A professor's rebirth: I entered Tsinghua University in 1977.

When Liu Hongyi returned this time, the people at the farm clearly treated him differently than before.

Previously, the farm's cadres and workers only treated him as Director Liu's son, and were quite polite to him. Ai Gaofeng, Huang Anping, and others, although they greatly admired him and were grateful to him, only felt that he was quick-witted, mature beyond his years, and would achieve great things in the future. To say that he had any particularly outstanding qualities at this stage, that he was amazing and unparalleled, and that no one could compare to him, would be a stretch.

But now, it's different.

This guy, he can actually design weapons and design such awesome stuff.

Although it was said that Tan Dexi taught well, how long had he been studying with Tan Dexi?

This kind of scientific talent is truly impressive.

Although all revolutionary work is equal and there is no distinction between high and low status, the traditional Chinese concept that "all other professions are inferior except for studying" is deeply ingrained in people's minds and is not just a joke.

Everyone looks up to those who study well and have culture, believing that this is the real ability.

This is especially true in Jingjiang.

If you tell others how smart, sensible and hardworking your son is, they will at most just laugh and give you a few compliments. But if you show him an admission letter from Qinghua University or Peking University, they will be really jealous!

Only in Chu are there talented people, and here they flourish.

I'm not saying this for fun.

After coming out of the health center with Ai Xiaoyu, Liu Hongyi immediately went to the "Team One" dormitory where Huang Anping, Ai Gaofeng and others were.

Liu Chuan took advantage of his position to arrange all the old leaders together.

The farm conditions were just so-so: big houses and large communal sleeping areas.

Wooden boards are placed on a fifty-centimeter-high red brick and cement platform.

A large bunk bed can accommodate more than ten people.

Due to limited conditions, Liu Chuan was unable to make many improvements, but he attached unprecedented importance to disinfection work, which could minimize the occurrence and spread of infectious diseases.

In addition, we should try our best to reduce everyone's workload.

The consequence of this is that after this year's autumn harvest, it will be impossible to complete the public grain task set by superiors.

Fortunately, Liu Chu'an had previously served as the deputy head of the regional agricultural work leading group and had certain connections. Through pleading and persuasion, he handed over another hundred rabbits, thus managing to cover the shortfall and barely get through the situation.

The busiest season is over, and the farm has become quieter.

All that was left was some miscellaneous work like repairing ridges and canals, and the labor intensity was much lower.

Huang Anping and Ai Gaofeng, the veteran chess duo, sat on a large bunk bed playing chess, with Zhao Bolong, Fang Qijun, and others watching. Huang Anping and Ai Gaofeng were equally skilled, but their styles differed greatly.

Ai Gaofeng is good at attacking, while Huang Anping is good at defending. They often have to fight into the endgame, and most of the games end in draws.

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Ai, Uncle Zhao, Uncle Fang..."

Liu Hongyi walked in and greeted everyone present with a smile, uncles and aunts, without any confusion, and did not leave anyone out.

"Yo... Hongyi is back?"

"Come in and sit down, come in and sit down..."

As soon as everyone saw Liu Hongyi, they stopped playing chess and stood up to greet him.

This is very high etiquette.

"Hongyi, what brings you back? I heard you're in a big position at Factory 576 now. Commander Dong of the Provincial Military Region and Commander Yu of the 141st Army both speak highly of you. You're incredibly busy..."

Liu Hongyi smiled and said, "It's a good harvest, isn't it time to eat meat? I came back to have a feast."

Everyone burst out laughing.

Liu Hongyi took out a bag of pastries from his bag, opened it on the big bunk, and smiled as he invited the elders to taste it.

This caused another round of cheers in the dormitory.

No one here is a glutton, and the pastries Liu Hongyi brought were just ordinary ones, which would have been perfectly fine when they were in power. But now at Yanggou Farm, non-staple foods are a luxury for everyone.

It is extremely difficult to eat foods with sugar.

"Uncle Huang, I have good news for you. Brother Yonghui has joined the army."

Liu Hongyi made a special trip to Team One just to tell Huang Anping the good news in person.

"Ah? You really joined the army? Which unit did you join?"

Huang Anping's joy was truly extraordinary.

Huang Anping couldn't rest easy until Huang Yonghui's matter was settled. Thinking about his son returning to the Qiwan Brigade after his injury healed kept him awake all night.

Several times he wanted to ask Liu Chuan to inquire with Liu Hongyi about the progress of the matter, but he felt it was inappropriate to keep bothering a young man like Liu Hongyi, so he could only hold back.

"He went to the 141st Army, Commander Yu's unit. Director Duan spoke to Commander Yu personally, and Commander Yu waved his hand and specially recruited Brother Yonghui into the army."

Yu Donghai was a field army commander and a founding major general. He didn't need to ask anyone for instructions for such a small matter. He could solve it with just one sentence.

Huang Anping was overjoyed and couldn't help but hold Liu Hongyi's hand, saying repeatedly: "Hongyi, thank you so much, thank you so much..."

He knew very well that Duan Weimin and even Donghai were actually doing this for Liu Hongyi's sake.

It is said that the individual howitzer developed by Liu Hongyi is amazing, the first of its kind in the country and the best in the entire army!

Liu Hongyi quickly said modestly, "Uncle Huang, please don't say that. Brother Yonghui and I grew up in the same courtyard. He protected me so many times when I was a child... and Brother Yonghui is a real tough guy. A good man like him should go to the army and be tempered."

Huang Anping opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He just kept patting the back of Liu Hongyi's hand, his face full of emotion.

All fathers are like this, no matter who they are, they will be happy when they praise their sons.

Everyone had heard about Huang Yonghui's story; he had now joined the army. Ai Gaofeng and others congratulated Huang Anping.

At noon, Yangou Farm held a "grand feast," where everyone ate to their heart's content, enjoying braised rabbit, steamed fish, and mushroom soup. White rice was also provided in "unlimited" quantities.

After the autumn harvest, it is customary to have a good meal to reward everyone for their hard work throughout the year.

The entire Yanggou Farm was filled with the aroma of meat and a joyous atmosphere.

Only Chen Aiping, while holding the bowl and eating meat, did not forget to remind everyone.

"Be careful, don't eat too much, don't fill your stomach..."

This is indeed a practical problem.

Overeating will put a huge burden on the stomach and intestines.

Especially for middle-aged and elderly people who eat only bland and watery food all year round, their digestive systems are already very fragile.

Chen Aiping didn't want everyone to finally have a meal of meat, but end up with a bunch of people running to the clinic to get intravenous drips.

Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, with a "creak," a jeep, accompanied by a GAZ truck, rushed into the gate of Yanggou Farm.

A man jumped out of the jeep with a cold look and a dark face.

Everyone looked carefully and was shocked.

It was Liangpingshan who came.
