Christmas second day, Jingling City rare snowing. 圣诞节的第二天,金陵市罕见的下起了雪。 Although has not had anything matter that is worth waiting, because associated from the Christmas to Santa Claus, before Lu Zhou thought about itself, actually in Princeton the fireplace of that house, whenever since New Jersey had the heavy snow time, he will then move to the living room from the study room the work place, backed on the sofa to sit on the rug before fireplace, released for flight own train of thought in the exploration to the truth wanders about in the endless universe. 虽然并没有发生什么值得期待的事情,但因为从圣诞节联想到了圣诞老人,陆舟倒是想起了自己以前在普林斯顿的那栋房子的壁炉,每当新泽西州下起大雪的时候,他便会将工作的地点从书房搬到客厅,背靠着沙发坐在壁炉前的地毯上,放飞自己的思绪在无尽的宇宙以及对真理的探索中徜徉。 Although is also far from the age that starts to remember past times. 虽然还远远没有到开始怀旧的年龄。 But looks at the snowflake that out of the window falls gently, Lu Zhou truly somewhat thinks. 但看着窗外飘落的雪花,陆舟确实有些想念了。 Sits in the living room, clamped the minced meat and gravy-filled steamed dumplings to dip to scatter the vinegar small dish of shredded ginger with the chopsticks, then forced in the mouth, looks on out of the window pinon is hanging silver white, he did not have the indication to say suddenly. 坐在客厅里,用筷子夹着汤包蘸了蘸撒着姜丝的醋碟,然后塞进了嘴里,看着窗外矮松树上挂着的银白,他忽然毫无征兆地开口说道。 „I plan to install a fireplace at home.” “我打算在家里装个壁炉。” Stood looks around the eye in Wang Peng of living room, is thinking deeply about asking. 站在客厅的王鹏四处看了眼,思索着问道。 „Is the heating is insufficient?” “是供暖不足吗？” Lu Zhou looked at his one eyes strangely: „Your mentality is very strange, why was much more certain can install the fireplace.” 陆舟奇怪地看了他一眼:“你的思路很奇怪,为什么一定得冷了才能装壁炉。” Gawked slightly, Wang Peng made a helpless expression, „I spoke thoughtlessly asked what need...... had me to help?” 微微愣了下,王鹏做了个无奈的表情,“我只是随口一问……有什么需要我这边帮忙的吗？” Lu Zhou ridiculed one saying: „That does not use, only if you will tell me you to build a wall.” 陆舟揶揄了一句道:“那倒不用,除非你告诉我你会砌墙。” Although is only a joke, has not actually thought that Wang Peng took seriously unexpectedly, seriously after pondering a while, replied seriously. 虽然只是一句玩笑,却没想到王鹏居然当真了,认真思考了一会儿之后,一本正经地回答。 „That side General Staff Headquarters has this expert in aspect actually.” “总参那边倒是有这方面的专家。” Lu Zhou: „...... Are you small dingdong?” 陆舟:“……你们是小叮当吗？” How any gadget has. 怎么啥玩意儿都有。 Wang Peng: „......?” 王鹏:“……？” Finally, the matter of fireplace, Lu Zhou has not troubled the person of General Staff Headquarters, but related gave the repair design firm that Jinling Higher Research institute repaired initially, making them help complete from the design to the entire job of installment. 最终,壁炉的事情,陆舟还是没有麻烦总参的人,而是联系了当初给金陵高等研究院装修的装修设计公司,让他们帮忙完成了从设计到安装的全部工作。 After all for this small matter takes the national resources, really does not have that necessity. 毕竟为了这点小事儿占用国家资源,实在是没有那个必要。 Two things that Lu Zhou does not like especially, its one is to then trouble others, its two then to the small matter wage a war. 陆舟尤其不喜欢的两件事情,其一便是麻烦别人,其二便是为了一点小事儿而大动干戈。 In the work is works, besides the relatively intelligent point and charming point, he never thinks oneself and others have what difference, needs so excessively to look after specially. 工作上是工作上,除了相对聪明一点和帅气一点之外,他从来不认为自己和别人有什么不同,需要如此过度的特殊关照。 If others can treat him with the attitude of average person, he will instead feel more relaxed. 如果其他人能以普通人的态度待他,他反而会感到轻松一些。 But perhaps, this is also one of the he alone until now reasons. 而或许,这也是他单身至今的原因之一。 After receiving the Lu Zhou call, that repair design firm could be said as quite attaches great importance. 在接到了陆舟的电话之后,那个装修设计公司可以说是相当的重视了。 