"Eat apples." Lin Yaxuan peeled an apple on the side, cut it into slices and put it on a plate, inserted a toothpick on it, smiled into a crescent moon and handed it to Zhou Liwen.

"The water spilled by the married daughter, you haven't officially married yet, and the treatment at home is different?" Lin Ruofu looked at them with a smile and deliberately shook his head and joked. Lin Yaxuan's face turned red, picked up a piece of apple and stuffed it into Lin Ruofu's mouth, making Lin Ruofu laugh happily.

"What are you happy about?" After cleaning up, Zhao Xinfang returned to the living room and asked with a smile, Lin Yaxuan hurriedly muttered a few words in her ear, Zhao Xinfang covered her mouth and was happy after hearing it, and then glanced at Lin Ruofu: "You old guy, how old are you and still eat your daughter's vinegar?" ”

Ignoring her smiling husband, Zhao Xinfang took her daughter's hand and sat down on the side and chatted with Zhou Liwen. Women, especially the elders, talk about nothing more than trivial things, no different from Zhou Liwen's mother Li Xiaoyuan.

"The snacks in Huacheng are good, but after all, they can't compare to the meals they cook. Xiaowen, there is no one around you when you work outside, sometimes you have to boil some soup by yourself, cook some meals or something, and you always can't keep up with the nutrition when you eat outside. Zhao Xinfang is a doctor, and she pays the most attention to these, and after asking about Zhou Liwen's recent situation, she specially told a few words.

"Thank you, Mom, it's okay, our treasurer is close to where I live, sometimes they will make some by themselves, and I don't miss going over to eat and drink."

"That's it, that's it......." Zhao Xinfang nodded reassuringly, but she still sighed with emotion If she wasn't busy with work, she would have liked to have time to go to Huacheng for a few days, and the last time she went was seven or eight years ago, and she didn't know if Huacheng was still what she remembered after all these years.

Zhou Liwen smiled and said that the old area of Huacheng has not changed much, but some new areas have opened very quickly in the past few days, not to mention that Zhao Xinfang has not been there for so many years, that is, Zhou Liwen, a person who lives in Huacheng, if he has not passed by a certain place for two or three months, maybe it will change a lot if he passes by again.

Following Zhao Xinfang's words, Zhou Liwen's heart moved, and he went to live in Huacheng together for a few days on May Day. Although this construction is good, Zhao Xinfang still shook his head and refused, Zhou Liwen didn't wait for him to ask strangely, Lin Ruofu on the side explained that Zhao Xinfang is now the backbone of the hospital, busier than him on weekdays, and the hospital is different from other units, especially on holidays.

"Xiaowen doesn't know yet, right? Your mother, she's about to be promoted to deputy chief physician. You say, how can she walk away at such a time? ”

"No matter how much you mention it, you're not as good as you, my great professor!" Zhao Xinfang replied sourly, but the pride in her expression couldn't be concealed at all. As a doctor, the deputy chief physician and the attending physician are a threshold, and crossing this threshold is equivalent to stepping into the ranks of senior physicians, just like the difference between lecturers and associate professors, which is a watershed for any doctor, and many doctors may not be able to step through it in their lifetime, which is a very proud thing for Zhao Xinfang.

Congratulations to Zhao Xinfang, Zhou Liwen couldn't help but ask about Lin Ruofu's work, although he knew that Lin Ruofu was doing research at the Shanghai Academy of Sciences, but what he was doing was never clear.

"He?" Zhou Liwen asked this question, and without waiting for Lin Ruofu to speak, Zhao Xinfang shook his head and said: "Their academy is a nursing home, to put it bluntly, they go to work on time every day, get off work on time, a newspaper and a cup of tea, and ...... of grinding and messing around." ”

"How can you say that!" Zhao Xinfang's words made Lin Ruofu immediately unhappy, he pushed the eyes on the bridge of his nose, and said very solemnly: "The strength of our Academy of Sciences is still very strong, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has created many miracles in various fields, not to mention far, let's just say that it is close, during the Eighth Five-Year Plan period, our Academy of Sciences has made important achievements in 11 projects such as biology, medical care, electronic engineering, and semiconductors, and has been awarded ...... by the state. ”

"Okay, okay, it's the old yellow calendar of that year." Without waiting for Lin Ruofu to finish speaking, Zhao Xinfang interrupted disdainfully: "Let me ask you, do you have any achievements in your Academy of Sciences after the Eighth Five-Year Plan?" Aside from a few broken groups in a few theoretical papers that have not been verified in practice, what is there to be anything substantial? In the past few years, don't you know better than me about the situation of the Academy of Sciences? Didn't I say that you Lao Lin, with your ability, you should go, and being a professor at a university is not better than doing this idle chief researcher every day? ”

"You know what!" It seemed to poke the sore spot in Lin Ruofu's heart, and he suddenly glared at his wife: "I'm going to college?" Will I be able to continue my research at university? Yes, the social status and income of being a university professor are much higher than my current research, but if this was all I want, I wouldn't have chosen this career in the first place, I ....... ”

Seeing that the old husband and wife were quarrelling, Zhou Liwen hurriedly glanced at Lin Yaxuan when he saw that the situation was not good, and the two hurriedly gaged, which persuaded them to leave.

"Xiaowen, you talk, I still have a medical record to read." Although she persuaded them, Zhao Xinfang was still a little uncomfortable with her husband's dead eyes, so she reluctantly smiled and got up and went back to her house.

Zhao Xinfang left, and Lin Ruofu, who was sitting there, lowered his head slightly with an ugly face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhou Liwen didn't expect that a good chat would suddenly become like this, and now it's not too early, he thought about it and was about to get up and say goodbye, but he didn't expect Lin Ruofu to suddenly open his mouth.

"Xiaowen, is there any smoke?"

"Yes, yes." Zhou Liwen hurriedly took a pack of cigarettes, Lin Ruofu took out one, lit it with the fire handed by Zhou Liwen, and then took a hard breath. Unexpectedly, Lin Ruofu, who usually doesn't smoke much, smoked too hard this time, and couldn't help coughing.

"Dad, are you alright?" Lin Yaxuan hurriedly stepped forward to help him pat his back, and Zhou Liwen was not idle, so he hurriedly got up and poured a glass of water.

"It's okay, it's okay......." Lin Ruofu waved his hand, finally stopped coughing, and then picked up the cigarette and took another puff, this time he smoked slowly and solemnly, and after a while, the smoke that swirled from his lungs sprayed out of his mouth and nose.

Sighing, Lin Ruofu shook his head a little disappointed and said: "Xiaoya, Xiaowen, in fact, what your mother said is right, I am a fool, I know that staying in the Academy of Sciences like this has no results, it is better to go to the university to teach, or even go abroad to visit WÈN scholars is more promising." But don't I know? I'm reluctant, reluctant! It's been 25 years, I've been working here for 25 years, my youth, dreams, and hopes are all here, can I be willing to abandon them and leave alone? ”

Faced with Lin Ruofu's self-talking statement, Zhou Liwen and Lin Yaxuan didn't know what to do, so they could only comfort with good words. Maybe Lin Ruofu has been holding back in his heart for too long, this usually elegant and funny elder rarely said what he thought in front of the younger generation today, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was like a box that couldn't be closed, and Zhou Liwen gradually understood from his words.

(Let me tell you something, I accidentally sprained my waist last night, very strict, and the doctor told me to lie down and recuperate, so I can't keep two shifts a day for the time being, only one shift.) When it gets a little better, it will be restored, and please continue to support! Thank you!)
