Ye Chien's reaction was a huge blow to Li Jinnian. He immediately woke up from his excitement and stopped talking.
He was too anxious just now. He was so anxious that he did not have the evidence to prove that Ye Chien was his uncle's daughter. However, he did not regret it.
His grandfather did not have much time left.
"The light of the mulberry elm does not shine far. I hope the morning sun shines brightly."
This was the old man's helplessness. It was also a knot in his heart that he could not let go of for the rest of his life. The old man often said that the ancestors of the Fu family had enjoyed too much and had used up all the good fortune of their descendants. In the end, only one son and one daughter grew up.
The first son was his uncle. He only returned to his grandfather's side when he was ten years old.
The second daughter was his mother. She was frail and sickly. She married into the Li family less than ten years ago and left him sick when he was eight years old. Fortunately, he had the support of his grandmother. His grandmother, who had lived a rough life, had someone to rely on before she died.
Li Jinnian thought about his elderly grandfather and his cousin who he had found. He walked out of the hospital and drove straight to his grandfather's house.
Li Jinnian's grandfather was one of the leaders in the development of space, satellites, and missiles. He had laid the foundation for China's "strategic missile" and led China's national defense technology industry on the right track. Now, he was respectfully called "Old Master Fu."
.
There was a book in the book, "The scholar is old, so he is called Master." After thousands of years, the meaning of the word "Master" remained unchanged. It represented strength of character, spirit, heritage, and ideology.
Old Master Fu's spirit was not what it used to be. He had suffered too much when he was young. Later, he worked so hard for China's space, satellites, and missiles research that his hair turned white before he was fifty years old.
Although he had retired, there were still many guests at his house. They were all scientists in China's space, satellites, and missiles research.
Li Jinnian drove over. The housekeeper who was in charge of taking care of Old Master Fu's daily life said softly, "There are two guests from the Aerospace Department who are discussing problems with Old Master Fu in the study. I'm afraid you will have to wait for a while."
"Okay, there is no need to disturb Old Master." Li Jinnian closed the door softly and changed into home shoes.
The country took very good care of retired scientists. Their food, clothing, housing, and transportation were all top-notch.
Old Master Fu liked ancient architecture, so the place where he lived was near a mountain and a river. His furniture and flooring were all made of solid wood, and the interior was decorated in Han style. Walking in was like traveling to another time and space, and when sitting by the window, one could hear the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.
After entering the house, Li Jinnian pushed open the wooden sliding door and found a few old photo albums in a row of bookshelves. He sat cross-legged on a thin cushion and slowly flipped through the albums.
The album recorded the lives of Old Master Fu and Old Madam Fu, as well as the changes in the Fu family's wealth.
Old Master Fu and Old Madam Fu were born in a wealthy family. Both of them were smart and studious. They studied abroad and graduated from MIT and became lovers.
Before they were twenty-eight years old, they lived a rich life. From twenty-eight to thirty-five years old, they faced many difficulties. But no matter how difficult their life was, Old Madam Fu insisted on taking a family photo every year.
The family photo started with one child, then slowly increased to two children, then to three children, then to four children … Li Jinnian's thin lips gradually tightened because he knew that when he flipped to the next page, the four children would be reduced one by one until … only his maternal grandfather and his pregnant grandmother were left.
Three uncles and one aunt, who he did not have the chance to meet, died one by one because they were homeless and had no money to treat their serious illnesses.
