All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

It was certainly a happy thing that Yue Wenxuan had acquired a collection of hundreds of years from an aristocratic family. Even with Yue Wenxuan's personality, he had a smile on his face for several days in a row.

The only thing that made him regretful was that he couldn't share such a big surprise with anyone and could only enjoy it alone.

Another new week has arrived. After breakfast, Yue Wenxuan was planning to take a walk by the lake when the fourth brother Yue Hongan suddenly came over with his wife Wang Yutong.

Yue Wenxuan hadn't seen the two children for half a month. Seeing them suddenly come to his house, he asked in surprise:

"Why are you here on Monday? Aren't you going to work today?"

The fourth brother put down the things in his hand and said with a slightly unnatural expression: "We have been working overtime for half a month. The last R&D task has just been completed. The leader has a few days off, so we came here."

"You must have been very busy recently. You both have lost weight and must not have eaten well. What do you want to eat for lunch today? Dad will make it for you."

1961 was the most difficult year. Since the Spring Festival, there has been no pork supply. During this period, the two children joined the scientific research task force and lived and ate at the unit every day. They must not have eaten well. It was a rare opportunity for the two to go home, so Yue Wenxuan must give them a good meal.

The fourth brother pointed to the basket on the ground and said, "Yutong and I performed well in this research and development mission. Our superiors gave us a little reward. It's five kilograms of sweet potato flour in total. I kept two kilograms and brought three pieces for you. Do you think you can use them at noon?"

"Sweet potato vermicelli is a good thing, so of course it can be used. I just so happen to have a piece of bacon at home, so I can make a dish of bacon and vermicelli.

I'll kill another fish and I've got some sauerkraut at home, so I'll make sauerkraut fish.

I just steamed a lot of steamed buns yesterday, which will definitely satisfy your appetite."

Listening to his father enthusiastically arranging the lunch, Yue Hongan's eyes suddenly became moist, and he regretted that he had signed up without discussing it with his father.

Yue Wenxuan's observation ability was very sharp. As soon as the two children came in, he felt that there was something wrong with their expressions. They both seemed to be worried about something.

He originally thought that things might not be going well at work, or that he had a conflict with his boss or colleagues. Now, seeing tears in his son's eyes, he immediately guessed that the matter was much more serious than he expected.

He asked the two children to sit down, and sat opposite them. He asked seriously, "Did something happen? Tell me if there is anything. No matter what difficulties you encounter, your dad will take care of everything for you."

Yue Hongan always thought he was very determined, but he didn't expect that he would be so disappointing. His true colors were exposed before he even opened his mouth.

Wang Yutong secretly grabbed Yue Hongan's hand under the table and gave him an encouraging look.

Yue Hongan calmed down, wiped his eyes, and said, "Dad, the ministry has a particularly important research and development task, and it is necessary to recruit relevant talents from all over the country to join the research and development. This project happens to be my and Yutong's major, so we both signed up.

This project is highly confidential, so I cannot explain it to you in detail. I hope you can understand and support it. "

Yue Wenxuan was silent for a moment. When he spoke again, his voice became a little hoarse. "The research and development site of this project should not be in our Quancheng. Where is it going and how long it will take? Can you tell me these?"

Although this is a simple question, it also involves some secrets that cannot be told.

Yue Hongan hesitated for a moment, organized his words, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly:
"This project is located in a secret base in the west. I don't know the exact location. As for how long it will take, we...we may need to stay there for a long time, maybe several months, or even...even several years or even more than ten years."

Wang Yutong's eyes also turned red at this time. She gently patted the back of Yue Hongan's hand, as if to give him strength, and also as if to give strength to herself.

She raised her head and looked at Yue Wenxuan, her voice slightly choked: "Dad, we know that this may separate us from you for a long time, but this mission is really important. We really want to do something for the country and the people. I hope you can understand."

A complex emotion flashed in Yue Wenxuan's eyes. He understood the intentions of the two children and understood their choice.

He sighed softly, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the blue sky outside, and said in a low and firm voice: "Hongan, Yutong, you are my proudest children. You choose to serve the country. As your father, I am only proud and proud!"

