Chapter 264

Imi Flower

It just so happens that all the family members can take a sightseeing bus to visit the space center this afternoon.

Of course, the part that can be visited is definitely not confidential.

This type of tour has been gradually opened since two years ago.

But after all, we are now in a new era of reform and opening up, and everyone is a chosen one. Working in such harsh conditions, they are often away from their families for four to five years.

Take Gao Dayong for example, his father suddenly got cancer two years ago.

You know, Gao Dabao was brought up by his father Gao.

The old man couldn't close his eyes when he was dying. He was thinking about his grandchildren and wanted to know where his grandchildren were. He just couldn't close his eyes.

Gao Dayong asked the organization for review many times, and the organization's reply was always that the work of their avionics system was particularly heavy.

Moreover, after all, the work they are doing is so important that any negligence will cause immeasurable losses to the country, so they dare not distract the engineers.

Because of this, Gao Dabao still doesn’t know that his grandfather has passed away.

Today, Gao Dabao, oh no, if he was called by this nickname now, he would blush. His real name is Gao Gang, and he is much gentler than his rough and bold father, who is a physics researcher after all.

Take the sightseeing bus and the first stop is the Memorial Hall, then the Dongfeng Reservoir, and finally, you have to go to the Hu Yanglin Camping Park.

Nie Weijiang was in a lazy state and Deng Chun also looked absent-minded.

There is no way. These kids spend half a year running around outside, their minds full of money, and they have no respect for the sacred aerospace industry of their motherland.

Satellite was covered up by her mother again because she needed to be exposed to the wind and the sun. Miss Chen was afraid that her little satellite would not be beautiful if exposed to the sun.

There were dozens of people on a bus. Director Liu of the unit's logistics department, the one with the big-faced Liu Xiaohong, enthusiastically introduced Dongfeng Market. Then, just as everyone was about to set off, someone outside stopped the bus, got on the bus and said, "Nie Gong, is Nie Gong here?"

Two Nie workers stood up at the same time. Wei Min said, "I'm here," and Nie Bozhao also said, "I'm here."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Academician Nie, the leaders are looking for you, you may have to go to a meeting with them." said the visitor.

Chen Lina chuckled, "Okay, I'm sure I'm talking about you, hurry up."

The laborer stood up, and the engineers who were visiting with their families stood up and nodded.

Nie Weimin also stood up and wanted to help his father, but Nie Gong was so scared that he said, "Let go, I'm not unable to walk."

Well, once he got out of the car, everyone came alive.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Labourers are always busy." He Min spread his hands and said, "When we were in the mining area, he was the kind of person we rarely saw."

After a pause, he continued, "The disciple is better than the master. I believe that the strong military will be better than the laborers, really."

He Junqiang knew that the purpose of this meeting was to finalize the name of the team.

There was no chance for him to lead the team, but it was the tradition of the He family to show off their talents when they were outside.

So, he was smiling happily.

Nie Weimin also survived after his father passed away.

After all, his father was in the car just now, so he didn't dare to show up too much and was pretending to be dead.

"Junqiang, tell us about your pilot's license and your participation in the US-Iraq War in Persia. Although the kids here are excellent, none of them are as good as you. Come on, tell us." He Min said, shaking her son's shoulders.

"Wow, Junqiang actually served in the United States. No way, you are an American soldier?" Gao Dayong is really a good supporting actor. After all, he is a soldier, and he became interested as soon as he heard it.

As for the US-Iraq War in 1988, all the men here, except the women and children, know about it.

Jun Qiang smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you. I only served for one year."

Gao Dayong patted Gao Dabao's hand and said, "The US-Iran war and the bombing of the Persian Gulf are a shame for the Iranians. That is why we must join the space field. Because only if you are strong, we will not be afraid of the enemy's missile bombing."

He Junqiang himself served in the U.S. Army and, of course, experienced firsthand what freedom, equality and human rights are.

However, even if the tooth is knocked out, you have to swallow it and still maintain a good appearance.

