When Shen Qiaoyue saw Lu He's back, she felt that Lu He seemed to have matured a lot.
Before Lu He went to the canteen to collect his family's rice, he went to the commune to buy meat and radishes.
When Lu He went to the canteen's logistics department to get the rice, he found that he couldn't lift it.
The logistics guy stared at Lu He and said kindly, "Young lady, why don't you ask your family to come and help, or I can call someone..." The guy was helping to find someone to help when...
"Young man, come here quickly, give me a hand!" The uncle waved to Chu Lin, who was passing by.
Chu Lin glanced at it, pointed to himself, and walked over, puzzled.
"Young man, help this girl carry the rice back." The uncle was not polite at all; in the military region, everyone should help each other.
Lu He looked at Chu Lin, feeling a little embarrassed.
Chu Lin did not refuse. He handed the vegetables he bought from the commune to Lu He, then bent down and carried the rice towards the family compound.
"Thank you, Uncle." Lu He thanked him politely and then jogged to catch up with Chu Lin. "Thank you, Chu Lin!"
"You're welcome, it's on my way." Chu Lin's expression remained indifferent, his eyes fixed on the road ahead.
Lu He saw Chu Lin at the last meeting; he seemed to be only eighteen years old.
Looking at Chu Lin's hand, there was a patch of bruises.
"Chu Lin, what happened to your hand?" Lu He could tell at a glance that it was an injury from being beaten.
Chu Lin didn't respond, but quickened his pace and said, "You don't need to worry about it, I fell down by myself."
"Were you hit by someone? This injury couldn't have been from a fall. A fall would result in a scrape or a purple patch. This is bright red, which means you were hit with a heavy object."
Lu He also started to get anxious.
"I fell down by myself," Chu Lin insisted.
Lu He definitely didn't want to believe it.
But there's nothing I can do if he doesn't say it.
Lu He carried the rice to the door and opened it for Chu Lin.
"Lu He is back? And who is this?" Shen Qiaoyue heard the voice, looked towards the door, put down the scissors in her hand, and came out.
Lu He quickly explained, "Sister-in-law, this is my classmate Chu Lin, who is the cousin of the woman from the house upstairs."
"Hello, sister-in-law, my name is Chu Lin, I'm from Ye Hualan's family, she's my cousin." After hearing Lu He's explanation, Chu Lin knew that she didn't know who his cousin was, so he could only introduce himself.
Upon hearing that it was Ye Hualan's cousin, Shen Qiaoyue smiled and nodded, saying, "Hualan's husband, please come in and sit down."
"Where should we put the rice?" Chu Lin asked.
"Put it in the kitchen," Shen Qiaoyue said, pointing to the kitchen.
"Then, sister-in-law, I'll go back and cook now."
Chu Lin carried the basket of vegetables inside and put it down. He took the basket of vegetables he had bought from Lu He, glanced at Shen Qiaoyue, nodded slightly, and left.
Before Shen Qiaoyue could speak, she saw his departing figure.
Lu He looked at Chu Lin and thought of the hand on his hand. It seemed that he had been bullied because of his status.
Chu Lin is an extraordinary person. After Shen Qiaoyue died in her previous life, her soul followed Lu Chen. This kid later became his company commander and was about to become a battalion commander. Later, he retired and went to university.
The female lead mentioned that Chu Lin later became a high-ranking official in Fucheng, in charge of the nation's finance and economy, and that his teacher was the Minister of Finance.
Later, when the teacher retired, the position of minister fell to him.
I have a bad social standing now and am often bullied.
Therefore, Chu Lin's seemingly cold demeanor is a way to protect his fragile inner self.
His parents passed away, and he still had to take care of his grandparents. At such a young age, he had to rely on his brother-in-law's recommendation to enlist in the army.
"Sister-in-law, it looks like he was beaten. His arms are covered in bruises." Lu He explained anxiously.
Shen Qiaoyue asked, "How do you know it was because you were beaten?"
"I know he was beaten. I saw it just now. His hand was hit with a heavy object." Lu He stamped her feet anxiously.
Shen Qiaoyue patted Lu He's head and said, "Lu He, if Chu Lin gets beaten up, his sister and brother-in-law will definitely protect him. Don't worry too much. You need to focus on your studies now."
Lu He thought her sister-in-law made sense.
"If he gets beaten up, there's some medicine at home to help with bruising. Since you're his classmate, it's only right that you help him! Just don't say anything you shouldn't, or others will use it against you, you know?"
Lu He is a gentle girl; she studies medicine and has a kind heart.
However, Shen Qiaoyue was worried that if Lu He got too close to Chu Lin, it would be used against her.
"Okay, sister-in-law, I understand." Lu He put down the meat and vegetables she was carrying in the kitchen, came out and said with a smile, "Then, sister-in-law, I'll take the spare ointment from home to him."
"Go ahead, but don't stay too long if no one's home," Shen Qiaoyue reminded him.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll be back soon." Lu He went into the living room, opened the medicine box, found the ointment for external injuries, and took it to the Ye family's courtyard for Chu Lin.
When Shen Qiaoyue saw Lu He's small, quick steps as she ran, a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.
Lu He is such a gentle girl, why couldn't she have a good ending in her past life?
Thinking of Yang Qingshan, he has been sentenced to prison and should be executed in a month and a half!
All of that is in the past. Looking down at the baby in her womb, she murmured, "My child, my biggest regret in my past life was not being able to give birth to you. I will definitely give birth to you in this life and raise you well. Your father, mother, and aunt will all love you very much."
After finishing her sentence, Shen Qiaoyue couldn't help but turn around and busy herself with the few pieces of fabric.
