Chapter 40: Father's Troubles

Jiang Chen rode a straddle into the aerospace family community, it is now autumn, the tall plane trees on both sides of the road have a little red, individual leaves are gradually turning yellow, and some have withered down, scattered on the road, adding a little color to these old buildings full of the vicissitudes of the times. Jiang Chen admired the beauty in front of him, and unconsciously came to his door.

Maybe they heard the sound of the car, and the two little girls rushed to Jiang Chen from the yard and shouted, "Brother, brother!"

"Hey, Xiao Xin, Xiao Qian, do you miss your brother?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

"Yes, brother, my mother said you went to see your grandfather. Xiao Qian on the side looked at Jiang Chen and asked.

Jiang Chen said with a smile: "My brother went to work at my grandfather's place." ”

"Then have you seen your grandfather?" Xiao Xin asked.

"Of course. Jiang Chen touched the little girl's head and replied with a smile.

"Then does Grandpa miss us?" the little girl asked as she looked at Jiang Chen with wide eyes.

"Of course I thought about it, my grandfather asked me if you two were well-behaved at home. Jiang Chen replied with a lie. It was a tense job all day, and Lei Zhan was the leader of this time, so he had to take care of everything, so naturally he didn't have time to ask the two little girls. In order not to disappoint them, Jiang Chen told a white lie.

"Good! we're good!" replied the two little girls.

"Well, let's go inside. Jiang Chen walked into the house with his things and two little girls.

"Mom, I'm back. Jiang Chen put down his things and shouted.

"I'm back, get some rest, I'm in the kitchen. From the kitchen came the voice of Redan.

Jiang Chen ignored the two little girls who were playing by himself, walked into the kitchen by himself, took out a cucumber from the washed dishes, broke it in half, and then leaned against the door frame and nibbled on the cucumber, while looking at Lei Dan who was busy and asked, "Where is my dad?" ”

Lei Dan replied while busy washing vegetables: "I am busy in the factory, and I will be back in a while." ”

"I've been busy for just a few days, so why don't you rest. Jiang Chen said with some doubts.

"Hehe, you think it's you, he just completed this launch mission, there is a lot of follow-up work to do, and he has been meeting and making reports in the past few days, and he is not very home. Redan explained with a smile.

"Oh, so that's the case, the leaders of this aviation institute are too much, they've been on a business trip for almost half a year, and they haven't let people rest for a few days. Jiang Chen complained a little.

"Stinky boy, what are you talking about, this is your father's will. However, you said that what is the matter with you? Why don't you come home after coming back for a few days, or when your grandfather called, I found out. Lei Dan grabbed Jiang Chen's ear and feigned anger.

"Oops, oops, Mom, it hurts, it hurts!" Jiang Chen pretended to beg for mercy, but in fact, Lei Dan didn't screw it heavily, and Jiang Chen was just pleasing his mother.

"Say, what have you been doing in the past few days?" said Lei Dan, still unrelenting.

"Mom, that's actually true. Jiang Chen told Lei Dan a series of embarrassing things he had on the train.

After hearing this, Lei Dan covered his mouth and smiled: "Stinky boy, what kind of bad idea are you thinking, you don't know that so many people are worried about you." ”

"Mom, I won't dare next time. Jiang Chen said coquettishly.

"Hehe, I can't control you, you hurry up and marry Xiaoyun and let her take care of you, you don't know, I heard Siyan say that Xiaoyun dragged her and went to see you off when you got in the car that day. Redan said as he began to cook.

"Oh? yes, how I don't know. Jiang Chen was surprised, because they got in the car really late that day, he didn't expect this stupid girl to go to see him off in person, but why didn't he show up, didn't I tell her, don't send it if it's too late, why is she so stupid?

It's not good to show it in front of his mother, Jiang Chen asked again to eliminate his embarrassment: "Has my dad seen it?"

"I also need you to say that your father met the day he came back, and he was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, and he also said that finally someone can take care of my bastard family. Lei Dan said proudly, she didn't expect her husband to be so satisfied, and she thought that she had decided with just one phone call and was angry. In fact, she didn't know that Jiang Keming was actually a little angry, you said that you can just call me and tell me about such a big matter, although my Jiang family is not a wealthy family, but not everyone can be worthy of it. But when he came back to meet him, he completely changed his previous opinion, this little girl is very quiet, and his naughty son is very complementary to his personality, and this girl has a good background, and she has a good education, so it is very reassuring to hand over this immature boy to her.

"I'm so uneasy, you don't care about me, you have to let me get married soon, I still want to eat your cooking for a few more years. Jiang Chen deliberately pretended to be a little unhappy.

"Don't pretend, it's cheap and good, and I don't know if I remember my old lady with a handsome daughter-in-law. Lei Dan said with some surprise, she didn't know about her own son, this was playing a scoundrel for herself.

"How come, I will definitely remember our own mother, not only will I remember but I will also let her remember, to honor you and my father. Jiang Chen said again.

"Go, go, make me happy, go and rest for a while, I'll cook, and I'll start the meal when your dad comes back." Lei Dan waved his hand and motioned for Jiang Chen to leave.

"Mom, I'll do it, you rest and rest. Jiang Chen walked in front of him and said.

"No, no, I'll do it, just for a while. ”

"Mom, come on, you go and rest, and besides, my dad shouldn't have eaten my cooking." ”

"Okay, you call me for something, I'll urge the two ghost girls to do their homework, and my grades have dropped a lot this semester. Redan agreed with a smile on his face.

