Chapter 626: Chapter 595: A Heart Filled with Awe, Unwillingly_1

Zhou Yuan Chao heard this and was somewhat amused.

"Chief Engineer Sun, you’re a scientific and technical worker, why would you believe in feudal superstitions?" Zhou Yuan Chao didn’t understand; they were staunch materialists and didn’t believe in such feudal dregs.

Chief Engineer Sun shook his head and said, "I am an atheist, but there are some things that science can’t explain, so we must maintain a sense of awe to continue to innovate and advance. You are young and speak recklessly, which is not good."

Aunt Li twisted Zhou Yuan Chao’s ear and scolded, "You, remember to not always be so conceited."

At that moment, He Tiantian came out of the kitchen.

Seeing He Tiantian, both Aunt Li and Chief Engineer Sun were taken aback.

Aunt Li turned to Zhou Yuan Chao and said, "If you want to find such a beautiful wife, Yingjie is right, you’re doomed to remain a bachelor."

"Haha!" Huo Yingjie laughed out loud, "Tiantian, this is the leader from the research institute, our elder, Chief Engineer Sun, Aunt Li."

Upon seeing the two respectable elders, He Tiantian bowed and greeted, "Chief Engineer Sun, Aunt Li, hello!"

"Good, good!" Aunt Li stepped forward and took He Tiantian’s plump little hand, "One look and you can tell she will bring good fortune, perfectly matched with Yingjie, a match made in heaven."

Chief Engineer Sun smiled and said, "This isn’t the workplace, no need to call me Chief Engineer Sun, call me Uncle Sun."

"Uncle Sun." He Tiantian called out, "Brother Yingjie, you entertain Uncle Sun, Aunt Li, Zhou Yuan Chao, I’ll go make two more dishes, and then we can have dinner."

"Okay!" Huo Yingjie laughed, leading them to the stone table under the tree to cool off.

He Tiantian went into the kitchen, found the tea leaves and teapot, and began brewing and serving tea for everyone.

"This is wild mountain tea, it tastes good. Uncle Sun, Aunt Li, please try some," He Tiantian said with a smile as she poured the tea for everyone.

The fragrance of the tea leaves wafted through the air with the steam.

"This really smells delicious," Chief Engineer Sun said, "I must savor it."

At that time, Zhou Yuan Chao walked over to the crib and saw two little babies sound asleep, one covered with a red blanket and the other with a blue one.

The plump little babies were adorable.

Watching them, Aunt Li marveled, "Oh my, as expected of twins of mixed sex, they look so alike!"

"Yes, so white and plump, how adorable," Zhou Yuan Chao said, "Aunt Li, after we go back, you can set me up again, I won’t be picky anymore. I’m worried that by the time the Boss’s kids are running around, I’ll still be unmarried."

"Hehe, don’t be in a hurry. Finding a partner requires fate," He Tiantian said, bringing out two plates of food from the kitchen upon hearing Zhou Yuan Chao’s words, trying to kindly advise him, "If it hasn’t worked out, it’s simply because fate hasn’t arrived yet."

"Tiantian is right, when fate comes, nothing can stop it," Chief Engineer Sun said, "Don’t rush it, take your time. Rather than hurrying to find someone unsuitable, it’s better to stay single!"

Zhou Yuanchao couldn’t help but laugh and cry, not knowing whose advice to follow!

"Alright, if you don’t like the ones from the research institute, I’ll ask my mom to introduce you to a doctor in the hospital," said Huo Yingjie, "The couples my mom has introduced so far are living happily together, she definitely doesn’t mess up the matchmaking."

Zhou Yuanchao was excited and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Then tonight, I must earnestly ask Aunt Jiang to keep an eye out for me."

"You’re my brother, my wife and children are around a warm stove, how can I let you be lonely!" Yingjie declared loyally, "Getting married will make you more stable! You’re single now, you wouldn’t understand!"

"Yuanchao is more stable than before, but still a bit impulsive, indeed he should settle down and focus," said Chief Engineer Sun, "Yingjie, how was your college entrance exam? Do you really have to go to university? With your abilities, you don’t have to go to college at all!"

The implication of Chief Engineer Sun’s words was that he thought Yingjie going to college was just a waste of time.

Yingjie glanced at his son and daughter who were sleeping and smiled, saying, "Life is short, I want to spend time with my family. Moreover, I also want to study and expand my thinking!"

Chief Engineer Sun wanted to say more, but Aunt Li stopped him.

"Old Sun, I’m not stopping what you’re doing, but you can’t expect everyone to be like you, who disregards everything for their career," Aunt Li said, "Yingjie has suffered so much, just being alive and recovering is a miracle. The nation has lost an outstanding worker like Yingjie, but there are countless other excellent scientists and engineers. But if his wife and children lose Yingjie, for them, it would be like the sky falling down."

Chief Engineer Sun felt very guilty upon hearing these words.

"Ah, I’ve wronged you," said Chief Engineer Sun with shame, "I promised you a good life, but..."

"It’s okay, since we decided to be together, I won’t despise you. Everyone has different choices. Besides, Yingjie is not going to stop working forever; he just wants to study and think more, which is far better than doing some repetitive and outdated experiments in the lab," Aunt Li said, not wanting her husband to be too controlling over his subordinates.

Yingjie’s children are small now, and He Tiantian also took this year’s college entrance exam.

That girl looks smart and is probably going to be admitted to a university. If Yingjie were to work at the Nan City Weapons Research Institute and Tiantian went to college, with such young children, he simply couldn’t leave his family behind.

Yingjie smiled and said, "Chief Engineer Sun, please rest assured! I am not studying to avoid working, but as Aunt Li said, it’s also to broaden my horizons and do better work in the future."

"Good, then I await your return," said Chief Engineer Sun, "The Nan City Research Institute will always have a place for you."

"Thank you, Chief Engineer Sun," Yingjie said. He was still receiving allowances and wages from the Nan City Weapons Research Institute, which greatly helped his life; this was also one of the reasons why Yingjie was so grateful to Chief Engineer Sun.

He Tiantian had finished cooking and brought the dishes to the stone table.

He Tiantian grabbed a bottle of peach wine and a bottle of white liquor, saying, "Yingjie, Yuan Chao, you guys accompany Uncle Sun and Aunt Li for the meal and drinks, I’ll go take care of the children first."

The children were now awake, and after some fussing, they started to wail.

He Tiantian hurriedly grabbed the diapers she had prepared and took Ruimin to the restroom. Fortunately, it was just wet; she washed the baby’s bottom, changed into a fresh diaper snugly, and the little girl felt comfortable and stopped crying.

He Tiantian put Ruimin back in the baby crib and moved a red wooden fish above her to train her eyes.

Ruihua had woken up as well. Seeing his little face turn red, Tiantian guessed he might have pooped and quickly took the child to the restroom.

Indeed, with warm water heated by the sun, she cleaned him with the diaper, then washed his bottom and changed into a dry diaper. Ever since the children came, there was a daily battle with pee and poop!