"I have learned a lot of new things, but I have to say, Wei Min, your vision is too narrow. War is nothing more than conflicts of interests and religions. If you don't believe me, just open the "General History of the World" and see which one is not. Of course, it is precisely for this reason that I resolutely gave up my American green card and prepared to come back to build a new China," said He Junqiang.

There is beautiful music playing in the car.

"Our hometown is in the field of hope..."

The family members in the car all gave a thumbs up and said, "Listen to what Junqiang said, how come you guys don't have his awareness, huh?"

"Those who leave and don't come back will regret it sooner or later. Children, the technological power of this country depends entirely on you."

"The best thing is to learn skills and come back to serve the country."

Wei Min also laughed, "Uncle Gao, many young people who come to the United States cannot find a job after graduation and are unwilling to return to their home country. If they cannot get a green card, they will choose to join the army. The U.S. has a small number of soldiers, and they welcome foreign children to join the army. Of course, they will be sent to the front line where the war is raging.

But only after serving for three years can you apply for a green card from the Immigration Bureau. Junqiang only served for one year and was sent to the Persian Gulf. It is very likely that he did not get a green card even though he tried his best. Junqiang, to be honest, you are fine.

In fact, He Junqiang had only been in the army for three months and had not been to the front line. When He Min saw on TV that the offshore oil wells in the Persian Gulf had been blown up, she made up an excuse that He Junqiang had mental problems and brought him back.

Indeed, He Junqiang did that in order to get a green card.

He Junqiang and his son He Min looked at Nie Weimin who was sitting in the back, glanced at each other, sighed in unison, and thought, having a Nie Weimin is really nothing to brag about.

Nie Weimin was still shouting in the back, "Junqiang, you have been abroad for four years longer than I have, so you must have had a lot of experience. Tell us more. If you have any interesting stories, we all want to hear them."

Deng Chun was sitting at the back and said to Nie Weijiang who had his eyes closed, "I see your brother and He Junqiang are about to fight. Are they going to fight in the car?"

Wei Jiang was calm. "When they were kids, they used to fight all the time. Don't worry, He Jun is no match for my brother."

Nie Weimin's fighting skills were acquired throughout the mining area. Most people would be beaten up if they met him.

The satellite behind them was holding their teacups. "Brother Deng Chun, do you want some water? I also brought some big apples. Do you want some?"

Children are always the ones who have the most trouble bringing food when traveling, but once they are in the car, they are also the ones who want to eat the most.

Deng Chun took a big apple and took a bite. He was chewing it with a crunching sound, and suddenly said, "Wei Jiang, I've been watching satellites recently, and I always think she's very beautiful."

"You want to be beaten too?" Wei Jiang was originally lazy and looked nonchalant, but suddenly, the expression on his face changed.

Moreover, he picked up his big teapot in one go.

"No, Weijiang, don't do it. I just said she was pretty. What's the matter?"

"Others can say it, but you can't." Nie Weijiang said angrily.

Looking back at the little baby Nie Weixing, she has a round face and is wearing a little white dress. She is so pretty that she looks like a little fairy.

"Anyone who dares to look at her must beat me first," Nie Weijiang then said.

Now they have arrived at the Memorial Hall. Gao Dayong waved his hand and all the older generation people got off the bus and went into the Memorial Hall for a visit.

He Min's white wife also got out of the car with the help of He Min.

However, young people like Wei Jiang and Deng Chun were too lazy to get off the bus.

They heard that there would be beer, concerts, and barbecues near the reservoir, so they were eager to go there.

Liu Xiaohong has been sitting quietly beside Nie Weimin. They both wear the same military uniforms. Nie Weimin is straight and Liu Xiaohong is delicate. Well, as a couple, they are a scenic spot in the entire space center.

He Junqiang looked more and more frustrated. Seeing that Nie Weimin was staring at him, he said, "You said I joined the U.S. Army to get a green card. If I say I joined the Army to learn advanced capitalist technology, you will definitely not believe me. How about we compete in helicopters? After all, you guys are good at machinery, so flying an airplane is just for fun, right?"

"The space center is a no-fly zone. What you said is meaningless because we have plenty of time to spare when we start working.

