The couple plans to return to China on January 10, and New Year's Eve is on January 21. The 11-day period is very relaxed, allowing their family to go home slowly.
At the end of the year, things on the school side have basically been dealt with. On the professional side, there are two more important social gatherings. Therefore, they set aside ten days for farewells and packing.
As for the rest of the invitations, they all declined.
And before this, there is another very important thing, that is the third birthday of Full and Toto.
The first day of the first month, the New Year's Day in China, is also a day when Duoduo turns three years old.
On this day, the couple is not going to go to any entertainment party, they want to accompany the two children in a foreign country in the United States, and have a good day.
Because after today, in the next few days, the couple will have no time to take the children out to play.
The couple took the two brothers and sisters to the famous children's play area in the city center to play for most of the day, and then took them to a western restaurant to eat their two brothers and sisters' favorite hamburger steak.
In the afternoon, I took the brothers and sisters to the bustling shopping street, bought a lot of toys and books they liked, and then went to the streets they frequented for a while, and finally the family returned home satisfied. .
In the following days, the couple attended two important gatherings, one was a state banquet-level banquet led by the leader of the United States, which specially entertained their representatives from various countries.
There is also an academic sharing meeting held by the highest university in the United States. This is almost the world's top scientific research exchange meeting. Naturally, the participants are the most powerful and outstanding scientific research leaders from all countries.
And this recognition is not selected by the countries themselves, but selected by the world scientific research team. This selection criteria depends not only on the achievements of scientific researchers in their own countries, but also on the influence and value of scientific research results.
Therefore, people who have scientific research achievements are not eligible to participate.
The achievements of Mu Yiren and Qin Mingsheng are obvious to all. Their scientific research achievements are not only practical and extensive, but most importantly, they are convenient and advanced. The research and development ideas can be said to be far ahead and very representative.
Coupled with the behavior of the couple in the United States in the past two years, not to mention the scientific research value created.
The status and status of the representatives of this world-class scientific research exchange meeting are self-evident. As long as the scientific research scholars who can be invited to participate, the international value will immediately rise.
Therefore, it is conceivable that after Mu Yiren and Qin Mingsheng participated in this exchange meeting, their identities changed.
The husband and wife were busy with academic exchanges, and they were not idle with Duoduo. Accompanied by their nanny, the two brothers and sisters were also saying goodbye to their little friends one by one.
In the past two years, the two brothers and sisters have also made many friends. Originally, the two of them are smarter than ordinary children, and because of their good looks, they are very popular with children in the residential area.
Not only Chinese compatriots, but more children from the United States, full of calm and good temper, a lot of lively and cute, everyone likes to play and read books with their two brothers and sisters.
When the couple finished their work and were about to start packing, they suddenly discovered that there were a lot of gadgets at home, which were all parting gifts from the neighbors to the brothers and sisters.
"It seems that our two children are very popular." Mu Yiren praised with a smile.
Qin Mingsheng raised the corners of his mouth and joked, "Well, much better than their parents."
The two of them have lived here for two years, but if you really think about it, they haven't even gotten to know the surrounding neighbors, let alone make friends.
Maybe the two of them together knew more neighbors than two siblings.
As a result, their family's luggage added another package full of various gadgets. Looking at the eight suitcases that were finally packed out, the couple felt ashamed.
I really don’t know how to pack it. When I packed it up, I was shocked. When their family came to the United States, they only had three or four luggages.
This does not include some miscellaneous items that were put into the system by the Muyi people. These eight suitcases are still as simplified as possible, and there is no way to continue to delete them.
After all, after returning to China, they have to give out a lot of gifts to their relatives and friends, so they have to pretend to be on the surface.
In the 73rd year of China, on January 10, the couple took their children and set foot on the road to return home.
In the early morning of the next day, the family arrived in the capital of China, and the person who came to pick them up was Secretary Gao, who was familiar to the couple.
"Professor Qin, Professor Mu, welcome home!"
After Secretary Gao finished his welcome speech, the people in the back row began to applaud enthusiastically, and the applause was particularly clear in this small airport.
There was a slight surprise in the hearts of the couple, but they didn't expect their family to return to the country, and there would be a welcome pomp.
At this time, two comrades came up and tied big red flowers to Qin Mingsheng and Mu Yiren respectively, and they looked very happy.
The couple looked at each other silently, trying to suppress the corners of their mouths that they wanted to lift.
This picture is really festive and funny, there is an inexplicable feeling that the two of them are going to worship each other, and there is only a red silk between the two.
"thanks."
After a brief greeting, the family got on a special car and went to the VIP hotel for a rest. Today and tomorrow, the family doesn't have to expect to be able to return to the provincial capital.
Because their husband and wife, as representatives of the country, must first report to the top leaders after returning to the country, and then attend the corresponding reception banquet.
You can't go in two days.
When the couple returned to China, it happened to be the end of the Chinese lunar calendar, and a lot of work was in the final stage, so the couple caught up with a wave of awards activities.
At this commendation ceremony, the couple were elected as academicians, which is the highest academic title in science and technology established by the state and the highest honor given to a scientist by the state.
In addition, the couple also received material rewards at the same time, but they didn't have much interest in money or materials, and finally converted into a set of courtyard houses in the capital.
Qin Mingsheng doesn't think much about these rewards, so everything follows his daughter-in-law's wishes.
Because of the thinking of later generations, Muyi people like some fixed assets with value-added significance, such as land and real estate.
No matter where their family goes in the future, if they have their own place to stay, just thinking about it makes me feel very happy, so there are not too many assets such as real estate.
On January 14, the family got on the train back to the provincial capital.
Because a set of courtyard houses was acquired under the temporary name, the family's trip was delayed for a day, and the relevant procedures were completed before departure.
On the morning of January 17, the family finally stood on the homeland of the provincial capital.
