Chapter 722: Going for a walk with Teacher Li

"I'll give you another acupuncture treatment. Acupuncture is an auxiliary treatment and the effect is very good."

Shen Lu suggested this.

Comrade Lao Chu certainly would not refuse when he heard this, and he even asked, "Can I take fewer doses of medicine after acupuncture?"

Shen Lu suppressed his smile: "It should be possible."

Chu Li and Teacher Li didn't have to be patient at all, because they knew Comrade Chu's little thoughts.

"It's easy to relax and fall asleep after acupuncture. Why don't you go wash up first, so you can go to sleep directly later."

Shen Lu's proposal was unanimously agreed upon by Teacher Li and Chu Li's mother and son.

Comrade Lao Chu was a little hesitant: "I still have some work to do here, why don't you wait for me to finish the task at hand first."

"It will take at most half an hour, is that ok?"

"Then you go ahead and do your work. I'm not in a hurry."

Shen Lu simply accompanied Teacher Li for a walk and did not disturb Comrade Lao Chu from working at home.

Teacher Li also wanted to invite Comrade Xiao Chu to join us.

But Chu Li refused.

"Mom, you and sister Xiaolu can go, I still have work to do here."

Teacher Li glanced at his son with a complaining look: "Kid, when have you stopped working?"

"Why are you like your father? If you keep going like this, when will you find a girlfriend?"

Chu Li laughed: "Mom, don't worry about it. Think about how you and my dad look. How can I not find a girlfriend?"

Teacher Li hit him and said, "You little bastard, don't brag about yourself in such a creative way."

"Isn't it because you, Teacher Li, gave birth to a beautiful child?" Chu Li's mother was totally unable to handle this mouth.

He is very good at talking and praising people.

Finally, Teacher Li had no choice but to take Shen Lu out.

There are too many acquaintances in this compound. When they see Teacher Li leading a girl, they can't help but ask for information.

"Teacher Li, why are you out for a walk alone today? Who is this?"

Shen Lu is beautiful and looks very well-behaved. People who see her can't help but take a few more glances at her.

"My child." Teacher Li did not introduce him in detail, fearing that it would be difficult to explain him later.

If the introduction is not clear, people might suspect that she is her son's girlfriend and has even met his parents.

If it doesn't work out in the future, won't it become a topic of conversation among the neighbors in the compound?

Since she calls the child her own, people would think that the child is Teacher Li’s relative, or maybe a niece or something?

You know what, this girl is pretty and has a nice smile.

"What's the name of this kid? Why haven't I seen him before?"

"Shen Lu, Xiao Lu, this is Aunt Liu."

Shen Lu was not shy at all and greeted Aunt Liu.

"Oh, you're so handsome, Xiaolu, how old are you this year?"

Aunt Liu's eyes sparkled when she looked at Shen Lu. As a middle-aged person, it's inevitable that she would worry about her younger generations.

She has a useless son who is in the army, which is the monks' base.

If you can find a beautiful daughter-in-law for your son, would you still be afraid that he won't come home?

"Nineteen years old." Shen Lu said shyly on purpose.

When Aunt Liu heard this, she felt a little regretful, as her son was already 27 years old and still a bachelor.

Wait, that’s not right. He’s only eight years older. Men are more caring when they are older.

Thinking back then, she was tricked into marrying her husband because of this sentence!

She had no idea whether that old thing would hurt her, but it was really old!

I'm about to retire, but I haven't found a wife for my son yet. Am I going to wait until he retires and becomes obscure?

"Oh, you're still studying at the age of 19, right? Where are you going to college?"

Although Aunt Liu wanted to snatch the child, no, snatch the daughter-in-law, she couldn't bring herself to speak up at the moment.

Teacher Li didn't know if he saw what Aunt Liu was thinking, he just smiled and said, "This girl is amazing, she is studying at the Imperial Capital University Medical School."

Aunt Liu's eyes lit up. This is amazing!

As expected of Mr. Li’s child, he is smart from the same source.

Who doesn’t want to find a smart mother for their child?

When grandchildren are born, they will be as smart as their mother!

"Let's go together. I like smart children."

"My son went to the army because he was not good at studying... No, he joined the army because he wanted to defend his country."

It’s definitely not that studying is not good.

Shen Lu didn’t hear it, so how could Teacher Li not hear it?

Aunt Liu is promoting her own son.

But Teacher Li had taken a fancy to Shen Lu first and didn't want her recommendation to be successful.

She just kept making jokes on the side.

The two of them then started praising their sons.

Shen Lu was so embarrassed that she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with her toes.

The two aunts were completely unaware of anything and during this time, they met some people who said hello to them.

There were people who were curious about Shen Lu's identity, but no one came up to her like Aunt Liu did and insisted on going with her.

Even just a half-hour walk felt like a year to Shen Lu.

When Shen Lu saw that the time was almost up, he quickly reminded Teacher Li.

Teacher Li also breathed a sigh of relief.

She was afraid that if she delayed any further, she wouldn't be able to stop Aunt Liu from introducing her son directly.

The main reason is that she still hasn't figured out what's going on between Xiaolu and her son, so it's not right for her to say anything careless.

It will be bad if it becomes self-defeating.

"Okay, let's go back first."

Teacher Li and Aunt Liu greeted them and pulled Shen Lu back, as if there was a dog chasing them from behind.

"Teacher Li, there's no need to be so anxious." Shen Lu advised hesitantly.

Teacher Li?

She smiled awkwardly and slowed down her pace: "It's okay, little deer, let's walk slowly."

Shen Lu smiled: Teacher Li is so anxious, he must want Comrade Lao Chu to sleep a little longer.

Why couldn't she just hold on?

Wouldn't this make people even more anxious?

Therefore, Shen Lu not only did not slow down, but also deliberately quickened his pace.

The two returned to the Chu family, and the aunt brought up some fruit again.

After letting Shen Lu eat some fruit, he waited for Comrade Lao Chu to come out of the study.

It was agreed to be half an hour, but it’s almost an hour.

As soon as Comrade Lao Chu came out, he received a cold look from Teacher Li.

"Oh, you finally decided to leave work?"

Seeing Teacher Li's sarcastic look, Comrade Lao Chu could only smile.

"Teacher Li, don't be angry. I saw that you really like Xiaolu, so I asked you to stay with her for a while longer."

Comrade Lao Chu is quite good at making excuses.

But Teacher Li just falls for it.

She really wanted to spend more time with the little girl.

Who made her give birth to a son? No matter how sensible he is, he is not as caring as a daughter.

Shen Lu went to give acupuncture to Comrade Lao Chu without hesitation.

Although Comrade Lao Chu was afraid of suffering, he was not afraid of pain at all. He watched the long needle piercing his body without any reaction.

Although acupuncture is not painful, there is a slight soreness and swelling sensation, and it is not very comfortable when the needle is inserted.

However, after the treatment, I felt very comfortable.

Shen Lu also used some wormwood, and Comrade Lao Chu fell asleep quickly.

I slept until dawn.

Shen Lu removed the needle half an hour later and left.

It was Chu Li who sent her away.

After sending the person back, Chu Li saw his mother's sparkling eyes and knew that she was really overthinking.