But, have you ever played desert off-roading? Aren’t we going to Hu Yanglin? They are having a barbecue, and I want to see how well you American soldiers drive?" Nie Weimin said.

How to say it.

Now that I'm grown up, generally speaking, I don't talk about my former bravery anymore.

But, to put it bluntly, the hatred between He Junqiang and Nie Weimin was about the wife being stolen.

Thinking back to the time when Chen Lili had just given birth to her first daughter and didn’t want Liu Xiaohong for the first time, He Junqiang had just arrived at the base primary school and saw Liu Xiaohong for the first time. She was dancing with Erdan and his friend on the farm, wearing a red flower in her hair and a pretty little skirt.

He Junqiang is from Daqing. I have never seen such a beautiful girl in Daqing.

At that time, Liu Xiaohong was often seen hiding in the small woods behind the school crying alone. She was a very depressed child outside. However, depressed children always have more plans in their minds.

So he ran home and told Wang Revolution, who was still the school principal, that he wanted to adopt Liu Xiaohong.

Liu Xiaohong is a good student, which is one thing, and she is also capable of working, which is another. As for Wang Geming, Yuan Hua was anxious because he could not have a second child, so he wanted to adopt Liu Xiaohong.

It was such a good thing, it had even reached the stage of property transfer, but Nie Weimin messed it up.

That's not all.

When they were in high school, every boy wrote love letters to Liu Xiaohong. Nie Weimin didn't care about others except He Junqiang. Every time he wrote a letter, Nie Weimin would catch him and beat him.

Back then, He Junqiang couldn't resist the impulse of adolescence and liked to write a little note to tease Gao Xiaobing, and then write another one to tease Liu Xiaohong.

Gao Xiaobing would directly slap the note to Nie Weimin and say, "Weimin, beat him."

Liu Xiaohong, on the other hand, was very gentle and would quietly burn or tear up the note. However, if Nie Weimin found out, he would be beaten again.

Now thinking about it, I feel aggrieved and angry. How can the world be without beautiful girls?

The reason why I was so scared at first was because I was in high school for three years, which was like being in prison, and I could only see two little girls.

So, when the two classmates met, He Junqiang was determined to overpower Nie Weimin in terms of momentum and let Liu Xiaohong know that she was blind at the beginning.

As for Nie Weimin, he was determined to get hold of He Junqiang's little tail and make him give up his boastful style.

Look, Hu Yanglin is here.

Director Liu from the Logistics Department and his colleagues brought out the grill.

The generator is put on, the fire is lit, there is music, beer, barbecue, family members and children sit together, and chat in groups of three or three.

Chen Lina looked down on the dishes grilled by Director Liu of the Logistics Department and his people. She forcefully occupied a grill and was preparing meat for the children.

"Here, the peppers need to be pierced before roasting to make them tasty." She used a roasting skewer to pierce the peppers, watching them sizzle with oil on the grill. When they were done, she put them with a few skewers of meat and called out, "Weimin, you come and eat first."

"Okay, Mom." Nie Weimin ran to get some skewers of meat, and then he heard He Junqiang and He Min bragging and bullying others in high positions.

"In the area of ​​avionics, we are so far behind the United States. Really, the reason why we can't keep up with the technology is because you engineers have no creativity, and creativity is the most precious thing in this era."

Gao Dayong patted his son on the head and said, "Creativity, Junqiang is right. Alas, Dad doesn't have much money, so I can't send you to study abroad. It's Dad's incompetence, really."

He was a good engineer, but he was bitten by poisonous snakes in the desert, eaten by mosquitoes, and suffered from malaria. He also got frostbite from heatstroke and frostbite in the summer. He was scolded by He Min and his son, and his four years of work were wasted.

He Min's white wife is currently barbecuing with Chen Lina.

She was quite good at grilling charcoal meat. After it was done, she wiped the skewers clean carefully and asked Chen Lina to eat it.

Hey, Chen Lina tasted it and found that the meat she roasted was neither too old nor too tender, and the taste was just right.

I have to say that although He Min, this rich lady, is speechless, she is gentle and silent, just like a treasure. Just looking at her smile, there is indescribable wisdom. Chen Lina really loves her more and more.