He turned around, walked back to the table, sat down and continued, "Compared to my reluctance, you need to take on more responsibilities and face many difficulties and challenges that you can't imagine.

But I believe in you and support your choice.

No matter where you go, no matter what difficulties you encounter, remember that you are my children and the pride of the Yue family.

I can’t help you solve your work problems, but if you have difficulties in life, feel free to write to me. I have no shortage of cash or food coupons.”

Yue Hongan and Wang Yutong's eyes welled up with tears when they heard this. They knew that their father would be reluctant to let them go, but he was still willing to give them more support and encouragement. They smiled at each other, their eyes full of determination and expectation for the future.

Yue Wenxuan continued, "I won't hold you back, but you have to promise me that no matter how busy you are, you will take good care of yourself. Also, remember to write back often to let me know how you are doing, if we can communicate normally."

Yue Hongan and Wang Yutong nodded repeatedly. They knew that this was their father's concern and expectation for them. Even if their father didn't say it, they would definitely write back often and try their best to take good care of themselves.

The father and his two sons were all in a heavy mood, but they all pretended to be happy, not wanting to show the deep sadness in their hearts.

Yue Wenxuan looked at the two children. Although he felt reluctant, he could only choose to support them when faced with such a major issue.

He stood up, walked to the door of the room, took a deep breath of the not-so-fresh air, as if trying to find an outlet for his mood.

"Okay, you guys sit down for a while, I'll go prepare lunch." There was a barely perceptible tremor in Yue Wenxuan's voice, but he tried to make himself look stronger.

In the kitchen, Yue Wenxuan was busy, the sounds of pots and pans intertwined, as if playing a symphony of farewell. While preparing the ingredients, he recalled the time he spent with the children, the laughter and the warm scenes, as if they had just happened.

Yue Wenxuan's cooking skills have always been very good. He was busy on the chopping board, and from time to time he instructed Lao Si and Wang Yutong to help. The room was filled with the aroma of bacon stewed with vermicelli, and the delicious pickled fish, which made people's mood gradually become happy.

Although Yue Hongan and Wang Yutong were in a heavy mood, they were also infected by their father's optimism. They tried not to think about the upcoming separation, but to cherish every minute and every second with their father. They helped cut vegetables, wash dishes, and chatted with their father about family matters, as if they wanted to finish everything and explain everything clearly.

Originally, Yue Wenxuan only planned to make two dishes: stewed vermicelli with bacon and pickled fish, but since the two children were about to go on a long journey, he no longer had so many concerns. While the children could still eat his cooking, he would definitely make a few more dishes.

In addition to the two dishes that had already been agreed upon, he also made a dish of roasted eggplant and minced pork with green beans based on the existing ingredients.

Unfortunately, it happened too suddenly and he was not prepared at all. Even if he wanted to take out more ingredients, he had no suitable excuse.

He also wanted to make two more meat dishes to supplement the nutrition of the two children. This time he could only do it this way. Next time he must prepare in advance and make sure the two children have enough to eat before leaving.

Because the third child goes home for lunch at noon, Yue Wenxuan always puts the meal on the table on time every day, and today is no exception.

Just as the dishes were set, the footsteps of the third brother Yue Hongmin were heard at the door.

He had just got home from get off work and smelled the tempting aroma of food as soon as he entered the door. A look of surprise immediately appeared on his face. He felt that he was going to have a feast again today.

However, when he saw his younger brother and sister-in-law sitting at the table, and his father's slightly heavy expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt that something might have happened.

"Dad, Hongan, Yutong, what's wrong with you?" Yue Hongmin asked puzzledly, with a hint of nervousness in his voice.

This matter certainly cannot be concealed, and there is no need to conceal it. Yue Wenxuan sighed and simply repeated the decision of the fourth and third sons to the third son.

After hearing this, the smile on Yue Hongmin's face disappeared immediately. He couldn't believe this fact.

His younger brother and sister-in-law were actually going to leave home and go to an unknown place far away to carry out a mission that might not allow them to return for several years or even more than ten years.

