"Hurry, hurry, come in, Qingyun, I'm talking to Ji Yue's father." Ji's mother came forward with a smile on her face, but when she saw what Su Qingyun was holding, she frowned again, "Why are you bringing things with you, kid? Ah Yue, why don't you stop me?"
Ji Yue was silent. He hadn't realized that Su Qingyun was going to his house to buy things.
"It's a thoughtful gift from a child. Just accept it." Father Ji took the gift from Su Qingyun with a kind smile, "Qingyun, right? Come in and sit down."
"Thank you, uncle and aunt." Su Qingyun walked into the Ji family with a smile.
"Sit down for a while and have some fruit. The food will be ready soon." Ji's mother said, "Old Ji, you and Ayue can sit with Qingyun for a while and chat."
Su Qingyun hurriedly said: "Auntie, you are busy, don't worry about me."
Ji's mother turned and went into the kitchen. Only then did Ji's father take a good look at Su Qingyun. She looked like an ordinary student, except that she was prettier. Could it be that Ji Yue was attracted to the girl's beauty?
Father Ji casually asked a few questions about Su Qingyun's family situation. When he heard that she had three older brothers, he smiled and said, "It seems that your family has a lot of descendants. It's good to have many brothers. They can protect your younger sister."
"Yes, uncle. My three brothers are very good to me." Su Qingyun smiled. It was indeed her blessing to have these brothers.
"Ayue's mother feels regretful. If she wasn't in poor health, she would definitely have another child. Ayue is still a little lonely." Father Ji's tone was a little regretful. Indeed, people in this era value having many children and good fortune.
"Dad, why are you saying this?" Ji Yue frowned, "Do you really think having a brother is a good thing?" There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
His father is not an only child, he has a younger brother. However, Ji Yue sneered in his heart, because that so-called uncle stabbed them in the back when their family was in the most difficult time.
Father Ji suddenly fell silent. After a long time, he sighed and his expression became a little gloomy.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more."
Su Qingyun looked at the expressions of the father and son, and keenly felt that they might be talking about something secret. She immediately changed the subject, "Uncle, I heard that your family used to live in the capital. Can you tell me what the capital is like?"
She looked at Ji's father with curiosity.
"Beijing." Father Ji put on a nostalgic expression. He thought for a moment and said, "Beijing is huge, very huge. The roads are wide, there are all kinds of scenic spots and historical sites, it's very spectacular, there are skyscrapers eighty or ninety meters high, there are all kinds of fresh food, the most advanced ideas, the most fashionable clothes..."
Father Ji's words were filled with admiration, and anyone could hear his nostalgia for that piece of land. As he spoke, Ji Yue pursed his lips, and scenes from the past flashed through his mind.
Su Qingyun was also a little disappointed. The limitations of the times really played tricks on the fate of many people.
Although Father Ji spoke in a very gentle tone, the aura he exuded could not be deceived. The aura of a superior who had been in a high position for a long time could not be concealed at all. But even now that he had fallen to this point, he was still calm. When talking about the past, there was only nostalgia and calmness.
Su Qingyun couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, don't you have any resentment in your heart?"
Hearing this question, Ji's father was stunned for a long time, looking at her in surprise, and Ji Yue's expression also fluctuated.
After a while, Ji's father smiled calmly. He said slowly, "I don't hold any grudges, because I know that everything I've experienced isn't the fault of any one person, but rather a minor deviation in our country's path to the future. It will eventually get back on track, so how could I hold any grudges?"
"Decades ago, our ancestors took countless detours and wrong paths before finding the right path to save the country. Today, they are just inevitable setbacks in the torrent of history. They are important to the country, but insignificant to individuals. We are already lucky enough and don't ask for anything else."
"I believe there will be a rainbow after the storm, and dawn after the darkness. All we need to do is wait."
Su Qingyun listened to all this in a daze, and felt her chest swell up and a surge of indescribable emotions. Her eyes were dry and almost red.
When Father Ji said these words, his expression was still relaxed, with the calmness of someone who had experienced all kinds of wind and rain, and the composure of someone who was as calm as a mountain and remained unmoved by any storm.
Su Qingyun was shocked. She was an outsider of this era and knew clearly about the development of future generations. But now, everyone who was working hard for the future of the country did not know what the future would look like, but they still firmly believed that tomorrow would be better.
A grain of sand of the times, when it falls on everyone, is like a mountain, but there are still many people who carry the burden and move forward like Yugong moving the mountain.
These people are worthy of admiration and worth remembering.
Father Ji looked at the admiration in her eyes and laughed out loud, "Let's not talk about these heavy topics. We are old now. The future of the times belongs to you. You need to work hard. Come on."
"As long as you have the ability and ambition, you must strive to reach further and higher places." Father Ji encouraged, "This place is still too small, don't get trapped."
"I will, uncle." Su Qingyun said seriously with a firm tone.
Of course, she will go higher and further to complete her unfinished career.
Su Qingyun smiled and said, "In the future, I will definitely go to the capital to see the places my uncle mentioned and meet people I haven't seen for a long time."
The capital is Qin Ying's long-lost hometown. After the turmoil, she has completely lost contact with the capital and has no news of her parents. She has thought about it for more than ten years, and Su Qingyun has seen it all.
