Chapter 429 One Decade After Another



Perhaps this tenth anniversary trip was so wonderful that Jiang Si and Huo Tingzhou had already made a promise to come back for the next tenth anniversary even before the trip was over.

No, not just the next one, but the first tenth anniversary thereafter. They will come as long as conditions permit.

Time flies, and another ten years have passed.

The last tenth anniversary celebration mainly involved their family of four, plus their third uncle and Uncle Zhong.

Thanks to Jiang Si's advance planning and arrangements, the Huo family mobilized almost the entire family for this 20th anniversary celebration; almost everyone who could attend came.

Mr. and Mrs. Huo had already retired from their frontline work, having toiled for most of their lives.

Now, they have finally been relieved of their burdens and are enjoying a happy life with their grandchildren.

Through his unremitting efforts, Huo Tingzhou was successfully promoted to the new head of the military.

While Huo Tingzhou's career was flourishing, Jiang Si never stopped moving forward.

After returning to Beijing, Jiang Si spent two years completing all the courses she had taken at Tsinghua University.

In the following years, she participated in the advancement and research and development of several classified projects.

Today, she has become the youngest deputy chief designer and head of the overall design office in the history of the seventh film.

Many of his hand-drawn drawings have been permanently collected by the National Museum of China.

Thirty of them were even listed in the "Special Grade Archives"!

As the first female deputy chief engineer in the history of the Seventh Division, Jiang Si promoted and suggested that the Seventh Division establish a series of training programs.

In just ten years, the proportion of female technical backbone in the design institute has increased from less than 10% to 22%, setting a good example for the rise of a new generation of female researchers.

It is said that a tiger father will not have a dog son. Under the influence of their parents from a young age, the growth path of Sui Sui and Zhao Zhao can be summarized in one sentence.

From kindergarten onwards, they have always been the children that other people talk about!

After studying systematically in the University of Science and Technology of China's Junior Class for four years, Sui Sui was specially admitted to Tsinghua University in 1982.

After completing my bachelor's and master's degree, I will be sent by the government to MIT in the United States to pursue a doctoral degree in the second half of this year.

As the younger sister, Zhao Zhao has always been with her brother since she was little, but this time the two made different choices.

She did not choose to study abroad on a government scholarship, but decided to continue to stay at Tsinghua University to pursue her doctoral degree.

This year was the year our family was most together in history.

By 1998, as everyone became increasingly busy with work, it became impossible to gather so many people together again.

But that year, Jiang Si spent a huge sum of money to acquire a scenic bay on Qiongzhou Island.

He personally designed more than a dozen vacation villas with different styles.

Similarly, in the same year, Zhao Zhao got married.

The son-in-law was none other than Zhuo Qingyun from the Zhuo family.

Just as Jiang Si said at their first birthday celebration.

The future son-in-law really did watch his daughter grow up from a young age.

The two have known each other since Zhao Zhao was four years old, and have been together for more than 20 years.

My daughter has always been very opinionated, intelligent and independent.

Jiang Si and Huo Tingzhou both fully agreed with her judgment.

Moreover, they had watched Qingyun grow up since he was a child, and he was one of the best among his peers in terms of character and ability.

Most importantly, her daughter likes it.

They liked each other.

So on the day Zhaozhao got married, although Jiang Si felt reluctant, her emotions remained relatively stable.

On the contrary, Huo Tingzhou, who is usually calm and composed, did not sleep a wink the night before the wedding.

He, who never sheds tears, finally couldn't hold back his tears at the wedding the next day, when he listened to his daughter and son-in-law exchange vows.

It's rare for him to lose his composure like this, so this meaningful moment should definitely be recorded and kept for future enjoyment!

The year after their marriage, Zhao Zhao gave birth to a lovely daughter, nicknamed Yue Yue.

The following year, China ushered in the new millennium.

His son, Jingxing, finally ended his long overseas study career and chose to return to China to develop his career and serve his country.

Reassuringly, he did not return to China alone this time, but brought back the entire research and development team.

More than ten PhDs and postdoctoral fellows from well-known universities participated.

Among them was her girlfriend of many years. At the end of the same year, the two got married and embarked on a new chapter in their lives.

In 2008, for the first time in all their years of marriage, Jiang Si did not go to Qiongzhou Island to celebrate their tenth anniversary.

The reason is quite simple: China hosted the Olympics that year!

Such a grand and meaningful event should of course be witnessed in Beijing.

Well, it's mainly because everyone is too busy.

They couldn't all get together in 2008, so Jiang Si didn't even think about the 50th anniversary in 2018.

What she didn't know was that Huo Tingzhou had already notified his relatives and friends a month earlier.

This year marks his and his wife's 50th wedding anniversary, a significant milestone.

The celebration was held on the day they officially registered their marriage.

On that day, all relatives and friends dressed up for the occasion.

There wasn't enough room at the beachfront villas.

Fortunately, in 2008, Jiang Si seized the opportunity of the times and invested in building a new five-star resort hotel nearby.

Jiang Si had promised Huo Tingzhou long ago that they would take a set of wedding photos at the beach on their golden wedding anniversary.

The wedding dress was the one she wore during that Spring Festival many years ago.
