Chapter 78. It's still Sister Lu who has the final say.
"Yes, good boy, you're right."
Old Fu nodded, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
"I bribed Dr. Zhang to steal other people's grades, and after graduation, I also bought a job at the hospital with Dr. Zhang."
"This matter has been handed over to the Public Security Bureau."
"There will be a fair and just trial under the law."
Old Fu waved his hand, and the police officers who had been waiting outside walked in. The person leading the team was none other than Zhang Zhifeng.
"Li Xiuhong, Zhang Min, please cooperate."
Li Xiuhong shook her head, her face filled with panic. "No, it's impossible. My dad is the deputy regimental commander. You can't arrest me."
“My father is the deputy regimental commander, you can’t arrest me and my mother.”
"Let me go!"
Li Xiuhong shook her head and shouted loudly.
Zhang Min didn't say a word, but just looked at her daughter with loving eyes.
"I did all of these things!"
"It has nothing to do with my husband, Lao Li, or Xiu Hong."
"I found Director Zhang, and I gave him the money. Old Li and his child have no idea."
“Commander Jiang, everything I said is true. Li Xiuhong really didn’t know.”
Zhang Min looked at Chu Lulu, but she hadn't expected that no matter how she tried, she couldn't find a way around it.
She always felt she was doing the right thing; she was willing to give anything for her daughter.
She only has one daughter, Xiuhong. If her daughter wants to go to school, she will find a way to make sure her daughter goes to school.
Her daughter likes Wang Chengjun. She doesn't care about money or fame; as long as her daughter likes him, that's all that matters.
Her daughter wanted to go to a military hospital, so she found someone, pulled strings, and bribed them.
She would make her daughter's wishes come true.
only……
Seeing her daughter, heavily pregnant and alone, she suddenly realized that she might have made a mistake!
Chu Lulu sighed, walked outside, and took a stack of documents from Zhang Cuihua's hand.
She walked into the conference room and looked at Li Xiuhong.
"I have to say, your mother did something wrong, but she did nothing wrong to you."
This is a place she envies, but one she can't have.
She's grown up now, and she won't ask for things she can't have.
"I think if I've done something wrong, I should face it myself."
Looking at the child's photo on the first sheet of paper, Li Xiuhong went completely mad, screaming, "Bastard, lowly child! I don't know her, I don't know her!"
Zhang Zhifeng picked up the document and frowned more and more as he read the descriptions on it.
The girl is eight years old.
It was Li Xiuhong who had the child with a man in the village when she was sent to the countryside.
But in order to return to the city, she poisoned her own daughter, who then lost her voice and could no longer speak.
The man was extremely disappointed in her and, fearing she would harm his daughter again, let her go.
Li Xiuhong did not pass the university entrance exam; at that time, the educated youth had not yet returned to the city in a unified manner.
Zhang Min used her connections to get Li Xiuhong impersonate her and get into Kyoto University.
Chu Lulu had no hostility or malice towards Li Xiuhong. In fact, when Li Xiuhong repeatedly caused trouble, Chu Lulu let her off the hook because she was pregnant.
It wasn't because of herself, but because of the child in her womb.
But she's not human, she's a beast.
Even if such a selfish person has a child, can she really treat the child well?
"Li Xiuhong, please cooperate with our investigation."
The chaotic meeting room finally returned to silence.
Old Master Fu broke the awkward atmosphere with a soft cough, and Chu Lulu took his pulse. "How serious is it?"
"Where are the pills I gave you? Didn't you take them on time?"
"Haven't you been getting enough rest lately?"
Xiao Liu was finally able to speak and immediately began to complain.
"Sister Lu, please tell us about Old Master Fu!"
"These past few days have been busy with investigations and organizing medical records. Old Fu hasn't had a proper sleep or meal in almost half a month."
"No matter what I say, Old Master Fu won't listen."
"Sister Lu, Old Master Fu listens to you the most. Please help me persuade him."
For a moment, Old Fu's expression became somewhat unnatural.
He had received the investigation information from his eldest apprentice a month ago, but in order to ensure the accuracy of the information, he did not want to disappoint Lu Lu.
Let Kyoto University reinvestigate; no mistakes are allowed.
He also used his connections to conduct investigations.
After summarizing the information from both sides, the usually mild-mannered old man could no longer hold back.
After angrily calling the police, he came to the Northeast Military Region to seek justice for his child!
The busy month, coupled with the late spring cold snap, made my already sick body even worse.
Looking at Lulu's ambiguous smile, Old Fu felt a little uneasy. She was usually so cheerful and cute that he wished he could steal her home and make her his own granddaughter.
