Qian Duoduo stood not far away, quietly watching Professor Chen chatting warmly with several children. The children sat around Professor Chen, their eyes focused and full of curiosity, occasionally asking questions, which Professor Chen patiently answered one by one. Sunlight shone on them, creating a warm and beautiful scene.
Seeing this, Qian Duoduo felt a surge of satisfaction. She knew that having a skill was crucial for children's future. Mastering a language early in life would undoubtedly give them more confidence and competitiveness. Thinking of this, a satisfied smile appeared on Qian Duoduo's face.
After saying goodbye to Professor Chen, Qian Duoduo led the children to the computer lab to begin learning programming. The children showed great enthusiasm for this new field, actively participating in class interactions and listening attentively to the teacher's explanations.
When they got home, the four children didn't slack off at all. Instead, they sat down at their desks and started doing their homework. Just then, Lu Yuan walked over and asked with a smile, "How was it taking the kids out today?" Qian Duoduo excitedly replied, "It was such a pleasant surprise!"
Lu Yuan nodded in agreement: "Really? I didn't expect that. We haven't been around them for so long, yet they've managed to develop such good study habits. It's truly remarkable!"
Qian Duoduo said with a smile, "That's right, it's all thanks to our parents' careful guidance." As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and walked into the kitchen with a smile.
The sound of firecrackers continued outside. Qian Duoduo and Jin Jinxiu walked into the kitchen in high spirits, ready to cook a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner. After a busy period of preparation, one delicious dish after another was served.
The Lu family sat around the dining table, enjoying their meal and praising it endlessly. Grandma Lu said with a smile, "Mother-in-law, your cooking skills are truly divine! They far surpass our professional chef and nanny! They could never make such mouthwatering food."
Upon hearing the praise, Jin Jinxiu's face lit up with a bright smile: "Hehehe, actually, all these dishes were made with ingredients that Duoduo bought himself. And my husband and I spent a long time studying recipes for this New Year's Eve dinner!" Everyone smiled knowingly.
Looking at the table full of delicious-looking dishes, Wenya couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, life is really good now. Take grocery shopping for example. Before, in winter, all we had were cabbage, potatoes, and radishes. There weren't many other options. Now, we have all kinds of fresh vegetables available." Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Lu Yiheng had been extremely busy lately, and only returned home just before the New Year's Eve dinner, arriving just in time for the meal. He chimed in with great interest, "Judging from the current situation, our country will definitely get better and better in the future. Who knows, maybe one day, specialty vegetables from the south will be easily transported to the north, and electricity from the east will quickly spread to the west!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo smiled broadly and chimed in, "Haha, that's right! As long as we work together and strive for development, nothing is impossible. Our country's economic development is progressing at a rocket-like pace, changing with each passing day. Although we won't reach that level all at once, as long as we persevere, the future will definitely be even more prosperous!" Hearing her confident words, everyone felt a surge of longing for a better life.
As elders, Lu Lang and his wife have witnessed the tremendous changes that have taken place in the country. Many dreams that were once unattainable have now become reality: towering steel railways now crisscross the land, trains speeding by like lightning; and not only are trains incredibly fast, but buying plane tickets and traveling by air has become commonplace. Now, more and more people are planning trips to experience the beauty of their homeland and the diverse cultures of the world.
The New Year passed in the blink of an eye, and March 1st arrived. In the early morning, the sun shone on the earth, and Qian Duoduo and Lu Yuan personally escorted their four children to the school gate. Watching the children skip and hop into the school with their heavy schoolbags on their backs, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions. She sighed softly and said, "Looking at them, I suddenly remembered myself carrying a schoolbag to school when I was a child."
Lu Yuan looked up at Qian Duoduo gently, reached out and held her hand tightly, and teased with a slight smile, "Back then, were you surrounded by a lot of naughty and mischievous boys?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo was taken aback at first, then looked down at Lu Yuan, a happy smile blooming on her face. She replied coquettishly, "Hmph! I've known you since I was 14 years old, back when you were still a majestic People's Liberation Army uncle!"
Lu Yuan burst into laughter at Qian Duoduo's words, then cleared his throat in a serious tone and said, "Alright, alright, wife, let's not talk about those old stories anymore, let's go home quickly."
Qian Duoduo smiled and nodded, then took Lu Yuan's hand, and the two walked slowly side by side toward the car parked nearby. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, reminiscing about the past and looking forward to a bright future.
For a period of time, the couple took their children to and from school together every day, and the boys were always happy to go to school. The cheerful and talkative Lu Yu was always chattering away, while the quiet second son, Lu Hao, smiled broadly at his parents.
Of course, Qian Duoduo did not stop her work because of her family. She just focused her work on Beijing, especially on Tongtianyuan, which is located on the Fourth Ring Road, and the brand-new CBD construction project located on the Third Ring Road!
These two places were like two heavy stones weighing on her heart, constantly on her mind. The emerging CBD, in particular, represented the future direction of the city, its importance self-evident. Therefore, Qian Duoduo poured most of her energy into these two key locations, doing everything in her power to push them forward.
After the children went to school, she and Lu Yuan went to the CBD construction site to meet with the construction supervisors and suppliers to handle and solve problems. She knew that in 10 years, Beijing would host a world-renowned international sporting event, so she had very high requirements for the construction.
