Chapter 645 A blessing in disguise?
"Come on, have a drink with me!"
Ning Yuan and Ning Wei looked at the wine glasses in front of them, glanced at each other, and picked up their glasses without hesitation.
He took the initiative to extend his wine glass and touched the bottom edge of Ning Wanli's glass.
The father and his two sons drank it all in one gulp!
After the wine glasses were placed on the table, Ning Wei quickly stood up, picked up the freshly opened bottle of Moutai on the table, and filled the empty glasses of the three people.
At this time, before Ning Wanli could say anything, he heard footsteps coming from the kitchen.
Zhong Yan came over carefully with a rag in her hand and a bowl of egg white noodle dumpling soup.
Ning Yuan instinctively stood up and wanted to go over to help, but Zhong Yan directly pushed him aside.
"Go away, don't make trouble, just sit there!"
Having said that, he carefully placed the soup bowl on the table, wiped his hands, and sat down.
After taking a quick glance, he spoke to Ning Wanli with an unhappy expression.
"Why are you in such a hurry to drink? My sons haven't even had a bite of food yet, it's bad for their stomachs! You are just you~~"
"Hey, Mom, it's okay, Mom, my brother and I have already eaten in there!"
Ning Wei saw that his mother was about to explode, so he quickly stopped her and spoke.
Ning Yuan did the same, using chopsticks to pick up a piece of soft and tender stewed chicken leg and put it into his mother's bowl, and then said.
"We've just eaten a few bites of food, Mom, hurry up and eat something!"
After seeing her two sons speak, Zhong Yan walked around Ning Wanli and looked down at the chicken leg in the bowl.
However, the next second, Zhong Yan picked up the chicken leg and gave it back to Ning Yuan.
Then he passed the other chicken leg to Ning Wei.
"You two should eat chicken legs to nourish yourself. Mom is not hungry and likes to eat neck meat!"
Ning Yuan and Ning Wei didn't go against Zhong Yan's intentions.
Each of them picked up a chicken leg and finished it in three or five bites.
I have to say, this chicken soup is really delicious.
There are no fast-growing chickens these days, only free-range old hens!
The meat is so much more tender than the chickens we have eaten in later generations!
In fact, Ning Yuan and Ning Wei were not really hungry. After all, the food provided there was very good.
But Zhong Yan couldn't resist picking up food for the two brothers.
Ning Yuan had no choice. This is it. There is a kind of hunger called your mother thinks you are hungry!
After eating a lot, he finally felt a little better.
When Ning Yuan saw Ning Wanli pick up the wine glass, he quickly put down his chopsticks and picked up the wine glass in front of him.
Ning Wei reacted quickly, imitating his elder brother and lifting himself up. Then, the two brothers reached out to their father Ning Wanli.
After clinking their glasses, the father and his two sons drank it all in one gulp.
Ning Wanli put down his wine glass and waved his hand when he saw Ning Wei was about to stand up to pour wine again.
"Too much of this stuff isn't good for fun, so that's enough for today. You two brothers, drink less from now on!"
Ning Wei sat down angrily and nodded with Ning Yuan.
"That's great. I, Old Ning, never thought I'd live to see my two sons drink with me."
Looking at Ning Wanli sitting on the east side, his face was full of emotion.
Ning Yuan didn't know what to say, and as for Ning Wei, he was even more dumbfounded.
After Zhong Yan put away the wine glass in front of Ning Wanli, she served him a bowl of soup and said with some complaints and some heartache.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You're going to be a grandfather soon, so say something nice!"
Ning Wanli smiled, patted Zhong Yan's arm gently, and then said.
"Yes, say something nice, haha! Ning Yuan, Ning Wei, do you two know how big an impact what you've done these days has had?"
It was a rare occasion for them to be addressed by their full names. Ning Yuan and Ning Wei couldn't help but shudder, sat up straight and looked at their father.
Seeing the two boys shaking their heads, Ning Wanli did not scold them. Instead, he sighed and relaxed.
"Forget it, it's better not to know. Anyway, it can be considered a blessing in disguise! Dayuan, you're doing a great job at the Ministry of Economic Affairs, so I won't say much. Xiaowei, you need to find a proper job!"
Ning Wei looked at his father, obviously still not quite understanding.
"What have you been doing these days since you returned to the Forbidden City? Do you really think I don't know? You must be a bit right and wrong in your actions. Those senior leaders above have a good impression of you. Otherwise, how could you get away with it so easily after taking so many lives this time?"
Ning Wanli scolded his youngest son.
Although it was a reprimand, it actually contained a hint of praise.
Which of those big guys did not emerge from the chaotic old society, with mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
They actually don't feel too restricted or bound by the so-called laws.
On the contrary, it is this kind of guy who is really brave, has a sense of right and wrong, and has real skills, who makes them particularly pleasing to the eye.
Why is it said to be a blessing in disguise? The main reason is that Ning Wei showed his talent this time and could no longer hide it, and caught the eyes of some bigwigs.
After listening to Ning Wanli's words, Ning Wei did not refute, but he also had no intention of admitting his mistake. He just looked at his father.
Ning Wanli also knew his youngest son's temper, so he didn't get angry, but continued speaking.
"Someone's asking for you. Join the army. You're not old enough to join a company, but you'll be qualified enough to serve as an orderly at headquarters, doing odd jobs and practicing with them!"
After hearing this, Ning Wei's eyes lit up and he said excitedly to his father.
"Really? Dad, can I join the army now? When can I leave?"
The young people at this time grew up listening to the heroic deeds of those generals. Moreover, their families were all military families. Under the influence of childhood, they all had an extremely longing for the army.
In addition, in recent years, news of frictions of varying sizes has been heard from time to time in the surrounding areas.
These young people are really eager to achieve great things!
Therefore, even though Ning Wei had a happy family at that time, his face was still full of excitement and joy when he heard that he could join the army!
After hearing this, Ning Yuan was a little surprised, but he felt relieved.
As Ning Wei's skills become stronger and stronger, his murderous nature becomes more and more serious.
If you don't polish it properly, there will probably be big problems.
For Ning Wei, the army is his best whetstone and the place where he can best realize his value.
Ning Wanli nodded after seeing Ning Wei's appearance.
"On the seventh of next month, in the southwest region, the C Army will come to pick us up. You come with them. Remember, when you get to the army, don't mention my name or act like a big shot. Just train honestly. If you bring back any unpleasant news, I'll personally go to the army and deal with you!"
Ning Wei nodded and said without hesitation.
"Don't worry, Dad. I will do my best in the army and won't bring shame to you and my mom!"