"By the way, Weixing, don't you want to see the Ivy Flower? Come on, I'll take you to see it." Nie Weimin said suddenly.

When Wei Xing heard this, he was of course happy, "Okay, brother, come on, let's go together."

"Liu Xiaohong, oh no, Wang Sitian, do you want me to call you? Come quickly." Nie Weimin called out again, and Liu Xiaohong followed.

Look, He Junqiang is still sitting with his father, and they are so high up that they are almost sinking into a hole in the ground.

"Gao Gang, Junqiang, let's go together." Nie Weimin shouted again, Gao Gang stood up, and pulled He Junqiang, "Let's go, let me show you the Ivy flowers in our desert. You've definitely never seen them before."

Deng Chun wanted to go too, so he ran to the SUV and saw that Nie Weimin had already closed the door. "Sorry, there's no room."

When He Junqiang saw that it was Nie Weimin who was driving, he immediately understood something. "You are used to driving in the desert. You are trying to bully me, the new guy, Weimin. Stop joking. Before you teach me a lesson, think about the people in the car first, especially your satellite, what a lovely girl."

Before he finished speaking, the car had already rushed out.

He Junqiang was sitting in the passenger seat, and his seat belt wasn't even fastened yet. He felt the push on his back, and there happened to be a tree in front of him. He thought Nie Weimin was going to hit the tree and commit suicide. He screamed and shouted, "Nie Weimin, there's a woman in the car. Do you want to kill me and take someone else with you?"

The front of the car brushed past a tree and headed straight into the desert.

Wei Xing and Liu Xiaohong had already fastened their seat belts. Moreover, Wei Xing said, "Brother, you are not a good driver. You are driving too slowly. If our mother were to really learn how to drive, she would be much faster than you, really."

Nie Weimin smiled and said, "Junqiang, tell me, why did your mentor at the foreign university kick you out of the laboratory..." Before he finished speaking, He Junqiang screamed again, because there was a car in front of them, and Nie Weimin was still accelerating and was about to hit the sedan.

"You're crazy, you're crazy." He Junqiang screamed, "I just occasionally took his scientific research results out of the laboratory..."

Nie Weimin turned the corner and drove the car easily. "Oh, you stole the research results? Well, you can say you did it for the good of the motherland, but I think the real tough ones are our experts in two bombs and one satellite. They developed everything by themselves. What kind of ability is it to steal other people's things? Well, you turned around and sold some good things to our leaders. You made great efforts to tackle the problem, so you can come back, right?"

"I didn't, and Nie Weimin, don't ask me anymore, I want to sleep, I want to sleep now."

Anyway, his sister and wife were in the car, and He Junqiang didn't believe that Nie Weimin would really drive the car and kill himself.

However, he had not closed his eyes yet. They had already entered the desert and saw Nie Weimin driving the car straight up a very steep mountain.

"Weixing, your brother wants to die with you. What do you say we should do? What should we do?" He Junqiang screamed.

The satellite was concentrating on watching Nie Weimin's operation, while Liu Xiaohong simply closed her eyes, as if it didn't matter even if Nie Weimin really took her to death.

Gao Gang was also scared. "Worker, don't be kidding, really don't be kidding, it's vertical over there, 90 degrees, really, brake, brake quickly."

"Tell me, Junqiang, did you come back because you couldn't get a green card and cried and begged the leaders here?"

"Yes, yes, I joined the army. My stepmother is still white, but it is still extremely difficult to get a green card. You don't know how many outstanding Chinese people there are in the United States now. They have backgrounds and identities in the country, but they can only swipe the plates and will never get a green card." He Junqiang shouted.

The car finally stopped at the top of the mountain.

"In fact, I could have gotten a green card, but my grandma died abroad and kept her eyes open before she died. My dad said that he had to die in the country, so I gave up my green card and came back. So, I came back just for my dad," He Junqiang shouted.

At night, the stars are shining brightly, and over the hill is a reservoir.

"Look, the scenery is so magnificent." Nie Weimin said after getting out of the car.

