2608 Love Each Other
Ye Jian already understood what Mr. Fu meant. She hurriedly smiled and said, “Grandpa, I’ve been here for a few days. After Dad received the letter I sent, he came to look for me the day before yesterday. You’ve been busy recently, so Dad hasn’t told you.”
A few days ago, the old man went to the aerospace institute to participate in a rather important academic conference. He didn’t come back until last night. When he came back, he was busy discussing with the students from the aerospace institute. There was no time to talk to him about finding his granddaughter.
Naturally, he was surprised to see this scene in front of him.
As he listened to his granddaughter’s explanation, he smiled and said, “Our family is very busy, and we don’t have many free days. However, we are all busy with the work at hand. We’re all people in military uniforms. The country groomed us, and the people trust us. If we’re not busy, we’ll be letting the country and the people down!”
!!
The old man had dedicated his entire life to the country and the people. His selflessness influenced countless students in the aerospace institute.
Now, even though his former students had become outstanding in the field of aviation, they still remembered how the old man had nurtured them.
The topic changed subtly. When they entered the door, Mr. Fu winked at Ye Jian. Ye Jian was stunned for a second before blinking back at him.
She seemed to have discovered a… little secret. Her father, who seemed serious and rigid, actually had a naughty side.
No wonder there was a sentence in her mother’s diary that said: [He’s annoying and constantly messes with me. When I couldn’t stand it anymore, I raised my leg and kicked him. He suffered in pain and learned his lesson. He’s finally obedient now.] At that time, she thought that her father was making things difficult for her mother. Now that she thought about it carefully, the couple was just being sweet.
Mr. Fu’s eyes were filled with smiles. It was as if there was a small secret between father and daughter. The distance between them got closer again.
The old man didn’t see the small actions of the father and daughter. He continued, “You’re both young and in the prime of your lives. If you want to do something, then do it. Don’t just talk about doing things. Otherwise, you won’t know anything.
“Your two generations have been living a good life. You have to cherish this blessing. Don’t destroy it. If you do, you might offend others.”
Mr. Fu, who often listened to the old man’s teachings, smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Your granddaughter and I will remember your advice. Also, remember that your granddaughter started training in the military unit when she was just a freshman.”
“Yes, do remember my advice. Don’t forget it no matter what.” The old man had suffered so much, but he was still a pure-hearted person. No matter how difficult his life was, he was still thinking about how to use his strength to carry out his responsibilities and contribute to his country.
After returning to the house, Ye Jian went to the kitchen and poured two cups of warm water. She gave one to the old man and the other to Mr. Fu. Then, she prepared to go back to the kitchen to scoop some porridge for the old man. Mr. Fu’s heart ached as he said, “Don’t busy yourself like this. Hurry up and go back to your room to wash up and change into a more comfortable set of home clothes. Your room is on the east side of the building. The one at the end that’s close to the sun. You can sleep well there.”
The old man lived in a two-story bungalow. The old man used his entire life’s savings to buy it. The country wanted to give it to him as a gift, but he didn’t accept it. He even said that he didn’t deserve it.
Even after buying it, it didn’t belong to him. After a hundred years, he would donate it back to the country so that the contributors to the country could live there.
The layout of the house was very good. Besides the two guest rooms that didn’t have separate bathrooms, the rest of the rooms were filled with toilets.
