The scene was a little quiet for a while. The old man and the young man were also immersed in their own worlds. I don’t know how long it took. Mr. Lin came back to his senses first. He looked at Yu Fan who was thinking. He chuckled and said, "I'm with you today." What this little guy said is more than what an old man like me has said in recent years. Haha. Even if it is a spiritual inheritance for us old guys to your younger generation, it also represents a blessing to your generation. An expectation." After saying that, the old man sighed slightly. At this time, Yu Fan also came back to his senses and looked at the old man blankly.
Hehehe smiled. Mr. Lin looked at Yu Fan seriously and said: "First of all, I hope that people of your generation can keep in mind those national heroes who shed blood and sacrifice for our nation and people. Those who have fought for national independence in the past hundred years The pioneers who have struggled all their lives. They are precious treasures of our national spirit. We must remember that everything we have today was obtained by them with their youth and blood. Secondly, I also hope that your generation can Cherish this hard-won period of peace and development that our ancestors bought with their lives. Our country is one of the few countries in the world that has complete independence and sovereignty and is not affected by any force. This was bought with the lives of countless people. .Although there are many difficulties in this process and we have paid a heavy price for it, it has also laid a solid foundation for the rejuvenation of our country and nation. As for how long the road to rejuvenation of our nation will take? What about our country? If we can be ranked among the world's powerful countries, it will depend on the efforts of the younger generation."
The old man said these words very seriously. And Yu Fan knew that Mr. Lin loved Wujiwu just like Old Man Dai. At this moment, he also regarded himself as a junior before teaching. For their sentiments, Yu Fan felt grateful in his heart. Nothing can express my feelings.
After Mr. Lin said these words, he seemed to be very tired. The sharp ups and downs in his mood made the old man's body unable to bear it. Yu Fan came over anxiously. The old man shook his hand and said with a forced smile: " It’s nothing. That’s what happens when people get old. Even thinking about the past will make you feel tired. Alas, it’s no longer enough to be dissatisfied. I won’t be like that old man Dai who pretends to be young even though he’s a lot older. .hehe."
After taking a sip of water, Mr. Lin's energy improved a little. He looked at Yu Fan with a smile and said, "Okay, no more talking. If you talk too much, you young people will think that I am a long-winded old guy. There is nothing good for you to come today. I'm here to entertain you. Just have a meal with me, an old man." After saying that, he slowly stood up.
Yu Fan hurriedly went over to help Mr. Lin. He smiled and said: "How could it be? I have benefited a lot from being able to listen to the teachings of the old leader. These things cannot be learned in books. No matter it is for us as human beings Or being an official has great benefits. It also made me understand a lot of truths."
Mr. Lin smiled and glanced at Yu Fan. He nodded and said: "Yes. If you think so, it means that I have not wasted all my efforts. Alas, there are not many people who think like you now. Their desire for power has made them lost. .But they didn’t expect that the power they had was given to them by the party and the people. Those who sacrifice the good for the weak only know how to work hard. In the end, I’m afraid it’s all in vain. Huh.” The old man’s words seemed to have something to say. But the old man seemed to have something to say. He obviously didn't want to say anything more. Yu Fan didn't dare to ask casual questions.
Although Yu Fan was left to eat, it was still very simple, four dishes and one soup. There was no change due to Yu Fan's arrival. One shredded pork with green pepper, one stir-fried shrimp with celery, one green vegetable and one winter melon soup. Simple. Yu Fan couldn't help but feel filled with emotion. Although Dapu County is a poor county, the dishes served every time were much better than this. Not to mention the meals that Yu Fan attended outside. The price of a glass of wine was only It's comparable to this whole table of dishes.
Mr. Lin's appetite is not very good. He only ate a small bowl of rice, but he asked Yu Fan to eat more food. He also smiled and told him not to waste it. Originally, Yu Fan and Mr. Lin were eating, but they were so worried. He was a little nervous. When he saw that Mr. Lin had put down his chopsticks, he had no intention of eating anything. But a small detail changed his mind. Just when Mr. Lin ate all the rice in his bowl . Habitually picked up the two grains of rice that fell on the table and put them into his mouth. The whole action was skillful and very natural. Apparently this was a habit that Mr. Lin had developed.
This discovery moved Yu Fan for a moment, and he immediately began to devour it. He swept away all the dishes on the table, not daring to waste any of them. This was also the most serious meal Yu Fan had ever eaten. Mr. Lin obviously I was very satisfied with his style of not wasting food. I kept looking at him with a smile.