Although compared to over a hundred more than ten million big projects, only fireplace, but is one to cannot the small -scale business, but this repair design firm displayed the highest-level professional standard and attitude, almost on the same day then the designer and work team will send in the Lu Zhou family/home, before that night, then delivered to Lu Zhou there several alternative design paper and offers. 虽然相对于上百上千万的大项目来说,区区一座壁炉而已,只不过是一笔小到不能再小的小生意,但这家装修设计公司还是拿出了最高水准的专业水平和态度,几乎当天便将设计师和项目团队派到了陆舟的家中,当天晚上之前便将几份备选的设计图纸和报价送到了陆舟那里。 And has the Victoria style style, there is a modern brief style, classical style that the red brick that as well as that type restores the old relatively builds, a total of 15 nested design plan, completely according to living room's decoration topological design, even each nested design plan also throws in one set of manual wool rug. 其中有维多利亚式风格的,也有现代简约风格的,以及那种相对复古的红砖砌成的古典风格,总共15套设计方案,全部都是按照客厅本身的装潢布局设计的,甚至每套设计方案还附赠一套手工羊毛地毯。 Looks the design proposal that these performance-to-price ratio high letting people do not even want to negotiate, Lu Zhou even suspected, does his single Shengyi let alone unable to make money, cannot do well must lose money. 看着那些性价比高的让人甚至不想砍价的设计方案,陆舟甚至都怀疑,做他这一单生意别说是赚不了钱,搞不好还得赔钱。 Although stands in a standpoint of consumer does not have the truth that voluntarily requests to rise in prices, but looks that less than 5000 also deliver the offer of rug, Lu Zhou of solid being able to pass conscience pass/test could not bear the opens the mouth finally. 虽然站在一名消费者的立场上没有主动要求涨价的道理,但看着那个不到五千还送地毯的报价,实在过不去良心这道关的陆舟终于还是忍不住开口了。 „Really doesn't have the issue cheaply?” “这么便宜真的没问题吗？” The clerk little elder sister who that is responsible for with the Lu Zhou discussion, on the face brings to conform to the smiling face that the society anticipates, the politeness and warmly and Lu Zhou said. 那名负责和陆舟洽谈的业务员小姐姐,脸上带着符合社会期待的笑容,礼貌且热情地和陆舟说道。 „Does not have the issue, this you felt relieved, you were my department's important cooperative partner, we cannot certainly the pit you.

Your father crossed several years also to retire again, now all day idles in the unit is also being all right to do, every day was to drink tea to read a newspaper, was not I urges him to jog every day the exercise body, now referred to being uncertain to put on weight what appearance. I telephone to hear your sound, hasn't disturbed you to work?” “不用担心你爸妈,我们好着呢。你爸再过个几年也要退休了,现在整天在单位里闲着也没事做,每天就是喝茶看报,不是我每天催着他去跑步锻炼身体,现在指不定得发福成什么样子了。我打电话过来就是想听听你的声音,没有打扰到你工作吧？” Lu Zhou said with a smile: „How can?

If busy, I and your father took care of you to be good.” 方梅数落了一句道:“可别这么说,你现在是事业上升期,不用把精力放在我和你爸身上,我们的身体也不需要孩子来操心。不过我希望你忙是忙,但还是别太累到自己了,身体永远是放在第一位的,不管多么重要的事情都没有自己的身体重要……对了,今年过年的前后你忙不忙？要是忙的话,我和你爸过来照顾你好了。” „Doesn't use, you may this, I not say is not busy!” One hear of father old ladies planned that takes care of itself, does not want to say to Lu Zhou that they put to trouble hastily, „this year was also happen to catches up had free time at the end of last year, rare, I came back to celebrate the new year.” “不用不用,你们可千万别这样,我都说了不忙了！”一听老爹老娘打算过来照顾自己,不想给他们添麻烦的陆舟连忙说道,“今年也算是正好赶上年底有空,难得没什么事儿,我还是回来过年好了。” Fang Mei sighed: „Your this child anything is good, was too polite.” 方梅叹了口气说:“你这孩子什么都好,就是太客气了。” Lu Zhou does not know whether to laugh or cry to say. 陆舟哭笑不得道。 „Mother, your saying said what...... I and are you polite? So many years have not returned to one's old home, I somewhat missed homeland. In brief do not buy a ticket, this year celebrates a holiday I to drive.” “妈,您这话说的……我和你们客气啥呀？只是这么多年没回老家,我真有点想家了。总之你们就别买票了,今年过节我开车回来。” Conducting research, although is important, but impossible more important than the family member. 搞研究虽然重要,但也不可能比家人更重要。 