What Lu Zhanlin said was strange, but the sisters-in-law around him were too shocked to pay attention to these details. Instead, they looked at Lu Zhanlin in amazement.
"Captain Lu usually looks cold, but he came back specially to pick up his wife. It turns out he is a caring person."
"Big sister, you've been riding in a car, delivering a baby, and taking care of such a big child. You must be exhausted all day. Go back with Captain Lu and have a rest."
"Yes, you two have finally met each other, so we won't disturb you. We can talk tomorrow. Hurry up and take the children back with Captain Lu."
The sisters-in-law looked between Lu Zhanlin and Chu Yue with ambiguous eyes, as if they had seen how the couple was like newlyweds after a long separation and how passionate they were. Not only did they look at them in ambiguous ways, but they also covered their mouths and laughed from time to time.
There was a constant stream of teasing around him, but Lu Zhanlin stood aside with a calm expression, as if those words were not directed at him.
Humph, it’s just acting, who can’t do it?
Chu Yue patted the steamed bread crumbs on her palms, turned back and reminded Lu Yuanbao, "Yuanbao, let's go home."
As soon as Lu Yuanbao heard Chu Yue's words, he immediately stuffed the remaining small piece of steamed bun into his mouth, and his small figure trotted to catch up.
Chu Yue walked in front, and Lu Yuanbao followed beside her. When he passed in front of Lu Zhanlin, he raised his bright black eyes and glanced at him carefully, trying to see Lu Zhanlin's appearance clearly.
He...looks a lot like his mother.
After Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao left, Lu Zhanlin tactfully picked up the backpack left behind by Chu Yue, the one he had seen on the train.
The moment he picked it up, Lu Zhanlin was a little surprised and found it strangely heavy.
It was not easy for her, a little girl, to be able to lead the whole journey.
Lu Zhanlin turned around and gave Song Qi a look, and ordered in a cold voice, "Go to the military medical team immediately and ask them to send someone to check on the pregnant woman and the child."
"Yes, Captain Lu!"
Song Qi stood at attention and saluted, then took action immediately.
Lu Zhanlin had personally witnessed Chu Yue's quick and efficient bone setting. It wasn't that he didn't trust Chu Yue's midwifery skills, but out of thorough considerations, he wanted to make sure everything was foolproof.
It’s only Chu Yue’s first day in the army, and she cannot be involved in any risks.
After Lu Zhanlin finished doing all this, he took a step forward with his long legs and caught up with Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao.
This time, I really brought my wife and children home.
…
When Lu Zhanlin and Chu Yue left.
An anxious roar from Li Jinhua was heard from Wang Chunling's home.
"Where is my eldest grandson?! Where did my eldest grandson go!... How did you become a little girl! I told you not to have surgery, not to have surgery! But you didn't listen, and now my eldest grandson is gone! You have to compensate me for my eldest grandson..."
“Wow…wow…wow…wow…”
In the house, which had just been quiet for a while, the old man's cursing and the baby's crying could be heard one after another.
…
The house assigned to Lu Zhanlin was in the center of the front row of the compound. It was also a simple small bungalow, but it looked obviously bigger than Wang Chunling's house. The yard in front of the house was also large and spacious, but it was idle and overgrown with weeds.
Chu Yue took a few glances and felt sorry for it.
With such a good location and such good sunshine, if we could grow some fruits and vegetables, it would be enough for the whole family to be self-sufficient.
After experiencing the steel and concrete cage of the city, I realized how precious the farm life returning to nature is.
She silently withdrew her gaze and followed the tall figure in front of her into the house.
The outside of the house looks simple, and the inside can be described as shabby. In the huge space, there is only a square table. The table has not been used for a long time and is covered with a thick layer of dust.
There was a musty smell in the air, and there were uncleaned spider webs hanging from the beams.
Chu Yue frowned. This house didn't look like anyone lived in it.
Just as I was wondering, Lu Zhanlin's voice came from the side.
"This room was just assigned to me after I submitted my marriage certificate. I used to live in the military office by myself. I've only been here once and haven't had time to clean it yet. You and Yuanbao can stay here for one night, or stay in a guesthouse. Tell me if you need anything and I'll have someone bring it to you tomorrow."
This way, it all makes sense.
But Chu Yue didn't care about these. After she glanced at the surrounding environment, her clear eyes finally fell directly on Lu Zhanlin.
