Extra 2

Regarding the question of whether Zaizai should be asked to defend himself, Lin Qiao was joking.

But the young man was serious about coming out on the day of the defense.

Ji Duo sent the man to the hospital. Not long after, Xu Li and Old Master Ji also arrived. They were waiting outside and heard the crying before the end of the day.

The child was brought out, a little girl with red skin, red mouth and eyes that had not yet opened.

It was really small and soft. Ji Duo stared at it silently for a long time but didn't dare to reach out his hand.

Old Master Ji didn't dare to move, and in the end Xu Li took the child and hugged him.

Ji Duo hurried in to check on Lin Qiao's condition.

To be honest, she was very weak and weak. Since Ji Duo knew Lin Qiao, he had never seen her so weak and weak.

His face was pale, his eyes were tightly closed, his clothes and hair were all wet, and he looked like he had just been pulled out of the water.

For a moment, Ji Duo even paused, somewhat hesitant to move forward.

Fortunately, Lin Qiao opened her eyes quickly, and he recovered as usual. He wiped the sweat off her face with a towel, "It's a little girl."

The movements were gentle, and so was the voice, but there was a rare hint of tenderness in it.

Lin Qiao placed her hand on the back of his hand and said "hmm" softly.

She had just heard from the midwife.

In fact, given the current irregularities in hospitals, B-ultrasound can reveal the gender of a baby, but neither she nor Ji Duo chose to have it done.

Since some things are gifts from God, it is up to God to decide. Opening a blind box is also a kind of happiness.

However, gender may not be important, but the child must not make excuses, and Ji Duo is very adamant about this point.

The next day, a meeting was held in the ward as to what to name the baby who had finally arrived in the Ji family. Ji Duo presided over the meeting, Lin Qiao, Old Man Ji, Xu Li participated, and Ji Ze and Ji Ling listened in.

The old man had obviously been prepared for a long time. He took out a piece of paper, put on his reading glasses and started reading.

Some have profound meanings, some are in line with current trends, and some are obviously boys' names but can also be used for girls.

After reading each one, he couldn't help but look up at his son and daughter-in-law.

One of them had a serious expression on his face no matter what he was saying, while the other had a smile on his face no matter what he was saying. It was impossible to tell which one he was satisfied with.

They are really a couple. The old man put the paper away helplessly.

Ji Ling had just finished the college entrance examination and without Ye Minshu's intervention, she boldly applied for the Film Academy and was admitted.

She was free now, so she raised her hand to answer the question, "How about calling me Gege?"

Everyone who lives in Yandu knows what the word "Gege" means.

The old man's face turned serious, and he obviously felt something was not good. He looked at his son and daughter-in-law, but said nothing.

Lin Qiao was also a little at a loss for words. Thanks to a certain TV series, whenever she said these two words, she wanted to add a lucky word.

And you accompanied her to watch the snow and the moon, and talked about life ideals from poetry and songs, but you didn't accompany me to watch the snow and the moon, and talked about life ideals from poetry and songs...

There were so many jokes that she couldn't bear to look at them.

In the end, the proposal was passed, but since Ji Ling had already proposed it, Ji Ze, who also came to see the child, was eager to try it.

Then he was looked at calmly by his uncle.

It's just too quiet. He had a similar look when he asked about naming the liquid soap Muzi.

Ji Ze swallowed his words again.

Lin Qiao noticed this and found it a little funny. "We can't call it 'defense', how about 'graduation' or 'thesis'?"

Although she and Ji Ze had been engaged as children, they had never even met before. For one thing, the person Yandu met was Ji Duo, and the person she married was also Ji Duo, so Ji Duo would sometimes feel jealous.

Unexpectedly, it just livened up the atmosphere. The old man thought seriously for a moment and said, "Then why not call me Dr. Ji? Aren't you going to study for a doctorate in the fall?"

Dr. Ji...

Is the little girl going to have to endure everything that she shouldn't have to endure at her age just after she is born?

Lin Qiao suspected that those names with good meanings were all given by Xu Li. Sure enough, when the boy heard it, he also cried.

As soon as she started crying, everyone in the ward gathered around her.

Xu Li was the most experienced. She reached inside the towel and said, "It's peed."

A group of people gathered together to watch the little girl changing her diaper. There were so many people that one person pulled a corner of the diaper, and there were still two people left to cheer her on and shout "six, six, six".

After changing the diaper, he patted the little girl to sleep, and finally Ji Duo asked, "How about calling her Ji Nian?"

When he said this, he was looking at Lin Qiao, "My nickname is Nian Nian."

Ji Nian, ji niang, is he commemorating her graduation defense yesterday, or...

Lin Qiao raised her eyes and saw that the man had a cold expression, and his eyes were only on her and the swaddling clothes beside her.

Later she found out that Ji Duo had placed the baby next to her pillow when she fell asleep and took a photo as a souvenir.

In the photo, the mother and daughter are face to face, sleeping with the same face, which is the greatest tenderness in Ji Duo's heart in his life.

