Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 39

An Old Cow Eating Tender Grass
After Lu Jueyu registered, she saw a young man bid farewell to Li Chenmo with a familiarity. She looked at the young man’s back and asked, “Is that your friend?”

Li Chenmo chuckled and said, “No.”

She looked at him questioningly. Could a stranger be so enthusiastic?

“What numbers did we get?” he asked.

Hearing his question, she showed the paper in her hand and said, “We should go to the orthopedics department now.”

Because he was injured on his leg, Lu Jueyu went to borrow a wheelchair for Li Chenmo. With the wheelchair it’s much easier for her and he doesn’t have to put as much pressure on his legs. When they arrived at the consultation room, they found that there were not many people waiting. After waiting for a while, the nurse called them.

The moment she pushed Li Chenmo into the consultation room, the doctor looked at them in surprise. He stood up and gave the military salute. After Li Chenmo returned the salute, the doctor asked, “Brother Li, when did you come back?”

“It’s been a while.” Li Chenmo said with a smile.

The doctor looked at his leg with a flash of understanding in his eyes. He read Li Chenmo’s medical records and sighed. After a while, he said, “It’s a pity that you retired due to injury.”

Both Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu could hear a trace of pity in the doctor’s voice.

“It’s alright.”

The doctor heard the words, glanced at them, and asked, “This is…”

“Jueyu, this is my comrade in arms, Doctor Yu. This is my wife, Lu Jueyu.” Li Chenmo introduced them.

Hearing that he called her his wife again, Lu Jueyu didn’t correct him this time because there were outsiders. So, she nodded to the doctor, smiled and said, “Nice to meet you, Doctor Yu. We will bother you to help with my husband’s check up today.”

Doctor Yu was stunned after hearing what they said. When did the famous iron tree in their unit find a wife? Why does no one know he is married? If he already has a wife, what about the commander’s daughter?

Seeing the stunned person in front of him, Li Chenmo coughed lightly. When he came back to his senses, Dr. Yu quickly said, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I will take good care of Brother Li.”

“Thank you.”

After a brief conversation, Dr. Yu checked Li Chenmo’s injuries, and then asked the nurse to take him for some tests. While waiting for Li Chenmo, Doctor Yu observed her from head to toe. Lu Jueyu noticed his gaze and smiled at him.

After a while, Doctor Yu asked, “Well, sister-in-law, can I ask you something?”

“Of course, please ask.”

“How did you know Brother Li?” He asked curiously.

“We have known each other since we were young. I think it’s been 17 years now,” she said with a laugh after thinking for a while.

“Ah, so long?”

“En, the first day we met was when I was a month old.” She recalled what her mother had said to the original owner before, and added. She also saw it in a dream.

Doctor Yu was taken aback, opened his eyes wide and asked, “Sister-in-law, how old are you this year?”

“I turned 17 two months ago.”

Hearing her words, Doctor Yu gasped, and blurted out, “I didn’t expect Brother Li to find a wife, let alone a young wife. He is an old cow eating tender grass.”

Hearing his words, she smiled. In fact, in this era, the government has promulgated regulations that women can only marry when they are 18 years old. However, this regulation is difficult to implement. After all, many places are far away from the capital, and the common people still have an old-fashioned way of thinking. Some even got married as young as 15 years old and married to an old man.

She can be said to be blessed, because she married a handsome young man. Although there is a seven-year age gap between her and Li Chenmo, it is still acceptable. After all, her soul is the same age as his. Therefore, she did not regard him as an old man at all.

When Lu Jueyu was laughing, Li Chenmo had already returned and asked, “Who do you say is the old cow?”

Doctor Yu was taken aback by his sudden words, and hurriedly said, “It’s my neighbor.”

Doctor Yu looked at the report and Li Chenmo suspiciously. He looked surprised when he read the reports. He compared the two sets of reports for a long time before looking at Li Chenmo from head to toe.

Sensing his gaze, Lu Jueyu asked, “Doctor Yu, is there something wrong with my husband’s condition?”

Although Li Chenmo felt that he was fine and almost recovered, when he saw Doctor Yu looking at him seriously, he couldn’t help feeling nervous.

“Is there something wrong with my injuries? You can tell us the truth.” Despite his anxiety, he said calmly.

After a while, Doctor Yu finally said, “According to the report, there is nothing wrong with your health.”

“Then why are you looking at me like that?” Li Chenmo asked, perplexed.

“Brother Li, can you tell me what medicine you use for your injuries and what medicine you took during your recuperation?” Doctor Yu asked suddenly.

Li Chenmo was taken aback by his question, and said truthfully, “I used the medicine given by the military doctor before I came back, and I didn’t take oral medicine.”

Hearing this, Doctor Yu touched his chin and said in a low voice, “It’s strange. The effect of these medicines should not be so good. In only two months yet the bones and internal injuries have almost healed. It should take another one or two months to reach this stage.”

Lu Jueyu’s heart tightened when she heard him muttering. The reason why Li Chenmo recovered so quickly was because of the water in her space. So of course his results won’t be the same as everyone else’s.