The mountains in the desert have 70-degree slopes on one side and 90-degree cliffs on the other, but they are all made of the softest sand on the planet.

But right on the top of the mountain, there is a flat area that can accommodate a car.

He Junqiang and his partner were so weak that they got out of the car. They looked and saw, as expected, an extremely large artificial reservoir with endless waves.

"Do you know why we need to build such an artificial reservoir?" Nie Weimin asked as he watched Liu Xiaohong and Nie Weixing slowly sliding down the sand hill and running towards the reservoir.

Gao Gang said, "Because the pressure is too great, I really can't stand it. I can jump into the reservoir and when I float up, I will be relieved."

He Junqiang took it seriously.

Gao Gang then said, "There are Imi flowers here, the only flowers that can bloom in the desert, on the sand slope opposite the reservoir. This is also the place where we often come to watch the sunset when we work very late and are very tired. Standing by the vast reservoir, looking at the sun and moon above your head, and then looking at the endless desert, you will feel how insignificant human beings are in the vast and vast universe. Bound to this planet by gravity, among all the people who have existed throughout the ages, how many people can stand here like us and carry out such a great cause. Thinking about it this way, you can be full of fighting spirit and devote yourself to work."

As he spoke, Gao Gang shouted, "Engineer Wang, wait for me, wait for me."

Liu Xiaohong and Nie Weixing simply sat down and slid down. "Come on, Engineer Gao, let's go see the Imi flowers together."

He Junqiang put his hands on his hips and looked at the lake at the foot of the hill. In the lake were bright stars.

After a long pause, he said, "In the United States, if you can really make a good living, it is indeed a paradise. I got a ticket to heaven, but my dad said that he must die here, so I came back. Well, Nie Weimin, I will leave to a large extent, but today I just want to make my dad happy and make him happy for once, so don't expose me again. My dad just wants to save face, he likes to brag and praise me outside, why do you have to expose him, he is so old, and he married such an old woman just to make more money for me so that I can live a life without worries about food and clothing, why bother?"

"Gao Dayong is older than your father, and you and your father insist on stepping on him to feel superior. I just don't like your behavior. Really, Junqiang, I have to slide down from here too. The car is yours now, drive it down."

As Nie Weimin spoke, he ran forward two steps and slid down directly from the sand hill.

The reservoir is shimmering with waves and the moonlight is shining. The desert at night is so peaceful and gentle.

Nie Weixing came here to see the Imi flower. Unfortunately, due to her good physique, her legs were almost sore from walking, but she still hadn't found the Imi flower.

Finally, Liu Xiaohong turned on the flashlight and said, "Satellite, come quickly, the flowers are right here."

Nie Weixing could no longer walk and was crawling with difficulty. Nie Weimin followed and carried his sister on his back.

"This flower is really small, and it's not colorful." The satellite said as he looked at the little flowers, only the size of a little finger, dotted in the desert, and looking fluffy and like succulent plants.

Liu Xiaohong pointed the flashlight at the flower, shining it slightly.

The dewdrops on the flowers reflected the light of the flashlight, and in the moment she waved, the petals really turned into a variety of colors.

"Brother, this flower is so beautiful." Wei Xing said sincerely.

Good-looking ones have aroused the girlish heart in the tomboy Nie Weixing. "I will stay here tonight. No one of you can take me away, really."

Nie Weimin patted the soft sand beside him that was warmed by the sun and let Weixing lie down. He also lay down on the side and pulled Liu Xiaohong over, and the three of them lay together.

The moon in the sky is so round.

Gao Gang was walking around the reservoir alone. When he came here, he saw three people lying side by side. He shook his head and sighed, "Why do I feel like a big light bulb?"

Turning around, he left again.

Nie Weimin glanced sideways at his sister. What a lovely little sister, so heartless, like a blank sheet of paper.

Looking at Liu Xiaohong again, he whispered, "Does it still hurt?"

Liu Xiaohong was quietly washing her underwear, and he had to worry about whether he was hurting his wife.

Liu Xiaohong also smiled and shook her head, "It doesn't hurt."
