Letters and happy candy were sent, and only at the end of the next month could they receive letters and returns, and Fang Yuan and Zhang Ya, who were officially married, moved to a two-bedroom house and devoted themselves to the construction of the satellite together.

At work, time always flies quickly, but fortunately, with Zhang Ya's company, life is much happier.

At the end of the following month, Fang Yuan got Ma Haowen's reply.

"It's been five years, and I've finally received your letter............ And the good news, remember the night we first entered college, when we were drinking, we talked to each other about our plans for the future? ”

"I succeeded, and now I am officially a construction engineer with a high salary............

“………… So far in my life, I have been very satisfied, my original wish has been fulfilled, I married such a beautiful daughter-in-law as Xinyu, the salary is so high, and now I have a house and a car, I am very content. ”

"The only regret is that I didn't get to share this process with you, and no matter how long it takes you to develop something, I'm looking forward to the day when you're there."

"Zhu Shun———— your forever friend Ma Haowen."

Along with the reply, there were three photographs, one taken when they were married, one taken when the child was born, and one ......

"Whew~"

Fang Yuan looked at Wang Xinyu wearing a birthday crown in the photo, Zhang Ya with red and swollen eyes, and Ma Haowen who was smiling with a strong face, and turned to the back of the photo, which was engraved with the date of the photo.

3 March 1989.

……………………

Time continues to pass in the continuous progress of work, and Fang Yuan, who has the talent of [fast learning], has played a vital role in the research and development process, which has greatly increased the research and development process of satellites.

It's just that from their target ———— manned aviation.

It's still far away, it's a distance that takes time to make up, and the role of a person's talent is limited after all.

Fortunately, time is moving forward firmly, and their process is constantly accelerating.

With the opportunity to exchange letters once a month, his life became more colorful.

In 1998, he received a letter from Ma Haowen, saying that he would preside over the construction of the Dongpei Bridge.

Once one person does this, then his bridge will be stepped on!

When he received the reply again, Ma Haowen said very seriously that he would definitely pay attention to such a thing, which made Fang Yuan breathe a sigh of relief.

———— may not be a qualified Ma Haowen, who has not experienced everything in the film, but he wants his friend Ma Haowen, not the great father.

In the midst of such a continuous passage of time, an extremely important date has arrived in the blink of an eye: on August 8, 2008, the first Olympic Games of New China were launched in the capital.

Fortunately, the satellite research and development work made a breakthrough on the same day, and Ma Haowen finally succeeded in building the Dongpei Bridge———— his apprentice was arrested and imprisoned at the beginning!

In the following time, the satellite research and development work changed with each passing day, and in 2010, the manned space project was successfully completed!

This time, the spaceship was specially taken care of by Fang Yuan, and a lot of insurance was added in many places, even if it was an accident in the original play, the chance of avoiding danger was much greater.

Although the process has changed, in the correspondence over the years, Fang Yuan still learned that Ma Haowen's son, Ma Fei, still successfully joined the air force.

As for how far he can go in the future, it depends on his creation.

On March 3, 2010, Fang Yuan, who officially achieved his mission, returned to the city with Wang Xinyu.

"Times are changing so fast!"

At the moment when the autocratic personnel accompanied him into the city, Zhang Ya looked at the high-rise buildings in front of him, the splendid city, and said in a trance.

"yes, times are changing so fast!"

Fang Yuan was also a little stunned for a while.

Although it came from the afterlife, it is only through this period that we can more deeply appreciate the changes of the times.

Amazingly fast!

"Well, take us here."

Taking out the address that Ma Haowen wrote to them last time, Fang Yuan said with a smile to the full-time staff who accompanied them.

"Don't bother, I'll take you there!"

The young man had a respectful smile on his face, and then together with his companions, he rushed to Ma Haowen's house with Fang Yuan.

……………………

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The sudden knock on the door pulled Ma Haowen's eyes back from the Medal of Honor sent back by his son, he turned around to look at it, and shouted loudly: "Who? ”

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

After asking and getting no answer, Ma Haowen walked to the back of the door and looked out of the door through the cat's eye.

“……”

"Click."

