Chapter 265

Parental Heart

The three of them suddenly heard the sound of an engine, and saw that He Junqiang had really started the car and was driving down the mountain tentatively.

"Can he do it? If he really drives it down, it will flip over, right?" Liu Xiaohong said.

Nie Weixing jumped up and sat up. "No, my mom took me to drive in the desert many times. You see the 90-degree cliff, but in fact, the sand is flat at the moment when the front of the car presses down."

However, if you want to drive a car down a 90-degree vertical slope, it requires not only skills but also courage.

He Junqiang was moving down little by little, and suddenly he stepped on the gas. He was howling in the car, but his voice had already spread throughout the mountains and fields.

After driving the car down the mountain, He Junqiang took out the key and crawled over to Nie Weimin's side.

"Welcome He Junqiang, who has experienced many things, to join us. How about it? What were you thinking about when you drove down the mountain?" Nie Weimin sat up and asked with a smile.

He Junqiang also lay on the hillside. "I was thinking, if it were me, I would find many ways to drive down in a roundabout way, but Nie Weimin's personality would definitely rush straight down, so I want to try to see how it feels to drive in your style."

"Have you found it? How do you feel?" Nie Weimin asked again.

He Junqiang said, "I still like the feeling of stability, but I just want to prove that I am absolutely no worse than you in any aspect."

The satellite took the flashlight, sat up, and ran to look at the flowers again. "Why do you always have so much to talk about? Don't disturb me. I have to go look at the flowers."

He Junqiang brought a few cans of beer from the car, sat down, opened a can and gave it to Liu Xiaohong, opened another can and gave it to Nie Weimin, and then drank a can for himself.

"It's really nice here." He Junqiang paused and sighed sincerely, "I've been wondering what it would be like if I came back right after graduation like Wei Min did."

"With a monthly salary of 300 yuan and an overtime allowance of 200 yuan, we used to be considered wealthy, but not anymore. Since 1986, prices have been no longer controlled by the government and have skyrocketed, so our wages seem quite low," said Liu Xiaohong. "If you want to get rich, you've come to the wrong place, really."

"Don't say anything. You are just Nie Weimin's puppy. You follow him wherever he runs." He Junqiang's eyes turned red with anger when he talked about this.

Liu Xiaohong said, "Is there anything wrong with this? I love Nie Weimin, I have loved him all my life. I just want to ask you, can you find a girl like me in this world to love you?"

He Junqiang was so angry that he laughed. "It is said that girls in China are very realistic now. As for foreign girls, forget about it. If a man has no economic foundation, how can he talk about marriage?"

Nie Weimin remained silent at this time.

Because his family is truly incomparable to that of ordinary people.

Nie Weimin laughed at others for saying that He Junqiang was a proud little peacock, but what about him? Wasn't he also a proud little peacock?

But Liu Xiaohong is different from him. She has never been proud or discouraged.

She looked thin and weak, but no matter how fast he ran, when he looked back, she was behind him. No matter how strong he was, when he looked back, she was no worse than him.

"Ah, it hurts." The satellite suddenly shouted from the other side.

Nie Weimin got up in a hurry. Liu Xiaohong also remembered and suppressed him. "You lie down, I'll go and take a look. I guess the little girl can't help touching the flowers."

Well, Liu Xiaohong did have a sore butt, and getting the iris injected was just a little painful, nothing serious, so she just continued to lie down.

He Junqiang poked the can of beer into the desert and lay down too.

"When I come back next time, you will have a child. I don't know what this place will look like." Suddenly, He Junqiang said slowly.

"This place will become bigger and more spacious. Of course we will have children. In about three years, I plan to quit the project team, get pregnant, and then have a baby." Liu Xiaohong said, "I don't know who my child will look like, but I think that if I have a child, I may become very similar to your father."

"It's strange, why does your child look like my dad?" said He Junqiang.

Liu Xiaohong said, "You know your father's character. I don't need to say more. When you were little, he often came to our farm. There was a girl named Qin Jiao in our farm. She was very close to him. Do you remember?"

He Junqiang thought for a moment and said, "I remember that my father took me to dinner with her and we talked about marriage."

