Chapter 1362 From Now on, You Finally Have a Home
The Xu Fu has left the Earth-Moon system, and with the expectations of hundreds of millions of Chinese people, it is heading for the desert tens of millions of kilometers away.
Just when the field of vision of the global aerospace industry was taken away by this majestic starship, a major event happened in the physics world.
With the successful convening of the IMCRC committee meeting and the election of the new chairman, Lu Zhou, the first chairman of the IMCRC, also stood on the podium in the conference hall as scheduled, facing the committee representatives from various countries, director members and well-known physics circles. Daniel, read the resignation speech.
In his speech, Lu Zhou expressed an optimistic vision for the future of physics, believing that this discipline will surely usher in unprecedented prosperity in the next hundred years, and radiate this prosperity to every corner of human society.
However, this optimism did not dilute the regret and reluctance that permeated the venue.
Although Lu Zhou expressed his opinion more than once before that he would only serve as the chairman of the board for one term, when the moment of his resignation really came, people still couldn't help but fell into the memories of the past, and couldn't help but think about it in their minds. Flashed through the incredible miracles he once led IMCRC to create one after another.
Even Professor Whittle, who had been against him throughout his tenure, couldn't help but feel sad for his departure in his heart.
Maybe that's just how people are.
Only when you lose, will you remember the beauty of having it.
At this moment, Professor Whittle finally understood what an old friend said, what a happy thing it is to have a wise leader leading the way.
For the rest of the way, they had to go alone.
Almost everyone listened to his speech with a heavy heart, and gave solemn and solemn applause at the end.
No joy could be heard in the applause, but the heavy one didn't look like resignation, more like the funeral of some important person.
"...Please don't show such an expression, you will embarrass me."
Looking at the eyes of the audience dumbfounded, Lu Zhou felt that if he allowed this emotion to continue, it might not be a good thing for his successor Senior Brother Luo.
So he coughed lightly, made a brief summary and conclusion of his speech in two sentences, then gave the microphone to Senior Brother Luo, and walked off the stage quickly.
Regardless of how Alexander Comrade Luo Wenxuan was when he took the microphone and stood on the stage, the moment he stepped off the stage, Lu Zhou really felt indescribably relaxed.
Although there are still many burdens on his shoulders, at least the heaviest one has come to an end.
With the IMCRC's work finally completed the final handover, taking advantage of the rare leisure time when the Xu Fu is still on its way to Mars, Lu Zhou can finally spare time to deal with some personal issues .
After leaving Shanghai, Lu Zhou did not return to Jinling, but first took Chen Yushan to his hometown Jiangling, and told his parents about their decision.
To Lu Zhou's surprise, he originally thought that after hearing the news, even if his father and mother would not be surprised, at least they would express their surprise.
However, the reality was completely opposite to what he had expected. Not only did his father and mother not feel any surprise, they even showed some emotion on their faces.
Reading the doubt in her son's eyes, Fang Mei sighed softly.
"Actually, your father and I have noticed it a long time ago. Hey... it's just that the girl is suffering." She looked at the shy Chen Yushan, smiled kindly and continued, "Shanshan Ah, when our family Lu Zhou was a child, he was quite upright, thinking about problems and doing things straight, and sometimes his words were not very nice, but I can assure you that his heart is still very kind. In the future, I'm counting on you."
Upon hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou immediately became unhappy.
"Mom, what are you talking about, honesty is honesty, why do I speak badly?"
People who like to listen to his speech can queue up from the mathematics department of Jinling University to the space launch center. This kind of statement has no scientific basis at all.
Looking at her aunt with a kind smile on her face, Chen Yushan blushed and said, "It's okay... Although he is indeed a bit too straightforward sometimes, I still like him for that."
Lu Zhou: "...?"
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I understand, you don't need to explain to me," Fang Mei said with a smile, "Your uncle and I also came from that age."
This time it was Lao Lu's turn to be unhappy, and he retorted.
"What do you mean I came from that age, can I be the same as this kid? I was—"
"Okay, okay, you are a famous handsome young man in a radius of ten miles... If you have this spare time, go to the vegetable market and buy a fish for your son and daughter-in-law. Speaking of which, you have a drink tonight, remember to come back I will buy another two catties of pig’s trotters and ears, and I will make some appetizers later.”
Upon hearing these words, Lao Lu was immediately bribed into silence, and cheerfully put on his shoes and went out to buy groceries.
