Li Man was dizzy for a while, and his chest was hurting, and he stretched out his hand to push him hard, but the man on his body was as strong as something, like a stone mill, and the little one who pressed her was called a tight fit.

With her mouth open, she took a few deep breaths before she felt better.

And he, with his face against her neck, was even breathing hot.

Li Man was sure that he had a fever, and the fever was quite serious, she tried to call him several times, but there was no response, just rubbing against her as if it was uncomfortable.

It can't go on like this, the ground is dirty and cold, and she has just changed into new clothes.

"Little Five—" She tried to take a deep breath and shouted a few times.

There was no movement at all, but a few dog barks could be faintly heard, where did Xiao Wu, the bear child, go? I haven't seen anyone since lunch, but now that she is being pressed under Li Yan, she really doesn't want others to see it.

Irritable, "Li Hua! As a last resort, she shouted Li Huaxuan again.

Sure enough, after a few sounds, she heard footsteps, and was expecting someone to drag Li Yan away, but she didn't want to, but it was a black and strong man who came in, his face was full of stubble, his eyes were a little cloudy and bloodshot, and he couldn't tell his age.

Li Man only thought he was a drunk who broke in, and exclaimed, "Who are you?" Get out of the house quickly, our family is behind the house, and you must not spoil it. ”

In a hurry, she spoke Mandarin, and the person who came was obviously stunned, but smiled innocently in an instant, "You are a younger brother and sister, right?" Isn't Da Lang at home? Then, he bent down to look at it again, and said in surprise, "Oh, what's wrong with Erlang?" ”

Is it an acquaintance of the Li family? Li Man's heart relaxed slightly, and hurriedly said in a not very proficient local dialect, "Uncle, Li Yan seems to have a fever, can you help me pull him up?" ”

The man's cloudy gaze slipped around Li Man's face, his eyes were slightly stunned, and then he retracted in a panic, and couldn't help nodding, "Okay." While helping Li Yan up.

As soon as the heavy object on his body left, Li Man immediately got up, dusted off the dust on his clothes, and hurriedly led the man to the east house, "Please help me send him to this house." ”

"Oh." The man obediently helped Li Yan to the east house, and then put him on the kang.

"Thank you." Li Man thanked him while reaching out to touch Li Yan's forehead, hot hands.

The man was standing behind her, because Li Yan was in a half-dazed state, she was a woman, he felt that it was inappropriate, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "Brother and sister, Da Lang is not here, then I will come back in the evening." ”

As he spoke, he was leaving.

At this time, Li Hua rushed back, saw him, and was slightly surprised, "Brother Ershun? ”

"Shiro, aren't you in school? I'm coming to your big brother. When Ershun saw Li Hua, his face was full of smiles, but his expression was a little restrained.

Li Huahui said, "These days are on vacation. Seeing Li Yan lying on the kang again, he hurriedly stepped forward, "What's wrong with the second brother?" ”

"He had a fever." Li Man was sitting on the kang, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead with a dry cloth, and when he saw Li Hua coming, he instructed, "You go and get some warm water." ”

"Oh." Li Hua saw that the second brother's face was pale and unconscious, so he was busy listening to Li Man's words, and went to the kitchen to mix some warm water.

Li Man got up, took the basin and put it on the stool beside him, then rubbed it with a dry cloth in warm water, and said to Li Hua, "You untie his clothes." ”

"Huh?" Li Hua was stunned, but he still obediently untied Li Yan's shirt.

Li Man handed him the prepared warm cloth, "Help him wipe it, his neck, armpits, chest, palms, etc., all of them." ”

Li Huahu looked at Li Man suspiciously.

"Rub it, help him cool down." Li Man stuffed the wet cloth directly into his hand and continued, "I guess he was agitated by taking a shower with cold water yesterday, and it rained all morning today. ”

Li Hua felt that what she said was very reasonable, and was busy wiping it up for Li Yan according to what she said.

After wiping it again, Li Man took the wet cloth, rubbed it in the water again, and then gave it to him, and then gently tested Li Yan's forehead with his hand, although after wiping, the temperature dropped, but it was hot again after a while.

