Back at home, after Zhou Ning washed up, he lay on the bed, thinking about the process of receiving the award, as well as the various conversations between his family and Xia Momo in the small building, and Zhou Ning smiled unconsciously.

Maybe this is the feeling of happiness, thinking about it, I fell asleep like this, of course, the training of the little black house is still the same, but now for Zhou Ning, these are only an accumulation of quantity, and I don't feel burned and overwhelmed.

As the phone rang, Zhou Ning opened his eyes and found that it was Zhao Xinli who called, so he quickly got up and answered it, walked to the window of the study on the north side, and saw Da Zhao waving downstairs.

"I said Zhou Xiaozhou, you won't just get up, even if it's a weekend today, you can't sleep until ten o'clock, I'll put the car downstairs for you, the key is stuffed on the driver's side door, enter the password yourself to get it, I'm leaving!"

Zhou Ning yawned, opened the window, a gust of cold wind made people sober up a little, and just about to say that they would eat together, they suddenly remembered that they were going to Xia's house today.

"Why are you going on the weekend?"

Da Zhao shook his neck and raised his chin to the side, it turned out that Da Zhao's car was parked not far away, and Zhu Xingxing was sitting in the driver's seat.

"That girl just got her driver's license, I'm afraid she will become a road killer, so take her to the road to practice, don't say invite me to dinner, I just went to your small building, I know that today you are going to propose, behave well, see you on Monday."

After speaking, he hung up the phone and walked towards Zhu Xingxing, and began to chatter before getting into the car.

"I said don't fiddle with those lights, they're messing with you, hey! Ancestors don't play in the same direction, you think this tire is too resistant, and you want to change it for me......"

With the shouting, he got in the car and left quickly, Zhou Ning shook his neck, went to drink a cup of milk and took a bath, and changed into a new set of clothes that Xia Momo bought for him, although he was a little awkwardly dressed, but looking at himself in the mirror, it seemed that he looked good, and he should be liked by the older generation.

packed up, drove to the small building, and before entering the door, I saw Zhou Xiaoyu at the door, holding his stomach with his waist up, and kept waving his hand towards Zhou Ning.

"Brother, hurry up, what time is it, my mother has urged me several times, hurry up and pack my things and go, while she doesn't come down to chat."

Zhou Ning walked down quickly, helped Zhou Xiaoyu, and entered the entrance of the small building.

"Don't worry, the second aunt is reluctant to scold me, and I also like to listen to the second aunt."

Zhou Xiaoyu was speechless.

"Okay, your mother and son are in deep love, I don't have to worry about it, right?"

The second aunt didn't know when she was already standing behind Zhou Xiaoyu, raised her hand and gestured, and then put it down.

"I'm not afraid to settle the account, waiting for you to give birth to my grandson, let's calculate the old account and the new account together, while going, the month is so old, and I don't always stand here in thick clothes, Xiao Ning, you grab Momo and go, remember the day of the in-laws, they will decide, what requirements are carefully remembered."

For example, how much is the bride price, what are the requirements for the car or others, what are the opinions on the decoration style of the house, the approximate wedding day can be mentioned if you have ideas, our family can do anything, and these two boxes are separately for your mother-in-law, a friend of mine has eaten for half a year and is in very good condition, she also tried. ”

Zhou Ning kept nodding.

"Don't worry, I will say, I will coax my mother-in-law to be happy."

The second aunt smiled, patted Zhou Ning's arm, and urged him to leave quickly.

Zhou Ning asked Zhou Xiaoyu not to come out of the room honestly, Zhou Xiaoyu looked unhappy, after all, she was on winter vacation, and she was forced to eat all kinds of things by her mother every day, and she was probably a little bored.

"Brother, you hurry up and get married, so that Momo can accompany me, so that my mother won't talk about me alone."

Zhou Ning pinched Zhou Xiaoyu's cheek and smiled dotingly.