For him, this was a very distant thing, but it happened to him today, which made it a little difficult for him to accept.

"This... How can this be? How can you just leave like this?" Yue Hongmin's voice was trembling. The two brothers had never been apart for such a long time before, and he couldn't accept this sudden news.

Yue Hongan and Wang Yutong looked at each other, their eyes full of reluctance and determination. They also didn't want to be separated from their families, but they knew in their hearts that the importance of this mission far exceeded their personal feelings, and they had to go!
"Third brother, we don't want this to happen either, but...but the country and the people need us." Yue Hongan's voice was low and firm.

"But...but what will happen to Dad after you leave? You two are going to a far place without any relatives. What if something happens?" Yue Hongmin's voice was full of reluctance and worry.

Yue Wenxuan stood up, walked to the third brother, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice:
"Hongmin, you are the third child in the family and have always been a responsible child. Now, your brother and sister-in-law are going to contribute to the country. This is their honor and our pride. You should support them instead of questioning their decision."

Yue Hongmin looked up at his father's determined eyes and fell silent. It wasn't that he didn't support or understand, but he just couldn't bear to be separated. The news came too suddenly, and he found it a little hard to accept.

Feeling the determination in his father's eyes, he knew that his father had made the decision, so he said nothing more.

The third child took a deep breath and said, "I understand, Dad. I will support them and take good care of the family."

Yue Wenxuan patted the third brother's shoulder and motioned him to sit down and eat.

However, the atmosphere of the meal was unusually heavy, as if shrouded by an invisible haze. Everyone's face was filled with reluctance, but they all tried their best to keep smiling, trying to use this method to cover up the sadness in their hearts.

On the table, the bacon stewed with vermicelli was steaming hot, and the pickled fish was so delicious that it made people salivate. However, in front of these delicacies, everyone seemed a little absent-minded.

Yue Hongan and Wang Yutong exchanged glances from time to time, as if they were encouraging each other, and as if they were sharing the pain of the impending separation.

Yue Wenxuan ate his meal in silence, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He was proud of the children's courage and responsibility, but also worried about the difficulties and challenges they would face. He knew that this separation might last for several years or even more than ten years, which was undoubtedly a huge test for a family.

The third brother Yue Hongmin tried hard to adjust his mood. He wanted to infect everyone with his optimism and strength. He made jokes from time to time to make the atmosphere more relaxed. However, in this heavy atmosphere, his efforts did not seem to have much effect.

The meal was unusually long, and everyone seemed to be savoring the bitterness of parting. Finally, the meal was over and everyone put down their chopsticks.

Yue Wenxuan stood up and began to clean up the dishes. He knew that this meal might be the last meal for him and his children for a long time to come, and he wanted to engrave this memory deeply in his heart.

The children also joined in, all wanting to keep themselves busy.

After clearing the dishes, Yue Wenxuan called the children to his side and said earnestly: "Hongan, Yutong, Hongmin, I know you all have a lot to say, but it's getting late and the third child has to go back to work, so I will just say a few words."

He paused, his eyes fell on the fourth child, "First of all, I want to be proud of your choice. You can contribute to the country and the people. This is what we should do as Chinese people.

Secondly, I want to tell you that no matter where you go, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you must remember that you are the children of the Yue family and the pride of me, Yue Wenxuan. I will always support you and care about you, and I will always be your biggest backer. "

Yue Wenxuan's words made the three children's eyes red. They knew that this was their father's deepest blessing and expectation for them. The fourth child couldn't help but hold his father's right hand tightly, holding it very hard, as if he wanted to express his gratitude and reluctance in this way.

At this warm yet heavy moment, Yue Wenxuan said again: "Hongan, Yutong, you must be careful to take care of your health when you go to work in the west this time. I know the conditions there are difficult, even beyond your imagination, you must be fully prepared mentally.

However, since this is your own choice, you must stick to it. I will wait for you to come back home."

Yue Hongan and Wang Yutong nodded repeatedly. They felt as if a huge rock was blocking their chests, making them so uncomfortable that they couldn't speak.