Ershun was still standing in the room, seeing that they were busy forgetting themselves, they opened their mouths, and said softly, "Shiro, do you want to ask a doctor to take a look?" It's not fun if you feel the cold. ”

Li Hua looked solemn, put the cloth into the basin, and said to Li Man, "You take care of it, I'll call the eldest brother back." ”

The medical conditions in this ancient world were very poor, and the wind and cold could kill people, Li Man was also worried in his heart, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay." ”

Li Hua hurriedly went out to find his eldest brother Li Mo.

Moments later, the three brothers returned together.

"What's wrong with the second brother? Didn't you just do well? Li Shu was the first to run to the kang and asked worriedly.

Li Mo followed, stretched out his hand to probe Li Yan's forehead, and his expression became more and more solemn, "I'll go find the doctor right away." ”

"Big brother, I'll go with you." Li Hua said.

Li Mo glanced at him and said, "No, you stay at home to take care of your second brother, and I'll just go with your third brother." "The fourth brother is much calmer and calmer than the third brother, and if there is something at home, he can also be reassuring.

Li Hua glanced at Li Man, the second brother was sick, leaving her alone at home, he was really not at ease, so he said to Li Mo, "Okay, big brother, you bring more silver with you, in case the doctor prescribes medicine, you will buy it back first, and then run back and forth." ”

"Hmm." Li Mo said, walked to the big cabinet, opened the cabinet, took out a small cloth bag from it, opened it, frowned slightly, stuffed it directly into his arms, turned to Li Shu and said, "Third brother, let's go." ”

"Hmm." Li Shu wiped the sweat from his forehead and followed closely behind the eldest brother.

Li Man saw that the two of them were about to go out, but it was foggy and rainy outside, and he didn't know how far away the doctor's house was, if it was drenched for a long time, he was afraid that the two of them would also get sick, so he hurriedly followed out and said, "Isn't there anything at home that can shelter from the rain?" Umbrella? Hats? Cloth or something? ”

Umbrellas, that's something that only rich people use, but it's a cloth, Li Mo suddenly remembered, "There's still a coat at home, I'll get it." He hurried to the kitchen, and pulled out the corner of the wall behind the cupboard where the pile of miscellaneous items had been woven by himself from straw a few years ago, and although it was covered with dust, it was enough to make do with it when it was shaken off, and at least it would be good to cover it from the rain.

Li Mo gave the coat to Li Shu, "Third brother, put it on quickly, let's go." ”

"Big brother, what about you?" Li Shu asked while dressing.

Li Mo shook his head, "I don't have anything to do." ”

The two walked directly into the rain and mist.

Later, Ershun hurriedly took Lu out, "Da Lang, you wait, I still have a cloth at home, you wait, I'll bring it to you." ”

Li Man stood at the door, watching the three of them walk away together, and he didn't know if Li Mo used someone else's coat, hey, this man is too bad at taking care of himself.

"Fourth brother." Behind him, Li Yan's weak voice suddenly came.

Li Hua sat on the side of the kang and hurriedly replied, "Second brother, I'm here." ”

Li Man hurriedly came over, and saw that Li Yan's eyes were half-open, as if he wanted to struggle to get up, Li Hua hurriedly held him down, "Second brother, you are sick, lie down quickly, the eldest brother and third brother have already gone to find a doctor." ”

"I-" Li Yan didn't seem to expect that he was sick, and his blank eyes looked at Li Man again.

Li Man had to say, "You have a fever." ”

"Oh." Li Yan closed his eyes slightly and said softly, "No wonder it's so uncomfortable." ”

Li Hua hurriedly asked, "Where is it still uncomfortable?" ”

"Fever is like that, fatigue in the body, soreness in the limbs." Li Man answered directly for Li Yan, and then instructed Li Hua, "Go change the basin of warm water again, and it will be more comfortable to help him wipe it." ”

"Hmm." Li Hua hurriedly took the water out of the water again.

