"She tasted the hawthorn in the braised pork and said she liked it."
Liao Yuanjie was overjoyed.
"I've gained two pounds because of these hawthorns you gave me."
Old Li touched the flesh on his stomach; thankfully, it was still firm.
Liao Yuanjie was worried that Fan Juan would get tired of eating braised pork, so he thought of adding something to the braised pork to make it delicious but not greasy, which caused Old Li a lot of trouble.
I tried making pot after pot of braised pork before finally getting the perfect consistency.
Qin Nian didn't expect that Li Wen's interest in computers wasn't limited to games, but had extended to computer programs. After being repeatedly asked questions by her son, Qin Nian found some books for Li Wen.
“These mothers have notes. Take a look first, and write down anything you don’t understand. If your mother isn’t home, you can come to the research institute on the weekend. You know all the uncles and aunts in the mothers’ group. If your mother isn’t home, you can ask them.”
"Thank you, Mom."
Liwen happily hugged the book, gently turning the pages, and even when it was almost bedtime, he was reluctant to put it down.
Li Wu fell asleep as soon as he lay down, snoring away, and the light on didn't disturb his deep sleep.
"Liwen, it's time to go to sleep, or you'll be late tomorrow."
Wang Xing reminded him, and Li Wencai carefully put the books away and placed them on the desk.
"Liwen, you really enjoy studying computers?"
Wang Xing turned off the light and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, when I grow up I want to be a researcher like my mom."
“I want to be a diplomat. I want to go to other countries and see the world. It should be very interesting.”
The two children talked about their dreams and fell asleep without realizing it.
In the military region, Hu Jun looked through a stack of documents again and again. Among these documents were assessment forms for each person who participated in the secret training. These comprehensive assessment items would be the key to determining their future destination.
Hu Jun sorted out everyone's assessment forms according to their levels, and there were two other people sitting with him.
"These are the shortlisted candidates. Take a look, and if they're acceptable, then finalize the list and submit it."
The military region has never been a place where anyone can have absolute power.
The selection process did not discriminate based on kinship, and Shen Xianjun's name was prominently listed. He possessed excellent overall qualities, including strong physical and mental abilities.
The list has been finalized and approved by the higher authorities.
"You'll have three days off. Next, you'll be going to a secret base for fully enclosed training."
Hu Jun relayed the message to each person.
After the meeting, Shen Xianjun stayed behind.
"Brother, are you going back to the compound?"
"I have other things to do. Go back by yourself. This secret training will last a long time. Spend some time with the children and your aunt."
After Hu Jun finished speaking, he dismissed Shen Xianjun.
It's been four months since the Lunar New Year, and I haven't been able to take a single day off.
Shen Xianjun returned to the family compound at noon. No one was home. After thinking for a moment, he pushed his bicycle to buy groceries. When he passed the gate of the research institute, he told the security department to pass on a message to Qin Nian that he would be free to come home for dinner that evening.
The security department made a phone call to Qin Nian's research lab.
"Researcher Qin is not in her office right now; she's doing experiments. I'll let her know."
After the call ended, Shen Xianjun, who was standing nearby, heard it and nodded his thanks.
I bought groceries and then went to a noodle shop.
"Brother Ershun".
“Xianjun is here, Ershun, this is Xianjun.”
Gui Xiang saw Shen Xianjun and quickly introduced him to Er Shun.
"Current military."
