I became the male protagonist's wife who died young, and I became a hero by eating melons

"Comrade Ji, can I ask what your father-in-law's name is?"

"Um... When I got married, my father-in-law had already passed away. My family rarely mentioned him. I just remember that his name seemed to be Lu Yu, but he did come here to seek refuge from somewhere else."

Ji Xiaoxi was also quite embarrassed. She really had never paid attention to her deceased father-in-law and didn't even remember his name.

"Dead?" Lu Chenhua's expression froze, as if the sky had fallen. After a while, he explained to Ji Xiaoxi, "I have a younger brother named Lu Shuyu. Something happened in my family back then, and I was afraid that it would affect us.

My father sent someone to secretly send us to a relative's house in the countryside, but our whereabouts were exposed by someone. In order to protect my older brother and me, my third brother led the people away himself.

Then he got separated from us.

We have been looking for him for so many years, but we have never found him.

When my mother heard about this, she cried all day long, worrying about my brother's safety. She passed away a few years later. My father has been regretting all these years, regretting that he did not protect his son.

Over the years, his injured leg would feel a stinging pain from time to time, but he always endured it, saying it was a punishment for himself.

In fact, he was also a victim back then. Our family was framed. Although we were later vindicated, my brother can never be found again.”

Lu Chenhua's eyes were moist, and he was immersed in regret and memories. "If I hadn't asked him to help me get water, he wouldn't have discovered those people who were following us, and he wouldn't have led them away by himself."

"Dad, don't be sad." Lu Shanming comforted Lu Chenhua, "Lu Jingchuan is very likely the son of Uncle San. When we meet him, we will know everything.

If... Third Uncle is really gone, we will take his place and take good care of his wife and children."

"Yes, Dad, you don't have to blame yourself. What happened in the past is in the past. If you really find your third uncle's son, grandpa will definitely be very happy." Lu Jiyun said.

"You are right. We need to see the person to confirm." Lu Chenhua calmed down and said, "Comrade Ji, I'm sorry, can you and your husband make an appointment to come to the Lu family?"

"Okay, I'll go to the research institute to find him after get off work today." Ji Xiaoxi said.

"Can my brother and I go with you? My brother has a car and we can pick you up." Lu Shanming said quickly.

"Sure." Ji Xiaoxi glanced at the clock on the wall. "Let's set off at about 5 o'clock. Can we meet at the door then?"

"Sure, sure." Lu Shanming said.

"Can we schedule the old man's medical treatment for tomorrow? I will prepare the tools today. Based on the situation Uncle Lu just described, I have to put together a suitable plan." Ji Xiaoxi said.

"Okay, thank you." Lu Chenhua said.

By 5pm.

Lu Shanming and Lu Jiyun were waiting for Ji Xiaoxi at the door on time.

"Hello." Ji Xiaoxi got in the car, greeted them, and told them the specific location of the weapons research institute.

"Hello, can I call you Xiaoxi like Su Wan?" Lu Shanming said, "You can call me Shanshan."

"Okay." Ji Xiaoxi liked her very much. She was pretty and not spoiled like a young lady. No wonder she was friends with Su Wan. Both of them were young ladies, but they didn't have the airs of young ladies and were easy to get along with.

"I think you are very likely to be the daughter-in-law of our Lu family." Lu Shanming said, "The drive takes half an hour. Why don't you tell me more about your family? I want to hear about Xiao An'an."

Hearing others say that they love their children is something that every mother would feel happy about.

Lu Jiyun, who was driving in front, raised the corner of his mouth. His sister was really good at chatting. Seeing Ji Xiaoxi carrying the family photo with her, he knew that she loved her family very much.

Talking about children with this kind of person will definitely quickly bring the two of you closer together.

Sure enough, as soon as the car arrived at the institute, the two girls in the back were already holding hands intimately and chatting like sisters.

"You can't enter the research institute casually. I'll go in and call people first. You guys wait outside." Ji Xiaoxi said.

"Okay, go ahead, we'll wait for you here." Lu Jiyun said.

Ji Xiaoxi went into the research institute alone to find Lu Jingchuan. This time she had experience, so she went straight to the reception room to wait for him.

Lu Jingchuan had just discussed with a researcher about going to the cafeteria for dinner when he heard that Ji Xiaoxi was coming. He decisively abandoned the researcher and ran to the reception room to meet her.

"Wife, why are you here today? Are you here to bring me some delicious food again?" Lu Jingchuan asked.

"No, I'm going to take you back to eat something delicious." Ji Xiaoxi said with a smile.

"What a good thing! Let's go quickly. I'm a little hungry." Lu Jingchuan said with a smile.

"Wait a moment, Brother Chuan, I have something to explain to you first." Ji Xiaoxi took his hand and pulled him to sit on the sofa.

"Do you remember the last time Mr. Yang mistook you for someone else?"

"Yeah, remember, he called me Chenhua."

"Today, the man named Chenhua came to see me. His name is Lu Chenhua. He originally came to ask me to treat the old man of the Lu family. As we chatted, we talked about your father.

He said he had a younger brother who got lost many years ago, and you look very much like someone from the Lu family.

I saw you today, you really look like that Uncle Lu, especially your eyebrows and eyes." Ji Xiaoxi covered his nose and mouth and looked at him, "Yes, that's the feeling, your eyebrows and eyes are especially similar."

"He suspects that your father might be the youngest son who got lost in their family that year, so he specially invited us to visit the Lu family today.

I have already agreed. What about you? Do you want to go?

If you don't want to go, I'll help you refuse and I'll go and treat the old man myself."

"Go ahead. If it's something related to my father, I also want to know clearly." Lu Jingchuan said.

"Okay, let's go. There are people waiting for us downstairs. They are Uncle Lu's son and daughter." Ji Xiaoxi smiled at him. "The one called Lu Jiyun looks a lot like you. You'll know when you meet him later."

"Yeah." Lu Jingchuan was not as excited as Ji Xiaoxi. He was very calm throughout the whole process.

When he got outside the building, Lu Jiyun saw Lu Jingchuan first and his eyes were stunned.

The brothers in their family all look alike, but Lu Jingchuan is the one who looks the most like him. If outsiders saw them, they would probably say that they are real brothers.

"Brother, you two really look alike!" Lu Shanming leaned over the window and said, "Dad and Third Uncle are twins, and you look a lot like Dad. You two look like real brothers, there's no need to verify it.

I feel like he is from our Lu family."
