Time is fast, and many things have happened in the past two years.

From a national perspective, 1978 was the year when reforms and liberalization began, and also the year when the family joint contract responsibility system began.

In 1979, the country and the United States resumed diplomatic relations, and the "Sino-Foreign Joint Venture Enterprise Law" came into effect this year, and foreign enterprises and companies began to enter China.

In 1980, the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone was formally established.

In terms of Tong Xuelu's life, she skipped a year in her freshman year, and now has half a semester about to graduate.

Although she has skipped a grade, she still stays in the original dormitory, and the people in the dormitory have also changed a lot.

First of all, Cui Rourou divorced. Her husband went to college in her hometown. The two got together and divorced. Last year, the two decided to divorce.

Under the introduction of her family, Xie Xiaoyan confirmed the relationship with a fellow college student; Lin Lanjuan was the only person in the dormitory who did not fall in love, but under the influence of Tong Xuelu, she was not as inferior as she used to be. Published his work in major newspapers.

Jiang Baihui and Liang Tianyi, the boy who gave her the "Anna Karenina" book, were targeted. I have to say one more thing here. Liang Tianyi is a talented student with extremely high physics.

He also skipped grades in his sophomore year, and his grades occupied the first place in the department all year round. He once wanted to worship Wen Rugui as a teacher, but Wen Rugui refused, but because of his talents, he often guided him privately.

Also because of this relationship, Tong Xuelu and Jiang Baihui have the best relationship.

At the moment, the two of them are eating together in a small restaurant outside the school.

Since the second half of last year, many business stalls have appeared on the streets, but there are still very few people who dare to open shops and do business.

"How is the relationship between you and Classmate Liang? Are you still ignoring him?" Tong Xuelu asked, holding a piece of chicken into his mouth.

Jiang Baihui took the chopsticks and poked the rice in the bowl: "He is going to go abroad. How do we continue to separate the two of us from another country?"

Because of Liang Tianyi's excellent grades, the school plans to recommend him to study abroad as soon as he graduates. Jiang Baihui doesn't care about Liang Tianyi's family difficulties, but when she thinks that the two will be separated in a foreign country for several years, she has no confidence at all.

So recently, she unilaterally had a cold war with Liang Tianyi, Liang Tianyi ran to the dormitory every day to wait for her, rain or shine, very patient.

Tong Xuelu glanced at her: "Why can't you continue? If you really like each other, you can always think of a way to be together."

Jiang Baihui suddenly raised his head, his big eyes full of expectation: "Good Xuelv, have you thought of a good way? Tell me."

Tong Xuelu put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and said, "It's not a solution. If you are sure of each other, you can get married before Classmate Liang goes abroad. Then you pass the application to see if you can apply to the country where he was studying. Level translator or trainee diplomat."

Liang Tianyi is very talented in physics. The country is in urgent need of talents in this area. In order to cultivate talents in this area, the country has promised to contract Liang Tianyi's expenses for going abroad.

Liang Tianyi is worrying about his feelings every day. If the school teacher knows about it, he will definitely find a way to solve his problems.

Jiang Baihui's grades are also excellent, and she is also an outstanding backbone of the student union. She has just applied for party membership this year. If they get married, in the future Jiang Baihui wants to apply to work in the same country, there is a high chance that she will succeed.

Jiang Baihui's eyes lit up for a while, and then he bit her lip again: "It feels weird to get married for this reason."

Tong Xuelu shrugged: "I have already told you the method. You should consider making decisions about other things, but even if you want to get married, you have to get the consent of both parents."

Jiang Baihui thought for a while, covering her face and said: "I still envy you the most. Professor Wen treats you so hard, and you are sure of each other."

Speaking of Wen Rugui, Tong Xuelu raised the corners of her mouth: "Classmate Liang is also very kind to you, and will do it and cherish it."

Jiang Baihui curled his lips: "Where is he so good? He is just a nerd."

"Duplicity."

"..."