After finishing the meal, Mr. Lin seemed a little tired. Long Xingguo came over again to let Mr. Lin rest. Yu Fan also understood that it was time to leave. Mr. Lin did not ask Yu Fan to leave. I tried too much to persuade him to stay. I just smiled and asked him to go to Yunjing’s house if he had time. The car back was arranged by Mr. Lin. This time, Secretary Long did not go with him. He sat in the car. Fan also fell into thinking. Today's events shocked him too much.
The turbulent era. The indomitable soul of the nation. Those martyrs who lay underground for the country and the nation. Those heroes who fought for the unity of the country and the nation but were always ambivalent because of their different ideologies. Yu Fan did not Having experienced those years of burning passion, he had no empathy for these things. However, the passionate things flowing in his body seemed to penetrate the constraints of time and space and stirred in his heart.
For Yu Fan, a story that he has never experienced may not change anything. All he has is the excitement in his heart. But the little plot that happened during the meal was something he experienced personally. It was a real thing for him. Yu Fan never expected that Mr. Lin would still maintain such a style with his current identity and status. And Yu Fan had only seen these scenes on TV.
Where has the spirit of hard work and simplicity left by the older generation gone now? Is our era making progress? Or is our spiritual world regressing? Why can our current officials be so lazy when faced with the big fish and meat on the table? Go use your chopsticks. Why can they drink wine without changing their expressions when faced with good wine costing tens of thousands of dollars? Are we corrupt? Or are we too kind?
Yu Fan was a little confused about this. But he seemed to understand something. Suddenly he understood that he came here today. The biggest gain was not meeting Mr. Lin and chatting with him, nor was Mr. Lin treating himself to food. After a meal, he felt that his spiritual world was suddenly cleansed. The whole world seemed to be clean and transparent. This cleansing would not change his future, but it made him see clearly. own heart.
The car slowly drove towards the gate of the military area rest house. Yu Fan also breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling here was too depressing for him. Being next to Mr. Lin, his sensing ability seemed to be suppressed by a mountain. Generally speaking, the stronger the sensing force, the stronger the rebounding force. And this kind of power is like having an aura. It protects everyone around Mr. Lin from being sensed by Yu Fan. And this is the most depressing thing for Yu Fan. He was used to being able to sense other people's hearts. Suddenly there was a place where he couldn't grasp anything. This made him feel a little overwhelmed and even a little scared.
Along the way, Yu Fan's thoughts were very confused. He was thinking about his past actions and also confused about the future. But when he got home, when he saw Ruan Mingyan and Xu Hong, all the confusion disappeared. Yes. Reminiscing about the past and paying homage to our ancestors only allow people of our generation to see the direction ahead more clearly. But we have to walk the road ourselves.
Waiting for Yu Fan to come back seemed to be the two women's job now. As soon as Yu Fan walked in, the two of them ran to him excitedly. Ruan Mingyan was even more excited to ask questions about him going to see Mr. Lin this time. Cheng Cheng looked very interested. Xu Hong also looked at him with gentle eyes. For her, seeing Yu Fan come back was the happiest thing.
Sitting on the sofa with his arms around the two girls, Yu Fan felt warm in his heart. But he didn't say anything. He just looked at the two of them with a smile. This made Ruan Mingyan feel strange. She couldn't help but asked cautiously: "What happened? Is there something bad?" Yu Fan smiled and shook his head. He really didn't know how to talk about this matter.
Ruan Mingyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it. For her, if nothing bad happened, it was a good thing. She hit Yu Fan lightly. She looked at him and said coquettishly: "Then why don't you say anything? You are so mysterious. I wonder if we have been waiting for you for a long time. You are really deliberately making us worry about you." Yu Fan said with an embarrassed smile.
At this time, the phone rang. Yu Fan had kept his phone off because of the matter of meeting Mr. Lin. He didn't turn it on until he came back. When he took it out, he saw that it was Liu Bing calling. As soon as Liu Bing was connected, he Bing smiled over there and said, "Brother Yu, why didn't you give me a call when you came back? Have you forgotten me?"
"No way. Brother Liu. The main reason I came back this time is to meet an elder. So my phone has been turned off. I'm really embarrassed." Yu Fan said with a busy smile. Liu Bing also laughed when he heard it. Yesterday Yu Fan went to see him He already knew about Secretary Yu of the Provincial Committee. After hearing what Yu Fan said, he thought that the elder Yu Fan wanted to meet was Yu Zhengguo.
"You guy, it wasn't Vice President Peng who called me. I didn't know you were back." Liu Bing said with a smile, but he also coughed twice in embarrassment. "Brother, the loan thing is really not good. I'm sorry. There's nothing Lao Peng can do. Someone is suppressing him. Alas, I won't be able to explain this for a while. How about we meet today and talk about it." So that's it. Yu Fan also sighed inwardly.
