They nodded and began to eat. Li Chenmo also picked up the chopsticks and tasted the noodles. Although the taste is not as good as that sold in state-run restaurants, it still has the taste he was familiar with when he was a child. When he was a soldier, he ate very fast. So, in less than ten minutes, they finished the bowl of noodles.
When Father Li brought ginger tea in, they had already finished their noodles. Without saying anything, he handed them the ginger tea.
After drinking tea, they felt warm and went to another room to rest. There are three rooms in father Li's house, one is Li Chenmo's, one is father Li's, and one is the guest room. When there were only the two of them left, Father Li could finally examine Li Chenmo's injuries carefully.
Seeing the wound on his stomach, he sighed and said, "It's also good to return. At least I don't have to worry about your safety."
Father Li learned from the expressions of his son's comrades-in-arms that his son could no longer continue to work in the army due to his injuries. While regretting, he also felt relieved. It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel scared when he saw his son being carried back covered in injuries. As long as he is alive, nothing is more important. It's just that father Li doesn't know if Li Chenmo will limp in the future.
Noticing his father's gaze, Li Chenmo said, "The doctor said it will take me two months to recover. After two months, I need to go for another checkup."
After hesitating for a while, Father Li finally asked, "Can your leg recover completely?"
This time, Li Chenmo lowered his eyelids to hide his emotions, and said in a low voice, "I may be a little limp after recovery, but it won't affect my daily life."
Although he had already guessed it, Father Li was still shaken when he heard his words. Now, with his son's confirmation, he worried that the Lu family might not agree to continue the marriage contract. After all, a limp was a disadvantage in an era when people had to work in the fields. What's more, Li Chenmo couldn't work due to injury in the next few months.
Li Chenmo seemed to understand his father's worries, and said, "Father, I will find time to talk to Lu Jueyu. If she is not willing, I will not force this marriage."
Father Li was taken aback by his words. After all, he knew that his third son had had feelings for this girl for many years. In less than two months, he could marry her. But now, he said he wanted her to choose. What if the girl is unwilling to marry him after knowing his condition? Won't he regret it later?
"Father, don't you worry," he added with a smile.
Seeing that he was calm, Father Li could only agree and let him rest. When Father Li left the room, Li Chenmo took out a pair of red hair clips from his pocket. This hair clip was bought for her before he was injured. The moment he saw the hair clip, he could imagine what she would look like with it on. But now, he didn't know if he could give it to her.
With a heavy heart, he closed his eyes and forced himself to stop thinking. He should focus on his recovery and get well as quickly as possible.
At the same time, in Lu's house, a doctor was checking the pulse of a girl. The girl was lying on Kang bed with her eyes closed. Her face was flushed with a high fever, and she kept mumbling incoherently.
"Doctor, how is my daughter?" Mother Lu asked worriedly.
The doctor frowned and took out a bottle of medicine from the box.
"Give her a spoonful every three hours. If the fever subsides tomorrow, it will be fine." The doctor said with a heavy tone.
After hearing his words, everyone understood what he meant. If Lu Jueyu's fever is not cured tomorrow, she may lose her life.
After hearing what the doctor said, Mother Lu's knees went limp. Seeing Mother Lu's appearance, everyone was stunned.
"Mother!" Lu Han and Lu Cheng hurried over to hold her body.
"Mother, you and Father should go back and rest first. I will take care of Jueyu," said the eldest daughter-in-law.
Father Lu looked at his wife and unconscious daughter, and said, "Wife, you should also take a rest. Dalang's wife will take care of Jueyu."
Mother Lu was sobbing and could only nod her head. She knew that even if she stayed up all night, she couldn't help her daughter.
After everyone dispersed, Lu Han's wife, Chen Anwen, sat by the bed and wiped Lu Jueyu's forehead with a warm towel. She looked at her sister-in-law and sighed.
"Ah Yu, please wake up, alright? If anything happens to you, what should mother and father do?" She said with a hint of worry.
Although she knew that Lu Jueyu couldn't hear her, she couldn't help but say this. Although everyone thought that Lu Jueyu was the one who plotted against Li Chenmo and forced him to marry her, both the Lu family and the Li family knew that this was far from the case.
When the villagers came to the foot of the mountain, they saw Lu Jueyu pressing on Li Chenmo's body, their clothes were messed up. So, they think she's forcing herself. After returning home, Lu Jueyu told them the truth.
That day, she went into the mountains to look for wild vegetables and pigweeds. On the way back, she felt someone push her from behind. If Li Chenmo hadn't saved her, she might have fallen to her death. She didn't know why everyone suddenly appeared there and found them in that embarrassing situation.
