living is just suffering."

After Chen died, Liu Haizhong went directly to find Liu Guangtian. Liu Guangtian did not refuse. After sending Liu Haizhong home first, he went to find Liu Guangfu.

After the two of them discussed it, they bought a coffin and took it directly home. After all, Liu Haizhong still had a house, and the investment would be recovered sooner or later.

Just like that, after burying Chen, without waiting for Liu Haizhong to express his thoughts, the two brothers complained to him about their grievances, such as they had no money, they couldn't eat, and their wives wanted a divorce. After that, Liu Haizhong could no longer tell them the plans in his mind. There was nothing he could do. They were so miserable, what else could he say?

After the two left, Liu Haizhong felt very sad, so he went out to buy some cold dishes and started drinking at home.

He drank one cup after another, one bottle after another, until he was drunk.

As a result, that very night, Liu Haizhong drank himself to death.

It was only after Li Yuanjun discovered that the door had been open for two days that he found it, otherwise it would have broken down at home.