The two returned to the dormitory after eating. From a distance, they saw Liang Tianyi standing under the dormitory under the big sun, his face flushed from the sun, but he stood motionless.

Tong Xuelu glanced at Jiang Baihui: "Your nerd is waiting for you downstairs again. Which boy has such patience?"

Jiang Baihui glared at her: "Does your Professor Wen not have such patience?"

Tong Xuelu curled her lips: "So I cherish the relationship between me and him. If you don't cherish it anymore, don't regret it when you look back."

Although Liang Tianyi's family situation is difficult, he is very good personally, and he was sure that he would be recommended to study abroad early. It can be said that he has a promising future. There are a lot of boys and girls around him.

Jiang Baihui is not an awkward person either: "I see, thank you for telling me this, I will have a chat with him now."

Tong Xuelu nodded: "That's right. It's time to make it clear. The Cold War can't solve the problem."

She doesn't like the cold war, which in her opinion is a kind of violence.

However, she and Wen Rugui have been together for almost three years and have never blushed, let alone the cold war.

When Liang Tianyi saw Jiang Baihui, he didn't know if he was shy or excited, and his face flushed red: "Huihui, are you back?"

Then he looked at Tong Xuelu: "Hello, classmate Tong."

Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "Hello, classmate Liang, you are still standing in the sun on such a hot day. If we come back later, can't you get a monkey ass?"

Liang Tianyi's face turned red when he heard this.

From the two points of liking physics and blushing, Liang Tianyi and Wen Rugui are very similar. No wonder the relationship between the two is also a teacher and friend, and they get along very well.

"Puff--"

Jiang Baihui looked at his red face and couldn't help but laugh.

"You guys have a chat, I'll go up first."

After speaking, she went straight away, she didn't wait for the unpleasant light bulb.

**

On the weekend, Tong Xuelu did not go home directly, but went to the shop he bought to inspect the decoration.

She wants to be the first group of people to eat crabs. The national policy is now becoming clearer and clearer, and more and more people will go to the sea to do business.

So last year, she used her private house money and borrowed money from her grandfather. Later, when Wen Rugui knew about it, she gave her all her salary and savings. She used the money to buy a shop and a three-story building. house.

The shop is just behind Beijing University. This street will develop into a famous snack street in the future, and her shop is in the best location.

If she didn't have enough money, she really wanted to buy ten and eight shops in one bite, and then she would make a lot of money by renting out as a rent collector.

But don't worry, she plans to open a hot pot restaurant here first. Hot pot doesn't need any skills, so she can hire a few reliable people to help her take care of it.

Her main energy will be on the restaurant side.

The shops on Jingda’s side have almost been renovated, and they will be completed in two days. Tong Xuelu took a look around and pointed out the unsatisfactory points.

Then she went to the restaurant again.

The amount of renovation of the restaurant is relatively large, and she wants to turn it into a high-end restaurant. With the decoration style she proposed, the master who helps with the construction and decoration is unheard of, so the speed is not fast.

Fortunately, she paid a lot of money, so the decorator was willing to help her.

As soon as he returned home from the restaurant, the moon cake brought its daughter bean sprouts and the old hen Xiao Liu to usher.

The mooncake has now grown into a big dog. Watching tigers and tigers, they usually dare not let them go out without anyone holding them, for fear that they will scare passers-by.

Although the bean sprout is the daughter of moon cakes, it looks much smaller and exquisite. It should have inherited the genes of its mother, and the bean sprouts are very beautiful.

Although the bean sprouts are raised in the Wei family, the Xiao family's food is better, so they often come by themselves.

As for Xiaoliu, he is more than five years old this year. A chicken can live for more than ten years without getting sick, so Xiaoliu is still a mature man.

In the beginning, Xiao Liu was raised to let it lay eggs, but after raising it with affection, he was reluctant to kill it.

Xiao Liu has also become a good one. In addition to laying eggs, he can also help look after the nursing home, and become friends with mooncakes.

Tong Xuelu walked under the faucet with sweat, turned on the faucet and washed his face. Cool water poured on his face to let the temperature on his face drop.