With her naive personality, it is impossible for Lu Jueyu to understand the situation. But Chen Anwen was different. Just from her words and the situation at that time, she knew that someone was plotting against her sister-in-law.

Because at that time, Chen Anwen saw the son of the Yang family, who was known as a hooligan and a scum, looking at Li Chenmo with hatred and jealousy. At the same time, she also noticed an educated youth twisting her handkerchief with jealousy clear in her eyes when she looked at Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu.
Connecting the clues together, she can guess that the son of the Yang family and the educated youth teamed up to plot against Lu Jueyu. At first, she didn't understand why an educated youth wanted to harm her sister-in-law, who was clearly only a daughter of a farmer. She inquired around and found out that the educated youth had feelings for Li Chenmo.
As for the son of the Yang family, he has long coveted Lu Jueyu's beauty. After Chen Anwen found out, she told the Lu family. Although they were unwilling to betroth Lu Jueyu to Li Chenmo, they had no other choice. If they don't betroth her to him, they will be sent to prison. Because of her young age, they agreed to postpone their marriage for two years.
Now that the wedding date is approaching, Lu Jueyu is in a depressed mood. The gossip and rumors in the past two years have brought her a lot of pressure. A few days ago, she fell into the river. No one knows how she fell into the river. Fortunately, she was found by their production team leader's daughter. Otherwise, she would have drowned long ago.
Chen Anwen guarded her all night, but Lu Jueyu was in pain at the moment. Currently, she is having a confusing dream. In her dream, she experiences two lives that intertwine at certain moments. One time, she knew that her dream was the novels she read. But another time, she felt that this was not a dream, but her own life.
There is only one thing similar between the two lives, and that is the young man. In modern times, this young man is her college senior. They had no contact because of their different majors, but for some reason, she always met him by accident.
In another era, he was her benefactor and also her fiancé. In the dream, she only had gratitude for him, without any romantic feelings. Therefore, when she got engaged to him, she was unwilling because she longed for a marriage with love.
At the end of the dream, she saw the young man on the same plane as her, in the seat behind her. When she saw his gentle gaze on her, she panicked and cried out.
"You can't board this plane! Senior, you should leave!"
But no matter how she warned him, he couldn't hear it. When the plane took off, the fear in her heart became more intense. She could only watch him get up from his seat in a panic and hug her before the plane crashed. With an explosion, her eyes snapped open.
When Lu Jueyu suddenly opened her eyes, Chen Anwen was startled. She was sleepy, so she took a nap. When she felt the jolt from the bed and heard Lu Jueyu's heavy panting, she opened her eyes. She looked at her sister-in-law's blank eyes, and her heart trembled.
Her heart beat faster in surprise. Coupled with Lu Jueyu's blank gaze, Chen Anwen felt chilled in her heart. When she came back to her senses, she quickly stood up and patted Lu Jueyu's cheek.
"Jueyu, can you hear me?" she called to her.
Seeing that she didn't respond, she increased her voice and called her again.
"Jueyu! Can you hear me?"
This time, Lu Jueyu's gaze began to regain focus. She looked at the young woman in front of her and nodded. Because of her dreams, she knows who this young woman is. But at that time, she still couldn't tell the difference between dreams and reality.
The young woman hurriedly left the room and came back with a group of people. When they saw her, there was relief and happiness in their eyes. She looked at their faces one by one, and remembered that these people had also appeared in her dreams. It was her life in the 1970s.
Mother and Father Lu saw their daughter looking at them blankly and worried that the high fever had burned her brain. There have been several cases in their village where villagers became stupid due to high fever.
Mother Lu hurried over, held her hand, and asked, "Jueyu, do you know me?"
After a while, Lu Jueyu finally nodded and said hoarsely, "Mother."
They finally breathed a sigh of relief when they heard her hoarsely calling Mother Lu. While they were busy attending to her needs, she was struggling to recall her own memories.
She clearly knew that she was born in modern times and died in a plane crash. The dream she saw was her life, and she had to die. She doesn't know what happened that brought her back to life in a different era, or rather, in the novel she read before she died.
She turned her head and looked at those 'characters'. Their expressions, actions, and words are as real as those people in her previous life. It was hard for her to imagine that everything was just a string of words written by someone.
Lu Jueyu does not think that she is living in the novel, but rather that the novel is actually a bridge connecting this world and the previous world. In other words, she was reborn in a parallel world, and the body she occupied was another 'her'. As for where the other 'she' went, she had no idea. Perhaps, 'she' was already dead and she happened to cross over and occupy the body.
After thinking about it, she decided to live well. Although she heard from her grandparents that life in the 1970s was very difficult in her previous life, she is very grateful that she got a second chance to live. Her only regret is her college senior. If she had sensed his feelings sooner, though briefly, they might have had a chance to be together.