"Your dad wanted to marry her at that time, and he even came to my dad to act as a matchmaker. But one time, Qin Jiao and I had an argument over a piece of chrysanthemum on the roadside, and she slapped me. Then, your dad happened to see it, and he told my dad that he would not get married. Because Qin Jiao dared to hit me, she would also dare to hit you after we got married."

He Junqiang sat up again. "No way. He clearly said that he was kicked out and she didn't want to marry him."

"He was afraid that you would be wronged, so he was determined not to remarry all these years," said Liu Xiaohong.

He Junqiang lay down again.

"When you were stranded in the United States, you probably didn't know how much pressure the organization put on your father. He had a heart attack, but he was too embarrassed to tell anyone. He didn't even dare to call 120. He called my father and kept saying that the military must not be informed. Before he passed out, he kept saying that you must not be told that he was ill."

He Junqiang sat up again and took a sip of beer in silence.

In fact, his father never told him these things.

"He wrote the passwords on all his bankbooks and gave them to my dad. He also put all the change he had saved, and even the shoes and insoles given to him by his unit at the time, neatly sized, in the cabinet, saying that if you couldn't make it in the United States, you wouldn't starve to death or have no food or clothes when you came back," Liu Xiaohong added.

He Junqiang squeezed the beer jar and flattened it.

"And your old father had a heart attack at the time. If he really died, you, as his son, might not even know when he died even though he had raised you all your life. He also asked my dad to keep it a secret if he died, and to send you the money and keep the things for you. Unless you come back, he can't tell you that he is dead."

For a divorced old father, this arrangement is really well organized.

He Junqiang wiped his eyes and still said nothing.

"I can work anywhere. When I returned to Dongfeng City, I found that I still had to rely on Nie Weimin. So if I want to leave, it's not a problem. Just go ahead and take good care of your father. He may be worthless in other aspects of his life, but he is a good father, really." Liu Xiaohong said.

He Junqiang stood and waited for a while, and seeing that the satellite was walking slowly, he came over, patted her on the shoulder, and carried her away.

"Aren't we being too heartless? I don't think I really told the satellite that the flower cannot be touched." Liu Xiaohong felt guilty.

Nie Weimin also felt guilty, "Actually, I haven't told her that." The two of them were so ungrateful that they forgot about their sister.

"She must be very angry."

"I still feel aggrieved."

"It's okay. I'll think of a way to move some flowers to her and send them directly to us. She will be happy." Wei Min said.

The heartless brother and sister-in-law sent away the unhappy little satellite in this way.

"He Junqiang probably doesn't want to stay here anymore. I think he wants to leave Dongfeng City," said Liu Xiaohong.

Nie Weimin said, "If he is not determined, even if you force him to stay, he will be unwilling to do so. Really, I would say that he will inevitably leave."

The stars were hanging lower and lower, and the sand was getting colder. The couple lay on the sand slope with their heads tilted.

"Liu Xiaohong, have you ever thought about what would have happened to our lives if we had not gone to college, if you had been adopted by Song Jian when you were in the orphanage?" Nie Weimin suddenly asked.

Liu Xiaohong thought for a moment and said, "I think I will still find a way to find you."

"But I really beat you many times when I was a child," said Nie Weimin.

Liu Xiaohong glanced at him and said, "But you are very good to Tiantian. I think it must be because I am not doing well enough that you hate me. If I do better, you will be nice to me, right?"

"Silly boy, that's just because she wears it better than you. As for whether it's better or not, who cares about that?" Nie Weimin said sincerely.

As for little boys, of course, they only like girls who are neatly dressed, pretty and love to smile.

Well, it doesn't matter if he said this in front of Liu Xiaohong. If Liu Xiaohong was not Liu Xiaohong but someone else, he would be beaten to death in no time.

"By the way, just imagine, if we were not like today, your family was very poor, so you dropped out of school early, and I became a social scoundrel, then would you be with me?"

"Yes." Liu Xiaohong said without hesitation.

Nie Weimin fell on top of her, holding her face and saying, "What if I end up getting you into jail, or if I end up putting your life in danger, what will you do?"

