Chapter 423 They Both Have Successors



If I had to say that I initially took on the work of the seventh division just to have something to do...

So, as my understanding of the work deepened and the responsibilities on my shoulders grew heavier,

Jiang Si began to truly understand and appreciate the perseverance and dedication of her master's generation.

She doesn't know when it started, but she also developed a heavy sense of mission.

As Master often says, "Each generation has its own commitments, and each generation has its own mission!"

Jiang Si feels honored to have been able to participate in the construction of China during her lifetime and contribute her own strength to the goal of "major national instruments".

Therefore, she enjoys this busy yet fulfilling life.

She was busy, but compared to her ancestors who had persevered in the Gobi Desert, Jiang Si spent most of her time in Beijing, where her living conditions were much better.

I only need to travel for work occasionally, usually for ten days or half a month at most. I haven't missed my children's growth, and I'm already very happy.

Before we knew it, the children had reached the age to start primary school.

After several years of systematic study of mental arithmetic, Zhao Zhao has become the youngest specially recruited student at the Military Economics Academy.

Despite her young age, she has swept first place in almost all abacus competitions in Beijing over the past few years.

Last month, she was invited to Japan with her abacus mental arithmetic team to participate in a Sino-Japanese friendship international abacus mental arithmetic competition.

Zhao Zhao signed up for two events this time: "Lightning Abacus Mental Arithmetic" and "Large Number Multiplication and Division Competition".

Before leaving the country, when Jiang Si was helping her pack her luggage, she accidentally found the practice book she usually used.

The first question stumped her.

The question is about dividing a 12-digit number by a 6-digit number, and it's not even divisible. You need to give the result plus the remainder.

After only one glance, Jiang Si quickly closed the book.

The only pity was that her and Huo Tingzhou's identities meant they couldn't go abroad, otherwise she really wanted to see her daughter's amazing performance in person.

According to Zhuo Mingda, Zhao Zhao was absolutely on fire at the competition that day!

The agreement was that friendship comes first and competition second, but with Sunset Country around, friendship coming first is out of the question.

Zhao Zhao also demonstrated with her strength what it means to have "unfavorable strength, but become stronger when facing the sun"!

With the two gold medals she won this time, Zhao Zhao has truly fulfilled the promise she made when she first participated in the abacus competition.

She put a gold medal on everyone in her family!

With such an outstanding younger sister, it would be hard for Sui Sui not to work hard.

While Zhao Zhao was away in the UK for the competition, Sui Sui also achieved a crushing nine-game winning streak in the Go ranking tournament and successfully advanced to amateur sixth dan.

This has broken the record for the youngest person in history.

In fact, he had already caught the attention of the coaches of the Chinese national Go team when he won the Beijing Amateur Go Tournament for the first time two years ago.

But no one expected that Sui Sui would refuse the offer from the national team.

The reason for his refusal was just as he had told Jiang Si before: he only wanted to practice Go to temper his temperament.

I initially joined the competition just to earn some pocket money.

Even if all else fails, there's still an enamel mug as a prize.

Now I have dozens of enamel mugs printed with all sorts of competitions at home!

But if you join the national team, you'll have to train every day, which means you'll have less time to spend with your family.

This is what he finds most unacceptable.

We'd heard of someone so mature for their age, but Sui Sui's words still surprised everyone upon first meeting her.

But it was precisely this uniqueness that strengthened their resolve to recruit this promising talent.

However, Sui Sui was exceptionally insistent on this matter, and Jiang Si and Huo Tingzhou fully respected the child's opinion.

Privately, the couple were quite curious about how long their son would have to work on his temper.

But soon, they no longer needed to be curious.

When Sui Sui finished second grade and was nine years old, she officially withdrew from the Go club at the Children's Palace.

Firstly, the teachers at the Children's Palace frankly admitted that they had nothing left to teach.

Secondly, Sui Sui felt that his temperament had been tempered enough, and now he wanted to challenge himself with something that interested him.

Over the past few years, he has dismantled all the televisions, radios, and other small appliances in the house.

Jiang Si confidently made a bet with Huo Tingzhou, believing that her son would definitely choose the mechanical engineering group.

Unexpectedly, they turned around and joined the model airplane class.

On the way home, she looked at her son, who had grown quite a bit taller, and jokingly teased Huo Tingzhou, "Looks like you have a successor."

Huo Tingzhou smiled slightly. "Not necessarily."

There weren't many people on the road at the moment, so he naturally took Jiang Si's hand. "It's also possible that we two will have someone to carry on our family line."

Jiang Si was taken aback for a moment, but quickly understood the deeper meaning behind his words. "You mean, he doesn't want to fly airplanes, but wants to build them?"

Huo Tingzhou nodded. "Jingxing would look through those textbooks you studied on your own whenever he had free time, and he would write down any questions he didn't understand and ask me about them."

He doesn't really like being called Sui Sui anymore.

As soon as I hear it, I will correct it in a serious manner.

Jiang Si wasn't being sarcastic; she was just curious. "Then why has Jing Xing never asked me?"

Huo Tingzhou glanced at her with a smile, the teasing in his eyes was all too obvious.

Jiang Si immediately fell silent.

Okay, she admits it!

As the "Julang-2" project entered a critical phase, she was indeed quite busy this year.

Leaving early and returning late is the norm, and I often work overtime at the office on weekends as well.

"It will be fine in a few more months," Jiang Si said.

It is now July 1977, and we are getting closer and closer to the moment that will truly change the fate of countless people.

She knew that a very important "Science and Education Work Symposium" would be held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on the 8th of next month.

The meeting lasted for several days.

This marks the first time since 1973 that the country has publicly and explicitly stated its intention to reinstate the college entrance examination.

This isn't a case of "crying wolf," it's a genuine recovery!

Just like in 1973, the college entrance examination officially began two months after the news was announced.

Jiang Si hesitated for a long time about whether or not to take the college entrance examination.

But in the end, she decided to participate anyway. There were three top-ranked players in her family, and it wasn't right for her to stay stuck here without leveling up.

Moreover, given her current situation, she could easily apply for early graduation.

The ban on buying private cars that lasted for seven or eight years has been lifted, so I can buy my own car then and drive around more easily.

After making her decision, Jiang Si began to study systematically in her spare time.

Time flies, and October is here in the blink of an eye.
