The Ironborn got off the train and took the last bus back to the town.

He lingered at the door of the house for a long time, not daring to enter the house. It was not until the lights in the house went out that he tiptoed into the yard.

When he opened the door of the lower room, a rush of hot air hit his face. He stopped unconsciously, worried that Liu Dongmei had already moved into the lower room.

He listened carefully and found no movement in the house, so he tentatively walked into the house on crutches.

In the dark light, one of his crutches hit the coal shovel and made a "crash" sound. He held his breath and stood there without daring to move.

After a while, there was no movement in the room, so he took courage and walked slowly into the room.

In the faint moonlight, the Ironborn saw that their wooden bed had turned into a small fire bed, and it was still warm when touched with their hands.

Liu Dongmei is also very capable.

With this thought in mind, he turned on the light.

In the empty room, there were a few wooden boards stacked in the corner, which were the same boards Liu Dongmei had used when laying his bed.

The bedding is gone.

On the small fire kang surface, after the yellow mud is dried, turtle-like cracks are left.

Tiemin used a crutch with one hand and laid a few wooden boards on the fire kang. Then he turned off the light, put on his clothes and lay down on the wooden boards. He felt very comfortable.

People who have worked in a shunting team do not have high requirements for a sleeping place, as long as it can be paved and padded firmly and protected from wind and cold.

The ironborn was very tired, and soon after he lay down, he began to snore.

He didn't know how long he had slept. He felt that his whole body was uncomfortably hot, so he subconsciously unbuttoned his clothes and turned over.

Well, why are you covered with a quilt?

He opened his eyes in his sleep and found a person sitting by the kang in the darkness. He was startled, sat up quickly and asked, "Who is it?"

"I woke you up." Liu Dongmei looked at Tiemin with sleepy eyes.

Oh my god, Ironborn couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Dongmei turned on the light, and Tie Min saw Liu Dongmei sitting there wearing a shirt and underpants with fluffy hair.

"How did you get in?" Ironman moved his injured foot and started to get off the ground.

"Don't move." Liu Dongmei held down Tie Min's legs and said, "The family is still sleeping, don't wake them up."

"You should go back to sleep too." Tiemin subconsciously buttoned up his shirt.

"Brother, are you so annoying to me?" Liu Dongmei's face was filled with sadness, and she was about to shed tears as she spoke.

"No." Tie Min replied politely. To be precise, he was not annoyed with Liu Dongmei, but afraid.

"Where have you been these past few days?" Liu Dongmei held back her tears.

"I have gone on a long journey," Ironborn said.

Liu Dongmei couldn't help but look at Tiemin, who looked disheveled and looked like a blind drifter.

"If you really don't want me to live at home, I'll leave tomorrow." Liu Dongmei released a smoke bomb, and Tie Min was immediately hit. He said, "No, I don't mean that."

Liu Dongmei really wanted to pounce on him and act as coquettishly as she could in Tie Min's arms.

Ironborn is so cute that if you use your brain a little, he will fall for it.

Tie Min's words were a completely unconscious reply, but they gave Liu Dongmei a reason to settle down.

I don't want to live in your house anymore, you won't let me leave.

Don't call Liu Dongmei a scoundrel. As long as we stand in her perspective and weigh the current situation, we estimate that anyone would be like her.

Use everything you have, every word and every sentence that can make your wishes come true, to encourage yourself, to unleash your willful potential, and to do your best to fulfill your long-cherished wishes.

"Go to sleep, I'll watch you here." Liu Dongmei couldn't hold her tongue straight, and her voice gradually became squeaky.

Unconsciously, Tiemin's hormones were mobilized by Liu Dongmei, and his animal instincts were brought out without reservation, which was simply called hard.

"Get up." Liu Dongmei said something irrelevant, which made Tiemin very nervous. She added, "I'll make a bed for you so you can sleep more comfortably."

Tie Min mechanically put one leg on the ground and stood aside. Liu Dongmei spread the large plastic sheet prepared in advance on the wooden board, laid out the mattress, and put in place pillows.

"Lie down." Liu Dongmei's voice was soft, and Tie Min obeyed one by one.

"Wait a minute," Liu Dongmei said when Tiemin was about to put on his clothes and lie down, "Take off your clothes, it will be more comfortable to sleep that way."

Before Tiemin could react, Liu Dongmei had already walked over, unbuttoned Tiemin's clothes, and took off his coat without allowing Tiemin to make any excuse. Then, she squatted on the ground, took off one of Tiemin's socks, and

He frowned unconsciously.

A pungent stench penetrated Ironborn's nostrils. He didn't wash his face or brush his teeth for three days in a row, let alone wash his face and feet.

The Ironborn lay down and covered himself with the quilt.

Liu Dongmei's hand reached into his waist, grabbed the waistband of his trousers, and with a little force, she untied the waistband and took off his trousers.

