"See me?" Li Chu put down the bowl in his hand, thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, just tell him I don't have time."
He knew why Li Qiaoyun and her troupe leader had come to him; they just thought the two songs he had brought out were pretty good and wanted to see if they could get more.
"However, I do have two more songs here. I'll sing them for you after we finish eating. As for whether you sing them yourself or give them to someone else, that's up to you."
When Li Chu mentioned two more songs, not only Li Qiaoyun, but also Ding Qiunan and the two children's eyes lit up.
"Dad Chu, what song is it?"
"These are all songs from the army. Hurry up and eat. I'll sing them for you after we finish eating. But let's make it clear first, you're not allowed to laugh at me if I don't sing well, or there will definitely be no next time."
"Don't worry, Dad, no one will laugh at you."
Li Chu glared at Wang Yueyue, who was speaking: "No one else laughed, because you were the one laughing the loudest. When I start singing later, you go back to your room in the front yard."
"Oh, Father Chu, you can't treat me like this. I'm your daughter-in-law. Aren't you worried that I won't take care of you when you get old?"
"Hehe, you guys, as long as you can take care of yourselves, that's fine."
"Ugh...it hurts!"
Wang Yueyue wanted to say something, but her mother raised her hand and tapped her on the head. The pain made her put down her chopsticks and rub her head.
This girl is like a ray of sunshine; with her around, the house is filled with laughter every day.
"Qiu Nan, where's Huihui? Did she go see Chen Yi again?"
"Yes, they had a holiday the day before yesterday and left yesterday."
"Will Huihui be alright traveling alone by car?"
“She wasn’t alone; she came with a group of people who came from over there for further studies.”
"That's better. Girls should be more careful when going out alone."
Ding Qiunan and Li Qiaoyun chatted while eating, and Wang Yueyue, after being tapped by her mother, ate her meal obediently.
"Wenxuan, show me your medical records from the past two days later," Li Chu said suddenly, looking up from his meal.
"I know, by the way, Dad, I met a rather special patient this morning." Li Wenxuan seemed a little hesitant when he said this, but he still said it.
Upon hearing this, Li Chu, who had just taken a bite of food, raised his eyes and glanced at his son across from him.
Li Wenxuan has been practicing medicine at the main hospital's outpatient clinic for more than half a year. Including the various cases he has seen with his father, he has seen quite a lot. For him to say something special, it must be genuine.
beqege.
"What makes it special?"
“Uh…” Wenxuan turned his head to look at the two mothers who were chatting, and Wang Yueyue whose ears were perked up like little radars. This patient’s illness was indeed a bit difficult to talk about, and he hesitated.
Seeing his son's hesitant look, Li Chu immediately understood. He continued, "Never mind, let's eat first. Tell me when you're free."
Seeing that there was no gossip to be had, Wang Yueyue continued to stuff her steamed buns into her mouth with a somewhat disinterested expression.
After dinner, Li Chu gave Li Qiaoyun two more songs: "One Two Three Four Song" and "Green Flower in the Army".
"Alright, that's it for these two songs. As for whether you sing them yourself or give them to your group, that's up to you. Make it clear beforehand, I don't have any more from here."
That's all. The only songs he can sing that were already in use in the military are these four, either they've been written out for a long time or they haven't been written yet.
Li Qiaoyun looked at the paper in her hand with great affection. Even though she couldn't compose, she still had basic discernment. Even if she never had any good songs again, these four songs would be enough for her to live on forever.
Ignoring the three women huddled together discussing the two songs, Li Chu called Wenxuan to the study.
"Tell me about the special patient you encountered."
He sat down behind his desk and looked at his son sitting opposite him, asking a question.
“Hmm…” Li Wenxuan thought for a while before saying, “It’s Teacher Ran Qiuye.”
"who?"
"It's Teacher Ran Qiuye, she's pregnant."
Li Chu stared wide-eyed at Li Wenxuan, wondering if he was hallucinating. As far as he knew, Ran Qiuye was never married.
"Wenxuan, is it Teacher Ran Qiuye or Teacher Ran Ziye?"
“Dad, how could I possibly be wrong? You've forgotten, she was my and my sister's teacher.”
Did she recognize you?
"Probably not. I was wearing a white coat, a white hat, and a mask. My mom didn't recognize me even when we were face to face that day, let alone anyone else."
"She came alone?"
"She was the only one who came into the consultation room, and she didn't know she was pregnant. When she came in, she told me that she had a bad stomach and felt nauseous. I only confirmed it after I took her pulse."
After I told her, she was quite shocked and left in a hurry.
After Li Wenxuan finished speaking, he looked at his father with some hesitation.
When Ran Ziye got married two years ago, her whole family went to attend the wedding.
He inadvertently saw the way Ran Qiuye looked at his father. He had seen that look before, in his father's and mother's eyes, and in Wang Yueyue's eyes.
Therefore, he was very clear about what those eyes meant.
Li Chu didn't miss Li Wenxuan's gaze either; he knew exactly what Wenxuan was thinking in a flash.
"What kind of nonsense is going on in your head, you brat?"
He picked it up and threw it over there.
Li Wenxuan quickly caught the book his father tossed to him, and smiled somewhat awkwardly.
"Dad, do you know that Teacher Ran has romantic feelings for you?"
"I know," Li Chu nodded, readily admitting it.
“I’m not stupid. Of course I can tell what she’s looking at me with. That’s why I’ve avoided being alone with her since then. Even when I need to take Ran Ziye for a follow-up appointment, I make her come to the hospital.”
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Don't overthink it. I won't do anything to betray your mother or this family. It's possible she's already married."
Li Wenxuan curled his lip: "She informed our family about her sister's wedding, so how could she not inform us about her own?"
"Maybe they're dating someone, who knows?" Li Chu shrugged.
"Alright, let's stop discussing other people's private matters, and you shouldn't tell anyone else either."
"I know, Dad, that's why I didn't mention it while we were eating."
"Oh, right, give me your medical record book, I want to take a look."
"Oh, Dad, wait a moment, it's in my room."
Watching Li Wenxuan walk out of the study, Li Chu's thoughts returned to what he had just mentioned.
Sigh, I hope she really is married, or at least in a relationship.