When the super soft little Ji Niannian opened her eyes, she really had a pair of rosy eyes like Lin Qiao, dark and round, with upturned corners.

But her voice was not soft at all. When Lin Qiao went to school for the first time after her first month, she performed a roof-lifting dance.

Although her hands and feet were so small, she waved them with great force. Lin Qiao did not hesitate when she moved to the school, but she paused when she was about to leave.

"You go, our mother and I are at home." Ji Duo was holding the baby, his body was stiff, but he still said.

Knowing that Lin Qiao's doctoral student was about to start school, he took a few days off to stay at home and help the child go through this period of adaptation.

"Mom is here, she hasn't left." Xu Li understood that the child was looking for his mother's scent, and found a piece of clothing that Lin Qiao had worn for her son to wear.

The two of them clapped and coaxed Lin Qiao, and she finally got out of the door. After reporting, she hurried back home.

When I entered the room, Nian Nian had stopped crying. She lay on her father's shoulder, held by her father in the cool place under the eaves, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

The bright sunlight only fell on a corner of the man's military pants. Between the light and shadow, the man's expression was not very gentle.

But his expression was serious. Hidden beneath his expression, his movements were very light and his deep voice was still humming something.

Lin Qiao slowed down and listened. It was "Childhood".

Someone had sung the song "Childhood" to her before, and she even asked him if he would sing it for her if he liked it.

The man frowned at the time, but he never expected that he would learn it later...

Lin Qiao suddenly stopped rushing forward and stood by the door, listening to him humming "Why hasn't that girl from the next class passed by my window yet?"

But the man had good hearing and he still noticed that she had returned. As soon as the voice stopped, he just stared at her across the sunny yard.

Lin Qiao walked over and looked at the little girl with closed eyes in his arms, "You never let it go?"

"Just fell asleep." Ji Duo's expression didn't look like someone who had been holding a child for hours.

Lin Qiao reached out and took it. The little guy returned to the familiar embrace, arched his back subconsciously, and fell into a deeper sleep.

Ji Duo then moved his shoulders, which were a little stiff from maintaining the same position for a long time.

"You're really annoying." Lin Qiao patted his daughter's little butt, then lowered his head and put his arm around her sleeping face.

Ji Duo kept looking at her gentle and smiling eyes, "Mom is out buying groceries, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

"All good." Lin Qiao lowered her eyes and said, then raised them and looked at him with a smile, "You sang very well."

Ji Duo's expression froze, and he looked into her eyes, unable to speak for a moment.

Lin Qiao was serious, "Sincere singing is always the most beautiful."

Even without any skill involved, she heard a sincere heart that wanted her to be happy.

The newly appointed driver Xiao Yuan was very embarrassed about the fact that his leader could sing to the children.

Of course, what surprised him even more was his sister-in-law Lin Qiao.

There are many young and beautiful military wives in the army, and he has met more than one.

But Lin Qiao is the first and only young, beautiful and capable woman who has obtained a doctorate at the age of 22 or 23.

Being a mother has made Lin Qiao more gentle and charming, and she has a blood relationship with the world besides love. But she is not careless in her studies. With Xu Li helping to take care of the children and a nanny at home, she started to prepare to apply for funding as soon as her doctoral program started.

PhD students can apply for research funds when they work on their own projects, not to mention that she has the support of her supervisor and an impressive resume as a master's student.

With little trouble, her funding was approved. It wasn't much, but it was enough to get her project started.

Along with the approval, the college also gave her a laboratory.

However, if you do a project yourself, you have to form your own team. Lin Qiao is not a teacher at the school, so this does not give you an advantage.

But fortunately, she could use undergraduate students. Qi Huaiwen is a senior this year. At that time, she substituted for her tutor and got to know many students.

Lin Qiao invited them one by one, and most of them agreed. Some also expressed their desire to follow the instructor to do the project in advance.

In the end, the team was finalized, with a total of six people including her, including two seniors including Qi Huaiwen, and three juniors.

However, it was these six students, the oldest of whom was no older than 24, who made a breakthrough in the field of pan-based carbon fibers in the spring of the following year that no other colleges or research institutions had made.

In this report, Lin Qiao finally took the lead.

In just one and a half years, she brought her own scientific research team and her own research results to the report hall again.

And because of their breakthrough, the country has seen another possibility after several failed attempts to introduce new technologies in recent years: the possibility of independent research and development.

Because it was just a project done by a doctoral student, the person who came was not very important, but I didn't expect the research results to be very important.

After the report was over, Zhang Changning was the first to start applauding, followed by another professor next to him, and the applause gradually became continuous.

When shaking hands with Lin Qiao, looking at her and the young faces behind her, someone couldn't help but sigh and said with a smile: "Young people are indeed the rising sun, and their future is limitless."

The phrase "the rising sun" has expressed the thoughts of many people. After today, Lin Qiao may no longer be just a rising sun in the scientific research community.

After everyone left, Ji Duo still took time out of his busy schedule to take pictures of Lin Qiao and her team, but this time he also brought a small thing.

