Chapter 2215: Short story
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
So this was the meaning of the 18 lines of open source software?
Huo Shaoheng had always been calm and composed, and did not show his emotions.
However, at this moment, in front of him was his grandfather, who had died tragically in the Big Bang 19 years ago. Behind him was his mother, who had once been in her prime and had yet to experience those 18 years of painful torture.
He suddenly felt that his life was complete.
If the faint regrets and disappointments of his youth were all for this moment of reunion, even in the virtual reality game, he still felt that it was worth it.
Suppressing the bitterness in his heart, Huo Shaoheng nodded heavily and said, “Old Song, Happy Spring Festival.”
Song Haichuan, who was sitting opposite him, smiled in satisfaction and nodded. “Happy Spring Festival. I want to go with you to celebrate the New Year this year. Is that okay?”
“Of course.”Huo Shaoheng was slightly surprised.
Was this what his grandfather, Song Haichuan, had wanted?
Not only did he want to give his grandson an 18-year-old coming-of-age gift, but he also wanted to celebrate the new year with them?
Was this what the 18 lines of open source software wanted to show?
It was similar to the wish he had buried deep in his heart when he was a teenager..
When the game reached this point, the scene in front of him started to lose its color and gradually became gray and blurry.
Song Haichuan and song Jinning’s images also slowly disappeared.
Huo Shaoheng stood in his study and slowly took off his game helmet.
Huo Shaoheng looked at the computer that had just finished displaying the game Demo on the Blue Screen. He was deep in thought.
..
The next day, Song Jinning woke up and found that Lu Yuan had already woken up.
She looked at her watch. They woke up more than two hours earlier than usual, but she still hurriedly got out of bed to wash up and went to the dining room.
Lu Yuan had already prepared breakfast and placed it on the table.
Song jinning said apologetically, “You woke up so early today. Is there anything else? Why Don’t I Go Alone?”
Lu Yuan smiled and said, “It’s just to accompany you. Eat, we’ll go after you’re done.”
Song Jinning smiled at him and quietly finished her breakfast before driving into the city with Lu Yuan.
The courtyard house on the second ring road of the imperial capital had been passed down from song Jinning’s family for generations. Her name was now written on the property certificate.
However, she had never returned to the city ever since she had suffered a mental breakdown after the failure of the experiment.
Gu Nianzhi had cured her of her illness the year before last, but she had never returned.
She could not bear the sadness and sadness of being touched by the scene.
But this time, she could not escape.
..
Lu Yuan turned the car into a small alley.
The alley was very narrow, but it could still allow a car to drive in one direction. The bluestone road had been built over the years and extended all the way to a light gray gatehouse.
The gray brick walls were covered with green creepers. The Vermillion Gate was already out of paint and looked dark. However, it contrasted beautifully with the bright creeper.
Song Jinning got out of the car and heard a loud pigeon whistle.
She looked up and saw a few gray pigeons flying over the blue sky.
Lu Yuan also got out of the car and walked to song Jinning’s side. He said with emotion, “Is this elder song’s Home?”
Ever since he had worked with song Haichuan, he had never seen him go back to his own home.
Song jinning nodded slightly. “Come in.”
She took out a brass key that had not been used for a long time from her handbag and went to open the old-fashioned lock on the door.
She did not know if the lock was too old or if her hands were not strong enough. She tried several times but could not put the key into the lock.
Lu Yuan looked at it for a while and took the key from her hands. He said gently, “I’ll do it.”
His hands were steady and strong. Soon, the lock was unlocked and he pushed the door open.
The door frame creaked and some dust fell.
Song Jinning didn’t care and immediately walked in.
There was a small patio inside, with a stone table in the middle and three stone stools. There was a well in the southwest corner of the courtyard. It hadn’t been used for many years, and the well had been sealed.
There was a grape rack on the east side of the courtyard, and no one cared for it. The vines had long withered, and a few withered branches on the rack looked like ancient vines.