She exhaled with joy. Turning around, she was about to bathe the mooncakes and bean sprouts, when she saw Uncle Zong appeared at the small door.

"Commander, Xuelu is back." After he finished speaking, he looked back at Tong Xuelu, "I said that the mooncakes, bean sprouts, and Xiaoliu didn't even call. It must be the family member who came back."

Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "Yeah, I will be back this weekend, but why didn't Zong Shu and Grandpa Wen go to the park to exercise today?"

In the first two years, she was worried that Mr. Wen had signs of Alzheimer's disease, so she made a series of plans for him to strengthen his body.

At first, Mr. Wen still didn't want to move, but later realized the fun, and she didn't need to stare at each day that she would go to the park with Uncle Zong to exercise.

In the past two years, the policy has been improved. In the morning and evening, many elderly people will exercise in the park in the morning and evening. Talking and chatting with their peers is very helpful to Mr. Wen's body.

At least in the past two years, his physical condition has not deteriorated, and his memory has improved compared to the previous two years.

Uncle Zong frowned and said, "If you are fine, come here, the commander has something to tell you."

Looking at Uncle Zong’s expression, Tong Xuelu gave a "thump" in his heart, and hurriedly followed up and said: "Uncle Zong, could it be Grandpa Wen, what's wrong with him?"

Uncle Zong was taken aback, and quickly waved his hand: "No, no, the commander wants to tell you about the Cheng family and the historian."

It turned out to be the family to death.

Tong Xuelu breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Shi Junmin was shot, Shijia is no longer as before.

Brother Shi and Junjun Shi hadn't done anything in the past two years, and they sat at home every day waiting for Cheng Xiuyun and Shi Xiuneng to feed them, like giant infants.

Cheng Xiuyun was particularly dissatisfied. Even if he raised the two fathers and sons, he still had to be an old mother to serve them. The news came back that the two families had a small quarrel for three days and a big quarrel for five days, and the relationship was very poor.

As for supporting the two families, it is not an alliance anymore, so even if they have hatred in their hearts, they can't afford to throw any splashes.

But seeing Uncle Zong’s expression so serious, I don’t know what program Yun is making.

When I walked into the living room, I saw Mr. Wen sitting on the Grand Master's chair with the words "I'm very angry" written on his face.

Tong Xuelu poured a glass of water and brought it to him: "Grandpa Wen, it's not worth it to ruin your body for that kind of popularity. Drink some water and don't be angry."

"It's so hot outside, don't worry about pouring me water, and quickly pour yourself a glass."

Grandpa Wen was happy when he saw her. Now, watching her treat herself as a child, how could she be sullen.

Tong Xuelu smiled and nodded, and poured himself and Uncle Zong a cup of scented tea made with osmanthus, cassia and wolfberry: "Grandpa Wen, what happened?"

Mr. Wen put the water glass on the table and snorted, "That woman is back to Beijing."

Tong Xuelu was startled: "When did it happen?"

Mr. Wen: "Yesterday, their family moved back to Beijing. It looks like they are planning to come back to Beijing to do business."

Tong Xuelu: "Shi Xiuneng quit his job? And his second cousin and Shi Junjun, have they also returned to Beijing?"

Old man Wen frowned: "Shi Xiuneng was persuaded by his unit to leave. The factory's efficiency was not good, and his family background was the worst. Naturally, he was the first to be persuaded. As for the two fathers and sons, they did not come with them temporarily , They fell out."

If it sounds like a fallout, it's actually a big fight.

Shi Xiu-neng was persuaded by the unit and received a compensation, but without a job, all the burden of the family fell on Cheng Xiuyun alone.

Because of too much pressure, Cheng Xiuyun frequently made mistakes in his work, and was eventually fired by the unit.

The two families were sitting in the air. Shi Junjun knew that Shi Xiuneng had the compensation money in his hand, so he wanted him to take the money out, and they would do business together. Cheng Xiuyun naturally refused.

