Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

Although I know that Li Tianyi must be hiding something, now that he is home safely, nothing else matters.

After Xiaoxue and Li's mother put their minds at ease, they started taking gifts out of the suitcases. They bought a lot of things when they went to Gangcheng this time. They originally took three suitcases when they went, but when they came back, they had become five.

Mother Li was tinkering with gifts with her two children, while Xiaoxue was cooking. They had gone on a trip before and gave the nanny a holiday. The nanny would not be back until tomorrow, so Xiaoxue had to cook today's meal herself.

Li Tianyi did not participate in the activities downstairs. He went into his study and took a box from the bookshelf. The box contained a new model of laser watch.

Li Tianyi put the new watch on his hand and put the old one in a box. He hasn't figured out what to do with this watch yet. As for giving it to someone else, Li Tianyi has not considered it, or has not considered it now.

Time flies and it's time to go back to work. Li Tianyi told Xiaoxue that he might be busy for a while and he won't be home during this time. As for the gifts for home, Xiaoxue and the others can arrange it themselves.

Arriving at the laboratory, Li Tianyi held a meeting with the team members, went over the tasks assigned by his superiors, and then distributed the information he had compiled about laser guns. He did not intend to participate in the research and development personally, but only to give guidance to the researchers at critical moments. His main task was to make laser watches.

What he had said to the elders in the office before was not false. It was indeed very time-consuming to make laser watches.

Li Tianyi had the necessary materials delivered to the Military Commission, and he began to draw the blueprints of the laser watch.

The two laser watches in his hands did not have any blueprints. They were made entirely based on the information in his head. Now that he wanted to make many of them, Li Tianyi felt that he still had to draw the blueprints.

After receiving the list of materials submitted by Li Tianyi, the Military Commission immediately arranged for the materials to be transported to him. On Li Tianyi's side, it took him nearly a week just to draw the drawings.

Of course, during this period his students would come to him for help when they encountered difficult problems, and he patiently explained the problems to them, which also took some time.

After his drawings were completed, the materials mobilized by the Military Commission had also been delivered, and Li Tianyi began his busy work in his small laboratory.

His laboratory is fully equipped with tools and advanced machinery. Generally, whatever parts he needs, he makes them himself.

The reason why laser watches are difficult to mass-produce is that, firstly, the components here require very sophisticated manufacturing, which can only be produced by highly skilled masters; secondly, Li Tianyi does not want laser watches to flood the market, which would cause an uncontrollable situation.

In this way, Li Tianyi took half a month to make the first laser watch. As soon as he made it, Li Tianyi called the Military Commission. Soon the secretary of the great elder came to the laboratory with a team of guards. Li Tianyi handed him a small box. The secretary thanked him and took people away.

Time passed quickly and three months went by in a blink of an eye. Li Tianyi had been busy in his small laboratory and would occasionally come out to give lectures to his students.

Although there has not been much progress on the laser gun, the direction has been found. Now all that remains is to fill in the content so that the framework can be complete.

Li Tianyi's work was nearing completion. He finally breathed a sigh of relief after he handed in the last watch.

He hadn't been home for nearly 4 months, so he arranged his affairs at the institute and left with a little money.

This year is already 1996, and he is already 56 years old. According to the national legal age, he will retire in four years, but he doesn't know whether the country will let him go by then.

Sitting in the car, Li Tianyi thought a lot. Time passed unknowingly. The car entered the compound and soon stopped in front of his house.

Li Tianyi got out of the car. Xiaoxue heard the sound of the car and came out of the house. Seeing Li Tianyi coming back, Xiaoxue walked towards the gate happily.

"Brother Tian, ​​you are a rare guest. How come you have time to come to my place today?"

Li Tianyi looked at his wife with a weird tone, knowing that Xiaoxue must be resentful for not coming home for such a long time, so Li Tianyi hurried over to hold Xiaoxue's hand and said softly, "My dear wife, what are you talking about? This is my home, how can I not come back?"

"Huh." Xiaoxue rolled her eyes, "You still know this is your home? Look how long it has been since you went home."

Li Tianyi did not dare to respond, but smiled and went into the house with Xiaoxue. When they got into the house, they did not see the old man and the old lady. Li Tianyi asked Xiaoxue, and Xiaoxue said that the old man and the old lady went to the park to play and would probably be back for a while.

Li Tian nodded to show that he understood. Xiaoxue asked Li Tianyi to rest for a while, and she went into the kitchen to ask Aunt Zhang to cook some dishes that Li Tianyi liked.

Although Xiaoxue complained, she actually cared about Li Tianyi in her heart. She knew that Li Tianyi was very tired and busy outside, so he didn't go home for several months. Xiaoxue felt distressed, but she had no choice. This was Li Tianyi's job and pursuit, and Xiaoxue couldn't say anything to make Li Tianyi give up.

Soon Li's father and mother came back. The two old people were very happy to see their son come home. They are almost 80 years old now and of course they hope to have children and grandchildren around them. Their second son and grandson are living abroad and they don't have much hope. The two grandsons on the eldest son's side are busy with work and often have no time to come home. There are only two great-grandchildren at home to entertain them.

Of course, my daughter often comes back to visit me, but my grandson is a cause for concern as he still hasn’t mentioned a partner.

The younger sister was very worried about this and she often nagged her husband about it. Finally, Geng Jinzhong was fed up with the nagging and had no choice but to cause trouble for those two brats.

As a result, my younger sister’s two sons often don’t come home because they are afraid that their mother will nag them.

Soon the two children finished school. When Li Tianyi saw them, he remembered something he had neglected for a long time, which was to transfer them to another school. However, he still needed to discuss this matter with the Military Commission.

Thinking of this, Li Tianyi decided to go to the Military Commission tomorrow. During the meal, Li Tianyi asked about An An and Dou Dou's situation. Xiao Xue told him what she knew. These two couples of parents were very good. They only gave birth to children but did not raise them. After giving birth, they sent the children to their parents and lived a free and easy life.
