After taking a bus and riding a bicycle at the place where he got off the bus, Fu ran came to a courtyard with black tiles and white walls in front of the quiet lake, facing the rippling water of a river. Such a place is really not available, and it is also priceless in the market. This is a reward given by the state to Mr. Lin, and thanks to his great contribution to the country for so many years, such a gift is naturally rejected for an old revolution like Mr. Lin. however, when people get older, they always have to return to their roots. The whole city of a may never find such a place again, so he finally accepted the organization's arrangement, but he did not accept the gift It means to live only for one hundred years and then return it to the state.

If the ordinary people, there is no reason not to accept, but for people like Lin, such a decision is not unusual.

Fu ran knocks on the door, and a generous looking aunt opens the door. This is old Lin's aunt, who is responsible for taking care of old Lin's food and daily life. He has never been married in his life, and has devoted all his life to it. It can be said that it is really a great achievement.

"Auntie." Fu ran called out, and her aunt gave way.

"It's Miss Ran Ran. Mr. Lin has already explained that he is waiting for you. Come in quickly."

The small courtyard with winding paths leads to secluded scenery. Under the careful care of Mr. Lin, the wind is clear and the clouds are full of green. Everywhere, you can see vigorous vitality, accompanied by colorful flowers. It is really beautiful.

After passing through a small bamboo garden, Fu ran saw an old man sitting beside the stone table.

But the spirit of the old man is excellent, wearing a loose cloth shirt, wearing a pair of presbyopia glasses on his nose, reading the newspaper in his hand.

"Old Lin." Fu ran called out, and the old man over there raised his head and looked at her with a kind smile, "come and come, you're here at the right time. Please read today's newspaper for me."

"Good."

Fu Ran is young and has a good voice. His voice is mellow. When his aunt comes over with tea and fruit, he hears Fu Ran's pronunciation. It seems that spring breeze turns rain into rain. Lin closes his eyes with a smile, which is also a great enjoyment.

After reading the last word, Fu ran put down the newspaper and took a sip of tea. Then he gave Shanglin an indelible look: "Mr. Lin, if there is any newspaper, take it out and I'll read it to you."

"That's all for today. Your voice is not so wasteful. Drink more tea."

"It's OK. It's just a little bit of reading. I'm relieved to see that you are still so healthy."

"That's not true." One side of the aunt can't help but help, "I took care of so many people, Lin's age is really the best I've ever seen."

Such an age and such a body is the best. Unfortunately, time does not wait for a person. The pillars of the country, once in its prime, are really old. Hearing the speech, Mr. Lin sighed: "I'm old. I'm really old. I'm no longer useful. When I retired at the age of 70, I still felt that I was full of energy and could do a lot of things. But now, I really feel that every day is not as good as one day. Ran Ran Ran." Mr. Lin looked at Fu ran with great expectations in his eyes. "Ran Ran Ran, I'm really old. This country is for your young people."

"Don't say that, Mr. Lin. you are in good health."

"In fact, there is no need to care about the length of life. What matters is what you did in this time. Even if I die tomorrow, I will at least have no regrets."

"Mr. Lin, you are right. The important thing in life is not the length, but the width. The most significant thing is what we have done in this time. Thank you for your teaching me again."

Fu Ran's serious attitude amused old Lin: "you child, you are still as serious as before, so I'll rest assured. Speaking of it, I'm looking for you today. I want to ask you for help."

"Well, Mr. Lin, I'll try my best if I can do anything." Old Lin nodded and looked at Fu Ran's eyes. He was more and more satisfied. He was very clear about the origin of the child. What's rare is that Fu Ran is not arrogant and impetuous. He has never taken a shortcut for himself and made it convenient. He can't be satisfied with Fu Ran's learning attitude on the spot You'll stay in a city for more than a month. "

"Well, yes, you say so." "In recent years, the Scientific Research Institute of city a has carried out a research project, which is a key support project of the state. During this period, the project has made breakthrough progress and made major discoveries. It happens that a foreign research group is visiting to discuss and study together, hoping to achieve greater breakthroughs. This is a great good thing for future generations, and the state attaches great importance to it. However, the number of visitors this time is Because the project is still under study and requires a high degree of confidentiality, the requirements for translation talents are much higher. Ordinary people are not competent, but the competent people have jobs on hand. The number of people who can be transferred out is really limited. I can't fight in person, but I think that more people will have more ability. So Ran Ran Ran, can you promise to help me ?”"Of course," Fu ran agreed without thinking about it. "As long as I can do it, I'm bound to do it. But you also said that it's a confidential project. Is my identity appropriate?"

"Yes, why not? You are the one who is going to enter the Ministry of foreign affairs. If you think you are not suitable, who else is suitable?"

Although such a project is really very important, it would be a waste of talent to send someone from the Ministry of foreign affairs. In addition, Fu Ran is not the most suitable candidate for such a project. "Well, I have nothing to do, so I'll learn more." Fu ran agreed after thinking about it. This is a very rare opportunity, and the professional knowledge involved here is something she would never learn in school. This is a real accumulation of experience. Old Lin asked her to

to tell you the truth, in fact, she is still carrying her. With such an opportunity, she will be able to face such an occasion more calmly.

Lin was always very satisfied with Fu Ran's attitude: "if you really encounter any problem that can't be solved, you can come to me, but I believe that you can solve it successfully."

Fu ran said with a smile: "you can rest assured that I will not be polite to you."

"Well, after the business, let's play chess?"

"Well, don't let me down this time."

"That's not necessarily true. Just don't water my old man." On this day, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the wind is light and the clouds are moving. The old and the small talk in the yard from time to time. The older and the smaller.
