Then she looked very aggrieved and said, "I didn't even have time to say anything, but you just took action."
Miao Xianghua quickly apologized and petted Jiang Manyue, coaxing her into submission before sighing, "Your mother-in-law is so generous. She gave me so much money and tickets just for cooking a meal."
Jiang Manyue immediately put on a nonchalant expression, her smug tone convincing, "Lu Lin's allowance is high. Besides, I'm Lu Lin's wife. Isn't it natural for me to receive his allowance?"
As she spoke, she was praising herself in her heart for her superb acting skills. With such acting skills, wouldn't her own mother be stunned?
Anyway, Miao Xianghua will not go to Li Guifen to verify this matter, so it’s up to her to say whatever she wants.
The Lu family eats well every day, and the Jiang family lives a comfortable life with the subsidy from their daughter. Both sides get what they want, so who cares about the reason for the money?
Moreover, Jiang Manyue had always been like this, so Miao Xianghua didn't think there was anything wrong when he heard it. Instead, he thought it was proof that his daughter was living a good life.
Miao Xianghua tapped her forehead and said, "You've married into a good family. Your mother-in-law is gentle and generous. In other families, this would be a big deal for the housekeeper, and your father-in-law is a person who doesn't care about things. You have to cherish it. Have a baby with Lu Lin soon. Wouldn't your position as an officer's wife be more secure?"
When Jiang Manyue heard that it was about having a baby again, her head was overwhelmed.
"Having a baby isn't just my responsibility. What's the point of just urging me? Lu Lin doesn't even come back once a year. How am I supposed to give birth? What can I do with it?"
Although Jiang Manyue had never thought about having a baby, it did not prevent her from directly putting the blame on Lu Lin. After all, he was away from home all year round, so it was his problem that he had no children.
Miao Xianghua sighed after hearing this. "Ah, the Lu family is great, but Lu Lin is never home. When do you think you can have a baby?"
Jiang Manyue thought that this topic was not going anywhere, so she quickly tried to fool him again.
"Mom, Lu Lin being busy means he's valued by his superiors. We can't hold him back. If he keeps coming home, what will his superiors think of him? They'll definitely not let him get a promotion, right? How can I be a military officer's wife then?"
Miao Xianghua felt that what her daughter said made sense, so she could only feel sad. If the situation continued like this, when would she be able to hold her grandson in her arms?
Jiang Manyue fooled Miao Xianghua and didn't stay any longer. She urged Miao Xianghua to go find his third sister-in-law, and she also had to take a stroll in the Liu family yard.
Miao Xianghua left with the backpack on his back, and Jiang Manyue also left the Jiang family and went straight to the Liu family yard.
In the Liu family yard, several intellectuals were cleaning the house. Faced with Jiang Manyue's sudden visit, they had no intention of inviting her in.
"Comrade, we just arrived and the room is not clean yet, so I won't invite you in to sit down. Let's talk next time we have a chance."
The oldest-looking person among them politely declined Jiang Manyue's request to come in and take a look.
Jiang Manyue didn't care. Since people said so, she might as well leave first. It would be bad to be annoying here.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone rushing out, their tone very anxious, "Zhen Yi has a fever and is talking nonsense. Cold water is no use at all!"
Jiang Manyue stopped in her tracks and looked back at the people in the yard. "I have some antipyretic medicine. If you need it, I can get it for you when I get home."
Several people in the yard were a little hesitant. They really needed antipyretics now, but they didn't know Jiang Manyue. They only knew that she was from this team and didn't know whether they should accept her kindness.
"Teacher Zhang! It's already this late, why are you still hesitating? Zhenyi has such a high fever. If she doesn't take the fever-reducing medicine, her life will be in danger!"
After saying that, the man rushed to Jiang Manyue and said earnestly, "Comrade, my name is Xu Liqun. We are both new to the team. Although we can't give you much in return, as long as you need us, we will definitely do our best to help. Please go home and get the medicine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Manyue turned around and ran back, saying as she ran, "Comrade Xu, don't worry, I'll go back and get it."
Xu Liqun shouted thank you loudly from behind, then hurried back to the house to see his companion who was still running a high fever.
Several people in the yard looked at each other, and finally the oldest person sighed, "That comrade also meant well. Let's not think too much about it. Liqun is right. If others need help in the future, we will do our best."
Not long after, Jiang Manyue came back.
She didn't run very far in the first place. She just found a deserted place to enter the space and took some fever-reducing pills and some anti-inflammatory drugs from the pharmacy.
Jiang Manyue didn’t know what the patient’s condition was, but it was always a good idea to take antipyretics and anti-inflammatory drugs together.
The oldest man took the medicine from Jiang Manyue, handed it to the person next to him and asked him to take it into the house quickly. He then embarrassedly asked Jiang Manyue to sit down in the main room which had not been cleaned yet.
"Hey, we haven't cleaned up yet. We don't have any bowls or cups. We brought our own water for drinking, so it's not convenient for you to use it. I'm really sorry."
Jiang Manyue shook her head to indicate that it was okay. She didn't come here just to drink water. Besides, she had just arrived, so it was normal that she had nothing.
"I don't know your name yet, comrade. My name is Zhang Chengji. These are Yu Zimo, Hao Yuanming, Xiao Cheng, Wu Yongyuan, Xu Liqun, whom you just met, and our sick companion, her name is Tang Zhenyi."
In fact, these people are all teachers and classmates of Jingshi University, but Zhang Chengji did not reveal it, he just introduced everyone's name.