Chen Yushan rolled her eyes, stood next to Fang Mei with a smile, and offered to propose.
"Auntie, let me help you."
"What do you want to do? If you want to learn to talk with me with both hands, it's fine. Your aunt can handle it alone." Seeing how virtuous her future daughter-in-law is, Fang Mei became more and more satisfied, and her eyes narrowed into a smile. .
"Mom, I'm here to help too."
Seeing that everyone had something to do, Lu Zhou felt ashamed to be alone, so he wanted to find something to do for himself, but when he opened his mouth just now, he was blocked by his old lady.
"What's the point of squeezing three people in such a small space? Don't make trouble, just wait in the living room to eat!"
Looking at Lu Zhou who was deflated in front of his mother, Chen Yushan couldn't help but feel a little funny, so she secretly stuck out her tongue and made a face at him, then followed Fang Mei triumphantly, and went into the kitchen...
...
That night, Lu Zhou's wife, Fang Mei, cooked a whole table of good dishes. The whole family sat together and ate together. The atmosphere was so lively that it was like Chinese New Year.
It was rare to drink without being run over by his wife, Lao Lu took out the good wine he had treasured for a long time, and placed it generously on the table.
Usually, he was only willing to sip a small cup at a time, but this time it seemed like he was going all out, and he took his son to drink one cup after another.
It was precisely because of this that he, who had not been drunk for many years, was drunk for a rare time today.
"...When you won the Fields Medal, your father and I were not drunk, and we were not drunk when we won the Nobel Prize. Today, it seems that you can't escape," the old man held the wine glass in his hand. Lu Chang sighed and said, "Your father is getting old."
"You're not yet sixty, why are you old?"
"It's not too young to be over fifty... I think you were only this big at the beginning, and your legs couldn't reach the floor when you sat on a stool. Now you are taller than me." Both eyes stared at the ceiling, as if thinking of something funny As if something happened, Lao Lu suddenly smirked, and said in a rambling manner, "It was interesting back then, I still remember when I secretly fed you a mouthful of white meat while your mother was not paying attention, and then watched you go around He turned around and ran to the ground and played a drunken fist."
Lu Zhou: "..."
Is this what people do?
If the father didn't say it, he wouldn't even know that he had such a dark history when he was a child.
"puff……"
She didn't expect her boyfriend to have such a cute...cute past. Chen Yushan's shoulders shook violently, probably because she had a stomachache from holding back her laughter, so she pretended to cough and buried her face under the table.
Fang Mei thought she was choking, so she patted her on the back with concern, and brought her a cup of hot water from the side.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
"No... I'm fine, Auntie."
"He said it's okay, what a cough it looks like."
After drinking a glass of wine, Lu Bangguo stretched his hand towards his flagon, but he didn't touch the flagon, but he touched the dish. If it wasn't for Lu Zhou who was sitting next to him, he almost filled himself with the appetizers as wine up.
Snatching the plate from his father, Lu Zhou said with a sigh.
"Dad, you drank too much, you'd better take it easy."
"Come on, it's only a few cups."
"...I counted correctly, it should be the seventeenth cup."
"What? It's only seven cups. It doesn't add up to two catties. It's too early to get your father drunk... But how many cups have you drank and you can still count so clearly, you are worthy of mathematics."
Lu Zhou smiled helplessly and didn't say anything.
It's not that he's bragging, although he doesn't have a special hobby for alcohol, but he has always been good at drinking.
On the one hand, it is naturally genetic, and on the other hand, it is probably because the system has helped him strengthen his metabolic function. Sometimes if he drank too much, he would indeed feel dizzy like a normal person, but as long as he went to the toilet to fill up some water, he would basically be the same as a normal person.
"Do you know what your dad is happiest about?"
Taking the kettle and filling Dad's cup with a cup of warm water, Lu Zhou replied.
"...I finally fulfilled your old man's wish and came back with a daughter-in-law?"
"You're wrong, son," Lao Lu shook his head, pointed at his son with that drunken snort, forced a serious expression on his face, and continued, "Whether you have a wife or not is secondary."
"Oh," Lu Zhou said casually, "Then what is important."
"The important thing is... After floating outside for so many years, you finally have a home."
Is there any difference between the two?
After clinking glasses with his father, looking at the old man who happily took a sip of the boiled water, Lu Zhou took a sip of the wine in the glass silently.
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't want to understand the reason behind it.
Fortunately, I didn't even think about it.
