Qiao Jiayue made dumplings in addition to dumplings, which were filled with cabbage and pork, with more vegetables and less meat, but this was really a rare delicacy.

There were several dishes on the table, except for Qiao Hongyuan, everyone sat around the big table, and one person ate a bowl of rice balls first, and then ate.

On the radio on the side, the host's voice was slowly reading the article, accompanied by soft music, which was very delicious.

Although Qiao Jiayue regretted that she didn't arrive, she still had a good time today.

After dinner, everyone sat down to eat, and the twins took a deck of playing cards to catch turtles with Hu Guoguo, and the three of them had a lot of notes on their foreheads, looking weird and stupid.

Qiao Jiayue watched it and planned to turn off the radio and change it to a tape, but the radio seemed to go to the next program, talking about the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

Her hand couldn't help but pause, and she glanced at Hu Ailan, who came over and listened carefully.

"The big brother of the USSR has changed. Hu Ailan said a little sadly.

She is a native of the north, and she used to study Russian when she was studying, but after relations between the two countries deteriorated, this course was slowly canceled.

So when she applied for the volunteer, she didn't hesitate to fill in the English major.

"There are too few countries that can stand firm on one line. "Especially since this road is still being explored, it is easy to change qualitatively.

Hu Ailan agreed with Qiao Jiayue's words, "That's true." But if this happens, will next year's Olympics be held smoothly?"

"There will be a lot of countries that will boycott it, so let's see. Qiao Jiayue didn't pay much attention to this, she didn't like sports that much.

"I don't know what the attitude of our country will be. Hu Ailan has to worry about it.

"It's not something we can worry about. Qiao Jiayue shook her head, "I'm curious about what the situation of the Soviet Union is now, how can it start a war?"

Qiao Hongliang suddenly interjected: "I don't think these are anything to pay attention to, what I'm more curious about is, are their various scientific research still going on?"

If a country wants to carry out an aggressive plan against other countries, then it will definitely have to reduce the budget of other areas and increase the expenditure on military weapons and so on.

At present, the United States is far ahead in science and technology, and the Soviet Union is closely following, if they can recruit their scientists and research scholars, it will be a huge boost to China's scientific research.

The two girls listened to Qiao Hongliang's speculation, and were silent at the same time, the angle of thinking of boys is really different from that of girls.

But I have to say that Qiao Hongliang's idea is very good.

"Third brother, do you think our country may succeed?" Even if you can't recruit those scientific researchers, even if you can't study the data!

"Why is it impossible? Our two countries are bordered by each other, and the proximity of each other has an advantage in itself. Qiao Hongliang just thinks that as long as the country wants to do it, there is nothing that cannot be done.

"Do you need to find someone to put forward this opinion?" Qiao Jiayue thought, she could mention it to Chief Li, but it really didn't work, Xu Yu should be able to do it.

Qiao Hongliang didn't speak.

Hu Ailan resolutely closed her mouth, always feeling as if she knew something.

At the same time, she was also shocked by the dialogue between Qiao Jiayue's brother and sister, the difference between people and people is so big.

If it were herself, she would at most sigh and would never come up with these solutions.

"Yue'er, I'll talk about this in a few days. Qiao Hongliang didn't mean that Hu Ailan was taboo, but he felt that he could think of it himself, so Qiao Hongyuan should be able to think of it.

At this time, there was nothing new on the radio, Qiao Jiayue decisively changed the tape, squinted her eyes and listened.

Hu Ailan lovingly looked at her daughters who were happily playing with the twins, she hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.

At this time, after singing one song, the next song became English, Hu Ailan said suspiciously: "Hey, how can there be an English song?"

"People on Hong Kong Island speak English, and sometimes they add an English song or two to the album, which is normal for them. ”

Hu Ailan frowned and listened to this kind of song, she suddenly said: "Actually, the new English teacher has taught English songs, and many girls in our class are learning them. ”

"Teacher Lu is also planning to hold a Christmas party, and the class cadres have gone to help prepare. In fact, these days, the most they talk about is Christmas, gifts, and balls, completely forgetting that today is the winter solstice. “

Qiao Jiayue heard Hu Ailan say this, and looked at her suspiciously, not knowing what she wanted to express.

"Jiayue, I'm just worried that everyone's attitude towards this Christmas is too much, and they think it's better than our holiday. ”

"In the future, will everyone respect foreign things and abandon our own things?"

Qiao Jiayue was silent and didn't answer, and said for a long time: "What you say may happen, but what can it be?"

Hu Ailan looked at Hu Guoguo and said with a wry smile: "It really can't be anything, I can't live a good life, where can I manage so many things in the future." ”

The prosperity of Western countries, everyone gradually knows, how can you not yearn for it?

"We just need to be ourselves. Qiao Jiayue said that her wish has never been big, as long as her family is well.

That night, Qiao Jiayue and Hu Ailan chatted a lot, and she knew that Hu Ailan had translated the book into English, but after sending it to the publishing house, there was no follow-up.

This was introduced by Guo Yufan, but it didn't help much.

Although there are few people who can speak English now, but those old professors in the past are amazing, and the translations are more beautiful and in line with the meaning of the text, how can the publishing house choose a student's translation?

Qiao Jiayue comforted Hu Ailan a few words, and she also felt a little emotional.

Late at night, the twins and Qiao Hongliang went to sleep, and Hu Guoguo was also placed.

Qiao Jiayue and Hu Ailan were sitting on the kang, and a small bottle of bayberry wine was placed on the kang table next to them.

The two of them each poured a glass and chatted while drinking, talking about the past and the future.

Qiao Jiayue didn't know why, so she talked about participating in the earthquake rescue back then.

"At that time, I really didn't feel the passage of time, life was too fragile, and it was one more to save one. ”

This was the first time Hu Ailan heard Qiao Jiayue tell her story, and she was surprised and admired at the same time.

"You're the hero. Hu Ailan raised her glass to Qiao Jiayue, "Hero, that's what you said." ”

Qiao Jiayue took a sip of bayberry wine, "I don't think I'm a hero, I just want my parents to live a good life." ”

The life of facing the loess with your back to the sky is too hard, and the helplessness of relying on the sky to eat is too uncomfortable.

"I ...... I will raise Guoguo, I don't ask her to be more productive, I hope she is happy and safe, I don't have any ability as a mother, and I don't want to force her to be stronger than me. ”

Qiao Jiayue glanced at Hu Guoguo, who was sleeping on the side, "Guoguo will have a future, you have to believe in your daughter." "I want to talk about "Sixty Farming" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "Youyue Literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
