“······”
As soon as Shen Anan finished speaking, the scene suddenly became quiet.
Li Baoguo and He Chengguang felt awkward when they saw Lu Yuanshan's silence.
I didn't expect to know such a secret of someone else's. How could this happen...
"I've always been in good health, and I have a physical check-up every year. How come it wasn't detected?" Lu Yuanshan asked calmly.
He hadn't expected this to be the question at all.
They have physical examinations every year. Is it really possible that those doctors are no better than a little girl?
But then I thought about how I had caught a cold before, and that I had only one daughter in all these years.
He still believed Shen Anan's words a little bit.
"There's nothing wrong with your body's normal physiological reactions. It's just that weak sperm is difficult for Chinese medicine to detect. I'm sure Commander Lu hasn't done a Western medicine examination either. It's like your rheumatic leg. It doesn't hurt normally, but can you say there's nothing wrong with your leg?"
“······”
The three of them looked at each other in bewilderment at this bold girl who dared to say anything. Is this little girl married yet she dares to speak so bluntly?
"Are you married, girl? You dare to say anything at such a young age." Li Baoguo muttered in a low voice.
Shen Anan looked at the expressions of several people and realized that her words were too straightforward, which made these old men feel embarrassed.
She smiled helplessly, then explained seriously:
"Dear gentlemen, doctors are not limited by gender or age. What I said is all medical common sense. It has nothing to do with whether you are married or not. Of course, I am married. My husband has the same last name as this Chief Lu, Lu Yanzhou, and he is also in the army."
He just got married and went out on a mission.
"Lu Yanzhou? Which unit is he in?"
Hearing the name, Lu Yuanshan was stunned for a moment and no longer cared about the girl's outspokenness.
If he had a son, he would be of the Yan generation.
"He was in the army in the south. He was sent out on a secret mission just two days after we got married. I sent him all our wedding photos."
At this point, she smiled embarrassedly and said, "Don't mention it. When I saw you, Chief Lu, when I came here just now, I felt that you looked familiar. Then I realized that it was my family member who looked a bit like you. You both have the surname Lu. Maybe you were from the same family five hundred years ago."
She said this to test this Chief Lu. Who knows, maybe he also had lost relatives back then? Then she would have found a big bargain.
After all, didn’t her biological grandmother also lose two children?
"Oh? Do you have any pictures of him that I can see?"
Shen Anan’s words made Lu Yuanshan somewhat moved.
This kid's name is in the same order as the next generation of his Lu family. It's hard to say which distant relative of the Lu family he is.
"Photos? Don't tell me, I actually have some. I always carry our wedding photos with me!"
Shen Anan smiled and took out a medical notebook from the cloth bag on her body, took out a photo of her and Lu Yanzhou from it and handed it over.
"He looks about 70% like my father-in-law."
Lu Yuanshan took the photo and looked at the familiar face on it, his hands trembling a little.
"This kid's name is Lu Yanzhou? What's your father-in-law's name? Is he okay?"
This kid looks so much like his brother, really so much like him, could he be his brother's child?
"My father-in-law is Lu Yuanjiang. He fled to our brigade before liberation. He is only in his early fifties and is in good health!" Shen Anan replied with a smile.
Looking at Chief Lu's expression, she knew that her bet was right. This chief was most likely related to her man by blood.
"Lu Yuanjiang! Your father-in-law is called Lu Yuanjiang?" Lu Yuanshan stood up and asked excitedly.
Is it really his brother? Is his brother still alive?
"Old He, do you have to be so excited? There's no need to be so excited even if you find your relatives!" He Chengguang was so excited by the old man's actions that he almost fell backwards.
This old guy has always been very calm, but today his true colors are revealed.
"Lu Yuanjiang? Lu Yuanshan? Your names are so similar, are you brothers or cousins?" Li Baoguo also asked.
Lu Yuanshan took a deep breath and said, "Lu Yuanjiang is my biological brother. My hometown was destroyed by the Japanese not long after I joined the army. I thought my family members were gone, but I didn't expect..."
As he spoke, his eyes became slightly red.
He discovered these things later when he went back to visit his relatives. The entire village was gone. He asked around but couldn't get any information.
But he didn't expect that his younger brother actually escaped the disaster and successfully got married and had children.
That’s great, that’s great!
Shen Anan asked in surprise: "You and my father-in-law are brothers? That's impossible, right? My father-in-law was only in his teens when he fled to our village. He only settled down in the village after marrying my mother-in-law. I've never heard him say that he has any relatives here?"
Not only did her father-in-law never mention it, but even the original book didn't mention the existence of such a prominent relative.
If not for this, Lu Yanzhou in the book would not have had such a miserable ending.
"I'm afraid this kid also thinks I'm gone. After all, all the people in the village were gone back then." He felt a little sad when he thought of his younger brother escaping alone.
"Girl, I have to thank you for giving me this news. And Lao Li, thank you for bringing this girl to the compound. Otherwise, I would never know that my brother is still alive. I, Lu Yuanshan, owe you a favor."
Lu Yuanshan made another promise to Li Baoguo.
"What? I don't need it, right? You have to thank this girl. If it weren't for her great medical skills, I really wouldn't have brought her back." Li Baoguo said with a smile.
He only brought Shen Anan with him because he wanted to live longer. In the final analysis, this girl is still capable.
Among the three of them, only Lu Yuanshan is still in office, and this old Lu's favor is very valuable.
Lu Yuanshan waved his hand: "My nephew's wife is my own, I can take care of her myself. This favor is my thank you gift, so feel free to accept it!"
He did a favor as a deal.
After all, although he holds a high position, he has no juniors in the army. Although Lu Yanzhou is in the army, his situation is still unknown, which is a gap.
Although Li Baoguo has retired, his son is still in the army.
The two of them became closer through their personal relationship, and Lu Yanzhou would have more strength to help him in the future.
"Since you said so, I won't be polite. I really made a profit this time." Li Baoguo smiled knowingly.
I never expected that by showing off the little girl, I would actually earn a favor from Old Man Lu. This girl is really a lucky star.
Lu Yuanshan looked at Shen Anan and said gently: "Child, go back to the Li family to pack your luggage and come back to the Lu family with me. Let's go home and have a good talk!"
I can't play chess today, and I don't want to see any doctors for my illness.
He wanted to understand his brother's situation better and make up for the regret he had felt for many years.
