I've already promised the kid I'd let him become a detective, so you two don't need to worry about this anymore."

Hearing her father's words and thinking about her husband's sacrifice, Hu Ping was terrified of losing her only son.

But since Old Master Wu had already spoken, she dared not refute him, and covered her mouth, bursting into tears.

Meanwhile, Old Mrs. Wu, who was standing to the side, also spoke up directly.

"No, I don't agree. Being a criminal investigator is such a dangerous profession, I can't trust you to do it."

I have already given my country a son; I cannot lose my precious grandson.”

As she spoke, the old woman couldn't help but start sobbing.

She said to Old Master Wu,

"If a child wants to be a policeman, he doesn't necessarily have to go to the police station where his father worked."

You know how dangerous it is to be a low-level criminal investigator, don't you?

Since Mingcheng wants to be a policeman, why don't you just arrange a position for him in the Ministry of Police?

Faced with his grandmother's opposition and his mother's tears, Wu Mingcheng didn't know what to do.

At this moment, Old Master Wu's authoritative voice rang out.

"Mingcheng finally came back, and he was supposed to be happy,

What kind of behavior is it for the two of you to be crying and sobbing in front of the child?

Furthermore, you shouldn't have this idea. My grandson is the apple of my eye, but what about other people's grandsons?

As my grandson, I need to be even stricter with him (Li Hao), and send him to more demanding positions to hone his skills.

The old woman then stopped crying and began to speak.

"But isn't being a detective too dangerous? Even if you don't care about me, you should at least think about Pingping!"

I know how hard it has been for Pingping to raise Mingcheng alone all these years.

How could she bear to let Mingcheng become a criminal investigator, living in constant fear at home?

Grandpa Wu spoke to Hu Ping, Wu Mingcheng's mother.

"Pingping, it seems that you two don't quite understand Mingcheng's usual state?"

In my opinion, with this kid's skills and intelligence, what could possibly happen to him?

Moreover, Mingcheng's ability to start from the bottom will greatly benefit his future development.

Chapter 181 Final Agreement

Then, with a single, decisive word, disregarding the objections of the two, Old Master Wu made the final decision.

"Alright, I've made up my mind. I'll respect Mingcheng's decision; he can do whatever he wants."

Furthermore, Pingping, you don't need to worry too much. As the eldest grandson of the Wu family, Mingcheng naturally has to shoulder the responsibilities of the Wu family and will be a pillar of the family in the future.

He has already promised me that he won't be a frontline police officer forever.

At this moment, Wu Mingcheng also spoke up.

"Grandma, Mom, I know you two are just trying to help me and don't want me to be in danger."

But when I applied to the People's Public Security University of China, I wanted to become a glorious policeman like my father.

Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and won't let you worry about me.

After hearing Wu Mingcheng's assurance, Hu Ping and Old Mrs. Wu felt much better.

After all, this is something his son has insisted on for so many years.

As a mother, she should also understand and support her son Wu Mingcheng's choice.

So, Hu Ping spoke up.

"Mingcheng, you're an adult now, with your own thoughts. Mom supports your ideas and respects your choices."

But you must be careful. Mom doesn't want to experience the pain of losing a loved one like your father did when he sacrificed his life.

Wu Mingcheng was overjoyed to hear that his mother had agreed to his idea of ​​becoming a policeman.

But he also empathized, understanding that his mother was thinking of him, and that the feeling of losing a loved one was too painful.

After her husband's death, Wu Mingcheng was practically her only solace in this world.

So he said solemnly,

"Mom, don't worry,"

Grandma Wu was worried about her precious grandson and didn't want him to be in such a dangerous environment.

On the other hand, it was also because she considered that her daughter-in-law had raised Wu Mingcheng alone all these years, which was extremely difficult for her.

Since Hu Ping had already agreed, Old Mrs. Wu naturally had nothing to say.

She then said with a smile

"Mingcheng is the best wherever he goes. Grandma doesn't ask you to achieve great things, she only hopes you can be safe and sound."

Alright, it's such a happy day, don't look so gloomy, everyone cheer up!

Then, she arranged for Wu Mingcheng to start eating dumplings.

"Mingcheng, hurry up and eat the dumplings Grandma made for you, they'll get cold and won't taste the same,"

As she spoke, Old Mrs. Wu picked up a dumpling and placed it in the bowl in front of Wu Mingcheng.

Hu Ping then composed herself and said with a smile,

"Dad, you should eat too. Mingcheng, you're so lucky! Your grandma made the dumpling filling herself today since you came back."

The dumplings I made this time have lots of filling and thin wrappers. I knew you'd like these. Hurry up and try them!

Wu Mingcheng picked up a dumpling from the bowl and put it in his mouth. Sure enough, the dumpling skin was only a thin layer.

The fresh meat filling inside the dumplings is tender and juicy, making each bite incredibly delicious.

He nodded repeatedly as he spoke.

"Grandma, these dumplings are so delicious! They taste just like they did when I was little."

Upon hearing Wu Mingcheng's words, Grandma immediately smiled and said,

"Isn't it delicious? You can't find this taste anywhere else. Eat more!"

Don't worry, there's more if you need more. If you want more, just come back often, and Grandma will make you some.

As she spoke, she placed several more dumplings into Wu Mingcheng's bowl.

At this moment, the mother, Hu Ping, spoke up from the side.

"I'm really lucky to have eaten such delicious dumplings made by Mom, all thanks to Mingcheng."

Do you remember when your third uncle went back to Beijing to report on his work last time? He wanted to eat dumplings that your grandma used to make, but she didn't make them for him.

Elder Wu, seated at the head of the table, also spoke up.

"That's right, I've benefited from Mingcheng's influence too,"

At this moment, Old Mrs. Wu said,

"How can he be more important than my precious grandson? He wants to eat my dumplings? No way!"

The old man, sitting in the main seat, burst into laughter upon hearing the grandmother's words; the difference in treatment was just too obvious!

"Hahahahahahahahaha,"

Wu Mingcheng and his mother stayed at Qingyuntang until evening before driving home.

Originally, Old Madam Wu wanted Wu Mingcheng to stay at Qingyun Hall for one night.

However, Wu Mingcheng was thinking of visiting Group Six tomorrow to see Zheng Yimin, Da Zeng, and Ji Jie, and also to finalize some matters regarding his work unit.

So he didn't stay at Qingyun Hall, but went home with his mother.

After returning home, Hu Ping, the mother, went straight to her husband's memorial tablet and lit an incense stick.

All I heard was her muttering,

"Yuanhua, our son has grown up now, and he can stand tall and proud."

You probably didn't expect this, but now your son wants to start his life in the place where you used to work.

If you have a spirit in heaven, you must protect our son, turning misfortune into good fortune and disaster into auspiciousness.”

After she finished speaking, she called Wu Mingcheng to the living room.

The two sat close together, the mother, Hu Ping, stroking Wu Mingcheng's face.

He said with a smile,

"Son, before I knew it, you're about to graduate from university. It's been so long since I've sat down quietly to look at you like this."

Wu Mingcheng also felt the same way at this moment, and realized how hard his mother had worked as a woman all these years.

He said to his mother,

"Mom, you've worked so hard raising me all these years on your own. From now on, you don't have to worry about your son anymore."
