The people in the second room set up stalls to sell things and made clothes for people. Everyone saw the money they made from these jobs, but they didn't expect that the second room would earn so much in the blink of an eye.
It had been less than a month since Meng Li woke up from a vegetative state.
The people in the second and third bedrooms went back angrily, but still picked up the ruler.
They have to measure it carefully, what if it really crosses the line?
But the two families measured it several times and found that the distance was exactly five feet.
Then both families fell silent.
When confronting the third room of the main house, Lu Mu had already washed all the dishes and chopsticks, swept the kitchen floor clean, and returned everything to its original place, neatly.
Meng Li leaned against the kitchen door and looked at the man leisurely and satisfied.
"Lu Mu, you are such a good husband and father."
Lu Mu said: "I'm not a father yet."
These words seemed to remind Meng Li of something. He touched his hot face and snorted: "Don't think blindly. It's all in vain."
The corner of the man's mouth twitched. He was just telling the truth. Where did she think?
"Sister, we need to hide our money better, lest anyone get any ideas." Meng Li said this to her eldest brother when she was changing her dressing.
"Brother, don't worry. I'm hiding in a place where they will never find me. Moreover, even if I don't say anything, they will see it when the foundation is laid and the bricks are laid."
The eldest sister never made any omissions when doing things, and Meng Wu only reminded her.
Smelling the smell: "Is this a new medicine?"
"Yes, the effect is better. Brother will be able to go to the ground in two days." Meng Li said.
Meng Wu took a handful of medicine internally after eating and felt that his internal organs felt much better.
"Okay, I also hope to get better soon. Although I can't go to the boxing gym for the time being, I can just stay at home and work hard with everyone. Now I am doing nothing every day, waiting for you to take care of me, and I feel uneasy. "
"We are all from the same family. Brother, please don't say such kind words. You have taken good care of me since I have been lying in bed for so many years and never complained. How can I repay what I owe you? We don't speak two words in this family."
Meng Wu's eyes were a little moist, but he just shook his eldest sister's hand.
While sleeping, after several thunders, it started to rain.
The two-bedroom house is dilapidated. What I fear most is rainy days, when every room will leak.
The rainwater hit Meng Li's head and face without any bias, and the coolness woke her up from her sleep.
Meng Li wiped the rain off her face and muttered a curse. Seeing that there was no leakage from the man's side, she squeezed towards him.
Her action woke the man up, so once he squeezed in, the space was a bit insufficient.
Lu Mu leaned in and lay on his side.
Meng Li went a little further and finally avoided the rain.
Ever since Meng Wu's room almost had an accident, Meng Ning had built new or strengthened windows in every room, making them tight and surrounded by waterproof curtains so that no rainwater could get through.
Lu Mu was safe here, but this way, Meng Li touched his chest.
It was warm, a little hot, and you could clearly feel the man's firm skin and strong heartbeat.
Meng Li has been growing during this time, and is no longer as thin as at the beginning. The softness of her chest and the close contact with the man bring her an unspeakable embarrassment.
In the night, her face was as red as an apple. She could only hope that Lu Mu couldn't see or feel it.
Although it was raining, there was still a little moonlight between the sky and the earth. It came in through the curtains. Meng Li's hair was wet, and her eyes were as shiny as a deer because of the rain.
She seemed to be observing him silently.
Coupled with the changes in her body, Lu Mu's heart felt uncontrollably hot and her lower abdomen tightened.
An idea flashed through his mind, and he turned over and pressed her underneath him——
He closed his eyes and controlled these feelings. The veins on his forehead twitched slightly and his arms were stiff.
The reason why Meng Li didn't sleep was because she wanted to wait for the rain to stop and she could lie down.
Even though he came to Lu Mu, he would still get splashed.
She was a little worried at first, but she was relieved that Lu Mu was so calm.
Except for the night when she first woke up, when he went a little wild to save her adoptive father, this man has always been very well-behaved.
Lu Mu restrained himself, but his breathing was still a little heavy, and every breath became a little difficult.
His lower back moved away from Meng Li to prevent her from noticing his body's reaction.
"You are sick." Meng Li said softly.
If you have a cold or fever, your breathing will become a little rough.
Man: "Maybe."
Meng Li put her hand on his forehead. There was no fever, probably because he had caught the wind.
He took out a pill from his sleeve and fed it to his mouth: "Take it."
Lu Mu looked at her quietly for two seconds and said in a sleepy and slightly hoarse voice.
"It's still useless if you eat it."
"How could it be useless? My elder brother is dying. These medicines of mine can even cure my elder brother. You are only a little more sick now."
"Be obedient and eat it."
The man really opened his mouth and swallowed the medicine.
The rain was still pouring down, and the two of them maintained this posture.
Not sure if it was her imagination, Meng Li felt a little uncomfortable in her body.
Alas, with such a strong and handsome man, how can I still be a normal person without thinking too much?
Meng Li didn't wait for the rain to stop, she just wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible.
She closed her eyes and recited the Bing Xin Jue silently: if the heart is as clear as ice, one will not be surprised when the sky falls, one will remain calm despite all changes, one will feel happy and calm——
I felt sleepy as I read and recited, and finally fell asleep.
Lu Mu didn't fall asleep until a long time ago. He felt that his whole body was about to explode and he couldn't rest anywhere.
When I woke up the next day, I felt a little bad.
"Brother-in-law, you didn't sleep well last night." Meng Ning saw the faint cyan under his eyes and asked with concern.
"Well, it's raining." Lu Mu sat down at the table to have breakfast.
Meng Li got up before him today and had already eaten half of his breakfast. He glanced at Lu Mu and said, "Is Feng Han still feeling well?"
"Okay." Lu Mu buried his head in eating. He always felt a warm and soft feeling on his body that lingered.
"This shabby house leaks every year. When we move into a new home, we won't have this problem anymore," Meng Wudao said.
It could have been repaired, but new houses will be built soon, and these dilapidated houses will be demolished, so there is no need.
After eating, the couple set out for the county town. It was fifty miles from here to the county town. The ox-cart was too slow, so they had to hire a horse-drawn carriage in the town.
When they arrived in town and went to Qiushui Pavilion, Meng Li handed the layout of the custom-made clothes to Boss Liu.
Boss Liu now looked at them one by one, nodded with satisfaction, and handed Meng Li another book.
"This is new. There are thirty bodies. Two of the ladies are from the county."
"For the first batch, we still follow the old rules. If there are no problems with the ladies, we will settle the settlement with Miss Meng."
"Okay." Meng Li put the book into her sleeve: "Boss Liu, I want to inquire about something with you."
"You tell me."
"Is there anyone in this town who wants to rent out their yard? It would be about the same size for a family of five."