"Okay, I'm annoyed to call Lao He and ask him to go out for a walk with you, there are not many days left before the due date, and he should accompany you more."

The second aunt kept urging on the side.

"What are you messing with, Xiao Ning hurry up."

No more nonsense, Zhou Ning went to pick up Xia Momo, the two drove to the compound of the municipal party committee, this time they didn't need to stop in front of the door to check, they were released directly, as soon as they arrived at Xia's house, Xia Shouchang opened the door with an apron, a little bit of a cook, seeing that Zhou Ning came in with a big bag and a small bag, he quickly got out of the door.

"Zhou Ning, you don't have to do this every time you come, I don't lack anything with your aunt."

Zhou Ning carried something and put it in the room, smiling awkwardly at Xia Shouchang, he didn't dare to be polite, he was really afraid that Xia Shouchang would come to help me do it, he had no problem with knife work, but the level of cooking skills was the level of cooking instant noodles, so it would be a shame.

"My second aunt said that today is a marriage proposal, and the big event of agreeing on the day when the two families meet is also a respect for Momo and her uncle and aunt, and the etiquette cannot be abolished."

Xia Shouchang smiled, wiped his hands and waved towards Xia Momo.

"Take Zhou Ning in and sit for a while, and I'll show my hand today."

This made Zhou Ning even more nervous, how could Xia Momo not see it, and ripped off the apron on Xia Shouchang's waist.

"Okay, let Zhou Ning accompany you to play chess and chat, leave the kitchen to me, I'm afraid that after you eat this meal, we will all go to the hospital, it will really outweigh the losses, I'm afraid Hu Ju will find you desperate."

Xia Shouchang smiled awkwardly, didn't struggle, and dragged Zhou Ning to the study, this time he didn't put the chessboard, the two sat down on the Chinese-style circle chair, made a pot of tea, Xia Shouchang said:

"I heard that you all went to Ludong City to receive the award yesterday, how about you get any honors?"

Zhou Ning said simply, of course, the collective and individual did not fall, and took out his mobile phone and showed Xia Shouchang the certificate and medal, Xia Shouchang kept bowing his head, took the mobile phone and looked at it carefully.

"It's really good, you have been working for less than three years, and you can achieve such results, which is absolutely inseparable from your hard work."

Zhou Ning shook his head, his grandfather's advice sounded in his ears, and he hurriedly said:

"A lot of factors contributed to it, not my own efforts can do it, our team, it can be said that everyone is very hard-working, very focused on improving their own ability, but also put their minds on the eucalyptus, there is no internal friction, which makes the progress of the eucalyptus go smoothly.

I've been to Dayao City before and know the importance of the team, so I value the honor of this collective more, it's not official, it's not humble, it's just what I think in my heart. ”

Xia Shouchang smiled, very satisfied with Zhou Ning's rhetoric.

"Don't be arrogant or impatient, polite and courteous, very good so I don't have to worry, you Hu Bureau has looked for me before, it is estimated that it is because of the investigation of the eucalyptus in Dayao City, and then the provincial department may have more such off-site investigation tasks, you must be mentally prepared."

Zhou Ning was not surprised, after all, Hu Guangjian blew the cow out, and people didn't want to dig up the wall and dig the wall in a crooked way, which was already considered to give face, and he didn't resist this kind of work, after all, he could train the people in their group.

"Well, I'm mentally prepared, and when I go out later, I know how to coordinate."

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Xia Mu pushed the door in.

"Let's eat, don't talk about work, Xiao Ning is here this time, not to talk about the meeting between the two families, I don't think any work is as important as this, come out and discuss it as a family."

Xia Shouchang nodded, called Zhou Ning out of the study together, and saw a table of dishes, Zhou Ning was a little surprised, he knew that Xia Momo was good at cooking, but he didn't expect it to be so good, shocked, Zhou Ning looked at Xia Momo with some grievances, it seemed that she hadn't made this dish for him.

Xia Momo approached Zhou Ning, gently squeezed his hand, and said secretly in a low voice.