Li Yan gently opened his eyes again, and glanced at her with a gloomy look, "Do you think I'm too useless?" ”

It's because he thinks he can toss too much, and he is still raining in cold water, but, looking at him now, Li Man doesn't want to stimulate him, so he just said, "It's just a small illness, it's nothing, the doctor will come in a while, take a look, just take some medicine." ”

"What if" Li Yan's eyes became more and more gloomy, "What if I can't survive?" ”

"How so?" Li Man was taken aback by the gloomy pain in his eyes, "It's just a fever, you are so strong, in my opinion, maybe you don't even need to take medicine, take a day of rest, and you will be fine tomorrow." ”

Li Yan smiled bitterly, what are the poor most afraid of? Sick.

This is especially true in this poor ravine, there are not no people who have died of colds and flu, and even last time there was a person who was bitten by some insect and disappeared in two days.

He felt like a raging fire all over his body right now, and he felt so uncomfortable.

Li Man couldn't quite understand that a big man could think of the idea of death with a slight fever, and when he saw him closed his eyes and was silent, he wanted to go to the kitchen to see why Li Hua hadn't come yet.

She just turned around to leave, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by him, Li Man turned her head to look at him, only to see him with a pair of confused eyes, looking at her pleadingly, "Stay with me." ”

"No, I'm going to see—"

Before she finished speaking, he pulled her to sit on the kang with a hard hand, "Accompany me." ”

"You?" Isn't it quite exciting?

Li Yan had closed her eyes tiredly, but the hand was still holding her wrist tightly, as if she was afraid that she would suddenly run away again.

Li Man shook his head helplessly, he is really a child, he is afraid of being like this if he has a fever?

After a while, Li Hua came over with warm water.

"Why has it been so long?" Li Man picked up the cloth on Li Yan's forehead and rubbed it in warm water.

"The boiling water is gone, and I boiled it again." Li Hua replied, looking at Li Yan, "Second brother, are you better?" ”

Li Yan was also afraid that his younger brother would worry, so he said, "It's better." ”

Li Man saw that his voice was a little hoarse, and hurriedly said to Li Hua, "Pour a bowl of water." ”

"Hmm." Li Hua turned around and went to the kitchen.

Li Yan suddenly smiled lightly, "You are really smooth to call the fourth brother?" ”

What do you say? Li Man gave him a fierce look, wiped his hands and neck, and then put a wet cloth on his forehead.

At this time, Li Hua came over with a bowl of hot water, which had just been boiled and was still very hot.

"Cool it down, I'll give it to your second brother later." Li Man said.

"Hmm." Li Hua nodded, and at the same time, looking at Li Man's eyes, changed slightly, "You know a lot?" ”

"It's all common sense, it's not bad to drink more warm water if you have a fever or cold." Li Man moved the hand that was still held in the palm of Li Yan's hand, and wanted to withdraw it, but his five fingers were like iron tongs, and they were fastened so tightly.

Li Hua saw it at a glance, and saw that Li Man deliberately turned to the side and deliberately covered it, so he pretended not to see anything, and went outside with hot water to cool off, and only brought it in when he felt that he could drink it.

"I'll feed it." Li Man stretched out one hand, and the other hand that was being held moved fiercely.

Sure enough, when Li Yan heard this, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and he obediently let go.

Li Man hurriedly got up, rubbed his reddened hand that was pinched by him, and said to Li Hua, "You feed your second brother to drink more water." ”

Li Hua ran out of the house as if she was running away, the second brother stared at her with wide eyes and an annoyed look, and smiled softly, "Second brother, can you sit up?" ”

Li Yan glanced at him, then pulled the quilt and covered his face, "I don't have an appetite, I don't drink." ”

"Second brother." Li Hua was stunned, how could the second brother be like a child, he helplessly looked at Li Man who was standing at the door.

Li Man didn't expect Li Yan to be temperamental, but the patient was big, so she had to come back again, take the bowl from Li Hua's hand, sit on the edge of the kang, and say to Li Yan who was covered with his head, "You have a fever, you can't cover it with a quilt like this, come, drink some water." As he spoke, he pulled his head down.

