Chapter 724 Do You Understand?
Lin Qingqing was very conflicted about what to tell Xue Guixiang.
The most important thing is that she only vaguely guessed that Zhou Zhuo might be researching a weapon, satellite or spacecraft. In fact, she had no evidence, and she didn't know what he was doing.
But Xue Guixiang was not stupid. The fact that she asked this question proved that she had already been suspicious.
"You tell me, I can bear it." Seeing that her daughter-in-law was hesitant, Xue Guixiang suddenly felt powerless and made the worst plan.
My daughter-in-law never likes to talk in a rambling way.
Her hesitation proved that Zhou Zhuo really had something wrong.
Seeing her mother-in-law's pale face, Lin Qingqing knew she was overthinking it, and hurriedly said, "Mom, I can only tell you that Zhou Zhuo is not in any danger. He is fine."
Xue Guixiang forced a smile: "You are comforting me."
After much deliberation, Lin Qingqing finally told what little she knew about Zhou Zhuo.
She felt that since the leader told her, it was to reassure her. Similarly, as the mother of a hero, Xue Guixiang needed reassurance even more.
"Mom, Zhou Zhuo is really fine. He just went to do something important. This matter concerns the country and the nation. He is now the son of the country. Do you understand what I mean?"
Xue Guixiang shook her head: "I don't understand..."
"Simply put, it's like being a soldier, following orders and obeying the country's arrangements."
"My son is not a soldier, he's just a college student. Why would he follow orders?"
"Because your son is so outstanding, he ranked first in the country in math on the college entrance examination and has an exceptional memory. If such a talent doesn't contribute to the country, wouldn't it be a waste? You just need to know that your son is completing a particularly great mission, that's all.
It is an honor for your son that the country has chosen him. At the same time, it is also a blessing for the country to have a talent like your son."
Although Xue Guixiang didn't understand why the country chose her son, after her daughter-in-law said this, she suddenly felt that her son was very great.
Moreover, the daughter-in-law said that her son's life was not in danger.
This made her feel relieved.
She is proud of her son for being able to do his bit and make his own contribution to the country's development.
She felt particularly relieved to have given birth to such a son.
Although Xue Guixiang is just a rural woman, she is kind-hearted, has a deep understanding of justice, and is aware of the overall situation.
Seeing her mother-in-law was silent, Lin Qingqing thought she was worried, so she continued to comfort her: "Mom, don't you trust me? Think about it, if something happened to Zhou Zhuo, would I still be able to talk to you so calmly? I'm afraid I would have been worried to death."
Xue Guixiang reached out and took her daughter-in-law's hand, saying seriously, "I believe you, and I believe even more that my son is fine. He can do his bit for the country, and that makes me proud as a mother. I just miss him a little. It's New Year's Day, and I wonder how he's doing out there."
"Mom, don't worry, Zhou Zhuo must be doing well."
Xue Guixiang looked at her daughter-in-law's eyes which were as red as rabbits, and thought to herself that the one who felt the worst was actually her daughter-in-law. The young couple could not be together during the New Year, and she had to comfort her as a mother-in-law. It was really hard for her daughter-in-law.
"Qingqing, you have suffered a lot. It has never stopped since you married into our family. Now Zhou Zhuo is not at home, and you are alone..." Xue Guixiang felt very guilty towards her daughter-in-law from the bottom of her heart.