"Deliberately prepared some, you haven't eaten it, surprise?"

Zhou Ning nodded secretly, and under Xia Mu's Zhang Luo, a few people sat down, and more than a dozen dishes were eaten by four people, which seemed a bit exaggerated.

"It's a pity that I can't finish eating so many dishes."

Xia Mu smiled and said:

"The kitchen has prepared a lot of lunch boxes, and I have brought you one for everything except the fish, and you can take it back and eat it later."

Xia Momo snorted.

"We don't live together, let's give him food, I'm just losing weight."

Xia Mu poked Xia Momo's forehead and said dotingly:

"You girl is still jealous, but Zhou Ning is too thin, he really should make up for it, the work itself is very busy, and he has to go to Qin University and take interns with him, it's not easy, eat more."

Zhou Ning was not polite, after all, he didn't eat breakfast, but he let go of eating at this time, and he didn't know the number of two bowls of food, because whenever he had a bite of the dish, Xia Mu would make up two more pieces for him, and he really ate a little too much after one meal.

However, more than a dozen dishes have been basically wiped out, as a mother-in-law, it seems that there is a common problem, as long as I see my son-in-law let go of eating, I feel that this son-in-law is in charge of his own family, and he is also very happy.

This is the method He Shancun taught him, and when he uses it today, not to mention that it is really effective, even Xia Shouchang kept smiling.

After eating almost and cleaning up, several people sat in the living room, Xia Shouchang first mentioned the purpose of Zhou Ning's trip, and Xia's mother waved her hand.

"We don't have an opinion, it's okay before and after the year, the key depends on your time."

Xia Shouchang nodded.

"Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year, the third day of the new year to visit, there is also an evaluation of various departments a year ago, next Saturday, January 26, the rest of the time, you can set it."

As for the time of the wedding, our family has no opinion, everything is up to the two of you, but Xia Momo said that I agree with it, wait for your doctorate graduation, Professor Li Chengbin doesn't want you to complete your doctoral studies within a year? ”

Zhou Ning nodded.

"The topic we are studying has been formed, before and after the Spring Festival, I will take time to complete all the matters, as for the course, my course is not fixed, mainly when I encounter problems, or difficulties, follow Professor Li to analyze and discuss, and carry out certain scientific research according to the problems."

"What is the direction of your research?"

"Victimology and Eucalyptus Scene Analysis", combined with a large number of eucalyptus cases and eucalyptus scene investigation sample data, on the concept, research content, academic value and practical significance of victimology, combined with the application of new science and technology in forensic work, so as to promote forensic work and eucalyptus case detection work, improve the quality of handling."

Xia Shouchang kept nodding, he was born in an academic background, and he attached great importance to these, although he didn't understand the relevant knowledge of forensics, but Zhou Ning said something, and he understood the key to this.

"Very good, combined with the direction you are good at, there are resources that can be used, as for the Qin University, I think I will fully support your later research and development work, but in terms of scientific research, have you made any plans for subsequent development?"

Zhou Ning nodded.

"We have a long-term plan for 10 years, as well as a short-term plan for each year, and the follow-up scientific research will not only be limited to forensic medicine, but also involve more fields, and I want to use the relationship of my mentor to promote the finished products of these developments to the world."

Xia Shouchang nodded vigorously, this sentence made him very recognized.

"The idea is good, I will meet with President Liu of Qin University in the next year, talk carefully, and the city can also support it."

Xia Mu coughed.

"I said, today is not about work, Xiao Ning is officially here to propose, and the two families will be in-laws soon, why do you always go off topic, forget it, since you don't have a fixed date, then I will decide on this matter, let's meet officially next Sunday, in fact, I want to see you tomorrow."

Xia Momo pouted.

"Mom, how impatient are you to kick me out of the door?"

Xia Mu glanced at her and smiled at Zhou Ning.

"Wrong, I'm hurrying to settle my son-in-law."