So when they took the last group photo, in the lecture hall, under the banner, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, with a baby girl in their arms.

Little Ji Niannian, who was almost called Dr. Ji, grinned, revealing a few newly emerged teeth, which was so cute that it could melt people's hearts. As soon as the photo was taken, other students in the team came over to hug her. The little girl was not shy and accepted hugs from anyone, especially from pretty older brothers and sisters.

So the child took photos with not only her parents but also other people, including Qi Huaiwen, who looked the best and held her for the longest time.

Ji Duo looked at his young lady who was so happy that she didn't want to leave, and suddenly he felt a little bit unhappy.

However, after the photos were developed, Xu Li hugged her child and kissed him again and again, "Look at our Nian Nian, she is so beautiful, no matter who she is in the photo with, she looks good."

"The key is to have courage." Old Master Ji nodded in agreement, "Look at so many people, is she scared?"

Who can be as frightening as your son? "Xu Li was amused. Seeing that the little guy couldn't stay in her arms anymore and was jumping to get off, she quickly put him on the matted floor and said, "Have fun. Grandma won't hold you."

"Ah!" The young man screamed just as he was about to speak.

After crawling around on the mat twice, he tried to stand up with the help of Cha Ji, and pointed at Lin Qiao in the photo, "Ma."

"Oh, we Nian Nian recognized that it was mom!" Xu Li was very surprised.

The little girl pointed at Ji Duo again, and couldn't make an accurate sound for a long time with her little mouth.

Xu Li taught her several times, but she still made the same sound. Later, she became impatient and turned her head to play with the sofa cushion.

Xu Li couldn't help but think of her son, "This second child, he doesn't even know that other children can call him dad."

There has been some work in the army recently, and Ji Duo hasn't been home for almost half a month.

Lin Qiao was also very busy. Shortly after reporting her results, her laboratory received a large national grant to support her continued research in the field of pan-based carbon fibers.

To do this, she had to expand her team and recruit a group of undergraduates.

And because she has the ability and projects, she can directly supervise master's students after graduating with a doctorate. Some of the undergraduates are actually her students in preparation.

Since the couple were busy, the little girl was taken back to the old house and taken care of by Xu Li and the old man, and then sent back to Lin Qiao in the evening.

She is almost one year old now, and has started eating solid food. She doesn't ask for her mother much during the day.

The little guy's old house was convenient for Ji Ze and Ji Ling. When they didn't have classes or work, they would often come back to see their sister. Sometimes Ji Ze would not come back alone, but would bring his friends and childhood friends with him. After all, when Ji Jun and Ye Minshu were not here, this was his home.

Nian Nian was already very familiar with this brother. When they met, she hugged his legs with ease, and then once she was picked up, she climbed onto his shoulders with her short legs.

Ji Ze understood and carried her on his shoulders. The little girl immediately pointed outside and wanted to go out.

"If you like children so much, why don't you get married earlier? You are already 26 or 27 years old this year." A childhood friend laughed at him.

Ji Ze didn't care, "If you love someone, you have to get married? Didn't my uncle have Nian Nian when he was over 30 years old, right, Nian Nian?" He touched the little girl on his shoulder.

The little girl immediately giggled and reached out to grab the leaves of the fruit trees in the yard.

Since launching detergent and shampoo two years ago, Ji Ze's business has been growing bigger and bigger. In the past two months, he even advertised on TV, and his products have completely dominated the entire northern market.

Some people have estimated his wealth, which is no less than those who take on national projects, so naturally some people introduce him to potential partners.

It's a pity that the two generations of men in the Ji family don't seem to be in a hurry to get married. Ji Duo didn't care at first, and now Ji Ze doesn't care either. He is only focused on his career.

But the little girl from the Ji family is really pretty and not shy. Ji Ze’s childhood friends also like to play with her when they come.

But while amusing the children, he did not forget to take advantage of Ji Ze. After all, Nian Nian called Ji Ze brother, but according to age, they should call him uncle.

In the end, Ji Ze chased everyone away. After that, he took the apple and teased the little girl, "Come on, Nian Nian, call me brother."

Little Nian Nian said that this question was too difficult and she didn’t know how to do it.

He pointed to the photo of Ji Duo on the tea table and asked, "What about Dad? Will Dad do that?"

This time the little girl made two "boo" sounds, and the pronunciation finally resembled the real thing.

Ji Ze teased her to call him brother again, but Nian Nian couldn't call out. She got anxious and rushed over to bite the apple, but failed and started crying.

"How old is she? How could she call herself that?" The old man quickly picked up his granddaughter and glared at her fiercely.

Ji Ze was embarrassed, but as soon as he left, the old man used a spoon to scrape apple puree to feed his granddaughter. He looked around to see that there was no one around, and whispered, "Nian Nian, call me grandpa."

Unfortunately, by the time Ji Duo's troops finished their work, the little girl had only learned to call dad and mom, and called everyone dad and mom.

So Ji Duo came to pick up his daughter and as soon as he entered the house, he heard his daughter clearly shout to his nephew: "Ba."