"If someone comes and sees you, they will laugh at you. You should get down quickly," said Liu Xiaohong.

"I just tried to suppress it, but I didn't go in." Nie Weimin refused. "Just tell me now."

Liu Xiaohong was at a loss for words and thought seriously. After a long while, she said, "It depends on how serious the problem is. Besides, there was a long period of time when I was a child when I thought you might go astray."

"For example?"

"Once, Huang Huacai beat you up, and you put gunpowder in her food. She had diarrhea and almost died. That year, we were only four years old."

Nie Weimin thought about it and realized that this was the case.

Liu Xiaohong then said, "When our mother first came, you were so proud of having a mother that you always secretly came to fight with my brother and stole the title of the leader of the gang from my brother. I felt that you would join the underworld sooner or later."

The road to growth was difficult. Many of my bad thoughts were scare away by my mother using the threat of cutting off her hands.

"I won't go into other details. When I was very young, I thought that if one day I called Nie Weimin 'Big Egg' and he didn't hit me, I would only look at him for the rest of my life and not look at anyone else."

Then, one day she called him "Big Egg", and he actually didn't hit her.

Of course, maybe he just didn't hear it.

Nie Weimin thought about it, shook his head, and said he didn't remember such a thing.

When he was a child, only Tiantian dared to call him by the nickname Big Egg. No one else dared to call him by that nickname. Whoever called him by that nickname would be punished.

"What if one day I am charged with murder or drug trafficking, and you happen to be able to take the blame, will you help me?" Nie Weimin tried to ask again.

When his father went to Daqing, he brought back a newspaper and thought he had hidden it well. However, after all, they were in the same family and there was nothing that he hadn't played with that belonged to his father.

He would often secretly take out that old Type 54 and disassemble it.

And when Chen Lina talks a lot, she actually doesn't really avoid children.

Erdan is simple-minded and he won't understand even if you tell him. He has a vague understanding of many things about defending the border and the people.

However, Nie Weimin, like his father, never really believed in those things.

It was not until he saw that newspaper that he finally realized that he might really have lived a very absurd life. Well, even if not, even if it was just a hypothesis.

Assuming he was caught for drug trafficking, Liu Xiaohong eventually took all the blame, sentenced him to death, and executed him immediately.

All his shock could not compare to the few words Liu Xiaohong said on his behalf.

He had always wondered if this girl had no bottom line. What was so good about him that she would sacrifice herself for him?

Liu Xiaohong pushed Nie Weimin off her body, sat up, and said, "How is that possible? I'm not crazy. If you really want to kill someone or set fire to something, I will die in your place. Do you really think I'm your puppy?"

"What if it really happened, and you really did that, what do you think was the reason?" said Nie Weimin.

Liu Xiaohong thought seriously for a long time and said, "It's impossible, Nie Weimin. Life is precious. My father died to protect me from bullets. Aunt, my father from the farm, our Principal Chai, has now taken his sister-in-law to Beijing to meet Secretary Tian, ​​as well as my grandfather and grandmother. So many good people raised me. My life is very precious. I will take the blame for you. You think too highly of yourself."

Nie Weimin immediately understood and felt relieved. "You are right. That is impossible."

But it is possible for Liu Xiaohong in her previous life, because in her previous life, her father Liu Gong was convicted of treason and was not a hero who prevented reactionaries from escaping.

But Wang Hongbing, who is kind-hearted by nature, is not her adoptive father.

Principal Chai, Tian Jin, she has never met a good person in her life. According to the newspaper, the devilish Song Jin, her adoptive father, was killed by Nie Weimin.

Therefore, Liu Xiaohong from her previous life still loved him, but it was a world-weary love, a love that recklessly disregarded everything.

In this life, Chen Lina may not have raised her personally, but she changed the environment of the mining area, which allowed her to meet more good people, and thus changed her character.

The most beautiful thing in this world is probably that I have silently liked my family for many years, and suddenly one day, I find that my family has also liked me for many years.

Nie Weimin thought silently in his heart.

The night breeze was gentle, and the sound of music came from far away. The couple lay side by side on the warm sand. They still had to keep working hard. Once they joined a working group, they could watch the sunset and the stars here together every evening.

