The latest chapter of Rebirth in the Barracks: Ace Military Marriage is updated the fastest!
Commander-in-Chief Xia once told Ye Jian that if there was anything, he must tell him in time and must not conceal it or make decisions or actions on his own, because the matter of Sun Xueqing was not just Ye Jian's matter, and the elimination of family feuds involved a huge network of relationships. If Ye Jian was not careful, he would probably get caught in his own trap.
Ye Jian forwarded all the text messages from the village chief Zhang Defu to Commander-in-Chief Xia's personal mobile phone. While waiting for Commander-in-Chief Xia's reply, Ye Jian tried to call home, thinking that there was a high possibility that no one would answer the phone.
She didn't hold out hope of answering the call until she heard the old man's voice. Ye Jian jumped up from her seat and asked in great surprise, "Grandpa, why are you back home?"
The old man had been in the laboratory of the Institute of Aerospace for more than half a year. Ye Jian called back several times but no one answered. Even Uncle Fu, who was taking care of the old man, was not at home. He also went to the Institute of Aerospace to prepare three meals a day for the old man, which were then delivered to the laboratory by a special person.
The old man, who had only been home for less than half a month, laughed when he heard Ye Jian's voice. "It's been a while since I came home. My grandson has called home a lot. Grandpa is anxious when he comes back, and he's afraid that he has something urgent to tell us. Is it a holiday? When do you plan to go home? Give grandpa a call before you go home, and I'll send a car to pick you up."
The old man missed Ye Jian very much. He was his lost and regained blood relative. The total time they had lived together since he returned home was less than a month. Although the old man supported Ye Jian's work, it did not mean that he could endure not seeing Ye Jian for a long time.
When people get old, the only thing they miss is their children and grandchildren.
When Ye Jian heard the old man asking her when she would go home, she felt so guilty that her lips trembled and she didn't know how to tell the old man.
Her pause did not require much explanation; for the old man, silence was already an answer.
Although the open-minded old man was disappointed, he expressed his absolute support for his granddaughter's work. Instead, he smiled and tried to comfort Ye Jian, "Are you feeling guilty about having to go out again and not being able to come back to accompany your grandfather?"
"Hahaha, grandpa's dear grandson, you are still young. Young people should travel far and wide to conquer the world. This is what your great-grandfather and great-grandmother taught me. Grandpa went to study in the West at the age of fourteen and was away from home for fourteen years before returning to his hometown. Now is the best time for you to study and strive hard. Learn more, see more, put your knowledge into practice, and achieve success. Grandpa will be waiting for you at home and will be very happy."
The old man has long been accustomed to living alone. When he was young, he did not spend much time with Mr. Fu as he grew up. Later, when Mr. Fu grew up, he did not have time to accompany the old man. Now that his granddaughter has come back, she has no time to accompany him. These three generations are very accustomed to living alone.
Ye Jian regretted not calling home more often. If she had known that her grandfather would come back, she would have returned to Beijing to accompany the old man for a few days before going to Xinjiang for training...
Unfortunately, there is no way to regret. The itinerary has been set and the mission cannot be changed. The comrades over there are waiting for her to go there, so she... has to go.
"I'm sorry, Grandpa, I can't go back to Beijing to be with you again. I will definitely come back to be with you during the seven days of National Day." Ye Jian's voice was as low as a mosquito's whimper, and she lowered her head out of guilt.
"It's July now, and the National Day is not far away. Grandpa is waiting for you to come back home. There are things you need to do that are far more meaningful than going home to accompany grandpa. There is no home without a country, and grandpa understands."
The old man who has devoted his entire life to the development of the motherland's aerospace industry can understand this very well, because he himself is like that, and even the father Fu he trained is like that, sacrificing his own family for the sake of the public.
