On March 11, as a member of the president's attaché, Li Junhao entered the Capitol for the first time and listened to President Roosevelt's speech in the House of Representatives and the Senate respectively, benefiting a lot.

On the same day, Congress passed the Lend-Lease Act proposed by Roosevelt - the President of the United States has the right to lease weapons and equipment to countries related to the security of the United States! The Lend-Lease Act was signed into effect by Roosevelt on the same day.

The birth of the Lend-Lease Act was an important milestone in the active intervention of the United States in the anti-fascist war, although it was still in a non-belligerent state, and it was in essence equivalent to the formal involvement of the United States in the world anti-fascist war! ——

In the days that followed, Li Junhao's life and work were very regular, going to work, holding meetings, reading intelligence, and writing reports...... Chatting and partying with colleagues, I quickly got acquainted with each other in the White House, the State Department, and the Department of the Navy, and met many new friends and was known by more people.

According to the rules of the workplace, when you must work in one place for a long time, you must make more friends and fewer allies of enemies, so that you can profit more from confrontation and isolate your enemies. At this point, Li Junhao has done a good job.

March 27 was Li Junhao's 27th birthday, and Ayres held a small birthday party for him at noon in the White House staff cafeteria.

Because it was a Thursday, a weekday, the birthday party only used the lunch time, and it was carried out for a short time, but in the evening of the same day, Ayres called him to his home and held a small celebration, and the number of people attending was small, except for Nick and Avne, who were next to Mrs. Brown and Li Junhao, only Admiral Leahy and Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox, and the Chief of the Admiralty's Expeditionary Operations Division, Rear Admiral Vaughn.

A Republican and staunch anti-fascist fighter, Knox was a distant uncle of current President Franklin D. Roosevelt and a loyal supporter of the 26th president, Theodore Roosevelt, a artillery colonel at the end of World War I, a publishing business, and a vice president in 1936.

After the outbreak of the European war, Knox advocated firm support for Britain and the United States should take the initiative to intervene in the war. After being appointed Secretary of the Navy by President Roosevelt in July last year, he actively rebuilt his naval forces, laying a firm foundation for the United States to enter the war in the future.

Anyway, Knox came to Ayers' house tonight to attend this small birthday banquet, which still surprised Li Junhao, and when he stepped forward to say hello, he felt the care of this 66-year-old veteran.

At half past eight o'clock in the evening, Mrs. Brown brought in two new guests, one of whom was none other than Rist Rockefeller, and the other was a brown-haired and blue-eyed middle-aged white woman.

Li Junhao was a little overwhelmed, although he didn't have any memories of this world before, but he obviously felt that this woman had a connection with this body......

"Ogy, this is your aunt Martha A. Lee Stuart Hoover. Rist said.

Aunt? Before Li Junhao could react, he was hugged by this Martha, and he shouted: "Little Aoge, you are worried about everyone!" Are you okay during this time? ”

Li Junhao didn't know how to answer, so he could only look at the few people around him for help.

His expression made several people around him laugh, everyone knew that he had lost some memories before the age of 25, so they were not surprised that he didn't know his aunt, and even Martha herself knew about it, but the excitement after meeting made her forget about it.

After the excitement, Martha let go of her hand, looked at him seriously, and said with a tearful smile in her eyes: "Little Og, you are so beautiful in a navy uniform!" ”

Li Junhao's lips moved, but he couldn't shout the word "Aunt......

Martha saw his embarrassment and said with a smile: "Little Oge, just call me Martha, that's what you used to call me anyway." ”

"Oh, Martha!" Li Junhao said this, but he didn't know what to say next.

"Anyway, the most important thing is that you can be safe!" Martha said, "In the blink of an eye, you are 27 years old, don't leave again when you come back this time, come home with me!" ”

Go home? Is it the Stuart family? Li Junhao had some doubts.

"Alright, Martha, we'll talk about that later, let Og slow down for a while." At this point, Rist spoke, "He needs to know more before he can make a decision." ”

After everyone sat down again, Admiral Leahy, who was leaning at Li Junhao, winked at him, as if to say: Shouldn't you thank me for telling you some information in advance?

All right! Li Junhao admits that he should indeed be thanked, but there are still more questions. Now he saw an aunt named Martha, could that be any other relative? He felt that he was very passive in this matter, and he had no idea what was going to happen next.

Next, everyone did not mention his life experience, but talked about the current world situation, Li Junhao, as an important report writer and analyst, of course, is very familiar with these situations, but at this time he is a little unrefreshed, and he keeps thinking about Stuart in his head......

He has now determined that he should be from the Stuart family, and the name Panson is from the maternal side, but it is unknown why he went to Stuart and used the maternal surname "Panson...... Oh, and Aunt Martha's husband's surname "Hoover" also reminded him a lot.

I don't know if I was persuaded by Lister and Ayers, Martha didn't mention taking Li Junhao home again, but mentioned many interesting stories about him for many hours, which made everyone laugh......

After the meal, everyone sat on the sofa to talk, Martha took Li Junhao's hand and asked him about his experience in the past two years, the expectant look made him unable to refuse at all, he could only tell the situation one by one, and with his narration, several people who were originally chatting next to him were also attracted over......

Li Junhao's narration at this time was not the kind of boring report, but his life and work in the Shanghai Concession, and there were many details in it, which were of special interest to everyone.

When they heard about what the Japanese army was doing in China, the image of the Sino-Japanese war in everyone's minds changed significantly; And the "anti-gang" action in the concession has made everyone applaud......

This night, Li Junhao talked a lot, and Ayles, Leahy, Knox and others also listened a lot and gained a lot.