The wet cloth fell to the pillow, fine beads of sweat oozed from his smooth forehead, his handsome face was as white as frost, and his dry lips were almost bloodless.

It's all like this, hey, Li Man gritted his teeth and looked at him, scooped a spoonful of water and handed it to his lips, "Come, drink some." ”

Li Yan slowly opened his eyes, looked at him for a moment, and then, his lips opened slightly.

Really picky? The corners of Li Man's mouth twitched slightly, and he shallowly put a mouthful of water into his mouth.

He swallowed slowly, frowning, "It's so light, it's not delicious." ”

"You're sick and your mouth is dull, come on, drink some more." Li Man explained softly, scooping another spoonful and handing it to his lips.

"I really don't want to drink it." Li Yan's brows were almost knotted, but it seemed that for the sake of Li Man's attentive service, he reluctantly opened his mouth and took another mouthful.

Li Man fed it spoonful after spoonful, probably feeling more comfortable after drinking water, Li Yan didn't make any more trouble, and obediently drank one bite at a time.

After drinking a bowl of water, Li Man got up and told Li Hua, "You look at him and help him wipe his body from time to time, he is okay now." If you really burn the people unconscious, come back to me when you are talking nonsense. ”

"Where are you going?" Hearing this, Li Yan hadn't said anything yet, and Li Yan had already glared at her anxiously.

"You can get some rest." Li Man dropped a sentence euphemistically, turned around and walked out of the house, with his own presence, that guy probably didn't rest well.

"It's really ruthless." Li Yan gritted his teeth a little, and refused to accompany him more even when he was sick.

"Second brother." Li Hua wiped his palms for him and said, "You can sleep first, the eldest brother and the third brother should come back in a while." ”

"Oh." Li Yan closed his eyes helplessly, he was really uncomfortable, and he really fell asleep in a daze.

Li Man just went to the kitchen for a while, opened the window for ventilation, and then cleaned up the pile of clutter in the corner of the wall that was messed up by Li Mo, piled up the things that were not needed in a corner, and planned to find a space to throw them all out.

After finishing his work, he washed his hands and returned to the East House, where Li Hua was still sitting on the kang head, and Li Yan was already asleep.

Li Man walked over lightly and asked in a low voice, "Why haven't they come back yet, your eldest brother?" Is the doctor far away? ”

"It should be soon." Li Hua is actually very anxious, there is only one old doctor in Shennugou, who lives in a village two miles away from here, and it is raining again today, and the road must not be easy to walk, he is very worried that the doctor will not be able to invite him, so he asked the eldest brother to bring more silver, in case the doctor does not come, it is good to come back with some medicine.

"Oh." Li Man looked at Li Yan, fell asleep, his breathing was still quite heavy, and he reached out and touched his forehead, it was still quite hot.

Li Hua looked at her with a worried face and comforted, "Don't worry, the doctor should be here in a while." ”

"Hmm." In modern times, she would definitely not be worried, but in this era, there is a lack of medicine, and she is not afraid that he will die, but she is afraid that his condition will worsen and she will get pneumonia or tuberculosis or something.

"By the way, you also need to drink more boiled water." Li Man thought that Li Hua had also been drenched in the rain before, so he hurriedly pulled him out, went to the door, and said, "You are here to stand at the meeting, the house is stuffy, I will pour you some boiling water." ”

"No, I'll do it myself." Li Hua said politely.

Li Man didn't listen to him anymore, and went to the kitchen to pour him a big bowl of boiling water, "Drink more, it's easy to catch a cold and fever in such a season, it's better to drink more boiling water." ”

"You don't drink?" Li Hua took the bowl and asked her again.

"Oh, I'll drink it later." Li Man said, remembered something, hurriedly went to the east room, climbed to the top of the kang, and opened the window a little bit, which would not blow Li Yan, but also make the air in the room better, and then, looking at the thin quilt on Li Yan's body, he felt that it was not appropriate, and picked up the sheet painted by Li again, and covered him shallowly.

