A powerful country in scientific research

The food was ready, and Su Ran and Su Lei served it on the table. This was Su Ran's first meal since she returned. Su Lei really wanted to cook a big meal for his sister, but his ability was limited, so he could only make a table of home-cooked meals.

The three of them sat at the table, and Su Lei said a little embarrassedly: "Sister, I only know how to cook some home-cooked dishes, so that's it, don't despise me."

Su Ran curled the corners of her lips, "It's so rich, how could I dislike it? Wow, it looks delicious, Xiao Lei's cooking skills are really good."

Su Lei's mouth curled even wider when he heard this.

The family sat around the dining table, the atmosphere was warm and pleasant. Su's mother kept putting food into Su Ran's bowl, Su Ran ate while praising Su Lei, and Su Lei smiled.

Su Lei, who was immersed in the wonderful atmosphere of being praised, suddenly had an idea in his mind and realized that he had not asked the real question. So he looked at his sister with curiosity and asked, "Sister, how is the research going?"

Su Ran nodded, with a proud gleam in his eyes, "Yes, we have entered the final stage of clinical trials. If everything goes well, it will be put into use soon."

Su Lei's eyes lit up after hearing this, "That's amazing! Sister, what you did is really great."

Su Ran was working on a CT machine. During one phone call, Su Ran told her mother and brother about it. Su Ran had been doing this research before, so Jiang Hongmei and Su Lei both knew about it. They were very happy for her when they saw that she had finally completed the project.

Jiang Hongmei looked at her son with a smile and said, "Then you should learn from your sister, study hard, and make contributions to the country in the future."

Su Lei nodded heavily, "Okay! I will!"

"Of course, your grandparents would be very happy if they knew you were back. Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, let's go back to Jiangshui Brigade~ Of course, you haven't been there for a long time. During the New Year, your uncle, aunt, cousin and others were talking about you."

Su Ran smiled and said, "Mom, I called my grandparents this afternoon. They know I'm back."

Jiang Hongmei: "That's good, that's good. Didn't they say they would come over to take a look? Oh, if they come, can we still go back to Jiangshui Brigade to celebrate the Lantern Festival?"

Listening to his mother's words, Su Lei said indifferently: "What's the big deal? If grandma and grandpa come, we can stay here, or we can go back together. It's so convenient for us to go back to the team now."

Jiang Hongmei nodded with a smile, "That's right, okay, let's do this for now. I'll call your grandparents tomorrow morning. If they don't come, we'll just take a car and leave."

Su Ran and Su Lei naturally had no objection, and the arrangements for tomorrow were set.

After dinner, Jiang Hongmei hurriedly called her leader to ask for leave.

After Su Ran and Su Lei cleaned up the table and the kitchen, they each went back to their bedrooms.

Late at night, Su Ran returned to her familiar room, lay on the bed, and thought about everything that happened today. She smiled unconsciously. That night, she slept very soundly.

......

The next day, Jiang Hongmei got up early and busily prepared for the day.

She looked at the watch and saw that it was time to go to work, so she hurriedly called the Jiangshui Brigade Office. There was only this one phone in the Jiangshui Brigade, so if she wanted to contact Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang, she could only do so through here.

After the phone rang for a while, it was finally picked up.

"Hello, this is the Jiangshui Brigade office."

Jiang Hongmei recognized that it was Liu Guihua who was speaking, and said anxiously, "Sister-in-law, I am Hongmei."

"Hongmei, why are you calling me at this time?" Liu Guihua asked curiously.

Jiang Hongmei explained: "Sister-in-law, can you ask my parents to come over and answer the phone, or if you are free, you can tell them for me. We are going back home to celebrate the festival today, and we want them to wait for us at home. It's better to go now, because if we go too late, I'm afraid they will go out."

Liu Guihua agreed readily.

"Okay, I have nothing to do right now, I'll go tell them now."

Jiang Hongmei said gratefully: "Okay, thank you sister-in-law, thank you for your trouble."

Liu Guihua smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite to me?"

After hanging up the phone, Liu Guihua hurried to Jiang's house. Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang were packing up to go out. When they heard the knock on the door, Grandma Jiang opened the door in confusion and saw Liu Guihua.

Grandma Jiang was even more surprised. Why did Guihua come here at this time? Shouldn't she be in the brigade? Although she was very confused, Grandma Jiang still invited her into the house.

As soon as Liu Guihua came in and saw Grandpa Jiang, she quickly told them what Jiang Hongmei said on the phone.

After Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang heard this, they looked at each other and Grandpa Jiang sighed, "It was all in vain."

Grandma Jiang smiled and rolled her eyes at him: "What's wrong with cleaning it up for nothing? I'm happy to do it for nothing."

Then she looked at Liu Guihua with a smile and said, "Guihua, we got it. Thank you for making the trip. I'll get you a glass of water so you can rest for a while."

Liu Guihua waved her hand and said, "I don't want to drink anymore. I'm going back. Aunt, you guys go get busy."

"Then I won't send you off. Come over when you have time."

Liu Guihua responded with a smile and left.

After Liu Guihua left, Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang put back the things that were originally going to be taken to Hai City. After packing up, Grandma Jiang went to the kitchen and started preparing lunch, and Grandpa Jiang followed to help.

Their daughter, granddaughter and great-grandson will be here soon, so they have to prepare well.

"Old man, do you think we should cook a few more dishes that Ranran likes?" Grandma Jiang asked while picking vegetables.

Grandpa Jiang smiled and nodded: "Of course, Ranran has been away from home for so long, and she was not here during the Chinese New Year. She must be homesick and tired from working outside. We have to make more delicious food to nourish her."

After hearing this, Grandma Jiang sighed, "Yeah, how can you not be tired when working outside? That girl is used to reporting good news but not bad news. She keeps everything to herself and doesn't tell us."

Grandpa Jiang also sighed, "Of course she is just too sensible, so we should love her well."

Grandma Jiang wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "Yes, Ranran won't be staying in Hai City for long this time. We have to give her something good to eat. Go to the supply and marketing cooperative in Qinghe Brigade and see if there is any beef or pig's trotters. Buy some quickly. The more the better. I'm going to make a big meal today!"

Grandpa Jiang smiled, took off his apron, and replied, "Okay, I'll go take a look."
