Chapter 323 Forgive You
A line of vehicles arrived in front of a small building.
Wang Jiaxiang got out of the car and his heart was filled with emotion when he saw the two-story building.
This was the starting point of his successful career. Here he once had his glory, a happy home, his beloved children, and his beloved wife. But it was also here.
All my dreams were shattered, and all my love and kinship were severed.
There is betrayal here, and it is really hard not to think of the past when seeing this.
Love and hate are entangled, and so are grudges and emotions!
There were two rows of people standing neatly in front of the small building. When they saw Wang Jiaxiang, everyone bowed respectfully.
"Teacher, welcome home."
Among these two rows of people, there are old men with white hair like him, men who are almost middle-aged, and even a few young people who are about twenty-four or twenty-five.
There was eagerness in their eyes and joyful expressions on their faces.
My heart is filled with admiration and respect for the old man.
"You're all here."
Seeing these former students of mine, my heart was filled with emotion.
The children were sincere to him. Even in that era, when his own relatives and his own son had cut off ties with him, his students tried their best to protect him.
Over the years, he became disappointed with the world, hopeless about everything, and even cut off contact with all his students.
But when he saw them, he knew that these students had tried very hard to help him. During the years when he was sent down to the countryside, these students almost took turns to visit him, bring him things, and encourage him to live well.
He even used all his connections with relatives and friends to protect him.
It’s just because he was desperate, and because of despair, he gave up a lot of things.
Even gave up on seeing them again.
Seeing these students again, he could still feel their respect and admiration for him.
These kids are still the same as before.
"Teacher, we all take turns to take care of your house. Someone cleans it every day and keeps it the same as it was before. Nothing has been moved. We even found all the books on your desk.
Not a single book was left behind. We are all waiting for you to come back, waiting for you to lead us to take a big step forward in military research, and lead our Great Xia country's military research career to the pinnacle."
Niu Weiguo came up and supported the teacher, even though he was not much younger than the teacher.
But this teacher once led him out of the maze he was in back then, pointed him in the right direction, and enabled him to make further progress in research. He has achieved what he has today thanks to the teacher's help, and he is so excited to see the teacher.
These are the die-hard fans of later generations.
"Thank you so much, thank you for helping me over the years."
Wang Jiaxiang was surrounded by a group of students, and this feeling seemed to bring him back to the past.
The eager anticipation in the students' eyes made him feel as if he had never left.
Suddenly I felt that I had done something wrong all these years. I shouldn't have given up on myself just because of some people who hurt me.
If it weren't for the girl Jiang Xiaoxiao, if it weren't for all the things that happened, he might not have been able to get over what happened back then.
Sometimes people can see others clearly, but cannot see themselves clearly.
Now he suddenly felt that life was nothing big, despite all the betrayals and hurts.
What else has not been experienced?
But we should take a long-term view, open our minds, and look at the bigger world and the outside world with a tolerant eye.
There are more people waiting for me, and more people love me more.
And there are still many things I can do.
He is only 60 years old now.
If he works harder, maybe he can work for another ten or twenty years.
We must train more talents for the country's medical and military research, and pass on all we have learned and used to our future generations.
This is what you should do, and you should not simply limit yourself to your own grudges and give up everything and yourself.
"Teacher, it's great to have you back."
All the students now had tears in their eyes, and many of them were crying softly.
For them, after so many years of looking forward to a teacher, their search finally paid off.
The teacher is still alive, and in their minds, all the teacher's knowledge and abilities are beyond their reach.
Now that the teacher is back, they can start their journey again, with someone to point the way, someone to show them the way.
"dad."
A name made everyone pause.
The scene suddenly became quiet and everyone turned around silently.
But no one spoke. Apart from Wang Jiaxiang, who else was most qualified to speak at this time?
"Dad! You're back, Dad, I'm Xiaoyu!"
"Dad, I'm Xiao Xiao."
The voices of a man and a woman made Wang Jiaxiang turn around silently.
Although the voices had become unfamiliar, he knew that the Xiaoyu and Xiaoxiao who were speaking were his once most beloved son and daughter.
When I turned around, I saw a man and a woman in the distance, with two large families following them.
They walked straight to Wang Jiaxiang, and then the leading man and woman knelt down in front of Wang Jiaxiang.
"Dad, please forgive us. Forgive our ignorance. At that time, we just thought that we should respond to the call of the country. We really didn't know that there would be such serious consequences. Dad, we were wrong."
"Dad! We were wrong, we were really wrong. We have been looking for you for so many years, but we could never find you. Now you are finally back. Please forgive us. We will definitely be filial to you in the future and make up for the mistakes we made to you."
The man was wearing a Zhongshan suit and the woman was wearing a Western suit. Both of them hugged Wang Jiaxiang's thighs and cried uncontrollably.
There was a group of people behind him. Although they did not kneel down, Wang Jiaxiang could see it.
It should be the children of their two families and the husband and wife.
Everyone looked at him at a loss, with earnest hope in their eyes.
Although there was still joy and happiness, Wang Jiaxiang felt no ripples in his heart. He could no longer feel the warmth, nor could he be moved.
It's because he hasn't been with me for too long, and I'm completely cold-hearted.
It's difficult for them too.
"Okay, get up. I forgive you."
I originally thought that I would have to keep crying and even make more efforts to win back the old man's heart.
Unexpectedly, the old man forgave them just after they met.
All those prepared moving confessions and those helpless expressions of helplessness were not performed in time.
The old man surrendered so easily.
The two men stood up with surprise in their eyes, and each of them took one of the old man's arms.
"Dad, you really forgive us. Don't worry, we will treat you well in the future and take good care of you to make up for the mistakes we made back then. Dad, I'll help you in. You've walked such a long way, you should have a good rest."
"Peihua, go buy some groceries and cook something delicious for Grandpa. Grandpa likes stewed pork ribs with yam the most."
"Dad, come in and I'll give you a massage. I know you've had back pain for years, and it must be even worse now. Don't worry, I'll accompany you to the hospital for a physical examination starting tomorrow, and we'll get any problems treated quickly."
Wang Jiaxiang silently pulled his hands away from his two children's hands.
"Go away, and don't come back again."
The tone was calm and peaceful, without any resentment or anger.
Lead the students into the house.
"Dad, what do you mean? Didn't you forgive us?"
Wang Xinyu and Wang Xinxiao were shocked.
It seemed that his father didn't want to have anything to do with them, which was completely different from what they had expected.
The old man is alone, shouldn’t he want to enjoy the happiness of family life the most right now? How could this happen?
"I have made it very clear just now. I forgive you, but forgiveness does not mean that everything is over. You have your own family now, live your life well, but don't bother me.
I have gotten used to living alone, without children or family. So, I will continue to live alone, without children or family. You and I have nothing to do with each other. Our relationship has long been gone and severed.
Have you ever heard of pouring out water and then taking it back? Even if you take it back, it won’t be as pure. Once it’s dirty, it’s dirty. There’s no going back!”
Wang Jiaxiang's decisive answer shocked the couple.
I went in with my students and old friend Lao Kang.
