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

Perhaps this is the feeling of happiness. After thinking about it, he fell asleep like this. Of course, the training in the small black room is still the same, but for Zhou Ning now, these are only a quantitative accumulation, and he does not feel overwhelmed and overwhelmed. exhausted.

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

"I said Zhou Xiaozhou, you just got up, right? Even if it's a weekend today, you can't sleep until after ten o'clock. I put the car downstairs for you. The key is stuffed in the driver's side door. Enter the password to get it by yourself." Ah, I'm leaving!"

Zhou Ning yawned and opened the window. A gust of cold wind made people sober up. He was about to talk about eating together when he suddenly remembered that he had to go to Xia's house today.

"What are you doing on weekends?"

Da Zhao shook his neck and raised his chin to one 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 was afraid that she would become a killer on the road, so I took her to practice on the road. Don't talk about treating me to dinner. I just went to your small building. I know that today you are going to propose a marriage. Be good and see you on Monday. .”

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, walked towards Zhu Xingxing, and started chattering before getting in the car.

"I told you, don't mess with those lights. They're messing with you. Hey! Ancestor, don't just turn around. You think the tires are too resistant and want to replace them with new ones."

With the sound of yelling, he got into the car and left quickly. Zhou Ning shook his neck, went to drink a cup of milk, took a shower, and changed into a new set of clothes that Xia Momo bought for him. The self seems to look pretty good, and it should be the look that the older generation likes.

After tidying up, he drove to the small building. Before entering the door, he saw Zhou Xiaoyu at the door, with his waist up and his stomach sticking out, and he kept waving at Zhou Ning.

"Brother, hurry up, what time is it? Mom has urged you several times, hurry up and pack your things and leave before she comes down to talk."

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

"Don't worry, Second Aunt doesn't want to scold me. I also like to hear Second Aunt complain."

Zhou Xiaoyu was speechless.

"Okay, you mother and child love each other deeply, I don't need to worry about it, right?"

The second aunt had already stood behind Zhou Xiaoyu at some point, raised her hand to make a gesture, and put it down again.

"Don't be afraid to settle the bills. Waiting for you to give birth to my grandson, let's settle the old and new ones together. Let's go, the month is so old, and you still don't wear thick clothes. Stand here, Xiao Ning, hurry up and then Momo Go ahead, remember the day when you will meet your in-laws, they will decide, and remember carefully if you have any requirements.

For example, how much is the bride price, what are the requirements for the car or other things, what are your opinions on the decoration style of the house, and you can mention the general wedding date if you have any ideas. Our family can do whatever. In addition, these two boxes are for your mother-in-law alone. My friend is in very good condition after taking it for half a year, so she will try it too. "

Zhou Ning kept nodding.

"Don't worry, I will say, I will definitely make my mother-in-law happy."

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

Zhou Ning asked Zhou Xiaoyu to be honest and stay away from the room. Zhou Xiaoyu looked unhappy. After all, she was on winter vacation and was forced to eat all kinds of things by her mother every day. She probably felt a little bored staying there.

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

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

"Okay, if you don't like it, call Lao He and ask him to accompany you for a walk. The due date is not many days away, so he should spend more time with you."

The second aunt kept urging.

"What trouble are you making, Xiao Ning, hurry up and leave."

No more nonsense, Zhou Ning went to pick up Xia Momo, and the two drove to the compound of the municipal party committee. This time, they didn't need to stop to check at the door, and let them go. Seeing that Zhou Ning came in with big and small bags again, he hurriedly opened the door.

"Zhou Ning, you don't have to do this every time you come. Your aunt and I don't need anything."

Zhou Ning carried the things and put them in the room. He smiled awkwardly at Xia Shouchang. He didn't dare to be polite. Shame on me.

"My second aunt said that today is a marriage proposal. It is a big event to agree on the day when the two families will meet. It is also a respect for Momo and uncles and aunts. The etiquette cannot be ignored."

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

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

This made Zhou Ning even more nervous, Xia Momo couldn't see it, and tore off the apron from Xia Shouchang's waist.

"Okay, let Zhou Ning accompany you to play chess and chat, and leave the kitchen to me. I'm afraid that after eating your meal, we will all go to the hospital. It's really not worth the loss. I'm afraid Hu Ju will find you desperately."

Xia Shouchang smiled awkwardly, and without struggling, he dragged Zhou Ning to the study room. This time, the chessboard was not placed. The two sat down on the Chinese-style armchair and made a pot of tea. Xia Shouchang then said:

"I heard that you all went to Ludong City to receive the award yesterday. How did you get any honor?"

Zhou Ning briefly said, of course the collective and individual ones were not left behind, and took out his mobile phone, and showed Xia Shouchang a look at the certificates and medals, Xia Shouchang kept nodding, took the mobile phone and looked carefully.