Space Center Office.

Hong Jiu was feeling extremely uneasy and was anxiously waiting for her leader to interview her.

Finally, someone came in.

"Hong Jiu?"

"Wu, Professor Wu." Hong Jiu quickly stood up.

"It's you. Well, I should have thought of that. Apart from you, most people don't have such in-depth research on avionics."

Hong Jiu smiled awkwardly.

Professor Wu looked at her for a long time. "When you were about to leave, I rushed to the airport to persuade you. I told you that you must stay because our national conditions have created the disadvantage that in many cases, only children of high-ranking officials can learn advanced subjects, while you, you may have taken the place of a child who is the same as you or even better than you, and got a degree.

But you spent the country's money, the hard work of your mentors, and the most cutting-edge disciplines, but in the end you refused to work for the country. The losses you caused are enormous. Do you remember what you said to me at the time?"

Of course Hong Jiu remembered it. At that time, she only wanted to force Nie Weimin to apologize. Of course, her parents' pressure on her to get married quickly was also a factor. They pushed her too hastily.

Besides, she was so young at that time. She could not have thought that if she went abroad, she might never come back.

"You said that it was the school that accepted you and wanted to send you abroad. They didn't want to lecture you because these lectures have nothing to do with you. The country is willing to pay for you to go abroad, so it should bear the losses. Then, you turned around and left without looking back."

If Hong Jiu's parents had not been in prison, how could he have experienced firsthand the plight of having nowhere else to turn.

"I'm sorry, Professor Wu, I really lost my mind at that time. I'm sorry, but I am willing to come back now, and I promise that I have nothing to do with my parents..."

"It's a pity that the day you left, you were destined to not be able to work here no matter how strong your academic expertise was. Moreover, you have only been studying and have no practical experience. Such an important project of ours must be completed by people with professional experience. However, I can introduce you to a telecommunications company, the only one in our Republic. You should be able to make good use of your expertise there."

Professor Wu said this, tore up a note, wrote a few words on it, and gave Hong Jiu an address.

Of course, with Professor Wu's recommendation letter, Hong Jiu will definitely get a very good position, and his salary is estimated to be higher than that of Nie Weimin and Liu Xiaohong combined.

But, she could never enter this building or this factory again.

When Hong Jiu left, he turned around and took a look at another office.

Many of the country's top academicians in the fields of aviation, physics, mathematics, and energy, I don't know what they are discussing together.

Nie Weimin's father, Nie Bozhao, was also among them.

She turned around, took one last look at the office, and left with endless regret.

When she was young, when she had a lot, she never realized how precious the things she despised and threw away so casually were.

Many children who do not have a high-ranking father like her and do not have better interpersonal relationships may have higher IQs, better thinking and learning abilities than her, but just because they are not as good as her in hardware, they will miss the opportunity to come here forever.

"As for Hong Jiu, he failed the political review. The communications team should still be led by Wang Sitian and Wang Gong." Professor Wu said as he gently put Liu Xiaohong's file into another pile.

Classes have always existed, and always will. Children from high-class families receive a good education and have greater opportunities to find jobs.

However, thanks to her tenacity, Liu Xiaohong finally managed to secure a place in the team of 300 people.

From now on, no matter how many years pass, no matter how the aerospace industry will flourish.

She and her family will all work together and struggle in the same place.

"Congratulations Junqiang, Lao Wu, you are the one who protected this child. It's up to you to decide whether you can get him or not." someone said.

"he……"

Professor Wu was also hesitant. After all, he recognized Junqiang's ability. However, he was too cunning and always liked to use unconventional methods. Of course, he benefited from He Junqiang's unconventional methods.

That's why I called him back.

It's really a dilemma.

"Leader, I will work hard and conscientiously, really."

He Junqiang appeared at the door, stretched out his hand and saluted. "Perhaps you don't believe it, but it was not until today that I realized how difficult it was for my motherland and my father to achieve what I have today. It's true."

A piece of file floated past, and He Junqiang didn't know whether he was selected or not because no one told him.

Everyone buried their heads and continued to work.