Shi Junjun has been completely abandoned in the past two years. He doesn't look for a job. He specializes in scheming. The so-called business is a lie. He just wants to take money to gamble.

So there was a quarrel. I heard that Shi Xiu-neng was discounted by one hand. Shi Junjun was too ruthless. Shi Xiu-neng eventually divided half of the compensation money to him, and then the two went separate ways.

"Grandpa Wen doesn't need to worry too much. Given the conditions of their historians and the Cheng family, they can't make any waves."

Tong Xuelu was not surprised that Cheng Xiuyun would come to Beijing, because in the book it was she who returned to Beijing to drive Wen Rugui into a dead end.

But because she is not the protagonist in the book, she doesn't even count as a supporting role, so she doesn't know what business she will do after returning to Beijing, and what will happen later.

Old man Wen nodded: "I'm not afraid of them making trouble, I'm worried that the woman will find home."

At that time, Wen Rugui was only four or five years old, and she was able to play such a poisonous hand. Now that the Shijia and Cheng Family are trampled in the mud, if she wants to turn over, she is most likely to find Wen Rugui.

He is not sure if Wen Rugui thinks of his childhood, will cause serious influence and stimulation to him.

Tong Xuelu thought for a while and said, "Grandpa Wen, I think we should tell Rugui about this matter, at least let him take precautions."

In the past two years, she has been closely monitoring Wen Rugui's situation. Fortunately, the little friend Wen Rugui dreamed about has not appeared for a long time.

Without Cheng Xiuyun, she felt that he would be able to maintain such a good condition in the future, but Cheng Xiuyun was like a time bomb, and she didn't know when it would explode.

Old man Wen nodded: "You made sense. When you turn back, you make a call and tell him that the two of you are not too young anymore. When you turn around, you have to settle the marriage quickly. If you have a small family, even if that woman comes back and finds her home. , It won't affect him either."

Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "I know, I will get married when I graduate this year."

Speaking of this topic, Old Man Wen couldn't help getting excited.

It's good to get married. Go back and give him some great-grandchildren/daughters. From now on, he will take great-grandchildren/daughters at home.

Tong Xuelu didn't know what Old Man Wen thought, otherwise she could not help but pour cold water.

Family planning will be implemented in a few years. At that time, she can only give birth to one regardless of whether she wants to give birth or not, but she does not want to have more births.

The phone was already installed at home, and Tong Xuelu went back to call Wen Rugui next door.

Although the two have been together for almost three years, they are still as simple as they were before, and they still blush and heartbeat when they receive a call from her.

"Are you calling me at home?"

Tong Xuelu pretended to complain: "Well, you haven't returned for a month. When can you take a holiday?"

Wen Rugui: "I'm not sure about this..."

Before he finished speaking, I heard Tong Xuelu say: "Bai Hui recently had a cold war with Liang Tianyi. Do you know why?"

"why?"

"Because Liang Tianyi is being recommended to study abroad, she feels that it is not good for the two to live in the two countries. Although we are in the same city, it is so difficult to meet. Do you think I should also have a cold war with you?"

Wen Rugui gave a "thump" in his heart, and the phone in his hand almost fell to the ground in fright: "Sorry Xuelu, I will definitely find a way to ask for leave and go back to accompany you." Don't cold war with me.

The two have never been in conflict or awkwardness together, but just thinking about it makes him feel uncomfortable.

Tong Xuelu's red lips hooked slightly: "Then you coax me, if you coax me, I won't have a cold war with you."

Wen Rugui looked around for a while, and made sure no one lowered his voice: "Xuelu, don't be angry with me, I like you the most."

After speaking, his face turned red into cooked shrimp, and an egg on it would be scalded in minutes.

Tong Xuelu didn't feel sweet when he heard the words, but couldn't help but laughed: "How can you turn around and you will get such a sentence, no, think about it again."

To let Wen Rugui solve a physical problem, he never frowned, but he could hear sweet words from him, which really gave him the urge to grab his hair.

