The old man pulled Han Wanying to sit down and said with a smile, "Come on, eat and try my cooking."
Han Wanying was no longer polite and picked up her chopsticks to start eating. After taking a bite, she nodded and said, "It's delicious. Uncle, your cooking skills are amazing."
The old man also said happily after hearing Han Wanying's words: "If it tastes good, eat more. Come on, have some of this fried meat. It's my specialty."
Han Wanying had a full meal in the library at noon and also learned the old man's name - Zhou Xinping. Han Wanying felt that this name was familiar, and she always felt as if she had heard it somewhere.
Han Wanying stayed in the library until evening. When she came to her senses and looked at her watch, it showed 7 o'clock, which was long past closing time.
Han Wanying quickly packed up her things, put them back first, then walked to the front and saw that Grandpa Zhou had fallen asleep on the recliner in front. Han Wanying was still thinking about whether to wake the old man up.
The old man seemed to feel Han Wanying's gaze and opened his eyes on his own initiative. Han Wanying saw that the old man was awake.
The voice stepped forward with an apologetic tone and said, "Grandpa Zhou, I'm sorry. I didn't pay attention to the time and disturbed you so late."
Zhou Xinping smiled and said, "It's okay. It's still early for me. Have you finished reading?"
Han Wanying shook her head and said, "No, I might come again tomorrow."
"Okay, then I'll open the museum early tomorrow and wait for you to come." Zhou Xinping said to Han Wanying.
Han Wanying nodded and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Zhou. I'll go back first."
Grandpa Zhou instructed: "Okay, go slowly on the way back and be careful."
After saying hello to Grandpa Zhou, Han Wanying went out and rode her bike away.
For the next three days, Han Wanying stayed in the library. She had previously thought that she knew enough about this subject, but when she went to the library to study, she discovered that there were still so many things she didn't know.
Han Wanying has basically read all the books on this subject in the library in the past three days, and she has new ideas about her research.
On the third day, when Han Wanying was leaving, she walked up to Zhou Xinping and said, "Grandpa Zhou, I've seen enough. I might not come tomorrow."
Zhou Xinping paused for a moment while drinking his tea, then he slowly said, "Okay, then you must remember to come visit me more often when you have nothing to do."
Han Wanying smiled and nodded, saying, "I know. I'll come to see you when I'm done with my work. Don't worry."
When Zhou Xinping heard this, he stood up, walked behind the library counter, took out a book and gave it to Han Wanying, wrapping it tightly.
"Take this and open it when you get home." Zhou Xinping said to Han Wanying.
Han Wanying reached out to take the thing and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Zhou. I won't be polite with you." Han Wanying thought it should be a book about machines. After all, Zhou Xinping knew that she had been reading books on this subject.
Han Wanying didn't think too much about it and just reached out to take it.
Later, when Han Wanying returned home, she opened the wrapped book and found that it was not a single book, but two large notebooks with the words "Weapons Research Records" written on them.
Han Wanying looked at these big words and couldn't help but tremble in her heart. Then she opened it and saw that the first notebook was about her recent research on rockets.
Han Wanying sat down and looked at the two notebooks carefully. The more she read, the more fascinated she became. When she finished reading the first notebook, it was already early in the morning.
This is the book that Han Wanying spent the longest time reading, from 7pm to the early morning. Han Wanying was very interested in some of the concepts in it.
She turned to the last page, where a few words were written with a pen.
"If you have obtained this notebook, it means you have passed the test. I am handing it over to you. Whether you want to hand it in or study it yourself, I hope you will treat it well and truly put it to good use. I have always believed that our country is full of talented people. The things we haven't researched yet can only be handed over to you. The future of our country depends on you."
This is the last message this senior left for this notebook, and there is one more sentence at the end.
"The Yellow Emperor gave birth to the Chinese people. If they succeed, they will repay our country."
——Yuan Changming.
Han Wanying looked at these sentences. Although they were just a few simple words, she could feel these people's love for the country. Looking at this, Han Wanying probably knew what this senior had experienced.
Han Wanying put the book down and said to herself, "I will do it. I will do my best to complete it. I hope that when you see this world again, it will be a prosperous era with peaceful rivers and seas."
Han Wanying is not planning to sleep tonight. It just so happens that she has a new idea today. Han Wanying wants to combine it with the ideas of Senior Yuan to improve her research plan.
This notebook not only records the successful research of this predecessor, but more importantly, the failed plans. Han Wanying avoided many mistakes by looking at this notebook.
The next morning, Han Wanying, who had not slept all night, got up and went to the cafeteria to have breakfast.
When Han Wanying went to the cafeteria, the enthusiastic auntie said to her, "Director Han, you haven't come to the cafeteria to eat for a long time. You look thinner."
At this time, Kang Hong also came to get food. When he heard the auntie saying this, he walked to Han Wanying's side and looked at her.
Then she smiled and said to the auntie serving food in the cafeteria: "Sister, don't say such things carelessly. You look fatter than before, okay? I can see it."
The aunt who served food in the cafeteria heard Kang Hong's words and retorted in a bad mood: "What do you know? How are you fat? Director Han, don't listen to his nonsense. You need to eat more." Then she put two more eggs in Han Wanying's bun.
"These are the eggs I brought from home. They are laid by my own hens. They are very nutritious. You can eat them. Eat more to replenish your body." The cafeteria aunt looked at Han Wanying with loving eyes.
Han Wanying was too embarrassed to refuse, so she took out a dollar from her pocket and put it in front of the aunt who was serving the food, then ran away with her breakfast.