Li Hua stood at the door, watching her every move, and when she came out, she couldn't help but wonder, "Are you like this?" ”

"He's having a fever, he's hot, and the quilt will cover him." Li Man replied, and saw that the water in his bowl was not moving, so he said, "Drink it quickly, it will be cold in a while." ”

"Oh." Li Hua drank the water, but he was still not at ease in his heart, and after drinking, he still couldn't help but say, "However, I heard that if you have a fever and a cold, you should cover the quilt more and cover it with sweat." ”

"Covering sweat is one way, but if you don't get it right, it will cause other complications." Li Man explained, "Actually, fever itself is not a disease, but a symptom, what we are doing now is to help him physically cool down——"

Looking at Li Hua's straight eyes, Li Man suddenly realized that he had said too much, and laughed dryly, "Actually, I don't understand, but I heard what the old man said, and the doctor will come in a while, listen to what he has to say." ”

"Hmm." Li Hua nodded, but there were more doubts about her in her heart, her daughter-in-law not only can read and write, but also understand medical science?

In the house, Li Yan fell into a deep sleep, during which Li Man wiped his palms, feet, neck, armpits with wine, and then used a cold cloth to help him cover his forehead, and changed it from time to time.

Li Hua watched from the side, admiring Li Man for knowing a lot, and rejoicing at the improvement of the second brother.

It's just that Li Mo and Li Shu didn't go home for half a day, Li Hua and Li Man were worried about them, the road was slippery on a rainy day, don't something go wrong?

Seeing that the sky was darkening, Li Hua wanted to find the eldest brother and the third brother, but he was not worried that Li Man was home alone.

"Let's wait." Seeing that Li Hua was anxious, Li Man comforted him like this, "What about your eldest brother and third brother, there will be nothing wrong, maybe, the doctor is busy today, they waited a little longer." ”

I can only hope that this is the case, but fortunately, the second brother's situation has improved.

Not long after, Xiao Wu came back.

The little guy who didn't see a figure in the middle of the afternoon, when he came back, he was covered in mud and water like a little clay figure, which really scared Li Hua and Li Man.

"What's wrong with you? Fell? Li Hua hurriedly went to the door and turned him around to make sure that he was okay before reassuring.

Xiao Wu's visceral little face held back his crying, and he choked up and said to the fourth brother, "It was the stone that pushed me." ”

"Who is the stone?" Li Man asked while finding Xiao Wu's clothes in the big cabinet.

"It's a stone." Xiao Wu cried to his family while wiping his tears, "The sluice gate I made, he had to release water, and if I didn't let it, he pushed me." ”

The children here usually don't have much to play, when it rains, the adults are in trouble first, they are profitable, and the children of a village like to run to the entrance of the village, barefoot, stepping in the muddy water, and then row out a small diving ditch to make a sluice to play.

Xiao Wu is also a keen fan of this kind of game, after lunch, I heard the sound of children playing outside, and I couldn't help running out, who knows, he is small and thin, and the children in the village love to bully him.

When you go out, you have a good time, and when you come back, it will be like this.

"Who told you to play with him again, last time your nose bleeds, don't you remember?" Li Hua looked at his younger brother's miserable little appearance, angry and painful.

Li Man came out with clean clothes, rubbed Xiao Wu's head, and said to Li Hua, "Boy, it's normal to like to fight, don't discipline him, go, Xiao Wu, my sister will give you a bath." ”

As he spoke, he took Xiao Wu from Li Hua's hand and led him into the kitchen.

"You're about to take off your wet clothes." Li Man put the bathtub and instructed Xiao Wu while mixing it with water.

Xiao Wu bit her lip, and when she saw Li Man's posture of wanting to bathe her, her left foot kept stepping on her right foot.

"Get out of here." Li Man had already mixed the water, and seeing that Xiao Wu was still grinding, he got up and pulled him to him, and said with a smile, "Little thing, are you still shy?" So saying, he began to undress him.

Xiao Wu was really a shy child, his body shrank, and he shouted, "Sister, I will wash it myself." ”

"Can you wash?" Li Man didn't believe it, and while stripping him neatly, he teased, "Then why do I see that there is plaster on the back of your neck?" I don't know how to rub it when I take a bath. ”

"I-" took off his shirt and pants, Xiao Wu didn't let Li Man take it off, and his legs were pressed together.