Can……
Why is he inexplicably angry with that half-smile now?
"Accident."
"LuLu, it was an accident."
"Once this matter is resolved, I will definitely take my medicine properly, go to bed at 9 p.m. sharp every night, and get up at 6 a.m. sharp every morning. I will definitely get a good rest and eat well."
Before Chu Lulu could speak, the old man's voice was a little softer and he didn't sound like he did before.
Like an elder coaxing their own child.
Chu Lulu sighed and helped Old Fu sit down. "It's been more than three years since the college entrance exam, so a little longer won't make a difference."
"Your health belongs not only to you, but also to the medical community and the country."
"You've dedicated your whole life to the country, how can you bear to make me the sinner?"
"I would be very sad if you ruined your health because of me."
Not a single word was insincere.
It's absolutely impossible for her to deliberately deceive people and go against her conscience.
She admires many people, but not many.
In this era, Mr. Fu is one such person.
This old man didn't care about his own gains or losses. He was like a candle, illuminating the hope of others to live, but also burning himself out.
Old Fu felt even more uneasy after hearing what she said.
"I'm going to start eating properly and resting properly today."
"I'll be perfectly fine. Take my pulse and prescribe my medication again. I won't miss a single dose."
Xiao Liu opened his mouth, then closed it, and smiled to himself.
really!
It's still Sister Lu who has the final say.
He kept nagging behind Old Fu, turning a man who was usually quiet into a chatterbox.
The problem is, it doesn't work!
"good."
"Continue taking the previous pills."
"I'll rewrite the recipe. Boil three bowls of water down to one bowl, and take it twice a day, morning and evening."
Chu Lulu's handwriting is beautiful; it's a wildly cursive script, with elegant strokes and free-flowing ink, penetrating the paper to its fullest extent.
His handwriting reflects his personality, conveying a sense of freedom and unrestrainedness.
"Beautiful calligraphy!"
Commander Jiang's eyes lit up when he saw the handwriting, and before anyone else could see it, he picked up the prescription.
Old Fu snatched the prescription back, looked at Commander Jiang with a cold snort, and asked, "Can you even understand it?"
"illiteracy!"
Commander Jiang's face turned red...
But alas, I couldn't retort!
Commander Jiang had never been to school; he survived battle after battle solely through sheer physical strength.
even……
His mentor was the very person who had just called him illiterate!
Its authority is so high that there's simply no way to refute it.
"Beautiful calligraphy."
Every time Mr. Fu got his hands on Lu Lu's calligraphy, he couldn't help but collect it.
Soft-pen calligraphy, hard-pen calligraphy.
Regular script, running script, cursive script.
In her previous life, Chu Lulu was trained by her master and practiced calligraphy for two hours every day in the space. She did this without interruption from the age of three until the day the international women's prison was bombed.
But she preferred cursive script. People like her, like grass, survived in the cracks and grew wildly.
She dislikes being restricted and longs for freedom.
What are you doing here?
When Commander Jiang saw Old Fu copying the prescription, he couldn't help but ask a question.
The way Old Fu looked at him was as if he were looking at his own foolish son…
"Such beautiful handwriting, what a waste to take it to a pharmacy!"
"That's why I said you're illiterate!"
Commander Jiang: Hehe...
You like Chu Lulu, but you don't have to belittle me like that!
You liked Chu Dashan back then, and now your daughter has followed in her father's footsteps. After Chu Dashan, his daughter has become my comparison point.
After copying the prescription, Master Fu handed his own copy to Xiao Liu, while he carefully put away the copy written by Lu Lu.
Commander Jiang was scolded, but he didn't get angry.
Anyway, everyone in the room was one of his own, and Old Fu was his teacher, someone who had shown him great kindness. Without Old Fu, he wouldn't have gotten to where he is today.
"Go on with your work."
Looking at Chu Lulu standing to the side, Old Fu quickly told her to go about her business.
Everything Lulu knows and can do is important.
"Okay, please don't chase me away, I'll be going now."
Chu Lulu sighed helplessly and couldn't help but chuckle, but still reminded him, "Eat well, sleep well, and take your medicine properly."
"I've got it, I've got it."
Old Master Fu wasn't angry at all; his face was full of smiles, not the gentle, refined kind, but a hearty laugh.
Commander Jiang: Different people, different fates. It wasn't like this when you treated me!
Chu Lulu glanced at Xiao Liu, who then made a hand gesture.
The two of them made small, oblivious gestures that were clearly visible to everyone, but they pretended not to notice and even deliberately turned their gazes away.
Chu Lulu left.
Xiao Jinli followed...