After thinking about it for a while, he suffocated a sentence: "Baby, you behave, my brother will go back and let you... do whatever you want."

Tong Xuelu laughed: "Do whatever you want? Brother, you are good or bad, if I want you to beg for mercy under me?"

Gee, the conversation between the two is so good for children.

Wen Rugui's face blushed almost bloody: "Well, as long as you are happy, I am willing to be under you... beg for mercy."

As soon as the voice landed, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Zhou Yan standing behind him with a face struck by lightning.

Zhou Yan: "..."

Wen Rugui: "..."

The air was quiet for a few seconds, and the scene was once embarrassing.

Zhou Yan lowered his voice and said, "It's really a human being to look good. I usually look at you with an honest appearance, but I didn't expect it to be so wild." And also very sullen.

"..." Wen Rugui wished to dig a hole to bury himself, "What can you do with me?"

"The dean wants you to go there."

Wen Rugui only then said to Tong Xuelu on the other end of the phone: "I have something to do. I'll call you later."

Tong Xuelu wanted to improve the atmosphere before mentioning Cheng Xiuyun to him, but he didn't want to get busy again without speaking.

But work is important, and she hung up after answering.

Wen Rugui came to the dean's office.

Dean Zhuang immediately smiled when he saw him: "Rugui, do you know what I'm going to do with you?"

Wen Rugui shook his head: "I don't know."

Dean Zhuang smiled and said: "Congratulations, based on your outstanding performance over the years, the base has decided to let you succeed Director Jiao as the second director of the Institute of Mechanics."

Wen Rugui did not appear ecstatic when he heard this, but frowned and said, "Where is Director Jiao?"

Dean Zhuang came over and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry about that. Director Jiao has not been fired, he has also been promoted. The specific position has not yet been determined, but he recommends you to be the next director. Are you okay?"

Hearing that his teacher was not dismissed, Wen Rugui was relieved: "I follow the organization's arrangements."

Dean Zhuang smiled and said: "Good, continue to perform well in the future, and strive to make greater contributions to the country."

Although Wen Rugui has never studied abroad, his talent in physics surpasses that of many people. What's more rare is that he is unconventional, innovative and active in thinking. No wonder Jiao Bogan is such a precious student.

In the last full-range test of the missile, everything was prepared for the test, but the expected range was not reached. Wen Rugui proposed a new idea to remove a part of the fuel propellant in order to reduce the missile's take-off weight.

Jiao Bogan listened to his opinion, and later the experiment was successful.

It is their luck that the base has such talents.

After coming out of the dean's office, people who got the news congratulated Wen Rugui.

The 28-year-old director, this height is really unattainable.

Zhou Yan and Huang Qimin both ate lemons, but they were more happy for him.

Wen Rugui did not tell Tong Xuelu the news when he called back because he was going to Beijing University to give a final speech on Monday.

After being promoted to the director, the task became heavier, and there was no time to give a speech later.

Tong Xuelu didn't mention Cheng Xiuyun when he heard that he was going to school, thinking about telling him in person.

It's Monday.

After Wen Rugui came to Beijing University, he talked to the department leader about his promotion and that he could no longer serve as a guest professor in the future.

Department leaders congratulated him one after another, and felt very sorry.

They know very well that the reason why Wen Rugui has not been afraid of hard work over the past two years to be a guest professor is largely because of his fiancée.

Where are they going to find such an excellent visiting professor in the future?

Tong Xuelu didn't attend Wen Rugui's last speech. She had a class to attend, but she didn't understand it.

After Wen Rugui gave his speech, he also bid a final farewell to the students.

The students were very reluctant, and some couldn't help crying.

Everyone gathered around him and asked a lot of questions, and it was not until half an hour later that everyone had other courses.

Wen Rugui was packing up his things and was about to leave. At this moment, a slender figure walked towards him and said in a charming voice——

"Professor Wen, will you really not come to give us a speech in the future?"

Wen Rugui looked up and faced a beautiful young face.