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

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

"Many factors have contributed to this. It is not my own efforts. It can be said that everyone in our team works hard, pays attention to improving their own abilities, and focuses on the case. There is no internal friction. The case is going well.

I have been to Dayao City before and know the importance of the team, so I value the honor of this group more. "

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

"Don't be arrogant or impetuous, be polite and polite. It's good that I don't worry about it. You Bureau Hu came to me before, probably because of the investigation of the Dayao City case. The provincial department may conduct more such off-site investigations in the future. You have to be mentally prepared for the mission."

Zhou Ning was not surprised. After all, Hu Guangjian had blown the bull out of him. He didn't want to use crooked tricks to gain face. He was not opposed to such a job, because it could train the people in his group.

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

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the room, and Mother Xia pushed the door open and came in.

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

Xia Shouchang nodded, and asked Zhou Ning to go out of the study together. Zhou Ning was a little surprised when he saw a table of dishes. He knew that Xia Momo was good at cooking, but he didn't expect it to be so good. After being shocked, Zhou Ning felt aggrieved He looked at Momo Xia intently, as if she hadn't cooked the above dish for him.

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

"I prepared some on purpose. You haven't eaten them before. Isn't it a surprise?"

Zhou Ning nodded secretly. Under Xia's mother's arrangement, several people were seated, and four people ate more than a dozen dishes, which seemed a bit exaggerated.

"There are so many dishes, it's a pity that I can't finish them all."

Mother Xia smiled and said:
"The kitchen has prepared a lot of lunch boxes. Except for fish, I brought you a copy of everything, and then you take it back to eat."

Xia Momo snorted.

"We don't live together, so let him eat. I happen to lose weight."

Mother Xia poked Xia Momo's forehead, and said dotingly:
"You girl can't be jealous, but Zhou Ning is too thin. He really needs to make up. The work itself is very busy. It is not easy to go to Qin University and bring interns with you. Eat more."

Zhou Ning was not too polite. After all, he didn’t eat breakfast. Now he is free to eat. The quantity of two bowls of food is unknown, because whenever he takes a bite of food, Xia’s mother will give him another two yuan. After a meal, I really ate too much.

However, more than a dozen dishes are basically wiped out. As a mother-in-law, it seems that there is a common problem. As long as the son-in-law lets go of eating, he feels that the son-in-law is taking charge of his own family, and he is very happy.

This is the method He Shancun taught him. Once he used it today, not to mention it was really effective, even Xia Shouchang kept smiling.

After eating almost, after 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 have no objection. Years and years are fine. The key depends on your time."

Xia Shouchang nodded.

"On New Year's Eve and the first day of junior high school, we went to visit on the third day of junior high school. There was also an assessment of various departments a year ago. It will be next Saturday, January 1. You can decide the rest of the time.

As for the time of the wedding, our family has no objection, everything is up to you two, but I agree with what Momo Xia said, wait until you graduate with a Ph. "

Zhou Ning nodded.

"The topic we are studying has already taken shape. Before and after the Spring Festival, I will take time to complete all the items. As for the courses, I have no fixed courses. I mainly encounter problems or difficulties. I will analyze and discuss with Professor Li. Carry out certain scientific research according to the problem.”

"What is the direction of your research?"

""Victimology and Homicide Scene Analysis", combined with a large number of cases and homicide scene investigation sample data, on the concept, research content, academic value and practical significance of victimology, combined with the application of new technology in forensic work, thus Promote forensic work and case detection, and improve the quality of case handling.”

Xia Shouchang kept nodding his head. He was from an academic background, and he paid special attention to these things. Although he didn't know the relevant knowledge of forensic medicine, he could understand the key points of what Zhou Ning said.

"Very good. Combined with the direction you are good at and the resources you can use, as for Qin University, I think it 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 ten-year long-term plan, as well as an annual short-term plan. The follow-up scientific research will not be limited to forensic science, but will also be involved in various fields. And I want to use my mentor's relationship to make these developed products, promoted internationally."

Xia Shouchang nodded vigorously, and he recognized this sentence very much.

"It's a good idea. I'll meet with Principal Liu of Qin University in the next year and discuss it carefully. The city can also support it."

Mother Xia coughed.

"I said, today is not about work, Xiao Ning is here to propose marriage formally, and the two families will also marry soon, why do you always digress, forget it, since you are not sure about the date, then I will make a decision on this matter, next Sunday we will formally See you, actually, I want to see you tomorrow."

Momo Xia pouted.

"Mom, how eager are you to drive me out of the house?"

Mother Xia rolled her eyes and smiled at Zhou Ning.

"Wrong, I'm hurrying to make an appointment with my son-in-law."
