Chapter 264 Generous Isatis
Xia Songlan had just started working and was very busy having to welcome new students to school and adapt to the work in the hospital.
From then on, all the admission procedures and processes for the children were completed by Ning Jingmo.
On the first day of school on September 9, Xia Songlan originally wanted to send the children off, but she had a speech in the first class of the day and could not get away.
We had to agree to pick them up in the afternoon.
Ning Ziqing carried a small schoolbag and said, "Mom, Dad has already taken us to school. I can take my sister with me."
Ning Tianya, wearing a pretty little skirt, nodded, "Mom, we are all elementary school students, you don't have to worry. You work hard, my brother and I can take care of ourselves."
As he spoke, he took out two meal tickets from his schoolbag and shook them, "Dad gave us meal tickets and asked me to keep them. My brother and I will go to the restaurant for lunch at noon.
Dad also set the alarm for us, and we will go to school by ourselves in the afternoon."
Ning Ziqing interrupted, "Mom, we are all accustomed to the time now, and we promise not to be late, don't worry!"
Xia Songlan didn't expect Ning Jingmo to be so thoughtful. She completely ignored these details.
She was so busy with school and hospital matters during this period that she had no time to take care of the children.
She approached Ning Jingmo with some guilt, tugging at the corner of his clothes, "Jingmo..."
Ning Jingmo smiled and patted her head, "Silly girl, I should be the one feeling guilty, after all, I only stayed at home for a few days.
There are still many busy days left, and it all depends on you alone. I should thank you."
The fast-paced work and study life was put on the agenda. After a week of adjustment, everyone gradually adapted.
When Xia Songlan has no classes, she will go to send the children with Ning Jingmo.
The two little ones are very independent. We don't need to worry about their homework at all, they can complete it by themselves.
They don't need help going to and from school or to the cafeteria to get food, as the guards at the compound gate and the cafeteria staff all know them.
The two little guys are very sweet-talkers and can talk to anyone they meet. Everyone likes them and takes care of them.
Each child has a house key hanging around his neck, and they can open the gate of their home by standing on tiptoe.
It seemed as if overnight, the children had grown up and become independent.
The weekend was originally the day Ning Jingmo was supposed to go back home. The night before, Xia Songlan was particularly enthusiastic and pestered him for love several times.
Ning Jingmo was also reluctant to leave, but he received good news the next morning - he needed to attend a three-month short-term training in Beijing.
In addition, two staff officers must be selected to accompany him in the training.
Ning Jingmo immediately thought of Staff Officer Zhao and Staff Officer Qian.
When Staff Officers Zhao and Qian heard the good news, they jumped for joy.
Staff Officer Zhao was delighted, "Old Ning is really loyal. We didn't have the chance to participate in several training sessions before.
With this training, we two brothers may be able to achieve our goals if we put in some effort.”
Staff Officer Qian was also dancing with joy, "Needless to say, we have gained a lot and learned a lot from working with Lao Ning for the past two years.
I think after Lao Ning finishes the training, he may make further progress.”
Not to mention how happy they were, Xia Songlan was also extremely happy when she heard the news.
Even the two little guys were running around Ning Jingmo happily.
Three days later, Staff Officers Qian and Zhao arrived in Beijing exhausted and stayed in the guesthouse that Ning Jingmo had arranged for them in advance.
In the evening, the two of them came to visit Ning Jingmo, carrying special local specialties they had brought with them.
As soon as they entered Ning Jingmo's yard, they found everything new and interesting.
Without any hesitation, he visited the yard from top to bottom, inside and outside, and every room.
Staff Officer Qian exclaimed, "This is where people live. I really admire Comrade Song Lan. He usually lives in such a good place. How could he be willing to live in that shabby dormitory with you?"
Staff Officer Zhao also praised it in a series of comments, "Look, here they not only have ceiling fans, floor fans, but also table fans.
There is no need to use honeycomb coal, just use a gas tank.
Oh, there is a radiator, so this winter will definitely not be cold."
He then scanned the appliances in the room again, "Refrigerator, color TV, washing machine, tape recorder, everything."
Then he said to Ning Jingmo unceremoniously: "Old Ning, turn on your TV and let me see it."
Ning Jingmo poured a glass of water for them both and actually turned on the TV.
The two of them lay in front of the TV, scrambling to use the remote control to turn on the TV.
Staff Officer Qian was so excited that he could hardly speak. He looked around and said, "Lao Ning, how much is this TV? I will buy one for my wife when I get home.
My wife has wanted it for a long time. The signal of the black and white TV in our house is extremely poor. Every time we watch TV, our eldest son needs to go to the roof to hold the antenna to receive the signal. "
Staff Officer Zhao pushed him and said, "Hasn't your black and white TV been bought for only three years? How come it's not good anymore? We don't even have a black and white TV at home."
As he said that, he put his hand on the TV and said unceremoniously, "Are you a buddy, Lao Ning? Why don't you let me take this TV away? You can buy a new one later. It's old anyway."
Ning Jingmo shook his head, "I can't be the head of this household. Song Lan bought that color TV two years ago. If you want it, ask her opinion."
Staff Officer Zhao clapped his hands and said, "Hey, you should have told me earlier. If you knew it was bought by woad, I wouldn't have said anything nice to you.
Songlan is much more generous than you. I guarantee that once I mention this, Songlan will be happy to give me the TV."
Really talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
Xia Songlan's voice came from outside, "Oh, you're all here. I was trying to catch up, but I ended up behind you."
She was carrying bags of fruits in her hands, and Ning Jingmo went over and took them.
Staff Officer Zhao patted the TV without hesitation and said, "Song Lan, I heard from Lao Ning that you bought this TV, do you still want it?
If you don't want it, I can take it back. We don't even have a TV at home. Please give me your broken TV."
Xia Songlan didn't hesitate at all, "Okay, move it out when you leave." I haven't watched the TV twice since I bought it. It's always been on at home.
If you really want, move back.
My children are in primary school now and are very busy with their studies, so I don’t want them to watch TV, which will affect their studies.”
Staff Officer Zhao smiled so hard that you could see his back teeth.
He said to Staff Officer Qian proudly, "Look, let me tell you, Songlan is much more generous than Lao Ning. Lao Ning even said he is not the head of the family, but look at Songlan, he gave it to me right away."
Staff Officer Qian really regretted that he had spoken too late, otherwise he would have gotten an almost brand new large color TV. He slapped his head in regret.
At dinner that night, Staff Officer Zhao pointed to the piano in the living room and asked, "Old Ning, is it you who can play this piano or is it Woandan who can play it?"
Ning Tianya raised her hand and said, "My mom and I both know how to play the piano."
Staff Officer Qian was even more surprised. He had never heard Ning Jingmo say that Xia Songlan and Ning Tianya could play the piano before.
After a moment's pause, he urged Ning Tianya, "Tianya, go play a song for Uncle Qian and let him listen.
I have never seen a child who can play the piano at such a young age. "