Let alone the research of Riemann hypothesis is not in one single day can be completed, just solved accurate Riemann hypothesis this century difficult problem, under he also requires time to relax, reorganizes the mentality, trades the brain while convenient. 更何况黎曼猜想的研究不是一朝一夕就能完成的,刚刚解决了准黎曼猜想这个世纪难题,他也需要一点时间去放松下心情,整理思路,顺便换换脑子。 Naturally, the most important point, parents was also old, if there is a time, Lu Zhou naturally is wanted to go back to reunite by oneself. 当然,最重要的一点还是,父母的年纪也大了,如果有时间的话,陆舟当然还是希望由自己这边回去团圆。 As for the lunar orbit construction committee that side work, all are deferring to the plan, does not need his adviser to arrange anything specially. 至于月球轨道施工委员会那边的工作,一切都在按照计划中进行,也不需要他这位总顾问来特别安排什么。 If needs to planning to make the adjustment, or had any sudden outbreak, he naturally can put down matter on hand to return to the scientific research battleline on the first line, carries out his responsibility. 如果需要对计划作出调整,或者是发生了什么突发状况的话,他自然会放下手边的事情回到科研阵线的第一线上,履行他的职责。 Determined that in the Lu Zhou sound does not have awkward meaning, Fang Mei then to show the smiling face of feeling relieved. 确定陆舟的声音中没有为难的意思,方梅这才露出了放宽心的笑容。 If possible, she naturally hopes that the son can go home to celebrate the new year. Good that very although the son develops in Jinling, lived in the big house in the big city, but regarding lived them for a lifetime in Jiangling, here was their roots, their relatives and friends here, only then here was the true life. 如果可以的话,她当然还是希望儿子能回家过年。虽然儿子在金陵发展的很好,在大城市住上了大房子,但对于在江陵生活了一辈子的他们来说,这里才是他们的根,他们的亲朋好友都在这里,只有这里才是真正的生活。 Also therefore, even if Lu Zhou has raised repeatedly matter that moves to Jinling, but they had not complied. 也正是因此,即便陆舟多次提过搬家到金陵的事情,但他们也一直都没有答应过。 „Comes back, comes back mother to make dumplings to eat to you, left is always busy working all day...... yeah, before made you study well, had a good future for you, how I and your father have not thought, will turn into this. The matter in math I and father cannot add on your busy, I only hope that you leave soak go all day at the laboratory inside point, have the time to go out for a walk, contact others.” “回来好,回来妈给你包饺子吃,也别整天总是忙着工作了……哎,以前让你好好学习,也是为了你有个好点儿的前程,我和你爸怎么都没想到,会变成这样。数学上的事情我和爸也帮不上你的忙,我只希望你别整天泡在实验室里头点外卖,有时间还是多出去走走,接触接触其他人。” Lu Zhou coughed to say lightly: „I must correct, do not believe the thing that in the documentary film pats, no matter now studies the math to study the physics, must contact the person......” 陆舟轻咳了一声说道:“我得更正一下,你们也别信纪录片里面拍的东西,现在不管是研究数学还是研究物理,也是要接触人的……” Divorcing oneself from reality that wrap/sets was only also accepted in the past. 闭门造车那套也只在过去行得通。 Now even if Lu Zhou, must divorce oneself from reality, is impossible to shut off with the relation completely, at least arxiv and several commonly used document databases, must use. 现在就算是陆舟,要闭门造车,也不可能完全切断和外界的联系,至少arxiv和几个常用的文献数据库,还是必须得用到的。 Fang Mei: „No matter what good, your live happiness good, I and your father reached this age, besides hoping to be hugging the grandson earlier, did not have other to count on.” 方梅:“不管怎样都好,你自己活的开心就好,我和你爸都到了这个年龄,除了盼着早点抱上孙子之外,也没有别的指望了。” The Lu Zhou perspiration said: „After this......, said that definitely will have.” 陆舟汗道:“这个……以后再说吧,肯定会有的。” It seems like smiling of does not hold anything to expect, Fang Mei seems like comforting Lu Zhou, seemed like comforting itself to resemble said one. 似乎是不抱什么期望的笑了笑,方梅像是在安慰陆舟,又像是在安慰自己似的说了一句。 „Hopes......” “但愿吧……” Lu Zhou: „......” 陆舟:“……” Although knows that the old lady said does not want to oneself the too tremendous pressure, but why does not know, hears this „to hope”, lets he feels especially the heart pain inexplicably...... 虽然知道老娘这么说是不想给自己太大的压力,但不知道为什么,听到这声“但愿吧”,莫名地让他感到好特么的心痛啊……
