Nan Nan and Zhu Zi were married three months after Yao Huang returned home, and two years later, Yao Huang was promoted to the youngest grandmother. Her life is very ordinary, helping her daughter take care of the children every day, reading books, and helping out in the snack bar. Song Tianpeng has never said that he likes Yao Huang since he confessed that day, he silently took care of Yao Huang and expressed his love for Yao Huang with practical actions. After a few years, Nan Nan was also moved by Song Tianpeng's behavior, and privately told Yao Huang that she supported Yao Huang and Song Tianpeng together. Yao Huang was noncommittal about this, Yao Huang was moved by Song Tianpeng's feelings, but he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. When she saw Song Tianpeng, she remembered the picture of Song Tianpeng, the little bun with a bare buttocks, in her memory, which made her unable to treat him as a big man she could rely on. Song Tianpeng was not discouraged by this, and did not change his love for Yao Huang for several years. However, he didn't spend much time with Yao Huang, and his research work was so extensive that it took up almost half of his time. The U.S. government attaches great importance to young scientists like him, and Yao Huang found that two FBIs have been following Song Tianpeng in the shadows, both for protection and surveillance.

On the evening of autumn, the afterglow of the setting sun shone warmly on people, Yao Huang sat on a wicker chair in the courtyard, drinking black tea while reading a casual novel. The five-year-old grandson steamed bun chased the little football and ran around the yard.

Song Tianpeng returned home and saw such a warm scene, and in an instant, his determination to do a good job was shaken. He was unwilling to leave this woman, not for a day, even if this woman did not have him in her heart. However, the professor was right. New China has just been founded, and the motherland needs these talents to go back to construction. Contribute to the development and progress of the motherland. The woman in front of him also once said to him that the purpose of his study was not for the construction of the motherland? back then. She returned to China alone when her motherland was in danger, and now that the country is safe, it is also his turn to do his part, how can he refuse Professor Qian's proposal? However, he really didn't want to leave her!

"Tianpeng, are you back? Why is it so early today? Yao Huang stood up with a smile, and after seeing Song Tianpeng's tightly knit brows, he asked with concern, "Your face is so bad." Are you sick? Reach over and I'll give you a pulse. ”

"No, I'm not sick." Song Tianpeng waved his hand and said, "It's just that I'm a little tired from work, just take a break." ”

"Then you go back to your room first."

Looking at Song Tianpeng's slightly drooping shoulders and heavy steps, Yao Huang felt a little distressed in his heart, Song Tianpeng's efforts in the past few years were not without effect, but Yao Huang himself was not aware of it.

"Little steamed buns, come here. We went into the house. Yao Huang greeted his little grandson.

The steamed bun ran to Yao Huang's side with a small football in his arms, and said coquettishly, "Grandma, I still want to play." ”

Gently pat the dust off the clothes of the small buns. Yao Huang picked up the little bun, "Good, I'm going to eat later." Shall we go back to the shower first? ”

The little bun pouted its red and tender little mouth. However, he didn't insist on playing anymore, and was carried into the house by Yao Huang. Give the little bun to his nanny. Yao Huang walked into the kitchen. In the kitchen, the cook she hired, Sister-in-law Bai, was preparing dinner. The white sister-in-law is a widow. He is a descendant of coolies who were sold to the United States in the late Qing Dynasty, and once worked in a restaurant in Chinatown in LA, and could cook Chinese food. The resulting meals were praised by everyone.

"Lady Nora, is there anything I can do to help you?" Seeing Yao Huang enter the kitchen, Sister-in-law Bai put down the half-washed vegetables in her hand and asked.

"Sister-in-law, are there stick bones and mushrooms?" Yao Huang asked.

"Yes." Bai Sister-in-law said, "There are two stick bones, and some sheep liver mushrooms." Do you want to make soup? ”

"Yes, Tianpeng is too tired from work, I want to make a soup to make up for him." Yao Huang nodded, bone broth has the effect of relieving fatigue.

"Okay, then I'll make soup right away." The white sister-in-law took out the stick bones and sheep liver mushrooms.

"No, you can cook other dishes. I make the soup myself. Yao Juju neatly threw the stick bones into a large pot to boil the foam, scooped them up and put them in a clay pot, poured in water, threw in the mutton mushrooms, carrots, green onions and ginger, and simmered over low heat for half an hour. Remove from pan with salt and white pepper and sprinkle with coriander. A fragrant bone broth is ready.

Nan Nan and Zhuzi came home from work, one of them was an editor of the newspaper and the other was a middle school teacher, and they were usually very busy, but they were more relaxed than Song Tianpeng. Yao Huang put a big bowl of bone broth in front of Song Tianpeng, and when he heard Sister-in-law Bai say that the bone broth was specially stewed for him by Yao Huang, Song Tianpeng was pleasantly surprised, and most of the troubles in his heart disappeared.

Yao Huang smiled slightly, lowered his head and did not face Song Tianpeng's affectionate gaze, thus missing the struggle in his eyes.