Liu Dongmei suddenly blushed and looked extremely nervous.

I'm going!

Tiemin glanced down and saw that his second brother, who was extremely expressive, was actually in a fighting state.

He swung his legs and turned his back to Liu Dongmei, covering up his embarrassment in time.

Liu Dongmei was also able to slowly take off one of his trouser legs. Just when Liu Dongmei was carefully trying to take off Tiemin's plastered trouser leg, Tiemin let out an "ouch" without realizing it.

"I hurt you." Liu Dongmei said with concern.

"It's okay." Tiemin gritted his teeth and insisted, hoping that Liu Dongmei would leave here as soon as possible.

Liu Dongmei took off Tie Min's pants, touched Tie Min's smelly feet, and said in surprise: "Brother, you have a fever."

Before Ironborn could say anything, she put her hand, which smelled of foot odor, on Ironborn's forehead, then stood up and left.

Oh my god, she finally left.

The Ironborn sighed, turned off the light, and closed his eyes.

People who work on the fourth shift on the railway must practice a sleeping routine: lie down for no more than ten minutes before falling asleep. Otherwise, during the night shift, you can only use matchsticks to prop up and down your eyelids and keep your eyes open.

, not sleeping state.

Tiemin works as a shunting captain, and he has to stay up all night until dawn during the night shift. During this period, he only has an hour's rest time at 2 a.m. when the shunting machine is put into the warehouse for maintenance.

During this hour, Ironborn would spend ten minutes eating, and then find a place to fall asleep. This would guarantee him half an hour of deep sleep, and he would feel refreshed until he returned home from get off work the next morning.

Therefore, in this warm environment, the ironborn couldn't care less about the headache and fever as soon as they closed their eyes. Within a few minutes, they would be snoring loudly.

Just as Ironborn was about to fall asleep, there were footsteps outside the door.

His heart began to beat violently, fearing that Liu Dongmei's return this time might break his bottom line.

"Click" the light turned on.

Ironborn closed his eyes and held his breath, not daring to open his eyes.

A warm hand pressed on his forehead. Then Aunt Zhou's voice came: "Oh, I really have a fever."

Tiemin opened his eyes and saw Aunt Zhou holding a thermos bottle and a teapot in one hand. She moved her other hand away from Tiemin's forehead and cursed in a low voice: "You big bastard, where have you been these days?"

When Tiemin saw it was his mother, he was nervous, but quickly regained his composure and said, "Why did I wake you up?"

"Stop talking nonsense, get up and take medicine." Aunt Zhou searched around and could only place the thermos bottle and tea jar next to the ironman's pillow.

She pulled out a medicine bag from her pocket, which contained various anti-inflammatory drugs prescribed by the doctor for Ironborn's injury, as well as a box of paracetamol tablets.

There were footsteps outside the door again, and Liu Dongmei came in carrying a folding round table. She set up the round table, took the thermos bottle that Aunt Zhou had brought, poured half a tank of hot water for Tiemin, and brought it to her mouth to blow on it.

Aunt Zhou looked at Tie Min, then turned to Liu Dongmei, and seemed to be saying to herself: "What kind of virtue have you accumulated in your life, so that you can meet Dongmei in this life. If it weren't for her missing you, no one would know that you are back. So excited

If you go down, that's fine."

Aunt Zhou put a bunch of pills in her hand into Tie Min's mouth, and Liu Dongmei brought the water jar to Tie Min's mouth in time. Tie Min took a big drink of water, swallowed it with a "gudong" sound, and then drank a few more water.

"Okay, let's go back to sleep." Tiemin lay down and pulled the quilt over his head.

Aunt Zhou stood there with a playful smile, hesitated, and stopped talking.

Her original intention was to hope that Liu Dongmei would stay and take care of Tiemin, which would fulfill her and the master's wishes.

The two of them have been living together for a long time. Regardless of whether he has other affairs or not, Tie Min can only admit his fault. Liu Dongmei will be the one in this life.

Liu Dongmei understood Aunt Zhou's meaning. She stood there with a hot face and didn't know how to deal with it.

When she took off Tiemen's pants, she saw Tiemen's unusual reaction. She was both nervous and excited.

This was a scene she had never seen before, and she knew what this state of the Ironborn meant.

Since she wanted to marry an Ironborn, this would happen sooner or later, so she handed over the decision-making power to the Ironborn. She even hoped that the Ironborn would make the next move, put her in his arms, or simply get to the point.

As a woman who has never had this kind of experience and has been educated in traditional thinking since childhood, she will instinctively resist and struggle. This is definitely superficial.

Hypocritical rejection, as long as the Ironborn has a little sense of compulsion, or goes straight to the topic without caring, she will surrender obediently and complete a major change in her life.

Aunt Zhou almost said it directly.

She felt depressed for a few moments, then laughed and wanted to remind Liu Dongmei: What a great opportunity, why are you so shy?