Li Man glared at him angrily, "Little thing, how old are you?" ”

While calling Li to come over.

Li was in that room, because Li Yan woke up, said a few words, and when he heard the call, he hurriedly ran over.

Li Man gave Li Hua a bath cloth and said, "You give him a good life to wash, this hair also has to be washed, and there is a lot of mud on it, wash it clean." I'll boil some more water, and I'll mix it when it's cool. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the gourd scoop, scooped a few scoops of water from the water tank and poured it into the cauldron, covered the pot, and then went to the back of the stove to make a fire.

Who knows, this rainy day fire fold is also damp, how can not fight, she spent a long time, no sparks at all, can't help but be discouraged.

Li Hua had already helped the little brother wash his hair, and when he heard Li Man's depressed muttering at the bottom of the pot, he wrapped the dry cloth around Xiao Wu's head and went over by himself, "Can't you fight?" ”

"Hmm." Li Man hurriedly got up and gave him the fire fold, "Come on, I'll wash Xiao Wu." ”

As he spoke, he came to Xiao Wu's side.

Xiao Wu was wiping his hair with a dry cloth, and when he saw Li Man coming again, he shrank back in a panic, and he couldn't wait to hide in the bathtub.

Li Man couldn't help laughing, squatted down, leaned over, grabbed his arm, and wiped it on him with a wet cloth.

"You just hide, I'll wash you too, if you don't wash it, you want to come out."

Xiao Wu's white and tender little face was instantly red and could drip blood, and he didn't dare to look at Li Man anymore, and his head could touch the edge of the basin.

Li Man doesn't care, it's just such a child, according to modern times, she can be a, in fact, in her heart, she really treats him as her own child.

Wash the mud off his body with a damp cloth, and then rub his ashes with your hands.

Xiao Wu felt so itchy that he couldn't help but smile, and his little body moved around in the bathtub.

Li Man held him down with one hand, rubbed it quickly with the other hand, and when he felt that it was clean, he asked Li Hua to mix the boiling water, so he washed Xiao Wu's whole body from head to toe with boiling water, and then dried it with a dry cloth, wrapped it directly in a sheet, and let Li Hua take him to the East House and get dressed slowly.

And Li Man pressed all Xiao Wu's dirty clothes into the bathtub and soaked them, planning to wash them later, there is still hot wood in the pot hole, she can just boil some ginger soup, Xiao Wu must drink some, and when Li Mo and Li Shu come back, they have to drink some too.

I found a piece of old ginger, washed it and cut it into shreds, then put it in a pot and mixed it with water, and after boiling, Li Man took a small bowl and brought it into the east house.

At this time, Li Yan had already sat up, and Li Hua folded the quilt and put it on his back, so that he would be more comfortable.

Xiao Wu was taught a lesson by Li Hua, and he obediently shrank in his own small quilt, only revealing a small head, and when Li Man came in, he hurriedly retracted his head into the quilt.

"I'm not afraid of being bored." Li Hua glanced at Xiao Wu lightly.

"What?" Li Yan's spirit seemed to be much better, and his eyes were a little more clear, "For me?" ”

"Are you thirsty? Why don't you drink some more water later? Li Man said, while shouting to Xiao Wu, "Get up quickly and drink some ginger soup, otherwise, you will be in trouble if you catch a cold again." ”

Xiao Wu showed a small face, but he was still very embarrassed.

Li Hua pulled him out of the quilt and took the bowl in Li Man's hand and gave it to him, "Drink it while it's hot." ”

"Oh." Xiao Wu glanced at Li Man, blushing and obediently drinking ginger soup.

Li Yan looked at Li Man from the side, looking at Li Man with a faint gaze, "What about mine?" ”

"I'll pour you some water." Li Man didn't mind his uncle's tone, he could deal with a healthy person, but if he was sick, it would not only affect her, but also the entire Li family.

Li Yan was satisfied when he saw that she was so well-behaved and obedient.

