Shen Qiaoyue saw the expression of admiration and respect for her second uncle on her second aunt's face.

"Auntie, my second uncle said that you are also very outstanding. When my second uncle was young, he was very impulsive. How did you fall in love with him?" Shen Qiaoyue always learned about her second uncle from other people. She rarely learned about him from her relatives.

When Li Xiaoxiao saw Shen Qiaoyue asking her curiously, she smiled and thought of Shen Yuanyi when he was young.

With a meaningful tone, he complained, "He can be unreliable at times, but that doesn't stop his personal charm from attracting me."

Li Xiaoxiao talked to Shen Qiaoyue about many things from Shen Yuanyi's youth. Shen Yuanyi and Li Xiaoxiao met at a revolutionary base, and their relationship was one of initial conflict. Li Xiaoxiao had learned some of this from her father-in-law, but she learned more about it from Li Xiaoxiao.

It was a classic case of "no fight, no friendship." Shen Yuanyi was no match for Li Xiaoxiao, but through repeated beatings, he was eventually won over by her.

Shen Qiaoyue chatted with Li Xiaoxiao for a while, then boiled water, called the children back to take a bath, and coaxed them to sleep.

Day after day, a new month arrived. Shen Yuanyi returned and stayed for a few days before taking the children and Li Xiaoxiao to Beijing.

On the train, children gathered at the windows.

Looking at the beautiful scenery outside.

"When I grow up, I want to be a train driver," Da Nian said excitedly. "That way, I can see the beautiful oil fields every day."

"I want one too, brother, I want one too!" Xiangxiang raised her hand and said.

With a smile, she nestled in her grandfather's arms, enjoying the scenery outside.

"Great! We'll ride the train together then," Da Nian said happily.

Li Xiaoxiao held Xiao Nian in her arms, looking at the two children's lofty aspirations, then at Shen Yuanyi, and smiled as she looked at the children.

"Hello, train driver, but Da Nian, would you like to see a higher and more beautiful view?" Shen Yuanyi asked Da Nian.

Da Nian thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any scenery higher and more beautiful than this?"

"Yes, do you know about airplanes?" Shen Yuanyi asked again.

"I know, I've seen it. Planes are so fast, they fly by in no time!" Da Nian's eyes widened with excitement when he heard about the plane.

Imagine yourself in your grandfather's arms, looking up at him as he talks to your older brother.

"On the plane, you can see higher mountains, more vast and beautiful rivers and mountains, colorful scenery, and lush green flower fields. That's what beautiful scenery is all about." After Shen Yuanyi finished speaking, Da Nian started to imagine it in his mind, and his mouth formed a "wow" shape.

"Uncle, I want to ride in an airplane! I want to see the beautiful scenery!" Da Nian said excitedly.

Shen Yuanyi stroked Da Nian's face, looked at him affectionately, and said, "Okay, your uncle will remember this for you. When you grow up, you should become a pilot."

"Pilot?" This was the first time Da Nian had ever heard this word.

Li Xiaoxiao patiently explained to Da Nian: "Those who fly airplanes are called pilots."

"Pilot~" Da Nian seemed to have discovered a new continent. This name was so novel. He laughed and said, "I want to be a pilot."

"In the new year, pilots not only see beautiful scenery, but also protect the country and save people from danger. They must be extremely outstanding and undergo very rigorous training to become pilots."

"I'm not afraid. I want to become a pilot. I want to serve the people like my father and be a great hero," Danian said with even greater determination.

Shen Yuanyi nodded with satisfaction.

Xiao Nian listened quietly to his brother's lofty aspirations.

"What do you like to sit in, Xiangxiang?" Shen Yuanyi asked his granddaughter in his arms.

He touched his ear and pondered for a while.

"Just like my brother."

"She's still so young, she'll definitely believe whatever her brother says. Don't mislead her." Li Xiaoxiao didn't want her only granddaughter to become a pilot, it's too dangerous. She just wanted her granddaughter to be by her side, to accompany her. The child said she wanted to do some more stable work, so she could stay with her granddaughter and take care of her daily needs.

Shen Yuanyi said, "Dreams must be planted in childhood."

"I want to build houses, lots and lots of houses." Xiangxiang looked up at her grandfather and said seriously, "Grandpa, if I build lots and lots of houses, Grandpa and Grandma can live together, Mom and Dad can live together, and Uncle and Aunt can live together too, and we won't be separated."

After listening to what Xiangxiang said, Li Xiaoxiao looked at Xiangxiang with heartache.

Shen Yuanyi looked at his granddaughter with such heartache.

Hugging Xiangxiang tightly, I comforted her, saying, "Xiangxiang, we won't be separated. We'll definitely be together. When Xiangxiang grows up, Grandpa will accompany her. Whatever Xiangxiang does, Grandpa and Grandma will be there for her."

Liu Xinlan is busy from morning till night every day. Every time she comes home from get off work, her daughter is already asleep, and she doesn't see her at all during the day.

Xu Qianli was extremely busy and stayed at the military base, not coming back.

Thinking about it, the people I see most often are Li Xiaoxiao and Shen Qiaoyue, who are with their older brother and sister every day.

Xiao Nian was stunned after hearing what his younger sister said.

"A house, a flying house, so I can find Mom and Dad no matter where they are." Xiao Nian pointed out the window and said, "Mom said that at night you can see the flying house, it will light up like a star. If I can become a flying house, I won't be separated from Mom and Dad."

Shen Yuanyi and Li Xiaoxiao looked at each other.

Shen Yuanyi understood what Xiao Nian was saying.

"These children have such great dreams!" Li Xiaoxiao exclaimed.

Shen Yuanyi still smiled and said, "Only with dreams can they be realized."

Looking at the children, Shen Yuanyi knew that the future would be glorious.
