It takes time to cook porridge. It also takes time to clean the ingredients and soak the red beans and other ingredients until they are soft.

Li Jinfeng and Sister E were in the kitchen, picking out various beans, washing them, and then soaking them in water until softened.

Lu Jianguo didn't rest since he came back. After spending time with his three energetic children, he looked more tired than when he came back.

Li Jinfeng waited until the children fell asleep, then immediately urged him to take a bath and go to bed right away.

But Lu Jianguo refused, saying he had something to say.

Not only that, he also took Li Jinfeng to Mr. Lu's room.

The old man hadn't slept all day, or rather, based on years of tacit understanding, he had long guessed that Lu Jianguo would come to see him.

Mr. Lu is getting old. He even had severe amnesia for a period of time, but he is still smart.

Otherwise, he wouldn't still be the backbone of the Lu family today.

It is already amazing for a person to live as himself.

It is even more difficult to make future generations respect you actively and admire you from the bottom of their hearts.

"Grandpa, I came back in such a hurry this time because I received some news..." Lu Jianguo said.

Lu Jianguo's classmates have blossomed in almost every field, and some have even reached extraordinary positions.

Someone wrote to him in late September.

The content of the letter was even written in a code developed by a few of their classmates who were particularly close to each other.

After Lu Jianguo translated the secret code, some of the information he obtained almost shocked him.

But at that time, he was still busy with research, the most critical part, and he had no way of being distracted.

Now, the research project has run into some problems and has reached a bottleneck. Lu Jianguo simply applied for a leave of absence, saying that he wanted to try a change of environment.

Actually, I came here to take care of household chores.

He did not hide these things from Li Jinfeng. She was his wife, the mother of his children, and the person he would protect for the rest of his life.

Apart from work matters, which he couldn't talk about, he could tell her anything else.

Li Jinfeng showed a surprised expression on her face. In fact, she already knew what Lu Jianguo knew.

Even...what is about to happen will be more serious than Lu Jianguo expected.

"Grandpa, I want to take you, Jinfeng, and the children to Ganlan. This research is a big project. In the past, it was calculated in years, but this time, it may be five, ten, or even twenty years." Lu Jianguo said.

Things like scientific research are inherently difficult to talk about.

It is common to encounter a bottleneck period and not make any progress in your entire life, let alone ten or twenty years.

The sudden mention of leaving caught Mr. Lu off guard.

But the eldest grandson's decision must not be alarmist.

"Back then, our Lu family moved from Shanghai to Jiangbei, practically the entire family relocated. What happened afterwards proved that Grandpa's decision was right."

The Lu family had experienced the most prosperous times in Shanghai and had almost reached the top.

But in the end, Mr. Lu saw through some things and decided to retire.

Not only did he take the Lu family away with his own strength, he also helped the Lu family to earn a future.

Although there are no people in the Lu family who are involved in politics now, they have friends who are.

Some of them were even funded by Mr. Lu in his early years.

The Lu family has a rich heritage and history.

"This time, we should probably do the same." Lu Jianguo said.

Mr. Lu sighed.