Seeing this, Lu Zhanlin felt panicked.
As the commander of a corps, he had been to the battlefield and had been hit by bullets. He had experienced all kinds of gunfire and hail of bullets, but he had never been afraid.
Now, in front of a little girl, he actually showed his cowardice.
Without waiting for Chu Yue to ask, Lu Zhanlin touched the bridge of his nose and said, "I didn't pretend not to know you on the train."
"Why is that?" Chu Yue still looked at Lu Zhanlin, waiting for his answer.
Lu Zhanlin said in a deep voice, "Because I'm not sure if you are really here to join the army."
Chu Yue frowned, not understanding what Lu Zhanlin meant.
Lu Zhanlin did not continue speaking for the time being, and looked at Lu Yuanbao with deep eyes.
Chu Yue immediately understood what Lu Zhanlin meant. She took out another steamed bun from her backpack and stuffed it into Lu Yuanbao's pocket. "Go outside and eat the steamed bun. Don't eavesdrop."
Lu Yuanbao was so smart that Chu Yue had to give him a few more reminders.
Lu Zhanlin watched the interaction between the two, one big and one small. After Lu Yuanbao took the steamed bun, he glanced at Chu Yue and walked out obediently. They were more intimate than when they were on the train.
The door was closed, and only Lu Zhanlin and Chu Yue were left.
"You should have heard about Yuan Bao's mother, my sister. My sister died tragically at a young age because of an arranged marriage. I don't want this tragedy to happen again. You have more choices."
Perhaps because he mentioned his sister's miserable life, Lu Zhanlin's expression became a little colder and heavier than before.
In other words, he gave Chu Yue more choices.
Even if he didn't join the army, Lu Zhanlin would have agreed to a divorce before; now that he has met Chu Yue, Lu Zhanlin's mind has subtly changed.
My wife is right in front of me, so there is no reason to push her away.
Lu Zhanlin also said, "I'm sorry, I also concealed something about my identity."
He was not a platoon leader but a regimental commander, and he was not disfigured. A bullet just grazed his scalp, leaving a scar, but it was covered by his growing hair.
After hearing this, Chu Yue's frown relaxed and she accepted Lu Zhanlin's explanation in its entirety.
It's strange that this man spent so much money on Li A-mei and Chu Yaoyao, but he didn't even want his wives and let them go.
It’s a pity that Li A-mei and Chu Yaoyao were so guilty that they didn’t even dare to say a word of refusal, which made this marriage happen inexplicably.
As for Lu Zhanlin...
Chu Yue looked the man up and down. He was handsome, with broad shoulders and long legs. He looked very upright and looked particularly good in his military uniform.
She didn't lose out by choosing this man as her husband.
Chu Yue raised an eyebrow and made a decision in her heart.
"Lu Zhanlin, you don't have to say sorry to me, because I'm hiding something from you too."
This time, the person who was stunned became Lu Zhanlin.
He raised his eyebrows slightly.
Chu Yue continued, "The person you were engaged to at first, your first wife, is called Chu Yaoyao, and I am her half-sister. Chu Yaoyao was admitted to university this year, and she doesn't want to follow the army and wants to go to college, but she spent your money for ten years and didn't know how to ask you for it, so when you first filed the marriage report, the information she sent to you was mine, and the person following the army now is also me."
Before Lu Zhanlin finished listening, his thick eyebrows were already furrowed together, and his expression was fierce.
He didn't expect there was such a secret, and he didn't expect that Li Amei and Chu Yaoyao could do such a thing. They were "half-brothers", so what kind of sister was she! Chu Yue was just a little girl of eighteen or nineteen years old. She didn't even have the ability to resist. She was married for no reason. Could she be willing?
Lu Zhanlin's brows furrowed more and more tightly, "Then you..."
But after moving out of the Chu family and sending the letter of denunciation, Chu Yue had let go of all the hatred.
She raised her eyes, her eyes were clear and bright, even though she was dirty at the moment, her pretty face could still be seen, pretty and bright.
Chu Yue looked at Lu Zhanlin seriously, "We have obtained the marriage certificate, so we are officially husband and wife. I also like Lu Yuanbao's child. Since I came to join the army, I just want to live a good life with you."

Note: Lu Zhanlin had never seen Chu Yaoyao when she was a child, so he couldn’t remember what she looked like.
