Lu Haoting took the raincoat from the house and handed it to Zuo Jingyan, saying domineeringly:

"Put it on."

"Thanks."

Zuo Jingyan sincerely thanked her. Although Lu Haoting was cold and reticent, he was really heart-warming in his actions.

Lu Haoting helped her carry the toolbox, and the couple walked into the house one after another. Zuo Jingyan shouted out of habit:

"mom!"

No response, no one in the room!

Zuo Jingyan looked back at Lu Haoting:

"Where's mom?"

"She went back to her hometown."

Lu Haoting put the toolbox on the ground, threw a towel to Zuo Jingyan, rolled up his sleeves and walked to the kitchen, saying as he walked:

"You go back to the house first and change into dry clothes, dry the water on your body with a towel, and cover yourself with a quilt."

Suddenly she and Lu Haoting were alone at home. Zuo Jingyan felt uncomfortable and a little sad. Her mother-in-law left without warning, without even giving her a chance to say goodbye.

When your mother-in-law is gone, make her something delicious to eat on the way. My mother-in-law is used to being thrifty, so she will be reluctant to buy food on the train.

Zuo Jingyan took the towel and was thinking about going back to the house to change clothes. She was soaked all over. She took it off and used the towel to dry the water on her body and put on clean clothes, but she still couldn't get rid of the cold.

Shivering chill.

It would be great if I could take a hot bath, drink a bowl of ginger soup, and cover myself with a quilt to sweat.

Lu Haoting was busy in the kitchen, boiling a large pot of water, but couldn't find ginger. He ran to Sister-in-law Jiang and asked for a piece, cut it into large pieces and put it in a bowl. He was afraid that Zuo Jingyan would find it too spicy and put some sugar in it.

His hair was still dripping and the clothes on his body were soaked, but he ignored it and concentrated on waiting for the water to boil.

After thinking about it, he should cook some hot porridge for Zuo Jingyan. He went to wash rice again and cooked porridge in a vat during field training. Now it comes in handy.

He took a large iron pot and filled it halfway with water, poured the rice in, and only waited for the water in the teapot to boil before placing the iron pot on the kerosene stove.

Fortunately, the water boiled soon. Lu Haoting took the kettle and brewed the ginger syrup first, then poured out a vat to cool down and give it to Zuo Jingyan for medicinal use.

He poured the remaining hot water into the footbath and mixed it with some cold water. He held the ginger water in one hand and the footbath in the other and walked to the door of Zuo Jingyan's house.

Looking at the closed door and thinking that Zuo Jingyan might be changing clothes, Lu Haoting did not push the door rashly and went in. He stood at the door and called her to open the door.

Zuo Jingyan was lying on the bed covered with a quilt. When she heard the knock on the door, she reluctantly got up, went over to open the door, and leaned against the wall weakly.

As soon as the door opened, Lu Haoting realized something was wrong. Zuo Jingyan's face was red and wilted. She was leaning against the wall weakly, as if she would fall down at any time. He hurriedly asked her:

"Why is your face so red?"

"fine."

Zuo Jingyan shook her head vigorously, feeling groggy, as if her head was being pressed by a millstone, and her eyelids were pressed together.

"He said it was okay."

Lu Haoting was really worried. He put the ginger water on the table and the footbath and put it on the floor. He came over and helped Zuo Jingyan back to the bed with half a hand and half a hug. He put her in his arms and said in a low voice:

"Lean against me, soak your feet in hot water to force the cold out, and then drink some hot ginger water."

Zuo Jingyan felt that she couldn't exert any strength in her body. She couldn't leave the broad and strong embrace, so she had to rely on him.

Lu Haoting bent down to help her take off her socks and put her feet into the hot water basin. Zuo Jingyan snorted in comfort. Lu Haoting glanced at her and gave her ginger water to drink.

But Zuo Jingyan was already feverish, and she didn't cooperate to open her mouth. She closed her eyes and fell asleep in Lu Haoting's arms.

