Sun Hu's hands have been shaking less lately, but he still can't lift heavy objects or maintain one position for long periods of time.
Today was another day for his injection, and he arrived at the family compound early.
After Bai Yajing finished administering the acupuncture, she gave him a few more instructions: "Be careful to keep warm and avoid getting chilled. Do you still have any medicinal wine? Have your sister-in-law continue to massage you; her technique is excellent, and she's taken good care of you. Otherwise, you wouldn't have recovered so quickly."
Sun Hu chuckled foolishly, "Hehehe, my wife is 100% devoted to me. There's still some of that medicinal wine left. I'll ask Doctor Bai to give me some more to take back later. Hehehe."
Bai Yajing felt genuinely happy thinking about the relationship between the couple. As for the medicinal wine, she had plenty of it. Sun Hu never came empty-handed; he was always a polite person.
She gave him the medicinal wine willingly.
"Okay, wait for me." After saying that, she went back to her room to get the medicinal wine.
Sun Hu was bored, so he got up to stretch his limbs and saw the photo wall in the hall. He hadn't seen it when he came before, so he guessed it was put up after the wedding.
It contains the remains of Grandpa Bai, Uncle Bai, Grandpa and Grandma Kang, and Bai Yajing herself.
There were also two other people, namely Kang's mother and Kang's uncle, whose photos I saw at the wedding.
When Bai Yajing arrived, she saw him staring intently at a photo of his uncle.
She walked over and waved her hand in front of his eyes. "Brother Sun? What's wrong?"
Sun Hu shook his head and came to his senses. However, this time he could see clearly and remembered where he had seen this person before.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just saw your uncle's photo last time and it looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen him before. Now that I can see it clearly, I remember seeing a group photo of him and his group at the home of an old leader."
Bai Yajing was somewhat surprised upon hearing this. "Your former leader is from the Northwest Military Region, right? My uncle is from the Kyoto Military Region. He shouldn't have any dealings with people from the Northwest Military Region, right?"
Unless we met while on a mission or something, it's not certain...
"Yes, my old leader was my instructor when I first joined the army. He taught me how to shoot. I heard that he used to be in the Kyoto Military Region, but he was later transferred to our area."
When I left the Northwest Military Region, he was already the Chief of the General Staff. However, I heard that he has been transferred back this time. He's probably getting old and wants to retire back in his hometown.
From the moment he mentioned the Chief of the General Staff, Bai Yajing's eyes widened, her heart filled with surprise and uncertainty.
"Dong Guangming, the Chief of the General Staff of the Northwest Military Region??? He has a photo of my uncle??? How is that possible!"
She had never heard her grandparents mention it! She knew all of her uncle's comrades and uncles! The only thing she didn't know was that her uncle knew Dong Guangming!!
So, was he involved in his uncle's death back then? Dong Guangming, you better not be involved, otherwise, I will definitely grind you to dust!
Seeing that her face looked unwell, Sun Hu didn't understand what was wrong with her. He just nodded sheepishly. "Yes, it's Old Dong. I, hehe, his marksmanship was unparalleled back in the day!"
As his instructor and me as a new recruit, I wanted to learn more, so I tried to curry favor with him. I went to his dorm to help him tidy up and that's when I accidentally saw a group photo of them.
Your uncle was the most handsome among that group of people. I remembered him at first glance, though the image has become a little blurry over time. But as for your uncle's face, I will definitely remember it if I see it again.
"Oh, I just remembered! Um, are you alright?"
Bai Yajing was feeling uneasy and eager to know the relationship between her uncle and Dong Guangming.
She forced a smile. "Oh, I'm fine. I was just a little surprised. I know all of my uncle's comrades-in-arms and we've always kept in touch, but I don't know Dong Guangming, so it's a bit strange."
