Chapter 206, Appointment

"No need, I have three days off. I will go back after the vacation." The Northwest incident is over, but the name is still on the list of the Minsheng Research Institute.

"Oh, Old Wang is willing to let you rest at home. Has his Zhou Baopi changed his temper?" Old Li laughed and disparaged Old Wang.

"He didn't tell me to go today. He told me to go back after my vacation." Mr. Wang told him yesterday to have a good rest at home. If three days of vacation were not enough, he would give him a few more days of vacation.

Anyway, there is not much to do in the institute now, and Institute 11 has also established itself.

He is not an ignorant person. Even if he needs to rest, he will do so after reporting.

It's no good to keep putting it off.

Anyway, he didn't plan to set up a project, and Ji Tong had his own people, so he had nothing to do.

As they talked, they soon turned to national affairs.

Mao Jianwen is not as impulsive as before.

"Since they can develop it, I believe our country can do it too." Very official.

Seeing his transformation, Mr. Li smiled and then didn't mention it again.

You can't force someone to do something he doesn't like.

The momentum we had before really made people feel relieved.

But the days that followed were not easy for everyone.

In the afternoon, when the children came back, Mao Jianwen played with them for a while.

Especially when Yuanyuan asked him if yesterday's braised pork was delicious, Mao Jianwen was completely stunned.

Because he didn't get to eat it yesterday, the meat was divided up by his father, Mr. Li and Mr. Wang.

Hearing this, Yuanyuan was very angry.

"Hmph, those stinky grandpas, how could they be so mean." Yuanyuan felt a little aggrieved, because she made that specially for her father.

Seeing that Yuanyuan was about to cry, Lele immediately told his uncle what happened.

Mao Jianwen felt warmed when he heard this.

"It's okay, let them eat well, Yuanyuan will make it for Daddy next time." He knew why his daughter was sad, "Dad will always be at home from now on."

She worried that she would have to go back to work and be away for years.

"Dad, will you really be at home all the time in the future?" Upon hearing this, Yuanyuan, who was a little sad, immediately opened her mouth in surprise.

"Yes."

Looking at Miss Cheng Zai's daughter, Mao Jianwen felt full of guilt.

It's not just Yuanyuan, it's the same for Pingping and the others.

He owed them.

In the future, he didn't want the role of father to disappear from their lives.

Being surrounded by children is truly a great blessing in life.

Mao Jianwen rested at home for three days. During these three days, many people came to see him after receiving the letter.

Especially the people from Institute 11, each of them was more excited than if they had gotten married.

I don't know what they are so excited about.

As soon as the vacation was over, Mao Jianwen was picked up by a car early in the morning.

An Qianqian is still in a dream.

His parents didn't ask much and just assumed he went to work.

He received a call yesterday and knew he had to go there today, so he was actually a little nervous.

I’m just afraid that they still want me to continue doing research.

But that's really not what he meant.

The elder had no official business to attend to early in the morning, so it was a good time to receive Mao Jianwen.

"Elder." He was still very excited when he came to the elder's office again.

An old man with a kind face saw someone coming in, put down the documents in his hand, and looked at him with a smile: "Come on, come and sit down."

He himself stood up from his office chair.

The two of them came to the coffee table and sat down.

"Did you have a good rest?" The elder poured a cup of tea for Mao Jianwen and handed it to him personally.

Mao Jianwen stood up and took it respectfully.

"Sit down, don't be nervous." Seeing him like this, the elder quickly asked him to sit down.

"We are just two men talking, there is no need to be so serious." The elder is really a very kind man.

"Yes." It was impossible not to be nervous, but he did try to control his emotions a little.

"The main reason I asked you to come here this time is for two things." Seeing him like this, the elder didn't talk to him any more and immediately got down to business.

"One is about the Minsheng Research Institute. Mr. Wang is getting old, and it's time for him to retire."

"Secondly, I want to tell you about the talents who went abroad that year, and the country's selection of talents in the future."

The elder spoke frankly about his next plans.

Things like this should not have been discussed with Mao Jianwen, but he was very optimistic about this young man. He was capable and patriotic, and this kind of talent was what the country valued most.

"I know a little about Mr. Wang's desire to retire. Everything will be arranged by the leadership." What else could he think?

Seeing that he refused to mention the political matter, the elder smiled helplessly.

"Don't be nervous. There's no one here. Let's talk about what's really in our hearts."

Mao Jianwen knew that the elder wanted to hear his opinion.

"Then I will tell you, but if what I say is not good, please don't take it to heart, elder."

He is not the type to get involved in politics, so his words are not roundabout.

"Those who don't want to come back should just give up, and for those who are willing to come back, we should increase our efforts to protect them. If they don't give up, then we shouldn't give up either."

He still has a good impression of those who are willing to return to their country.

Of course, many people have left, but not many have returned in recent years.

"Yes, it's time to let go." The elder was very pleased that he could say such words.

He thought he would be like those people and always want to maintain friendly relations with that side.

"For those who want to come back, don't worry, we will make sure they return safely to the embrace of the motherland." He made this assurance.

It’s just that now there are two factions, one of which wants to continue to maintain friendship with those who don’t want to return.

Another person shared the same opinion as Mao Jianwen, believing that those people no longer had their hearts set on coming back, and no matter how friendly we were, they would not come back.

"We all believe in our elders."

"Haha, you are such a sweet talker." The elder laughed.

"However, we can't always rely on those people. We have to cultivate new talents." The elder put down his teacup and began to talk about the new talent plan.

"Everything is arranged by the state." Mao Jianwen really didn't know what to do about this matter.

The main thing is that he is not good at this.

"Do you have any projects on hand now?" the elder suddenly changed the subject.

Mao Jianwen shook his head, guessing in his mind, "No, but."

Before he finished speaking, the elder looked at him with a smile and said, "Then how about I find you a job?"

Mao Jianwen wanted to refuse, but the elder stopped him before he could say anything.

"If you don't want to, how about taking over Mr. Wang's Minsheng Research Institute?"

Mao Jianwen shut his mouth.

He knew better than anyone how much trouble the Minsheng Research Institute had. Forget about taking over Mr. Wang's job. He wanted to spend more time with his family.

"Everything is arranged by the leadership."

"Haha, I have high hopes for you, Comrade Mao Jianwen. I'll have to work hard on you from now on."

After getting a document from the elder, Mao Jianwen left.
