I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 869: My daughter really married the best husband
Originally, Ji Xiuyu wanted to be with her daughter when she gave birth to her baby, but academicians like Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu, who are responsible for highly confidential and extremely critical major scientific research projects, wanted to take leave and go home. This kind of pre-approval process was cumbersome, and Ning Qingyun gave birth to the baby nearly a month earlier than the expected date. In the end, Ji Xiuyu hurriedly applied for leave only after receiving the news.

But even if their superiors have been considerate and expedited the approval process, the work in the institute must be arranged well and avoid affecting the research progress as much as possible before they can leave with peace of mind. Therefore, Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu hurriedly rushed, and they were still in two places. It was only on the seventh day after the baby was born that he flew to the capital.

As soon as they got off the plane, someone picked them up and escorted them to the Maternal and Child Health Hospital. On the way, Ji Xiuyu took the mobile phone from the accompanying person and contacted Qin Ke.

She and her husband don't need mobile phones in the institute. Although they keep their original mobile phone numbers, they have been locked in the screen cabinet for a long time and are probably broken.

The last time she went back to Yuanzhou to prepare for her daughter's wedding, she always made do with the mobile phones prepared by the accompanying escorts, and this time was no exception.

As a result, when the call was made, the other party was informed that the busy signal was on. When the call was made again, the busy signal was still on.

Ji Xiuyu was stunned, and then called her daughter Ning Qingyun, the signal was also busy.

The young couple happened to be on the phone?

When they were almost at the entrance of the Maternity and Child Health Hospital, the calls between Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were still not connected. The entourage reminded them, could it be that the unknown call interception function of Academician Xiao Qin and Academician Xiao Ning's mobile phones was turned on?

Only then did Ji Xiuyu wake up with a slap on her forehead.That's right, given the reputation of the couple, if they don't turn on the unknown number blocking function, they will be harassed endlessly by all kinds of phone calls.

The main reason is that Ji Xiuyu hasn't used her mobile phone much in the past ten years, and she really didn't expect that her mobile phone has this function.

The temporary mobile phone she is using now also has a new number. The temporary mobile phone and corresponding number she used when she returned to Yuanzhou last year were returned and all data and call records were deleted long before she returned to the institute.

Of course, there were still many ways to contact Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, but it was a bit troublesome. Seeing that they were already entering the hospital gate, Ji Xiuyu gave up and went directly to the hospital ward with her husband.

The accompanying staff had already known the relevant information beforehand, and they still knew the room number of the ward.

In fact, it is not easy to enter the designated ward directly, especially because Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have special status. They are arranged in the highest-level special care ward, guarded by special security guards, and there are also Wei Feng and Wei Jing on the periphery. Others secretly protect him.

——Although there are many people coming to visit Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun these days, they are all important people, and they have communicated their itinerary in advance so that everything can go smoothly.

But of course Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu are also "big shots".

They didn't need to worry about these procedures at all. After getting off the plane, the entourage knew that they wanted to visit their daughter and son-in-law directly, so they arranged the itinerary with the highest efficiency, but they didn't use the names of Ning Zongxun and his wife. After all, they The identity and name are relatively sensitive.

After passing the inspection passage, Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu signaled their entourage not to follow them and walked towards the special care ward more than ten meters away.

It's getting closer, it's getting closer, it's getting closer.

The couple's steps stopped involuntarily, and their eyes became a little hot.

Nearly a year has passed since the last time I saw my daughter. How could I not miss her in my heart?
Just thinking about my daughter being absent from the whole process from pregnancy to giving birth to two babies, the guilt and sadness made the Ning Zongxun couple, who manage countless senior researchers and are extremely ambitious and courageous, feel guilty and sad. I feel really ashamed to face my daughter.

"Let's go in, time is precious." After all, Ning Zongxun held his wife's hand tightly, pulling her to move forward again.

There were two nurses waiting outside the door. They probably didn't want to disturb Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun's family happiness with their baby inside. They stood about one meter away from the door. When they saw Ning Zongxun and his wife approaching, they were about to When Ning Zongxun opened his mouth to ask, he made a gesture of silence.

The nurses knew that the people who could pass the security inspection in front of them to visit Academician Qin and Academician Ning were all important people. Even if the middle-aged couple in front of them looked a little strange wearing sunglasses and hats, they did not dare to intercept them.

The door of the ward was open, and before I reached the door, I heard Qin Ke's funny "dulu" voice coming from inside: "Dad has turned into a big monster now, isn't it scary? A little bit~~~ Haha, it's still the same as expected. Xiaoxiao laughed out loud first."

Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu could both imagine Qin Ke making faces to coax the child, and couldn't help but smile at each other.This Qin Ke really lets go of his identity.

