Evening.

Lu Family.

"Old Lu, I saw Hui’an Pharmacy’s advertisement. Now, so many people in Anjiang County are talking about this, I never imagined that the Dr. Lu they were discussing turned out to be my son."

When Lin Fangling mentioned what she saw and heard while buying groceries, she still couldn’t help but feel shocked.

Upon learning that the doctor everyone talked about was none other than her son, the one Hui’an Pharmacy invited to sit in for consultations, Lu Xuan, who gained immense fame in Anjiang County in just a few days after returning, and who acquired exceptional medical skills within months after graduating, Lin Fangling’s sense of pride was indescribable.

She once felt proud of her son’s achievements, which is what she hoped for, because in her heart, her son has always been a talented, responsible, and compassionate person.

Lin Fangling grew up as an ordinary rural woman and hadn’t received much education. Back then, if there was little money in the family, girls rarely had the chance to study.

Additionally, in the era Lin Fangling lived, most families had at least two or three children, some four or five, so even families with some extra money seldom sent girls to school.

However, Lin Fangling did attend primary school, although she dropped out after junior high, staying home to help her parents with farm work. Despite only going to primary school, she always firmly believed her son could leave this small village and fulfill his dreams.

From the time Lu Xuan was very young, Lin Fangling often shared stories from her childhood, encouraging him to study hard because knowledge is the key to changing one’s fate. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

And a few years ago, her son didn’t disappoint her expectations. Not only did he get into a prestigious university, but he also earned a master’s degree in medicine.

After her son went to university, every time she chatted with acquaintances, Lin Fangling frequently heard praise for her son, Lu Xuan.

Though Lin Fangling didn’t say much, she felt immensely happy inside.

Every time others mentioned her son, as a mother, Lin Fangling felt incredibly proud. She knew her guidance and expectations had transformed into her son’s actions and achievements. She was proud of her son’s accomplishments and relieved for his efforts.

At this moment, Lin Fangling wanted to tell her son: you are my pride, your achievements make me immensely proud. I hope you continue to strive to help more people and become an even better doctor. Wherever and whenever, I will support you and feel proud of you.

Today’s experiences further accentuated Lin Fangling’s pride vividly.

The child has grown up, no longer the little kid hiding behind his parents, now he has the ability to stand on his own.

In fact, his excellence has surpassed that of most people.

At the age of twenty-something, he shines brilliantly in Anjiang County.

What was she doing when she was in her twenties?

She had just married Old Lu and was working on the farm.

What were others doing?

Just stepping out of campus, entering society, preparing to be hit by the harsh realities of life.

Lin Fangling always knew her son was outstanding, but never imagined he would become so exceptional.

Even now, she feels as though she’s in a dream, thinking it’s all somewhat unreal.

"Stop talking, some of our old acquaintances don’t know how many times they’ve called me today, asking one by one whether the Dr. Lu mentioned in Hui’an Pharmacy’s advertisement is our son."

Lu Guoquan said helplessly: "I tried to be low-key, saying it’s not him, but they refuse to believe it, claiming people with the same name are too few, and there aren’t many with the surname Lu in Anjiang. When I admitted it is our son, they still don’t believe it, saying how can our son be so remarkable right after graduation.

I’ve been explaining for ages, and finally, they believed the Dr. Lu in Hui’an Pharmacy’s advertisement is our son. The key is not the explanation but having to clarify to every single person who called to inquire. I’m left dry-mouthed, and in the end, I couldn’t even answer the phone, so I just posted on my social media."

Talking about this, Lu Guoquan looked utterly frustrated.

Although his son gained fame, as a father, naturally he feels happy inside. But anyone who’s been hounded by countless relatives and friends all day would likely feel quite frustrated without a drink of water all day.

"What’s happened to my grandson? Why do you sound so helpless? Did something happen?" Lu Qinian the old man pushed the door open, curious when he heard Lu Guoquan and his wife talking about their eldest grandson.

Lu Guoquan had to explain the situation with Hui’an Pharmacy’s advertisement.

The old man suddenly realized: "No wonder I heard quite a few talking in the park today, thought it was someone with the same name, never expected it really is our eldest grandson.

Good, good! Our eldest grandson did a great job, bringing fame to our Old Lu family."

Upon hearing everyone talking about their eldest grandson, Lu Qinian became incredibly excited and couldn’t help but raise his thumb.

"Dad, your health isn’t good, don’t get so excited." Watching the very excited old man, Lu Guoquan was startled.

Lu Qinian smiled: "It’s alright, these past few days, I’ve been taking the medicine prescribed by our eldest grandson, my health has improved a lot, now I eat well and sleep soundly, don’t know how good my health is.

Besides, didn’t our eldest grandson say it? This is no big deal."
