Fu Minhang left the desert base where he had stayed for more than 20 years.
Looking at every brick and tile here, you can see that they have watched it being built bit by bit over the years.
He is old and there are still many young people needed here. He is content with his work for the country.
I wonder how the stubborn donkey's granddaughter is doing now; I'm still fantasizing about her.
Aside from spending time alone with the children, Fu Lingyao spends her days learning management knowledge.
I still have to attend the elective courses at school whenever I have free time; my schedule is packed every day.
A new doctor has arrived, so Fu Minhang can go back with peace of mind.
Several researchers also left this time. They are getting old and will be working behind the scenes when they return.
This place is now handed over to the young people, following the major crackdown five years ago.
It's much safer in the desert now; those bandits have disappeared.
But the soldiers on patrol still patrol here year-round, just like before.
Ensuring the normal safety of all military personnel, watching the base recede into the distance.
Chief Engineer Qiu has completed his mission, after years of tireless research.
Now that the country has young people in its rear, they can rest assured.
They are all quite old, and their experience is not what it used to be.
It should be up to those who are capable to fulfill their dreams.
After leaving here, they will return to Beijing to continue their mission.
Fu Lingyao has been feeling anxious lately, and she doesn't know why she feels so excited.
Today, after having some free time, he was still complaining to Song Yining in his heart.
I've been feeling a bit agitated these past few days, and now that your uncle just left today, that feeling is back again.
Song Yining was also very curious, and before she was sure, she took her pulse.
That's not right!
Looking at her status again, there was nothing there either!
Seeing Song Yining frowning, Fu Lingyao held her breath and waited for her reply without saying a word.
Only after Song Yining put her hand down did she look at her with curiosity.
''How about it? ''
"Not really, everything's fine."
"You scared me half to death! I knew it! They both got their tubal ligations done; I thought it wouldn't work."
"It's alright. The weather's been hot lately, and the late summer heat is a bit dry. Make some pear soup and try to stay calm."
"Thank goodness you're alright. I saw you frowning earlier, and I thought you were pregnant again."
"What, so you're having another child?"
"No, thank goodness we made that decision back then, otherwise Tuantuan wouldn't have a younger sibling."
"It's all fate; look how they've all grown up."
"Yes, thank you, Ningning!"
"Should I thank your arm or your leg?"
"Oh my! You actually came!"
The two hadn't spoken like this in a long time; since the birth of their second child, they had each been busy with their own lives.
Fu Lingyao has been taking advantage of her free time to rest recently because she has noticed that Song Yining is often at home.
"The child is still young; we should spend more time with him/her."
"Yes, I'm a little anxious, and I just want the child's grandfather to be able to relax as soon as possible."
"He's fine, he has a few more years. His health is pretty good, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Yes, I was a bit anxious during that period."
"Let nature take its course. You're the children's support; don't ruin your health."
"I'm doing great! The children are still young, and their father isn't around. I'm doing my best, and I've already made final plans."
Song Yining looked at her, puzzled.
"What plans? You've even thought about your funeral arrangements."
"What?! I was thinking that if things don't work out, I can just give up and not have any of that stuff, then I won't have any worries."
Song Yining nodded, also thinking about those issues. "Yes, I was like that a while ago too, looking at the children's eyes when I came back."
It felt so unfamiliar, but I hardened my heart; the children are still so young.
These past few years have been the best time for us to spend together; if we miss it, we miss it forever.
Without hesitation, I chose to stay with the children.
"Yes, every time I see the children's innocent smiles..."
It heals my weary soul every time I hear them call for their mother.
I feel that all my efforts are for the children, but I'm missing out on their growth.
I can totally relate to how they envy your family's children.
"Don't rush, take your time."
The two mothers watched their children play and only then had a moment to calm down and share their recent feelings.
This makes me feel better, and everything looks beautiful.
"We've been too impatient these past few years; it's time to rest and spend time with our families."
Slow down and take it easy, everything will be alright, don't be too anxious.
The two of them also started to talk to each other and confide in one another.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, the Fu family called.
She was also puzzled as to why Fu Lingyao was asked to take the children back with her.
Just then, Shen Junjie returned from his vacation, and the two of them took their three children home together.
Fu Minhang returned home travel-worn, and only when he saw the familiar alley did he feel at ease.
He's back. I wonder how the children have been all these years?
Yao Yao is still so pouty; I wonder if she's married yet.
Judging by her age, that girl is almost thirty, yet she's still so stubborn!
I got out of the car and knocked on my own door, feeling incredibly excited.
Time flies so fast; my granddaughter was still so small when I passed away.
He left without telling the children that day, and disappeared without a trace all these years.
Hearing footsteps coming from inside, the old man was also looking forward to going home.
When Mrs. Fu opened the door and saw Grandpa Fu, she couldn't believe it at first and rubbed her eyes to make sure.
Looking at the old man standing outside the door with a surprised expression, she said, "Dad, it's you back! I'm not seeing things, am I?" She asked uncertainly after saying that.
"Yes, Yushu! Dad's back!"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Fu's mother, Luo Yushu, excitedly called out.
"Old Fu, Old Fu, look who's back!"
The two of them carried their luggage and headed home. Fu's mother was incredibly excited.
"This morning when I woke up, there were magpies chirping in the house. I wondered what good thing was going on in the house."
Look who's back, Dad! Your great-grandson is playing inside, let's go in and see him.
The old man looked excitedly at Fu Lingyao's room, also wanting to see his granddaughter.
Luo Yushu knew exactly what the old man was thinking, and he also knew who the old man wanted to see.
I was thinking to myself that I should ask Lao Fu to call my daughter later.
If my daughter knew her grandfather was coming back, she would be so happy she could jump for days.