At least when Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu took care of Ning Qingyun before, they weren't so weird.

"Hey, Zhengzheng, can you show me a smile to save your face? I didn't see your sister laughing non-stop. Wow... Is it wrong? You laughed when your mother kissed your face? This is too much of a difference in treatment. Come on! I protest strongly! Humph, you kid just wants to kiss your mother, right? I'm warning you, your mother is my wife, don't think that just because you are a little boy, you can cling to her, your mother is mine. Me. Wife, I want to kiss you too."

Then came Ning Qingyun's soft and cheerful laughter: "Okay, you are so old, but you are still so rude, don't teach the baby bad."

"I don't care, if you don't kiss my face, I will kiss you and make you jealous!"

"I won't be jealous of my daughter~~mua~ Okay, we've kissed you, don't make trouble. Qin Xiaoke, please help hold Zhengzheng down, and I'll go and collect the little saliva towels of the two babies."

Listening to the cheerful joy inside, Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu walked to the door and saw the figure of their daughter Ning Qingyun.

The daughter was carefully handing the baby she was holding to Qin Ke, with a happy smile on her pretty face.

Looking at their daughter's smile as brilliant as a plum blossom blooming, Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu's eyes suddenly became moist.

He was indeed right to entrust his daughter to Qin Ke.

Perhaps only when she is around Qin Ke, her daughter, who has always been introverted and not very good at showing her emotions, can show such a relaxed and happy smile, right?

Ning Qingyun was about to get the small mouth towel hanging by the window. Suddenly, as if she had discovered something subconsciously, she suddenly turned around and saw her parents standing at the door of the room, wearing sunglasses and hats.

Ning Qingyun was startled, then quickly stepped forward and shouted with a slightly trembling voice: "Mom! Dad!"

The mist rolling in Ji Xiuyu's originally red eyes finally gathered into big tears. She rushed over, hugged her daughter, and choked out: "Jun'er! Jun'er!" Sometimes feelings are like this, before. I haven't contacted Ning Qingyun much for so many years, and I can still bear the longing. But after attending her daughter's wedding last year and living with her daughter for more than half a month, Ji Xiuyu's maternal nature has been completely activated. For ten months, she has been chatting with her daughter on the phone or via video for 10 minutes every month, but how can just 10 minutes be enough?Especially after knowing that my daughter was pregnant with a baby, I wanted to fly to my daughter to take care of her.

But the cold reality forced rationality to suppress her motherly nature.

Climate change is accelerating, and no one knows when the "first sign" of world collapse will come. In order to continue the future of mankind, continue the civilization of Xia Kingdom, and leave the fire of civilization, she must hold hands with her husband. The researchers below devoted all their efforts to arduous research in order to prepare for the "in case" when it comes and gain more opportunities and hope for the future for Xia Guo.

However, at this moment, when I saw my daughter, all rationality was once again overwhelmed by my mother's nature.

Ji Xiuyu kept crying and kissing her daughter's hair, as if she wanted to make up for the guilt and love in her heart in this way.

Qin Ke was also surprised to see Ning Zongxun and his wife suddenly arriving.He skillfully held Xiaoxiao in one hand and Zhengzheng in the other, and came over and called: "Dad, Mom. Look, these are your granddaughters and grandsons. The one here is the elder sister. Her first name is Ning Yongxi, and her nickname is Xiaoxiao. . This is my younger brother, his name is Qin Junyao, and his nickname is Zhengzheng. Baby, look who’s coming? It’s grandpa and grandma!"

Ning Zongxun's eyes were full of tears, and he shook the delicate hands of the two babies with his trembling hands: "Hey, it's so similar... so similar... almost exactly the same as Jun'er's when he was a child. The younger brother is more like his mother. , my sister is more like my father...Xiuyu, come and see your granddaughter and grandson!"

Ji Xiuyu hurriedly wiped away her tears, smiled apologetically at her daughter, and hurried over to see the two sweethearts.

Sister Xiaoxiao's nickname was really accurate. When she saw two strangers, she still showed a cute smile.The younger brother just pursed his lips, but his black gem-like eyes shone with the innocent light of a small animal, which was equally endearing.

Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu were instantly captured by the cute babies. When Qin Ke gave them two babies to hold, they hurriedly took them and were reluctant to put them down.

"Xiao Ke, my sister's name is Ning Yongxi? Why isn't your surname Qin?" Ning Zongxun asked unexpectedly while teasing and smiling lovingly.

Qin Ke said nonchalantly: "They happen to be twins, so I thought one of them would take his mother's surname. This was also agreed with my grandparents in advance."

Ning Qingyun naturally put in good words for her husband: "Originally Qin Ke wanted his younger brother to be named Ning, but his grandparents liked his older sister better, so they gave her the last name Ning. Ning Yongxi's name was given by her grandparents."

Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu felt a warm current in their hearts at the same time, and their eyes on Qin Ke became softer.

The surname is the most direct expression of the traditional culture of the Xia Kingdom, and it is also a social and cultural symbol based on blood inheritance. For a large scholarly family like the Ning family, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, the inheritance of the surname is quite important.Ning Zongxun and his wife are high-level intellectuals, and they don’t hold any views on favoring boys over girls. They think that boys and girls are the same, but they occasionally thought that the surname directly related to the Ning family would be discontinued in Qingyun’s generation, and they still felt a little bit confused. Sorry.

But regrets are regrets. Neither of them ever thought that Ning Qingyun's child would be named Ning. Following the father's surname is a tradition for most people in the country. Compared with inheriting the Ning family's surname, they both hope that their daughter will live happily, but they don't want to do it because The issue of surname made her daughter and Qin Ke slightly unhappy.

I didn’t expect that Qin Ke would be so considerate to let one of his children be named Ning, and he didn’t even care if his son’s surname was Ning…

Although it was the elder sister who took her mother's surname in the end, it fully demonstrated Qin Ke's respect for their Ning family and his infinite love for Ning Qingyun.

My daughter really married the best husband.

……

Today is the scheduled discharge day. An hour later, Qin Yanghui, Shen Qiuyi, Qin Xiaoke, Shen Tieshan and other relatives also came. They came to help move various luggage and items. They saw Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu exchanging pleasantries again.

After packing their luggage, everyone left the Maternal and Child Health Hospital together and drove back to the garden villa of Qingmu University.

The home has already been "renovated". All sharp corners and places prone to collision have been covered with anti-collision pads. The preset children's room is even more beautifully decorated. Two small cradle beds are placed in it. It's full of cartoon pictures, and there are also a few Ultraman Tiga posters mixed in - no need to mention who posted this.

Qingmu University also carefully selected three of the best confinement nannies to take turns taking care of the two babies 7/24. The original nanny Qingsao and her daughter can also help take care of them. In addition, they are eager to try and speak out. Qin Xiaoke has to take on the "feeding task" of his two nephews and nieces. After returning to the villa, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun will not really be overwhelmed by trivial matters such as diapers and bottles.

Ning Zongxun and his wife also moved into the garden villa. There were many rooms here, more than enough for twenty people. Qin Xiaoke alone occupied a room and a studio.

Ning Zongxun and his wife could take seven days off this time, so they naturally planned not to go anywhere. They would spend the whole time at home with their daughter and son-in-law and entertaining their two grandchildren.

Qin Ke's parents also agreed to return to the capital when the two babies are one month old, and then come to stay for a week every month to see the two babies.This frequency of living together can basically minimize the possibility of conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Professor Edward Witten and his wife, who originally lived in the garden villa, were not here at this time. They invited Professor Karen Uhlenbeck to go on a trip.

These foreign professors had a very clear sense of boundaries. Knowing that Qin Ke and his wife had just had two babies, they probably didn’t have much time to devote to studying academic issues. It happened that they had been staying at Qingmu University for two or three months, so they decided to take a break. After a month of wandering around, enjoying the beautiful rivers and mountains of Xia Kingdom and enjoying the delicious food of Xia Kingdom, they agreed to travel together.

Qingmu University has specially arranged for two translators and guides to take care of and accompany you throughout the entire journey. There is no need to worry about any accidents happening to these three old men and ladies.

There are many chores and pleasures that I won’t list in detail.

That night, Jiang Weixian and Xu Qingyan heard the news and came to meet Ning Zongxun and his wife. Teachers, students, and brothers reunited after a long absence, and they all had mixed feelings. Ning Zongxun even stayed with the teacher and junior brother for one night, and talked by candlelight.

It wasn't until early the next morning, when Jiang Weixian and Xu Qingyan left after breakfast, that Ning Zongxun had the opportunity to talk in detail with Qin Ke in the study.

The two of them sat face to face on the small coffee table in the study. Qin Ke brewed Yuqian Longjing, poured a cup of tea, and placed it in front of his father-in-law.

Ning Zongxun took a sip and said, "Xiao Ke, do you still have research on making tea? This tea is brewed well." Ning Zongxun was born in a scholarly family, so he naturally also has research on tea.

"I just know a little bit about it." Qin Ke also planned to have a good chat with his father-in-law this time, especially about the topic of global climate change.

In the end, Ning Zongxun spoke first. After taking another sip of tea, he asked in a low voice: "Xiao Ke, how did you and Qingjun successfully predict this El Niño phenomenon? Are you aware of global climate change?" Is there any new progress in the cause of the disease?"