Only Commander Jiang and Old Fu remained in the room.
The hospital director knew the two had something to say and had already gone to the military region's medical clinic to check on them.
The doctors at the military region's medical clinic are doctors transferred from the Northeast Military Region General Hospital, and they rotate every two months.
After everyone left, Commander Jiang's playful expression vanished, replaced by a solemn one.
"You know about this, sir?"
Old Fu nodded. "At first, I thought the child looked kind, but after investigating recently, I learned that Lulu is Dashan's daughter."
"Adopted daughter." Commander Jiang thought of the little time bomb in the military region and wanted to dig out Chu Dashan and give him a good scolding.
One was born to him, and the other was raised by him; neither of them are easy to deal with!
Old Fu did not say anything in response to Commander Jiang's correction.
"Dashan is like that; he hasn't sent us any news all these years because he doesn't want to cause us any trouble."
“He wouldn’t have entrusted the child to you if he hadn’t had no other choice.”
Chu Dashan was Fu Lao's most outstanding student.
Unfortunately, fate is cruel to talented people. He broke his leg at a young age. The army wanted to assign him to another position, but he refused and applied for discharge directly.
I can still remember his stubborn look when he left:
"Although I have a broken leg, I can still earn a living on my own and will never be a burden on the country."
That ambitious person, I never expected him to pass away before me.
"Take good care of Lulu. If you can't protect her, you should send the child to live with me as soon as possible."
"That child's journey is very, very long."
As Mr. Fu finished speaking, thinking of his old friends, he seemed to have aged several years.
Chu Lulu and Xiao Jinli walked along the road, neither of them speaking, yet they walked in unison toward the courtyard.
Standing at 1.58 meters tall, her small feet prevented her from walking very fast, so she strolled along the road at a leisurely pace.
Despite being 1.85 meters tall and having long legs that usually allow her to walk with the speed of the wind, she deliberately slowed down her pace.
It's not about how fast you walk or how long your legs are, but whether you have the heart.
"What happened a few days ago..."
"sorry."
Xiao Jinli turned her head and looked at the person beside her. She was still wearing a mourning cap on her head and a pale yellow scarf around her neck, which made her face look even whiter.
"Let's go home first and talk about it later."
Chu Lulu didn't look up, burying her nose in her scarf, her voice a little muffled.
Xiao Jinli followed closely behind, only giving a soft "hmm".
Is Lulu angry?
I was too impulsive and too attached to her, which led to our contact.
Will she never talk to me again?
Will she leave the military region?
For someone who has a comprehensive plan for a mission, the only one who doesn't know what Chu Lulu's next step is.
The four aunts had already returned. Knowing that Sister Lu would be alright, they came back early to work.
They can earn several dollars a day now!
Their salaries are not much different from their husbands' salaries.
"Sister Lu is back?"
"Battalion Commander Xiao is here."
One returned, and one came.
There's a distinction between close and distant relationships!
Chu Lulu nodded. "Aunties, keep working. Don't overwork yourselves. Don't skimp on the hot water. Take it easy."
"good."
The four aunties were all smiles. Ever since they started following Sister Lu, they felt like they had been elevated. Led by Zhang Cuihua, the aunties even practiced writing every night!
Their progress is slow, but they have plenty of time.
As Sister Lu once said, if you want to earn more money, you still need to improve yourself.
Over here...
The two entered the house. Chu Lulu took off her coat and was about to add firewood to the stove when Xiao Jinli quickly went over and lifted the pot aside before her hand touched it, adding wood blocks to the stove.
Chu Lulu raised an eyebrow and beckoned with her finger, "Come here."
"Um."
Xiao Jinli gave a soft "hmm," letting Lu Lu hit him or scold him as she pleased.
As long as you don't ignore him, it's fine.
Battalion Commander Xiao has a slight tendency to be love-struck.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw Chu Lulu's long, black hair hanging down from her hat, with slight curls, reaching her waist. She was wearing a light gray sweater and tight jeans.
The jeans were mailed from Hong Kong by Liu Lin, along with two wool coats, carrying the Hong Kong style of this era.
Her delicate nose, pink lips, and smiling eyes were fixed on Xiao Jinli.
Xiao Jinli swallowed hard, feeling inexplicably thirsty...
Chu Lulu saw him standing at the door and beckoned with her finger, "Come here."
Xiao Jinli took a long stride, his legs longer than life itself, and walked step by step to her side. Chu Lulu leaned against the desk, hooking her arm around his collar, so that the two of them looked at each other at eye level.
He's too tall; it's uncomfortable for him to look up.
"You want to be my male concubine?"
This time...