Song Jinning turned a blind eye to all of this. She walked directly to the main door of her father’s house, pushed the door open, and walked in.
The things inside had almost been emptied. The door was unlocked, and no one came in.
A thick layer of dust had accumulated on the ground. Every time she walked, there was a clear footprint.
Song Jinning walked around the house and soon found an old-fashioned rattan box under the desk by the window. It looked at least fifty years old.
She looked at the rattan box and said faintly, “This is my mother’s dowry. When I was young, I often saw my father sitting alone in the courtyard, rubbing the box with one hand while drinking tea.”
Lu Yuan knew that song Jinning’s mother had passed away early. From the beginning of her memory, she had relied on her father, song Haichuan, to support her. Her father had raised her.
However, this did not mean that she had no feelings for her mother.
On the contrary, under song Haichuan’s influence for many years, song jinning still had a strong admiration for her absent mother.
The rattan box had been caressed countless times, and it had the texture of paste.
She half-squatted down and dragged the rattan box out. She touched the password lock and entered the password.
“This is the lock that my father changed later on. We decided on the password together,”song Jinning said in a low voice, her eyes already starting to moisten.
Lu Yuan did not speak, quietly accompanying her.
Song Jinning took a deep breath and opened the box.
The things inside were very simple. Most of them were her mother’s belongings.
A pearl flower, pearls that had already turned yellow, and a jade comb. The quality of the Jade was very ordinary, with faint cracks.
There were also a few silk handkerchiefs embroidered with words that did not even reach the end of the word.
Then there was a thick stack of letters, written in an old-fashioned envelope with a brush.
On each letter, it was written, “My wife, Huai Zhen, has been appraised.”.
Song jinning said in surprise, “My mother’s name is Huai Zhen. These are the letters my father wrote to My Mother?”
Lu Yuan glanced at them and said,”… These letters have not been mailed.”
There was no stamp from the post office on them, nor were there any stamps on them.
Song Jinning was slightly startled. She looked at them silently for a while and realized that the envelopes of these letters were not sealed. She could not help but pull out the letter paper inside and read it.
“Huaizhen,
how are you?
Ah Ning is three years old today. She asked me where her mother is and emphasized to me not to use those lies to deceive her.
“She’s only three years old, and she already knows what lies are. She’s really smart.”
The letter was very short, just like recording daily trivia. Besides, Song Haichuan was a standard scientist, and he didn’t use too much rhetoric.
Every sentence was simple and unadorned.
Song Jinning couldn’t help but open another letter.
“Huaizhen…”
“Today is your birthday, but unfortunately, I can’t celebrate your birthday anymore.
“But I’ll always remember that every year on your birthday, I’ll Cook you a bowl of longevity noodles.
“You can’t eat it. I’ll eat it for you. It tastes good.”
Song Jinning looked at the letters as if she could see every detail of her and her father’s lives back then. She couldn’t control herself and read the letters one by one.
“Huaizhen…”
Ah Ning was six years old. It was her first day of school. When she came back, she told me that she didn’t want to go to the first grade. She wanted to go to the third grade.
“I brought her to take the jump exam. In the end, she went straight to the fourth grade with full marks.
“If you were still alive, would you be happy to see our daughter so smart?
“I know that you don’t regret giving birth to her, even if it means losing your life.
“I’m very sad to lose you, but I won’t vent my anger on her.
“I love you, and I love the most precious gift you gave me in this world, our daughter.”
Song Jinning’s hand loosened, and the letter slowly fell to the ground. She looked at Lu Yuan with tears streaming down her face, she sobbed and said,”… I don’t know… I thought father only had experiments in his heart… I’ve always followed my father’s example… I’m actually far inferior to him…”
Lu Yuan held her in his arms and comforted her as he helped her put back the letter she had opened.
Just as he was packing up the last letter, another piece of paper fell out from inside. On it were lines of open source software!
They were all handwritten, and it was obvious that they were written in song Haichuan’s handwriting. Lu Yuan’s heart sank as he stared at the piece of paper, unable to take his eyes off it.
