Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 549: I'm thinking of waiting a while longer until the bride price drops, then I'll

Commander He chuckled, "I'm good friends with Dr. Qiao. I came to visit him during the Chinese New Year!"

"We're doing the same, just showing our appreciation to our outstanding employees!" Dean Huo and Dean Zhang chimed in.

Everyone nodded: "It's the Lunar New Year, we should get together."

After finishing his official business, Lu Yuan heard that Brigade Commander He had gone home, so he jogged home.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a group of people gathered around the stove, drinking tea and chatting. He washed his hands and went back inside to talk to his wife.

Qiao Manman sensed the familiar atmosphere in the room and cautiously opened one eye.

Once she was sure it was the right person, she opened her other eye and playfully made a face at him.

Lu Yuan helped her sit up, supporting her waist: "Should we go out and say hello to them?"

Qiao Manman shook her head: "Anyway, I'll wake up soon, let's just endure it for another day or two!"

"Okay, listen to you!"

Qiao Manman gave him a push: "You should go out quickly, or I'll have to pretend to be asleep again when they come in!"

Lu Yuan nodded, tucked the blanket around her, and went out to visit some elders.

Before she knew it, it was the start of her third year of junior high. After getting up, Qiao Manman went into her spatial dimension to study drawing talismans.

On the fourth day, Qiao Manman tried to refine medicine.

On the fifth day, she used low-grade spirit stones to set up a very simple formation and sent Xie Susu out to spread the news that she had woken up.

With the groundwork laid in the previous days, the neighbors were receptive and came over with curiosity.

They crowded into Qiao Manman's bedroom, looking at her with a sense of wonder.

The buzzing sound gave Xie Susu a headache, but Qiao Manman remained calm and composed.

Because she has a soundproof enclosure, she can have a very quiet environment.

It's quite amusing to watch everyone's mouths open and close.

"Manman just woke up, and her voice isn't clear yet, please don't mind!"

"Sister-in-law Lu is a hero. It's already quite remarkable that she woke up after lying there for so long. How dare we gossip about her?"

Spring planting is just around the corner. I only hope that Sister Lu will get better soon and bring us a better life!

Xie Susu laughed: "My Manman is so small, how can she bear the future of all the military wives in the family compound?"

With leaders backing it up, the project at the Chinese herbal medicine base won't fail.

"You all should go back now; Manman needs to rest. My husband says she needs to practice walking again, so we won't keep you all to watch any longer."

The military wives left, touching their noses: "Do you think it's because our nonsense from a while ago reached Mrs. Lu's ears?"

"Who knows? She probably wouldn't be that petty."

Besides, we weren't exactly talking nonsense back then; men are inherently different from women.

Commander Lu, who can hold out, is extremely rare.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm going home to cook."

By the way, I noticed that Sister Lu's uncle is still staying at home. Has Li Dai come over to wish her a Happy New Year these past few days?

"Well, he's a very busy person; he's out performing."

Previously, they felt that her public appearances were bad for her reputation, so they thought they would wait until the bride price was lowered before sending someone to propose marriage.

Who would have thought that they would make a quick decision and find someone who could be their father?

Haha, what do you think? Did this girl make a profit or a loss?

"Men become more caring as they grow up, but they definitely become useless in that area."

There are gains and losses; consider it as finding a powerful backer who can make money!

"If Xiao Lu's wife hadn't woken up, I would have started to think about other things, but now, I really don't dare to."

"I'm back, you guys chat!"

Qiao Manman cut off the voice in her mind and complained to the system, "These people, their hearts are always filled with dirty thoughts!"

"But if it weren't for Comrade Li Dai taking the 'Unity Pill,' she might actually be competing with you for Lu Yuan!"