Lu Haoting had no choice but to hold her cheeks and feed her little by little with a small spoon. He didn't dare to pour more water for fear of choking her. He was careful. After feeding her a bowl of water, his forehead was sweating. Fortunately, Zuo Jingyan drank all of it.

!

Zuo Jingyan's fever became more and more severe, her body was as hot as a fireball, and her head was buzzing as if a train was running.

"You can't be sick. If you are sick, you can't make money. If you can't make money, you can't pay the final payment, and the house will be lost. Well, I have to make money, make money!"

Zuo Jingyan was talking nonsense unconsciously. Lu Haoting's ear was right next to her mouth and he heard clearly. His thick eyebrows could not help but frown together.

She really bought a house, wasn't she just lying to herself with her angry words?

It's just that the house didn't seem to have the final payment, and she was very anxious! Lu Haoting looked down at the feeble woman who was suffering from a high fever, and coaxed her like a child:

"I made porridge. You can eat some porridge later and then take the medicine. Once you sweat, you'll be fine."

"Take medicine, I want to take medicine. Once I take medicine, I'll be fine. Once I'm fine, I can make money."

Zuo Jingyan reluctantly opened her eyes after hearing the medicine, and struggled to get up from Lu Haoting's arms.

Lu Haoting hurriedly held her down, laid her sideways on the bed, wiped the water on her feet with a towel, put her legs on the bed and covered her with a quilt.

Zuo Jingyan was speechless. She grabbed the quilt and wrapped herself in it, even covering her head.

Lu Haoting was worried so he gave her antipyretic medicine first and coaxed her softly:

"Lie down for a while, the porridge will be ready soon."

He sat by the bed and watched her for a while, touching her forehead from time to time. He felt that it was getting hotter and hotter. He couldn't sit still, and the fever didn't go away even after taking medicine. He couldn't hold on like this anymore.

He went out to put out the fire in the kitchen, took the car keys, and carried Zuo Jingyan and the quilt into the car.

Qin Feng was lying on the bed in the clinic getting an intravenous drip. He was dehydrated and had no strength. The hygienist in the clinic was taking care of him. After getting a little better after the injection, he closed his eyes and rested. Lu Haoting's shout instantly cheered him up.

"Doctor, doctor, please show my wife."

Qin Fenglun sat up and looked out the door with wide eyes. What happened to my sister-in-law?

Qin Feng shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Lao Lu, Lao Lu, what happened to my sister-in-law?"

"I got caught in the rain and have a high fever!"

Lu Haoting replied outside the house, followed the doctor into the doctor's office with his wife in his arms.

"Take your temperature first."

Military doctor Lao Lu took out the thermometer and handed it to Lu Haoting to first determine the extent of the fever? He pointed at Zuo Jingyan's creaking nest:

"Caught in a creaky nest."

Lu Haoting took the thermometer and hesitated for a moment. Putting the thermometer in the creak would easily touch sensitive areas. Would Zuo Jingyan think that he was taking advantage of her illness?

But now he didn't care so much. Lu Haoting unbuttoned Zuo Jingyan's collar and unbuttoned two more buttons. When it was enough, he put the thermometer under Zuo Jingyan's creaking nest.

He had tried his best to pay attention, but his finger still touched the sensitive part. He pulled his hand out as if he was electrocuted, and his whole body felt as if he had a fever.

"Lao Lu, is sister-in-law okay?"

Qin Feng walked into the house with a bottle in one hand. When he entered the door, he saw Lu Haoting putting a thermometer on Zuo Jingyan. Why did he feel that Lao Lu was blushing?

“I have a high fever and I don’t know what to do!”

Lu Haoting calmed down and calmly told Qin Feng that he just felt like there was fire coming out of his throat and his face was feeling warm.

"Did it rain?"

Qin Feng was very concerned about Zuo Jingyan and leaned over to take a look. Lu Haoting blocked Zuo Jingyan's chest with his big hand and raised his eyes to stare at him.

"ah."

Qin Feng blushed, and his sister-in-law's clothes were unbuttoned, but he didn't see anything, only Lao Lu's hand.
