Chapter 2228: Poor People Had No Dignity, Poor Countries Had No StatusChapter 2228 Poor People Had No Dignity, Poor Countries Had No Status
Turning at a bend, Ye Jian saw two old folks in front, holding hands. The old man with a rickety but elegant temperament walked slowly.
At the feet of the two old folks was a pair of puppies happily wagging their tails and taking small steps. Sometimes they chased the feet of the two old folks, sometimes they rushed to the front happily and then returned to the two old folks, shaking their heads and wagging their tails as if they were playing with the two elders.

Old Tang is the first generation of computer research core scientists in our country, and Professor Su is a senior engineer who completed magnetic core memory. The two veterans major in R&D computer independence in our country. They don’t have any kids.”
“It’s not just Old Tang and Professor Su; almost none of the scientists and senior engineers who live here have any children. They have silently dedicated their lives to scientific development in our country.”
Ye Jian, who had never heard of it, had forgotten where she was going and was so shocked that she didn’t know what to say upon listening to Li Jinnian’s explanation.
As the car passed by the two elders, Ye Jian turned her head and looked at the two rickety, but extraordinarily tall figures that accompanied each other with her eyes were full of respect.
Xia Jinyuan, who withdrew his gaze, said solemnly, “Poor people have no dignity; poor countries have no status.”
“At that time, our country did not have the ability to manufacture weapons ourselves. Even the weapons used by the military were produced by overseas manufacturers. Under such circumstances, our older generation of scientists worked hard to realize the dream of our country becoming a strong country and having a strong army. If you ask outsiders, they would say our scientists are the most careful and the most humble.”
“At the very beginning of the 1950s, the big country that originally helped our country suddenly left, leaving behind a pile of drawings that were being burned. To rescue the drawings from the fire, our old scientists did not dare to use water to extinguish the fire. They reached into the fire to snatch the drawings back and put them back bit by bit. They knelt to the ground and worked together carefully.”
“Their actions were not for the drawings but to pick up their dignity. From passive to autonomous, from dependence to self-confidence, the reason why great powers can rise is because of so many great scientists like Sir Fu.”

“Ye Jian, we suffer so much less now compared to the life those old scientists once experienced. Do you still think that you have tough hurdles that you can’t get through? Do you still think that you can’t take the next step?”
Ye Jian shook her head. Her eyes were sore. No, she no longer felt that there were any hurdles she couldn’t go through now. Compared with the sufferings of those old scientists, what hurdles could she not overcome?
“Devil King, I am really not sure whether your uncle is my father or not, so I can’t call the old Sir “Grandpa” later, but I will cooperate with you to see if I am really his granddaughter.”
The car had just slowly entered a flat asphalt pavement extending from the main road, and Ye Jian’s sudden words caused Li Jinnian, who was caught off guard, to slam on the brakes.
No one had expected that he would stop the car violently, so the two sitting behind were pushed forward by force. If the two of them were not strong enough to support themselves, their faces would have hit the back of the car seats.
“Devil King, please drive well.” Xia Jinyuan took Ye Jian’s hand and sat down tightly; he joked, “I am a wounded man. You can’t deliberately injure me just because I am now Ye Jian’s boyfriend.”
