Gu Zhiyun held a model airplane in his hand, which was incredibly lifelike from the fuselage to the wings.
Anzi had mentioned long ago that she wanted to fly a plane when she grew up, and Gu Zhiyun took it to heart.
He used wood and scrap steel to make an airplane model for Anzi.
Children in the countryside rarely have any novel toys. Anzi was even happier to receive the airplane model than when he received lucky money during the Chinese New Year. He held it in his hands and carefully played with it, afraid of breaking it.
"Brother Gu, what kind of plane is this?"
Gu Zhiyun pointed to the red characters on the fuselage and said, "It says here: my country's first generation of enemy-killing fighter jets."
"Wow! Fighter jets, aren't those planes that can shoot down the enemy?"
Anzi looked at Gu Zhiyun with fervent admiration, "Brother Gu, when I grow up, build me a real fighter jet, I want to fly it!"
Gu Zhiyun looked at Old Man Xu: "Alright, but that depends on whether Professor Xu is willing to teach me how to build fighter jets."

Old Xu took the airplane model from Anzi, examined it carefully, and exclaimed:
"Xiao Gu, everyone praises your skillful hands. Today I truly witnessed it. With such skill, you could win the top prize in a national model competition."
Gu Zhiyun smiled modestly.
He doesn't like to show off, but Shen Jingyan knows that he won first prize in the national model competition when he was in the fifth grade of elementary school.
When Shen Jingyan visited Zhiyun's hometown last time, she saw a photo of him receiving an award on stage. In that competition, he had made a model airplane.
"How do you know what our country's first generation of enemy fighter jets looked like?" Old Xu asked curiously.
“My parents participated in the development of the first generation of enemy fighter jets. I read my dad’s manuscript and wrote it down.”
Old Xu chuckled with satisfaction: "This is what it means for the student to surpass the teacher, young Gu. It would be a waste of talent for the aerospace engineering program at the Imperial University to be without you!"
Upon receiving affirmation from a leading scientific researcher, Gu Zhiyun's usually impassive handsome face finally broke into a wide smile.
The atmosphere at the Shen family home tonight was lively and warm, and everyone's smiles were genuine.

This was the first time Anzi had ever properly celebrated his birthday. Shen Yulan had even made longevity peaches for him. Anzi hugged the model airplane with one hand and ate the longevity peach with the other, his rosy little face beaming with happiness.
When Chen Feng was alive, she practically let Anzi grow up without any care. Any good food at home was secretly given to Shen Yuqin. Let alone celebrating his birthday, Chen Feng probably couldn't even remember the exact day Anzi was born.
It was all because shortly after Anzi was born, a villager who came to see the child said, "This baby is fair-skinned and chubby, with big, bright eyes. He looks just like his older sister!"
From then on, Chen Feng became much colder towards An Zi. She hated that the child she gave birth to didn't look like her, so she gave all her love to Shen Zhiqiang and Shen Yuqin.
Now that Shen Zhiqiang has married a formidable wife and listens to Pan Yunxia's every word, Chen Feng has no choice but to place all her hopes on Shen Yuqin.
Anzi didn't seem sad at all about his mother's passing; on the contrary, he was even more lively than before.
Seeing the harmonious scene at the Shen family home, Shen Jingyan became even more convinced that it was the right thing to do to persuade Shen Honggang to divorce.
The Shen family lived happily ever after, and Shen Jingyan could go to university with peace of mind.
A few days later, Old Man Xu somehow obtained the answers to all the subjects in the college entrance examination.
He called the educated youth together and guided them to estimate their scores and apply for universities.

"Song Qihang, 326 points. If you want to study chemical engineering, you can apply to Beijing Petroleum University."
Song Qihang asked uncertainly, "Professor Xu, the Capital Petroleum University is a national key university. Is my score enough?"
Old Xu assured him confidently, "It's enough, absolutely enough!"
"Zhang Wanfang, 309 points. You are a liberal arts student. To score over 300 points is already an outstanding achievement among liberal arts students."
Unable to contain her excitement, Zhang Wanfang exclaimed, "Professor Xu, I want to apply to the University of Posts and Telecommunications and work at the post office in the future!"
Old Xu said, "It should be fine!"
Shang Xiaorong, who was standing nearby, joked, "How come someone's ambitions have changed so easily? You said you wanted to go to a language university before, but ever since you started dating, you want to go to the post office! Everyone knows that when you go to mail mail, you want to receive someone's letter as soon as possible!"
Zhang Wanfang blushed deeply and hurriedly tried to cover Shang Xiaorong's mouth.
Although Shang Xiaorong didn't reveal who Zhang Wanfang's boyfriend was, Shen Jingyan immediately guessed it.
It couldn't be anyone but Jiang Wanpeng!

When Zhang Wanfang was scalded on the arm by Zhao Yanyan and Jiang Wanpeng took her to the hospital, the two had already fallen for each other.
Zhang Wanfang was always the most excited when the postman came to the forest farm. Sometimes she would rush to the mailroom to collect the mail while she was eating.
Shen Jingyan saw her hiding alone in the grove several times, holding a letter and grinning foolishly.
"Xiao Yang, what score did you estimate?" Old Xu asked Yang Zinuo.
Yang Zinuo was fairly satisfied with his score: "Around 350 points."
The educated youth were all amazed when they heard the score.
