Chapter 273 Self-praise
Two days later, Li Wenxi returned to China with Professor Wang. After a day or two of rest, she began to deal with some work on the project.
Time was tight, but she was always thinking about Commander Han and Fang Shufen, so after a day or two of busy work, she went to the military compound with the gifts she brought for them.
When she arrived at the door of Han's house, Li Wenxi heard Commander Han's hearty laughter coming from the yard. Inside the room, Commander Han was showing Fang Shufen the newspaper in his hand with great interest, and said excitedly: "Look, Xiaoxi is in the newspaper, together with her mentor Professor Wang, people say that the scene of the master and apprentice attending the International Cryptography Conference together is a rare story. Xiaoxi is really promising."
"Let me see, let me see." Fang Shufen grabbed it and stared at the picture of Li Wenxi wearing a formal suit and holding a microphone to give a speech on the newspaper. "Xiaoxi looks really good, look at her temperament, look at her aura, our Ayi has a good eye." Fang Shufen's face was filled with indescribable joy.
"You can even boast to Ayi about this. You are really capable." Commander Han looked at Fang Shufen with a smile.
"Tsk, without Ayi, would you have the chance to show off Xiaoxi, your daughter-in-law, to others?"
Captain Han touched his nose angrily and changed the subject, "Is Xiaoxi coming soon?"
As he was speaking, Li Wenxi walked in carrying something: "Uncle and aunt."
When Captain Han and Fang Shufen heard the familiar voice, they immediately turned around and saw Li Wenxi standing at the door carrying something, and they both showed surprised smiles on their faces.
"Xiaoxi is here." Fang Shufen quickly put down the newspaper in her hand, went to meet her, and held Li Wenxi's hand: "You kid, you always bring so many things every time, it's really too polite."
Li Wenxi smiled and handed the gifts to Fang Shufen and Han Junchang: "Auntie, I won't bring them next time. But these are some small gifts I brought from Country M for you. I hope you like them."
Then everyone looked at the gifts together again, it was very lively.
Han Junchang and Fang Shufen were all smiling, they didn't care about these things, they were just happy for Xiaoxi's kindness.
After looking at the gifts, Commander Han asked again: "Xiaoxi, how do you feel about attending this conference? You look very energetic in the photo."
Li Wenxi looked at the newspaper on the table and knew what Commander Han was referring to, so she smiled and said: "It feels like a very good opportunity to learn and communicate. I have gained a lot of new insights and broadened my horizons. I also met many seniors and bigwigs in the industry and gained a lot."
Fang Shufen smiled and pulled Li Wenxi to sit down, saying affectionately: "You can achieve such an achievement, and your uncle and aunt are very happy."
"Yes, Xiaoxi," Commander Han sat back in his seat and said seriously, "We have all seen your efforts and achievements. You have done a great job, but you must also remember that you should not be proud of your victory or give up on your defeat. Just keep working hard."
Fang Shufen glanced at Commander Han and said, "You can see that you start lecturing with a stern face after just a few minutes. You start nagging as soon as Xiaoxi comes back. Xiaoxi, don't listen to his nagging."
Wu Yun happened to walk to the door of Han's house and heard Commander Han's voice in the house. She vaguely heard His tone of preaching to Li Wenxi made her feel happy, and she smiled. She knocked on the door and shouted, "What's the matter that makes you so noisy?" As
she spoke, she walked in and saw Li Wenxi sitting on the sofa. She smiled even more brightly, "Hey, isn't this Han Yi's girlfriend? Han Yi is not at home, but you come here so often. You are more filial than those married daughters-in-law in our family compound." She smiled and pretended to be friendly, but her words were sharp.
Li Wenxi could not hear the little thorn in Wu Yun's words. She didn't know how she had offended this person, but this person had nothing to do with her, and she was too lazy to think about it, and she was not prepared to pay attention to her. She just smiled slightly.
Seeing that Li Wenxi didn't reply, Wu Yun continued, "Xiaoxi, it's better to be like you who is not busy. You can come to the family compound whenever you have time." She glanced between Li Wenxi, Commander Han, and Fang Shufen, then smiled and continued to talk to herself, "Unlike my daughter Xiaoxiao, who has been very busy recently. Not only does she have to take the students in her class to participate in the city's literary and artistic competitions, she also has to participate in the city's outstanding teacher competition. She is really busy on both ends." As she spoke, she shook her head proudly.
"Their principal often praises her, saying that she teaches well and her students are far ahead in grades. Maybe this time Xiaoxiao will be able to get the title of the city's outstanding teacher." Wu Yun was excitedly praising her daughter, while secretly glancing at Li Wenxi to observe her reaction.
Commander Han never liked Wu Yun's behavior, so he told Xiaoxi to eat more fruit and went to the study alone.
Li Wenxi didn't want to listen any more, so she left on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
Fang Shufen frowned slightly when she heard this. She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but she still kept a smile on her face and replied lightly: "Xiaoxiao is indeed good. But our Xiaoxi is also very busy, and she also squeezed out time to come and see us."
Wu Yun didn't believe it, but pretended to ask Fang Shufen casually: "I just heard that Commander Han's tone seemed a bit serious. Is he scolding Xiaoxi for something?"
Fang Shufen finally understood why Wu Yun kept praising Xiaoxiao, and said: "Ah, nothing, Old Han just said something to Xiaoxi about being humble and not being proud. After all, she just "I just came back from the International Cryptography Conference. I gave a speech at the conference and it was even reported in the newspaper."
As she spoke, she picked up an open newspaper from the table next to her and handed it to Wu Yun, "Look, this is Xiaoxi's photo. Don't you think that Old Han is a person who likes to spoil the fun? When he sees that children have achieved something, he likes to pour cold water on them. I didn't know him yet, but the more cold water he pours on
people, the happier he is." Wu Yun took the newspaper and saw a photo of Li Wenxi standing on the podium with the title "National Tsing Hua University students overcome international cryptography problems and attend the International Cryptography Conference." She was stunned, her expression suddenly became extremely embarrassed, and the smile on her face froze for a few seconds.
"This... Xiaoxi... is really amazing..." Her voice was a little dry, and she swallowed awkwardly, not knowing how to continue praising her.
Fang Shufen took over the conversation at this time, smiling: "Yes, we are all proud of her."
Wu Yun's expression seemed even more unnatural. She smiled awkwardly and whispered: "That, that's right." But she felt bitter in her heart. Her words praising Xiaoxiao just now seemed ridiculous.
She originally wanted to show off her daughter's achievements, but she was completely silenced by this jaw-dropping honor. She quietly took back the topic, sat down with a forced smile and continued to drink tea. After a while, she found an excuse to leave.