Li Man went to the kitchen and poured another bowl of boiling water, and as soon as he came out, he saw Li Mo and Li Yan rushing into the courtyard with anxious expressions.

"What? Didn't the doctor come? Li Man stood under the eaves and asked.

Li Mo's face was solemn, and Li Shu couldn't wait to complain, "Don't mention it, the doctor is not at home, we went to Shilipu to find the goddess again, but the result is not there, no, it has been delayed until now." ”

"How is the second brother?" Li Mo didn't care about Li Shu, he just walked closer and asked Li Man.

"Much better." Li Man said, "By the way, there is still ginger soup in the pot, you two hurry up and drink some while it's hot." ”

"I'll take a look at the second brother." Li Mo didn't invite a doctor, he felt guilty in his heart, he was really worried that the second brother would have a mistake, when he entered the room and saw Li Yan sitting on the kang head, his spirit was much better than before, a hanging heart finally fell, "Second brother, how do you feel?" Dr. Wang has gone outside the mountain, I don't know when I will be back, I will go and see tomorrow. ”

"Big brother, I'm much better." Li Yan didn't know whether it was beads of sweat or raindrops when he saw his eldest brother's face, and he didn't feel good in his heart.

"That's good." Li Mo came over and stretched out his hand to probe his forehead, it was still a little hot, but it was not so obvious, and he said unconsciously, "It's really better." After saying that, I saw that he was wearing thin clothes, and he didn't even cover the quilt, so he hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover him.

Li Yan pushed, "Big brother, my daughter-in-law said no." ”

Li Mo was stunned for a moment, and when Li Man heard what was being said inside, he came in with a bowl and handed the hot water to Li Yan, "You drink it while it's hot." Then he explained to Li Mo, "He has a fever, and the temperature on his body is high, so I have to dissipate heat and cool him down." ”

Li Mo still doesn't understand after hearing this, doesn't he have to sweat when he has a fever? He was also afraid that the second brother would be in trouble if he was frozen and contracted the wind cold.

Seeing this, Li Hua explained, "Big brother, listen to her, the second brother is indeed much better." ”

Li Mo was surprised, and looked at Li Man in disbelief, was she who made her second brother's illness better?

At this time, Li Shu had obediently drunk a big bowl of ginger soup in the kitchen, and he still had a bowl in his hand, "Big brother, you can also drink some ginger soup boiled by your daughter-in-law." ”

"Oh." Li Mo took the bowl and glanced at Li Man deeply, his eyes flashed with tenderness and warmth, "Thank you." ”

He was like this, Li Man was a little embarrassed, "What's polite, drink it while it's hot, I'm tired all afternoon, I'll rest after drinking." Oh yes. As she spoke, she looked at the feet of the two again, which were all mud, and said, "There is still hot water in the kitchen, you two should soak your feet first." ”

"Soak your feet?" Li Shu also heard this for the first time, in the past, if the feet were dirty, just wash them with water, where to soak them.

Li Man ignored him, and said to Li Mo, "I'll go and wash Xiao Wu's clothes, and the two of you will get some hot water by yourself in a while, and the bubbles will also go to the cold, otherwise walking barefoot in the mud all day long will be easy to get sick." ”

"Okay, I listen to my daughter-in-law." Li Shudao.

Li Mo's face was slightly embarrassed, he was a big man who still soaked his feet or something, but his daughter-in-law said that he would do it.

After Li Yan and Li Mo finished drinking, Li Man took the bowl and went to the kitchen.

In the house, there were only a few Li brothers left.

Xiao Wu retracted into the quilt again, smiling brightly.

Li Shu walked to the side of the kang and asked Li Yan, "Second brother, how are you feeling now?" ”

"Much better." From his brother's sincere greetings, Li Yan's heart is still warm.

"That's good." Li Shuchang breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't invite a doctor, he and the eldest brother were anxious and angry, on the way back, the eldest brother was in a hurry, passed by a pond, and almost slipped in, fortunately grabbed a branch on the shore, so he didn't fall into the water.