The security door was slammed open, and Ma Haowen looked at Fang Yuan and Zhang Ya standing outside the door with a stunned expression.

"Brother Yuan, Sister Ya."

Ma Haowen's breathing was a little trembling, and there was a trilling sound in his voice.

"Who?"

A puzzled voice sounded in the kitchen, followed by Wang Xinyu, who was wearing an apron, also stood up and saw Fang Yuan and the others standing outside the door.

"Bang ......"

The dish in his hand fell to the ground, Wang Xinyu was unconscious, and was stunned for a moment before suddenly coming back to his senses.

"Fang Yuan, Zhang Ya!"

The scene seems to go back in time, when they were in junior high school, the scene where the four of them gathered to study for the first time in the drying field, and the dinner that Fang Yuan left on the night when they first entered the university, invariably played out in their minds.

"Old horse, I haven't seen you for half a lifetime, don't come unharmed!"

Unconsciously, the skin on Fang Yuan's face had slackened, he looked at Ma Haowen, whose hair was already a little gray, and hugged him with a smile.

"yes, I haven't seen you in half my life!"

Ma Haowen secretly wiped his tears, and calculated slightly, it has been twenty-one years since Fang Yuan left!

"Xinyu!"

"Zhang Ya!"

On the other side, Zhang Ya and Wang Xinyu also came together, hugged each other, and tears flashed in their eyes.

Twenty-one years, twenty-one cold and summer, really, for a long time, for a long time.

……………………

"I'm okay now, but you, who have been hiding in the ravines and ravines for half of your life to dedicate yourself to the motherland, think about the Olympics over the years, the Internet...... Blah blah, you're missing out on too much. ”

After sitting at the dining table, Ma Haowen said to the other party with emotion.

He suddenly asked from afar: "Half of our life has passed in the blink of an eye, and you have spent the most important time in that R&D institute that no one knows, missing so much, so much............ Is it worth it? ”

Fang Yuan smiled slightly and pointed to the TV that was playing aerospace news.

"Are you proud of the success of China's manned space landing on the moon?"

Ma Haowen was stunned, then nodded with a smile.

As he spoke, Fang Yuan turned his hand again.

"Not only you are proud, but everyone in the entire motherland is proud of it, and the aerospace project that makes you proud was created in my hands, and even the things that were researched during the creation of the spaceship have now been compiled into some university textbooks."

"Do you think it's worth it?"

Fang Yuan opened his arms and looked at Ma Haowen with a smile, and the smile on Ma Haowen's face gradually unfolded completely.

"Alas, I haven't seen you for half a lifetime, and you still haven't changed!"

Ma Haowen suddenly sighed heavily and slapped Fang Yuan's shoulder.

"Oh. Why hasn't it changed? ”

Wang Xinyu brought the last dish to the table, stepped forward and hugged Ma Haowen's arm, and asked curiously.

"It's been half a lifetime, and when it comes to pretending to be forced, I still can't pretend to be him!"

Wang Xinyu was stunned for a moment, and immediately glanced at Ma Haowen fiercely.

"Hahaha, by the way, tell me why you two were together in the first place?"

Fang Yuan laughed out loud at this time, and then suddenly looked at Ma Haowen and Wang Xinyu.

"yes, I'm curious, too!"

Zhang Ya, who had set up the dishes and chopsticks, also held Fang Yuan's left hand and asked curiously.

"It's very simple, he likes me, and I like him."

Ma Haowen pinched his chopsticks and said.

"It's as simple as that?"

Fang Yuan opened his eyes, what is the difference between saying this sentence and not saying it?

Hearing Fang Yuan say this, Ma Haowen lowered his head and thought about it again.

"Oh, one more thing."

"What?"

"We both had ID cards on us at the time."

"Yo, Happiness Hotel?"

Fang Yuan raised his wine glass and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said.

"Hahaha......"

All three laughed, raised their glasses, and touched them gently.

……………………………………

Life is like a ruthless knife that changes the way we look

Youth is like a rushing river

If you don't come back, it's too late to say goodbye

……

A song of old brother: "Old boy", do you remember?

Listen to it.