Jiang Chen shook his head when he heard the noise made by his mother going to the two little girls, and began to cook his own food, all of which were home-cooked ingredients, and there was no special preparation, probably because he came back and bought a fish, his parents were actually quite simple, they were all people who had lived a hard life, so they have always maintained this tradition.

"Where's the son?" Jiang Chen was cooking when he heard a rough voice outside, and Jiang Chen instinctively reacted that his father was back.

"Yo, my son is cooking, I'm blessed to hear your mother praise you to the sky. Jiang Keming picked up the cucumber that Jiang Chen broke and looked at Jiang Chen while eating it and said with a smile, I have to say that this habit is really biological, and it is definitely not the old king next door.

"Dad!" Jiang Chen shouted with a smile and continued to get busy, he needed a process of acceptance now, although he had made enough preparations, he was still not comfortable meeting suddenly.

"Well, it's dark, it's strong, and it's become much more mature. Jiang Keming looked at Jiang Chen carefully with doting eyes.

"Dad, no matter how I change, I'm still your son. Jiang Chen replied with a smile, in fact, he muttered a little in his heart, very nervous, could it be that the old man noticed something?

"Yes, no matter how it changes, it's still my precious son, hurry up and cook, let me try your craft, what your mother said when she called me, I have been looking forward to it. Jiang Keming replied with a smile.

"Okay!" Jiang Chen smiled in his heart and began to continue cooking, and Jiang Keming seemed to be a little tired and leaned on the sofa for a while, Jiang Chen also lowered his voice after noticing, and Lei Dan also took a blanket and put it on it, and motioned to the two little girls to make a quieter voice.

The whole family was satisfied, Jiang Keming praised Jiang Chen's craftsmanship again and again, saying that he was definitely a chef, and finally deliberately ate half a bowl of rice. Needless to say, the two little girls ate too much, and Lei Dan was also worried about whether eating so much would cause indigestion, so he let the two little girls go out to eat and eat. Jiang Chen's aunt Lei Juan was not here, she went to the countryside to inspect and did not come back, and Liu Yun and the crazy girl Li Siyan did not come either, probably because Jiang Chen's father was a little shy when he came back. After the meal, Lei Dan began to clean up the kitchen, Jiang Chen was going to clean up, but Lei Dan didn't let him, in her words, she couldn't look down on Jiang Chen's work.

Jiang Keming made a cup of tea and lit a cigarette and leisurely looked at the documents, and Jiang Chen was embarrassed to bother and picked up a book and read it very boringly, the time after the meal was very leisurely, which made Jiang Chen feel rare happiness.

After a while, Jiang Chen found that Jiang Keming's expression was getting worse and worse, and it wasn't until he finished reading the last page that he threw the document on the table and scolded: "It's getting more and more disagreeable, and the Aviation Academy won't be abandoned if it goes on like this." ”

Seeing his father making such a big fire, Jiang Chen put down the book and said in surprise: "Dad, what's wrong, what made you so angry?"

Jiang Keming lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and sighed: "The funds of the Aviation Institute are insufficient, and some of the funds for scientific research projects must be cut to ensure the normal operation of the Aviation Institute." ”

"Oh, I see. Only then did Jiang Chen understand why his father was so angry, the aerospace system in this period had just been restored, and it was still very weak, and it was not as awesome as in later generations. Now the whole system is supported by state grants, but this can only be partially funded when you receive the launch project, and it can only be maintained in normal times, and this kind of project is not as intensive as in later generations, dozens of times a year. Now there are very few launch missions, sometimes maybe not once a year, and they can't receive projects, so it is very difficult, and the widely circulated "those who engage in missiles are not as good as those who sell tea and eggs" during this period is a good portrayal.

"But this has nothing to do with you, you are the deputy chief engineer, no matter how much you cut, you can't cut it. Jiang Chen tried to comfort.

"I feel sorry for it! If these projects are stalled and the scientific research personnel are disbanded, it will be difficult to pick them up again in the future, why don't you think these leaders will look far?" Jiang Keming sighed with a somewhat painful expression.

Seeing his father's uncomfortable appearance, Jiang Chen was very distressed. He knew that during this period, many scientific research projects were indeed abandoned due to financial difficulties, but when the country wanted to re-research, he found that he had no way to start, some materials had been lost, and some researchers had passed away, so he had to start new and slow research. The most representative here are the large aircraft program (many military and civilian ones), as well as the nuclear submarine program, the ship program, and of course, the rocket and missile program. Thinking of this, Jiang Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he thought that he could use the advantages of his father and the Aviation Academy to unite with his own factory to develop a weapon, Jiang Chen remembered that a certain weapon equipped in the army in later generations was very excited when he was showing his majesty now.

He tried to calm his mood and smiled at Jiang Keming: "That, Dad, are you interested in researching projects with us to earn some scientific research funds?"

"Oh?" Jiang Keming said with some surprise: "What kind of project are you studying? Don't say it's a research project on rockets and missiles, it's a serious violation of discipline, and it's definitely not okay." ”

"No, we haven't done this much research, we want to develop a 、、、、、、" Jiang Chen slowly told his father what he was thinking.

Jiang Keming's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened, until finally he said excitedly: "Yes, if this project is successful, it will solve a large part of our funds! But I can't make the decision, I have to hand it over to our party/committee for discussion and research, you can wait for news." ”

After speaking, Jiang Keming ignored the gradually darkening sky outside and the persuasion of Jiang Chen and Lei Dan, and walked quickly outside.