"Okay, third brother, let your second brother rest and recuperate." Li Mo glanced at Li Yan, and then said to Li Shu, while pulling him out of the room and going straight to the kitchen.

Li Shu suddenly remembered, by the way, I still have to wash my feet and soak my feet.

In the kitchen, Li Man was washing Xiao Wu's clothes, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he said, "Hot water has been scooped into the bucket for you, and you must put on your shoes after washing, and you are not allowed to walk barefoot." ”

"Hmm." Li Mo answered, picked up the bucket, and walked out, Li Shu hurriedly took the footbasin and followed.

The two of them first poured into the well to wash the mud off their feet, then moved a stool, sat under the eaves, and soaked their feet in hot water together.

Walking barefoot on the muddy road, the soles of the feet are cold and numb, which suddenly soaks in the hot water, which makes people gasp comfortably.

"It's so comfortable." Li Yan took a deep breath and turned his head to look into the kitchen, "My daughter-in-law is so nice." ”

Li Mo smiled slightly, looking at Li Man's gaze, becoming more and more hot and gentle.

——

After washing the clothes, Li Man moved the bamboo pole under the eaves to his house, so he hung up Xiao Wu's clothes and then said, maybe he had to wash them again when the weather cleared.

After finishing her busy work, she went back to the east house to look, Li Yan had no serious signs, and she breathed a sigh of relief, and returned to the kitchen silently and began to prepare dinner.

Li Mo saw that his brothers were all in the house, so he thought of helping Li Man in the kitchen, but he went so rashly, and felt a little embarrassed in front of his younger brothers, after all, even the third brother Li Shu didn't rush to go, would it be too much if he went

"Big brother, she can't make a fire, you go and help." Li Hua sat by the window, took a book and looked at it, and when he saw that Li Mo was absent-minded, he said in a low voice.

"Huh? Oh. Li Mo's face turned red, and his eyes swept over Li Yan and Li Shu.

Li Yan closed his eyes, Li Shu and Xiao Wu gathered around Li Hua, and asked him what the book said.

"Then I'll take a look." Li Mo said in a low voice, and hurriedly turned around and walked out, as if he was afraid that Li Shu would take the lead.

Li Man wanted to eat some noodles at noon, but Li Yan was sick, and the others were also drenched in the rain, so it was better to eat some hot noodles to warm her stomach, so she scooped some flour and mixed the noodles in a vegetable pot.

It was getting dark, and the light in the kitchen was dimming.

Li Mo came in and saw her standing by the window kneading dough, so he helped light the oil lamp, and then put the oil lamp on the edge of the pot, and the orange warm light instantly warmed people's hearts, sweeping away the haze of this rainy day.

"Noodles at night?" Li Mo stood beside her, tilted his head slightly, stared at her soft side face, and asked as if unintentionally.

"Hmm. Let's make some gnocchi, it's easy to digest. Li Man said while kneading the dough.

"Hmm." Li Mo snorted and leaned against the side of the pot, thinking if he could help something.

Li Man rubbed it for a while, and just reached out to take the scoop and add some water to the noodles, Li Mo took the initiative to help her hand the gourd scoop to her.

"You?" Li Man was stunned, "Why don't you stop?" ”

The slightly open window suddenly blew in a cool breeze, and the lights jumped suddenly, Li Mo hurriedly blocked it with his hand, and replied, "I'll light the fire." ”

The kitchen was not big, and the light was dim, Li Mo stood beside her, and a huge shadow covered her, making her suddenly feel an indescribable sense of oppression, "No, I'll just be alone, and don't stir-fry any vegetables, just put the noodles in the pot and boil." ”

"I'll do it." Li Mo glanced at her warmly, turned around and went to the stove to prepare for a fire, but as soon as he took the firewood, he suddenly thought of something, and got up and walked over.

Seeing him suddenly approaching again, his expression was tense, his eyes were burning and excited, Li Man was inexplicably a little panicked, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"This." Li Mo suddenly didn't dare to look at her, but quickly took out the marriage rope that had been in his arms for a day and stuffed it into her hand, "This is for you." ”