Halfway through the meal, Song Tianpeng received a call from his teacher, and because he didn't want Yao Huang and the others to know what they were talking about, Song Tianpeng returned to his room, leaving a few people looking at each other.

"I think Tianpeng has something on his mind." Stake Road.

"Nonsense, it's so obvious, we can all see it." Nan Nan picked out the thorns in the fish and put them in the bowl of steamed buns, "Mom, do you know what the second uncle is for?" ”

Yao Huang shook his head, "I don't know, but I think it probably has something to do with his work." ”

"Second uncle is not going well at work? Then there is no way, we can't help. ”

"Look at it again, maybe it's just temporary, and there will be no trouble solving problems at work."

In the following days, Song Tianpeng was preoccupied, and his weight plummeted. Yao Huang is worried about his health, and will make nutritious soup every day to nourish his body, but it doesn't seem to have much effect. When Yao and Huang couldn't help but talk to Song Tianpeng, Song Tianpeng left home one night and left only a letter for everyone.

In the letter, Song Tianpeng said that he would return to the motherland with his professor, Professor Qian, to help the motherland develop its own atomic bomb. At the end of the letter, Song Tianpeng left Yao Huang with three words: I'm sorry. The handwriting pierced the letter paper, which shows how reluctant and uncomfortable Song Tianpeng was when he wrote these three words.

"Why did the second uncle call back to China quietly? How worried we are by doing this! After reading the letter, she was worried and complained.

Yao Huang pinched the letter, and suddenly his body moved slightly, and he jumped out of the window on the second floor. The light power was carried to the maximum, Yao Huang ran in the dark until the strength of his whole body was exhausted, and he did not chase the person who left home.

When I returned home in a low mood, I was immediately surrounded by three large and small, "How is it?" Have you found Tianpeng? ”

"Nope." Yao Huang shook his head in frustration, "I only found two FBIs who had been monitoring Tianpeng, and they were knocked unconscious. ”

"Someone is secretly helping the second uncle." Nan Nan reacted, "This is not a whim, but a planned action." ”

"Now that the United States and China have a hostile relationship, will they be able to leave the United States smoothly? Tianpeng won't encounter danger along the way, right? "I'm worried about my friends.

"Probably not." In Yao Huang's memory, a group of scientists led by Professor Qian returned to their motherland safely.

"But without news from the second uncle, I am still not at ease." Nan Nan frowned.

"I called Professor Qian to ask about it." After the stake finished speaking, he went to get the microphone.

"It's useless, Professor Qian is the initiator of the whole operation, he must leave before the second uncle, and it is impossible to find him even if he calls."

The stake put down the microphone in despair, "So what now?" The anxious man died. Bastard Tianpeng ran away so quietly, and when he saw him, he had to beat him up. ”

"Someone should know the news of Dao Tianpeng." Yao Huang said suddenly, and when the stake and the girl looked at her, he ordered the girl to say, "Go and call the white sister-in-law." ”

"Madame, may I ask what is the matter at such a late hour? Is it a late-night snack? Sister-in-law Bai asked suspiciously, with a sleepy look on her face.

"Sister-in-law Bai, we want to know the whereabouts of Lu Dao Tianpeng." Yao Huang didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

"Madam, didn't Mr. Song sleep in the room?" Sister-in-law Bai had a puzzled expression.

Yao Huang snorted lightly, "Sister-in-law Bai, you have to be sloppy, since I came to you for questioning, I have already determined your identity, and what you did in this operation in Tianpeng." You and your people knocked out the two FBIs, right? ”

"Madame, I don't know what you're talking about. What FBI? Has the FBI visited your home? Sister-in-law Bai asked pretending to be stupid.

"Still pretending?" Yao Huang frowned, she admired the underground workers of the motherland, but if it involved people or things around her, Yao Huang couldn't really be happy, "You shouldn't be a descendant of overseas Chinese, but a member of the new red regime, right?" The purpose of coming to our house to be a cook is to cooperate with the new China side and bring back to China Tianpeng, a scientist who participated in the manufacture of the atomic bomb. You say, did I guess wrong? ”

After listening to Yao Huang's words, Sister-in-law Bai stopped pretending to be stupid, walked up to Yao Huang and sat down, her expression became serious: "Mrs. Yao, you are very smart, and you are worthy of being the person who participated in the Chongqing peace talks with Marshall." As you said, Mr. Song followed Professor Qian back to his motherland, and we were the ones who helped them leave. After all, with their status, the U.S. government cannot release people at will. ”

"Sure enough. What I want to know is if they are in danger along the way? Yao Huang let out a long sigh.

"Rest assured, the U.S. government does not dare to embarrass Mr. Song and them openly, but secretly have our people to protect them, and Mr. Song and Professor Qian and his party will definitely be able to return to the motherland safely." Sister-in-law Bai assured.

"How can you guarantee that? As far as I know, Professor Qian wanted to return to his motherland when the People's Republic of China was first founded, but he was arrested by the FBI and brutally tortured in a detention center on Termina Island. Later, it was the help of Professor Qian's American friends that the immigration bureau had to release him? (To be continued......)
