After dinner, the Lu family went to work one after another.

These days, Lu Hongmei also went to work.

Shen Man slept until noon, yawned and stretched. Just as she was about to change clothes and get out of bed, she found that her whole body was sticky with sweat and she felt very uncomfortable.

Only then did she remember that she seemed to have a fever last night.

While she was half asleep, someone fed her some antipyretic medicine. She had slept under the covers all night and had been sweating non-stop, so she was feeling very uncomfortable now.

Shen Man lowered her head and glanced at the watch on her wrist.

At this point, most of the mainland family members are at work, and there is usually only the mainland mother at home, and occasionally the mainland son-in-law.

She simply went out in her pajamas, planning to go to the kitchen, boil some hot water and take a bath.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I heard the voice of a strange female journalist.

"Brother Guo, this is my sister-in-law, right?"

Shen Man paused, just in time to run face to face with Lu Guo who came in from outside, and the person who made the voice.

A pretty girl with a sweet smile. Her skin is a healthy wheat color, her eyes are particularly bright, and she has two little pear-shaped eyes when she smiles.

Liu Aihong smiled and stretched out her hand to shake hands with Shen Man.

"Hello, sister-in-law. My name is Aihong. I may disturb you for some time in the future."

Shen Man stretched out her hand and shook her hand. "Hello, my name is Shen Man."

Lu Guo introduced her to the two again, "Aihong is my mother's distant niece, and she will be living in our house for a while."

"This is my wife, Aihong. You can just call her sister-in-law."

Liu Aihong looked at the pajamas that Shen Man was wearing and her slightly messy hair. She then raised her head to look at the big sun outside.

"Sister-in-law, you are already in high school, why are you just getting up now?"

In our rural areas, if a daughter-in-law sleeps until noon, she will be scolded. Not only the mother-in-law will scold her, but even the aunts and ladies in the team will scold her when they sit together and talk.

Shen Man immediately understood the hidden meaning of these words.

She said indifferently, "I had a fever, took some medicine and have been drowsy ever since."

Liu Ai's face froze, and she quickly apologized, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I... I'm a straightforward person, and I don't think before I speak. I'm not saying that you're lazy, I'm just asking a question."

"I didn't realize you were sick."

Shen Manbai interrupted her, "I see. If nothing else, I'll go get some hot water to take a bath."

It takes some time to heat the water. She originally planned to go out to heat the water first, and then go back to the house to wash up, but she didn't expect to bump into these two people.

She was about to turn around.

Liu Aihong bit her lip and hesitated for a moment, "Brother Guo, my sister-in-law won't be angry, right?"

"I really didn't mean it. Can you help me explain it to my sister-in-law, please?"

Unexpectedly, there was no answer for a long time.

She looked up and found that Lu Guo had been looking at Shen Man's back until she disappeared.

Liu Aihong was stunned. She subconsciously reached out to pull Lu Guo's clothes, just like when she was a child, "Brother Guo, you..."

Lu Guo avoided her movements, his expression indifferent, "Aihong, we are all grown up, it's not good to pull a man's clothes casually."

"It will give people the wrong impression, and it will be hard for you to find a husband in the future."

Liu Aihong bit her lip and said, "Brother Guo, I understand. I will be more careful in the future and try my best to prevent my sister-in-law from misunderstanding me."

"How about...I'll go explain what happened just now to my sister-in-law."

Lu Guo frowned slightly and said in a cold voice, "No need, I will explain it to her myself."

"You should stay at home these days and avoid hanging around your sister-in-law."

Shen Man is not someone you want to mess with, and Liu Aihong is someone who can cause trouble. If these two get together, there might be a fight.

Liu Aihong's body froze. What did this mean? Was he warning her?

Wasn't it said that 놛 and Shen Man had a bad relationship and would get divorced sooner or later? Why did she feel that it didn't seem like that?

In the kitchen.

Shen Man boiled some hot water and was about to use a bucket to bring the hot water into the room to take a bath.

Her 꿛녊 was about to use her 꺆 to lift the barrel, but at this moment, a 꿛 with distinct joints lifted the barrel before her.

"Let me do it." The man's deep and magnetic voice rang in her ears.

Shen Man raised her head and looked towards Lu Guo.

This angular face is tough and cold, with deep eyebrows and eyes and a high nose bridge. There is a faint scent of soap on his body.

"Aren't you going to accompany the guests?"

Lu Guo glanced at her and said, "There are differences between men and women. It's not appropriate for me to accompany her all the time."

Shen Man was silent. These were indeed words that this man could say.

In the living room, Liu Aihong saw Lu Guo bringing hot water to Shen Man, but she was left here, sitting alone. She couldn't help feeling unhappy.

She stood up and walked over. "Brother Guo, you are so kind to my sister-in-law. Men in our place would never do such things for women."

"It is said that women hold up half the sky. Many sisters-in-law in our brigade are more capable than men. They work, do housework, take care of children, wash clothes and cook, and earn money for everything."

"Some time ago, I learned how to drive a tractor from the tractor driver in the brigade. Now, I am the only woman in the brigade who can drive a tractor."

Liu Aihong pursed her lips and smiled shyly.

"Our team leader also said that he would recommend me to be a model worker in our team this year. Maybe I can even participate in the selection of the Peasant-Soldier University with the educated youth."

“If I succeed, I can go to college.”

Lu Guo's expression became more distant, and he said indifferently, "It's fine."

Liu Aihong: “…”

No, she said so much, but you only uttered three words?

Shen Man almost couldn't help laughing out loud. People said so much, not just for this "pretty good."

She didn't see it, and her face turned green instantly.

Liu Aihong took a deep breath and wanted to say something.

Suddenly, Lu Guoshen blocked her way and said in a deep voice, "This is my and your sister-in-law's room. Go sit in the living room and wait for my mother to come back."

Liu Aihong's body froze, and she looked at Shen Man, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I'll go over first."

Shen Man raised her eyebrows. "Aihong, you don't look very well. Are you sick? Why don't you go to a nearby hospital?"

Liu Aihong smiled and said, "It's okay. Maybe it's because the weather is too hot. It's hot."

Shen Man nodded, "That's possible."

In the room.

Lu Guo had already poured hot water into the bathtub, brought in cold water, and adjusted the water temperature.

Shen 꿛 tested the water temperature and felt it was about right, so he went out and called Shen Man in.

"The bath water is ready, take a look and see if it suits you."

Shen Man felt the water temperature and said, "Sure, thank you."

Although it was a bit cold, she couldn't say no since others were willing to help her.

Lu 녊国's face darkened. She was always so polite and distant to 놛.
